+The Cache Checkers Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Hello, What is the quickest way to discover how many caches are in one area? I was recently at a cache in a local park and was told there are three others and several across the street. I don't know if they are placed by the same person. I entered the zip code, but it would take me awhile to look through them all. Anyone know any shortcuts? Quote Link to comment
+StarBrand Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 On the hide-n-seek a cache page http://www.geocaching.com/seek - there are more options including search by address and search by coordinate. Also on any listing page - you can click the link that says "all nearby caches". Quote Link to comment

+jbar Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Just pull up the map on the bottom of the cache page and you can zoom out a little bit to see any near by caches. I use the maps to find groups of caches close together. Quote Link to comment

For me it's the quickest way to get a visual perspective on your surrounds. Quote Link to comment
