+varnapopcorn Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Everyone has found the 'base of tree' cache, but sometimes you get the odd unique cache. Today we have completed the series 'Interesting Places' and they have all been good- from climbing a tree to going in a stream up to knee height. What have been your favourite/s? Quote
+The Blorenges Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 One of our "best" finds was this weekend "Views over Redruth" Won't say too much to give away details but it involved an uphill battle with ferns and the knees of my jeans were filthy afterwards! MrsB Quote
+drdick&vick Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 We did that one back in 2008 and have to agree it is a great cache. The only shame is that the Cornish 2008 geocoin that was originally attched to the log book, it was to stay in the box and just be discovered, got lifted by one light fingered cacher. Real shame as it was nice coin to see. Quote
+Betelgeuse Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 North Gaulton Castle - I'm slightly prejudiced on this one as this is my favourite bit of Orkney coastline and one I've walked many times Quote
+shantz_uk_&_cleverclogs Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Just completed the TAVY TREASURE TRAIL A great cache with loads of varying stages. Quote
+MazdaRoy Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 One of my favs is GCEEE4 the walk and the views are stunning. Quote
+thehalibutkid Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 For me it's a toss up between Reptillian Railway and 35mm film canister in the woods. that said Laser Quest is also pretty special. And whilst i'm at it i-spy (the hangman) was a pretty fun experience. Quote
+Legochugglers Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 My favourite so far is GCM80G ALL TOOLED UP which is an excellent fun challenge in Croft, Leicestershire. Bearing in mind its sister cache GC17GRC 'RAF Reconnaisance Croft' is also excellent the village of Croft is well worth a Geo visit. Quote
+Croesgadwr Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 (edited) A new cache, only hit the streets on 5th Sept (and one that I'm sure will turn out to be a 'hit'), is GC33JRZ. Its one of the 'SEEKING SPOOKS' series, and so far its only had two finders... and has two fav points to its credit. Its just a bit different to the normal range of caches. Well worth a visit, when next in North East Wales. Edited September 7, 2011 by Croesgadwr Quote
+gazooks Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Any of the caches by The Bassetts near Southwold are worth having a go at. Major works of engineering and cunning. Quote
+mcwomble Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 I second Gazooks comment and whilst you're in the area, consider GC2PDVP Pirates of the Sole Bay. A little homework beforehand and then a 3 stage multi - a proper treasure hunt and great for kids of all ages and sizes. Quote
+cats-eyes Posted September 11, 2011 Posted September 11, 2011 The best caches we have done are the Alphabet Soup series by Smart451 based nr Matlock in Derbyshire. Very unique caches Quote
+abiherts Posted September 11, 2011 Posted September 11, 2011 One of my personal favourites is a cache in Hertfordshire hidden in a pretty little known grotto. The cache has a Where's Wally figure inside it and requires pictures to be taken of yourself and Wally. Where's Wally? Quote
+lola1964 Posted September 11, 2011 Posted September 11, 2011 Hi cats-eyes, where can I find details of thr alphabet soup series. We are very new to this and we are on our 2nd outing of geocaching. Matlock will be a lovely next trip out. many thanks in advance Lola1964 Quote

+lola1964 Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 here's the link to alphabet soup A http://coord.info/GC2M97J Excellent, many thanks. A wonderful new family hobby to get us out and about Stringer family Quote
+*mouse* Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 North Gaulton Castle - I'm slightly prejudiced on this one as this is my favourite bit of Orkney coastline and one I've walked many times I'll second that one. Definitely in my top 10 caches as it's such a stunning location. Other favourites are: Off-Piste and in the Dark Finn and Rosie's Hidden Valley Flotsam & Jetsam Extreme Treasure Island Quote
+Lord_Blackadder Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 So far, my favourite has to be MAABOF's Dream Quote
+The Blorenges Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 So far, my favourite has to be MAABOF's Dream From the logs, that does look like really good fun. Somebody's put a lot of effort into creating it. MrsB Quote
+Yorkie30 Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 Pips patch and a naughty Monkey GCZ832 A great walk and good cache with loads of treasure at the end. We really enjoyed it and a must if visiting the Lymington area. Quote
+Lord_Blackadder Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 So far, my favourite has to be MAABOF's Dream From the logs, that does look like really good fun. Somebody's put a lot of effort into creating it. MrsB Yes indeed. The only reason it isn't more popular already is because there haven't been enough people to try it to give it favourite points yet.

+Simply Paul Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 I have to add The Dragon's Lair by ZweiOrmers on Herm for being an unexpected treasure, and their similar Le Tchien Bodu on Guernsey - both outstanding caches. Gone but not forgotten, Vertigo by Cryptik Souls Crew was a classic of its type. I've been very lucky, finding amazing caches from sparafucile's The Little Cemetery Safari to... well, the list is too long! Quote
+Lord_Blackadder Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 Please add more to the list... I've really enjoyed looking at some of the different ideas. Quote
+Ranger Roo Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 Here are a few of my favourites WW2 Series - A Bridge too Far - Pole Cottage - GCJ5E7 in Shropshire - fun for bridge building! High Tea - GC13RAF in Brecon Beacons - fun for a great multi in the hills Along Long Mynd - GCKJWK in Shropshire - fun for the twist at the end and to take you to bits of the hill you wouldn't otherwise go to Cut Down Cache - GCHBD1 in Birmingham - fun for a 5/5 that most people can manage, and also a very different place to visit from the usual! Curious Curios 1 - GC2QNGB in Bristol - fun for a great (or infuriating) puzzle Umbrella Tree - GC1WYAA in Birmingham - fun for the great camoflage Quote
+dartymoor Posted October 15, 2011 Posted October 15, 2011 If you're ever in south devon and have some time free, there's two fantastic trails with really cleverly hidden caches that form a nice two or three hour walk (although one section can be done in half an hour if you're prompt) They're the templer way series. Without giving it away, the containers, locations and hideys for some of these are the best I've seen. Two had me hooting with laughter, three had me doffing my hat in respect! Templer Way (4 set) Templer Way (Part 2) 11 set Quote
