+miss_butterfly Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 I've just set myself my first geocaching goal of finding 50 by the end of the month, specifically on my birthday, and wondered what current goals everyone else has Quote Link to comment
+PopUpPirate Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 At least reach 100 before I place my next one (too much hiding, not enough finding!) Also to clear a few pages and remove the puzzle caches from my list that are undoubtedly great but I'm too bone idle to go out and do! (though work and commitments don't help!) To do a 4/4, then a 5/5. Quote Link to comment
+Stuey Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 To find at least one cache (not virtual or locationless) in every county in the UK before I retire (30 years to go - okay so it's not very challenging), but also to cache in every country in Europe, then the world!!! Quote Link to comment

+Cryptik Souls Crew Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 I need to finish setting a new cache which is taking me far too long. I'd like to attend a mega event and I'd like to have a bash at finding Mission 4: Southern Bowl Whether or not any of it will happen is another matter! Quote Link to comment
+mumbo jumbo Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 To reach my 50th cache on hols in France later this month (need another 7 to reach 49 in the meantime!) To release a couple of TBs To complete the research for my next series of caches (it's taking absolutely bloody ages - but it'll be worth it, I hope!!) Quote Link to comment
+Sensei TSKC Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 To do my 600th in Canada in August. Unfortunately I am on 594 which means not alot of caching between now and then. Quote Link to comment
+Bear and Ragged Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Nothing too big. 1. Reach 300 finds before we reach 12 months in the cacheing game. (Dated from our first found cache, 20 Aug 2005) Thats 75 to find, in 6 weeks... 2. We have 6 caches, which are multi or puzzles, that we are part way through -and WILL finish. 3. There's a multi not too far away, that we tried for very early on in our cacheing days, and decided to "give it a miss" half way through. We know we can do a better job now! 4. The "Cache in every County" idea did cross my mind, and we have started it, admitedly only half-heartedly so far! -But given a chance, we do go off to a new county for a couple of caches!

+Jango & Boba Fett Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Complete the setting of our Nelson's County Series - 9 down 3 to go. Visit every Nelsonian Cache outside Norfolk - half way through this with only Wales (2), Cornwall (3), Isle of Man (1) and Ireland (1) left - that was until JollyJax went and set another! Reach our 200th cache by tomorrow evening! Quote Link to comment
+Us 4 and Jess Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 We would like our 500th cache to be our Durham meet, so we need to find 6 caches in 12 days, easy as this may sound, we have little to nothing less than 15 miles away, and my work and Graham's shifts are making it very difficult at the minute. I have never real thought about any goals before, other than the above it would be nice to get our 1,000 cache on my 40th birthday, but that is a long way away yet Mandy Quote Link to comment

Deceangi Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 How long? Tut tut Lester You never ask a lady her age, just in case she's been telling porkies to her boyfriend/husband Back on topic My current caching goal is To publish 1000 caches , I've a EDP (Estimated Date of Publication) that not too far in the future. That's as long as you guys and gal's don't slow down Quote Link to comment
+*mouse* Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Mine was to find a cache near home called Treasure Island Finally managed that last weekend Yay! So now it's to reach 100 by the end of the month (10 to go) and to find a 5/5 by the end of the year. Quote Link to comment
+HazelS Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Mine is to hit 500 caches in time for the shrops cache bash in early sept. I'm currently on 381, and I have been told by my cherleaders (philpamandrob, Bargee and ac-p) that I need to do an average now of 13. caches per week. That's an improvement, at one point it was 15 caches per week. I have to hit this - I've already ordered the achievement pin / coin frm Lynn!!! H Quote Link to comment
Nediam Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 (edited) At the start of the year I said (in a similar thread) that I would like to reach 1000 by the end of this year. At the time I was on nearly 500 which had taken about 18 months to do. I'm now on just over 900 so I should (fingers crossed) be able to get to a 1000 soon, especially as I'm on holiday next week Other goals include doing the Saints & Sinners, Alpha Quest and the Motorway Mayhem series at some point. I would also like to find a cache in every county in the UK, could perhaps combine it with an attempt at the most counties in 24 hours record I suppose I should place some more caches as well. I've only got 3 at the moment and one of those was adopted . I'd like to have a go at creating a series based on a common theme, but I'm still trying to think of an original idea.

