I have visited one 5420 miles from home and I own one 5119.7 miles from home (from the days when holiday caches were allowed <_< ) the one I own has now had 525 visits something that will take any cache in the U.K. a long time to beat.

Where can you find the distance on the GC website?

If you look at the logs for the cache in question and then select view log on a seperate page the distance will be listed below the cache name with an indication of the cache direction from your home co-ords.

If I'm allowed to include a cache I which placed myself, the distance is 3,830.023miles. Forum rules about advertising caches preclude me from mentioning its name, but it's somewhere on the Tropic of Cancer in Oman

 

If I'm also allowed to include a cache which I placed and subsequently archived as it was muggled before FtF, then the distance is 3,933.744 miles. I think I can mention the name of that one (Eastern Sultanate) because it no longer exists.

You're allowed to mention and link any caches that you like, just don't spam the board with your own "just hiddens" & "come and finds".

Beat this: :rolleyes:

 

11556.7mi from your home coordinates.

Drat! I can't!

 

My furthest is 4897.6 miles - in Portland, Oregon.

 

The cache is called "The Tap" and it was very obvious to me when I found it. But that's because I speak English... :-)

Did a bit more checking, but I still can't beat roolku, however, my furthest actually seems to be Hollywood Reservoir at 5427.7miles...

 

Almost exactly a year ago (17th January last year)

aha, a stats game we can contribute to:

 

furthest found 11621mi from home coordinates

 

furthest placed 11342.4mi from home coordinates. This has now been removed due to the high number of muggles reported in the area.

 

closest placed (for what its worth) 5mi from home coordinates.

 

Not bad for very occasional caching

10,736 miles from home, 2 hours south of Sydney, and it is also the coolest place I have been to caching.

 

Even my Australian brother-in-law couldn't find the place in this photo: Gosangs tunnel, and he was a local... so imagine his surprise when a) I knew about it, and :rolleyes: could get us to it.

 

This cave is half way up a cliff, you walk to it along the edge of the cliff and drop off the edge to this ledge. The crack in the floor goes right down to the sea about 20 metres below, and the tunnel goes right through to the other side of the peninsula, about 40 metres I think and lowering in headroom to about 1 metre. Very impressive.
