I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, Zodiakhorizon, requesting additional time.
An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.
Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

Looked for roughly 15 minutes all over the place, but nothing to be seen! Thinking it’s been stolen or maybe I just missed it ??
2nd time of looking and still couldn’t find even with the previous posts. Can someone check it to make sure it is still there? If so let me know … feeling kinda defeated and want another shot if it’s here still!
Whilst in the area grabbing some caches we decided to add this one to this list. We made the short walk walk to gz and started our hunt. It took a few minutes before Leega made the call., being mid morning on a Wednesday made it easier being totally muggle free. We added our names to your log and returned your cache back to where it hides. TFTC Zodiakhorizon.
Found with axell33 as we enjoyed a morning of caching on our day off. A short search and we had it in hand. It was a bit drizzley at this point but about an hour ago around Thompson's Lake I got sunburnt! Time for lunch! Thanks for the cache and greetings from Baldivis.
My first attempt was at school finish which meant hundreds of muggles. Today it was deserted and quickly made the find. TFTC
It was really fun and tricky at the same time but I enjoyed it very much
Needed a hand to grab this one. Thanks for bringing me to this lovely little park. TFTC!
Have found a few similar hides over the past week so when I got to GZ started the hunt in a methodical way and turned up the cache after a couple of minutes, a brief check to make sure the area was clear and I retrieved it from its spot and sat for signing duties before another check of the area before replacing.
Thanks Zodiakhorizon for placing this cache for me to find, this is find number 1672 for me.

Day 339 of our 366 day straight challenge. Out with Miss 3 for playground and geocache hunting.
This was easier to spot than retrieve! Had to call on the help of Miss 3 for this one. Log signed and cache replaced as found. Tftc

Freddo loves a large cache.
Oh no it is a nano cache.
Bloody Nanos! Spawn of satan. Burn down the Nano factory, and exterminate anyone who sells Nanos.

With Freddo & KB for the day, we enjoyed wander arond this area - pretty park area etc. Thanks for the cache and hide.
Spot finally returned with Patch this morning and within seconds she made the exclamation: "There it is". Darn, I spent far too long here a few months ago and came up a blank. All's in great shape here thanks Zodiakhorizon.
I was sitting down mucking around on the laptop this arvo after an afternoon wake up, having gone out last night. Got a chime in the pocket and noticed a cache was published. It was in B12 territory. I wasn’t really keen on a 20 min drive to be second, but when a second cache popped up, I decided to have a crack. Well, as it turns out, I got both! BONUS!
Found after a short search. Thankfully my gifted ability is height. Cheers ZH!

Nanny & Poppy got my own online account so I can now log this, found with Parkacruz, smileyjims & piknik15 TFTC
We headed out today with piknik15 for a day of caching, happy to say we came up trumps and walked away with a smilie TFTC

THis is my first forray into the nanoverse for several years. Took a little time but the nano did eventually reveal itsef.

Thanks Zodiakhorizon for bringing me to this location. I found the cache at 14:10:00. This was my Find 5 for today out of a Total number of 5 Finds and 1 DNF for for this Caching Outing. The cache was found in Good Condition and I returned the cache as I found it.
This find brings my total number of Finds to 4418.

I saw it but discounted it. I then searched every other option before deciding to have a better look. Bingo.
It pays to be taller.

Must be cleverly hidden as I reckon that I looked everywhere here. Oh well, back to the sulking. Thanks anyway ZH but it was 0/3 for yours today.
Out for a sneaky night of caching with Spike.
Long arms defs useful here.

Decided to tackle the various caches of Hammond Park at night with Ranga-arms to remove the chances of being muggled.
Thankfully for us we were both vertically advantaged and were able to get this one without and dramas

Headed up to Cockburn central, for some late night shopping and a couple of caches of course, Tftc.
Took a while and lucky my partner in crime had some reach. 4m from where the gps said it was though...
Finally. Ready to give up when I tried one more strategy to test the possibilities. Yes. It's possible and then it was spied. Just as well I have the necessary attributes to access this one. Log full so replaced with a new roll. Tftc
Back to today and thankfully avenged our previous DNF.
TFTC Zodiakhorizon this is find # 4600 for us.

