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.

Found what appears to be the obvious answer to the hint but no package or anything nearby.
 
24-Jul-18
Also a DNF for me. Explored every hole in the tree and anything nearby. Good spot though, even if its popular with muggles.
 
20-Jul-18
Sadly DNF - I think our phone GPS suffered under the cover

Nice hiding place. But no log book or anything!

Searched everywhere but no luck.

I don’t think it’s there!!! A fellow geo cacher walked by and I obviously looked like a crazy hunting person. She showed me where it was and it isn’t there

In town for the week to visit the cousins and managed to get out and about and grab a few caches. This was the second. Had to wait for a dog-walking muggle to move on then made a quick find in between passing joggers.
Thanks to The Calumphing_Four for the hide Big Grin!

I was visiting Adelaide for a few days and making the most of caching in a new area. This was the next cache I walked towards on my caching walk. I was suprised to find this very quickly, though I am not sure what made me look at one object over another. GZ was quiet which helped with the search. TFTC!

My last day / morning in Adelaide today. I had a couple of hours to spare before I had to head to the airport and home. So I headed out and about to find a few caches. Took a little longer to find than it should have done as I fixated on one place to look instead of the right place to look. Fixed that and found the cache. TFTC, Biggles.
