Meme997 Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 I'm thinking about some ideas for some really hard and CRAZY caches. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment
+ZeroHecksGiven Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 What you consider crazy and what I consider might be completely different things. Why don't you tell use what you have in mind and we can go from there. I know there is a site dedicated to "extreme" caches, which are all 5/5's and require swimming, use of climbing equipment, etc. I don't have the link off hand, but you get the idea...

+Sol seaker Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 You might want to try doing a lot of 5 rated caches This will give you an idea of what is out there so you don't repeat it, but it also may stimulate some ideas. 5's are fun for many, but my simple 1 cache is drawing all sorts of people who have found it as a first cache. In a town full of "evil" caches, it is good to hear the excitement when someone can actually find one. I know my cache has brought many people happiness and started them in a new sport (hobby/ obsession). Make sure it is a fun cache that adds fun to the game, rather than just a mean cache that just adds frustration to the world. There is already enough of that in the world already.

DannyCaffeine Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Give me something to CLIMB! I love scailing ridges and hills lol Quote Link to comment
+KarateNeko2 Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Well, if you want funny ones, then I suggest you cutting out the centers of fake fruits and hanging them on trees as caches. Or maybe a hollow toy that looks like a baby tree. Those are really cool. Quote Link to comment
+CACHE KRAWLER Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 I would first suggest taking your time and finding more caches as I see that you have not hit triple digits yet. Just pull back on the reigns and be patient. Once you have more expierence your ideas will be alot more achievable. Best of luck! Quote Link to comment

Will most likely make an attempt later this summer. Quote Link to comment
+StephenTravels Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 (edited) A friend and I recently found the "Waiting for Ironman" (GCRM0Y) cache out there in Grays Harbor county. Finding the cache isn't really too hard, but I gotta say getting there is pretty crazy. You can read my log entry here. I think we approached the cache a little differently than what most people do, coming over from the side that requires you to walk over the catwalks to get to the cache. Just getting to the catwalks requires a 30-40 climb on the bridges support beams. Without ropes and the fact that the metal was slippery from rain, this probably put me out of my comfort zone more than any other cache I've found yet. I heard there are other caches like this in the area, but we haven't done them yet. Another cache that comes to mind is at Liberty Bell Mountain along SR-20. It appears the FTF spot is still up for grabs, even though it was published in 2008. Hope you find what you're looking for! Edited March 17, 2010 by tsunami_KNUW Quote Link to comment
+MtnMutt-ProDuckShins Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Crazy? What about, Run for the Border - GCYWDW ? Quote Link to comment

Yes, hike down the Boulder River Trail to the fording Head northeast until you find Snickers Creek, follow that to the falls Bias to the right and embrace the mountain Keep going up until it turns into down again, then Follow the ridgetop east Of course, that's just one of the ways to get there.

+MaliBooBoo Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 How about Crazy Monkey Tripod That's the one I was thinking about! It's even got crazy in the cache name. And it is crazy. Quote Link to comment
fishiam Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 I'm thinking about some ideas for some really hard and CRAZY caches. Any ideas? "hard and crazy" ... maybe not but this cache is a real stinker of a challenge which you might have to visit to appreciate. Quote Link to comment
+TotemLake Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Let me know if you plan to go. I keep looking at it. And I keep remembering my grounding directly after the last time. This one is best handled if an overnight is setup the day before so you can hit the challenge at daybreak. Quote Link to comment
+Sytar Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 How many caches are out there that are a 1/5 (5 being the Terrain), where it is a PAIN to get to, but is almost sitting in the open when you get there? Quote Link to comment
