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.
I contacted owner over a month ago and we came to an arrangement for me to replace the cache which I did within 48 hours.
Cache has still not been activated, therefore on Monday 24th Sept on the way to work I shall be removing the replacement I provided.
If listing is enabled before then, I shall not take the cache home.
Due to lack of interest I think this should be archived and open the area up to other cachers.

Cache replaced this morning on behalf of the owner. Cache is now ready to be activated.
Contacted Treehorse and will check this out and replace the cache if it is missing. Have done this myself and with a few others.
Hope to have it up and running by the 16th August.

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.
Was there after dark & there is about a foot of new mulch. Gunna be difficult now.
Found this one today on the way home from a netball win at Etsa Park! Woo! Go Flinders Uni! Very busy little spot here on a Saturday afternoon! TFTC TNLNSL!
My first cache as the cacheaholic im so stoked to have my own profile. Did this one after competing at santos stadium, finally made it. TFTC!!!
Found with the ford st clair clan and the cacheaholic, geonephews first find using his new name after he finished competing at santos stadium!
Looking through the map this morning for some caches (15/7/12) I noticed this cache was still on my list...
I remembered doing this as I busted my calf muscle that morning, So I checked my Geocaching Journal and I was right I had logged it as a find.. but must of forgotten as I was in so much pain. I remember it was under the bush near the light.. and the log was a little damp but was able to put my stamp in..
Thanks for the cache Treehorse.. sorry its late, sad it is missing now (15/7/12)

Really early Sunday morning. That is the best time to park, had the whole carpark to myself and therefore an easy find
Thanks treehorse
Thanks treehorse
Did not find yesterday on way to work as the co-ords put me in the middle of the Perry Engineering sculpture, ran out of time.
Checked logs last night and discovered how far of the co-ords are.
New search this morning in the correct area had a find in less than 2 minutes.

At night no muggles just a few cars passing. Found cache replaced the container as the old one was split. Thanks for the cache treehorse
Found it with vj187. Our readings sent us to another area close by but we quickly found it. The container is quite broken and fragile. TFTC
An easy find.
Container is cracked ... so will raise a maintenance note about this.
SL. Left small ball.

Found easily enough, I had no container or I would have done a bit of fellow geocacher maintenance,tftc
Easy to find a park at this hour of the morning, but not so easy finding the cache! Found it eventually 9m from listed GZ.
I marked the spot on gps for a 100 average and a proximity of 3.5 to give the coords I have listed, which hopefully are better.
Since so many have said the coords are off, maybe they need to be checked, as it is not a good look if we trash those plants looking for the cache

Had given up on finding this cache. Once decided to leave a quick rush into the garden and a jump around did the trick as jumped right on the cache
A lot of time spent at this one and once we had given up a member of The Olive Stones jumped around in frustration and landed right on it
Not good one to look for in broad daylight haha. Needs new log book and gps a bit off. Took queen left elephant.
Over on a geocaching holiday. Enjoying my tour around Adelaide travelling between caches. Soon had this one located. SL TFTC
Found after buying a BBQ! Tftc. Tnln but no pencil so was unprepared to sign log!
Found this with a group of Aussie cachers after today's Pub lunch. Great fun and a sweet little cache. TFTC.
Have attempted this one before but found today with a Kite, a frog, a bee and a scooby.

Early morning and no one about, which made for an easy find. The container is badly cracked and needs replacing, but the contents inside were surprisingly dry!
Quick find but good one. Container needs replacing.
Took cowrie shell, left hermit crab.

Ah !! Dead easy when you are on the pushbike
They sell pushbikes here I noticed !!
Fortunately you can't window shop here, so I found the cache and rode off without buying anything

I managed to get the magic car park which is right next to GZ and provides a little cover. Thankfully I was able to locate this easily. SL. TFTC.
We had no trouble finding a park on this one, in fact we almost did park on it! geoP spotted the prize from afar and made a quick retrieve. The container is cracked but the contents are all in good order.

Found this back and feb. It was bucketing down and blowing a gale which actually proved to be not too bad as I didn't look too out of place sheltering behind the sign out of the weather to sign the log and there were no other pesky muggles walking around.

Quick find on our second trip through Adelaide. After that we had to interrupt our hunt due to the bright sun. Which idiot is going caching in the open sun at 3pm? Well, we did.Thanks for the hunt.
Oh, so *that's* where GZ is... I've been here before to visit the nearby shop. I found a park pretty easily at this time of night - there were hundred's to choose from, but then there seemed to be lots of area where I could find a cache. Finally searched near the right "landmark" and spotted the container.
TNLN - Thanks Challengeus!

A quick find for Pa Kettle whilst visiting the local shops in his lunch break.
On a 40+ degree day you want to Find a Park in the Shade!! Not many of those around here.
Was on my way in to Anaconda to buy an ammo box for my next hide so it was logical to grab this little critter!!! TFTC
We found it bit only after reading back on a few logs. Thanks Challengeus. TFTH...SL...TNLN
We found a park and found a cache!! TFTC.
Quick find, remember there is usually something that cache is near when there is so much ground cover.

Find #8.
For this one we searched in a few different places. We started with the sign, but to no avail. It was in the end, the geoteen who sat down, and found it. The bar-covered light provides a good place to log your find.
Thanks For The Cache!

Find #1107
I have the technology. Found with the GPS. As the place I looked BFE Style was 10 metres away.
There is a lot of ground cover on the ground to cover.
The container is cracked and may not last much longer.

Today we did a huge challange and achieved 178 caches in a 24 hour period starting at gawler on a bicycle at midnight and finishing at the mclaren vale in a car 24 hours later. Sweat, blood and laughter was part and parcel to find a cache every 8 minutes for 24 hours. We found this cache and thankyou for making our challange possible. We were assisted in our challange by emily~angel & dennisC52, Thanks guys you did a fantastic job. We had a ball and were very tired in the end, maybe I'll not cache tommorow hahaha.TFTCSL TNLN you should see our track from the GPS 320km driven in total for the day with 185 caches visited.
Started at Midnight this morning with the Nxy challenge, and continued till midnight tonight in a 24 hour caching hunt with McKee Clan on our bikes, and then joined at 3:30am by Emily~Angel, swapping our bikes for a 4WD, and finishing at Maclaren Vale with 178 finds for the day for McKee Clan and I, and about 120 for Emily~Angel. Had a ball, but was glad to hug the pillow in the end. See the McKee Clan log for more info. SLTFTC.
PS: I'm definately not caching tomorrow!! (I'm paving instead...)

A quick find by torchlight on the way home from xmas dinner with the relies TNLN TFTC
Found on a caching raid with MtnLioness and three geo-kids in tow.
OK. I was tired. I had been through the euphoria of hitting 200 finds earlier. The kids were tired. I needed beer... and after 2 minutes I was damned if I was rummaging through the ground cover anymore! Yes - my will was broken! YOU broke me, with your first hide too (LOL). Please dont do it to me again - I like this new found obsession of mine.
This is one for another day, in another way.

Found it, after a long walk here from the city on a visit from NZ...didn't need the park, but enjoyed finding the cache, though with such a busy place I had to pretend to 'take a rest' with my backpack and drink on a suitable spot in order to grab the cache.
TFTC. TNLN though wished I had had a suitable coin or TB to leave in this larger city cache.
