7.15. Archive or unarchive a geocache
Archiving a geocache is meant to be a permanent action. Only community volunteer reviewers and Geocaching HQ can unarchive caches. This is done only in rare circumstances and only if the cache meets the current geocaching guidelines.

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

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

----------

This cache is carrying one or more logs which suggest some attention by the cache owner is needed.

The guidelines advise that the CO should make occasional visits to check on the cache as well as promptly address any logs that indicate that the cache requires some attention. If you can not attend to the issue promptly, then you need to Disable the cache - I have disabled it this time.

Please respond to this situation (or indicated your intentions including a date) within **28 Days**, otherwise it will be necessary to withdraw the cache from the Active listing. The [Geocache Maintenance guideline](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance) explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported.

**And don't forget,** once you have addressed the issue, post both an "Owner Maintenance" log, see here; [Removing the Needs Maintenance Icon](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and an "Enable Listing" log, see here; [Temporarily Disable and Enable ](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) to get your cache up and running again.

Found an empty and abandoned cache container with plastic snap lock bag nearby. So, I'm claiming it... But no log book to sign I'm afraid. Will send photo to CO as proof of find. (Needs attention to keep it in the game) ... Tftc

This shrub is very brittle and was already showing damage. We just a cursory came up empty.

DNF today, so much rubbish but no cache, was here with people that have found it before and they confirmed it is gone.

A great afternoon out with Blackadders collecting some of the traditional caches around the Port Adelaide and Semaphore areas. Fantastic way to explore this new hobby, with expert advice and guidance!

However this cache remained unfound, and was unwilling to dig deeper with muggles around!

Came back for another look today, think this one might be MIA again. Can the CO please check

Just too many people here watching junior cricket. Maybe next time.

Needed a find for today but all I found at GZ was rubbish. Felt very uncomfortable with lots of kids just a couple of meters away, so after a 10 minute search decided to give it away. So many places it could be over the fence. TFTH

TFTC. Wow that took abit of searching. Dedicated to the recent loss of our 4 legged fur baby. Left baby

Another of the Wednesday wanderings for the befuddled. Targeting new hides in the area and a number that were still to be found by the Starfish. This took much longer than it should have. Round in circles until the prize was finally uncovered by the Starfish. Thank you for the placement of the Hans' Hideaway cache Jerome_Brulee find number 8512 on 20 October 2021 at 10:38 am

Back to Wednesday Wandering for some members of the Befuddled Puzzle Solving Group. We gathered at the Rat Nest and myself, Blackadders and S.A. Sewer Rats headed out for a day of caching in and around Lefevre Peninsular. Razz Except for one cache that is currently off line and 1 DNF we managed to find all we looked for. Big Grin As usual there were a few laughs, a picnic lunch and these are the caches we found [B)]Cool

Han's hideaway was very, very well hidden away. [^] Took us about 10 minutes of searching to find this bugger. Smile

Only one of the three goals from last year achieved. Twisted So once again trying and fill my calendar with multi-caches and complete loop 11 again this year. [^] For my third goal I will try and get my DNF numbers from over fifty to single digits. Cool That should keep me busy again this year! [:o)]

***Thanks Jerome_Brulee for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. *** Big Grin

A trio of befuddled Geo animals decided to go a wandering.
Our trio consisted of a Rat, a Starfish and an Adder.
We decided to target around the Port.
It was a warm but windy day.
Three geo animals searched here and there.
We were about to give up, when the Starfish found the cache.
Once the log was stamped, it was replaced.
A lot of laughs were had today. Tftc
 
19-Oct-21
After a solo morning picking off the odd cache or two, met up with Mattycat for some higher terrain caches and innner city hides, heading a little north west to collect some we missed last trip down now by torchlight we detoured to this one we played the night before at home and collected the prize after a much longer search than expected it blended in well of a nightime but perserverance paid off and we got our names in the book

Wandered down to Adelaide for the afternoon and met up with Mr Froghoppin.
Hopped around the suburbs and city finding a few caches along the way.
So many people in the city ewwwww, glad to be going home away from the crowds Cool

After much stomping around the plants and dodging dog walking muggles eventually Mr Frog spotted what the cat had probably already tripped over... nice to tick this one off!


