Searching for Jeeps


Recommended Posts

I have a link which used to list all caches in the UK containing a TB with 'Jeep' in the name. It was here.

 

But geocacheuk was offline for a while, and now it's back, the link doesn't work.

 

Since I've decided to make it my mission (albeit not a very high priority one) to find a yellow and red jeep to add to my green and white icons, does anybody know if this search is still available?

 

Thanks.

I've found it. It's under 'My Stats', then My searches - caches where name contains jeep.

 

Oops, no it's not. That's the search I tried which only finds caches with 'Jeep' in the title (Like "Jeepers creepers" etc)

 

Not sure how you would search for it on G:UK it may be possible on GSAK or similar software.

 

I'll have a look later on, it may be that you can seach logs for jeep, that would give you any instances of jeep that have been entered.

 

ie. Took Jeep TB TFTC etc...

I used to be able to use this URL

 

http://stats.geocacheuk.com/caches/view_map.php?q=223544

 

But alas, no longer seems to work. Whatever the search was it's no longer available on that link as it now errors.

I might have misinterpreted what you are looking for, but can't you search for trackable items by name?

 

If you type in "red jeep" and click on search, a list of items comes up, and it tells you their distance from your home co-ords. If it's close, you can click on the item to find out the cache name.

 

Unfortuately you can't re-order it my distance away from your home co-ords.

 

I've used this in the past to search for a particular coin that I want to find, to see if there was one nearby.

Trouble is I think there are more red jeeps than the maximum number of matches returned by the search, so you don't see them all.

You can do this type of search on GSAK.

This is the list of caches that have bugs/coins with Jeep in the title, centered on your first cache found.

 

Sorry the list is a bit unwieldy but just look at the first bit. Code > Name > Short name > Distance (miles)...

You can do this type of search on GSAK.

This is the list of caches that have bugs/coins with Jeep in the title, centered on your first cache found.

 

Wow! Thanks very much. Even centered on my location. There don't seem to be many reds or yellows near me though :laughing:

 

Thanks.

Care to share the secret?

Just had a look... It's doable via a FILTER (CTRL-F) and then JEEP in the name of the TB.

Yes, I did it via a filter, so that the search was relevent to NickPick I looked up their first cache they found and created a PQ centered at that location, and then used that GC as the cetral point for the search.

 

I was quite suprised that it was so easy to search for TB's / Coins in this way, I may go and do some Jeep hunts myself, I'm yet to get one, but I have seen a 4x4 coin.
