About This Item

On May 3, 2000, a five-gallon bucket was placed right at this very spot by Dave Ulmer, containing Delorme Topo USA and 2 CD Roms, a cassette recorder, a "George of the Jungle" VHS tape, a Ross Perot book, 4 $1 bills, a slingshot handle, and a very famous can of beans (now the O.C.B. T.B.!) The coordinates were then listed on the Internet and modern-day Geocaching was born.

Although that original bucket was severely damaged by an Oregon Road Crew mower and is no longer around, TEAM 360 and many other concerned geocachers recognized the importance of that event which happened here and dedicate this ORIGINAL STASH TRIBUTE PLAQUE.

While preparing the cement foundation of the Original Stash Tribute Plaque, TEAM 360 found geocaching gold: the first-ever trade item, the O.C.B.!

    Es wird mal wieder Zeit, das Handy etwas aufzuräumen. Viele Bilder von entdeckten TBs oder Coins haben sich in der letzten Zeit hier angesammelt. Gern locken wir jetzt das Entdecken derselben. Leider kann ich nicht mehr genau sagen, wo und wann wir diesen TB oder diese Coin entdeckt haben, in einem Cache-Final oder bei Freunden oder auf einem Event.
    Wir wünschen allen TBs / Coins eine gute Weiterreise.
