finding archived caches


Recommended Posts

Is there a way to find a cache that has been archived. I know a place that would be good to hide a cache and mentioned that to another cacher. He said there was a cache there maybe five years ago. I do not remember that one and since it is maybe two blocks from my house would have gone for it. Just curious.

You can't search for archived caches on the geocaching.com site. If you know the CO (or one of the finders), then you can look in that person's history and find the archived caches that user owns (or has found), because archived caches remain part of your history. But that assumes that the CO (or finder) hasn't hidden such information from other users.

 

Project GC does allow you to search for archived caches. It might be a premium (paid Project GC membership, not paid geocaching.com membership) feature though.
