We received this great 20 Years of Geocaching set from Mr Muddy Dawgs sister "pupde". It is a great addition to our collection of Trackables! We started this hobby (obsession) in February 2006, about 6 years after the first cache was hidden. Can't imagine what geocaching was like in those very early years. We've seen lots of changes in the 15 years since we started.
Celebrate how it all began!
On May 3, 2000, a five-gallon bucket was placed in the woods outside of Portland, Oregon by Dave Ulmer. There were some random items in the bucket, including a sling shot, a VHS tape of "George of the Jungle", and a can of beans. The coordinates were then listed on a chat group of GPS enthusiasts and modern-day geocaching was born! Mike Teague was the original First to Find the very next day.
Over the past 20 years, much has changed. We have seen this amazing game evolve from one bucket in the woods to over 3 million geocaches hidden throughout the world. That seems like something to celebrate!
