+Desert Trekker Posted September 22, 2007 Posted September 22, 2007 On 3rd August we had found all bar one UAE cache if you exclude the caches which are actually in Oman. We thought that soon we would clean out all of the UAE caches . Eight days later we found that one missing UAE cache, but by then four new caches had appeared. There now seems to be a cache explosion – 8 caches placed in September including three today. It’s great to see that there are lots of new cachers here but our aim of finding every UAE cache now seems to be getting very hard to do . Quote
+cincol Posted September 22, 2007 Posted September 22, 2007 Hi There - you guys are lucky with the size of the UAE. I have 4 to go and then I have found all the Qatari caches that are possible for a "normal" person not having access to restricted areas. I have placed 11 of my own recently that has pushed up the numbers for other cachers to find. I hope that this will make my fellow cachers in Qatar wake up and start placing a few for me to find as well. Happy caching. Quote
+Desert Warrior Posted September 22, 2007 Posted September 22, 2007 You may need to be quick. The life of the caches I set in Abu Dhabi were very short! Quote
+GeoCRAt Posted September 28, 2007 Posted September 28, 2007 I remember the days when all the UAE caches used to fit onto three pages on geocaching.com. Very soon I expect we will hit 5 pages, meaning more than 80 caches. Seems I need to get out more and boost my numbers, after Jordan perhaps. Later. Quote
+Springstone Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 Yeah, I am very impressed with my fellow cachers, seems like caches are being hidden near every weekend now! Keep up the good work! On another note, I have setup a community site for the cachers in the UAE. If you are keen on joining up visit http://uaecachers.springstone.net. Keep up the cache hidding!!! Quote
+Carbon Hunter Posted May 24, 2009 Posted May 24, 2009 Amazing Just 18 monthys later and there are 213 ACTIVE caches in the UAE (i.e. 11 pages on geocaching.com) and 139 in Qatar. Wow how times have changed. Thanks oldtimers - makes caching here a lot more pleasurable. Quote
+Carbon Hunter Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Well done to Tazdbx - you just planted the 250th (active) cache in the UAE Quote
+terratin Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 Thanks for all the new caches in Qatar as well. There's still some space for some more though We just placed a new one on some previously uncached territory, in the middle of the water off the Corniche Quote
