+Ramness Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 I logged just over 200 miles this weekend on the cache mobile for 5 caches. 2 on Friday evening, 1 Saturday morning, 2 Sunday afternoon. Oddly enough these caches were listed as being 7.1, 15.3, 15.8, 16.2, and 18.8 miles away. I probably could have gotten them all in one day for about 100 miles. Doh! This Isn't rocket science...

CacheMonkeez Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 More appropriately you could calcuate the number of miles traveled per cache. In your case it would be 40. I drove about 40 miles for 2 caches this weekend, for an average of 20 per cache. Of course, what happens when you have a no-find in your mileage? Quote Link to comment
+JoGPS Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Just over 500 miles and ten caches found and one put out. I went to Lexington KY for the first meeting of the local geocachers in the area. I was a great get together at a real nice restaurant, and I had a blast meeting all the nice folks there………………..JOE Quote Link to comment
+Desert_Warrior Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 I hiked about 50 miles in the last 9 days. Did maintenance on the three active caches I own, did some trail patrol in the State Park I volunteer in, and located 5 benchmarks, verifying that two are really missing, and three others are along the US-Mexico border. Also archived two other caches. One was an event, the other was stolen. Maybe it should be another thread... how far did you hike this weekend. Y-all have a great Monday... Mike.

+Planet Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 I got my car in March, it's got 18,000+ miles on it now. Almost 100 are from yesterday. Cache you later, Planet "To err is human, to forgive....$5.00" Quote Link to comment
+Allen_L Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 That was to attempt 3, of which I found 2. Of course the no find at Whiteside Mountain was the most interesting. Quote Link to comment

+altree Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 I put 110 looking at a area to put a new cache and then put 90 on Sunday going to 2 caches quote:if you have a p38 and a can of food you will not starve Altree Quote Link to comment
+Jennifer&Dean Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 We did over 400 miles and found 34 caches this weekend. We HAD to go to Spokane, WA to see Star Wars II at the IMAX there, so we made it a caching trip and had a blast. We've put a lot of miles on our car since we started, plus a new transmission. And a new oil pan on the car we rented while the transmission was being replaced! -Jennifer Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else. (JM Barrie) Quote Link to comment

+parkrrrr Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 I flew to Vegas and back, and cached while I was there. Does that count? Quote Link to comment
+Markwell Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Two trips out, total of five caches, one a revisit for a travel bug, one not found (I was on the wrong side of a river!). Markwell Chicago Geocaching Quote Link to comment
+Logscaler and Red Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Somewhere around 550 total, 22(?) finds and two misses. But we seen a lot of new country and revisited a lot of old stomping grounds. Quote Link to comment
+Greenback Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 I'm not all that proud to mention this but, I made three trips over a twelve our perior to find one cache. That was when I was hot for the idea of being first to find. 20 miles each way for a total of 120. Most miles in a single day was 385 to find twelve caches. Quote Link to comment
+KYtrex Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 250? Drove approximately 90 miles to the first Lexington, KY get together, another 40-60 around the Lexington area, and took the long way home at around 120 miles. Had a great time caching and meeting everyone from that area. Also got to meet jogps while he was in town. This weekend was tooooooooooo coooooooooool KYtrex ----------------- War doesn't determine who's right. War determines who's left Quote Link to comment
+BruceS Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 ZERO... it has been a while that I have not logged one geocaching mile in a weekend. Most miles driving in one day of caching 485 miles for 28 finds. Quote Link to comment

+Wadcutter Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 327 miles. 12 caches. Sunday. Quote Link to comment
mortonfox Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 I didn't check the odometer before I started. But since the core of the trip was to go to Philly for a few days and there were a number of side-trips for the caches, I'd say I drove about 300 miles for 15 caches. (20 miles per cache) Aside from those, there were 4 more caches but those were in the city so I didn't drive to them. Took a taxi. Quote Link to comment
+parkrrrr Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 Okay, so people are posting the number of caches, too. Well, then, I flew from Indiana to Nevada for a single not-found. What do I win? Quote Link to comment
+Team Tecmage Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 Approximately 160 miles for five finds, one no find. Dropped off two travel bugs, and retrieved one. Quote Link to comment
+Breaktrack Posted December 19, 2002 Share Posted December 19, 2002 Saturday we wound up in Galveston, which was the plan, after hitting nine caches in a planned route. Our starting point was New Caney, Texas and our ending point was the Candy Shop on the Strand in Galveston. Admittedly, this is a regular route of ours even when we are not caching...lol. Then supper at Joe's Crab Shack down by the docks while watching pelicans hunt for fish, and it was a great day. Sunday we didn't do squat.... "Trade up, trade even, or don't trade!!!"

+Ozarktroutbum Posted December 19, 2002 Share Posted December 19, 2002 Approx 150 miles for 3 caches last sunday. Probably 25 miles of that was on rough dirt roads. When GPSr's are outlawed, only Outlaws will have GPSr's. Quote Link to comment
