CTReviewer: Greetings from Geocaching.com

I have been looking at caches in the area that have been temporarily disabled for a while now and it looks like your cache has been under the weather for some time. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time I don’t think we can do so any longer. Therefore, I have archived this cache. If you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

When repairs to this cache are completed and it is time to have it reposted, it will be no problem. Just drop me a note and let me know the GC waypoint number of the cache or better yet, the URL of the cache page. You will still be able to access your cache page just as before by going to your “My Cache Page” and clicking the link of your cache.

I will be more than happy to take a look at your cache again to see if it is still is within the guidelines of the Geocaching.com website for cache placement and posting.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks for your understanding,
CTReviewer

Geocache Description:

A small cache to mark the start of a nice canoe/kayak trail.

I've used this area several times and decided that I need to call a bit of attention to it from the caching community. With a little work and recognition this could be a real gem. Mattabesset River Watershed Association has done a fine job marking a water trail. At the start here, there is a sign complete with laminated maps, and a ramp for assisting your launch into the river. Once on the water you never really get away from the sound of Rt 9, but the view is outstanding. I placed this cache on a very rainy weekend and the water level was way up. With that in mind I don't believe that this cache will be swept away as it was well above the water line. Anything can happen. The terrain rating reflects the wetness and steepness of the banks. While this is the start of the trail, don't forget to find a micro at the end, Harbor Park / MRCKT End (GCRRG8). And along the way see if you can locate (GC1CKVP) Log the Cog.
