+Isonzo Karst Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 For me I believe it would be the one or two steps required for this cache Quote Link to comment
WH Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Didn't even have to leave the car for this one. Quote Link to comment
+TeamAO Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 10 Miles. I don't know, maybe 100 feet. Quote Link to comment
+wimseyguy Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Found more than a couple without even leaving the vehicle. In fact on one cache run it became the object, and the driver was greatly harassed if he couldn't manuever close enough. It's not as easy as it sound though, and another requirement was to careen across the wallyworld parking lot at over 45 MPH (after hours of course) while we guessed which lamppost it was in. Sliding minivan doors are better than traditional car doors for this extreme level of geocaching. BTW it was a lot of FUN!!! Quote Link to comment
+Me & Bucky Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 What? Get out of the car?? Please! Check out A Special Memory in Las Vegas! Quote Link to comment
+Moose Mob Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 There are about a half dozen that I did not have to leave the car for. Including this one Quote Link to comment
+Renegade Knight Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 (edited) I gotta admit. The ones you can get without getting out of the car are just cool. Anyone can hide a cache in the bushes and make you walk a few steps. But to muggleproof a cache that you reach out your car window and snag. That takes talent.

+welch Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 aside from a virtual, about 60ft, mostly because I parked on the wrong side of the street instead of the nearest parking lot. Quote Link to comment
+Airmapper Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 There are about a half dozen that I did not have to leave the car for. Including this one How was your signal under that concrete. EPE??? Must have had a good description. Quote Link to comment
+Sue Gremlin Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 We paddled to one last weekend and found that it was hidden at waist level in a hollow tree that overhung the lake, so we didn't even have to get out of our kayaks. We didn't even have to reach. It was awesome. Quote Link to comment

+cache_test_dummies Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Pulled up, rolled down the car window, reached out, and found it. I'm waiting for someone to hide a cache inside my car so I don't even have to roll down the window. I'm kidding - please don't hide a cache inside my car. Quote Link to comment
+WeightMan Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 For this one, I didn't even have to unfasten the seat belt. Quote Link to comment
+cainrcc Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 There is a series of caches here called "The Caching Gods" Theta (waypoint GCQEQC) is a leg of the series that you will find on Wheeling island, I drove up to this one and I could have sat in the car to retrive it from its location I would say I took one step to grab this one.

+Airmapper Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 I'm waiting for someone to hide a cache inside my car so I don't even have to roll down the window. How about one of those sardine can caches, you know, the ones with Louisiana hot sauce cracked open under the seat. Just Kidding Quote Link to comment
+2Wheel'in Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Didn't have to leave the cachemobile for "An Italian Yankee", and as far as walking goes..."Right Under Your Nose" was planted 192 feet from my front door Regards, Bill Quote Link to comment
+treasure_hunter Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Didnt have to leave the car for one cache, it was at Sonic Drive In on the thing you order on. Quote Link to comment
+dogbreathcanada Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Like many others, never left the truck. Just reached out the window and snagged it. Quote Link to comment
+graylling Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 I actually had to lean out the window to get WM #5 Ohhh the indignity of it all. Those lamp posts shouldn't have concrete bases. Quote Link to comment
+nittany dave Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 ...I'm waiting for someone to hide a cache inside my car so I don't even have to roll down the window... One temporary stage of a very difficult multi-cache was in a magnetic key holder under my car! At the start of the cache, they placed it there and the coordinates for one of the stages was at the edge of a parking lot. The parking lot was empty so I parked right at ground zero and looked everywhere around the area until I remembered a comment I had heard earlier that caused me to think I was being spoofed. Sure enough, there it was under the car, right at the coordinates! Quote Link to comment
+Alan2 Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 One block walk from my house but it was already plundered. Quote Link to comment
+Team Perks Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Include me in the list as having hidden a cache where you didn't have to leave your car. (Finding a good place for something like that is harder than you might think.) Quote Link to comment
+wimseyguy Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 I'm waiting for someone to hide a cache inside my car so I don't even have to roll down the window. I signed a cache I found in someone's car twice. Once I was helping someone unload their car at an event, and they had the replacement container for a cache in need of repair in the rear of the car behind the cooler. At GW3 we were looking for a cache near the parking area, and spotted an ammo can in the back of IC Man's car, so we opened it up and signed the log. I never actually logged that one though. I too have had the magnetic stage hidden on my car for a special 1K hide, but searched outside for quite a while before finding it. Quote Link to comment

+Frodo13 Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 We actually found one (we didn't even have a GPS at the time) while eating at a fast food joint. My wife spotted a light pole in a parking lot across the street with a magnetic keyholder on it. We were about 60 feet from it when she saw the thing. I put down my happy meal and drove over. She leaned out and grabbed it. We got home and found the cache page and logged it. Quote Link to comment

After seeing the preview of the geocaching documentary featuring the VK's and others, and hearing of their MO, I'd imagine you have to move pretty fast to log it while they are in caching mode. Might be better to do it while they are at an event or sleeping. Quote Link to comment
