TheCacheSeeker Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 My record for most caches found in a day is 9. What about yours? Quote
+WRASTRO Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 About 36? I don't worry about these things too much. Quote
+WadeH Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 I think it was 20, not sure I'd want to even attempt more! LOL! Quote
+Chokecherry Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 10 and that was a full day. I'm happy if I get like 10 in a day. Quote
ao318 Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 I think around 20. It was a lot of micros that I prefer not to do but I was caching with someone else who wanted a friend to go out with them for the day and I volunteered. Quote
+Michaelcycle Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 25, a week ago today. All by bicycle. Quote
+Panther&Pine Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 14 on after/during a 10/10/10 event. I'll only try to break that if I'm in a more cache dense area, but even then... not sure about that. I was just in Portland OR and managed to log none. Quote
+MoonCatKDT & Peanut Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 20 - that was a full day dedicated to caching on trails that had them .1 mile apart. I would never try that not being on trails etc. Quote
+Vheather Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 Today was my biggest day with 16 ( in the snow). Quote
+Don_J Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 The most I have found in a day, on an actual hiking trail was 62 in 11 miles. We had a group of 17 that found 41 on a 12 mile hike, two Saturdays ago. Quote
+Trav'lin Two Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 595 in one day and we are lightweights. Quote
+Geo_Raptor Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 48 in 10 hour stretch...doing the cache shrink series. We were laughing at the each cache page description, as we walked around Burnaby Lake in BC. Quote
+Redfist Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 So... I'm curious to hear more from the 100+ people. Not just a number but also **HOW**? Is it via power trail or do you have a team account and split up an dense urban area? etc. Thanks Quote
+BAMBOOZLE Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 I think 120 one day last week........I really don't want to find many more than that. Quote
knowschad Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 110 Darned cats. You just have to do better than a dog, don't you? Quote
+GaRocketMan Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 We pushed it one day last fall and squeaked out 12 in a day. Quote
+Is_907 Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 So, I can easily believe 100 in a day... but seriously, how do you get 400+ in one day?? My personal best so far is 15. I've only been caching for a week and have done 15 in a day twice. It helped that I was out in NJ for a work trip and had nothing to do after 5PM but cache with trag_cachers! I recommend caching with an expert if you're new--made my first week way easier. Quote
prophet0doom Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 I just started so I'd have to say three Quote
+StarBrand Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 20 - Took about 4.5 hours and 50 miles of road driving. Quote
+Don_J Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 110 Darned cats. You just have to do better than a dog, don't you? I'm sure that you put in a lot more work. I just had to stop on the ET Hwy, 100 times. Quote
+Ecylram Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 The most I have found in a day, on an actual hiking trail was 62 in 11 miles. We had a group of 17 that found 41 on a 12 mile hike, two Saturdays ago. Most impressive stats so far, IMO. Quote
TheCacheSeeker Posted March 27, 2011 Author Posted March 27, 2011 My record for most caches found in a day is 9. What about yours? I found 9 today! Quote
+stinger503 Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 38, we just dominated a park in about 2 hours before an event. Then cached at the event until dusk. Quote
+GrateBear Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 17 for just a normal day. But, I've got two power trails I'm planning for when the snow melts, so that will be far surpassed. Just wondering how I'll long what may be 50 or 60. Can't see writing a long log for each one Quote
+lamoracke Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 (edited) 101 in White Rock BC. There was a cache machine but we really did not pay too much attention to the route. (2 of us) Definitely the #s matter if its power trail or not. Getting 101 in a city you are not familiar with is a lot different than a power trail. Most likely will never cache 24 hours straight again, too crazy for me. Edited March 27, 2011 by lamoracke Quote
+TK7464 Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 161 doing several power trails at once. I started at midnight and went till I couldn't go no more. I did them all solo The Geocoin Hwy (Archived) The Wishbone (Archived) No Clue Quote
+Mr. Wilson & a Mt. Goat Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 I set a new personal best today of 76. Went to an event then did a 60cache powertrail nearby. Took 7 hours from the start of the event until we left town. I set a personal best on my bike this month of 42 caches in a day, took about 10hours, but it wasn't a powertrail... I was sore after that! Quote
+Wadcutter Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 127 on mostly a power trail near NOLA on 12/29/09. 2nd most finds in a day was 88 on 07/31/09. Those weren't on a power trail. Quote
+Clint Cachewood Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 Just got started geocaching. I got 6 last week. Today i am going hardcore and hope to get 10. Quote
+palmetto Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 (edited) oops Edited March 27, 2011 by palmetto Quote
+GeoGeeBee Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 I don't know, hang on while I go look at my profile... 10. Quote
+NYPaddleCacher Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 31 for me. I had a full day free after a meeting at Google in Mountain View. I spent the day meandering towards SFO for a late flight back home. It's interesting to see a few 500+ daily finds. With the proliferation of PTs I would imagine that there are quite a few with totals that high. Prior to 2009 when the guidelines changed the number of geocachers with 100+ daily finds was probably pretty low compared to the number of geocachers with 500+ finds that we see today. Quote

+BaylorGrad Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 22, all on bicycle. On a beautiful December day in Houston. George Bush Park. Home of over 250 caches. I'm going back the next time I visit my parents. Quote
Andronicus Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 (edited) 13 Me too. I just did 13 in one calendar day last week. In 24h, it would be 17. After the 13, I found 4 more just after 0000h. All on foot. Walked about 13.5 km after supper and 3 beer. Edited March 27, 2011 by Andronicus Quote
+Mopshase12 Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 546 Ehhhhhm ... Junkie?! I think, I have 12 or 13 Quote
+ValHamilton Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 512 caches in one day on 03/19/2011 on Route 66 in California. We stopped at 500 on the power trail and finished it the next day. Quote
+Frowny Face Society Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 Our number stands at 20 so far. We hope to try and best it sometime this year. Quote
+Chrysalides Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 Managed to get 26 in a day once. Probably could have gotten a few more, but it wasn't as much fun after so many. Lesson learned : if I want a big numbers run, I have to abort DNFs a lot quicker, and cache with a friend. Quote
+ventura_kids Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 We found 1157 in one 24 hour run. We also found 824, and 566 on 2 other runs. However, the most caches we found NOT in a row, was 413 near Denver, in one day. A normal day for us is around 70 caches in daylight. Quote
+Alkhalikoi Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 35 on a loop from North Lake Tahoe up through Quincy, back down the Feather River on CA-70, then Sierra Nevada Brewery for dinner in Chico, then back down to the Bay Area. We didn't even try to stop for all the caches on the route, but had a PQ for all of them. Then just stopped whenever we felt like it and a cache or two was coming up. We'd gotten 24 or so the day before on our way up to Tahoe. That was really about my limit. I probably could do 50 in a day, but after a while it's too much for me. The power trails just aren't my bag. Most on foot was probably 10 or 12 on a 7-8 mile hike. Quote
+Redfist Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 We found 1157 in one 24 hour run. We also found 824, and 566 on 2 other runs. However, the most caches we found NOT in a row, was 413 near Denver, in one day. A normal day for us is around 70 caches in daylight. 1157 in 24 hours is almost 1 per minute (48.2 / hour). How do you travel 528 feet per minute while caching? Call me confused... Quote
