Geocaching Events
Across Québec
The 21st edition of the Avalanche geocaching event was a great success on February 28, bringing together more than 120 geocachers from across the province who braved the winter to discover the beautiful Lotbinière region.
Although the day started with rain, attendees took the opportunity to complete their bingo cards and finally match faces with several geocaching nicknames. It was a great moment for chatting, meeting new people and reconnecting with friends from the geocaching community.
Once the sun returned, the trails leading to the caches recently placed by cpilote and pamphile probably saw more visitors than during the rest of the season 😜. Geocachers were able to fully enjoy the terrain and the caches specially prepared for the event.
The day wrapped up with the traditional group photo followed by the door prize draw, including the 50/50 raffle and a beautiful wooden chest handcrafted by Golfeur40HX. A big thank you to our sponsors, as well as to oiseau_ca, who generously provided the Avalanche 2026 wooden tokens and souvenir pins.
A huge thank you to the event organizers cpilote, pamphile, RoseDesVents and Bouzibelle! The DJ kept the atmosphere lively throughout the day, while the canteen service and the large containers filled with coffee, tea and chicken broth helped keep everyone warm and energized at the welcome pavilion.
Finally, thanks to tipete, Marvin A and Dalia73, who managed the shop throughout the event. They distributed the Avalanche 2026 geocoins to those who had pre-ordered them and offered visitors a refreshed inventory of travel bugs, decals and geocaching containers for their upcoming caching adventures.
Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to the success of this 21st edition of Avalanche. We hope to see many of you again at future geocaching events!

Association Géocaching Québec
Winter is in full swing, the snow is here… and with it comes Avalanche 2026, our annual winter geocaching event in the heart of Québec!
Whether you’re a seasoned geocacher or simply curious and ready to take on an off-season challenge, Avalanche is the perfect opportunity to get outside, stay active, and share your passion in a friendly and festive atmosphere. On the agenda: winter geocaching, meeting fellow enthusiasts, sharing stories, surprises… and of course, the thrill of finding and hiding caches even when temperatures drop below freezing!
📍 Location: Sainte-Croix
📅 Date: February 28, 2026
🪙 The Avalanche 2026 Geocoin
As tradition dictates, a limited-edition Avalanche 2026 geocoin will be available. Beyond being a great collectible to commemorate your participation, purchasing this geocoin plays an important role: the funds raised directly support the activities of the Association Géocaching Québec (AGQ). Your support helps organize events, promote geocaching throughout Québec, and strengthen our community year after year.
Whether you’re coming with family, friends, or on your own, join us for Avalanche and prove that geocaching never takes a winter break!
To simply share some good moments together, the Association Géocaching Québec invites you to its fourteenth holiday brunch! A gathering open to all geocachers. We’ll celebrate Christmas, put faces to familiar usernames, and warmly welcome the many new geocachers who joined the community.
We’ve reserved space for 50 people; if we end up being more than 100, the venue will still be able to accommodate us!
Make your “Will Attend” quickly on the event page (GCBEXA2), preferably before December 7!
Don’t arrive too late—you won’t want to miss the door prizes offered to participants! The always-popular 50/50 draw will also be making its big return. And for those who would like to take part in the optional gift exchange, simply bring a small present worth about $10, slipped into a plain brown “anonymous” bag. A great way to add a little extra magic to this friendly get-together!
