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 %d% 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.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

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 page and post a 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.

I went over the whole structure above and below and the ground surrounding spent over an hour looking

Looked for over an hour checked the whole structure and the ground around it with over 15 dnfs and 3 maintenance logs that have been ignored I think its time I gets archived to save people looking for something that's gone and getting dnfs

Looked for a long time couldn't find hide disappointed

Gave it a good going over and no luck for us today

Good hiding spot . Needs new paper roll

Need more paper . No room for logs

Now I have to admit that we only gave this one a quick search due to the number of other reported DNFs, but it is not apparent on that quick look.

This one has been missing in action for a while now and needs to be either replaced or Archived.

Well - laid on back - looked all around right at GZ - over under etc - no sign of any receptacle. Alas and Alac! Maybe gone?! RoamingParsons from Bargara, near Bundaberg.

Looked and looked but didn't find

Couldn't find it :/ looked really hard but no luck... maybe its been dropped or muggled? Maybe it needs to be looked at and replaced?

Had a good look.. but no luck..

I reckon it has gone.

Please check this one...missing for some time.

I will try and check this one soon for Orange Angels . I replaced this several years ago for the owners so will see if it needs doing again.

Searched a fair bit - wonder if it's fallen away?

We could not find it

Had a good look

Had a look but couldn't see it anywhere.

Spent quite a bit of time hunting for this one, but wasn't able to find it. In the end I got distracted and went and took some photos of pelicans Cheers Gav

Scoured the bridge DNF

First night time cache. Could have been very tricky - just got lucky. Good first day of our coffin bay holiday with team Affy. TFTC

Nice little hide

First Cache for Coffin Bay. Nice easy find adjacent to the caravan park, which is where we stayed. TNLN TFTC. Bommy

A tricky one to find. TFTC

Staying nearby on Christmas holidays, found without the aid of the GPS, so sure were we of the location. A relatively easy find. Our 25th find which was my target beyond which we can start our own caching.

Great day out fishing today with GT charters from Coffin Bay including a 6kg snapper and plenty of Nanagai and KG whiting. Mrs CC spent hours cleaning and filleting all the fish in sight of this cache.

Great little hide.

Quite close to where we were staying. Took a bit of fiddling around to retrieve it but soon had it in hand. Signed log. Thanks Orange Angels

Our First find in coffins

Found this by one of our fave places to sit and have lunch together and watch the birds and fish

Hands and knees job to find this nanno.

Thanks for the clues.tricky, but found it

Last day for the cache - kim rose help me to retrieved the containter for me. Signed the log. Thanks Orange Angels.

Thought this one should have been called Billy Goats Gruff
On bended knee we retrieved this little treat

An easy find out walking the Oyster Trail with the x-Trailers.

Found at 1.00pm GAFF1. Not only was this a significant hide for you, but it was a also a significant find for us as it was the cache that equaled our friend Dak's find count of 5,546 before he died.
He would have loved this cache with the great scenery and the tricky method of the hide - not too difficult that you had to spend ages searching and excellent co-ords.
Thanks Orange Angels.

We pulled up and there were quite a few vehicles around but surprisingly no muggles at gz. After a quick search we soon found where your anniversary cache was located and added our name to the log. Happy Anniversary, we hope to around when you hide one for your diamond
Thanks Orange Angels for the cache

Another quickie near caravan park TFTH

A tricky little micro near a handy campground. Stayed a while watching the pelicans and other sea birds competing for lunch. TFTC

A nice micro to find- GeoDog was the perfect distraction. Great spot. TFTH

Very clever hide, quickly found and returned, TFTHSL

Had intended camping in the national park,but it was full! So we opted for the caravan park, and a night raid on a few caches. TFTC

Was not far from this cache as we were staying the caravan park.

We tried on the 1st of Jan 2011 and couldnt find it. Mind you the only bridge I knew of (30 years ago) was up near the Boat Ramp (so who needs GPS settings, just go to where you remember the bridge is and believe you are RIGHT??) searched "our" bridge for hours) (C'mon this was our first cache) So anyway after another 1+ km of walking where the GPS pointed to the correct location we bombed out and gave up (a little bridge... what could be hard about that.) Came back next day re-clued up & found it. What a wonderful experience after coming 3000 km back to Coffins with kids.
Used to hang out here as a kid.

