AZcachemeister Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 My Geocoin which serves the same purpose as your patch has (today) 110117 Miles on it (177216 KM). Quote Link to comment

+cx1 Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Congratulations to you all with your amazing travel distances. I have not been able to travel 20,000 km in probably the last 4 years total caching or not. Wish I could. My dang geo-coin has even gone farther then me and it was lost for 9 months Quote Link to comment
+releasethedogs Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 I have 55,187 KM (34292 miles) on mine. Quote Link to comment
+Fjordi Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 (edited) I am glad, that I do not own a travel tag for myself - I really do not want to know, how many miles and fuel I spent for caching But since January, at least our dog is trackable. Edited July 14, 2011 by Fjordi Quote Link to comment
+hzoi Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 According to GCStatistic, we have 122,060 miles (195,296 km) from cache to cache. But according to our tracker coin, we have 122,100 miles. No idea where the extra 40 miles came from. Makes no difference, I just like using the tracker coin so I can download the .kml file and look at the map in Google Earth. Quote Link to comment

Makes no difference, I just like using the tracker coin so I can download the .kml file and look at the map in Google Earth. I don't use a tracker coin but I've got a TB tag for my dog but only dip it into caches he's actually visited. According to my FindStatGen generated stats my current Cache-to-Cache distance is 124,585 miles, which works out to an average of 118 miles between the caches I have found. Quote Link to comment
+fizzymagic Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 I actually keep accurate records on the distances between true cache locations (finals for whereigos, multis and puzzles) and the exact order in which I found the caches. My experience is that the estimates you get from various statistics sites tend to be high by about 5-10%. Just this week I passed 450,000 miles (724,000 km). I go to Australia this fall which may get me to 500,000 miles before my tenth caching anniversary. Quote Link to comment

+NYPaddleCacher Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 ...which works out to an average of 118 miles between the caches I have found. Wow... You travel a lot, dont you? Mine works out to an average of 146 km per cache (90.7 mi). I do, but certainly not as much as someone that might work in sales or an airline. There have been a few trips that contributed significantly to those numbers. There were three to Africa (although for one of those I didn't find a cache), two to China (again, on my last trip I didn't find any caches), and several to Europe. I also have family in California (~2400 miles away) and have made a few vacation/business trips there. Quote Link to comment
XC_Tracker Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 We had 200,000 miles on our old GPS before we replaced it. I only dip our travel coin at neat caches along our travels so it doesn't gather our actual miles. -Tracker- Quote Link to comment

There was a thread awhile back where the OP asked for that stat. I don't recall who had the highest number but yours would certainly be in the running. Quote Link to comment
