Caching Milestones and More

My first cache was without a geocaching account and without a GPS on July 29, 2010 with my friend Jon (ccccwu17), we went on a very long bike ride down the Chehalis Western. The cache was called Maple Lane (GC1JCCN).

Started officially caching on July 30, 2010.  I registered with a caching name that morning at work.

My first cache by myself was 8/2/2010 without a GPS.

I found my first 50 geocaches without a GPS.

I bought my first GPS for my 27th birthday.  It was a bright yellow Garmin Rhino 110.

I got my first 100 caches on December 31, 2010 up in Port Angeles, Wash.

My first event was Hey Sailor (Take Two) ( GC2MRC8 ) in Everett, Wash.  There was a freak snow storm on the way home.

My first cache machine was in Wenatchee (GC2NVH2).

My first hide was Triangle (GC2EYYM) on September 10, 2010.

I hit my 1000th cache milestone July 3, 2011.  I got 1000 before a year into geocaching.

I hit number 2000 on January 10, 2012 at GC3AFPC It's A Trap!

My 3000the milestone came on a visit to Port Angeles on May 26, 2012 at Super Series-Aquaman (GC26FW6).
The 4000th milestone was at Campsite Cache (GC18KK5) down in Vancouver on the Burnt Bridge Trail on 9/16/12.

Number 5000 and 6000 came during the epic trip down to Nevada to experience the ET Highway, this was April 1-4th.  We got all 2000 ET caches and then some.  We got our first California and Arizona caches as well on the trip.

When I got home from the trip, we went up to Kent for a meet and greet on 5.18.13 and I got my 7,000th cache at a really cool puzzle cache (GC200CM).
