[Az-Geocaching] Major League Cacher and Cache Density

[Tim Giron]

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" ;)