Noticed the comments on this cache and as we live close by decided to check on it. It is still there in place. Happy hunting.
Brimming with confidence after a quick find on the 4.0 difficulty, we thought we would just knock off a 1.5 in the area. Alas, it seems to missing or microscopic. Nice stroll, though.
Searched high and low ( the best I could ) with the neighborhood group dog washing event going on cross the road ? resorted to reading previous logs but still no luck. We'll try again another time when there are less Muggles ( and their owners!) around.
I'm pretty certain that I've been here before but hadn't been able to reach the nano. The container wasn't in the spot I remembered and a 20 minute search didn't reveal a container anywhere else either. Reading the online log, I wonder whether the container just gets replaced every now and then by cachers who realise the previous container is missing. Will watch with interest until someone I actually believe found the cache logs a find.
We were almost sure we'd find a 1.5 difficulty cache.... maybe we were just overconfident... We looked everywhere (well at least we think we did...) There was a muggle across the road which made it even harder, but hopefully we'll come back soon and get a smiley!
Didn't see it initially, but a read of some logs had me onto it. Waited until the neighbouring mowerman had turned his back and grabbed it. TFTC Zodiakhorizon.
A frustrating find but the geobestie got it eventually
Closing in on 100 total finds and 20 for the day...
Log is also full

We headed away from home early this morning to grab some caches before heading to Freo for a spot of Xmas shopping . Mrs jinta and I targeted some of the caches close to home that we had overlooked until now and a few ithers on the way. A big thanks to Zodiakhorizon for placing this container out here for us to find [^].

Originally found under family caching name clan-wallace, now re logging under own name.
Decided to grab this one while I was in the area to grab another one. Not sure this is a very clever hide, large risk of being muggled and also damaging the environment. Each to their own.

Zodiakhorizon, I found your cache ZH's Nano-Virus - Infection on 8/06/2016 at 2:05 PM.

Searched high & low & couldn't find anything. Comments from other geocachers didn't help us find it. Maybe another time
In the area this arvo and thought I would have a go at a couple of the 'Nano-Virus' caches, wasn't too successful unfortunately.
A few muggles in the vicinity here as well, had a quick look but I couldn't spot the it.
Zodiakhorizon I couldn't find your cache, this was my 2nd DNF for the day. I did have 1 finds today so all is not lost.

TFTC. Found after call for help from geo friend. Took a while with geo family and a few muggles around. Replaced as found.
In the area today hunting down a few caches closer to home we stopped by this one... Another hide which I had be unable to locate on a previous visit, but thankfully today I spotted this one as I was approaching GZ It did then take a bit of work actually getting the cache as there was a group of kids also in the vicinity... Eventually the cache was retrieved all backs were turned! The cache was also returned in the same fashion before we decided it was time to head on home.

On the road with JoshyJayPlay doing a Sunday cache run.....picked up most caches today...TFTC
Finally found after 2nd attempt! A family of shorties needs 2 people for the extraction!
Headed out with MNS13 & our youngest today to find a couple caches, in between trying to remain cool in this heat We were happy to be searching in the shade here, although we could not find the cache We shall return with Jase as he is a little taller than us! Until next time..... TFTH Zodiakhorizon
We searched high and low for this little nano. After reading some previous logs we agreed on the general area we needed to search, but it turns out we just weren't tall enough.
Thanks for the hunt zodiakhorizon

Second visit to this cache, and after a brainwave was an quick spot and extraction!! TFTH
What an optimistic way to start a day's caching - with some ZH Nanos! But it sure does help to be in company with a previous finder! This was another devious hide, but was able to spot it from afar when given a very broad hint!
Thanks for the cache Zodiakhorizon.

After finishing the Ant Trail series up in Serpentine, the weather was too hot to stay in the bush so ooh yeh and I decided to give some nano virus's another chance.
Arrived here with a clear head and searched and searched.......still no luck.
Sat down and re-read previous logs so searched some more and hoorayyy....spotted the sneaky little nano. Signed the log, replaced and thankfully don't have to return here again.

After going out with skippy 46 to do the Ant Trail Series in the hills we still had a couple of hours to spare so we thought we would try and eradicate some of the nano-virus caches. This was our first stop and we had been here a while ago with no luck back then. This did take a lot of searching in the wrong places but finally the nasty nano was spotted. Sneaky hide... TFTC Zodiakhorizon
After having done home owner jobs for 3 days in a row on the Easter Holiday weekend I decided I deserve Easter Monday off and enjoy the day doing some caching so I didn't say no this time when mistraluna asked if I wanted to come out to play.
This wasn't an easy find but nevertheless....

Caught the train up today and was picked up by Me&B at Cockburn station. This one was almost a dnf for us. Resorted to using PAF for a clue. Sneaky, sneaky, sneaky. Thanks Zodiakhorizon
Was a very poor and frustrating afternoon of caching. Didn't find any of the three nano's in the area. Spent around 30min climbing all over everything but only more spiders
While in the area with AmstradKid we decided to scout out some ZH Nanos. As we arrived we saw the obvious places and quickly searched without luck. So we thought we would read the successful logs, and then a light bulb moment happened and AK spotted the nasty evil hide, a Allied Pranksters crew application is coming your way, ZH after the last wave of DNF's we were glad to find this one.

Was with Keego and as he read out the logs I understood where it was.
Found and put back quickly.