Much appreciation Jerome_Brulee for putting this cache out on the SA geomap Smile

Caches everywhere are located and logged using some or all of the resources of GSAK (Geocaching Swiss Army Knife), Garmin Montana 750i, Montana 680t, Etrex 35, Samsung S20+, Samsung S9, with Geocaching App, c:Geo, or Geooh Go, and Android Auto and other maps... or often with just plain old dumb luck!

Please do stay safe when caching.
Lookout for mud, snakes, surprise cliffs, wild goats, wombats, bulldust, and lightning,
try not to get tetanus from rusty mint tins and don't fall out of trees...
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- but especially lookout for bugs. [xx(]

Make sure Travel Bugs are the only bugs you share and pass on Big Grin


We really appreciate all those placing quality caches out and about around the countryside,
it keeps our game safe, fun, and interesting Cool

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.

Despite a good hunt around, and up and down, we didn't find your cache today. Sad
Nup... not a thing Surprised Nil. Nought. Nothing.
Could be we have cache blindness. Could be we just need some more experience finding them... Wink
Lots of rubbish amongst the bushes here. And a popular spot for muggles and their pups.

Thanks for the challenge anyway Jerome_Brulee ,
will place on the watch list and return asap or when it's been found or maintained! Cool
 
07-Sep-21
Returned today with Mattycat for a relatively muggle free area for a search, alas not to be seen as with previous DNF we suffered cache blindness or the cache may have been removed with a cleanup or someone looking for tennis balls, till next visit TFTC
 
07-Sep-21
I stopped off here to look for the cache and like all those before me I couldn't spot anything that looked like a cache. Sad
I think this one needs to be checked.
 
07-Sep-21
This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.
 
22-Aug-21
Couldn't find it. Will have another look another day.

Out for a Sunday ride on my bicycle enjoying a dose of vitamin D

Keep smiling
 
17-Aug-21
After a enjoyable wander along the PATOG series for about 12 kms with Mattycat we turned our attention to a few on the peninsula, way to many muggles near GZ will check another day!

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Spending the day visiting contractors and collecting a cache or two along the way and this was next on the list as I drove past. stopped and parked opposite and wandered over to GZ being mindful off the minor muggle practcing basketball on the court. Searched a bit and widened the search area and after a bit more searching spotted something that turned out to be the cache. Stamped the log and then replaced all as found.
Gratias pro cache Jerome_Brulee

This one took us a very long time to find and in the end, it appeared someone had thrown it in the bushes, well away from where it was supposed to be [:o)].

Lots of dog walkers around this morning Razz.
Thanks Jerome_Brulee.

Owl had an appointment in Port Adelaide but some creative procrastination brought her out quite early to fill the time with caching. Hans proved to be elusive, but when the mini muggles moved on Owl was able to try a different direction and the cache revealed itself.

Thanks Jerome_Brulee for this cache. Hans sounds lucky to have been able to run here.
Caching with making pie, in the dark with a dodgy small torch.

I’m here after dark, and there are some shady characters on one of the tennis courts, but then they probably thought the same about me. Cache retrieved and replaced discretely.

The demise of a pet always makes me a bit sad. Nice tribute. TFTC.

TFTC! Nice quiet spot.

A relatively easy find, would have been a lot easier had I been using a torch.

A park I have visited previously to find geocachey things. Cooler today and maybe that kept the muggles at bay. Go Port!

I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count.

The cache was found in the last place we looked, which as usual was not the first place we looked. Thanks for placing a fun cache guys. We do love your work. We signed the logbook. Of course we did that is way we play this game. Cache in pretty good condition for the cache age.

Easter 2020 was supposed to see South Australia Geocaching hosting the next Easter big MEGA event, GeoVenture 2020 at Millicent. GC82DAN. Due to COVID restrictions the event is now postponed to early October 2021. Check out the event page and our website for new details. We would love to see you at this four day event. Mega event sponsored by Wattle Range Council, Geocaching.com and many other supporters. Lots of caches to find with two classic geo art trails including the famous animated bottle and glass.

This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and a Samsung S8. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs...

Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun.

New cache, arrived. So much rubbish here and couldn’t spot it from the first way in so around I went and easily found it. Maybe a CITO?

Today I went out to do some caches around port Adelaide that were yet to be found. 12 caches in total.

Thanks for the cache

After spending the second half of the day at the local Magistrates Court, I made a small detour on my way home to here where a quick and easy find was made.
