+Sue Gremlin Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I know this has been done before, but it doesn't hurt to get updates. Do you have a favorite cache of all time? I'd love to see your logs. There are some really amazing stories out there, I will never get sick of reading about them. It's what's so cool about this whole geocaching thing. My favorite is the Manunka Chunk Tunnels in Warren County, NJ. I posted about ninety photos in my log. How bout you? Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I would be hard pressed to single out one, but I have about 20 in my top ten. BTW, Manunka Chunk Tunnels has been on my to do list since it was placed. Maybe soon. Quote Link to comment
+joefrog Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 My favorite was more for the company I kept for it than the cache itself. It was a very good day! Quote Link to comment
magellan315 Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Pioneer Saloon, its in a bar that has been in operation since 1913. Complete with bullet holes in the wall, a ghost, and the current owner is a part of the local history. Located 25 miles outside of Las Vegas as you head towards the California border this is a great place to hang out after a day of caching. Quote Link to comment

+TeamAO Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Hmm...I took a ammo can to McDonald's once. Umm....let's go with Yellowcreek MST by SGLTreker73. That's my vote. Quote Link to comment
+Silny Jako Bek Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 This is one of my all time favorites. View Carre' Located in New Orleans it has everything you always wanted in an urban cache: surprise , uniqueness and a most amazing view . Hopefully, people will be able to experience it again soon.

+nikcap Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 All time favorite has to be: Bill & Gary's Excellent Adventure II (GCG342) in Michigan. Limiting it to caches that are still active. Choreographed Chaos (GCNME9) by Dirty_Bird & BigNastyBrain in the New Jersey Pine Barrens. Quote Link to comment
+Moose Mob Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 You had me going for a minute there. I was going to respond to "Favorite Cache to Date?" with the alternate question "Favorite Date to Cache [with]". But that's a different thread. Quote Link to comment
+Harry Dolphin Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 My favorite cache is still My Monkey. Sadly, it has been archived. It was mentally and physically challenging. It was my favorite! Caches still available? MI6.6 The Promethian Legend was an excellent finale to an excellent series! Unfortunately, the will be archived this weekend. Here's a nasty little cache, set out four years ago, by a cacher who has not been active in two and a half years. It's a classic, and still in good contidtion. One of the 'must do's' in New Jersey. You ain't nobody until you've found this one!Alluvial Material Quote Link to comment
+Miragee Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 (edited) Probably my favorite multi-cache is one I just completed this week. Sticks and Stones The individual waypoints were very well-cammoed and the trail it followed was interesting, but not too challenging. Picking a favorite from the Traditional caches I have found is difficult, but I think it has to be one of those placed by the Sandy Creek Cowboys. Those guys come up with the most entertaining and challenging caches around. The logs are hilarious to read because of what those guys put Geocachers through, including asking Geocachers to write in "Cowboy-speak." And, that gives me an idea . . . I think I need to put all of their caches on my watchlist . . . Edited September 29, 2005 by Miragee Quote Link to comment

+AuntieWeasel Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 The Long Man of Wilmington. We'd been there before, and the cache is fairly unremarkable (except that it's by excellent cachers who make sure their hides are in wonderful locations, tidy and well-stocked), but we hit it at the end of a long and happy caching day. It was just at dusk, and a cloud suddenly rolled over the hill behind us, swallowing the Long Man. Have you ever been inside a cloud, where it descends not as a fine vague mist, but as a firm rolling boundary, and you feel like you've been taken up into the sky? Like that. Magic. We took a thousand pictures, and none of them came close to capturing it. So here's the daytime picture from the cache listing: Quote Link to comment
+Team Perks Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 And then go do its Bizarro World counterpart, Torch Tuber! I love it!!! One of the best spoofs on a cache I've seen to date. Quote Link to comment
4wheelin_fool Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 The Devil's Courthouse in Western North Carolina is the best area for good views and rappelling that I've found. Its also the first cache that I logged online as a find. http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...&log=y&decrypt= Quote Link to comment
+Yamahammer Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 My fav to date I haven't even found yet. It is a multi with a mystery twist. It takes a math teacher, an engineer, a book on sign langauge, knowledge of metals and a patient soul. Got stage one done, working on stage 2. Worked on it yesterday for 4.5 hours. - GCQMVC, A Brain Storm. Quote Link to comment

