Find (again) a travel bug we have taken (a long time ago)

Hello All and Happy New Year.

 

We started to search caches in 2012.

During this time, we sometimes have picked up travel bug that we put somewhere else.

 

We didn't know that it was possible to follow the travel bug we have moved.

 

Now, we would like to find all travel bugs we have moved by the past ... but even we have only 200 caches to our name, it's not easy ...

 

Is there any solution to rediscover them in order to follow their travel ?

 

Thanks for help.

 

PS : sorry for my poor english ...

On your Trackable Items page, there are lists of all your Trackable logs: https://www.geocaching.com/my/travelbugs.aspx

 

See the lists for "Discovered It" and "Dropped Off". You can then select and view the pages of previously found Trackables.

 

On each Trackable page (for Trackables you don't own) is a menu item "Watch This Trackable". Click that, to follow its travels.

1) go to your profile https://www.geocaching.com/my/default.aspx

 

2) Click on the "Yours" in "Trackable Items (Yours)" which takes you to a page with a URL with the format

https://www.geocaching.com/track/search.aspx?o=1&uid=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx

where the uid value xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx applies to your login

 

3) Delete the "o=1&" to leave a URL with the format

https://www.geocaching.com/track/search.aspx?uid=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx

This page lists the first 20 TBs/GCs in name order you have found.

 

You can now page through them or change the sort order to date of last log or distance

 

I've bookmarked the URL from (3) and use it monitor what has happened to the TBs/GCs I've found.
