How far can you go...or have been

We can all find out who our top cache locators are. But who has travelled the furthest?

Since August 06 = 9234km. I'm sure some of our early starters must have astronomical distances travelled finding bits of plastic.

Let the challenge begin.

Approximate cache-to-cache distance: 630,033.69 miles (1,013,940.93 kilometres)

Not sure that's quite right

6,6481.17 miles (106,991.07 kilometres)

That could be right... maybe. Given some of my caches have been found overseas thats a lot of plane travelling kilometres included. Still, seems an awful lot....

Well now that you've joined, maybe another graph or chart needs to be done that's a bit more accurate?

Sigh

Approximate cache-to-cache distance: 3634.96 miles (5849.9 kilometres)

never mind we will double that in the next 6 weeks - two trips to NSW planned.

20575.25 kilometres, which would be about accurate for us.

I believe that this will only be accurate if you regularly log your caches in the same order you found them.

EDIT: Oh... and it looks like I'm the only Australian who's bothered to set their country... at least that puts me at the top of the table for Australian's

I should add a few more to that over the next couple of weeks with trips to melbourne then perth. will be interesting to see how much it actually adds on to the total

I made the world top 10 for a long log.

Was for the Dubbo Gold Rush.

Garners outstrip me on just about everything on the Australian list.

25797.51 kilometres

Shortest log: 1 word - Number of one-word logs: 2 (one was 'Exactly' and the other was '?'

)

Meh, most of the other stats are already here on GCA.... http://geocaching.com.au/cacher/statistics/CraigRat

24385.89 miles (39245.29 kilometres), though i believe this could be a bit on the low side

78297.79 miles (126008.08 kilometres)

There's a few caches in the US there, although they were all on the same trip, so only one flight included.
Also, if Mama Bear was finding and logging caches in Perth while Papa Bear was doing the same back home in NZ, that might've ping-ponged a few times, adding 10,000km a time!

Everytime we drive the Silver Bullet we cache ! So for road trips 36980.km's in 2 years

How do you calculate your KM's travelled?

EDIT: Disregard this silly question
