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.

Two weeks in Australia for holidays with Kirdec.

Mostly, the caches were found without difficulty, thanks to all the owners for their work.

Cool hide!

First visit to Australia, visiting our oldest daughter who lives in St Ives, Sydney. What a wonderful country! We are having the most beautiful weather. Reminds us of South Africa, our homeland.

Such a beautiful area.
Thanks for the adventure and the totally creative epically setup well organised.

Cache in good condition. Log wet.

Due to poor mobile reception we had to log most caches afterwards which involves some administration.

A picture is worth a thousand words - confucius

Greetings from South Africa.

Came to the coast for a family day of swimming, sightseeing and caching with the geofamily. While in and around we grabbed a handful of caches when we had some time before heading back to Goulburn and home. Thanks to the cache owners we had a blast and can't wait to return again. Such a beautiful spot. Smile

Found it quite easily and took a trackable. Favourite point for the views here.

Ah ha - lovely beach, lovely park, geocache exactly where it should be. Is it REALLY the whitest sand in the world? Certainly much whiter than the sand on our local beach in Queenscliff, Victoria. TFTC

Nice easy one and spectacular views thanks

My in-laws used to own a house not far from here, so it was good to come back and see what has changed.

The log is full and looking a bit ratty, so a new log and a bit of a clean out could be necessary. TFTC

We're on the second day of our stay. The GeoSchnauzers and I are loaded for geocaches. Car, GPSr and sundry kit, ice water, and a sense of fun and adventure. It wasn't such a good day for GeoSchnauzers. Many of the caches were in the National Park, so we skipped them, and a couple were just on the fringes, so I went by myself. And I missed out on the earth cache, because it was too far into the NP. Never mind, we still had fun.

Thanks, FoxesDownUnder. The dogs and I had a good walk along the cliff top, spoke to some people, watched the dolphins in the bay, and grabbed the cache in between dolphin watchers. This was our first for the day, after three we had to skip.

Thanks for the walk Smile

This is one beautiful location. We actually did walk right along the beach and over the rocky headland looking for the next cache along only to be muffled out. Still this was a good quick find with an extra bonus. I have never seen a wooden travel bug before! Thank you so much for this cache. The coffee at Hyams beach store and cafe, just up the road, was so good we went back for lunch after this find.

Kitti Kati and I in Australia - Day 4:

Today we've gotten a big tour from our host father John. We started in Wollongong and our first stop was at the blow holes around Kiama.

After that we moved on to the fossil's of Geringong and than we started the great tour up to the Kangaroo Valley. (Unfortunately we didn't saw any Kangaroos). Later on we crossed the old Hampton Bridge an went up to the Fitzroy's Falls.

While we drove there, Kati read about the whitest sand in the world and so we decided to go there. The Beach was really beautiful and we stopped on several locations and we also came across at this Cache. John parked the Car near ground zero and Kati saw the gaudy container from afar. Smile

Heute sind wir mit John umher gefahren. Er hat uns zu vielen Touristenpunkten gebracht, wo wir natürlich auch einige Dosen einsammeln konnten. Der letzte Stopp, halb fünf am Nachmittag, war hier. Laut meinem Reiseführer ist das der weißeste Strand der Welt (Guinnessbuch der Rekorde). Den Cache konnte ich schnell entdecken. Ich habe versucht ihn besser zu tarnen.
