In 2012 a group of geocachers from western Massachusetts and upstate New York put a challenge out to the world of geocachers, asking for their help to make the Berkshire Geobash a MEGA event. On July 7, 2012 that dream became a reality and the Berkshire Geobash became the first, and only continuous, MEGA event in New England! Over 600 geocachers from around the world, including the continental USA, Canada, Hawaii, Germany, and the Netherlands came together that day at Bousquet Mountain in the heart of the Berkshires! Since then, we have had cachers from England, France, Denmark, Alaska, and New Zealand who have come to enjoy the great geocaching the Berkshires has to offer. For the next 6 years the Planning Committee worked diligently to provide a high quality experience for all those geocachers who chose to attend this awesome event. Many geocachers traveled long distances to attend the Berkshire Geobash. Our team planned 9 – 10 days of geocaching events and activities to make sure geocachers got to experience the best of the Berkshires. From “Meet & Greets,” picnics, dinners, lab caches, hikes, kayaking/canoeing, an FTF Frenzy contest, and more, cachers experienced the entire county and some of the most amazing places!
