Archived Geocaches: Washington

[Guest Seth!]

for those states.

I was looking through some of my old finds and found this one: Ford Creek Centennial House. The old historical house next to which this cache was located was burned down, and the cache went with it. It needed to be archived, so I did so.

Sounds like a good idea. These 2 in my area were archived in the last week or so. I don?t think the owner will be listing them here in this forum.

GC2542 Plane Cents - Cache Mania #4

 

I have been thinking about replacing the Plane Cents cache. We?ll see.

I took a look at those two archived caches. Steam seems really peeved towards Geocaching.com -- any ideas why?

Near as I can figure someone was purposely plundering their caches. I'm trying to find out if that was it. Plane Cents was a gem of a cache.

I am archiving my "Jetty Island" cache until such time as I can replace it. A little island maintenance seems to have buried it with a bulldozzer.

I wondered the same thing the other day when I discovered they had been archived.

At first I thought he sounded upset with the site, but after digging through some old caches and logs, I think he was just disappointed with his experience placing caches. I went back through my old finds to check on his other caches. It looks like he had a few go missing back in December. I had found them right after he placed them, and while they were fun, it didn?t surprise me that they disappeared (a little too urban and open). For Cache Me If You Can, it sounds like he was disappointed that people weren?t sticking with his holiday theme. I think that might have pushed him over the edge. He had found a few of my caches lately and his logs show nothing but enjoyment.

That's too bad. That's a very memorable one for me, in a beautiful area. I see that a ranger found it and removed it, which I suppose is expected (sadly) as it was on National Wildlife Refuge land without official permission.

TravisL's summary of his first 49 cache finds (see this thread) mentions another recently archived Washington cache: WAPTO STASH.

Here are a couple more archived caches:

 

History And Picnic

 

Lets Go Camping

 

Home Page

[+EraSeek]

Looks like my last post got wiped out with the switch. My "Dunlin Wings" cache is archived till I can replace it sometime in the future.

 

[+Whidbey Walk]

Bayview Baby isn’t archived but it is gone. I emailed the owner a couple of days ago and suggested that they could temporarily disable or archive the cache but haven’t heard back.

I was in the area - so I dropped by to check on Golden Child - a cache I'd previously hit - to find it missing.

 

In the logs it says it was archived by iryshe on

March 11. The cache was very well done / in a good location / etc....

 

What's up?

The guy who hid it (while not a member of my nefarious organization) apparently got a bit hacked off. It seems that he 'took his ball and went home'. This was due to the archiving of his Suna Whosit Mama cache--or whatever it was called. }

Bayview Baby has been archived.

 

[+Seth!]

If you know of ANY geocaches in the state of WA that have been archived in the past few months (and you don't see them in this thread), please post them here. I am adding these to the archived list:

 

Saturday Morning Cartoon Cache

Alien Invasion

Grill Hill kissin bridge

Pretty flowers.....

Geology Geocache #4

Wooden Faces & Marsh Maddness

Rocks

Billie's Memorial cache

 

Please note: This does NOT include temporarily disabled geocaches. JUST archived geocaches. Thanks.

Me thinks I just screwed up... chorse had noted on my 4H Skys the Limit cache that he had trouble finding it. So I went there today and sure enough it has vanished, RATS !! So then I thought I should quickly go and "archive" it but now I'm thinking I should have just "temporarily disabled" it (whatever the criteria for that is). And now I don't see the option of "un-archiving" it! I am going to replace the cache with a new one. Any help in the proper procedure would be greatly appreciated....thanks.4H Skys the Limit cache

If you permenatly archived it you can bring it back (unarchive it) by sending an e-mail to Jeremy asking him to do so. It helps to send a link or the Geocache # along with your e-mail.

 

[+Wander Lost]

We had to archive The End is just the Beginning. It was stolen about the same time as Wooden Faces and Marsh Madness.

Half a dozen geocaches have been archived recently but are still on my radar. Any ideas which ones?!

[+slinger91]

I noticed "Columbia River Bend" is on your list. It was archived back in March.

Seth,

 

Pre-Roundup 1 was archived because it was looted. I will replace it when I get a chance but it will be in a different location nearby.

[+Seth!]

Thanks Slinger91 and Seattle Seekers. I removed them. Keep posting those archived geocaches.

This cache has not been archived but from the looks of the recent logs, I am almost sure its toast, and the owner hasn't responded???

-Steilacoom cache-

[+Seth!]

I know that there have been two in the last week or so, not including "Stumpy's Wildwood Stash". That was archived today. Please let me know!

 

Seth!

[NW Runner]

Fircrest tresure went down for good. It was looted for the 3rd time.

[+6 Pack Rats]

A log posted on "Primrose Pool" cache said that the cache was closed because the neighbors were complaining.
