As there's been no cache to find or log to sign for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Requires Maintenance

Stopped and picked this one up last month and just didnt remember to log it.
I agree with paul the hippy horrible little spot rubbish and junk.
People are revolting with what they do to public land.
I do like the fact that there is a nice little car park to stop at and enjoy the walking trail.

This cache is beyond just drying, needs replacing.

What a horrible spot, litter, weeds and a wet useless cache. At least it was a nice walk along the trail.

Last find for the day! Didn't know this was right here until a new search when in the car. Parked right next to it! Cache waterlogged. Could not sign. Nothing left or taken.

Cache is wet as noted previously.
The site has become a dumping ground for building refuse - too much to 'trash out'
The council are on to it by the look of the 'illegal dumping' crime tape at the site.

I stopped by here at 15:45 for nice quick find, aided by the cache title. The cache could do with some major TLC as one of the hinges is gone and the logbook is totally saturated. I was able to get the time of my visit in before the pen started to run out and in the end, our name is more of an 'etching' rather than an inked entry .

TNLNSL, although our BYO pen geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks sevillegroup.

#348 Found cache ok but (like nearby caches) its contents are sodden (and has been for some time by looking at prior logs) - badly needs maintenance. Thanks for bringing me to this interesting spot sevillegroup.

11.29AM

Realised when I arrived back at the car that I had parked just 20M from GZ

Cache again damp, and I thing the Log book seems to have absorbed most of the water.

TNLN

Thanks for the cache.

Found while heading back home from Coldstream late this evening. Parked here to do 'No Deal' across the road, not realising there was a cache about 10m away.Quick find and log signed. Thanks for the hide.

Found at 1.15pm
Nice easy find but could not sign the log (way to wet)

Well the logbook was soaking wet, the log sheet was mostly saturated as well and the holes in the ziplock bag probably didn't help when the cache had enough water in it to water a small pot plant. To make things worse one of the hinges of the lid seemed to snap when I was trying to get all the water out of it (I wasn't rough, I promise). So I guess a trip from the cache owner wouldn't go astray.

Find 4/10 at 13:25. I wondered if the muggle in the car park was possibly a cacher, but then I realised that the caches I'd already done had no logs in the past two weeks so the odds seemed pretty remote. Thankfully he left rather quickly, leaving me to find the cache (probably did wonder why some guy was pulling into the carpark on a bike and focusing his attention to a particular spot). As I poured ~0.2-0.5L of water from the cache I realised he probably wasn't a cacher and I didn't even need to read the logbook to verify that there had been any recent visits. I tried to dry the cache out a bit though its contents inevitably remained damp. I did manage to find a patch on the log sheet that was dry enough to sign, though the rest of the logbook was saturated. I also rescued the somewhat wet TB Rescue geocoin. TFTC!

Out caching on a wet day with Xambo4U.

Out and about with Toy Car today. It is wet and miserable. After a successful morning of caching we took a hamurger break in a local milk bar to take stock of where to go next. We felt sorry for the owner there are we were the only people in the shop where the one 3 doors up was full and busy. We enjoyed our little walk along the Warburton trail. Container has taken in water which we have found most of them have today. Nice easy find.
Thanks for the cache. TNLN

TFTC

Cache in good order, endeavour to replace with a more water proof container. Logbook replaced.

to easy it needs somone to make it a little harder because mugles could find it

Killing time by myself today I found this cache @ 11:19hrs.
Continuing on down the trail... There is a lot more history out here than I would ever have imagined.
Thanks for bringing me out here.

A quick find on an overcast afternoon. The cache was wet and log damp. SL TFTC

Quick find. Waterlogged container - log damp. TFTC

Cool springloaded cache container Cheers Gav [6275]

A nice spot for a cache.
The lid of the cache seems to be spring loaded - awesome.

#338 Found at 2.00pm. The cache contents were a little wet so we dried it out as best we could - didn't have full caching equipment as we didn't have our GeoTriton. Quick P&G on a cold cloudy day - much rubbish around a CITO event would reinvigorate this otherwise lovely area.

