Who has the record for the most geocaches found?

[colefish]

Just wondering who has the geocache record.

Also, has anybody found all of them in the US?

I know somebody has probably asked this before but I just want to know the most recent stats.

Thanks,

Cole

Nobody has, or is likely ever to, come close.

Impossible given caches are published constantly every day, often in the same spots a prior one was. I remember an interview that Rey Del Roble with somebody on the radio or something had and I remember one line from it. It mentioned that he will probably find every cache in Washington State. I went, yeah right. Just not possible.

And of course found it logs don't necessarily = the number of caches found. I have no idea about how Alamogul caches, but there are a lot of "numbers" cachers who log found its whether or not they found a cache.

I doubt there is anyone who has found all of the caches in Rhode Island, nevermind the entire US.

[colefish]

I get the point

[+Alkhalikoi]

I seriously doubt Alamogul is making anything up, doing throw-downs or anything else other than finding a whole lot of caches. I cache in the same general neighborhood as he does and I've probably run into him at caches more than anyone else. He's semi-retired and caching is what he does. No idea how he has the energy for it, but I have absolutely no reason to think he's anything other than legit.

[+jellis]

And even being an old fart he is, he can still out hike me. You can bet he will die while caching.

Old fart, he is not all the old. But he has the energy.

I remember when finding 10,000 was the most anyone had found. Now there are some 1200 people with more finds than that.

I was just looking at alamogul's stats and how is it possible to cache in 51 states when the USA has only 50 states???

Washington, DC I believe

Scrolling down a bit in the list of states in Alamogul's stats, I saw:

 

District of Columbia     9

In the era of "team" caching, who knows what people will claim in the future

[+MisterE250]

Claim is the key word - considering I don't consider power trails real caching, that'll take off a ton. Just my opinion though, for what it is or isn't worth.

If your ever lucky enough to meet him, Alamogul will give you one of his baseball type cards with his stats and photo. And if your nice he might autograph it.

How does he manage to keep them up to date? Must throw away lots of cards for the new ones he just got printed.

I remember when Moun10bike reached 1000 finds, the first one to do that. I sent him a note to ask if he would continue caching. Actually I said I wanted to know if there was "life after 1000 finds".

I sure hope so.

Good GOD Lee. Last time I checked your stats you had under 50K.

[+Trucker Lee]

Got me wondering, and thanks for the link above. Only 55 more finds and I can crack the top 500 in Texas.
