Geocaching in the Pacific Northwest – a Pictorial

Geocaching in the Pacific Northwest means being ready for anything – rain, sun, heights, narrow trails, muddy paths, creeks. You name it, it'll be out there, and if you plan on finding these little treasures all year long, go prepared. I've been writing another post about geocaching in general so I thought I'd tease you first with a few photos of some recent caches I've gone looking for.

Uh oh! Watch out for wild animal poop bombs in the middle of the trail!

Kathy is a FB friend who came to Portland on business so I got to meet her in person. We spent an afternoon seeking waterfalls along the Columbia Gorge and threw in a cache or two along the way.

It's down this way... an almost-hidden sandy path at the coast — It’s down this way… an almost-hidden sandy path at the coast
