Travel Bug Transit Center Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Artemis: Greetings from Geocaching.com

I have been looking at caches in the area that have been temporarily disabled for a while now and it looks like your cache has been under the weather for some time. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time I don’t think we can do so any longer. Therefore, I have archived this cache. If you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

When repairs to this cache are completed and it is time to have it reposted, it will be no problem. Just drop me a note and let me know the GC waypoint number of the cache or better yet, the URL of the cache page. You will still be able to access your cache page just as before by going to your “My Cache Page” and clicking the link of your cache.

I will be more than happy to take a look at your cache again to see if it is still is within the guidelines of the Geocaching.com website for cache placement and posting.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thank you
Artemis

NOTE: Please do not log any travel bugs in an unlisted cache. Travel Bugs dropped in unlisted caches can give away your cache location before it is listed. Simply drop the TB into the cache after listing has been done.

[red]NOTE: do not reply by leaving a note on this cache. I am not notified if a note is posted to this cache. If you wish to respond to this message from the geocaching.com mail bot. Go to your cache page and e-mail Artemis from the log there or email me directly at Artemis.approver@gmail.com, referencing the cache URL's, or GCxxxx number. [/red]

How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

The purpose of this cache is to provide a quick and easy way for people to pick up or drop off travel bugs when they are flying out of or arriving in Phoenix via Sky Harbor International Airport. Please respect the TB's wishes on where it wants to go.

The cache contains 3 labeled bags: "Departing" for TBs that want a flight out of here, "Arriving" for TBs that just arrived and want to stay and see all of Arizona, and "No Preference" for TBs that have special goals or don't care where they go. Please place TBs in each bag according to their goals.

The cache is placed just south of the airport. Go north from University Drive on 40th Street, at the dead end. It is in a bush just east of the light pole, making the cache accessible for evening flights. Allow an extra 10 minutes before going to the airport to get this one. Just east on University (a minute from the cache) is the 153 freeway, which takes you directly to the airport. We made this one quick and easy for travelers.

The cache itself is a regular-sized black plastic container (pictures below). The logbook inside the cache is to not only log your find and what you are leaving/taking, but to also explain the goal of the TB you are dropping off. Please indicate whether your TB has just arrived/wants to stay in the Phoenix area, or wants to be picked up for a flight out of here. If a TB wants to head east to New York, please don’t take him with you on a flight west to San Diego. For TBs that just want some mileage, this is a great opportunity.

We hope you all enjoy this Travel Bug Transit Center!
