Geocaching for Beginners - Episode 6 - What are Trackables? (#GCNW)

Published 2020-05-22
In this episode we discuss the importance of Trackables also known as TB's. What are Trackables? What do they look like? What do you do with a Trackable?

Feel free to follow to find out more on What is Geocaching? & Geocaching near me. I chat all things relating to the Geocaching app, geocaching.com , the Geocaching Map, Geocache containers. I let you know the Geocaching definition. I'll bring up all the different Geocaching Merit Badges, and touch on the Geocaching toolbox.

#Geocaching is also known as a #Geocache or #Cache it can also be called #Caching or just plain old #TreasureHunting

    RF9P1B - This is me, formally my ute before I had to sell it. I grabbed a few just before the lockdown that I promised to take to Europe... sadly that didn't happen but now we are allowed out you've just reminded me to go find them a new home!
  • Good job! I miss when trackables were often found in geocaches. Lately I only see them at events or in the hands of their owners 😥
  • @Aykayem
    SGHT3K ... if I can't travel the world, maybe this one can travel virtually :)
  • @jimrky6062
    Craig - Another fantastic video for the Beginners ! 6 trackables - had me thinking "Treasure" (and I'm hearing 'treszah' in a good Aussie accent). I only got 5 but that's ok: my eyes are old. You asked for a Trackable for others to find - here it is: CRK0PG (that's an ought in the middle guys!)
  • @halemeister
    Oooohhh, that intro! Nice work on another great informational video! I have passed your playlist on to a couple people who have messaged me asking me general questions on certain aspects of the game, so thanks for saving me the trouble of having to come up with the right words to say! I have a trackable that I'd like to share. It's my Snag The Tag zombie that I got last year. Discover STM0BD!
  • @BradyMars7391
    Thanks for another fun video. Here is my cachemobile TB PJZ1R4
  • @cachetheline
    Nicely done :) I like the focus on the tracking aspect moreso than the traveling aspect - It's great when they travel but yeah these days the more 'valuable' items might get stolen or taken unknowingly. More people need to know what travelbugs are! More people need to see this video! ;)
  • @kittykatch7463
    Great video Craig and hopefully some of the new cachers who have started caching recently will find it and now how to deal with trackables.

    4:18 Hey, that's Pardoes! (Pronounced as Par-Deuce) He's the mascotte of The Efteling, a famous Dutch fairy-tale amusement park. Cool to see an icon from my country as a Trackable Hitchhiker. :)
  • @cookiekitty222
    Thanks for this explanation, it has taken me a while to fully understand these things. Since I like shiny things, I collect them😂😂.
  • @Komikino
    Dude! Your video intros are GOLDEN! What program did you use for making those?
  • @TheCuriousKiwis
    Putting that new editing software to use!! looking good! We LOVE your Pathtag holders! We are just getting into Pathtags and can't wait to make something like yours! Your geo-coins are also goals! We need to do a Pathtags swap when we get ours in! Another great video! Probably our fav so far!
  • @ausfox8794
    All signed sealed and discovered. Great video.
  • @CacheCanada
    Good vid, good tutorial. We need more of these to get this message out.
  • @matyasvyhnalek
    Great vid for beginners. Many don't understand trackables and don't know what to do. I found 5 in the vid (one which I have previously discovered) and the one in the description which won't let me log it. I must have missed one. Oh well. Thanks for sharing!
  • Nice video. I want to put a link to this video in the description of my TB Hotel geocache. Maybe it will help. We have a lot of newbies around right now. I found six of the hidden codes. Nice!
  • @katkaplan3
    I got 6 of them... I guess I’m missing one? 🤷‍♀️. Beautiful coin collection!! I have mine in a bag... must display them.
  • Newer geocacher her and I am loving it. The GIFF TB coin has me though. Even screen recording, screen capturing clips of the number, editing the clips as best I could I still can’t get the 3rd and 5th digits. 😂😂😂😂
