I cannot see any information that indicates the CO has taken steps to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement.

Therefore the cache is being Archived to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

**Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived.**

This is explained in the Help Center article [here](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56).

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

Looked high and low!!

DNF!

We searched around for a while but no luck

I walked round and round looked high and low but could not find it. It must be beautifully camouflaged and very small. A perfect location. I will be back for another try!

No luck with this one today. Had a pretty good search around though. .

Apologies for the late log ... life interrupted my logging. I hate it when that happens!

Mrs Gizmo escaped for a two day caching trip to Port Augusta with Dr Owl and CPwanderer.

Day 2 and we packed up our gear and headed off to find a few more caches before breakfast.

Mostly dry this morning. Took a bit of time to find the sneaky hide. Doctor Owl spotted it eventually. A favourite for the journey and the location.

TFTC polarbear68!

We walked around ... we walked in .... then Doctor Owl made the discovery!! Thanks for the hide!!

CPWanderer, Gizmo's Gang and Owl were heading home after an excellent adventure, but not before a few more caches. This was a pleasant drive, which the Owlmobile handled well. No wet feet this time, but it took a while to find the cache.

Wet wet wet good cache

Hi there polarbear68.

We found your cache **"Harrys STASH"** at 11:11:00 AM today. (This makes our find count 15920).

We cached between Port Augusta and Mangrove Point today. On our trek we found a wide variety of container types. & ended up finding 7 caches with 0 DNF's.

Thanks for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

Round and round we went and then BIngo! TFTC

Found after sunset with a torch after starting caching from Blanche Harbour back to Pt Augusta. Log was sopping wet and fell to pieces. Have replaced with a new log inside a plastic bag, should keep it dry. Thanks for the hide polarbear68.

Found it could not sign to wet, needs container & log

Got it, wet inside could not sign

GoodLook very, very badly wanted to attend a special event, so who was I to tell her she was going overboard with geocaching [?]
Instead we jumped into Harry on Friday for 2 days of adventure, accompanied by Laighside Legends, in Whyalla where fishingmad was holding an event on Saturday to christen his new boat..... 6km out in the gulf[^]
We had a blast and it was huge fun showing GoodLook around parts of Whyalla that she hadn't seen before I think her logs say it all!
Today was a day of 3 DNFs and 30 finds

Unless mentioned otherwise, please know that your cache and log book was in good condition.

No wet feet for us today but we did find Harry's Stash and both Harry and his driver enjoyed the journey in..... although apparently LL didn't
Maybe he needs to come out with me more often to desensitise himself!

Found It!
A nice little place and a great spot for a cache! Thankfully we came at low tide! Locus cache did take the track down here a little too fast though...
TFTC

Harry the 4WD LOVED driving out to Harry's STASH

The loud and lovely Locus Cache [:X], the very clever Laighside Legends and myself drove to Whyalla in Harry with the aim of this weekend being: to find a few caches, and attend the 5T boating/fishing & caching event.....AWESOME!! [^]

There was fun, laughter , silliness [:o)], tense moments, some creative driving (on road, off-road, dirt, sand, mud, water, tackling what could be described as a very steep and narrow bmx track...yep you heard me!) , breath holding , kindness [:X], tight time schedules, ladder climbing, feet getting wet, dolphins, a boat, fish, nanos, ammos, sistema of all sizes and a number of mint tins. Surprisingly few DNFs. And LOTS of other mad crazy conversations and adventures. Gotta love caching and all of the fun it can be!! [:o)] [^]

Thanks for the cache polarbear68

12429 caches found

Out caching with The Off Roaders, have a break from our walking for a couple of days, thought we would grab a couple wile we were here. Walking around Australia for Porstate and Breast Cancers

took : nothing
left : nothing

Thanks for the cache polarbear68

We have returned from Canada to discover a few more Australian caches! What a great way to explore the Land Down Under" ...
Spent the night at this delightful spot. Love the peace and quiet out here.
Thanks for placing this one polarbear68!

I checked the tide charts. All good.

The 4bee splashed through the puddles at the first right from the red flag. The views here are amazing - the day was good and the wind was refreshing. I sucked up the fresh oxygen and the cache. Great spot.

Thanks to polarbear68 and clear skies from TeamAstro. [^]

Bit tricky at high tide

Found it. Thanks. Beautiful sunny day and top view

Found on a geo trip to Whyalla, Port Augusta, Iron Baron, Kimba and other places with The White Dog Gang and Team Waldron. A great few days with lots of interesting caches. TFTC.

On a 3 day caching expedition to Whyall and beyond with Trail06 and The White Dog Gang.

All log books signed TW, T6 and TWDG.

We started in Adelaide went to Whyalla, Pt Lowy and Port Bonython, Iron Knob and Iron Baron, Kimba.

Apologies for the generic logs.

Low tide made an easy retrieve.

