10 Cool Geocaching Trackables

You know that Geocaching can be great fun. Whether you are "all about the numbers" or if it's more about "the hunt," you've more than likely stumbled upon a trackable or two in your day. Here is a list of some of the coolest trackables available (in no particular order):

1) Travel Bug hat - Wear it on your caching adventures or at events, just make sure your jealous friends only "discover" it.

2) Travel Bug Backpacker - This cool geocoin actually becomes the top to a 35mm film canister (remember them?) and your trackable can carry along some swag.

3) Travel Bug Vehicle Magnet - If it's metal, this magnet can stick to it and your vehicle (or whatever) can be discovered.  On the road or in the parking area at an event, it's always fun to see who sees you.

4) Firefly Cachekinz - There are a whole bunch of Cachekinz and Cache Buddies now available, but one of our favorites has to be the Firefly.  Not only is it named after one of the greatest TV shows ever, but the tail actually glows in the dark.

5) Lackey Geocoins - While there are (literally) thousands of different geocoins available, the lackey coins issued by Groundspeak are about the coolest. Priced very affordably and manufactured with a nice solid heft to them, these coins commemorate the people who make it all happen.  No cacher should be without at least one.

6) Travel Bug Origins - This special Travel Bug tag boasts the American flag with a beautiful etching of a bug.

7) Trackable Patches - These high-quality patches can be sewn to your hat, jacket, backpack, whatever.

8) Travel Bug Vehicle Decal - Available in either black or white, these decals are sharp. They typically mount on the outside glass of your vehicle for all the world to see.

9) Signal The Frog Travel Tag - You've got to send props out to the mascot who started it all. Signal strikes a pose and is fully trackable to boot.

10) The Original Travel Bug - Maybe not very unique, but you have to respect the enduring nature of these original trackables. With well over one million in circulation, you're bound to find one of these guys any any Geocaching expedition.
