As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. I'm archiving it to keep it 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 (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Hi every one. After being informed by a few of you I went to look for it this evening and could not find it myself. I think it has walked. I will try to put together a new one soon and let every one knw when it is back. Thanks for the heads up every one.

Also tryed this a couple more times sinice last time i logged DNF and have even taken another cacher out there who has found it before and could not find it this time. Have tried to contact Rath1357 via e-mail to see where they found it but they did not answer there e-mails. By the profile of Rath1357 I suspect they did it some time ago and just logged it on the 10/03 and infact the cache has been missing for a while.
 
29-Mar-12
Sorry but after a few attempts and even being told by 2 different previous finders where this one was, I still can't find it. What makes it even more frustrating is the recent find by Rath1357, so I am guessing it has moved from where it was placed. Sad

This cache is brilliant! Went there well before dinner so not many about apart from a chef having a break outside. He had a bit of a smirt on his face and we're sure he knew what we were up to. After forever he finally went inside and the family went nuts trying to find this cache. Geo-mum came up with the goods and like a flash we were gone. Great hide! Gave us all a bit of a giggle
 
One of a few picked up with The Hunta on an evening cache raid, before heading back home then down south for the weekend.

Cheers and Happy Hunting from Southern Cross Caching

Now that's one thing you must get use to in Whyalla. Though they tell me there is some white dust from the magnesite. Could Whyalla become a bit paler??
