  I have not seen may RGS type caches in my travels. They have been more like 
around Sioux Falls SD area last week. I did two caches, both were two stars, 
both were reg size amo boxes, one was sitting in the fork of a tree (could see 
it from 100 ft away) and the other was sitting next to a tree (Could see this 
one from over 50 ft away). I may not be picking very hard ones when I travel 
but, it looks like the STL area has much harder caches based on the star 
rating. If I was travling here with a small amount of time, I would not select 
multi, or micro for the most part. I guess for the most part I try to hit 1-3 
star D, 1-3 T regular caches less than 1/2 mile hike.
   
  For the List - Lunch/business man caches would help me when I travel. These 
would be find in under 20 min and say somewhat clean. Last week I hit one cache 
on the way to the airport. Mud is now in season. I left mud and dirt in and on 
the x-ray machine, not very popular with security folks. Then continued to drop 
chunks of dirt all over the airport, airplane with even some dirt left for 
O'Hare. So much for staying clean.

I like to do unusual urban caches when traveling in another city. We
like to see other "RGS" caches in other cities.
Also for people traveling, I know that when we travel with the camper,
it would be nice to have a list of camper friendly caches, meaning, nice
big parking lots or places to turn around.

We also are very "touristy" and so we also like to go out of the way to
see things like the biggest ball of yarn, or ones like Big Brutus (cache
in Kansas).=20

I am thinking of some lists. Think of this from a visitors viewpoint. If
you were going to a town and were looking for caches, what sort of "best
of " lists would you look at.

Best Multi hour caches?
Good easy caches for kids?
Caches downtown I can walk too?
Caches I can do by taxi, in the dark on a rainy day? Or lists of caches
by what part of town, Good caches North...
Caches to do in Forest park and the Zoo?

What would be a handy list for you?
