Archived caches are around and I had actually found one without knowing it. I use a geomate and I didn't update it. I found just a log and plastic baggie hidden in a tree.
Have you ever found an archived cache?
Have you ever been out searching for a cache only to go home and find that it's been archived?
Have you ever had a cache archived?
lets chat about it

My area has a bit of a problem of caches being archived and people not picking them up, at that point it seems like trash. I have found archived caches sometimes near new caches and it sucks because you think "yes I found it" only to find out it is not. I guess I see archived caches being left behind as a problem.

There was a reminder in this week's Groundspeak newsletter about the caching season going into high gear. They also said that vacations were a time for making memories but "not for placing geocaches" since if you place a cache far away from home then you can't maintain it if it goes missing or gets damaged.

I just archived a cache I had at a huge rest area in northern Kentucky near Cincinnati. I'd had it there for years but being a film canister it kept getting damp and going missing after a good storm. Someone else had a new cache there that was better protected so I've left the duty to them since I live too far from the site to do regular maintenance on my own. It had a good run though with several hundred hits (not counting the hundreds for the prototype that there before this one for a few years.
