The Yogi’s found this friendly little critter at the Tulsa Area Geocacher’s (“TAG”) annual Fall Fest at Lake Eufaula State Park here in Oklahoma. The critter was actually a cache.
About 160 or so geocachers from all over descended on the park for a weekend of socializing and finding caches. The main event is “hide and seek” where the cachers hide temporary caches and find other cacher’s temporary caches. It makes for a lot of finding caches. I think there were well over a 100 placed during the event. We didn’t hide one this year but we spent some time finding them.
The top right hand cache is actually a camo duct tape wallet. No, you weren’t supposed to keep it.
Here is one where having a walking stick came in handy
Yes, its a fake snake but I never stick my hand underneath a board anyway.
SuperPizzaBoy found a swing.
But just like lots of other things in life. Its not considered officially done until you have the tee shirt.
There were tons and tons of people who helped put this event on. I don’t know all of them but I appreciate their hard work. The event went very smoothly and everybody had a great time.
Have you ever tried geocaching?
Don’t know what it is? Here is Geocaching 101
Have I tried geocaching… um…
Well, we both know the answer to that one.
Glad you guys had fun!
It does look like a great time was had by all! Always enjoy reading about your family adventures — geocaching or otherwise! Hope your week is going well! Enjoy!

Great shots.
I’m with Sylvia, I too enjoy reading about you and your family get up to. Geocaching isn’t my cup of tea but to each his own:-)
Do you really have real snakes like that in Tulsa?
It was a fun time! I wasn’t surprised at the cache with the cache on it. I was about 30 ft away when OkiePaladin lifted it. It made him jump though! It was nice meeting you, although I had met you about 3 yrs ago in Bville at another TAG meeting.
Sounds like fun. The snake looks real and I would have thought it was if you didn’t say otherwise. Is that owl real?
Looks like your kind of event, Yogi. Love the pic of you and SPB – I just know Sweetie was saying “smile”!
Looks like a hoot 🙂
Paron the pun!
I would have still screamed at finding that fake snake though….
The owl is a cute cache. I’d go for that one. I’d stay away from the fake snake. It looks too real to me!
Nope, I still haven’t tried it, but I know it would be fun. Someday…
That critter is very cool. All your photos are terrific. It’s been so long since I’ve made regular blog rounds. I so appreciate you visiting my site. Hopefully, I’m going to have more free time very soon. SBP has grown!
