A few years ago, Groundspeak introduced the concept of Favorites.Inspired by some of the non-GSP geocaching websites, this was the first real way to show some appreciation for caches that were truly outstanding. The idea is that after you have found 10 caches, you are awarded a favorite point which you can give to another cache. Caches accumulate favorite points based on how many people actually favor your cache. Generally speaking, the ones with the higher favorite counts are usually ones that are “really nice” caches. Whether it be for the way they were hidden, the location it brought you to, or just some other aspect to the hide.
In NB, the top 5 rated caches by favorite points are:
1 – GC1965
2 – GC3057X
3 – GC11F89
4 – GC353V9
5 – GC3311J
Have you found any of these caches and do you think they deserve to be in the top 5? If not, what caches do you think are the best?