TNLNSL. TFTC

Found the cache, signed the log book. The original on is very wet, but the extra sheets were all nice and dry.

Found on my night caching jaunt TFTC SL

Nice quick find on a night of caching TFTC TNLN SL

Steaming along steadily today. TFTC, LNTN.

Nice hide but cache still requires some attention as there was a fair bit of water inside. Signed new log page left by wongka.

morning out with eldest son. Log book is very wet so put in a new log page in separate plastic bag. TNLN TFTC

found it in a good little hide but the book was wet and could not be signed

Third find of the day. Couldn't sign the log as it was too wet. TNLN TFTC

#3/6 for the day

17:10 with ross47 and mum

as with other logs, found the container with water in it.
logbook wasn't in it's bag, which had water in it also.
let it dry out in the sun for a little while.
logbook still damp when we finally did replace the container.

TNLN

Easy find at 17:10 after parking some 15m away.

Cache was soaked - we spent a while with everything spread out in the sun. Everything except the log is now dry. With a little effort we did managed to sign the log. TNLNSL TFTC

Found it with barista86. As he says, it is waterlogged and pretty gross. Needs maintenance. DNSL. TNLN.

This cache contained a lot of water, so the log book couldn't be signed.

Found 16:00, unfortunately the cache was full of water, and the contents were soaked. We dried it out as best as possible but it will need some TLC from the owner.

TNLN, CSI=2, thanks sevillegroup.

Water has entered the cache and the log book is saturated,

An easy find right next to the car as I parked to walk to this cluster of caches.

A nice and quick find just the way i like them, As a previous logger said area is now looking like a local dump point now, Bummer!!!

On a day out with Rigger64 caching in the Seville area.
We could not believe there was a cache at the back of the very car park where we parked the geomobile. However a quick find before we walked off to find another cache. Thanks sevillegroup.

Found @ 1430Hrs
Out on a Clean up some Caches around Seville Day.
With Swaggie 1 From The Swaggies.
Well this one surtanaly did not have us stumped.

Found on senor Happy Chappie's big day out on the Warby trail....

Nice little tiny detour from the trail for this one, while I was still fresh!

An afternoon ride down the trail.

After having a fun time with A2Y caching for a few hours, he had to go so I decided to continue on for a while. This was the next one and was found without any problems in what was quite a good hiding spot.

Dropped off TB

Mrs Crackers was out with the Coffee Clan whilst Mr Crackers was still home recovering from his recent hip replacement and this was the ninth cache of the day. Mr Coffee volunteered to find this one whilst us girls plotted our next plan of attack so all that was left to do was for me to sign the logbook
Thanks again sevillegroup, I do enjoy this rail trail

By the time we got to this cache a light rain had started falling and whilst Shelby and Dianne sat and worked out another cache Watchout or whatever it was called I did the leg work of retrieving the cache.
With good coordinates and guidance from the iPhone the cache was found easily and logged.
Our thanks to the Seville group for bringing us to this location.
Regards Mr.Coffee and the "At least this one didn't stump me" Coffee Clan.

Another find for The Rebel Alliance. L.L.T.R.A

No guesses needed for this cache - the name kind of gives it away. No exchange was made. Thanks for the cache.

The torch on the Triton 2000 really came in handy here, and as I was wondering how come Eudes had not made it to this cache decided to give him a ring. Then realised we had not exactly listened to each other at Giddy Up Horsey #1. Eudes was making a find at snake, while I had headed to stumpy for a find at 5:35pm! We decided to head our separate ways home after a successful bushwalk, BBQ and 11 caches!
TNLN
thanks sevillegroup

Nice easy find took a soldier and left a red toy.
Thanks.

Amy and I had to sit here for 10 minutes while we waited for a family to unload all their bikes and organise themselves for a ride along the track. Once they were gone the find was made quickly in the obvious place. Later on I saw the same family riding and poor old junior had put his bike into the ditch. I couldn't help but laugh a little bit!

