Favorite Points
Awarding favorite points to a cache is a great way to say "Thank You" to the Cache Owner (CO) for placing a great cache. Nana & I try to give out favorite points each and every day we find a cache.
One of the things we look for when planning a geocaching trip is to look for any and all geocaches with more than 25 favorite points. We figure if cachers took the time to award that many favorite points to a cache, then it is one we definitely want to find also. If you are a premium member, you earn one favorite point for each ten caches you find.
One of the things I have been working on here lately is updating our lists of the Top 10 Favorite Caches in each of the cities and counties that both make up and surround the Hampton Roads area. Note: They can be accessed from the 14th Annual GCHR Picnic Information Page link on the right hand side of this page.
If you are traveling to any area, a quick way to find the best caches in any city is to filter for caches with more than 10 favorite points (or pick any #).
