+jolandy Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 (edited) My brother in the UK is heading for 100 caches before me (yes I know 100 is old hat for most of you) and due to an injury we've not been able to get out recently. The injury is better but not up to spending a whole day hiking. I am being taunted by the fact that near where he lives people seem to set up walking loops of 8-10 caches so even with a 5 and 2 year old he can pick up 3-5 caches an hour with ease. Maybe its just the sheer density of caches here but I can't find anything similar... so here's the question. Where can I pick up 15 easy (avoid multi's and puzzles) caches in a short period of time this weekend? Edited March 26, 2008 by jolandy Quote Link to comment
+Shop99er Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Depends on where your 'here' is. Where are you located or what area are you looking to cache in? Quote Link to comment
+jolandy Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 D'oh.... I forget the 'northwest' is a big place ;-) I'm in Kirkland, WA... but I don't mind a reasonable drive. Quote Link to comment
+MamaOdy Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 North Creek Trail in the Mill Creek area (Snohomish County) has a bunch of caches. GrievousAngel has a NCT bookmark list of them. I haven't hunted for them myself, but I'm looking forward to doing them with my small children in tow. Clear Creek Trail in the Silverdale area (Kitsap County) has a number of caches too.

+ProjectFred325 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 (edited) Pt Defiance you can easily get a dozen in a day, without too much effort. Yes its a drive. A great way to get quick numbers quick, are the cach machines. I have seen people with 50 plus in a LONG day. Vashion will get 20 or so for a nice day trip.

A cache machine is technically an Event cache after a day of finding caches along a pre-defined route...all planned out to get as many caches as possible in a day's period of time.

square_peg Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Ignore the taunts. Forget numbers. Cache when and where you feel like it with the only goal being enjoying your day. Quote Link to comment

I wish I could but we both have quite competitive spouses whose idea of 'enjoying the day' is beating the other ;-) Quote Link to comment
