Same problem we were solving before, just with a square that is 528' shorter on a side, so it is 4752 on a side. That means you get 10 in the long rows and 9 in the short rows (triangle pattern for max density). Rows are still 457.261' apart, except you can put a couple the full 528 apart and get extra rows of 10. I think 96 is right.

I should be more specific...I was trying to figure out how many caches can fit into a square mile, leaving enough buffer zone (.05 mile) around the edges, so each square mile around the area in question can also have the same amount of caches? Any math geniuses out there? Anyone? Scott and I were discussing this today, and also called it a "Power Grid"... Maybe on Terracaching.com....thinking, thinking..... _____ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
