One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

Should you like to resurrect the cache please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

4.23. Unarchiving a Geocache

The archiving of a geocache is intended to be a permanent status. That is why only community volunteer reviewers and Geocaching HQ staff have the capability to unarchive it. This is done only in rare circumstances and only if it meets the current Geocache Listing Guidelines.

If a geocache is archived by a reviewer or staff for lack of maintenance it will not be unarchived.

Hi there Reviewer,

RE: The cache ""

I'm following up on my "Needs Maintenance" log which is now well over 30 days old.
There has been no action by the CO, who doesn't appear to be particularly active.
The cache appears to have been abandoned and should be archived.

Regards

Ian & Penny

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Hi there Joelisa.

This is the 2nd of 5 caches we didn't find today. [:(!]

We spent quite some time here at around 9:43:00 AM, but all we found was the remains of a ziplock bag containing scraps of what appears to be a log sheet. We added another log sheet but would rather DNF this cache.

Regards
Ian and Penny

Hi there Joelisa,

RE: Your cache **"Beautiful"**

Could you please do a maintenance run to repair the cache, or perhaps archive it, as it appears to be missing. (See our DNF Log).

Regards

Ian & Penny

My final day exploring Wagga. I stopped to log this find. Thanks for the hide. It was quite a walk in the bush and the container has been destroyed. I attach a photo as proof of visit.

Going through my found cache list and I forgot to log this one. As far as I remember, the WP was found and soon GZ location was solved. A long walk to GZ and I found the remnants of the cache. The log book was in good condition as it was in a zip-lock bag but the container was smashed and full of water. I didn't have any spare containers with me at the time.
It was a great cache but unfortunately, it seems to soon be sent to the cache grave by the reviewers. From the sounds of it, from the recent finders and DNF's, it is now completely gone. Goodbye 'Beautiful' by 'Joelisa' and good luck to next person to place a cache in this great location.
P.S. Found 5/5/17 and Logged 2/1/2018

Did not find

10601. Found during a caching run down to the Wagga region this ANZAC Day long weekend.

Day 2 of my trip and I was really enjoying the drive around Wagga. Despite the problems listed in the previous log I knew there is always another way of getting the required info. A bit of research last week revealed the numbers required and a likely GZ. So today I parked nearby and wandered along to GZ for a quick find. Log was signed, cache returned and I headed off to the next one.

Thanks Joelisa !

TNLN - TFTC !!

Unfortunately we could not get to GZ as WP1 is an enclosed construction zone - It appears the plaque or sign with the required information to find GZ has been removed

Hanging out at friends place while the car gets fixed. Turns out it's very close to a cache I've wanted to find for a little while. Nice, simple but fun cache. Cool container, however, I have encountered one like this before and had it opened in less than a moment. TFTC Joelisa

A great trip through the bush. Had some difficulty with keeping a gps signal. Found quickly once at GZ. TFTC

Awesome find and a nice little bush walk this is my first multi cache so it was pretty difficult but certainly rewarding when we found it.

Nice hide tftc

TFTC

Woo hoo, second attempt and we found it. Tftc

TFTC
Bit of bushwalking

Today we explored Wagga Wagga and surrounds with Whitewebbs using geocaching as a guide.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Found with Tassie Trekkers as we head to Stanthorpe for the Qld Mega. A clever cache container. TFTM

Found by Mary & David at 1750. Enjoyed collecting the numbers and working out the final coordinates. Took a while to get there, though, as the gardens had closed,and a more indirect path seemed necessary. Even so, a quick find once at GZ. Our thanks to Joelisa.

Just bought the full version after finding it with a friend . finally can log it !

3788. Found on a trip to Wagga from Morundah to a) finally fill in my caching calender, b) grab some supplies and c) do some caching.
A very interesting place to check out and a great place to gather some numbers.. We soon had the numbers sorted and after dropping off Relish64 for the supplies bit, I ventured off to grab this one and a few others.
Thanks for the cache.

Found it with jadeleassa and T-Chap while visiting the botanical gardens.

Got the coordinates from WP1 but we were not entirely sure if they looked correct. Did a double check and decided to go for it Found the container easily enough and jadeleassa opened it almost instantly without much difficulty!

Favourite point for the clever container and short multi

Another cool cache container by Joelisa - envious.

Found on our Wagga Wagga trip. After getting the other caches in the Botanical Gardens, we came here to answer the questions. It took a few minutes to find the name with the most vowels, even though we predicted earlier which one it would be we still looked through every one to see if we were correct. Once all the answers were solved, we found the cache later after getting some food and finding other nearby caches. A lovely walk at Twilight to GZ in a fantastic area. Once at GZ, the outer container was quickly found however it took a few minutes to sign the log. We thought it would take forever, however we looked at the details carefully and sure enough, the log was signed within minutes. Such a cool puzzle to solve, we had such a good feeling inside of us once we solved it! TFTC Joelisa!

Great Cache found with geohubby and geobubby. I enjoyed the walk to GZ. Geohubby had a little stumble getting to the cache location, but he will wear his crocs. Love the Cache Container. The inside was a pretty surprise. It was lovely walking back and watching the beautiful sunset. Thanks for the Cache Jolisa.

