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.

From http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70

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.

This cache is MIA.
Looks like this one is time to archive with no one finding this cache and no response from the CO.

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.

Found a while ago just logging on app as was lost

This cache needs the CO to visit as the area has had major Road Works with the Armco railing been replaced I think this cache needs to be replaced.

Travelling past this cache for a quick find on Christmas day but no luck here.
With the recent road works and maintenance of the Armco railing replacement I think this cache is MIA.

After playing paintball nearby, tried to find this one but after about 15 minutes of prodding and feeling likely spots came up with nothing. Then after coming home and having a look at the photos, realised that the likely structure is removed due to roadworks and repairs to the bridge and the cache is gone? Maybe the CO can confirm?

2nd cache today. Great views of the water. TFTC.

#2325 (14 of 15 today)

Decided to head back up Windsor Road today, and then stopped once I'd got to Riverstone. Plenty of possible finds up this way, and I did indeed hit the jackpot with 15 finds (plenty of Blundo Busters' Train Spotter series actually found), 1 DNF and an "OOPS, I'll call that a DNF too".
Back home via Annangrove Road for a few more finds before heading for home well before dusk.

Got here to find a council worker busy near GZ. Great. He moved to the other side of the road and I moved in towards the cache.
A limited number of logical hides meant I had it spotted, but needed to time the grab for when the worker was otherwise engaged.
Took it further away to see the path goes nowhere. What's the point of that?

Completed signing duties and took in the view. Wonder what the concrete pylons in the creek were originally for?
Then as the workman left I made the replace.

We stopped and than we searched this Box.
Thanks for the Cache

After a day out at Cattai I decided to try a different route back to Windsor Rd and try for a few caches along the way. Stop number one, Annangrove Bridge.

I like bridge caches as I seem to have a knack for finding the cache in the 1st place I look or feel. So that made this a quick find. SL & rehid.
After all the rain in the last 2 days the water was flowing really fast in the creek below.
TFTC # 1084

Yay first one for ages!

21/08/15. 10:35 AM. Cache #2865. Streak day #425.
6th of 12 finds this morning.

Whereas my previous find, "Amaroo Park Raceway", was a quick, simple park and grab, I took way longer to find this one than I should have. Partly because there was a lot of bridge to cover and many possibilities, and partly because I was distracted when a couple of white-tailed black cockatoos flew over and landed in the large dead gum and started making some noise, only to be joined later by about half a dozen others - beautiful birds!

Eventually I spotted it from the right angle, so quickly signed and replaced before getting back to the car; next one is "Paintball". TFTC.

Sneaky spot

Thanks

#279 - Garmin eTrex 30

This was the only find for today. I managed to park just outside the garden centre and made my way down to GZ. Given there is a small open drain, the ground underfoot looked dry but was very soft and soggy so I was glad to end up on the concrete of the pedestrian access. I got a lock on the GPS but then found myself walking up and down because I couldn't see anything odd. After a little while, I looked at the hint which narrowed down what the cache could be attached to and I soon had CIH. This place would be very relaxing with the sound of the river and the bellbirds if the traffic wasn't flying past. SL. TFTC.

At last - drive past several times a week, but never got round to stopping! Must be quite a sight when this is 4m deep water!!!
TFTC

Great spot

Love the hiding place.

Good spot! Clearly a popular cache so happy to join the others in this find. Needs more paper so more people have the joy of logging their find:-) thank you!

TFTC not many pedestrian here.

My dad's first find. TFTC.

out for a fix after a busy day at a fun fair. parked nearby and found easily. tftc

streak day # 157

Found on a long drive.
Thanks for the cache

Quick find for the streak TFTC

Had a couple of hours to kill this morning, and what better way to spend that time the finding caches! I'd had my eye on this cache for a while and now finally had an opportunity to grab it. Nice quick and easy find, I really love this part of Annangrove. SL TFTC AussieCacher!

Lovely hide. If only it wasn't for all the traffic it would be a very relaxing spot.

