Archived Caches

[+Team MGGPS]

How are archived caches viewed?

I don't see the option for this on seek a cache or anywhere else.

You can't do a search for them, but you can visit the pages if you've logged them, or if you can remember the number the cache was assigned when it was logged in (the number at the end of the url). I think if you plug in the GC number in the search pages you will also get a hit on archived caches. You just need to know that number. Of course to do any of these you have to be registered and logged in.

Dan's Stats site lists ALL caches from an area, including archived caches. Example:

 

Early Dallas/Fort Worth caches

 

By simply comparing the caches on Dan's list to the caches on geocaching.com, or by just clicking the cache name on Dan's site, you'll be able to see which caches have been archived. By going to the last page of the listing, you'll be able to find the oldest caches, which often are most likely to be archived.