This is fantastic very clever and a lot of fun! The container is a real puzzle too Tftc!!

this geocache is definitly a puzzle!!! 8D

Enjoyed the multi and loved the cache - good one - signed the log. Thanks Joelisa.

We have returned from Canada to discover a few more Australian caches! What a great way to explore the "land down under."

Beautiful day. Had a picnic in the park with friends. After lunch picked up a few caches. Enjoyed this little multi.

Thanks for the fun Joelisa!

Weather is not bad, little hot day... Great enjoyed drive around of Wagga Wagga for caches, second visit to re-checked for answer correct, then count out to GZ as, finally right place, what a lovely walk on track, easy to find [:o] good one cache as very well hide, thanks

found this cache. it is in a very disguised location. good luck finding it
may all your cach finds be good ones, william6872

It was a beautiful morning in Wagga.... had to say that but it really is true, and with rain forecast for tomorrow it might not be the case. I took the geodog up to the beautiful Botanical Gardens and found the board with al the info. I counted a lot of vowels etc. and had some co-ords.

We then ventured up into the bush where geodoggie was in heaven near GZ when we met 3 labradors. The owner siad he hadn't had a single tick in 10 years which was reassuring. Sydney is full of them.

We ventured off the main track and found a suitable location for a cache which looked pretty standard at first but then had a beautiful surprise inside! I carefuly examined and then retrieved the log book. Nice work joelisa TFTC!

Wagga weekend trip with Mtrax, Tankengine and Noikmiester to visit new caches and find the Riverina trail Day 2. It was good to do a few multies on this trip and this one was fun. I find it interesting how important this contest seems to be locally. After the counting and the maths we had a nice walk up to the cache. Thanks.

9:42:00 AM: (113 of 133) Find#4912
Weekend trip to Wagga to complete the RGGT series and others in and around Wagga. Travelled down with Tankengine , Alibda and Norkmiester
Day 2 and some more caching in Wagga.
Grabbed the clues and did some Ingress capturing too so two games on the go..found our way through the Zoo to get to the GZ.. bit of a walk but didn't know about the zoo before , worth returning if I come back to town again.

Phew! Found it! Nice really - but always nervous when walking this far without a checksum to confirm we had the correct coordinates! (Hint: a checksum woud be most welcome - especially on a cache like this where it is really easy to make a mistake!).

Once at GZ, we though OH NO! Another puzzle! But that was OK - lots of fun

Found on our mini Wagga invasion from Canberra with Mtrax, Albida33 and Noikmeister! The weather forecast was doubtful, with showers predicted on Sunday, but we had 2 wonderful days, with barely a cloud in the sky, let alone any rain!

We spent 2 days here, also enjoyed a nice dinner with fellow cachers in the evening, had a sleepless night in the local hotel, with roudy types making noise in the corridors until the wee hours of the morning, and cought up with another fellow cacher for lunch on day 2.

Found around 130 caches all up - can’t complain about that! Thanks joelisa.

Found at 9:43:00 AM.

Headed out to Wagga with mtrax, Tankengine and albida for a power trail and other caching.

Stopped the mad rush for trads and did a couple of multis. What a very odd leaderboard! Nice stroll to GZ.

Thanks joelisa

Some time ago I visited the clues to this one with Mrs Murf. This area has a special significance for us, as we were married in the tree chapel. I finally had a day free in Wagga with some time to look for some caches while Mrs Murf and Little Miss Murf were at a meeting, so I headed to the gardens and checked the map to see what kind of a walk I was in for.

A beautiful day for a walk, some runners past me along the way, but noone was around for when I left the beaten track and sat quietly with this cache.

Thanks for the excuse to return to a beautiful part of Wagga, and for some exercise!
Cheers,
Murf.

A nice little multi, and a quick find.
Cache in good order.
Many thanks, Joelisa

Well this has taken me a very long time to find, but boy have I learnt a lot about using a compass. Thank you. It was fun.

Did the co-ord and moved to the cache TFTC Joelisa

TFTC lots of walking today! we have had fun!

Thanks for the cache

Solved the first part a while back but had GPS set to wrong thing. Went straight to it with correct settings, box proved too difficult for kids but mum soon had it open. TFTC

Pleasant stroll we thought but turned into a bit if a trek. Moving the coin westward

2076 Found by baby&Mrs gopher at 1245.It has been so long since we walked this area.Lived in Leavenworth Dr. for a number of years before moving to our current location at The Rock.We down loaded this when it was first published but didn't finish the job.Came across this type of container in Victoria some time ago.SL left coin Tnx joelisa

Loved this adventure... Had no idea where we were heading! Great girly one THANKS!

We initially tried to start this multi in the early afternoon but at the listed coordinates we found people setting up for a wedding later in the afternoon. We decided to head off and tackle some other caches and come back later. Well our timing wasn't the best as it was dark when we returned. The information at WP1 was collected quite easily and then, in the dark, we headed off to GZ. We were fortunate in that earlier in the day we had walked through the area where the cache was hidden and were prepared fo the type of terrain and the tracks. Even so, it wasn't that easy navigating our way to GZ in the dark with only a torch. Once at GZ a quick find was made - the coordinates were very accurate. then came the challenge of getting acecss to the log book. Luckily we had seen a similar cache container in Tassie and had developed a von-destructive strategy for gaing access. The strategy also worked in this instance. After signing the log and rehiding the cache, we then set off in the dark to get back to our car. An interesting muti joelusa - Thanks.

