Saranna Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Hi, Me and my husband are beginner in geocaching. We enter the coordinates of a cache and went 3 times to the cache in 1 month. Today, i found the lid of the cache but not the cache. My husband asked me when was the last time someone found the cache. I looked into the site of geocaching and could'nt find the page of the cache. It is possible to find that page if the owner of the cache put it in the archive??? Thank you Virginie and Omar Quote Link to comment
+Airmapper Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 It's possible. If you posted logs to the cache page it will be in your history and you can access it through that. You can't search for archived caches, but if you have some tie to it like a log or being it's owner, you can still access the page. Quote Link to comment
+Great Scott! Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 If you know the GC waypoint number, you can search for it here: http://www.geocaching.com/seek/ Scroll down to Other Search Options and enter the GC number in the "by Waypoint" field If you know the cache owner's name, you can go to their profile page and view all of their cache placements, including their archived caches Quote Link to comment

+BlueDeuce Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Still have the coords? Maybe we could check that for the location. Quote Link to comment

Here's the coordinates: N45 26.098 W073 36.177 Name of the cache (I think?): CEGEP LAURENDEAU Edited August 17, 2008 by Saranna Quote Link to comment

Saranna Posted August 18, 2008 Author Share Posted August 18, 2008 GC140T1 is at those coords Thank you. Need my glasses. I was looking for CEGEP LAURENDEAU I did search the cordinates but had to many results that i did'nt look through... I did'nt understand that the cordinates where related to my principal cordinates... Thank you Anyways, i will report to the cache owner that i find only the lid. I think I'm the second one that this happened too. Quote Link to comment
