💚 Geocache of the Week 💚

We know these geocaches pop up weekly, so what’s so interesting about this one? Maybe nothing at all, or perhaps something you would have never expected.

Expect the unexpected with our Geocache of the Week, 🎳 GC9G0TB! 🎳

Media: The first video shows a geocacher in a wooded setting standing next to a wooden barrel in the ground. They’re holding a rope with 7 bowling balls connected to it. They pull on the rope until all of the bowling balls are resting on the ground. The video cuts to the geocacher twisting the lid of the petling container off and removing the logbook. They then sign their name on the piece of paper. The first image shows the bowling balls connected by the rope lying on the dirt ground. In the second video, a geocacher approaches a metal cylinder that sticks up from the ground. They pull on a rope. Seven bowling balls are tied to the rope, with a gap in the rope between each ball. The geocacher pulls the rope until they pick up the final ball. They turn the bowling ball upside down; a petling container falls from one of the ball’s finger holes. They hold the petling to the camera. The second image shows a group of bowling balls in a pile on the ground next to the wooden barrel.

🕵️ Have you ever wanted to be a real-life spy? 🕵️

With geocaching, the possibilities are endless!

Video: A geocacher approaches a painted square on a cement wall. They hold a small toothpick-sized tool in their hand, and insert it into an unseen hole in the square. As they pull it out, a cylindrical container pops out of the wall at an angle. They slide the plastic cylinder out until there is an opening, and they grab the petling container that rests inside, before they show it off to the camera and give a thumbs-up.

Raise your hand if you would need a hint in order to find this cache. 🙋🙋🙋

Video: A geocacher stands next to multiple wooden logs standing upright, sticking out of the ground. The log closest to the geocacher stands about 3 feet tall, and the middle of it is wrapped in rope. The geocacher grabs the log and twists it counterclockwise to reveal the log is hollow and the cache container is inside.

Video: A dog walks up towards the camera on top of a moss covered log in the forest. The dog sniffs a collapsed portion of the log as the geocacher picks up a detached piece of the log to reveal the cache: a stegosaurus figurine zip-tied to a petling container.

📕 They say not to judge a book by its cover. 📕

Would you judge a geocache by its container? 🌷

Video by gc_anjoki.

Video: A geocacher approaches a PVC pipe that appears buried in the ground. They twist the lid and pull to reveal a chain of plastic toy tulips. At the end of the chain, there is a plastic geocache container.

💚 Geocache of the Week 💚

Some geocaches have a special place in our memories, but some really know how to “lock” in a place in our hearts. 💛🔒

“Bridge” the gap with us as we search for our Geocache of the Week, Bernardinai bridge V3.0 (GC2NFJD).

Images: The first image shows a geocacher's hand as they hold up the lid of a bison tube container with a rolled-up logsheet inside. In the background, an iron fence frames a scene of trees along the river. The second image shows multiple locks attached to an iron bridge. The third image shows a geocacher in a large coat standing on the bridge as they smile at the camera. Snow sits on the bridge and on top of the geocacher’s hood. The fourth image shows a close-up of a detailed lock attached to the bridge. A human figure has been molded onto the front of the lock.

⚡ Cache of a lifetime (batteries not included) ⚡

What gadget geocache have you been “shocked” to find? 😲

Video: A geocacher stands at a wooden birdhouse at the side of a parking lot. They touch a AA battery to two metal screws that stick out of the side of the birdhouse, lining up the positive side of the battery to the screw that has a plus sign and an arrow pointing downwards. The camera pans across the birdhouse and down to show a bison tube container attached to a string as it descends from inside the cache.