Followed description and soon had cache in hand. TFTC.

Mini thunderbox is on fire today #2 for the morning for skipper

Stopped for this one on return home from family caching afternoon in Kenthurst area. Once knew which side of path to be looking made the find much easier! TFTC.

21st cache found on a family caching afternoon with Blundo Busters, Blundo Busters Jnr and thereimer on the Anzac long weekend. Great cache to finish our caching adventure. Lots of water flowing in the creek underneath the bridge. Thanks AussieCacher.

Found in good condition

Not difficult but well placed. Thank you.

quick find on the way home.

TFTC SLTN

Nice easy find after looking on the wrong side first, coords ate spot on.

Little geo brother found it tftc (:

Tricky little spot but a good find

First all-family cache

First full family find TSTC

After a damp Christmas day it was time to grab a few more local caches and this was one of them.
Wandered out across the small walking track but I could see a walking track under the bridge so thought that's where it is so wandered down checking for snakes and anything else that may be lurking
all to no avail and then spotted what could be a hiding location and this proved to be correct.
A nice hide in the end that fooled me for a while but all good as it was found and signed and I was on my way again.

accompanied with Dolphia, TFTC

Nice water streams under bridge! TFTC

.

Hidden Creeper and I came a-visiting. A bit if back and forth but soon had cache in hand. TFTC, AussieCacher

Excellent hide spot... enjoyed look at the river - flow the water... Signed the log. Thanks AussieCacher.

Nice quick & easy find! This is #93 in my attempt to do a Streak of 100. Started this streak with the 31 Days of Geocaching in August from HQ. SL / TFTC

Found with mhoneybadger. TFTC

I frequently travel over this bridge as it is on an alternative route I often take to work. I have been meaning to pick up this cache for some time now but it's always been an "I'll do it next time" thing. Anyway, today I actually decided to stop and give it a go.

I parked on the west side of the bridge, crossed Annangrove Road and walked back. At first I was looking in slightly the wrong location but I persisted and before too long had CIH. The coordinates are pretty accurate.

Nice hide, thanks AussieCacher.

found with happypaintball and LJ05 and caitcat17 tftc

nice quick find thank you

a quick park and a stroll over the bridge checked out the creek and signed log thanks for a nice little hide

Nice little spot to stop and grab a cache enjoyed a quick look at the creek, found with LJ05 Caitcat 17 and hiddit TFTC

Day 13 of "31 Days of Geocaching"

Cache found in good condition .... TNLNSL .. TFTC !!!

We had no luck here today, there is a water leak right at GZ so hopefully that hasnt interferred with the cache

Found it after a nice long lunch at the garden centre.

Parked near the nursery and walked over the bridge until we reached GZ. Great little cache!

TFTC, NazzoR

Found, while visiting Sydney.
Good hide, hard to imagine this bridge going under.
We were in Wagga for the floods of Feb '12, so have seen first hand the power of water.
TFTC

An easy find, am sure we have done a cache on this bridge years ago? Plenty of water in the creek below.

Found the appropriate spot eventually.

TFTC found with azazzlenic and Team Webguy

Didn't think there were many spots to hide a cache here. Soon figured out where the gaps were.

TFTC found with bisygisy and Team Webguy

2 m off GZ. Found at last. Lots of funny looks from drivers!!

Once GZ located, was a quick find. Said hello to the huntsman guarding the cache. SL TFTC

A good little place to come by, have a quick stop to find the cache and inspect the immediate area thinking of those big water heights during flooding. Blew the geokids away with that thought.

An interesting story to tell about the bridge... funny how much of Australia is suddenly awash with huge amounts of water and the rest of the time it's quite a slow trickle like it was today. TFTC

Nice Cache, TFTC

Zeroed in on this one very quickly. After the storms last night the creek below was rushing. Hard to believe this bridge could go under - it's so high above the creek. Thanks AussieCacher.

