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.

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.

This cache needs checking
Way too many DNFS

no luck - A trip to Perth and the first thing on my mind was the caches.
Started with an Earthcache and moved on to the rest. Great place WA is, look forward to bringing the family back on a holiday.

Ditto previous DNF, could not see/feel after searching high & low.
Out enjoying sunshine on the deadly treadly with fellow cacher.
 
30-Apr-17
Had a look for the cache today but came up empty handed.
 
26-Apr-17
Couldn't find this one. Only seemed to be one obvious place and couldn't find it there... however, it's when you only see one obvious place that you often fail to find caches at all Smile
 
17-Apr-17
Even with the line by line hint I can't find anything Sad

@Deelitscher: so check failed Sad
 
04-Apr-17
If anybody could check whether my Coin Project Geogames 2012 is still in there, I'd be happy to know about it. If you could take it along to the next destination, I'd be more than happy! It's been "stuck" in Western Australia now for about 2 years and doesn't move much.

It's becoming a bit of an annual expedition of mine to head out on Good Friday to tackle some urban caches in the hope that the muggle activity might be a little reduced.

A reasonably quick find here after starting a systematic search in a deserted area today. Jotted down the name for the final.

Askalon&Sons I found your cache at 4:47pm, this was the 2nd of 6 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 3044. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

I'm looking forward to meeting other geocachers in Pinjarra at the 'WA GOES BIG IN 2016' event on the 4th - 5th June. Registrations now open.

Enjoying a nice lunchtime stroll and headed over this way to pick up a couple of Cache Wars hides on my way Smile Arrived at GZ and realised there was a muggle standing outside one of the nearby premises and I was directly in his line of sight. Decided to wait things out and to my delight it only took a couple of minutes before he ducked back inside. He was probably on a ciggie break! Otherwise I seemed to have the place to myself so I started the line by line check. Fingers got a bit grubby but thankfully it didn't take too long before I felt something familiar and out popped the cache Smile Picked up the character clue although I had to google him as it wasn't one I was familiar with! No problems cache-wise, it was soon replaced and I carried on my stroll back to the office Smile TFTC

By chance and circumstance, this is actually my first geocache find in Australia! I found myself in the area and decided to walk down that way and see if I could find it.
 
27-Nov-15
In Perth for the AC/DC concert and staying a few streets over to the East but since I got us here a bit earlier than check in time I manoeuvred us country folk around Perth streets (thanks to my Nuvi) but couldn't find any parking near another cache so went and parked car at accommodation and walked to some others and thought may as well get this one too since it's just down the road from the previous one Wink

The weather is really warm now, must be trapped heat amongst the city concrete but thankfully muggle found this one in the first place he put his hands Smile find 3 out of 4 for him Big Grin and only 1 for me Smile

Quick sign of log and code noted then a walk to the nearest Red Cat stop for a bus trip back to accommodation and hopefully time to get a quick swim in Smile

In Perth for ACDC tonight and staying in the city so a quick outing to grab some caches in this warm weather
A nice stroll from Cache Wars VI to this one and a quick find before two elderly muggles came out from nearby businesses
TFTC

Now time to 'Yellow Cat' it back to accommodation and enjoy the pool and spa

Grabbed this one in the evening - much easier to find then. A little dirty, but a fairly quick find.

Found this one at 20:00 while out and about at dinner time with my PiC. There was really only one (of several) places it could be and sure enough after trying a few spots, we finally had the stash in hand.

TNLNSL noted clue and a couple of our geocoins had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks Askalon&Sons.
 
08-Oct-15
Yes,

Roaming around and find this one. Thanks..

I've been here before but it's always been dark. Today I found a magnet and was about to walk away mark this down as a DNF but something drew me back and a bit more poking around produced a cache.

Thanks for the cache Askalon&Sons.

I found this Cache iny last day in Perth. Now it's going to Darwin.

16-Mar-15
Did a circuit before settling on probable location. Then as I was checking GPS I was asked was I still working. So I confessed that I was a cache hunter, and discovered this lady has a son in Tassie who is a cacher. So as she chatted on the phone I retrieved and signed the cache. TFTC
 
07-Mar-15
Found with Allykat2892
 
07-Mar-15
Not much to see here, was a good hiding spot though. GPS wanted me inside the gate but it was locked anyways.
 
04-Mar-15
Headed out this morning before the cricket to grab a few extra smilies and decided to find a few of my leftovers in the city. This one took a good search. Thought I knew exactly where it would be, but it wasn't there...then got muggled out for about 10 minutes and re-checked the first spot. TFTC
 
02-Feb-15
Found it during my short staing in Perth on my business trip. Thank for the cache.
 
25-Jan-15
Found on an early morning bike ride. Only took a minute or two. Was not in the first place I felt, but in the general area. Thanks for the cache.
 
16-Jan-15
Checking cache is still there.
 
11-Jan-15
At the moment I'm on a work and travel backpacking year through the world. Most of the time I'll spend in Australia and I'm trying to solve my 365 days of caching challenge during this trip. The chance of having a moving home zone should be takes, as it will make the challenge so much easier.

After the Kiwi's Brekkie Meet in WA (East Perth) I decided to cache my way back to the hostel.

I have no idea, why I couldn't find the box on my last visit.. I asked for help during the event this morning and got my idea confirmed.. One grab and I had it in my hand, must have been blind last time Smile

TFTC and greetings from Germany

Gates were locked at night and gps wanted me to go 10 m in
 
06-Dec-14
This cache really strikes back. But we had taken care that it would't be too bad! Smile
 
06-Dec-14
No muggles today. Therefore we could search without any interruptions. After 5 minutes we found the cache. Thanks to the owner.
 
19-Nov-14
I didn't have enough time to search for the cache cos I am meeting my friend at her work at 4pm so its DNF for me!
 
28-Oct-14
Even though I suspected where the Cache was hidden, it still took quite a while until it was in hand. Fortunately, it was very quiet this Tuesday afternoon and so I could log and return the Cache without problems.

Thanks for this Cache!

Found 2:35 pm, #2 of 10 (day), #692 (total)

We thought we had exhausted all possibilities after looking in every nook and cranny, but then the GPSr pointed somewhere slightly different and persistence yielded the cache.

15-Jul-14
Took a while to find and nearly gave up when we finally got it.
 
09-Jul-14
Been trying to knock this one off for a few months.
Its not exactly a busy spot here, but everytime I've got to GZ, there are always muggles around.
A lunchtime walk today prooved the trick. Cache quickly in hand and log signed. TFTC
 
08-Jul-14
After a day of mixed success, Geodaughter and I spent a good half-hour looking for this one, to no avail. We looked everywhere we could possibly think a cache would be hidden. Peered into a few para-legal spots. Even overturned a few bricks. (However, we did NOT poke about in the rat poison.) GPS couldn't settle, either due to the weather or the buildings, so we couldn't fixate on GZ.

No luck. Might try this one again some time in the future. Maybe. We might need a few more clues.
