Best Caches Near Chicago

[ATHF]

I know there are tons of caches around here, but most are either boring urban micros, or misc uninteresting in the woods caches.

 

I am looking for interesting/fun/unique caches

Anything on the GONIL web site? Maybe they have a "gottasee" list or "cache of the month" list somewhere. Lots depends in what floats your boat: walking in the woods (Cook County Forest Preserves, esp Palos and Busse), urban, a particular theme, puzzles, massive multis, etc. My preference is just to go to locations where there are "bunches" -- these are usually places folks enjoy and there is enough variety of types, sizers, types and terrain to keep things interesting. Often it is a place I may not have visited or known about. Even if the caches are dopey, I at least get a good walk in and get to know my area better.
