+Nalarangka Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 (edited) I don't know if this has been discussed before...I couldn't find it in a search and it could have changed since it was last discussed...but does anyone know which cache has had the most finds. I would venture a guess that it would be located in a tourist town like Gatlinburg, TN. I was looking at a cache I had found there and was amazed at how often it is found.

+TeamAldridge Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I would venture it's in the Pacific Northwest seeing is that's where geocaching began. Just my thought on it, I have no evidence whatsoever to support that however. Quote Link to comment
Skippermark Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Other than events where some have thousands of finds, I'd imagine it's in the northwest too. I think the original stash cache has 2000+ finds or something like that. Quote Link to comment
+hydnsek Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 (edited) Great timing for this question! Addisonbr just published Most Found Caches by State and Country, a nifty bookmark list that includes all that, plus some interesting stats that answer the OP. As of 11 May 2009: Most finds: Oregon - ORIGINAL STASH TRIBUTE PLAQUE (GCGV0P) - 2342 finds Most outside of Oregon: Tennessee - Goin' to Gatlinburg? (GCB42D) - 1590 finds Second most finds in Oregon: Un-Original Stash (GC92) - 1915 finds Distance, in feet, between the most found and the second most found caches in the world: 73 Most watched cache: Washington state - Mission 9: Tunnel of Light (GC1169) - aka the APE cache - 1286 finds, 315 watchers Kudos to addisonbr for researching and publishing this info!
