Current Goal

Jack was released into the wild from Pasadena, California. His goal is to make it to the SOUTH DOWNS WAY CACHE in West Sussex, England. Our family, being half English, is hoping to meet up with Jack again the next time we visit the English side of the family.

UPDATE: We met up with Jack at Pile of Blogs and are going to retire him. Thanks to everyone who moved him around the world!

We're probably going to visit England later in the year or early next year, and we'd love it if geocachers can help him get there before we do! If he gets to the South Downs Cache, don't take him please. Jake (4 years old) and Elizabeth (1 year old) will both be looking forward to seeing him there.

Jack thanks you. He's looking forward to pub food and English weather.

    Thanks! We found him. He's been retired now. Thanks for all the help getting him half-way around the world for these last four years!

    We picked this up, which is why the last visitor didn't see him.

    Thanks to everyone that brought him around the world for us! Jack is going to retire now!

    We tried to leave him near Eastbourne but had a Did Not Find. This was the only other cache we had co-ords for. Sorry.

    Hi! We're going to be in Sussex in June and would love to reunite with Jack and bring him back home.

    Anybody heading South? If so, please try to get him as close to the South Downs as possible.
