+geocat Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 I do not KNOW where the most inacessable geocache is, but you might want to check out GC8074. GeoCat Quote Link to comment

M&Ms Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 Our bid for the title is HADIDAH'S METEORITE (GCAA76). It requires two days off-road driving across the desert in temperatures that can reach 50°C. You need to carry everything with you including fuel and water. We have set a few more that require a proper expedition to bag but this one is the prince of them all. It is likely that someone can beat it but it may take some doing. Of interest is that this cache is at the site of one of the last meteorites to hit the Earth. Given its inaccessibility the site remains almost pristine with the ground strewn with the Pearls of Adze a black glass formed by the intense heat when the meteorite blasted through the sand into the limestone substrata below.

That is more than I have ever seen to be watching a cache. I am somewhat feeling negative that the cacher is an engineer helping in Iraq, but hell that's just me. Someone's gotta keep the power up in all those palaces. Quote Link to comment

Someone's gotta keep the power up in all those palaces. why would you feel negative about someone who may be of iraqi descent? that seems a bit racist to me, those people simply have a different way of life and system of beliefs than those of us in the first world and in actual fact support for the amercian offensive against iraq is rather soft outside england.

That is more than I have ever seen to be watching a cache. Could it be that this cache was actually placed by General Franks? The 37 folks watching it include Rumsfeld and folks at the State dept? You never know.... they *do* have access to the best GPS equipment available!!! Quote Link to comment

+CoronaKid Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 Not only is this one IN a volcano, it's also in Ethiopia. You can't get much more inaccessible than that. http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=46551 Be sure and check out the pictures they have posted. Now these are truly EXTREME geocachers! --CoronaKid Quote Link to comment

+treemoss2 Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 OK, so the ones that have been mentioned here are all a long ways for most of us. What about the most inaccessible, remote caches in the lower 48? How do you go about searching for such caches (on the website, not the ground)? Quote Link to comment
+SuperMadCachers Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 I don't know what they most inaccessable cache is but I've always thought it would be pretty cool if someone put a geocache on Everest. Anyone want to take that challenge? www.larsenfamily.com family@larsenfamily.com Quote Link to comment
+Jennifer&Dean Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 Super Mad Cachers: check out the thread in The Hunt/The Unusual for Anyone Put a cache on Everest? There is a cache with a view of Everest. Noone has found it yet,I believe. -Jennifer http://opentopic.Groundspeak.com/0/OpenTopic?a=tpc&s=1750973553&f=3810966883&m=8880903845 Where am I going? I ain't certain. When will I get there? I don't know. All as I know is I am on my way! Quote Link to comment
