+KA7CJH Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Seems like a while back when we used the old "Map It" map we were able to search for archived caches. Now I can't do that sort of search anymore. Is there any way to do this now? Link to comment
+CO Admin Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 There is currently no way to search for archived caches. Sorry. Link to comment
+tomfuller & Quill Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 If you remember who hid one that is now archived you can use "Caches hidden by XXXX" The list shows all caches hidden by that cacher including the archived ones. If you found one yourself before it was archived it will still show up on your profile. Link to comment
Keystone Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Pick a cache in the area where you are interested in looking for archived caches. Open the cache page. Under "Mapping Options," click on the link for the Geocaching.com Map. Pan and Zoom the map to the area to investigate. Check the box at the lower left of the map that says "List Archived/Disabled Caches." Finally, click "Identify" in the radio buttons below the map, then click on the map. If there are any archived caches, they will be shown with numbers on the map, and the corresponding cache links will show up in the list of caches below the map. Link to comment
+KA7CJH Posted March 2, 2007 Author Share Posted March 2, 2007 Thanks Keystone, That is was what i was looking for. I plan on adding a few new caches to my home town in May and just wanted to see if there was a cache there before. I will print these instructions out once I get home.

+gh patriot Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 is it limited to just 25 results in a particular area? Link to comment
+Lil Devil Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Yes, but you can pan the map over a bit to see another area. Link to comment
