Best New Caches Of 2003?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Hard to get consensus on this, but which do you think are the best new caches of 2003? I can think of several ways to rate them: scenic location, interesting hide, novel container, mental challenge, physical challenge, cache page design...

 

The floor is open for nominations. :D

For me, Camp Blood followed by Santa's Toy Box did it for me. The first cache contains coordinates to information on finding the second one, so you really end up with a 3-part multi, and 2 logged finds, spread out over a few miles in a nice forest area. Both are in very interesting locations, and were great hides. My hat is off to Johnny_Cache.

Rock Town by Jim Pate

It happens to be one of the oldest caches in GA and is a great place to visit.

Euclid's Column (GCGY0V) near Monterey, CA tops my list of favorites. Mental challenge to get actual coordinates. Beautiful view at cache location. Very creative container and surprise physical challenge to finish it up.

We really enjoyed 2 puzzle caches this year: Crypto Delicatessen (GCF0B2) and Scarabaeus (GCC70E) both of which are members only but were well worth the time and effort we had tp put into them. Also, PCIII, the pick of the litter (GCG5A3) was a great devious hide! I probably forgot one but these three are my favorites for the year so far.

That's alot of categories...

 

Is that one of those "everyone wins a prize" contests?? :D

My vote for Cache of the Year is the "Chamber of Secrets" located in the San Gabriel mountains northeast of Los Angeles. I went with a large group and we had a blast.

 

I'd challenge anyone to enter the 'chamber' without a flashlight. :D

;) I am sure there are plenty of caches across the country that can be listed as the best, some physically difficult, some mentally difficult, and some just a challenge to figure out. I am new but I vote for (Scarlet Letter Cache) a letterbox in upstate SC. Only two finders to date and I am one of them. :D Jeff24

We have some really great caches around the greater Central Valley Cachers and Livermore Tri-Valley. Many devoted cachers have created top notch puzzle caches and I love them all. For example Counterparts and Double Agent both are worthy of the best cache of the year.

 

However, because I know most cachers don't do complex puzzle caches, my nomination to this years best Geocache would have to be Wait Until Dark.

 

Thanks for posting this interesting thread. :D I'll be taking notes. ;)
