No response from owner. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm 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 30 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.

The owner doesn't seem to be maintaining these caches. This one has not been found for a while and the string of DNFs continues to grow. The cache is not there anymore.

I really should look at logs *before* I go searching. Anyway I'll add my voice to the list of DNFs below. Looks like it's gone the same way as Sounds of Silence across the city which is now disabled.

The vegetation in this area has been severely culled. The cache has been DNFed many times. Can the owner please attend and confirm the cache is still in play, or can it please be archived?

Thanks.

Had a token look, but based on the number of recent DNFs, did not persevere. Think it might be gone.

Looked for it and then looked at the logs, and decided to quit.

Suspect this one is MIA.

No luck, though I was looking at night.

I was very disappointed not to find this geocache. I was looking for almost 10 minutes. There is just one obvious spot...

Greetings from Switzerland

Spent an hour.... But wasn't able to find it..! Ppl on bench were starring at me..

No

No luck today. Searched the only items that matched the clue, but nothing. Oh well.

Thanks Shael6636 for an interesting series. I missed being able to get #1 before it was archived, but with this I have achieved the rest. Arrived at the GZ after grabbing another nearby cache, muggles were hanging around, so I made a phone call and waited them out. I remember this part of town, the Japanese Resturant across the road does a great Tepanyaki. The muggles departed and the cache was quickly found with the use of the clue. Thanks again for a great city series.

Hunted over every conceivable hiding spot for a magnetic cache in the spot on the map. Particularly a certain power box. Found nothing

Ha! Very easy even with the contestants in the marathon lingering about.
TFTC

Where?

Number two for the day. Nice little hide in a part of the city not often visited by me these days.

First WA cache, staying around the corner while conferencing here in Perth. Quick find.

What a small park, its so small that its a wonder what you would do in it (apart from finding a geocache). The hint was a bit puzzling at first because the GPSr was pointing at a tall power related object. But when I was armed with the info that it was a mint tin I quickly had the cache in hand. Thanks for the Hunt

Nice quick find on the way to the bus - TFTC

A nice quick find just after dusk! A few more minutes, and I would have needed a torch! Thanks to Shael, from Canberra

Well we had a long list of jobs to do at home this weekend. Seeing as the weather was reportedly going to rain we snuck and did some caching yesterday, meaning the jobs had to happen today! Oh, we are rarely both free on Sunday, let's just go into the city and try a few quick caches, before we do the jobs! We didn't get home to start our jobs till after 2pm. Oops. Being Sunday, we took the car into the city. Well what should have been quick duck around the corner from the last cache, was 2 laps of the block. They have changed the direction of some of the city streets since we were last in town! Doh!! Quick find once we finally got here. TFTC Shael6636 & the robots

Easy early morning find on way to work, no muggles. TFTC

Got misdirected out of the hotel but managed to get near to this cache and make the grab! SL

TFTC!

Found it, after waiting out a few muggles. Thought the clue might be a little misleading. TFTC.

First cache find in the west - found a pair of men's dress shoes neatly placed in the bushes before I found the cache. TFTC

found long ago

woop woop another find for today

Got three of the five in this series but the other two will probably go un attemmpted as we were just rambling around Perth.

A fairly easy find on a quiet afternoon exploring Perth - TFTC

Like the previous logger, I had to wait for some smoking muggles to depart. Then, just after I made the grab, another muggle in an urban four wheel drive parked up facing GZ directly and sat for ages with his motor running before eventually buying his parking ticket and going off about his business.

Had to wait a while for some smoking muggles near GZ to get distracted before I could move in for the quick find, sign and return. TFTC, Biggles.

Another quick grab while having a break from work!

TFTC! Hope to get back to Perth soon and finish the series soon!

There were a lot of muggels so we had to wait for the right moment. The cache we found very soon.

Nice hide quick find. TFTF.

there was a man sleeping on the bench, so he didn't notice, what I'm doing

Gotcha

Have been here a few times but there are always so many muggles. Struck it lucky today with a quick find while out with Sokar. TFTC

Nice quick grab during a lunchtime walk. Lots of muggles passing so it had to be a quick grab then fill out the log on an adjacent seat.

On 27 April 2011

Very busy with muggles - didn't find it ...

Possibly the world's smallest park!

Hooray! Another find. Hint helped when gps was off.

Found it without any problem or muggle TFTC

Respect for the eclipse tin design!

Went straight to it... had it back in hiding within minutes. TFTC.

staying in the city on training, went for a walk TFTC

An interesting location. Cache wasn't found until the second, and probably closer, look at that particular spot.

Thanks for the cache Shael6636.

Didn't take too long to find this one this time. I had a go a few months back but I didn't have my GPS with me so I search in a number of places, none of them the correct one. This time the GPS got me quite close despited the buildings around it.
TFTC

After a Scout meet at F'Eddies, with a number of other Rovers (including Rover_Kimmi) we found this one easily. A new log book will need to go in soon.

TFTC

Del got it!

We laughed as muggles were walking past GZ and didn't notice a thing ! TFTC .. SL!

Finished up an amazing meal at Midori the teppan yaki restaurant across the road and popped over for a quick easy find.

Forgot the clue for this one so took a bit longer, but soon found it, TFTC - Steve (UK)

Yes it is a small park and we enjoyed the shapes. There are some new ones now and some old ones wont be there much longer.

Found it! With some help from Trumpkin-NZ, cheers mate,
Picked up iphone geocoin. TFTC

First ever cache in Australia and I did it without being attacked by killer spiders, drop bears or snakes - what an achievement!

Reperio at 1750. Stopped by here at probably one of the businiest times of day, and so was expecting to have to walk away from it. Arrived at GZ, and looked around, and spotted the cache. Did the telephone thing and sat down to make the retrieval, and it wasn't long beofre there was a break in muggle traffic, and the cache was in hand. Very colourful cache.

Gratias.

Easy find signed and left. Time for a new log it's full as.

Logging a find with Team Kriek from over a year ago. Nice location, well hidden. Had to try and avoid security guards and other muggles TFTC

An easy find once the security guards in the building opposite had finished their smoko. TFTC

Managed to get in and out with only a couple of tradies walking past.
TFTC

Very quick find, just had to wait for muggles
TFTH

Nicely hidden, just tricky enough but didn't take too long.

Cool beans. TFTC

Nice Easy find, lovely little shady place to hindfrom sun! Tftc

This is a good one just down the road from my office so I found it on my way to work one day. You feel a bit dodgy rummaging around with peak hour traffic and pedestrians staring at you! ATESPearce.

Saw the Cache in plain view but at had to wait an age for people using the nearby benches for "morning coffee" to leave!!! TFTC.

Repeat visit at an earlier hour when no Muggles were about - FTFC!

Muggels muggels all around. Recon I know where it is

Logged in really warm weather. The trees in the small park gave a well needed rest from the sun. TFTC

A top spot to be hanging out in the dark. Cool to be with the tough frog here so we could both make the find. Clear skies.

A sweet return visit found the cache right where it should be.

Quick find amongst some great buildings exhibiting the shapes in the cache name. TFTC

found with purzzzelbaum.

Last 1 4 the day - quiet sunday arvo. Tftc ?

Found late at night after a concert, without a GPS, cheers!

Plenty of Muggles but thanks for the cache.

This certainly is a small park and an interesting place to sit to watch people heading home. Thanks for a great downtown cache.
