no need to archive this cache. Someone else was willing to take it over. Unless
they want older caches to disappear and new caches to replace them so people
can hunt them instead of placing caches in "undesirable"(ie those
dreaded urban micros) locations. Thing is, I know we would get bored hunting
for new caches repeatedly placed in the same location. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:

adopt All Aboard Gone up in <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Prescott</st1:place></st1:City>.
I can't remember if the original owner was out of contact, but the logic was
that the container was missing, so the cache could only be un-archived to the
original owner, and not an adoptee. <br>
I read something in the forums that hinted that archived caches will be taken
off the maps soon, so the only way you would be able to 'find' them would be by
knowing the waypoint ID, or perhaps by looking at someones found list. <br>
Apparently 'cache permanence' is falling by the wayside, so stock up on
'Gladware' and just archive the cache and 'hide' a new one when the container
disintegrates.<br>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:

topic and as predicted, this is the response. GC seems to lean to
archiving rather that adoption if the original owner doesn't get
involved. There is a similar cache here in <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Missouri</st1:place></st1:State> that appears to have been quietly
adopted but is Disabled none the less. Unless the original owner speaks
up, I bet this one will be Disabled too regardless of it condition. I
guess I can see the point that a cache needs an owner, a point of
contact. Having to apply for a new cache at the location <br>
seems extreme but this is how GC tries to have control.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
