I agree. However, to Jim's point, when you tie wrap 1000 film cans on reflector poles every tenth of a mile, it doesn't serve anyone but number hounds.

I know an old lady that caches in a wheelchair. Her high quality caches are the ones she can reach from her chair, in parking lots, by guard rails. She could not care less about the cool cache just a bit down the trail in the woods because she cant get there.Not everyone things of quality the same way.

Some people might want a long hike, some might want difficult terrain, others a hard puzzle and some find just the caching experience and almost any cache that gets them outdoors to be quality.This was best evidenced onTC.com <http://TC.com>itself.
