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.

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.

Cache has been muggled. Comments explain the cache has been removed.

Needs archiving. Cache has been muggled.

DNF looks like it hasn't been replaced first one for the day not a good start:(

Should have read up first two in a row com on orange luft your game lol

DNF think it inside locked toilet

A second DNF for the day, looks like this one is gone too. That'll teach me to check the logs before hand.

Staying at caravan park decided to collect this one while hear unfortunately did not read the comments be for hand wasted my time. One can only surmise what happend to it.

Cache has been muggled. I was here a couple of weeks ago but there were people around. When I came back it was gone. I have a picture from the other week I took of the cache. I will claim that as having found it.

Very easy

Completely soaked! Desperately needs replacing contents!

First find on our geo night scavenge

First find!

Needs some waterproofing for the paper. It was all wet, so we didn't sign it.

Not a chewing gum bottle. A hair gel pot. Really soggy. Needs replacement. Easy find.

Easy find.

Container is not water proof and log is wet. Tipped all the water out but couldn't write on the log.

Tftc, got ya!

Gotcha Tftc

Interesting little spot.

Once I read previous logs and used geo sence and not phone gps quick find. TFTC

Yay

Exposed so buried under some leaves TFTC

In Orange for a few days and thought I would grab a couple of caches TFTC

Tftc left some thing

TFTC

Found it

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

Nice hide and location for a cache.
Found with raykat. Early Sunday morning.
Many thanks for the cache.

Easy find. Log very wet.

Maintenance run, replaced cache and new log, all good to go

Hard couldn't find it

Hard couldn't find it yesterday

A GREAT garden and complex hope it's used all the time and enjoyed. Nice vegies, rhubarb and HUGE strawberries ready for picking right now. Was tempted but didn't take any. Log is VERY VERY wet. Easy find TFTC

_tftc, found in rain after an attempt earlier 2day was thwarted by muggles with mugglings

quick find, tftc

Didn't like this one, muggles with horses and float watching from the other side. Searched for the cache but to no avail. Sob!

Nah, I didn't like this one! It made me feel as though I shouldn't be there!

Fantastic. Veggie garden in full bloom, thx for the plums, spinnach and corn.

Missed this one!!!

TFTC

Hi Found it, been put back too far so brought it forward a bit. TFTC

Co-ords are quite close... Use Geo-senses and this cache is pretty easy.

The elf is a great place!!!

Ignored arrow and used brain. Find # 3000 for me! TFTH

6712 + 835 = 7547. Found during a great weekend caching in the Bathurst region with Sol de Lune.

In Orange now. This was an interesting area. Once we got the right way in the caching Gods smiled, the muggle disappeared and we made a quick find. Signed and then we were off to the next one.

Thanks again SushiKitten !!

TNLN - TFTC !!

Cheers....

Wrong side of the fence at our first attempt, but a quick u-turn soon had us in the right spot. An interestiong little area that is being put to good use no doubt. There was a muggle here at first, but he headed off with dog and we soon had the cache in hand.

Thanks for showing us the area and for the cache SushiKitten. Love the name......ELF....very cool

The ELF was deserted early this morning before work and so after finding how to get in It was relatively easy to find this cache with no one around. I imagine it may be harder at some times of the day. Thanks to the Sushikitten for this cache.

Met a lovely stranger who works here and realised exactly what we were doing. She offered a hint when we were struggling, but alas we didn't manage to locate it. It was very nice to meet a stranger who knew geocaching, however, so still good fun :3

After finally working out how on earth do I get past this fence. I just couldnt find it. I looked everywhere then just put my hand on it without seeing it and there it was TFTC

Gotcha !!! Found on the ground. Replaced where I'm sure it's meant to be. TFTC

Found it. Not sure if it was quite where it was supposed to be, but found it anyway. Nice place. Tftf

watch out for security

Almost became spiderman

Nice quick find today TFTC Sushikitten

Second visit. Pleased to find it this time. TFTC Sushi Kitten.

I'm sure we looked in this spot last time! Perhaps there are some mischievous elves or fairies here after all! This time we found it with no trouble. TFTC Sushikitten.

Now that wasn't there last time! Nice to find this one.

This took several visits as sometimes the building is occupied and I am sure it was not there last time we searched. Interesting place to visit - TFTC.