Cache was found by geoboyfirend! Good hide. Thought looking at night would be easier, although had found that there were a lot of muggles driving past! TFTC

Systematically serched and found, TFTC

Cache located fairly quickly, Thanks Aussie and some interesting history here. SL..TFTC

Took a while on this one as the coords need a bit of tweaking. TFTC

No. 171

TFTC. Found with Geodude96.

Woo hoo 2nd for the morning on a roll. Geodad & Geoson 2 found this one. Clever hide. TFTC

The coords weren't too far out for us here. We followed a previous log and were going to start at each end but didn't need to fortunately.
cheers from Browngang

Found with geomate Browngang. The coordinates seemd to be out on this one but a systematic search soon turned up the goods. Thanks for the cache.

TFTC CobTod

With the clues saying it can be found from the footpath and a lot of logs questioning co-ords, all that was left to do was think like a cache owner and wonder “where would I place a magnet?” Starting at different ends of the bridge, charligirl beat me to the find. As it’s only a 1 ½ star difficulty, can I offer the final two numbers of both latitude and longitude are out 5-8 degrees… but I won’t say which way

Found this afternoon after a reasonable search. My GPS zeroed near the centre and after coming up empty handed there I expanded my search. I was about to give up when I double checked a spot and something moved proving to be the cache.

It would be an amazing sight to see the bridge go under as noted in the cache listing.

Thanks AussieCacher for the cache.

Searched where the coords took us then read previous logs and dad went looking in different places and he found it. TFTC

Had to get one off my list as was the closest to home for a while now. the phone had me closer to the middle of the bridge so took a bit to locate. TFTC

Found With Team Unibolt on our assult on some of the many caches in sydney this one took a bit of time one end to the other as the GPS settled down ended up just checking all to likely hidey holes Thanks Aussiecacher for the hide

This one took a little while to come up with the prize, as the coords didn't seem to be helping so they were abandoned and a systematic search was instigated. This proved effective and the cache was soon in hand. TFTC.

Searched this bridge twice before and worried as my GPS had me in the river but I was going by the name and assumed it was on the bridge. Frustrated I asked the previous frustrated finder for a hint and finally was able to locate this cache. Coords may need a little tweaking. SL # 323

After getting frustrated last time i was here, Today the cache was located a little further past my last search reasonably quick. TFTC

Good cache amazing to read about the floods!!!!

Ahhh once we got the just of it. We had this cache in hand after about 15 minutes! GPS wanted me to get wet! Nice hide! F&B

Second find before eclipse

Another 10m error from my GPS on this one but being aware of it I had the cache in hand quickly.
A fair amount of water in the creek.

TFTC

Have seen a similar one of these up in the Hunter Valley, so was an easy find, after some searching. TFTC.

seemed i searched every part of this bridge. Guess my caching eyes weren't in focus today.

Found this one a little tricky, gps was a little off. Almost about to leave and found it at the last second.

Hmm, the hire car was never going to get us this far down the track... So we headed off in search of another.

Logging TB visit

TFTC SL. Didn't take too long but ha the potential to.

Decided to backtrack while nightfairy85 continued forward where low and behold she found the cache one up from where I turned back. 9pm on a Sunday and still heaps of carrs driving by. TFTC c",)

Quick easy find after discovering the gps was 20m out. TFTC

Pretty quick find, hint was helpful but gps was off.

tftc sl 14 of 28 to day

Cache Hunt 712; GAFF3; Weather, Sunny/Evening; Helpers, None; Cache condition, Good; Find of the day, 1st; STATUS, Found; GPSr at GZ - 2m

After a quick shopping trip, I had about 30min to spare before dinner. I drove to try and clean up a few caches still unfound in this area. I drive over the bridge and parked, then walked back and started looking around. After a short while I went for the hint, but it wasn't until I realised how the bridge was made, that I worked out where the cache must be. Sure enough, checked and 'BAM and the cache is mine!' Grabbed it, SL and replaced. Thanx AC, TFTC.
