      I have been wondering which are the best of the virtual caches?

      The cache that really sticks out in my mind is GC87F1 A Banner Day by rpaske.

      Which are your favorites?

      My favorite virtual is the Wisconsin F-5 virtural.

      As a storm spotter for a number of years, I’ve been facinated this rare and deadly F-5 tornado. One of the few F-5’s to hit the state. The last one was the Oakfield F-5, July 18, 1996.

      It was amazing to visit this historic location and think about the terror the residents must have endured.

        We have visited a fair number of Virtuals and have to admit there are a lot of very good ones out there.

        Kit’n’kaboodles’ Hammerin’ Hank, Piggsville, or Old Testament Name
        Yawningdog’s Ephraim Wetlands
        Thraxman’s Moscow
        Socko’s Chapel or Witches House
        bjbest’s Lime kiln
        Miata’s Red Hunter
        Geotripper’s Crossing or Skavlem House

        are all contenders, and there are others. It is difficult to pick a favorite.

        I think it’s too bad that geocaching.com guidelines make it very hard to get a new virtual geocaches approved. As the admin approver for Iowa, I have to abide by their guidelines when reviewing new virtuals, but I wish the rules allowed for placing virtuals while on vacation if there are no other traditional or virtuals around.

        Anyway, I checked our list to remind myself of some of the very nice virtuals we’ve done. My favorites all involve hikes (of course):

        In Wisconsin,Castle View by GrouseTales

        and Water’s Edge by Team Cachebarr

        In Iowa, Holly Shrine by Danny Bishop

        In Colorado, Deer Mountain by Myotis

        In Italy,
        Pompeii by Ron Streeter

        Moscow, We Have a Problem is one of my favorites. I think it’s a good example of what potential new virtuals should aspire to be.

        Let me first state that I really like good virtuals. I am afraid that lame ones ruined what should be allowed in geocaching.

        My Favorites in order of preference:

        1- Llama’s Lament – my 500th cache had special meaning and was a great virtual in North Carolina.

        2- Donner, Party of Five – a California cache which is located in a forest primival setting. Very cool.

        3- Bonito Vista Al Mar – Somehow whenever I think of a virtual, I think of this T&B cache.

        4- Wet Feets Cache – A Vermont Cache that is the only floating car bridge I have ever seen.

        5- World Wide Quarters – very geocaching oriented.
