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.!
