4.23. Unarchiving a Geocache

The archiving of a geocache is intended to be a permanent status. That is why only community volunteer reviewers and Geocaching HQ staff have the capability to unarchive it. This is done only in rare circumstances and only if it meets the current Geocache Listing Guidelines.

If a geocache is archived by a reviewer or staff for lack of maintenance it will not be unarchived.

Geocache Description:

The location of this cache is near a monument erected in the suburb of Flagstaff Hill. Cache contains log book and pencil.

In 1837 Col William Light Surveyor General of South Australia erected at a point approx 100m east from this spot a 20 foot flagstaff. This he used as one of his many trig points whilst surveying the town of Adelaide. He resigned his position in 1838 because of constant interference from the authorities. He wrote "the reasons that led me to fix Adelaide where it is I do not expect to be generally understood...I leave it to posterity to decide whether I am entitled to praise or blame".
