Exploring Life

Geocaching, geocoins and the many roads of life.

This is made up of stories from my caching and my reviewing.  It is a collection of those along with comments and thoughts.  Photos, and maps of some adventures and lists of some of the oldest caches.

Oldest Caches

August 15, 2010  /  Dick Nielson

I recently went on a hunt for the oldest remaining caches.

I found a list of the first 100 caches but not the oldest so I grabbed the original 100 list and updated it to the oldest remaining.  It is on the Navigation table on the left.

There were a few things that surprised me

  • Only 5 stateside options for May 2000
  • Nine options for June 2000 and three were in Idaho
  • Six stateside options for July 2000 (two in Colorado)
  • Only Three remaining caches for Aug 2000, Potters Ponds in Utah, a Georgia, and Michigan
  • Georgia has the most old caches at 5
  • Idaho has 4
  • Colorado, Kansas, and Oregon each have 3

Just another numbers thing.. if i ever get around to it I may add more
