Pacific Lamprey Challenge

When the US Fish and Wildlife Department wanted to create a challenge cache series to educate the public about the Pacific Lamprey, they wanted to give participants something to remember the experience by. They were looking for a gift that would be meaningful to Geocachers, but which is available on a budget. They selected Pathtags!

The only way to get their beautiful tag is by completeing the cache series, located just Southwest of Olympia, Washington.

Here are all six mystery cache sites:

The overall goals of this program are:

Educate the public about the Pacific Lamprey
Educate the public about the Chehalis River Basin and the partners working to conserve/restore it.
Connect People With Nature via geocaching

Walton Robotics FIRST Team 2974 Pathtag

FIRST is a nonprofit organization founded by famed inventor Dean Kamen to promote Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) careers among young people. The vehicle for making this happen is a program of competitive robotics tournaments for children as young as Kindergarten through high school.

In 2013, Walton Robotics Team 2974 decided to do something special to leave a lasting impression on the people they "crossed paths with" at their competition. They created a Pathtag to give to other attendees!

Lisa Malice, one of the team's mentors, said "The pathtags were a big hit with the students because it was a unique give-away and because of the creative approach to spreading our message. Geocachers I met loved it, but the muggle families I talked with were really intrigued! We are starting to see log ins pop up on our tag map, including the ones I sent to Australia and Oregon to collectors who agreed to place them in geocaches."

"Such a Beautiful outcome! Thank you ever so much! These are simply gorgeous!"

"This is my first of many pathtags. From beginning to end it was awesome service - right from the great design team (Jamie and Jessie at "DesignbyJ&J") to the great crew at Pathtags. Everyone did their best to give me the finished product I wanted. Being a retired "Coastie" and having my son serving now this is a very special pathtag to me."

CoastieMike

"I have to agree with others here about the craftsmanship of these tags. I'm sure I'm biased, but these are everything I could possibly have hoped for. I had the design for a second tag in hand, and was waiting to see if I was satisfied with the first. I submitted the second design the same day I received the first. I'm now trading some, and leaving my mark in every cache that will hold a Pathtag. :)"

Ceolmhor

"We just received this tag and the quality and workmanship is fantastic. Love the tags-- We are both addicted. At least its not like gambling though. We spend money but we get something in return. "

"Wow! My latest tags arrived today & I am really impressed with how they turned out... but then again, I have generally found that my tags exceed expectations. It's always great to come home & find a Pathtag parcel waiting for me! Thanks."

"I loved Ver. 1 of this tag but Ver. 2 is a lot better. My name adds to my Ham Radio Call Sign and the custom ID on the back is fantastic, I love it. The colors are great, they represent two flags. Excellent work!!!"

VO2WW

"We received our tags before we actually got the email that they had shipped out. We are so happy with how our tags turned out. Now have to figure out what might be next."

WIHarleyCouple

"This tag came out awesome, it is so much better than I thought it would be."

Who Dey

"I am in awe of the wonderful job done in making this pathtag. This was my 5th design (2 for me, 2 for my wife, and 1 for my daughter), and I am always delighted at how well pathtags.com's blueprinting and production department make every detail stand out. I know I will be designing many more in the future."

DoubleTrouble

"I love to trade pathtags with other geocachers! My tag is "one way" I can share my faith."
