Most Widespread Multi?

Can anyone point me to a multi-stage cache that has the most distance from the first location to the final cache?

 

I have come up with a real devil of an idea....I want to see how novel it is.

Here is one that requires several hundred miles of driving (3 states) and 4 healthy hikes:

Tri-State Multi-Cache

 

It is actually 4 seperate caches. In order to get the final one, you must find the other 3 first so the final is the multi.

Try this one...No More Mr. Nice Guy (GC7A0D). It stretches for atleast a few hundred KMs, and also has 1 hike thta is 10km round trip and another where you need a boat/ferry to get to

We also have the Northern California Solar System Model series of caches, which require about a 500+ mile drive to nab them all. It's not a multi cache though, but a series of caches. Personally, I would try to make them into a series rather than a single multi cache if long distances are involved.

The longest multi that I've done is niskibum's The Odyssey. It is almost 100 miles long and takes you on a loop of scenic areas in the Idaho Panhandle. It's an excellent cache (as are all of niskibum's caches), although I know it is a bit much for a lot of people. We hit a bunch of other caches along the way and ended up driving over 350 miles that day.

Good point. Travelling several hundred miles to claim one find is discouraging.

But if you made each of the series an actual cache, and each of them held a different part of the coords for the final cache, then people could claim the individuals as they went, but would have to get all of them in order to claim the final.

The Are you the one? series. Has 10 caches, each with a clue to the final and there is even a bonus cache. I do not know the total distance, maybe someone who actually completed the whole thing will speak up.

This one involved a 400 mile drive according to the logs. Its now archived. And this one involves a drive of 500+ miles according to one log. The latter is listed as an event cache, but its still active so I'm sure it could still be logged. Both took most people multiple days to log. Edited by briansnat

I am working on one that would start in NJ, Second Stage in GA, Third Stage in CO and a final in PA.

 

It will need a local cacher in each area to watch over each stage. IF I can make this fly it will be a true multi stage cache not 3 cache that lead you to a fourth.

1 cache, a few thousand miles to complete. I figure it will not get a lot of finds. But I'm betting ClayJar logs it as an FTF just because of the way he drives

 

Figure to see this in the late spring

Interesting...very similar to what I was thinking about doing (with the exception of heading out to CO, simply because I know of no one out that far west really).

 

I am also considering one that requires a trip to NE Spain to complete....

 

I would not be expecting many completions...but I also considered allowing tag-team activity on it (similar to other country2country connection caches).

 

My last idea was to do an I-95 cache where everything is a rest stop along I-95 from Maine to Florida...

 

Just some ideas...anyone can implement them if they want...

try the MOTHER OF ALL CACHES series in s.c. 3 multi's, each one carrying you across the state from n.c. to ga. each gives 1/3 of the info to find a 4th cache. they are very well done and require quite a bit more than the average. -harry

Well, up until yesterday I had a multi that required about 125 miles all total, but when I got home I fixed the typo, which brought it back down to the intended 3 miles.

If you want a part in RI or SE Mass I'll help you.

Well, it's not necessarily a multi in the purest sense of the word, but the European International MultiCache #1 (IMC) is spread in 15 different European countries. To find the so called secondary cache, you have to a ) find all the primary caches or b ) cooperate with the finders of primary caches other IMC countries.

 

Edit: the stupid b ) thing which turned out to be a smiley :mad:
