The season finale of Comcast SportsNet's
Wildlife with Jeremy show featured the
Friends of Tryon Creek in July 2012. The episode featured Jeremy geocaching in and around Portland, including the site of the very first geocache,
"Original Stash" near Mt. Hood. After each geocache Jeremy checked in with the Friends and shared our mission - to connect people to the natural world and inspire an ethic of environmental stewardship in all - through interviews with Friends' staff, as well as youth campers and their parents.
