Hi Folks,
I'm active in the New York geocaching community, and just for kicks I've started working on a bookmark list of the caches with the most finds in each state. (I'm restricting myself to caches with a physical container - no virtuals, locationless, etc., although I may include a couple of extremely prolific examples for comparison purposes.) I've been doing much of the research by hand, but I thought that if anyone would know where my research efforts have failed it would be active local cachers in different communities.
So I'm here because I'm a little confused by what I've turned up for Arkansas. The best I've been able to do for a regular cache is CAA / I-30 Rest Area and Travel Bug Exchange (http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=6f109050-0466-4fa8-94c2-d02425a849ea) with 492 finds. I also found this - The Logging Cache Part Deux (http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=d82d6f11-cda3-4e7f-bd81-0bf045d905d4) with an astonishing 1625 finds. But it looks like that cache is collecting the logs for about 9 other caches. I may include it for novelty's sake, but it doesn't seem like it's the same kind of cache as most.
One way or another, does anyone know if I can do better?
Thanks very much,
