Found my tenth cache yesterday!

 

Not a huge number admittedly, but there's a lot of shoe leather gone into those ten caches, nearly every one was done solely on foot.

 

Cheers,

Glyn.

Well done to Themoorwehunt for sneaking past 12,000 finds when no-one was looking... and up here in Scotland too!

 

Lovely to catch up with you last week, albeit briefly before the post-CITO deluge hit us all!

a BIG WELL DONE to Jeff Bones (Bones1), plus Pat and the corgis, for reaching 10,000 caches last week. Amazing work!

Haven't they worn those poor dogs legs out yet?

Congratulations from both of us and our Corgis and Evil Beagle as well.

Does anyone know how many UK cachers have more than 10,000 finds?

 

I thought I was doing well with 1000 finds until I saw people who find that many in six months or less.

Cool, thanks for that. I stumbled upon a cacher in the US with just over 25,000 finds, so figured drsolly needs to get out caching more often :unsure:

We (Little QC and myself) found 7 different cache types in one day today. We had a lot of fun with this personal challenge.

Congratulations to me for reaching 250 caches, 600 benchmarks and 750 hills climbed yesterday. :laughing:

 

Wait, you have climbed 750 hills yesterday - in one day? Congratulations :)

But remember it's not about how many caches someone found. One might do 2 T5-caches, while another collects 50 1/1 micros. One might select the most remote cache, the most difficult puzzle or the longest multi, while another goes for a powertrail. One might write a detailed log for every one of his caches, while another writes hundreds of "TFTC" logs. Who do you appreciate more? Me the latter.

 

However, drsolly has not only found over 15000 soon 16000 caches, but also still writes detailed and interesting logs! Congratulations for THAT! :laughing:

The baby and I hit our 700th cache today. We've been caching now for just over 6 months, so we're really pleased with getting to 700. 99% of those have been with the buggy....we're now pros at negotiating stiles, gates and obstacles!

Got to 100 today - the Great Tithe Barn in Great Coxwell - near Faringdon in Oxon - Well worth a visit

 

That really is a spectacular cache. We all enjoyed that one, it is well worth a visit.

Found my 1000th Church Micro cache on Saturday, the first to 4 figures.

 

It's been a great journey and such a varied collection of churches visited along the way, some real crackers.

Thanks to SadExploration for starting the journey and for marshalling the series, long may it continue.

Went out on a wild. wet and windy day to the North end of the Isle of Man, simply to get to 500 caches. Achieved with 11 finds and three DNF. Rested for an hour by having a Pub Lunch in Kirk Micheal. Taken me a few years to get to 500 and will plod on for a few more years, maybe to reach 1,000?

Congratulations to connie159 on finding your 1000th at the weekend at Rampart Rise - Gold Cache

 

I only lent you my old Etrex last year to have a go at caching ..... and now you have overtaken me.

 

Also belated congratulations for backpacking and caching the Cleveland Way in the summer ....... and being the "first to complete the Cleveland Way Earthcache series during a continuous walk (7.5 days)".

Not sure what your final mileage was, but assume it was at least 110 miles. :anibad:

After a summer of health issues, we got out today, with the dogs as usual and found 14 caches, the last one being our 500th.

 

The dogs have gone off caching now :rolleyes:

 

 

Well done and you found one I was convinced had gone :lol:

Yay me! Got my 100th cache today. It was my goal to find 100 within my first year of caching. Not a vast amount granted, but I don't get too many opportunities to get out but hopefully next year I'll be able to grab a few more.

 

Bring on 2011...!!
