Hey all, CFE or Crit here. Located in Mid-Michigan and been caching on and off since 2014 as a wee lad. I'm quite younger than most veteran cachers, but have recently been reinvigorated with the love for the art by introducing a new friend to caching and we've been on a spree finding them since. For having cached for as many years as I have, it may be surprising that I just recently got over the 200-find mark. But as life tends to be, I do not have easy transport access and was really only able to find those within bicycle distance for the longest time. Hoping to change that soon and change is already in progress. I'm still very proud that the first cache I hid back in 2014 is still around to this day, even if I can't be there to do maintenance on it. I really want that ownership transferred, yeesh... Best find? Probably one in the woods with a bunch of multicolored bison tubes and only 1 of the tubes had the log inside. Either that or a walk down a deertrail to an abandoned piece of wall with elaborate graffiti on it. Cheers, and glad to be a part of this community for this long, and my goal is to keep the trade going for as long as I can, being part of the newer generation of cachers...

Whew, I thought I was alone! 14 yr old geocacher here. I was planning on going to an event with my parents being transportation (obviously at this age) and I was just kinda freaking out a bit over the age gap which is apparent on this site. I go caching with my teen friends a lot, we just bike since we live near a big city so it's great fun, really. Plus, with the kind and caring community we have here, I don't think any young cachers like me need to be treated any differently, I guess unless they're younger than 11 or so....