+Husker Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 My favorite cache is the next one... Old Blind Duck was a great time for us. It's a canoe cache. The logicists of the trip were a challenge. We FTF'ed. A few weeks after that, the cache had an event that was very close to the cache. Many people got to find it while only spend a few minutes on the water. We made a day of it and really had a great time. Quote Link to comment
beegirl13 Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Though I don't have many finds, I have a couple favorites already. My favorite cache is Multiplicity because it led to my first hide. I had never heard of a cache like this before and thought it was pretty cool. My favorite cache experience was on my second find ever. I was hunting Royalton Ravine with my two favorite people in the whole world, and we got "lost" (more like off track) like we always do. Then, of course, a sudden rain/thunder storm came along as SV and I were climbing up a steep drainage ditch and Joe was nowhere to be found. He thought he had found a better way, so we yelled back and forth and finally found him across a creek. There was no bridge nearby, so we (being soaked by then anyway) walked across the creek and found the cache on the other side. Keep in mind that this was not in the wilderness but in a town park fairly close to civilization. Come to think of it, my favorite memories with these two people always seem to involve sudden rainstorms...*sigh* Now I miss them both- we all live in different states now. Quote Link to comment
+Airmapper Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 My first cache is still my favorite, 30 caches later. It's Honker Hill, (sorry no link) But it was a 3/3 terrain /difficulty and it was great. I'll admit the urban micros disappointed me a little after that, but I like cache that take you to the woods and make you search for them. Quote Link to comment
+aka Monkey Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 I'm working on creating some new caches, and was curious what great things other people had done. Post your that favorite caches that you've found (not hidden), and explain why they're your favorite. I'm hoping for inspiration! Quote Link to comment

+Two Geeks and a GPS Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Bill & Gary's Excellent Adventure IV This is the doozie around here. The logs are always a good read. Some people who've already found it, show up just to laugh at the next seekers! Check out are groups logs.....very good stuff. Quote Link to comment
+Two Geeks and a GPS Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 (edited) Metroparks Cache Series The local park system also does a good job promoting geocaching. A 13 park series with 13 individual caches. People look forward to these all year long! Edited October 5, 2005 by Two Geeks and a GPS Quote Link to comment
+TeamAO Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Yellowcreek MST by SGLTreker73. My log and the other logs of the cache will indicate the "falling down swinging bridge" and then having the climb "the hill that eats small children". Awesome cache. Quote Link to comment

+Lizzy Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 My Favorite to date is Sledgehammer in Tennessee. My local favorite is Mountain Loop Mine in Washington. Of course, I don't have a whole lot of finds under my belt yet... Quote Link to comment
+Clothahump Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 To date, the cleverest one I've found is Cache 623.77. And of course, there will always be a warm spot in my heart for the first geocache I ever found, Escape From Reality. I still go back to it every once in a while and drop in a Travel Bug or something. Quote Link to comment
+Miragee Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 It is hard to pick out a favorite, but the cache that is going to be the most memorable for a long time is probably the one I found yesterday: Snail Rock It took us 45 minutes to get through the exceedingly-thick brush to the cache. Only two other people had logged the cache in almost two years. The amazing thing about the cache is who was with the team who placed it. From the cache page: What's really unique about this cache is that one of our team members was quadriplegic and dependent on a ventilator. Using a custom-built single-wheeled offroad wheelchair and a "JackPack," . . . we were able to travel over just about any type of terrain encountered along the PCT. There is a picture of "Todd's Team" on the lid of the cache container: Quote Link to comment
+frivlas Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 By far, our favorite cache to date is ANX: The Angle of Eternity This 6 stage multi/puzzle is the most creative and fun cache we have done so far. Quote Link to comment
