    Default Northernmost Cache

    Someone was asking about the northernmost cache in the world in national chat a few hours ago, and after some searching, we think we have found it.

    As North As It Gets! (GC5803) by Iceshelf 2002 Research Team (3.5/5)

    This cache is 519.663 mi from the North Pole. Amazing this was placed in 2002 and has had 13 finders! Anyone up for a ride?

    Be sure to look at the cache pictures!
    DNFTT! DNFTT! DNFTT!

    Wow! Latitude N82!

    Furthest north I've been is N58 - almost tropical compared with this cache!

    See if you can find out. There are 18 caches in Antartica... Hint: It's at S 90° 00.000 W 180° 00.000. That was easy, but it's a virt. Now, what is the southernmost physical cache?
