Thanks to some of my dear friends (you know who you are), I got infected with a virus called Geocaching back in 2011. Since then it has brought me to many places I wouldn’t have seen without it.
Statistics updated on 2020-02-21
I’ve found 1390 unique caches since my first cache find on 20 November 2011.

D1.0 and D1.5 are shaded as I try to follow a D2+ quality cache policy (few exceptions apply);
to get from ~2.21 to a difficulty average of ~2.30 it takes: 552 D2.5s, 159 D3.0s, 93 D3.5s, 66 D4.0s, 51 D4.5s or 42 D5.0s;
to get from ~2.00 to a terrain average of ~2.10 it takes: -1306 T2.0s, 323 T2.5s, 144 T3.0s, 93 T3.5s, 69 T4.0s, 54 T4.5s or 45 T5.0s;
