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."

"Woohoo...My tags arrived and they look awesome! Its amazing to see the work that goes into making a pathtag. I plan on making a fall and a winter version as well. All though cheap swag is nice for the kids, it's nice to have something affordable for the older kids ;o) thank you for a making geo caching even more fun!"

"The Red Deer 18th Morrisroe Scouts have been operating in Red Deer since 1972. This is our first tag. The quality is outstanding. We have been Geocaching since 2007. This pathtag allows to share a little about ourselves and gives us another reason to get outside and enjoy Scouting."

"When I received the tags, I was amazed how well the finer details had come out, and I have had other Pathtaggers comment as well! Keep up the great work. I have ordered tag number 5 and have the design for 6 and 7 ready to go as well."

"I got my tag about the time I was expecting it and was really impressed with how it looks. I can't wait to start trading. "

T-Hunter

"I just love all the color and detail that explode off these tiny bits of metal. One of the many great things about these tags are the reactions people submit when they find your tag in a cache. The life of a Pathtag doesn't end when they get shipped! I enjoy the trades and the excitement shared when someone discovers a tag. Thank you for your continued amazing work, attention to detail and the system that keeps the Pathtag community alive."

"I just want to say a huge THANK YOU! for the way you helped me with my first tag. I submitted my first design a few days ago and it obviously had a lot of problems, but you guys worked on it and made it so it can go into production. I was sure you will reject it first hand but instead you put so much time into it to make it work - I don't know how to thank you. You guys are awesome! Thank you so much!"

"This tag is a bit of a change from my earlier signature tags. I think it turned out great, and I hope it will be a good trader. I really enjoy pathtags, and most of all, I enjoy trading. Let the trading begin. Thanks!!"

R/Gbots

"An awesome experience on our first Pathtag. We were looking for a reasonably priced signature item for our team, and this Pathtag is perfect. The thing about this experience that has been above and beyond is that you can also trade with people all over the world. We're hooked on it now and have a good start on our collection."
