"Many thanks to Design by J and J for their excellent work on this tag. The colours are so much more vibrant than the blueprint shows. This tag could not have turned out better."

"Just wanted to say that this pathtag turned out very well. Being our first pathtag, the details needed to be just right. After a few iterations of blueprinting and redesigning, the blueprint was accepted and then we waited for it to be produced. When we got them in the mail we were shocked on just how awesome they turned out. Way better than expected. The fine details were amazing. We love our first tag. Thanks for making a signature item that is both affordable and detailed. This was money well spent. "

"I found my first Pathtag in 2009 and did not know what it was. I just gave them away or placed them in other caches. Once I realized that you could trade and collect them with Geocachers around the world I was hooked. This is my first tag, Designed by Dark Star and limited to 100. It is still undergoing revisions, but I know it will turn out awesome. Team Low Tech is a iPhone(3G/S) Geocaching group with active members in Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. "

"We travel by motorcycle many time when caching. So I have to have a Pathtag for this. We plan to travel to all 50 states on the motor cycle and caching all the way. What fun doing the two things you love."

"These tags came out great! This tag was designed for our first club tag. We are part of the Endangered Species II Club. The tag has been a huge hit! We will be needing to order a refill soon. "

"I am just amazed at the response to my first tag. It is AMAZING to me that all the folks that I have traded with here have traded honestly and promptly. What a great group of people to trade tags with. I am not hooked on this Pathtag thing and am looking forward to making a second tag. Kudos to the Pathtag Community!!"

"My family and I LOVE to go camping together. The last few times we were out camping the kids asked if we could go geocaching, and we did. Then it hit me, we need a new camping inspired pathtag to leave behind in caches we find, as well as to leave behind at random place in the campgrounds just to see who picks them up and where they may travel to."
