Some geocachers collect coins, some trade swag, and me? I collect companions that ride along for the adventure. And this one’s special—it’s my first official trackable.

Who is Puffin on the Trail?
This little stuffed puffin was a gift from my daughter after her recent trip to Iceland. Soft, sturdy, and sporting that classic “I don’t care” puffin expression, he’s ready to tackle trails, climbs, and caches with me. Think of him as the perfect co-pilot for my mountain and gravel biking quests.
Why He’s Joining the Adventure
If you’ve read my last ramble about Icelandic Puffin – The feathered fuel for my mountain and gravel biking quests, you know he’s more than a keepsake. He’s my trail buddy, tucked into my hydropack, bouncing over rocks, mud, and hills that make you question your life choices.
Now, as a trackable, he’s ready to meet new geocachers, explore new terrain, and leave a little feathered mark wherever he goes.
Where He’s Headed
His journey starts here, but who knows where he’ll go next? Will he stick to local trails, or wing his way across the globe? Every cache he visits will tell part of his story.

A Note for Fellow Geocachers
Puffin isn’t going anywhere on his own—he’ll be riding along with me on all my geocaching adventures. But you can still log your encounter with him, follow his journey on the map, and share your own trail stories. Think of him as a traveling companion who brings a little puffin-powered spirit to every cache we visit.
