Found this cache at the coordinates listed on geocaching.com. The coordinates are good, although the prime reviewer archived the cache citing failure to update the coordinates as the reason, they were updated on the same date that the cache was archived, the update notice appearing in the log before the archived notice. Since there are no time stamps on the log entries (only date stamps) and what occured in the background is not visible, it is difficult to say from my perspective exactly what happened here. On the face of it it appears that what occured is something people in the software/electronics industry call a race condition. Additionally I believe that the difficulty rating at geocaching .com of 1.5 is low. I believe that a difficulty of 2 would be more appropriate because even if you know right where the cache is located getting to it requires more than two pounds of effort. Additionally the cache appears to have been placed on private property without the permission of the owner. Although I cannot log this cache at geocaching.com because of its archived status, I can log it here.
*This would have been my 136th find, but it does not count at geocaching .com I am still going to count it as a CenTex find.
