Hardest Traditional Cache

[+c4th]

I was wondering where and what is the most difficult and or exotic traditional cache.

 

Happy hunting,

That's purely subjective. There are a lot of hard ones. To an experienced climber, a 5 star cache on the side of a cliff may be quite easy. To a fit and experienced hiker, a cache that entails a rugged 10 mile hike is a piece of cake, while it would be a difficult trek for others.

 

One of the hardest ones I've seen was a cache hung from a bungee in the middle of the steel grate roadbed of a bridge. An easy walk to the cache. You could see it plainly, but retreiving

and replacing it was the hard part. A few people did get it and here is the story of how one teamdid.

Ah yes, that was one of our favorite caches.

 

Tough terrain can be quantified a little better then caches that need brain power, and well hidden cache require a little luck, well aligned birds for your GPS and a sharp eye.

 

But how about Something Like this? DisQuoi has a couple goodie in Virginia, see Cannon Fire or Les Anges Volantes

 

As for toughest virtual see The Scenic 'Overlook', most folks have to go back 2 or 3 times to get this one.

El Conquistador's Treasure by Viperwolf1 in Greenland and Hidden: 8/11/2002 has not been found yet. On a Glacier, sounds like it would take a expert/pro explorer/climber.

I think that the hardest ones are the caches that aren't there, i.e stolen

This one's near a lava lake in the crater of a volcano in Ethiopia.
