The Perfect Geocaching Road Trip Formula - Rare Caches, Geotours & Friends

Описание: Ride with us into the pitch-black abyss of the Snoqualmie Tunnel to discover the secret formula for the ultimate Geocaching bucket list adventure!

What actually makes a geocaching adventure epic? Is it the rarity of the cache, the darkness of a 2-mile tunnel, or the company you keep? In this episode, Jay, Laura, and the crew head to the heart of Washington State for the legendary Going Ape 2025 Mega Event.

We’re breaking down the "Bucket List Formula" on a high-octane road trip that takes us from the echoing depths of the Snoqualmie Tunnel to find one of the rarest geocaches in the world: Mission 9: Tunnel of Light. But the adventure doesn't stop there! We double down on the fun by tackling the Issaquah GeoTour, meeting the giant troll Jakob Two Trees, and earning a coveted geocoin.

Whether you are a seasoned cacher or new to the hobby, this episode is packed with tips on how to spice up your own adventures.
