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."

"I started having tags made at the beginning of 2009 and this is my 14th of now 16 tags. Needless to say I believe in the quality and consistency of these little buggers. It is a good artful release and the tag community is fantastic and fun to communicate with. This tag was a labor of love from me and the designer. It took a while to get it "right" but the tag team worked with me every inch of the way and the final product is STELLAR ! Much thanks to the tag team at Pathtags and my designer Jamie. You could even say it glows ! "

"Thank you so very much to Pathtags and the designer of the tag, Sunset Tags. The wonderful art of the tag is incredible. This tag is so much better than we had expected. We had fast service from both Pathtags and Sunset Tags. The detail of the work is awesome, and we are proud to leave this signature tag in the geocaches we find. "

"i got my pathtags the other day and they were better than i thought they could be. Thank you so much."

"I was nervous about having my first tag made, but once I received it in the mail, WOW! I adore it. And it seems popular so far with the trades I have been participating in. This is only the first of many, I am sure of it!"

"I just wanted to send you a note to let you know I received my pathtags and how overwhelmingly satisfied I am with them. They came out even better than I expected they would considering the problems we were having getting the template right. I can't wait to start trading them at events and on the trails. I will definitely keep you in mind when I am ready for my 2008 pathtag, as well as my wife's pathtag."

"This is our 2nd tag and we ordered maybe a month or two after our first only because we were still trying to decide what we wanted to do or it would have been sooner. We put some ideas together and sent them to Texas Dreamweaver and for the 2nd time he hit it out of the park! Took our ideas and then turned them into something even better than what we knew could be done. From there it was seamless we sent it in to pathtags got the blueprint which was exact the first time and a month later just as promised (arrived 2nd day in the two week window given to us; and that was even during the Thanksgiving Holiday!) they were in our mailbox! They were even better than we thought they would be, finished and in person! Instantly we had a lot of trade requests and have enjoyed every minute of it. We are working on our next tag now; hope to have it submitted in a week. Thanks to all of you that made this happen! cuckootown"

"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!"

"I brought up my Japanese Manhole Series on the forums just to see if there was an interest. WHOA!! I wasn't ready for all the Kudos and WANTS I received. I've got the first two in for production and 3 more ready to go! Getting initial feedback from my peers was an inspiration and motivator to get my series in the works! As Fakk2 put it, "A manhole cover is nothing but a pathtag on steroids!" THANK YOU one and all!"