+The Bolas Heathens Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 To get our 1000th cache in less than 336 days as that's the current UK record according to Deego's site. We're well on target and have firm plans to boost our number of finds significantly in the next month to help us on our way. Other than that, to get to as many beautiful places as often as possible with caching. Quote Link to comment
markandlynn Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 To place great caches. To find great caches. CITO whenever we go caching. Respect the countryside and follow the countryside code. Enjoy ourselves getting excercise in the countryside. Celebrate milestones as and when they occur. Complete every cache on this bookmark list Quote Link to comment

lakeuk Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Mines just to do a least 52 caches a year - no problem so far Quote Link to comment
+Snells Pace Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 To reach my 500th find before my 2nd child is born. Finding time to cache after this event will be difficult, to say the least. Currently on 464, baby due Sept 30th. Quote Link to comment
+Son Of Windswept Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 To take some time off work... and find some/any caches in France. Need a holiday though, there aren't that many near me that I haven't placed Quote Link to comment
+dibbler69 Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 To complete the Marsbars Enigma series and the Sleeper Cells. Quote Link to comment
+adambro Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 I'm aiming to get my first 100 before the 18th July 2006, a year since my first find. I'm on 99 now so not too difficult. Probably doesn't sound a lot to many but all but a few have been found by public transport. I shall be returning to the North East where I started caching for a few weeks in August/September and I'm hoping to log a good number to get me near to my 200th. As normal, I'll be using public transport for most of the time, but there are some cache rich areas which I'm planning trips to. Also, I hope to find a white and a yellow jeep as when I'm in staying at my brother's in the North East, I'll have less to do so it'll be easier to chase around after jeeps. Maybe even find a new green jeep if any of those find their way there by the time i'm up there. Looking forward to my second summer of caching. Quote Link to comment
+stora Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 (edited) To complete the Marsbars Enigma series and the Sleeper Cells. Same with me, and then onto his Geo-sleuth series. Edited July 5, 2006 by stora Quote Link to comment
Deego Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 (edited) Maybe... just maybe I might finish off the Alchemy Quest I started it in April 2004 and am going to set the slowest time ever Edited July 5, 2006 by Deego Quote Link to comment

Well that's just blown that idea out of the water And yes, thanks are due for finally solving the conundrum that is the pda, next stop... trying to get it to link to the gps, then there's the matter of not being able to load POIs to the Tomtom. Oh, and while I'm at it, my brakes make a squealing noise, could you sort that out for me on Saturday while you're doing nothing? Cheers, Mate. Quote Link to comment
+alma Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 to do this multi cache near me thats quite hard and been meaning to do for over a year .also to reach 300 caches before the years out.and to do a couple of 5 star rated caches i have in mind Quote Link to comment
The Mount View Crew Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Our only current target is to reach 100 caches whilst we are on a camping holiday in Guernsey in the middle of August. We are now on 86, so need to get a few more in before we go (there are 4 caches on Guernsey). We have been pretty slow getting to this number (joined Jan 05) but have enjoyed every one of them.

+The_Westies Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 We're looking to get to 300 by our 1st anniversary in September. It would be good to have a go at placing our 1st cache as well. Quote Link to comment
+BikerKats Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 I'd like to have found 100 by our one year anniversary in October. Other commitments prevent us from going caching as much as I would like, so this is a realistic target as we are currently on 70. I'd like our 100th to be a bit special too. We've now placed 10 caches and I'd like them to be found regularly (our first one does not get many visitors, the other 9 are still new enough to be interesting!). We'll probably place some more fairly soon. We currently have 4 TBs, three very new and one stuck in a TB hotel in Devon. I'd like to see the new TBs starting their missions. We have one more TB to set up and release. Quote Link to comment
