+newfane1 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 I have tryed to use pocket quiries to find previously found caches for a mini Jasmer. Is there a way to get archived caches. I check off caches I have found and only get active caches. I've done this for several states with the same result. Simply, is there a better way to find that July 2002 cache I need as proof? Thanks for any help received. Mark Quote Link to comment
+Bear and Ragged Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Use the special My Finds PQ at the bottom of the Pocket Query page. Click "Add to queue" and it will be available from the second tab of the page, under "Pocket Queries ready for download". Can be run every three days. ALL your found caches are included, including Archived ones. Quote Link to comment
+Gitchee-Gummee Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 As noted above, a standard Pocket Query will not produce an archived cache, the reasons are obvious to some, not-so-much to others. But it won't do it. A 'My Finds' returns all caches that you have found, regardless of any condition (outside of log deletions). An alternative method is to check your caches found list. It would be a tedious search through 2,000 finds, but it will still be there! Knowing the actual find date would be a +! Quote Link to comment

Once you're looking at your finds, click on the "placed" date column at the top, which will rank them by placed date. For a 2002 cache, go to the end page and work forward. http://www.geocaching.com/seek/nearest.aspx?ul=newfane1 Clicking on "placed" and then going to the last page 111, then clicking next, to the 110 page, I see that newfane1 had found 2 caches placed in July 2002: Dirty Girty GC7331 placed 07/19/2002 found by user 04/25/2007 Hamlin Beach Geocache GC6E9B placed 07/05/2002 found by user 04/15/2007 Quote Link to comment
