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.

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.

This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.

Searched with a previous finder and could not locate.

On a visit with Knightyme and didn't find it. Muggles were pleasant.

Out for a caching morning with Shaido after we attended the 'AAArrrrrre Ye Wantin' Breakfast Mary?' event.

We had a look about, and could not find it, looking at the other logs, it seems it has moved locations courtesy of a past flood. The CO has not logged in for several years, and last find was over 6 months ago, thus my recommendation to archive this, as the location seems good to have a cache close by.

Lot of debris in the area, but no cache for us tonight.

Sorry guys with so many DNFs I think this needs some owner intervention.

This was a really cool spot for a geocache, only thing is there is evidence that the floods have crept in and possibly taken this one away. My kids still had fun on the bridge though so although we did not find the treasure, we had fun doing it.

Probably swept away

Having completed an audit against my finds and those of The Wackys, now logging those that I have missed. Many caches over a number of years. These days I actually keep up.

Thanks for thecache.

Found with Robtas and/or The Wackys

Cached

Definite evidence of flooding DNF

Major flooding recently DNF

I think it got swept away in the flods

FOUND IT after 15 minutes of searching. TFTC!

Nice quick find at an amazing old structure.

TFTC HuntingChicken

With a cold drizzly day promised, we decided to "break out" and visit Tanunda doing a few caches on the way.
The rain had eased by now and the ford gave an opportunity to wash some mud off the car.
Took awhile and how sneaky is Hunting Chicken!!??

TFTC

Found it! TFTC

What a great spot, tftc. Third and final cache before netball!

Great spot!

Did take a while but foind it

Came through here a week ago with the Heysen Group but didn't have time for a thorough look.

Today, I had plenty of time to search and found it easily.

Thanks for the cache, HuntingChicken

Nifty hide!! Don't wear a watch to find this one!

Tricky find but found with briski6

Briski6 & lefty

Great spot! Tftc

Going by the name we suspected it to be on a playground.

Out with sir_spectre for a days caching heading out to nuriootpa and grabbing the occasional cache along the way. Thanks

you get 1/2 a fav point for it not beening a playground gz as I thought by the name but the rain would have kept the children indoors anyway. rod81w made the find, it was on his side of the structure

Tricky. Took ages lol. Found with raven 74 & haiden 96

This is a devious one but great found with hellsbells6 and raven74

Well done! Very sneakily done. Haiden96 Hellsbells6.

Thanks Cached

The GOTHs were back together for a couple of caching days. We even had a newbee GOTH in training along for the ride. Today's crew was myself with Mrs. Aussie M&M, mogni and Alternika. So of course the travelling watermelon came out once again.
As usual it turned into fun and frivolity. I wore some pre-torn daks so that box was already ticked. The other boxes of 'a fall' ,'blood being spilt' and being 'outside my pocket query' were also ticked during the day. I only put 3,000 in - what are the chances we could stay in there.
Today's target was a bit of maintainance in the Barossa on our way to do some Burra caching. [:o)]
I can't believe two years have passed since I last attempted this one for a DNF. Having pretty well explored every inch of the target that day I had a fair idea of where I would have hidden it. Sure enough checking the likely spots I soon had the container in hand. What a great start to the day, getting a DNF off the list. Thanks HuntingChicken.

GOTHS out on a day of caching and giggling..... Training a new Goth and enjoying a beautiful part of the state. It took us a short while to spot this one, but was in a great little hidey hole.
Thanks

Thanks to the Goths

Could not find it and lots of muggles around .

A clever hide that almost bamboozled me. TFTC

Looked for 20 minutes and couldn't find it!! We will try again. Must be tricky

Found on way home today wanting to claim leap year prize along the way.

Lovely weather for a quick find.
Thank you.

We headed to Tanunda to spend time with our daughter and a friend who has newly converted from muggle to geocacher - congratulations to Rob for his wise choice of a new hobby. Will it consume him as it consumes others or will he be able to control the urge to cache, cache and cache some more.

Sagittarian Lady was the one to spot this hide. It is good to be young and agile. SL TFTC

With Rob and Muff1

Hi

This was one of my finds today of totally more then 50 searched and 50 found.
I did a bike tour around Tanunda and Nuriootpa, in total I made about 53 Kilometer.
I will made the log entry most of the time the same, this should not show any disliking to the cache or the cache owner, it´s just that this are to many caches for me to remember

I would like the cache owner for there work, thanbk you very much.

TFTC

Found it!

Squirtle Squad strikes again.

Found it

tftc

Another great find while in the area
Thanks for setting this cache up.

Really good fun!
SL

Nice quick park and grab. tfth!!

