Hey all you GPS wielding rock hounds!
I just got my first Groundspeak trackable item activated today...
A brand spankin' new 2006 USA geocoin!
I decided to call it: "Rock'n the Free World"
www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=327163
I plan to let a bunch of my friends log it first at a geocaching event here and then I want to send it to somebody on RTH as it's first real "mission".
Of course, just mailing it would be boring. I am going to send it via-geo. It will hitch hike with other cachers until it gets close enough for the recipient to retrieve it from a cache near them.
I will release it in my airport travel bug agency cache here in Victoria (GCT2N4) and it will hitch hike with other cachers on their journeys to (eventually) appear in a cache near you!
The secondary goal of this TB will be to collect pictures of cool rocks in it's gallery along the way, which i'm sure RTH'ers would have no problem accomplishing.
If you're interested then add TBRR7J to your watchlist and declare your intent to recieve it on this thread using your exact caching name & PM me your home co-ords (aprox) or the waypoint number for a cache close enough to your home to base the goal on.
Once you get it, you will have to change the mission tag to it's new goal & release it into a cache that gets visited frequently enough to get it going in it's new direction to the next recipient.
Only GPS users with an account at geocaching.com can participate, but the good news is it's free to join!
