Best Overall Caches
What makes a good cache? It's a
combination of location, hiding technique, surprise, and a feeling
that the search was worthwhile. Good caches are the ones you
tell your friends about. These caches are the best I have
found.
Massachusetts
GCB9F - Cat Rock 3D - Weston, MA
Two good hiding places, a unique cache
container, and an innovative 3D camera makes for a rewarding
search.
GC31DE - The Depot - Needham, MA
This is a good one to visit with
kids. An easy hike to a magical location. The
friendly cache owner is
often around.
GC304 - Mesozoic One (and others
nearby) - Milton, MA
If you like hills, spend the day
finding the three caches
located in the Blue Hills south of Boston. Pick up a trail map
at the Nature Center. And check out the
Blue Hill Observatory at the peak. The nearby Kid Kit cache
(GC5C8E) is a short, flat, easy hike. For hilltop views north
of Boston, check out Breakheart Redux (GC1995) and Boston Hill
(GC3C7).
GC5138 -Historic Saxonville -
Framingham, MA
This cache is different; a combination
of urban and rural. First explore a small mill village,
gathering clues that provide the coordinates of the cache.
Then hike the nature trail to find it.
GC111A - How Many Roads - Kingston,
MA
A quick drive-by cache on the South
Shore guaranteed to make
you smile.
Rhode Island
GC375D - War Tour - Jamestown,
RI
Avoid the Newport crowds and visit Jamestown just across the bay. The War Tour takes you to the
best coastal cliff-side viewpoints. Stop at the
tricky Suspense cache (GC2769) along the way.
GC5DB2 - Two If By Sea - Point
Judith, RI
Coastal Rhode Island at its best.
There's more to Point Judith than the Block Island ferry. Plan
on spending the afternoon, searching for its three caches.
GC60F7 - Tarbox Pond - West
Greenwich, RI
Rhode Island's pine forests are a
pleasure to hike. The trails feel padded, the air scented, the woods
not too dense. This cache and nearby Toaster Head (GC6507) are
two good examples.
GC2342 - Magnificent Mile Cache -
Rockville, RI
There is a surprisingly large amount
of undeveloped land and state forest in the western part of the
state. This is one cache that lives up to its name.
GC588C - Weetamoo Woods - Tiverton,
RI
The southeast corner of Rhode Island
is farm country. This cache takes you past the remains of an
early saw mill. Afterwards, discover the arts, antiques and
ice cream in nearby Tiverton Four Corners. Complete your day
with a tour of the Sakonnet Vineyards
