+StarBrand Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 http://www.geocaching.com/seek/nearest.aspx seems to have a 50 mile limit - I only get 47 in total! 200? I can but dream.. Add an ?dist=100 - or some other amount of miles to then end of that URL to see more - it means distance=100 miles from start Quote Link to comment
BRTango Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 200 within 11.4 miles of home Well... looks like I've got some work ahead of me. So far I've only hit 4 of those Quote Link to comment
+slightlynorth Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 I'm at 5.6 miles. 7.0 if I filter my finds. 4201 within 50 miles of my home. Quote Link to comment
+txoilgas Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 4 miles even. We've already done it, but there are a few caches between here and there that we haven't gotten to yet for one reason or another. This looks like the best so far. We are at 4.5 miles Quote Link to comment
+geos of the jungle Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 8.9 miles 2666 caches within 50 miles of home. Let's hope they're still around when I retire! Quote Link to comment
CoyoteRed Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 57.3 miles for 200 total caches. 84.1 miles for 200 unfound caches. There's only 20 unfound within 50 miles. Quote Link to comment
+Thrak Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 (edited) 200 caches within 6.3 miles (of course all of those are already found) Filtering out finds it's 31.6 miles Edited August 24, 2006 by Thrak Quote Link to comment
+KKTH3 Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 87.2 miles....but it would be over 135 driving miles to those caches 79.6 miles to get 200 When I started there were 5 caches within 100 miles. 93.4 miles for cache #200. Fargo, ND. There really is nothing up here. Only 84 within 47 miles of home. At least 300 miles to collect 200 caches, about 60 (other than mine) within 50 miles. That's why its taken me a year to find about 130 caches, and I'm only in rural Australia, not the out back, where the distances would be in the thousand mile range. 167.8 miles Yeah, it's that sparce. Go go rural cachers! for us it was almost a perfect 2 cache per 1 mile radius ratio with the 200th closest cache being 100.3 miles away from home. If we filter out finds and our own hides, that distance swells out to "too far" Quote Link to comment
+Harry Dolphin Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 9.6 miles, but I've found all but seven of those (three boating caches, and one graveyard cache will never get done.) For 200 caches that I haven't found or hidden, it's 16.6 miles. Quote Link to comment
+Natureboy56 Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 We only have to go 7.4. We have a ton in our area, most to claim by jestjuggle Quote Link to comment

+ChicagoCanineCrew Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 8 miles! Wow! I'm surprised as well... I guess that means I don't have any good excuses for not finding more caches. Quote Link to comment

+steve_c Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 It's about 31 miles here in the populated part of SE Norway, so there are quite a few places in the US with fewer than here, I see Quote Link to comment

+Leifr Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 This question had me scrounging for a bit because I'm not actually completely sure of my exact "home coordinates" and my GPSr is in the car and it's raining and I'm ready to go to bed, so I just did it from my zipcode and came up with 7.4 miles (but actually, I looked at that one on the google maps page and it's really about 10 miles, so my final answer would be 10. Whoo!... ok i'm now ready for bed.... Quote Link to comment