TFTC

Mogro

Oops !!
Wrong time of the tide to find this one without getting wet
Nice spot though [^]

So close, yet so far away ....

Found during a trip to Pt Augusta
Nice to visit some places that I frequented during my childhood
many, many memories
Quick find, nice spot, cool cache
TFTH polarbear68

Didn't find thios one in the time we allowed.

Tide was in, so my luck was out.

a lovely trip deb and i came for a look around and grab a few caches loved the weather and even found a bit of mud
Lucky the tide was right and a cache was found with dry feet.

Had no idea on the tide so took pot luck and was fortunate enough to have the tide out just enough, found after a short search, two rotations of GZ before we spotted it, log slightly damp but still able to scribe TFTC

Found it

Our very first attempt and got a good result, this is going to be the start of fun times to come. Nice spot and nice views,

Found it on 26 Nov 2012

Bowz2 and Billy87 undertaking a lazy days caching round town to get some still needing to be found. Easy find
Luckily we Got the tide right without trying
Recent rains required a visit to the car wash after slipping into and out of here

Quick find on way back from work. Worried about getting close to location, but veasy enough. Nice hide.

Fluked my drive past with a suitable tide. Took a bit to find until the muggle niece spotted it. A great location again on an awesome day. TFTC

An awesome wee hide - well pulled off.

Arrived just on dusk but no luck for me today,
Looks like I'll be back

Cheers and Happy Hunting,
Southern Cross Caching

Headed on out to do a couple of caches along Shack Rd. This was our second for the day. What a nice little spot. GeoSon had a great time looking at the shells and wandering around the pools of water. Thanks for bringing us out here polarbear68. SL TFTC

Last time I came here the tide was in and it was a 5m swim to the cache. This visit the water was about 500m beyond the tree. Geez I could have just about walked to Port Patterson. The cache was found after a brief search. Thanks for the fun. Love this spot. The gold coast of South Australia.

Have passed through P A several times and each time caching has taken us away from the tourist haunts and so it was with Harrys STASH.
Thanks polarbear68

Epic failure. I arrived at a high high tide pushed up by a strong southerly. There was a 1ft swell rolling in from the fetch across the gulf. It was wet stuff 10m from GZ. Doh. Damn. Double damn. Should be ok, It is a shell grit beach. Stripped off to jocks and started wading. Got to 2m from GZ. Then disaster. Rocks. The evil nemesis of bare feet. Aggghhh.... Where was my cojones you ask. Heading up into my abdomen with the cool water. Never mind we will return.

First for the day on a short geo road trip. Man fishing in exact spot, wondering if it was Harry.

Camped only a few hundred metres away so this was our first find for the day. Suffered a bit of cache blindness at first. Thanks.

This cache is quite clever, loved the clue TFTH

A fishing muggle was there when we first arrived after an interesting drive through a swarm of locusts! Had to leave and come back later. Had the beach to ourselves.Great hint! TFTC

On a wet weekend the track was really muddy but still made it in. Took a bit longer to find the cache than should have but it was there. TFTC Cheers from the Posspet Boys

Tftc - cool spot blustery wind made it more challenging

A find a night after work.
A very pretty spot to visit and the tide was out which was a bonus.
Thanks for a lovely little cache.

No wet feet today!

Thanks

Got to this one at the right time of day and after a bit of a search we spotted what we had come to find. Nice scenery too. thanks polarbear68

Ended up taking the turn after the flag but was still fine even tho there had been a fair bit of rain over the weekend. Little bit muddy but the Geo ute (2wd) made it through.
Did a few laps of GZ before spotting easily.
TFTC!

Found heading west as part of the Sunny Side up caper. TFTC

The twenty second find on our Sunny Side Up caching tour. A few pre event caches to make the long journey to Googs a little more interesting.

Quickly found and we were soon on our way again.

TNLNSL

Harry Hilux, loved Harrys stash.

We had a hunt around, but came up trumps

cheers and thanks for the cache

We had a small convoy of cachers heading towards Googs Track grabbing some caches along the way.

We were about to give up on this one and there is was. TFTC.

Found quickly, helps when you read the hint. Set off and didn't look at time tides OOPS!!! Lucky tide was out. Road in muddy in places. We had fun. We sank the 4wd in seaweed had to take a detour on route out. All adds to the experience of caching. TFTC. SL.

Found when on an afternoon out. Cache is in good condition, no worries with that one!!

Cheers!!

Although there has been a bit of rain recently, the track was OK.
We were quite glad that the tide was out or it could have got a bit tricky on such a cold day.
Beautiful spot, thanks for showing it to us.
Cheers & happy caching.

Dropped in Big Jimmy TB, waypoint use only...

FTF [^]...Current dirt track impassable due to recent rains, got a shower of rain too, whilst locating Harrys Stash. We found a track south of Harry stash, and considered this a better option to approach GZ... Nice little area, protected from the western winds. Did not have time to fish.. TFTHSL....
