The Geocache Maintenance guideline explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported.

Please note that if geocaches are archived by a reviewer or Geocaching HQ for lack of maintenance, they are not eligible for unarchival. This is explained in the Help Center

Geocache Description:

A small cache placed just if the road by an old Archaeological site at Wadi Al Helo

The cache is a bison tube (Sadly didn't have anything bigger with me at the time)

There is not a lot info available about the site all I could find out was that Wadi Al Helo had a long history of habitation back to the early bronze age and is an archaeological site. And not to much more, So if anyone knows a little more please let me know and I'll add it to the info on this cache page.

The cache is easily accessible and you should be able to park your car right next to it. Please note the cache is just of a dirt road next to the sign "Wadi Al Helo, Archaeolgical site" in the direction of sharjah and if you are heading towards Fujairah or Kalba it might be quite hard to find a spot to turn around to get to the cache.

Congrats to Truegeo FTF