Awesome little bridge. I tried to make friends with the local Geese but no luck there. At least I found the cache! TFTC TNLN SL

Interesting bridge

What a cool spot, we are looking forward to walking across it when we get this far on the Heysen Trail! Thanks for showing us the Tanunda Swings, and for the hunt this afternoon

Out with geograndchildren to look for treasures. TFTC

TFTC Geese!

What a fun little spot. A very obvious geotrail helped make this a very quick find. Cleverly hidden though. TNLN TFTC

Found it

Found On a nice morning walk with Geokid in toe.. love the bridge. Tftc. Cheers.

Tricky

Nailed it! Tricky one ft. Kirsty, fizz and messed king leb

Tricky!

Mr Tardis was heading home from the Nuriootpa caching event, and stopped by here to grab this one. Such a fantastic location, of course I had to try it out.

A quck search and I found the cache safe and sound in a good hiding place.

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Cached & HuntingChicken.

Attempt number 2 and got it!!!

Tftc took a bit of looking but got it!

It isn't any where

It was not there:-?

Found! Cleverly hidden!

Ok I visited where the cache would have been and it's still there right were I left it.
It's not hard just got to look in the right spot.

Happy Hunting

HuntingChicken

Is it here anymore? Owner maintenance in nov and nothing since??? Could not see it anywhere usual

Had a look. No luck...is this cache here still?

It was there last time I looked. It is hidden well, I will check tomorrow and let you know
Thanks.

Forgot to write yesterday about the pretty Christmas lights someone has attached to the bridge with Christmas music on. If you visit just to see the lights, I'm sure you'll get just as much enjoyment out of this cache.

Visited my sister for Christmas tea in Tanunda. Very nice meal.
Decided to revisit this cache. Despite not having a GPS remembered where the bridge was, but couldn't remember where GZ was.
Philip followed the trail of flattened grass and found a metal container only containing a Huntsman spider. No log.
We trust this was the cache we were after.
We will keep an eye out so we can formally log this as a found.

will find out why it is missing and replace will note when fixed

Seems to have moved a little according to previos finder, certainly not in plain view now TFTC

TFTC
What a great location very sneaky

Tftc sneaky hide!!

TFTC team Uslot

Cache has now been fixed happy hunting

The Cache has been found and replaced better than ever.
Happy Hunting

This was 1 of only 4 in the main area of Nurioopta and Tanunda that we had not found prior to todays fabulous 7 souvenirs event.

Well we DNF'd 3 of the other 3 and then after seeing the CO's note this morning and subsequently meeting him at the event we made sure to head to this before our day was over.

On arrival at GZ it didn't take Mr Felix long to track down the cache. Nice work on the cache placement but weren't sure why there were 2 logs in place so we signed both[?] [^]

TFTC HuntingChicken

I am sorry to everyone who didn't find the cache I have been out of the country I have just recently returned and found out it needed maintenance I an in the process of fixing it and it will be back up and running on the 18/8/14 i am very sorry and I apologise for any inconvenience I hope that if you didn't find it before you might want to try again.
Regards
HuntingChicken

Didn't even bother looking with all the DNF's

Have emailed the CO.

We could not find it.
It was just to hard.
&

Can't find it might need confirmation it's here

We just had to come and see for ourselves that this one was not there. The owner of the home will go and use his whipper snipper to clean the area he believes the cache might have fallen on to the grass.
On our watch list.

I think this is gone. See last few logs!

Picked up Aussie Mary for a some cache maintenance in the Barossa Valley. Of course we had to stop and try a few caches between maintenance visits.
No luck today. A local stopped and said we we close to where it should be but he hadn't seen it there a fortnight ago!. Owner might need to check.

Stumped on this one. I have a feeling we were looking right past it. We are going to have to come beck to this great spot to try again at some stage.

Geo Kids went looking for this one on a lovely day at Tanunda. We thought she would find it as it was "obvious" but after checking all the obvious and in plain sight places Geo Mum came in for a more thorough look but after a while of nothing Geo Dad swooped in only to come up empty handed too. A muggle or two drove passed so we just bounced around and after spending a while searching everywhere came up with nothing

South Australian OZ Mega 2014 in Murray Bridge. A Twelve day trip to and from the mega. Plenty of caching along the way and near Murray bridge. A great time with lots of cachers all over the place to make for a very entertaining period.

I joined up with Sol de Lune for the lead up to the Mega and the mega itself. After a pretty good look around we had to give up. Thanks.

Albida

Looked for anythng obvious, but alas came up empty handed. Had a local stop and ask if I was looking for anything.....special....but when I said no, he decided I must be fine and headed off.

Wont be able to try again this time....so I will need to wait til another trip....thanks anyway.

Out in the barossa to get some caches.

Thank you for the cache HuntingChicken, this was number 5 for the day.

Loved the bridge. spotted it quickly, so simple, yet so easy to miss.

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.