Fantastic Hunt! Climbed the tyre wall on our way to GZ. Great work Joelisa! Got in to it heaps. Great puzzles.

My first cache since I created an account. TFTC joelisa. Frustrating but fun!

GZ was very after the recent rains but the cache contanets were bone dry.
TFTC

This cache went from the most beautiful location to the not so. TFTC

#296 found at 1124 on a beautiful sunny morning after doing the beautiful calculations I went for the beautiful drive to arrive about 50M for the beautifully located GZ. A short walk to to beautiful GZ saw the beautifully constructed cache in my some what ugly hands. After admiring the beauty of the container I set my hands and brain in action. Finding the beautifully presented internals of the cache container in a matter of moments and began to find a page to sign the log on the was a beautiful log and signed on an awesome page. Returned the cache to its correct hiding position and went away thinking the was a beautiful way to end "A Multi A Day for 30 Days" personal challenge. Now I have achieved 61 consecutive days of caching and think it is time to achieve the next milestone of 300 caches before years end only 1 day to get 4 caches I think this will finish a beautiful year and a beautiful start to my caching career.

I am adicted to this little chasing a hidden log to sign and find the next one.

Thanks joelisa for a wonderfully beautiful cache and it was great to meet you at the riverina christmas event. Look forward to your next beautiful cache.

TFTC, It was a beautiful sunny day and had a bit extra time, so I thought I would do a beautiful multi cache. Got a beautiful park for way point one, had the whole place to my self. Worked the GZ out quick smart, beautiful. Back to the car, moved what I thought was nice and close to GZ. Turned out I could not have parked further away, beautiful work, hinklenator. Took a beautiful little track, up past GZ, way to far, beautiful work again. Destracted by the beautiful day and walk, over shot again, bloody beautifull. Back again to a beautiful little secluded spot. Found cache quickly, beautiful. Got cache out, a puzzle, beautiful. Thought better sit down for this one, but as I sat down, the beautiful little cache opened, beauty I thought. Cache was more beautiful on the inside than expect, it was a beautiful surprise. Signed log with the beautiful sun beaming down.

Thanks for a beautiful and delightful adventure, you get one beautiful favourite point for this beautifully done cache. You beauty.

I had to do this one over two days as there were a gaggle of geese (old women) planning a ceremony right where I needed to be. so I took a photo to do what I needed to. I returned the next day to gz (the hard way)to claim the good hide. I will be involved in the crowning of miss Wagga Wagga 2011 on 5th Nov. and have been involved in quite a few over the years. Thanks for your effort. Look forward to more of your caches.

Found with o'cholio. Great to see some quality new caches appearing around Wagga that aren't placed by the usual suspects. Keep up the good work.

All O's and a Sir Maxy were on hand to work out the details a few weeks ago, but didn't get around to making the find. Sir Maxy had a tremendous time chasing ducks near the water and we had to keep a close eye on him while trying to work out vowels! . Great effort on this one, keep it up! TFTC joelisa.

It was a great day to go wandering, haven't been up this way in a while. TFTC!

Found on a great sunny afternoon drive around. There was much activity at the park but none near WP1, so it was a nice easy find of the answers for GZ.
At GZ it was very quiet and a nice place to sit and log the find too thankfully.
Well done joelisa, a very good multi to attract people to an important part of the park. TNLNSL TFTC,
Roostaman.

Found and logged at 11:15, After counting all the vowels at WP1 I soon had the coordinates for GZ
After a plesant walk I soon had the cache in hand, However opening took a little longer
Thanks joelisa and well done

great little find, loved the container. TFTC

We found the correct winners and answers required at the starting point and soon had a fresh set of co-ordinates to work with.

The torch came in handy at dusk with the fading light and the cache revealed we had the right set of co-ordinates.
We always enjoy the walk around these particular areas and tonight was the same with the place to ourselves.

We logged in the second place position and also gave it a "favourite tick".
This cache had it all.Great starting point, nice hike in, good hiding spot and a magical finish all in a multi.
Very impressive for a first cache ever and full congratulations all round.

Looking forward to many more.
Three cheers for the joelisa team,well done.

1417 it was found, a belle multi cache and multiple layers of Bella, thanks Joelisa for this cache. Zalean was 3rd to find. I enjoyed the rain although while opening the cache, God gave me a little sunshine to work with, and it started raining again when I got home.

Headed off to waypoint 1 not long after the notification came through. Had a read of the required information and did the maths then it was off for a walk in the gently falling rain to a beautiful bush location where a beautiful cache awaited us. The beautiful container succumbed to gentle pressure and opened to reveal another beautiful sight as well as a beautifully blank FTF space. Signed at 1235.

Thanks joelisa for a beautiful experience and congratulations on your first cache
