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.

###**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.

Can the owner check to see if it’s still there??

Had a good look found a rock that looked promising but no cache

Have been here 3 times, unsure whether looking in the wrong places or whether it is lost with Vivendi112

needs a co check as no finders in 7 months and there looks to be a favourite spot with someone as there has been a camp fire very near gz. don't think the cache is there.

Found it!
Be careful of the ants and spiders
Apart from that awesome Cache!
Felt very adventurous with this one
 
Kids had fun climbing around trying to find this one. Clever hide. TFTC.
 
01-Jan-16
Okay, that's one of the more clever caches I've seen. The ants are really busy (they don't stop for holidays), and some very interesting red beetles I've not seen before. You don't realise how up and down naracoorte is until you come somewhere like this. TFTC and Happy New Year!
 
27-Dec-15
Headed out on a caching adventure to and around Naracoorte today with TT016.
Drove up the hill then walked up the hill. Very clever hide...love it. TFTC Biggo

Taking the geo kids caching during the school holidays, while towing a 24 foot caravan. We'll take every opportunity to grab a cache, so unhitched and came up to this nice little lookout. Geokids where only too happy to do the climbing to grab this for signing.
Thanks Biggo for bring us here.

A favourite point for this cleverly colored container and a great view of the town. Our last Naracoorte find before travelling homeward: Naracoorte SA to St Leonards Vic multiple breaks and lots of smilies in 12 hours.

Our thanks to Biggo for bringing us here.

Devastated - could not find it despite searching for some time!

Stopped here for a view from the lookout. Took us a little while to find, but got there in the end.

Cheers and thanks for the cache

Great hide!!!
 
07-Jun-15
Found with Patrick 22 , Russell and Catherine . Went with the night suggestion - nice view of Naracoorte's lights but did add a difficulty level to search! Clever container. TFTC
 
06-Jun-15
Proved quite challenging this one! The map I had didn't show that Carthy's Rd runs off Sandstone Ave, so ended up sending Megan63 up some very rough track east of GZ. We got within 100m before Megan63 decided it was too rough. After a lot of fussing around with maps on phones, we found our way to GZ. Clambered up and down eventually found the cache after a long search. Camo was very clever! TFTC

We loved the container, very clever. We headed up in the day time as we were in town for an appointment and needed to be back home by dark. SL TFTC
 
18-Oct-14
With the local show on today it seemed everywhere we cached we were entertained by the music from the side show alley. Even here.
After a short but hot uphill clamber this cache was soon spotted.
A favourite point for not taking the easy way out with this container but making your own. Well done and thanks.

05-Oct-14
In Naracoorte with Genghicat for BLE2 & grabbing caches in the area

********************************

Think Genghicat was playing "damsel in distress" with this one. Couldnt find it, but as soon as I went to help....he spied it lol

Like others we did the rough track first & the better one out

TFTC
 
05-Oct-14
Like others we did the "hard" way in and the easy way out. To be fair, I don't think we would have easily found the easy way in a hurry as the entrance to the road wasn't obvious.

Couldn't immediately find the cache, so Donnazev came over to help. But wouldn't you know it? As soon as she did, I spotted the cache. I still think she suspects a ploy to get her to come over.

TFTC.

Camped at Naracoorte and headed out doing some local sightseeing.

So much history in this area with the old buildings, churches, and railway lines

Better weather today than yesterday but still quite a chilly breeze.

Lovely spot and a great clever cache, but managed to snag a quick find.

Geoson has a knack for finding these little ones. What would have taken me a while, he ran straight to it. Tftc and the view
 
23-Apr-14
Very clever. Find by geo cousin
 
No a good road to take a rental car on. A 4x4 would have been much better.

I flew into Melbourne on Sunday, rented a vehicle and am driving to Oz Mega in Murray Bridge. Of course I am trying to find some caches along the way.

Today, Wednesday, is is my third day of caching in Australia. This is my first caching trip south of the Equator, so I am finally getting some S's to go with all my N's. And this is my first caching trip east of the Prime Meridian, so I am finally getting some E's to go with all my W's. (My trips to Europe and Asia were before I took up geocaching.) Thanks for the cache. This cache is my find number four (4) for the day, and find number nineteen thousand three hundred ninety nine (19399) overall.

May all your days bring you more smiles Smile than frowns Sad. May your year 2014 be better than your year 2013 was.

Cache on!

Out and about with Tassie Trekkers doing the Naracoorte caches as we head to the Oz Mega at Murray Bridge. A clever hide and a quick find. TFTC.

Found on our "Making Memories" Tour of Mainland Australia.

Heading to the OZ Mega with whitewebbs picking up caches on the way. Staying a couple of days in Naracoorte and this was 1 of the caches we found. Clever hide. TFTC

# 7987 Found on the SA leg of our S.K.I.D.R.O. adventure,

Not many muggles around and a reasonably quick find on most of them.
A nice 4wd track and a top hide, plus a great view as well.
Thanks for the cache Biggo,

Well I think we found it. A long green tube with wire attached laying on the ground with no lid and no contents. Had a look around and couldn't seen anything that might have been in it. Needs maintenance. Was with Nara Joey.

The geomobile was going to Naracoorte for a service. I decided I would turn the journey in a caching day. Aussie M&M were available so came along for the caching / ride. A slight detour into Victoria on the way home and fun day was had by all.

One last one in Naracoorte before we take the long way home. Bit of a climb but I got there and got the find in the end. Smile Took the easy way back down. Thanks Biggo Big Grin
