Where do you get archived caches from?

Where do you get archived caches from?

Platinum members get access to all archived caches.

But anyone else can get most of them by going through every log of every cacher who has ever placed or found a cache in Maine and checking every cache that person has hidden in Maine and saving the individual gpx file from there. It was tough when I started saving this data in 2003, I can imagine it'd be a lot tougher now.

I still have to maintain my archiveds somewhat manually - every week I check for caches in my database that did not come through on the PQs, and then the logs are loaded for that cache, because I use the log dates to determine what day they were archived and by who. I could automate this process some and I might in the future, but doing it manually helps me remember which ones are gone.

I am still not 100% sure I have every cache published in Maine, but I should be real close.

You need to check mine again.. I think I am at 100% now. But I may have missed one or two.

According to my database, 27 of your 44 active caches link to the site, for a percentage of 61%. If you have just updated some of the caches in the past couple days, my PQs may have come in before you changed them and it will be reflected in the next update. Here is the list I have, a 0 means the cache does not link to the site and a 1 indicates it does.

Sorry for the poor cut and paste formatting!
