Current Goal

This trackable has the modest goal to circulate more than five years and to be moved by at least 25 cachers. That is a rate of five drops per year for five years.  

No permission is needed to leave the U.S.  While in the U.S., please drop it in a Premium Member only OR a rural cache near a busy trail or road. Do not place it in an urban cache or abandon it at a caching event where there is no security.  Transport the bug in the original plastic bag for as long as the bag lasts; the bag keeps the trackable clean, protects the number and prevents tangling with other items.  Otherwise, take the trackable anywhere you wish.

Trackable photos are appreciated and will be re-posted here.

About This Item

Crystal City is a city in and the county seat of Zavala County. The population was 7,138 at the 2010 census. The town is on the edge of the Chihuahuan Desert in southwest Texas. It continues to exist because of the happy confluence of a railroad and the abundance of water in the form of wells and springs. The county is far enough south that winter vegetables can be grown for northern markets. Onions were the first crop introduced, but spinach replaced the onion crop and now Crystal City is “Spinach Capital of the World.”

The first annual spinach festival took place in 1936 but was suspended during WW II and not resumed again until 1982.  The Spinach Festival maintains an office in the downtown. Also downtown, in front of the city hall, is a statue of Popeye. It was erected in 1937, with the blessing of the sailorman’s creator.
