I am now very much a quality not quantity cacher. Both myself and Omis49 would rather walk 10 miles for 1 fab cache rather that walking around a series of grotty micros.
Even on the Geolympix I have chosen my route going on the favourite points rather than just grab the closest of each of the icons.
We feel the same way
Actually, we went to the Geolympix Mega Event and decided to do a spot of caching around Oxford city. We had not properly done our homework beforehand to pick out a route. We only did two in the end so we decided to go for "View from Coombe Hill" instead. How glad we did!
