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.

From http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70

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.

Hasn't been found in over 2 years and no response to maintenance request. Needs to be archived to stop it showing up in feeds and open the area up for others.

ALmost 2 years since the last find, can't believe theres only been 1 DNF after mine.
Might need checking up on though so people start coming to look for it again instead of looking at the logs and giving it a miss

I was unable to get to the gz due a fence and gate that looked freshly installed.

Hmm didn't find this cache today unfortunately Not sure if I was just looking in the wrong spot too close to the tree..... as I didnt widen my search too far. Thanks anyway I loved the tree very intriguing that it grew this way!

Replced with a mint tin so others can enjoy the unique tree as i did and get their smiley too. Thanks for showing us this natural wonder.

Replaced with a mint tin at tree

Like a few before us we didn't find this one after quite a bit of searching. With all the leaf litter around it may well be all here but some confirmation from the CO would be good. Thanks for bringing us here because it really is a worthy spot for a cache.

After so many DNF's on this one a check by the owners would be appreciated. Thanks. It is a great location and worthy of a cache replacement!

We have to add our names to the list of DNF's. A wonderful tree which is surviving very well unlike the cache it seems.

no joy today looked in every nook and cranny then looked again took a second look on the way back to geocar to good foe us eyes painted on today

Found the tree but no container on sight

found a few months ago but have changed apps so re logging. Thank you

What an unusual tree! We were in the right place, but no luck with locating GC. We did however spot a pair of shingle back lizards in one of the wedges.

Replacing Cache small plastic micro out with MGROCKS & juculu

Helped replace this one for The Lucas'

TFTC good walk

A few people now haven't found it this might need a bit of mantenance

Had a very good look with Gypsyroselee but no luck.... Maybe needs a visit from the owner? I wonder if the previous find was mis-logged as there have been lots of DNFs here....

Found, while visiting the Riverina.

Looked and looked but could not find

I think it's gone...

A nice cache to get back into the game with. Thanks

Good one

Really is a fascinating location, sat around for a while enjoying the area. TFTC

Tftc. Awesome tree

Added new log book

Fascinating tree. Found with o'cholio. TFTC and bringing us to this remarkable oddity.

Nice quick find
Tftc

That is definitely a freaky tree, and quite unique. Don't think we've ever seen another one like it. Good spot. TFTC.

Nice easy find. Nearly got busted by a muggle. TFTC

Navigated our way to this one and came pretty close to GZ - Our search was hurried due to a barking dog over the fence - had to duck down so we werent seen by the occupants and we were out of there. Thanks for the hunt. TNLN SL

Nice quick find in fading light. TFTC

#1127 @ 5.30pm. We chose a lovely autumns day to go acaching in Wagga and it was fast disappearing on us. Not wanting to have a late night we decided to do a couple more before heading home to Albury. We have seen some amazing places where trees are able to grow, particularly in Central Aust, so this example was reminiscent of that. TNLNSL TFTC The Lucas'

What an interesting tree indeed. Nice short walk and quick find.

What an amazing piece of nature! Great little hide. Thanks for getting me up here, the GeoPuppies loved the walk!

TFTC!

What an interesting cache completed, seen this before, but not for a while. TFTC / TFTH / SL

Straight forward to find this one. Muggle friend found it first - and I think he is hooked.

Interesting tree growing between the two rocks. Easy find. TFTC

Loved the tree, very cool. My GPS hadn't settled yet but I knew exactly what I was looking at. TFTC

The name gave it away. Log a bit wet. TFTC

Found during an afternoon caching run through the Wagga and Junee area.

No luck today. Was a nice bike ride up the hill though.

Shall try again next weekend.

[Back in the saddle after my back seized up yesterday.] Had to look twice in the crevice before it dawned on me...

Amazing what nature can do when it just wants be where it wants to be. Great tree! The first of 3 in this nice area. There are many ways into this spot either on foot or as we found we were lucky enough to drive up part of the hill. SL TNLN T4TC

A nice quick find this morning while out with the geodogs. I have been to this one before and had no luck finding it. I think I'll put that down to inexperience

Can see why you named this cache wedge tree...
Nice spot, went on to do the other 2 nearby cached just on sunset. Thanks.

Agreed, thought it was a good spot for a cache and we (Nifares and I) had fun walking along looking for the 3 caches in the area...

Found this one at the end of 3 on this hill, was a fantastic walk up, around and down.. parked very close to this one but did it at the end of the walk. Soon had cache in hand. Was a great finish to a great walk. TFTC

Nice spot.Found quickly SL TN LN & Took Off
TFTC.

Tftc very interesting had a good walk

Yeah, this was a wierd looking tree. Very persistant to be able to get through what he's got through.... Bit of a look around had the cache in hand soon enough. Thanks for the hide.

It's amazing what nature is capable of.

A nice quick find at an interesting spot. I never cease to be amazed at the power of nature over its surroundings - it is not just humans who bend and shape the world, we just do it faster. Thanks for the cache The Lucas'

Was it the chicken or the egg. I vote for the egg. Check the pic and you can vote too. Clear skies from TeamAstro.

