Unfortunately the stats went away years ago after geocaching.com decided that the services that we were giving away for free for years conflicted with their new features that were similar.
We received letters from their lawyers telling us to stop competing with them and when we pointed out that we weren't competing with them, that they were competing with us, they blocked our servers from being able to reach their servers.

I did managed to pull a last round of stats a couple of years after they cut us off and what the stats said was they had killed the geocaching community in Arizona and reduced the amount of geocaching going on to about 1/10th the rate that is had been going in the past.

The annoying part was that when we were approached about donating money to our website we would require that the person first subscribed to geocaching.com, so they really shot themselves in the foot money wise...

I wish we could bring back the caching stats.  After we were forced to take those off line there was an immediate and gigantic dip in the amount of caching that was going on.... and I miss having to explain what "Cache Karma" was :)

I haven't been able to see messages for the past month. I'm trying to figure out how to correct it. Thank you

The list has been quite for a while.

Is anyone caching anymore?  Or is there just not a lot to say about
Geocaching that hasn't already been said.

I cannot "like" azgeocaching.com to Facebook.  There are several items posted daily to this site on fb per others who access it daily through fb, but when I ask fb to search for this group it says there is no such group.
