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.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache within 7 days, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 7 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Had a really good look. Found a spot that def looked like it was, but no cache

Disabled, but found the location, so just marking off
 
26-Jan-16
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 page and post a 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.

Thanks for bringing me here anyway SA_CacheHunter

Aways a bit worried about a stone wall cache and this was no different with bits of the wall scattered around the the nearby garden bed.
Spent some time doing what everyone else does and tugged at rocks but no luck today.

29-Mar-14
Second time lucky, and only with quitters' luck kicking in. I was ready to throw it in, but somehow, it "fell out". Not literally, but near enough. Nice day for caching.
 
07-Mar-14
MBB's persistence (or stubbornness!) definitely paid off with this one! Took a LOT of looking and I am sure we both looked in the hidy-hole she found it several times before she spotted it!
TFTC and Happy belated birthday to Dad!
 
Wow, that took forever! Happy to say we finally spotted the cache and put that smiley on the map!!

22-Feb-14
I have tried this one at night with no luck so decided to give it a good go during the day. I was almost ready to give up when I thought I spotted something that looked rather cachey. This was a tricky little one. TFTC
 
09-Feb-14
What a great hide and what a great find. Took a bit of time but it was worth it ib the end.TFTC
 
09-Feb-14
Yes it is there
Found it Smile
 
07-Feb-14
TFTC - After looking under and around every rock I could see the the GZ area I came up empty handed.

About to leave the site (sitting down to pack up) and there it was hiding as the clue had pointed out.
 
11-Jan-14
At last we can cross this one off, i have tried a few times at this one and decided to return and look at putting a replacement cache here, after much looking a start preparing the replacement when geowife pipes up that she has found it, a very tricky hide but i can say that it is there. TFTC
 
11-Jan-14
Will log soon but HOORAY Big GrinBig GrinBig Grin after 3 visits here we finally found it Big GrinBig GrinBig Grin
It is there, we were beginning to wonder ourselves... oh & I'm sure I've already looked there... the first time... way back in June 2013.
It does make me wonder though how people log it online but can't see their names on the actual log sheet, curious!?
 
05-Jan-14
I had a look but couldn't find, bummer. Maybe next time Smile

I hope that geocachers didn't destroy the wall, all the rocks have been pulled out and it looks horrible compared to the rest of the place.
 
04-Jan-14
Out with Ismartis this evening, Hmm, we looked here, there, over, under, and in. Could not seem to place gauntlet to cache.

I fund what might have been a hiding hole, actually several likely place, nada.
 
04-Jan-14
Visiting here with Knightyme, we checked all the rocks but came up empty handed. Is it gone ?
 
31-Dec-13

Was driving past and noticed this cache had a few DNF's so having previously found the cache decided to stop in to investigate. Yep it's gone been muggled by someone.
Sorry didn't have anything to replace it with but just thought I'd put the note on so that no one else comes looking for a yeti.

Three of us couldn't find this one in the dead of night with torch lights. So many hidey holes & loose rocks and still nothing. Maybe it's been muggled! Sad
 
14-Jun-13
Took my lunch to this park today, and having received advise on where to look, I still came up empty.

Sad
 
13-Apr-13
spent quite a while in the dark looking around with torches.
Found a rock with some silicone on it, not sure if the cache was hidden here????

Had a good hunt around with no luck, when an owner of a neighboring house approached and told me that I won't find it, its not there anymore. Needs replacing.

Cache for the day.
Needed something quick as I am still sick and just wanted to get home to bed.
Passed near here after having tea out tonight and saw this on the phone.
Short search where the mobile initially took me and then it decided to take me back to what really was GZ.
No log: just Huurtle's piece of paper. Lid on container is broken off.
I carried in the smallest logbook that I had however it was still too wide. Sorry.
SL (paper). TFTC SA Cachehunter Smile

Smile My very first cache find. Took my Grandson, my son and his partner with me. We had a great time looking for it. Tricky hide. There was a red balloon inside which my Grandson took as his very first treasure find and I placed a silver charm in its place.

Out on an adventure with family including the geokid cousins. They loved this one as it was such a lovely spot to enjoy a few minutes of searching. A gorgeous park after a very short walk from the car! A perfect spot for the little ones. Victory was won by the eldest of the geokids who was so excited to share in the excitement of another find. He was very excited to fold up a balloon to leave in the cache as a birthday treat!
 
07-Jan-12
Sneaky hide. No problem once my arrow stopped dancing around and I found the right one.

Thanks for the cache, SA Cachehunter
