I joined 4 months after Strider (3258) and was number 11,234. It would be
interesting to see a chart on how fast it has grown.
Things were much different in the early days. Hardly anyone knew what it
was. GPS were not as good - no paperless caching. No way to download the
caches-had to enter each one by hand. There were not lots of caches. I
remember thinking it would be impossible to find 500 caches. You rarely met
other cachers. I think it was my 54th hide that put me with more cache
hides than anyone in the world.
My first one was GCBA8. My dad showed me a newspaper article and I was
addicted.
