I think Farmer brown would have to take the cake for distance to his First un found cache being 121km then only a further 12 caches between there and 200km

Captain Terror take it from me caching is much more enjoyable from the geocycle. \:D/ They only invented the car to go caching up those little hills in the distance \:D/
Hahahahaha....I agree, I have done about 400-500 on my bike in two states!
It is much quicker on the bike, zipping between one way streets and making a driving distance of 5 km into a 2km ride, hee hee.

Cache Density:
Excludes caches which are archived or temporarily unavailable / disabled.
Within 5km radius
There are 15 unfound caches
Within 10 km radius
There are 295 caches (142 unfound: 48.14%) [my problem here is that the City is 9km from my house]
Within 20 km radius
There are 1,148 caches (832 unfound: 72.47%)
Within 30 km radius
There are 1,684 caches (1,353 unfound: 80.34%)
Within 40 km radius
There are 1,937 caches (1,589 unfound: 82.03%)
Within 50 km radius
There are 2,124 caches (1,764 unfound: 83.05%)

It kinda helps me that the ocean is all but absolving the western side of my radius density!!
On the down side however, I don't usually ride long distances so having done sooooo many around me, I really have no other choice but to catch the train into the city and ride & cache on the other side excluding the mountains.
I really need to just travel interstate more often I think!!

Fairly typical stats for regional SA.

Within 10 km radius: 60 caches (2 unfound: 3.33%)
Within 20 km radius: 106 caches (2 unfound: 1.89%)
Within 30 km radius: 131 caches (2 unfound: 1.53%)
Within 40 km radius: 162 caches (3 unfound: 1.85%)
Within 50 km radius: 222 caches (12 unfound: 5.41%)

The two persistent caches unfound within 30 km are both caches that we no longer look for and are blocked in GSAK.

These numbers will change dramatically if a couple of things in the pipeline come to fruition over the next few months :mrgreen:

Cache Density
Within 10km there are 24 caches 0 unfound
Within 20km there are 41 caches 1 unfound
Within 30km there are 83 caches 15 unfound
Within 40km there are 122 caches 39 unfound
Within 50km there are 135 caches 46 unfound =34.07%

Nearest unfound is 18.6km. BUT as I have knee problems and it is a Terrain 3 it might not be :-k possible. The next one also needs a 4x4 and I don't have one of them. SO my closest gettable cache for me is 25km. I really should do it but others have enticed me further afield

Within 10 km radius
There are 270 caches (236 unfound: 87.41%)

Within 20 km radius
There are 772 caches (719 unfound: 93.13%)

Within 30 km radius

There are 1,409 caches (1,343 unfound: 95.32%)

Within 50 km radius
There are 1,474 caches (1,406 unfound: 95.39%)

So, i broke my only kind of GPS (iphone, whoops), is that a good enough excuse?

My nearest unfound is a mere 500m away from me, and i...like to cast a blind eye towards multi-caches. expecially because no one's found it in ages. and because..i'm cache blind too.
Nearest traditional is ..1.5km away. 5 times i've tried..and still DNF'd.

Living in the Adelaide Hills with several National Parks and Conservation Parks very close by.
  • Lots of puzzle caches
  • Zytheran caches everywhere :shock:
  • 20 caches >= terrain 4
Sigh :|

I need more interstate trips :)

Statistics can be so misleading...my "nearest" unfound to home is actually 930km away, its an offset multi with GZ in Adelaide. My second nearest is a mystery-multi with GZ 30-40km away in the depths of Namadgi; my third nearest is only 3.7km away but at 8m up a tree is well out of my reach!

Within 10 km radius
There are 510 caches (93 unfound: 18.24%)

Within 20 km radius
There are 1,022 caches (333 unfound: 32.58%) or within the 10-20km doughnut there are 512 caches (240 unfound: 46.9%)

Within 30 km radius
There are 1,240 caches (497 unfound: 40.08%) or within the 20-30km doughnut there are 218 caches (164 unfound: 75.2%)

Within 40 km radius
There are 1,366 caches (608 unfound: 44.51%) or within the 30-40km doughnut there are 126 caches (111 unfound: 88.1%)

Within 50 km radius
There are 1,477 caches (710 unfound: 48.07%) or within the 40-50km doughnut there are 111 caches (102 unfound: 91.9%)

Gee I really need to venture out to those 40+km areas!

Cache Density:

Within 10 km radius
There are 16 caches (3 unfound: 18.75%)
Within 20 km radius
There are 104 caches (18 unfound: 17.31%)
Within 30 km radius
There are 208 caches (57 unfound: 27.4%)
Within 40 km radius
There are 313 caches (101 unfound: 32.27%)
Within 50 km radius
There are 472 caches (205 unfound: 43.43%)

I don't look for any & all caches so the number I've yet to find in this range is considerably less than displayed.

Dont tell me that you're referring to "All strung out"? I had fun placing that one :twisted: Kudos to MtBikeroz for adopting my canberra caches. My caching karma would be massive compared to what it is now without my canberra hides *sad face*

Ive been planting more than ive found just recently, trying to encourage others up here to do the same so i can find more closer to home :lol:

Within 10 km radius
There are 63 caches (29 unfound: 46.03%)

This is embarrassing..
Within 10 km radius
There are 269 caches (234 unfound: 86.99%)
Within 20 km radius
There are 777 caches (715 unfound: 92.02%)
Within 30 km radius
There are 1,301 caches (1,224 unfound: 94.08%)
Within 40 km radius
There are 1,478 caches (1,395 unfound: 94.38%)
Within 50 km radius
There are 1,545 caches (1,460 unfound: 94.5%)

(Nearest unfound is 300m away. wait, that's mine! no, nearest is still the multi 500m down the road..and the nearest traditional that i havent found is still the one a km away..that i still cant find..)


I blame living in canberra. :stabby
