RedHiker: Hi chrisb52,
I see that multiple cachers have noted problems with your geocache. I'm going to disable it to remove it from the list of active caches. Please stop by to check on your geocache and fix the noted issues. Once you are done, please leave a note for geocachers and re-enable it. This will let people know they can look for it again.
If you can't verify that your cache is still in place, then it might be time to archive it.
As the cache owner of a disabled geocache, there are three options available for you:
As the cache owner of a disabled geocache, there are three options available for you:
1. Visit your cache, verify any issues with it, then fix and enable your cache within the next 30 days so that it can move out of this state of limbo.
2. After visiting your cache, if you are not able to fix it in the next 30 days, then please create a new log note on your cache page letting the reviewer know you are aware that your cache needs attention and how/when you plan to take care of it. The reviewer will monitor and reply to these notes.
3. You can archive your cache, remove your container, and clean the area as needed.
Please note that Geocaching HQ has placed greater emphasis on "refreshing the game board," which means that volunteer Reviewers will be more actively following up to ensure caches are maintained or archiving them as needed to free up space for new caches to replace any old ones that were not being properly maintained.
If you take none of the actions listed above as the cache owner, this geocache will be archived by a volunteer reviewer.
Please note that geocaches archived by a reviewer or Geocaching HQ due to lack of maintenance are not eligible to be unarchived.
