+tomfuller & Quill Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 85 listed geocaches within 19 miles of home. 4 are mine, 1 is a puzzle requiring finding the oldest caches in the state, 1 is a NIAH micro and 1 is on a mountaintop with avalanche potential. All the rest I've found. Any day I go caching, I drive a minimum of 40 miles. Quote Link to comment
+GeePa Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 Yes I cropped before I saved. When I upload to photobucket though (or my geocaching gallery) it shrinks it to a tiny blurry picture . I assume everyone is using free photobucket accounts ? Actually, I am using a free tool called DropBox. It gives me 2 GB offsite file storage for free and also lets me share a folder on more than one computer. I use it to share my GSAK database files on two computers (desktop and laptop). It also provides me a way to have a public web URL to files that I place in the public area they provide. I am using this to show images. Quote Link to comment

+bladesedge Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 No weasels here . . . OK you beat me for the least amount of caches in your area! Quote Link to comment
+DENelson83 Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 Here's my area: I restrict my cache hunting to within a 10 km radius of where I live, just to save gas. Quote Link to comment
+Chrysalides Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 No weasels here . . . That's... tragic *sniff* Quote Link to comment
+Q10 Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 One half of us is from here (325 caches, scale 1km, not logged in): With the scale 2km, you get this message: Your search exceeded 500 caches Denmark is really a good area, if you are a Powercacher. What will this end with? Quote Link to comment
Mr.Yuck Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 It was actually much more interesting when ignored caches were shown on the maps, but they fixed that pretty recently. Quote Link to comment
+Nuttyguy Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 My current area (zoomed in to 2miles): Where I'm moving to in June: (zoomed into 1mile, as 2 miles exceeded 500) I cant wait! Quote Link to comment
Clan Riffster Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 Dead center on the Riffster Hacienda Dead center on my sock puppet's hacienda. (Sadly, my sock hasn't hidden or found any caches...) Quote Link to comment
+OienLabs Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 About 480 here. It is winter and I have been lazy. (Oslo, Norway) Quote Link to comment
+bramasoleiowa Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 Most of my finds are spread out, but I started looking at clearing out a 2mi radius from my home coordinates when I get back to the states. And then cache along the streetcar and light rail lines. Quote Link to comment
+The VanDucks Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 OK - I'm technically challenged so won't even try to post a map of my home caching area in northern Virginia - but I can tell you that there are an unbelievable number of ? caches - puzzle caches - around here! Search on the 20147 zip code if you don't believe me! Quote Link to comment
+Harry Dolphin Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I assume everyone is using free photobucket accounts ? Shh. Don't tell anyone. I saved mine to one of my missing geocoins. Quote Link to comment
+GeoGeeBee Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 It was actually much more interesting when ignored caches were shown on the maps, but they fixed that pretty recently. I didn't want to eliminate ignored caches, or show my smilies, so I logged out before I did the map search. Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I assume everyone is using free photobucket accounts ? Shh. Don't tell anyone. I saved mine to one of my missing geocoins. I use a missing TB page. There are over close to 200 photos saved to it. Quote Link to comment
+Ladybug Kids Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I assume everyone is using free photobucket accounts ? Shh. Don't tell anyone. I saved mine to one of my missing geocoins. I use a missing TB page. There are over close to 200 photos saved to it. My archived cache pages work well, too. Quote Link to comment
+bafl01 Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I cant zoom out to one mile scale without exceeding 500 caches Quote Link to comment
+genegene Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 (edited) Here is Pittsfield Mass at 2 miles. 3 miles goes past the limit. [/img] Edited January 19, 2010 by genegene Quote Link to comment

+spotter/g Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 here is my area. for caching almost 7 years, it sure looks like I am lazy! Quote Link to comment
