Did you know? The very first Cache was placed in Oregon's Mt. Hood Territory on May 3, 2000 and this started the buzz of "GPS stash hunting" which in ten years has grown in extreme popularity.

GPS adventurers…On your Mark!  Oregon's Mt. Hood Territory has 3 Geocaching Challenges starting June 25, 2010 in the cities of Canby, Estacada and North Clackamas. Find a specific number of their 10 Caches to receive a numbered commemorative Geocoin. One of the city challenges includes the original first Cache, a popular ‘Find’ to log into any geocacher's records. Want to learn more about Geocaching?
