Good answer!  I have COPD.  There are many "quality" caches I would love to
find, but my lungs don't have the capacity for the hike and hunt.  That's
why some of my hides might qualify as "quantity" because these are areas I
can reach and also maintain the caches I place.

yep, thats a real tough one.  I know an old lady that caches in a
wheelchair. Her high quality caches are the ones she can reach from her
chair, in parking lots, by guard rails. She could not care less about the
cool cache just a bit down the trail in the woods because she cant get
there. 

 

Not everyone things of quality the same way.

The problem lies with defining what constitutes a "quality" cache. Some
people might want a long hike, some might want difficult terrain, others a
hard puzzle and some find just the caching experience and almost any cache
that gets them outdoors to be quality.

 

This was best evidenced on TC.com itself. You'd be amazed at how similar the
vast majority of caches there were like ones on Groundspeak.

I just looked at their website and I wish I would have realized this was
here. I liked what I read.   I wish Groundspeak would do more to push
quality over quantity.