Number 2 find on a great day out and almost too EASY but still enjoyed the search. TFTC Sushikitten

How did we miss this before? I'm sure it can't have been there then. Glad to mark it off now. TFTC

Nice little spot geokid Millie took the green stone and out in a pendora peas

we found the cache and it was a great find thanks (Master "L" from Karyn's Krew)
Found quickly today as cousins were all on the hunt. SLTNL-glass stone TFTC

Love the ELF! Follow us on Facebook at "central west permaculture" - Scott

We were unable to do this one as there was a equestrian event on and 2 and 4 legged muggles
everywhere.

Not this trip

Once I had worked out it was inside the fence it was a quick grab. No one about today TFTC

Tftc

Nice and easy, TFTC

A nice walk in the sunshine. TFTH

found it, also with me was Squiggles and the geo grandkidlet.

Found my 100th geocache this 2013 Australia Day long weekend, but I'd never logged any of my finds. So I decided now is an opportune time to do so!

This was cache #61, found on our most successful caching day around Orange yet. An interesting spot. TFTC!

YES

Two tries and two fails so far. Guess thats what you get for being newbies.

Tffc

Too many muggles about today will try again another day

Pretty quick find,
Not many muggles around today
Tftc

Was expecting a smaller container. Quick find. TFTC

stopped by here to visit the markets and while the rest where shopping I took the geodog for a walk over here, interesting, we have a place like this in Canberra. nice.
I spotted the container sorta exposed, so an easy find, but returned it a bit more under cover so should be a bit safer now.
Great location thanks for the cache.

An easy find with no one around.
Thanks.

Went back again for another look after help from Team Robins, how could we miss something this big. TFTC

Found it No. 4339 ... quick find ... TN and left Chinese Coins ... TFTC Sushikitten

Third nice quick find for today.
I didn't know that ELF existed so thank you for bringing us here SushiKitten.

# 375

On a rare dog- and child-free trip, Black Bunny wanted to get as many caches as he could, while the getting was good.

Lovely idea, but it was sad to see the garden dry and neglected. I was really tempted to harvest some of the rhubarb and other fruits and veges going to waste, but resisted, hoping that someone would be along soon who is SUPPOSED to be doing that. I did sneakily pull a couple of weeds, though, on the way out. Couldn't resist.

Thanks for the cache, SushiKitten!

A quick grab with Just a cacher on a run to Bathurst for Australia day.

After a short walk to GZ, we had to stop and admire the garden setting. After that it was a quick hop to GZ and grab of the cache in the rain.

Thanks for the cache SushiKitten

Looked high and low

not sure if it is still there or not but we could not find....

Staying in the caravan park we walked up in the evening to have another look at the ELF centre. Been here a couple of years ago when there were no caches out this way. Had a good look at the unkempt vegie patch first and made the find. First to sign new log. Different container to the description now.

Thanks!

Looked in every likely spot, but to no avail.

Last cache found during a drive around town after work. I really should have brought the pushy away this week as the riding conditons would have been superb. The showground and ELF is a great spot, and with no one around, the cache was soon found. I rewarded myself by chewing on some fresh mint before adjourning to the pub for dinner. Thanks again SushiKitten.

Cache was muggled but is back in the game today.

Nice easy find as we had the place to ourselves. Wandered about the garden until it got too cold and windy.
Great idea this. Should be more of these around.
TFTC

3/4 for today!

Wandered around this neat place enjoying the herb smells and had a quick find. All nice and dry. What a great idea ELF is. well done Orange.

SL TFTC

Orange 11. I had to sit in the car and wait from the rain to diminish a bit before getting this one. The walk way was very slippery and the lower level was more of a lake. Apart from me getting wet, this was a fun place to visit. Thanks.

Had a bit of trouble finding this one when we spied the log sheet just laying in the leaves under the board walk.
Log has been wet but it was dry now and a little damaged from being exposed but ok otherwise. A new container was found and placed cache in a secure location. We will contact the CO so that all can be checked out.

Thanks for the cache.

After getting close then seeing the error in my ways i headed to GZ, interesting place ! cache was found quick, i to had the place to myself, thanx

Found it! This is an interesting spot. Thankfully I had it to my self. SL TFTC
