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".
