Cool! I was beginning to get worried during the week, when people generally do less caching then on the weekends. I was going to look for at least 6 today. I may still look for two BIT's, but I will take this opportunity to cacth up on some yardwork, instead. :mrgreen:

By the way, good thing you guys didn't need me. Only found 1 BIT, the other one was missing.

We are currently at Active Caches: 1052 | Total Finds: 2037.

OBXgeek asked via Twitter where we were last year, at this time.

So far, I've not found the answer, but I do see we hit 1000 finds on September 13, 2011. So, that tool almost 13 months and the next 1000 took about 11 months.

Also found that as of 19 January 2011 we were at 500 hides & 500 finds.

From that, It seems that our active hides grown has actually slowed. Took us 5 months to get to 500, but another 19 months to get to 1000. Must mean we've has more caches archived than I thought. We seem to be getting a lot of new caches, recently, so this surprised me.

The OC Team Stats page, shows "Caches Accepted" going back to Jan. 2011. Our five best months since then have been...

Apr 2012 - 92
Aug 2012 - 91*
Mar 2012 - 70
Aug 2011 - 65
Feb 2012 - 63

* Of course, this will certainly end up being our best, since we have 13 days to go.
