[Az-Geocaching] Premature archival of cache near fire zone (it may not bedestroyed)

[RopingThe Wind]

Being that I have been geocaching for like 3 years and getting 'kinda' bored 
of it... I am always looking for something different to jazz it up (and no I 
aint talkin' about those dang uber micros)...

AZCachemeister is right too... anyone can go check on these or any other 
caches. I have thought about this with archived caches actually. I thought 
about it and thought it might be kinda cool to thumb thru the list of 
archived caches and thru reading each one, if I come across one I have a 
reasonable suspicion it might still be there... go out and try and find it! 
:)  There are lots of archived caches I didnt yet find and would like to 
claim the ones that are indeed still there. I would say for the most part 
urban caches that are archived probably are gone. But, there are some 
wilderness caches that I have read logs on and get this feeling that it 
might still be there.

There could easily be rare cases where the cache was moved too far from it's 
original location and the cache owner couldnt find it cuz it wasn't in the 
exact place they put it. Therefore, they archived it (rather than replace 
it)... when in reality, it was still there... just a bit off the mark. I 
could think of a couple of other examples as well.

So, something different to perhaps try for... seeking out lost caches! :) At 
the very least, it would allow me a nice hike into an area I may have never 
been before and would never visit since there isnt a cache there. Well, 
maybe there is!....
