Hides, meaning Caches Owned, not animal skins! OK, OK, I know I used that joke on #100 and #200, and it's not funny anymore (Not that it really was in the first place).
A glance at my Public Profile shows that I currently own 299 Geocaches. I have 263 Traditional Geocaches, 19 Mystery Caches, eight Event Caches, three Cache In Trash Out Event Caches, two Multi-caches, two Letterbox Hybrids, one Community Celebration Event Cache and one Lab Cache. Of these caches, 293 have been placed by myself, and the other six are caches that I adopted from other cachers.
I placed my first Letterbox Hybrid for hide #100, and I have decided to place another one for every 100 hides from now on.
When trading for the enclosed items, please DO NOT trade for the ink pad or the stamp!
I parked my car on the shoulder of the paved road, and my wife and I hiked in from there. It is 2.09 miles from where I parked, to the hide location, in a straight line. Depending on the type of vehicle you own, your mileage will vary.
