This cache is temporarily unavailable.

CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE


I've noticed this cache is in need of some maintenance which really does need to be addressed by the cache owner.

The guidelines indicated that periodic visits to check on the cache, as well as prompt attention to any logs that indicate there is a problem, are part of the cache owners responsibilities. If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to Disable it - I have Disabled it for you this time.

Can you please respond to this situation (or indicated your intention) within 28 days, so others know exactly what is happening with this cache?

You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:

  • Check on the cache, repair and/or replace the cache or do whatever else is needed, post an Owner Maintenance log indicating the cache has been checked and ENABLE your cache. Then sit back and wait for the praises.

  • If it is the cache page that needs maintenance, please make the necessary updates and post an Owner Maintenance log indicating the cache page has been updated and ENABLE your cache.

  • If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (within 28 days). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. For ongoing issues (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to speed.

  • If you don't plan on fixing it then you need to Archive it, so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when I next look at the cache page, it is likely that I will, unfortunately, have to de-list (Archive) it on the basis that it has been abandoned.

Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

Geocache Description:

Most of you know epsdoc, because his hides around the south metro area are challenging. He has some tough puzzles and some easy puzzles, but the one thing they all have in common is that they are all FUN!

I could find no better way to pay tribute to epsdoc's 2,000 finds than to present him with a puzzle!


Some facts about epsdoc:

epsdoc has been caching since August 2003.

He's cached in three different countries and twenty-four different states.

He's found a mix of almost every cache type, although his favorites are puzzle caches, of which he's found (at this time) 303.

The most he's found in a year was 571 in 2007 and the most found in a single month was 99 in November 2011.

And of these two thousand caches that he's found (thus far), here are some of the highlights:

Keiko's Cache (GCT749)
Laurel Pond (GCR12B)
Minnehaha Falls Park 2 (GCY9VQ)
The B.I.G. Cache (GCXEQ1)
Wood Lake nature Center II (GC7E9F)
Jidana 6 (GC13ZA8)

So, congratulations epsdoc on finding 2,000 so far! And here's one to get you started on the next 1,000!


You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.

Congrats to epsdoc, BigChiefS4, Rustynails, and Guitar Solo for the FTF!
