+Tzoid Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 I believe the last extensive poll, a couple years ago, showed the average was 38 year old males mainly working in the technical field. I think now most are 40. Just guessing. And I fit that stereotype perfectly. Mainstream at last. Quote
+Team Flashncache Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 43 this month ... Me too! My birthday's on the 27th, how about you? My wife (a very youthful 40) comes along sometimes, but my main caching partner is our daughter Josie, 6 1/2. Quote

Team Polar Bear Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 My boyfriend and I are new at this and we were also wondering the other day about the demographics of other geocachers. It seems to be a good mix of people. We are both 23. And people look at us like we're crazy too. Maybe because we are Quote
+Deepdiggingmole Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 [Mr. strong has authritis and is into caching as an exetercise. At 42 its a little early for the big A to be afflicting me but hey just keep moving] I am 46 this year - Osteo-Arthritis in my ankle, so the walking does me good, though too much rough terrain stuff can cause some serious aching - but hey, compared to Snowdonia, Kent is flat Tim - ddm Quote

+silverquill Posted January 14, 2006 Posted January 14, 2006 Ha! Just turned 59. Got my Magellan for my birthday from my mother whos will be 84 in a few weeks. She actually found the cache on our very first trip (the grand kids missed it!) -- a micro on the Oregon coast. Found another one on that short trip. So, it is a sport for the young and the old. I'm back in New England now. No funny looks yet. (I think). I learned about this from my son-in-law who learned about it while walking near his college with his mother and observed a cacher making his hide! He took the time to explain what he was doing, instead of reverting to secretive, covert mode, and thereby stimulated a new chain of geocachers that spans the east and west coasts! Quote

+CarlfromOH Posted January 14, 2006 Posted January 14, 2006 52. Family also lies to go. Actually, they are better finders than I am! Quote
+crazyone Posted January 14, 2006 Posted January 14, 2006 I am 39 yrs old.But my kids are 7 and 5 and they go with me,when there in the mood to go. I will leave them at a relatives house if i am planning to go out all day. They just can,t handle going all day and tend to get bored with all the driving from cache to cache. but when they want to go they beat me to the car and say lets go. I know they enjoy geocaching cause they play geocaching at home with all their toys and tell each other clues and yes my lawn mower finds a few of these crude containers. but it keep them active and thinking.

+The Haddads Pit Crew Posted January 14, 2006 Posted January 14, 2006 54 and in 7 months I can get a senior coffee at McD's! I'm 46. I was out doing a multi cache and stopped in a Dunkin Donuts. I order my coffee and the woman asks if that is a senior coffee. I am dressed with my winter coat, waist pack, and orange hat (she can't even see that my short hair is silver.) I was flabbergasted. I mummbled no I'm not a senior. I was not ready for being asked that question yet. Since then I have been asked at other places that offer discounts to seniors. I still can't bring myself to lie and say that I'm a senior even for a discount. The rest of the Crew are: Tom-50, Ericka-25, Chris-24, Brian-20, Mike-14, Robbie-12, Leah-12, Catherine-10, Jonathan-8 Donna of The HPC Quote
