What have you found to be the most difficult instrument approaches? I'm looking for a very difficult approach plate to help brush up on my instrument approach reading and knowledge of symbols, procedures, etc... plus I'd like to practice some difficult IAP's on Flight Sim to prepare for my next instrument stage check.

Please list them and if possible, explain why they are difficult.
 
The ASE approach of fame, the Baltimore-Martin State DME Arc approach are the two that come up right off the top of my mind...

DRO ILS 02 full procedure with published missed

I always thought it was a bit tougher than the rest, but when it was discussed on this forum I was made fun of, so apparently it's not...

That is a perfect example of a gotcha approach for filing an alternate. The MDA is higher than 2000 feet, so if the ceiling was forcast to be 2000 overcast but vis greater than 3 miles, one could get themselves into a pickle by not filing an alternate and going to this airport (if that is the "lowest" approach that airport has).
