I guess I qualify. I started caching in late September 2002.
Although, I consider myself part of the "second generation" of Arizona
geocachers. There were (and still are) a handful of individuals who
paved the way for geocaching in Arizona. To them, we all owe a great
debt.
From: "Bill Nolan" <bill@freeholder.com> Subject: Re: [Az-Geocaching] Old School?Speaking of Wyle E... How many of you other oldtimers remember the time a
non-existent cache was "placed" in Phoenix not far from Wyle E's home.
I remember!! In fact, my first cache was a "Wyle E" puzzle cache (GC3788) Mission: Looney Tunes. AJ.JR had invited me along to help him "solve the puzzle." On our ride home from the cache, we marvelled that "Wyle E" had over 600 finds! We thought (then) that we could never approach that number. By the end of the year, I had 139 finds. Over the next 3 years, I averaged 725 finds per year.
In 2007, I had only 25 finds! I guess I was in hibernation mode that year.From: "Tahosa McCarthy" <Tahosa_the_Cacher@msn.com> Subject: Re: [Az-Geocaching] Soooo? Scott: Actually cachers never leave the game, they just hibernate for a short period of time.
How 'bout most (logged) DNF's? I'm at 246 (and counting.)From: "Victoria" <Hahnizona@cox.net> Subject: Re: [Az-Geocaching] Old School? Gotta love that! Competition for the least amount of finds with the most active hides?
