Everyone that has hidden more than one cache has one they feel is a cut above the rest.

 

I have hidden caches that are for the challenge, for the fun, for the history, or for the scenery.

My favorite is one in a peaceful quiet spot with a great view.GCZ7TD

 

So the question is, which of your hides is your personal favorite?

[+BlueDeuce]

Not at all. I'm only average when it comes to hiding. My best 'owned' cache is one I adopted.

I've got a lot of caches that I have hidden that I am proud of, and it is really hard to pick one of them...but I will go ahead and say this one.

I have a personal favorite among my caches in just about every catagory.

 

My most favorite cache for just a totally cool location that many finders gush about is:

 

A Claustrophobic's Nightmare/Just Say NO to Crack

 

 

My favorite cache for the logs it gets:

 

Quantum Leap (Fizzymagic's logs are among the best.)

 

 

My favorite hosted Event Cache: (Sheesh it was nearly a mega-event. Close to 400 people showed up. )

 

One Degree of Separation

 

That's approximately 300 regular to large caches containing 12,500+ micro caches. I think it may have been the largest micro proliferation in geocaching history.

I have a few that I really enjoyed placing. My wife and I had a blast placing this one a few weeks ago. Its barely 1/4 mile from the road but it was a pretty challenging bushwack and it took us close to an hour to go that 1/4 mile (actually our track was closer to a mile as we made our way around cliffs and dense stands of mt. laurel).

 

This one was one of my first and its still one of my favorites. A somewhat rugged hike in a beautiful area.

My favorite is Old Dunlap Ghosts - it is a genuine Ghost town now used as a pasture for cows.

 

A Close 2nd for the shear beauty is History Before Art Class

My favorite hide is Etch-o-Sketch

http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...4c-77e91e5cd89f

 

It's a night cache, roughly 3 miles through a swamp, mostly bushwhacking. As you follow the arrows, you create a track log in the shape of two giant numbers, like Nazca Lines, about 1/2 a mile tall. At the end, you get instructed on how to use those numbers to locate the final.

[+Sioneva]

My favorite hides are Chalogical #1 and Chalogical #2, mostly because the puzzle needed to find each was so much fun to make! And unique, or at least I hope.

 

But I like how my rock caches make people tear their hair out, and the scenic caches are just neat places to visit, and... Okay, okay, I'm done.

[+gof1]

Wow, what a great bunch of caches.

Makes me want to run up the credit cards to chase them all down.

Thanks everyone for posting them.

 

Now, what else ya got?

[+DocDiTTo]

Of all my 18 or so hides, there are 2 that stand out, both in my mind and in the logs...

 

Uh-OReviewer, I MissPlaced my cache!

 

and

 

High & Low

 

The first is a challenging hike (or bike) up a mountain for a minimum round trip of about 4 miles depending on whether you take the road up or a boundary trail straight up. Elevation change is about 1100 feet. It was hidden in honor of 2 Pennsylvania Volunteer cache reviewers, OReviewer and MissPlaced. I upped the stakes a bit by offering to buy them dinner if they scored the find, so far only OReviewer has collected.

 

The second cache is probably my personal favorite, because it's a very challenging hide for another reason -- part of it is hidden deep inside a cave. The terrain is very challenging, and the hides themselves are none too easy. It encourages teamwork to complete the find, and pushes folks to go farther physically and mentally than many caches do. The puzzle is a necessary evil to keep the unprepared from just trying this on a whim and biting off more than they can chew. Doesn't get many finds, but the logs are always enjoyable.

[+Team LaLonde]

We love to read the logs from this hide - Bicycle Race. It's seldom found but gets good comments: "an adventurous find", "Holy crap! A most worthy cache", "great camouflage job fooled our eyes ", "Now how do we get to it?". This is why we hide caches, right?

[bogleman]

I've got 2 personal favorites Ridge Runner and

[+CYBret]

I don't know about my best, but I like to think about my latest as "The Geequalizer." It gave a few different people an edge for FTF.

There's a bunch more great caches.

Thanks for sharing them.

 

Doc, that puzzle will keep me up tonight.

 

CB, I didn't ask for your best, I asked for your favorite.

That said, you have an interesting sense of humor.

I remember that from my childhood, it was the show my sister watched when it was her turn to controle our only (B&W) TV.

[+nutlady]

I would say that the most I elicit from my cache hides are a great big YAWN. However, I do have one that I am proud of . I wish I was smart enough to highlight it...maybe it will do that all by itself...

GCQ9FZ

Its not been found by many, though it is directly over a major highway through California. I spent literally days on this cache, even though its a dagnab MICRO. A Micro was ALL that it COULD be! What cracks ME up, is that after spending So much time matching paint color, the county has painted over the actual cache, twice!

[+Renegade Knight]

One of my first caches Joint Venture At Crater Rings was an experiment. This cache would not be approvable today. Still it's my personal favorite.

[+gof1]

Here you go Nutlady, GCQ9FZ

 

Thanks for sharing.

[+Night Stalker]

There are several of mine that I think are pretty good, but this one which is in the back country and pretty hard to find is probaby my best.Fall Creek's 2nd Falls

[+Wile E. Dragonfly]

I personally love all of my caches... But my favorite for uniqueness in the hide (at least the first stage) is http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...ec-82d58cbc598f

 

My favorite for overall... the why I put it there thing, is my first hide. http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...46-4bc287bce760

 

We don't tend to place easy caches, so we don't hide as many as other people do, and we put more energy into the ones we do hide. So really, I like them all...

[+emurock]

So the question is, which of your hides is your personal favorite?

My favorite is my first.

[+tands]

We have three that we're pretty proud of:

 

Ferocity

 

and

 

Cache Ewww Too

 

and last but not least

 

Scrambled

 

- T of TandS

[+Spencersb]

This is my favorite so far:

The Dark Tower VII

 

Of that set, I like #4, the 5/5, best.

 

I think this new one will be fun, too, if anyone can ever find it.

 

The Hobbit Note: This is a Members Only cache.

[+olbluesguy]

This one is reported to be my best best fun one...

Hit The Bricks

 

and this one is my most evil hide......Oh No O"BG

[+KKTH3]

Hard for me to come up with one cause we like all of our caches for different reasons. Instead I'll break it down to two favorites - one traditional cache and one puzzle cache. Passing Time became unintentionally better simply due to the presense of a local resident that most of the finders have reported in the logs. I've talked to one of the finders that took a picture with his phone - I must convince him to add the photo to his log!!!

 

For the puzzle cache, most cachers in this area don't care for them so they are rarely sought out, but I think this one is in one of the better locations in town - a photographer could have a field day at the final location. Anyway, if you ever plan a trip to Central Wyoming, do the puzzle for Comfortably Numbers in advance for the coordinates and make this a stop on your caching adventures.

[+Harry Dolphin]

We've got four or five that we are proud of. But our personal favorite is: Clueless: The Revenge of Andy Bear

[+gebu]

I had the most fun hiding GCY8WQ

I hid it in the company of two fellow cachers, the weather was perfect and one gets to do this rope traverse:

 

This one gets the most enthusiastic logs: GCJ6X4.

[+gof1]

Some of these caches make my longest hike look like a park & grab.

These are amazing.

 

Thanks, everyone, for posting them here.

 

OK, who's next?

Who has one they are particularly pleased with?

[+OHMIKY]

there are a few that I think are pretty nifty, but my hands-down favorite so far is OHMIKY's Scarabaeus Croceus - GCYPJX

 

A puzzle multi and the launching site for a TB with a related theme.

 

It isn't a great climb or a spelunking adventure, but...
