EarthCache Fossil Travel Tag – Archaeopteryx

For the love of the Earth! 

EarthCaches are some of the most unique and interesting geocaches that you can find. An EarthCache is a special type of geocache you can visit to learn a geology lesson developed by the community.

Geocaching HQ works with The Geological Society of America to support and promote these unique geocaches throughout the world.

This series of fossil travel tags is a fun and trackable way to celebrate EarthCaches and the chance to learn from these unique cache finds!

The Archaeopteryx Fossil travel tag is one of five travel tags in this series. They are trackable at Geocaching.com with a unique fossil icon. 

Archaeopteryx was a feathered, bird-like dinosaur that lived in what is now southern Germany during the Late Jurassic period. They were roughly the size of a pigeon or magpie, and had small teeth instead of a beak.

The five travel tags in this series include:

• Ichthyosaur
• Meganisoptera
• Dilophosaurus
• Stegosaurus
• Archaeopteryx

Dimensions:  Approximately 2 inches x 1.5 inches.
