    Thanks for the puzzle Pat.

    Did it on my phone. 80 pieces in an inch and 1/8,by an inch and 5/8, what a fun and frustrating excersize.

    Bonanza now has a bug hotel. None for people but one for TBs. Got the new cemetery cache and see there is space for another one but no easy place to hide one. Liked the placement of the one there though. Guess there was a virtual there back in ’02 that didn’t last too long

    Ok, is there a way to search for archived caches? I can run a PQ for disabled ones, but that isn’t what I’m looking for…

    One way of looking for archived caches is to look at a caching history of a long time local cacher. Look back on his earlier finds and you might find what you are looking for.

    I’m looking for a map/listing of local archived caches 🙂 I’m looking for something that will save time.

    The search function on the website has never made me happy. The “advanced search” is less powerful than the basic search, except you can filter out your finds/hides.

    Pocket queries are fine, but there isn’t an option to look for archived hides. Disabled comes up, but that’s different than archived.

      Unless you know the gc number, I don’t think there is a way unless you do the old cacher thing. Even then, you might have to have some idea of the name.

      Ugh

        Here’s an old …gc3f17 but no idea where it was located.

        #2030901

        That’s 197 miles north of here 🙂

        I know there were one or two around Bonanza, but I don’t know where or when.

        If you know the hider you can look at their profile. You also could look at challenge caches that might have used that cache if it unique. Someone might have it on their bookmark list for the challenge.

          Noonan check this archived Virtual out GC3F19

          Asked Quad Explorer about adopting some caches and reactivating the virtuals. Still peeved about not having a way to do this quickly.

          I can help you out with that… No PMs here (yet), but you can email me the area and I’ll send either a PQ or a map.

          A day late, but I am thankful for squirrels and black cats!

          Where’s the thread???
