How Many States Have You Cached In?

I'd like to know how you did that with the S&T maps......

I think he used MapPoint.

I agree. I was in Orlando over the weekend and I kept seeing cache locations go by the car window.

Been there so many times.

March 9, 2005

Trying again to show my 18 states, and I also have finds in Great Britain and Canada

The sad thing is how many states I've been in that I haven't been able to cache in, cause of my traveling companions. That's where you get a little frustrated.

Yeah, that can be a problem. I'm going to be going to Arizona the first weekend in April and I'll be traveling with some non-geocachers. Hopefully, I'll be able to convince them to go after a couple and maybe get them hooked on it.

Actually it just a matter of using GSAK to sort by cache type, then importing to MSST then adding the custom icons.

The RED states are the ones I've found caches in.

March 11, 2005

Only Ontario here, but I'm going to Florida next month and I'm hoping to double my amount of cache finds while I am down there and maybe heading into Georgia or other surronding states for "states cached in" factor

March 11, 2005

Also I'm looking at streets and tips and I have a feeling that map is generated with pushpins.. I'm playing with it now.. hope to have a map to post in a bit

March 11, 2005

in addition to the states i've cached in so far, i will get to add

arkansas

louisiana

mississippi

alabama

florida

georgia

s carolina

n carolina

and washington dc

all within the month of may =)

(well, washington dc will be in the next couple of weeks, but everything else will be in the month of may )

then i'm moving back home to massachusetts, which means all of new england will be mine!!! MINE!!!!! *maniacal laughter follows*

sorry - got a little carried away...

Ok so ya... with streets and and trips you just use push pins with an imported cache image to mark your caches.

I would have had a nice map except SandT decided it would crash while I was half way through placing my caches on the map.. so .. project for another night

It looks really sharp

How do you find out where you have been? It's pretty easy if you have done only a few, but after 250 finds, I'd like to be able to download a list. I tried pocket queries, but it requires an origin and won't search more than 500 miles away. Next, I went to hide and seek a cache page and searched for all caches found by TAT. This generated 13 pages to download and any caches that are archived are not dowloaded. That wiped out OK and IN.

There must be a better way!

If you have fewer than 500 finds, you can get all your (non-archived) finds in one pocket query. Go to the "State" box and select them all. It doesn't require an origin or search radius.

I'm working on this map first:

I knew there had to be a trick. But, is there a trick to getting the rest of the world? In my case it's not to hard, just Canada, Ireland and Germany. That can be covered in just 2 more PQs.

Thanks for the help. Map to follow soon.

Where'd you find the map of North America? It could use some scaling down, but I've been through one part of Canada and will be visiting another this summer. I'd like to make a new map with that part included. (I can also include Mexico, but not for caching)

Edited March 12, 2005 by Team GPSaxophone

March 12, 2005

The four corners and the middle of the lower 48.

When I ran the PQ, it turns out that Canada, Ireland and Germany do get added to the list! But, what's missing is every cache that has been archived. I manually added them to the list. I also took off This old syle hitchhiker because I never found a cache in Iowa! Yet :lol:

I can't believe some of the states that I haven't found a cache in!

Actually, I use ArcMap. I have a shapefile with the locations of all of my finds and layer that on top of the maps I want to display:

I've had it for so long now that I can't remember. You could probably save the pic onto your desktop and then use it.

I have come close to finding an Ohio and Kentucky cache, but didn't get the chance when I got close. Should have Ohio by the summer! Ontario too.

only four.

March 17, 2005

Two as of today (California and Nevada) but hopfully five by the end of next week. We are taking a road trip from Nevada to Omaha, Nebraska. Hope to find at least one each in Utah, Wyoming and Nebraska - specifically Salt Lake City, Cheyenne and Omaha areas.

Cached in folowing states

Never mind. Dial up is so slow not getting to the page. Use your imagination and see a map with every state west of the Mississippi colored in red except North Dakota, Sout Dakota, and Askansas.

states cached in

That's the best I can do.

41 so far - hoping to finish most of the lower 48 this summer. Then the new goal - not to appear to be just a tourist! :huh:

I like the category option - thanks for sharing the site. I'm going to change the map on my profile.

I track my finds in a GSAK data base labeled Found_Stats, and can then sort by state.

May 16, 2005

Well, here's where we stand at the moment:

Not as many as some, but not bad in my estimation. We'll be adding Mexico to the list this sumer as well!

May 16, 2005

Just 5 left coast states (and 1 provence) and Tennessee. Mostly one state though. Next week, I'll add Florida.
