As the year wraps up and the holidays begin, it's the perfect time to slow down, grab a mug of hot cocoa, and reflect on the great geocaching adventures we shared.
The Brazos Valley saw incredible new hides, challenging trails, and unforgettable FTFs this year. Now we want to hear from you: What was the best, funniest, or most memorable cache you found in 2025?

We're asking everyone to jump into our Facebook group! and tell us about that one find that made your entire year. There's no right answer—it could be the oldest cache, the most challenging gadget, or just a simple container with a view!
- Which Cache Code (e.g., GC49C, GC8K800)
- Why was it great? (The hike, the container, the logbook entry, the view?)
- Who were you with? (Solo, family, fellow BVGC members?)
We'll highlight some of the best submissions next month as we kick off our 2026 caching year!
🌲 Quick Holiday Caching Tips
If you decide to squeeze in some last-minute caching this week, keep these holiday tips in mind:
- Muggle Alert: Areas near shopping centers and parks will be very busy. Please be extra mindful of stealth!
- Family Fun: The holidays are a perfect time to introduce a visiting relative to the fun of geocaching. Look for caches with a Difficulty (D) rating of 1 or 1.5.
- Souvenir Window: Don't forget, the Closing 2025 Souvenir is active from December 24-31! Log a find to earn it!
From the BVGC Team, we wish you a wonderful Christmas and a safe New Year's!
