Rathergohiking (Dennis Tatum) has been a passionate contributor to the Texas geocaching community since 2005. With over 1,200 caches hidden, Dennis is perhaps best known not just for the quantity of his hides, but for their remarkable creativity — virtually every cache features a unique, handcrafted container paired with an entertaining cache page. Whether it's an LPC hiding a fully staged Star Wars scene or any number of other imaginative surprises, Dennis brings a sense of wonder and artistry to the game that few can match. His impact on the community is reflected in the numbers: 6,619 favorite points awarded (2nd in Texas) and the #1 favorite point H-index in the state, meaning finders consistently rate his caches among the best. His 41,617 found logs come from nearly 8,000 different geocachers — a testament to just how far his reach extends. He has also hosted 56 events, hidden caches covering the entire D/T grid and every calendar day of the year, and placed 107 large-sized caches. Dennis is, as his nominator put it, a doer, not an observer — someone who has spent two decades giving back to the game he loves
