+GeocachingAdam Posted June 30, 2007 Posted June 30, 2007 I am 36. The GeoWife is 23. The kids are 5, 4 and almost 2. And then I have three older children who sometimes, on rare occasions hunt with me and they are 14, 13, and 11.
+Dakota Jim Posted June 30, 2007 Posted June 30, 2007 (edited) Perhaps the question should really be: How old is the average Geocacher on the inside? The outside tends to age, but many of us stay the same age on the inside . . . . while I look 73 on the outside, my optomitrist said my eyes look I am 12 years old on the inside. So, I am guessing I never got older than 12 on the inside. Edited June 30, 2007 by Dakota Jim
Team_Merchlinsky Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 I am 26 and my wife will be 23 in August, although she tells me I look much older...whatever that means....lol
+vortexecho Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 My guess is that it is more popular with older people (35-50) than the younger folks... I could be wrong. Please don't misinterpret my age range, I'm not saying 35 to 50 is "being old"! I think your old when you stop moving!!! lol... by the way, I'll be 33 this month... me 35 grandmother 82 she never drove a car she walks everywhere, i give out before her everytime
+Huffy1 Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 54 sooon to be 55 and I must be old cause I stopped moving as soon as I get home from the salt mine.
+topekan Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 I am 73 and my wife a little younger. We found 3 caches today. Going to the KC area tomorrow to look for more.
+mousekakat Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 I'm 41, hubby turns 30 in about 7 weeks, one daughter is 7 and the other is 13 months. Key the mutt is 3 years
+ecfackler Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 I'm 37, my husband will be 37 (in a few weeks) and our kids our 6 and 3... the 6 yr old begs to go caching and the 3 yr old loves to find "treasure boxes".
+wayfarer222 Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 GeoHubby is 52 and I'm 45, but tell everyone I'm 35. In fact, I know lots of women who have been 35 for years. Chris
+blaird83 Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 myself (bryan) 23 my wife (leanne) 23 our son (dylan) 1. dylan only goes when we can't find a baby sitter and it depends on the terrain.
+pixieslayer Posted July 7, 2007 Posted July 7, 2007 I'm 26, and AT Hiker Wannabe is 2, so our average age is 14 . As for WW2 vets who cache, my grandfather will go caching with us sometimes if it doesn't involve long car rides or tough terrain. He's found about 4 with us, I think. He's nearly 83 now. He's living in his hometown, and it's actually pretty cool to go caching there with him because he remembers how it was in the 30s. We don't get to see my grandparents too often, but one of the unexpected benefits of ATHW caching with his great grandpa is that they both have a really good time together.
+muddy frogs Posted July 7, 2007 Posted July 7, 2007 HEy who's adding this up anyway? I want to know the average age eventually.... I'm 51, wife 29. This may skew the results just a bit....
+desync0 Posted July 7, 2007 Posted July 7, 2007 I'm 26, when I manage to drag her along my room mate is 23.
+Miragee Posted July 7, 2007 Posted July 7, 2007 HEy who's adding this up anyway? I want to know the average age eventually.... I'm 51, wife 29. This may skew the results just a bit.... I don't know who is adding it up . . . Anyone wanna volunteer . . .
+lakedawgs Posted July 8, 2007 Posted July 8, 2007 I'm 37 (38 next month), hubby is 41 and son is 5. We've been to a few events and the age range really is all over the place. At our last meet, we had everything from pregnant moms and toddlers to retired seniors with great-grandkids. It was a nice mix.
+OEnavigators Posted July 8, 2007 Posted July 8, 2007 My wife and I are both 35.( I am sure glad she doesn't read the forums ) Oldest son explorerJ is 12, middle son is 6, and the twins are 4 (boy/girl) She looks older though!
+ZachMJ2345 Posted July 9, 2007 Posted July 9, 2007 My girlfriend and I are both 23. She hasn't been out yet but we plan to get her first sometime this week. I haven't been out there looking suspicious in almost 3 years... it's about time I get back to it.

+waddell/crain team Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Waddell is 31 and Crain (me) is 30 and the Crain kids are 3 & 5. The people who got me started on geocaching were in their 50's I think.
