the rangers of the north had aragorn as there leader so there isnt much competition allthough the rangers of the south probably had more work to do.

The rangers of Ithilien got credit for what they were doing, whereas the rangers of the north were the unsung heroes, very few people knew who they really were or what they did to protect the free people of ME, so they were often scorned, which to my mind made their job a lot harder.

That's a very difficult question. Both groups of rangers have an equally important job and both have excellent leaders. i would have to say the rangers of the North because I believe their leaders to be better.

I believe the rangers of the North would have had the more difficult job. They might have had fewer troubles, or been in less danger, but they were distrusted by most people.
