The Pines Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

MainePublisher: All geocache placements must have a responsive owner. The cache owner must be able to respond to issues that come up and to submit an "owner maintenance" log to remove the "needs maintenance" icon.

In addition to the "needs maintenance" logs and DNF logs, Goundspeak also uses a Health Score algorithm. https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713

In this case, Groundspeak has sent an email to the cache owner with no response. The cache owner did not respond to any of the cachers hoping to find the cache and did not respond to the reviewer note so the cache is now archived.

The cache location is now open for any Geocacher to place a new cache, including the original cache owner.

Geocache Description:

This cache is a small plastic iced tea container directly off a flat walking trail that parallells the Kennebec river.

Park at the pull off on the Father Rasle Road which is right off route 201A/8 in Madison. This picnic area is known by the locals as the Pines. At the back of the picnic area is a well beaten walking trail that parallels the Kennebec River. While in the area visit the Monument to Father Sebastian Rasle. The related webpage (which I googled) gives you a history.

The original contents of the cache are: Logbook, American flag pin, US air force pin, Pokemon pin, laser light keychain, ear plugs, a bobber, Hunting Club Zipperpull, geocaching pin, matchbox hummer, Bratz poster, and the Bullwinkle the Moose TB. The container is fairly small.

This is the first cache I have placed...good luck!
