Pocket Queires

[+The CacheHounds!]

Hello, we have been away from the caching scene for awhile and I just have a quick question. I am still able to build pocket queries with some success, However when I create one with a date before the year 2000 I get zero results. Any help would be greatly appreciated..

There were no Geocaches prior to May 1 of 2000.

It just may tell you why you cannot find one placed before 2000 AD.

Anything placed before 2000 AD is BC (before caching). []

Although there are a few caches out there that have their Placed date artificially changed to a date before that date.

Before GEOCACHING, yes. But CACHING itself predates written history.
