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."

"Creating a Pathtag is something I'd been thinking about for a couple of years. Once I decided to really pursue it, everything moved along very smoothly. Yesterday, my Pathtags arrived. I'm so pleased with the outcome that I have already begun to ponder how I could make an even better one!"

"Rocky Glen Grommets are absolutely delighted with their Curry Quarry Emu - midnightgothicangel and the production team have done a magnificent job - our shipment arrived earlier than we expected and Quarry Emu is already in circulation around the globe!"

Rocky Glen Grommets

"Our first tag, and I am VERY impressed by the quality. My daughter and I share the initials KFE, so that has become our caching signature. When I found the Pathtags website I knew then and there I HAD to make a KFE Pathtag. It is something we will cherish forever and share with our caching friends abroad."

KFEdaddy2k

"I LOVE how this tag came out! The red lettering looks just like I wanted it to, and the white chainsaw seems to just pop out! This is the most detailed tag I've submitted, and it works very well for the dark atmosphere I wanted. "

TX Diva

"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!"
