While no where near the number of caches found, etc. of others, I have
managed a couple of personal milestones yesterday. <br>
I have been concentrating lately on the more "historic" caches in
Arizona lately. I tend to pass by newer caches while on my way to older
caches.<br>
<br>
1) 1,300 total caches. Finally. I have not been too active at caching
lately, so my number curve has flattened significantly.<br>
<br>
2) All of the Arizona active GCXX caches found. In order of finds, and
who I was with:<span id="CacheLogs"><font face="Verdana" size="2"><br>
GC7B - T824 Table Mesa - AZJedi.<br>
GC57 - Geocache - My daughter MarimibaEmma (Rachel)<br>
GCED - Senda de Tonto - Rachel<br>
GC92 (in Portland, Or) - My son Adam<br>
GC7E - Adam<br>
GCFE - Diablo Point. - Rachel. Right in my backyard. My first real
south mountain hike, and me having lived in Phoenix most of my life. It
was about time.<br>
<br>
There were two more GCXX caches in Arizona. Both are archived. <br>
GC95 Metro Pecan - The first AZ urban cache - but it lasted from Oct
2000 to May 2001. It was beaten with a bat to the death.<br>
GCB5 Rock Corral - This lasted from Nov 2000 to Feb 2001. Someone
took it.<br>
<br>
5 out of 7 still active. Not a bad record overall I would say.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Now, to start on the GCXXX caches.... There are many more of them. I am
counting 47 active. A bit more difficult to obtain them all. I count a
history of about 101 GCXXX caches in Arizona. Of those, 54 have been
archived. I have found now 6 of the total 102, with two of these now
archived. So, I have a long ways to go (43), and much hiking required.
And, boy, am I out of shape. We shall see.<br>
<br>
<br>
So, I wonder, who else among the AZ Cachers has gotten all the GCXX
caches?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
And, at last, a question, what are your quests, if any, in caching
terms? <br>
* Count? <br>
* Specific caches?<br>
* Just fun?<br>
* ???<br>