Cheers,

Easy find on a rainy day. Nice spot for a cache.

Having found several others by sevillegroup, I had a fair idea where to look, cache was soon found and signed

3rd find for the day found with Elaine and Toby (the dog) a nice walk and a great day for caching thanks for the hide

14.05pm.Maccamob and i were very near to this one so not too far to walk for this one.much more great old rail bed trackwalking and so much birdsong and getting more lessons from David about local wildlife,like there should not be any snakes here but it takes along while to totally beleive it.when we got to gz we did as we were told but im sure others have gone straight in,such good co-ords so an easy find in its neat spot.thanks for this cache.sltn.patandjeff=bones1.

Found by David in company with Bones1 from UK at 1405. We had parked nearby to do the previous cache, so had only a very short walk to GZ when we returned. Understood and adopted the recommended approach to retrieve the cache, although there is plenty of evidence that some may have not done so. Even so, the cache should be safe enough here. TNLN. Our thanks to sevillegroup continue.

Found this one quickly, although it was not quite where expected. Didn't notice a tightrope, but glad to have the find. Thanks for the cache.

Also not sure what the clue means but found the cache anyway

Find # 2662 and 7th of the day at 11:25am. Acccompanied by Chewinprickles and Robmc on my first whole day out caching for the year. Easy drive-by, TNLN, Signed Log, Thanx Sevillegroup....

Another one out of the way or should I say found. Not sure about the "thick tightrope" you mentioned though.
Thanks again sevillegroup

Very easy find (not a bad thing!!)TFTC

Another nice find in a nice area. Again it is being spoiled with all the rubbish! I dont understand why everyone can't just leave some of the crap in their cars, like we do!
Thanks sevillegroup for the cache!

Tricky hide considering the cache name.
There seems to be a lot of streets that used to go through, that are now gated.
Thanks, Robmc.

We parked very very close as you can do here and did this cache followed by another from the one spot.
TNLN
Thanks

One of the easiest caches completed today though a branch whipped across my face as I approached the cache site which took a bit of the gloss off the find.
Thanks Sevillegroup.

Found in the obvious place. TNLN thanks for the cache.

Found at 1.15pm GAFF1. We speculated how the cache was going to be hidden as we were approaching GZ and it was somehow gratifying that we were right. This whole area brings back wonderful memories from our big cycling event from a few years ago.
Thanks sevillegroup.

We found our 13th Sevillegroup cache at 1:50pm as the 13th of 15 on our "Nothing but Seville" midday caching jaunt. "H"s second find of the day. We not only drove right past this one earlier in the day when we were making the trip up to "Log Cabin" but we also almost parked on it when we went for "No Deal" a few minutes ago. Thanks for the cache from D,H & A B-A.

Nice day for a walk and a nice easy find. Found @ 11:45. Only a few muggles on the track. I was thinking that it would be a challenge to geocache in the area between the 27-29 of March as 2,000 Oxfam walkers do their thing. There would have to be a number of cacher’s in that lot. I’m not walking this year but will be volunteering doing track marking on Thursday and Friday.

TNLN TFTC Cheers Ric

Found @ 1635.

Another nice easy find, keep them up!!

Parked 4by here and picked this cache up and also 3 more. Had to wait for a four legged muggle.

I always love it when the TomTom has me parking at a convenient spot and, when I get out of the car and look at the GPSr, it's showing 3m to GZ . This was another nice, quick one in a nice location - which is just the way I like 'em

I had no trouble locating the cache and making my way along the tight rope where I was rewarded with a blank page and the FTF. I was unaware that seville had a tip but looks like I found it, looks like this area is a dumping ground for the locals and was rather unpleasant, I removed several bottles and cans but hardly made a dent in the mess. Thanks sevillegroup for the cache.

Found at 1140 hours, STF was hoping for a FTF, because when I left to go after this it was still up for grabs, but was beaten by acts2youthgroup, well done Eric. Haven't been on this part of the trail before today, that's why I enjoy geocaching it takes me to different places.
