As the cache owner, you are also responsible for physically checking your cache periodically, and especially when someone reports a problem with the cache (missing, damaged, wet, etc.). You may temporarily disable your cache to let others know not to hunt for it until you have a chance to fix the problem. This feature is to allow you a reasonable time – [b]normally a few weeks[/b] – in which to arrange a visit to your cache. In the event that a cache is not being properly maintained, or [b]has been temporarily disabled for an extended period of time, we may archive the listing[/b].

It may be difficult to fulfill your maintenance obligations if you place a cache while traveling on vacation or otherwise outside of your normal caching area. These caches may not be published unless you are able to demonstrate an acceptable maintenance plan. It is not uncommon for caches to go missing, areas to be cleared, trails to be blocked or closed, objects used for multi-cache or puzzles to be moved or removed, etc. [b]Your maintenance plan must allow for a quick response to reported problems.[/b]

Como owner, se tiver planos para recolocar a cache, por favor, contacte-me por [url=http://www.geocaching.com/email/?u=sup3rfm]e-mail[/url].

Lembro que o "desarquivamento" de uma cache, e a sua eventual consequente reactivação, passa pelo mesmo processo de análise como se fosse uma nova cache, com todas as implicações que as guidelines indicam.

Se no local existe algum container, por favor recolha-o a fim de evitar que se torne lixo (geolitter).

Abraço e obrigado,

Geocache Description:


SALTO DA FARINHA
A costa norte é forrada de altos e íngremes penhascos, onde se perde o fôlego em vistas para o mar turquesa.

A estrada norte, de acesso ao concelho mais distante da ilha: o Nordeste, é bastante calma e sinuosa mas vale bem a pena porque se apresenta sempre decorada a rigor com a época do ano, fazendo-se rodear de árvores e flores de cores fortes e atraentes (na maioria hortênsias e azáleas).

O Salto da Farinha, situado no limite da freguesia da Salga, é um dos vários miradouros da costa nordeste e de onde se pode observar duas cascatas com cerca de 40 metros de altura (o que dá o nome à queda de água que, caindo de tão alto parece farinha!).
Descendo até ao fundo, por uma via estreita, há um largo onde pode estacionar o carro. A seguir atravesse a ponte e siga o caminho estreito em "s" em direcção à base da cascata (e à cache). O piso pode estar escorregadio... peço atenção especial caso levem crianças!

The north coast is covered by high and steep cliffs, where you lose your breath in view of the turquoise sea.

The north road, access to the most distant county from the island: the Northeast. Is very quiet and winding but worth the pain because it always presents, specially decorated with the season, surrounded with trees and strong colors flowers.
The “The flour’s jump”, situated on the edge of the parish of Salga is one of many viewpoints of the northeastern coast, where you can observe two cascades of about 40 meters in height (the water, falling so high that seems flour!).
Down to the bottom, a narrow street, there’s a park where you can park the car. Then cross the bridge and follow the lane in "s" towards the base of the waterfall (and the cache). The floor may be slippery ... a special attention if you take kids!
