RE: [Az-Geocaching] Major League Cacher and Cache Density

What if someone wanted to use a blue container with a white lid, or spawn mass-confusion by deliberately inter-mingling the containers? Oh, the insanity.

actually lets make that 128 GC.com plus 128 Navicaches plus 128 Terracaches and if the GC use red containers Navicache uses white and Terracaches use blue. thus avoiding confusion

I know I'm joining this party late, but I brought an extra one: 128 as follows

row     num cumulative side length

1       11          0.000

2       11        528.000

3       11       1056.000

4       11       1584.000

5       10       2041.261

6       11       2498.523

7       10       2955.784

8       11       3413.046

9       10       3870.307

10       11       4327.568

11       10       4784.830

12       11       5242.091

        128

Now the real question, in light of the earlier discussions around "power trails"... is this a "power grid" ;)

After I corrected my dumb error, I came up with 127. You can make one of the inbetween rows 11 as well and skip the triangles, but I don't think there is enough to do it twice, so it only adds one.

Bill's right : there's room to double up some square rows in the middle of the equilateral grid - probably enough to push the total to 128 or 129. Mathematicians will have to provide the best answer. Maybe I'll dump the question into the GC.com forums.

Also, did you know?-

The maximum number of caches you can fit in a square mile is 100? Well, that is IF GC.com actually stuck to their .1 "ahem"..."guideline".