Ditto with Gum-Ako, seen another like it in WA and that time the tree found water and created a fresh water spring,Life creates its own opportunities.tftc

Great spot! Trees are amazing things to be able to split rocks much harder and stronger than they are! I wish i'd taken a photo! Thanks for bringing us to this spot.

Loved the tree.

Found while still in Wagga after Oz Mega (still glowing with all the memories)
Spotted the tree while following GPS on th way to Paradise - had planned to check it out and maybe place a cache, until we found that all was already in hand
Loved the spot and symbolism

Mega 10. Last for my Wagga trip. I actually almost forgot to go, but on my fourth visit I actually found it this time. Thanks.

How magic nature is and how magnificent is this Ghost Gum! We love the philosophical thought in Ian & Penny’s log. Found in company with Ian & Penny on a quiet days caching after the OZ MEGGA Event. Thanks for bringing us to this site.

A very easy find. Obviously we aren't the only ones to find this in the past few days. tftc

Nice little cache to pick up. TFTC SL

4th find of the day, and 2338th total find at 12:05.

Well the Mega event is over, but we're still here. We are having a quiet caching day with Phetlern before they have to head off on their travels.

Isn't nature wonderful, especially how a little seed can grow to become a tree that splits a rock in two. So when you are next 'between a rock and a hard place' remember you CAN slowly overcome the rock.

Took: Nothing
Left: Screwdriver
Thanks The Lucas' for the cache

Ian and Penny

I don't wanna walk up the hill shouts the 6yo, haven't told him there is 2 more caches yet!

Visiting for Oz Mega Wagga Wagga from Brisbane and hunting with my regular caching buddy Gunnie69. Thanks for sharing your great city, terrific caches and fabulous hospitality with us. Great to have the opportunity to run in to so many fellow cachers at so many GZs in and around Wagga Wagga!

This is one very tenacious tree. A great example of the power of nature. [^]

Thanks for showing me this interesting feature The Lucas' . Cheers, svn07

It really is a wedge tree.
TFTC, found while in Waga for the Oz-mega

Found over the weekend with JezzzaXtreme and rubai.

Glancing at the name I thought we'd see a cool forked tree or something, but wow, quite unexpected and cool.
Thanks!

Great little cache, our kids made the find and were very impressed!

The hard part was finding a way into the area. The best part was the tree and the rock. TheMiniGatherer is refering to this tree as "The Perfect Tree". Thanks The Lucas'.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Thank you for taking us to this unique tree durning our Oz Mega adventure. Just like the Aussie spirit to thrive in impossible circumstances.

Quite remarkable how something so strong can be overcome like that... Very impressive and a great spot to put a cache. Convenient how GZ doubles as a resting place to sign the log too... Found this morning with Svn07.

Cheers The Lucas.

Oz Mega Wagga Wagga Trip 2010 with JezzzaXtreme and linFox, Day 3
#418: A very interesting tree

Edit: Opps, i logged it as a DNF

Found over the OZ MEGA weekend, with rubai and linFox

Certainly a very crazy tree indeed, though I think the palm tree up the hill tops it.We parked next to the van of a NZ team and walked up to this one, finding it before continuing on.

Thanks, Jezzza Xtreme.

With Alchemy2, Varuna, Everlastings. Our day we had walked up the hill more and give us good excrise.. TFTC

This is a sight that i have never seen before. UNREAL

Varuna found the cache, with alchemy2 and crank1. SL. Thanks The Lucas'

Thanks for showing it to us.

This was cache # 14 of 25 for the day in the company of acts2youthgroup on day three of our Oz Mega event.
We wandered down to this one from Paradise Views.
It's amazing how a tree can grow here.
Thanks to The Lucas' for the cache.

Found while attending OzMega in the company of sully1, smegheads and bogonhazy. A kiwi contingent also met at GZ. TFTC

Found with tofka,ADV,Redinguana and Moneydork.TFTC.

Found with Moneydork, Reduguana, Tofska, and Pohutukawa. Out and about finding some caches during our stay at the Mega event.
Really amazing, enjoyed the visit.

Awesome power of trees!. T4TC, M@

Met some muggles here, and whilst they were discussing this cache not being here, I went right up and found it Thanks to the anonymous benefactor that replaced the container. Cheers Gav [5328]

A very cool rock and tree. TFTC

Found during the amazing OzMega event in the company of Micaparamedic, smegheads, and Sully1.
My thanks to TheLucas for re-placing this cache.
It certainly is an impressively strong tree, thanks for showing us this spot.

This was cache # 15 of 27 for the day in the company of hipressure on day three of our Oz Mega event trip. We walked across from Paradise view to this one, it sure is an amazing tree. My thanks to The Lucas' for the cache.

Found by Bob at 1730

I was having a bit of a tour of Wagga and its suburbs this afternoon and just doing "caches of opportunity". I'd worked my way into the southern suburbs by now and this one looked interesting so I headed there. After a short walk up the hill, I decided I didn't need my GPSr as the cache name told me all I needed to know about where to look. The container was a nice, quick find and, as I was replacing it, its next visitor arrived in the form of Mr Router.

TNLN

Thanks again Lucas' - it certainly is a remarkable sight and I'm really glad you chose to mark it with a cache.

Found on our big caching day in Wagga Wagga for Oz Megga.
