The first four in the series are all straightforward caches (once you've solved the puzzles), but this finale of the series is the first cache of over a thousand that I have done where I declined to do it immediately. I went back a few weeks afterwards though, and what a stunner this cache is!

Code Breaker V: CRYPTOLOGY

Well THAT was a surprise! This cache has a good variety of stages, and all together make for a good challenge to try to complete it in 24 hours. Go on... you know you want to try! Great fun!!!

Exon Quest

This really is a great cache. It's close to the road, with easy parking, a fabulous building, and an impressive hide. Just what the LQ county caches were supposed to be like.

LQ:WORCESTERSHIRE - Dunstall Castle

LQ:WORCESTERSHIRE - Dunstall Castle View

Fabulous night cache. I'm not going to say anything about it, other than that it is highly recommended by me. The unique stages and ingenuity mean that this one goes straight in to my top 10 list from 3600+ finds. Go get it!

Nights In Shining Armour

This cache has all the elements of a great cache. A complex solvable puzzle, great views, interesting history, a physical challenge, a good dose of excitement and a touch of nerdiness, hehe.

You WILL love this cache!

Race the clock (Bath & NE Somerset)

The First in Wales is a pleasant walk, a well hidden cache with spectacular views of the Brecon Beacons. When I visited there was a really heavy frost which made it even better.

The First in Wales

This was the first multi-cacher multi-stage cache that I did.  Took some doing, but very rewarding to complete it!

The Magnificent Journey.

This was chosen for the incredible geological feature near the cache. Read my log from 10 December 2003 for details and a photo. Ace!

Tunnel of Doom (NSW, Australia)

Tunnel of Doom

If I had a top one list, this would be in it. Your mission should you choose to accept it is to go deep underground in mud and water, on your belly with your back touching the ceiling in places. You will be underground for up to an hour for this cache alone. This is only to be attempted after finding the other 7 caches in the Underworld series in Devon and solving a very complex deciphering exercise as well. Top marks to WillDeBeast for setting this, in my opinion the most challenging cache in the UK.

UnderWorld 8 (Bonus)

Know any French? What about cryptic French? What about history? What about a sense of adventure? What about all of it rolled in to one mean cache! This was my 100th cache, a 5/5 and well worth the long return journey by car. A must do!