At first I didn't think I could find it but I let the fingers do some walking and found it more by accident. One day I am going to get bitten by doing this whilst cacheing.
Cheers from the Posspet Boys

bitsmissan have given up no more time left

Found eventually we were looking for the old cache and had to phone a friend to get us back on the correct track. Nice views.

A great find took a little while because of muggles passing by.
Thanks.

Found by Mary & David at 1650. Delighted to be back here 3 years after our first visit. Mary looking forward to half a dozen you-know-what soon. Such a cold day after the lovely sunshine yesterday. Congratulations on your anniversary- nearly 39 for us. Took a while to locate the cache. Well hidden. Our thanks once more to Orange Angels.

We don't usually have too much trouble finding micros on bridges this small. It certainly rounds down the options with such a small target object. Couldn't spot it from above, so resorted to the next best thing.

This little town has some really well placed caches, and a good quantity of hides. Unlike Lincoln, where there's so many caches we just don't know where to start, this town has a good balance.

Thanks Orange Angels.

Found this on our visit to Coffin Bay, Took a while, and its a really good hide too. Nearly gave up when cincol spotted the goods

Did this one along with cslyoda on a trip south from Whyalla to Coffin Bay. Great trip with a few caches found enroute - and some DNF's to boot!

This was our 3876th overall find.

Found at 10:46 AM. We have just had out 10 year anniversary, I wouldn't even have a clue what it is (Shell probably does) but luckily I can find caches and this one was found with a minimum of fuss.

Thanks Orange Angels for the cache.

good lil spot, had fun TFTC SL

I found this one a while ago. Local friends said that the bridges rails itself were replaced, the cause of the cache going missing.

TFTC

Granny found it, but the grandies didn't like the rain .

With permission of Orange Angels and a few phone calls have replaced this cache with a micro. Hopefully it does not get lost again.

Found during our trip to Port Lincoln. TFTC.

Thanks for replacing the cache. Went to have a look just before Christmas as we were staying in the caravan park for a week. No luck. Then went back again on the night before we left just to check & Bingo there it was. Thanks to the BLT burger team for helping with the find.

Went looking on dusk which made it a little more difficult to find. A long stick close by and a quick dash back with a torch came in very handy!

No sign of a cache here on Christmas Day or on New Years Eve. But suddenly a micro appeared on New Years Day thanks to the scratchings of TheBLTBurger! I'm sure we looked there before.

Went for a drive to check this one out it has gone so we replaced it same co ords but in a different place

Yes, there is a brand new bridge, couldn't find the cache.

New bridge in place so could not find.

Went for a drive and thought i'd check ur cache as a new bridge is there and no cache is there. May need to check it out and replace it.

I knew these types of hides. I knew where to look. Found just like that. The ways nano's should be found if their existence is to be justified.

Clear skies from TeamAstro and our thanx to the Orange Angels once more.

Found it immediately! Must have been standing in the right position.

TFTC

This was the first find on our return trip to Coffin Bay. The Oyster walk is a lovely place to stroll. Now even better with a cache!
Thanks to Orange and Angels

Found at 10:10am. A real micro!!!

After visiting the antique shop at wangary we came into coffins. Knew where this would be, but didnt have the time to really examine it carefully. My sister and brother in law own the nearby oyster lease (among many) As kids we had great times at our shack down in kellidie bay; fishing, boating ,roaming the scrub etc. Often come here for afternoon tea, and will check it out better when we have a little more time.

With a cry of "aaaahhhhh" not another micro from Delta, we set out to find the cache, I must admit it was a good hide and I can see why you used a micro.

signed the log

nice cache nifty spot TFTC
HAPPY CACHING TRAVEL SAFELY

this date may be wrong but we have done it, cleaning out my garmin i discovered a few that i had not logged

Easy find, not before I decided to lie down in the wet grass before finding the true location
TFTC

FOUND IT SO EASY WENT 2 IT TFTC

Mother's day why not take mum cacheing, in a round about way. Lunch first then a look around and a short stop to let the kids play. No room for swaps. Thanks Orange Angels
TNLNSL

So many places to look.
I was thinking it may take days of searching this structure for a nano, but the cache gods must have been shining on me (ok so it was only the sun poking through the clouds) as I found it easier than expected.
Signed scroll then cursed as I tried to wind it up tight enough to fit back in the cache.
Thanks Orange Angels.

Logged from my phone using the Geocache Navigator by Trimble. OK I admit it couldn't find this one YET. Taking back cache sniffer children that will help.Good one Orange Angels!!!!
