In fact the rating seems like it would have nothing to do with it. I can picture a cache that requires once hell of a jeep ride to the cache area, but then have the cache itself just off the road, but very well hidden., so it would be a perfect cache for someone in a wheelchair. They would just need a 4x4 just like anything else, and want to look around a bit for a well hidden cache. People should probably just mention if the location itself can be arrived at easily once the drive is over. Brian Cluff Team Snaptek
