Any "MUST DO" caches in NYC?

[Daxos]

I'm heading to NYC tomorrow for a week and was wondering if there are any caches that are not to be missed? Any difficulty and/or terrain is fine, I just want to find some really good ones.

 

Thanks in advance,

Michael

I am moving this thread from the Geocaching Topics forum to the Mid-Atlantic forum.

Any of the Gates puzzles "It Begins at the ---Gate." Anything by addisonbr,among others.

And, of course, our Bear on the Loose

Try filtering by favorite points.

Yeah, Addisonbr has that cache on the South End of Central Park that has thousands and thousands of finds. Didn't have it in my GPS when I was there though. Must be an excellent hiding spot, with cachers well concealed from the public. Do the sort by favorites point thing, like the Dolphin said. Especially now that they had to go and move your thread, and no one is going to see it any more.

I cached NYC and my advice is to retain your situational awareness. I found a lot itinerant/homeless folks in Central Park and they see you even if you don't see them. Also, since there are no public facilities for them, they also seem to find likely cache spots to relieve themselves. After a couple times I moved on to other city caches and had a great time.
