Default Ultimate soaring challenges or adventures

I am looking to compile a list of 'The Ultimate Soaring Adventures'.
I'd
appreciate any input from the forum on what they see as the pinnacle
of
soaring whether it is a 1000km task, flying New Zealands wave or some
other goal that may be beyond the day-to-day pilots reach.

I'll put up a list on a website once I get some input.


I would like to propose that a 15meter standard class 500km declared
triangle in Indiana might qualify as a borderline ultimate adventure.
I don't think it has been done.
