About This Item

 

 

This race was inspired by ZorroBarnes and launched at FTIC December 2025 in Columbia, Maryland. The main goal is to get to Geocaching HQ in Seattle, Washington, then back to an FTIC event in Columbia, Maryland again!

ZorroBarnes has been placing frogs in geocaches all over. From his profile: 

"Rubber ducks seem to be everywhere, especially on the dashboards of Jeeps. Recently at a geocaching event, I acquired a rubber duck from the host. That got me to wondering if there are rubber frogs? I did some investigation and encountered some of Signal the Frog’s cousins and they have rubber (probably vinyl or plastic) likenesses. I have obtained several dozen of these figures and have started to put them in caches as SWAG. Maybe some of them will travel to Geocaching HQ to visit their cousin."
