Geocaching Mingo 2025

 

We met a lot of other geocachers at different places 
during the geocaching weekend in Colby Kansas








This one gave us some trouble because the lock didn't open
the way we thought it should.

Signal the Frog is geocaching's Mascot
He was at all the events


The first night's event was in the top of a very large barn
at the historical museum site




Williams Brothers of Hastings moved 
the massive barn to the museum grounds.

Some of the trickier geocaches we found

We had to answer questions about this cliff northeast
of Colby to complete a geocache.

Mary found most of them.
