Actually, he now has over 50,000 finds.

It boggles the mind.

That's some amazing caching. Now I know why gasoline prices are so high in California, he's sucking it all up!

Way back when, CCCooperAgency was the big cacher, having blown through 10,000 caches when most folks were amazed at a cacher with 1000-2000. She slowed down around 2007 when her father got sick. He died in 2008, and she took on a new calling. She dropped out of caching shortly afterwards, hitting just over 25,000 caches. Her profile is still up and active.

I am not worthy to even grace their presence. They are totally out of my league.

I have been watching him for quite sometime now. He was doing 6000 a year. LAST year he was doing a 1000 a month. His personal best is over 900 in a day. So he says.

It's not the size of my cache that matters, but the way it adds to your mystery.

Talk about amazing stories. Grizz made the reference to CCCooperAgency. Did you check her out. She was going great guns, hit 25,000 (if memory serves me correctly) and then stopped. It has been several years since she stopped, and she has only found one cache since. That is even more amazing to me!
I am an amazed cacher!
