Nothing surpises me any more with caches that are placed and published.
Just found one a few weeks ago that was, quite literally, on the ground at the edge of a sidewalk, in someone’s front yard. I do not believe the cache owner is the homeowner. The sidewalk terminated at the corner and the homeowner put a bench there on the lawn. The cache is a duct taped pill bottle laying in the grass at the foot of the bench. I was shocked, just shocked, to see that it has gone missing already.
On the Left Side of the Road...Honestly, I’d rather have a “TFTC” than one of my favorite logs, “Easy cache for our team to find.” Got a team in the area that puts that on EVERY cache (and never logs their DNFs) and has plazed a grand total of zero caches of their own. Doesn’t matter how hard the cache is or what went into its design or creation, it’s just “easy.” Used to really get me annoyed, now I just click the “delete” button fast.

I have a friend who is a Tae Kwon Do black belt and is wheelchair bound. No use of his legs at all. But, he uses his arms to pull himself in and out of his chair, to the ground, to do throws and falls, etc. In his case, a ground-based LPC would be retrievable. Or, for that matter, something that required a bit of climbing…
Just like a “regular” cache, the rating is no guarantee that you will have the ability needed when you get to the cache site to actually retrieve the container.

Allow me to preempt the usual responses.
“No one forces you to put caches out. Writing good logs, or logs beyond a single character, is not required. You should simply be happy that people took the time to find your cache instead of sitting home watching NASCAR. Not everyone is a great writer. DON’T TELL ME HOW TO PLAY THE GAME!”

On the Left Side of the Road...I’m trying to figure out why you would want to log a cache you haven’t found. The main reason I log finds is so found caches don’t show in my PQs. Am I missing something? Is there a cache prize out there for high find counts that I’m missing???
On the Left Side of the Road...Peninsula park has it all. Swimming, hiking, miles and miles of bike trails. Close enough to town if you need a diversion for the day–take a bike ride and get ice cream. Protected inlet for canoeing/kayaking, along with watercraft rental if you don’t own them. Paddle out to Horseshoe Island and find the cache (and a letterbox 😉 ). Catch a play in the outdoor theatre at night right in the park, or take a short drive to the Skyway drive-in. Can’t go wrong.
