And where are the smallest caches in The Netherlands

When we looked where the largest caches are in The Netherlands last week, I expected the cities to be the areas with the smallest caches. This week I've run the numbers and discovered something different. The area with on average the smallest caches is Afsluitdijk with less than 50 mililitres.

In second place with over 51 ml Vlieland. Lauwersoog comes in third with 52 ml. Fourth place is for Kornwerderzand with almost 53 ml. Then the caches become larger. For number five in De Cocksdorp they have become on average almost 100 ml.

So an area with small caches is not an urban area, but area's with few caches where they are small.

Where are the largest caches in The Netherlands?

Last week we discovered The Netherlands have the largest cache containers in the world. This week we look where we can find the largest caches in that country. The map below shows the largest caches in red, the smallest in blue and green in between. Just as in the maps before the more opaque the more caches in that area.

As expected we won't find the many large caches in rural areas. But to my surprise the large caches can be found close to rural areas. First place with more than four litres is Hoenderloo near Apeldoorn. A few weeks ago we saw the caches by Geo Chaos receive many favourites. This week we discover another way he creates great caches.

In Rijssen near Almelo caches also have a size of more than four litres. Here JanScheppink is one of the people that creates great caches. Hapert near Eindhoven is the last place with more than four litres. We see large caches by Puttervink here.

For the next ones we go to Friesland. The caches of NTM27 give Fjildwei near Sneek the fourth position withwith the three point eight litres. With almost three point seven litres the fifth place is for De Knipe near Heerenveen, here you can find the caches by De Bijtjes.

Where are the largest caches?

Last week I determined the size of the size groups that are available in geocaching. This week I use those values to calculate which country has on average the  biggest caches. As usual with these list topped with countries that have a few large caches. In this case the one large cache of US Minor Outlying Islands is enough to offset the three other smalls to give it the number one position with more than sixteen litres.

Again I make a table with the average size for countries with more than ten thousands caches:

Netherlands	2.222
Czechia	1.972
Australia	1.746
Switzerland	1.657
Belgium	1.505
Slovakia	1.476
Germany	1.454
Canada	1.260
United States	1.238
Norway	1.231
Austria	1.177
South Africa	1.168
Denmark	1.148
Sweden	1.136
Finland	1.108
New Zealand	1.095
Poland	1.048
Portugal	0.990
Spain	0.888
France	0.859
Ireland	0.780
United Kingdom	0.694
Italy	0.603
Japan	0.438

We can see that this weeks winner is The Netherlands with more than two point two liters. Number to with just under two liters is Czechia and third place is for Australia with one and three quarters of a litre.

In the bottom we see the United Kingdom with almost seven hundreds  millilitres. Italy with six hundreds millilitres and Japan in last place with an average cache size of less than half of a litre.
