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.

7.15. Archive or unarchive a geocache
Archiving a geocache is meant to be a permanent action. Only community volunteer reviewers and Geocaching HQ can unarchive caches. This is done only in rare circumstances and only if the cache meets the current geocaching guidelines.

If a cache 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.

This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.

Looked in obvious spots but could not find.

Looked all around.... no luck ??

Searched for a while with no luck.

Couldn’t spot it this time

Thanks very easy

Quick find while being watched by several very noisy "Muggles" TFTC

Quick drive by. Sometimes you just spot these immediately, and other times it takes ages. Tftc

Found it, unfortunately paper has got wet!

Nice easy find, logbook is wet as are my feet! TFTC

TFTC Love this town. First visit. So much character. BREKER

A nice quick find after stopping by to say hello to the hens, roosters and ducks. TFTC

Took off up north today and kidnapped a frog. Went hopping around some caches together.
He got one, I got 18... seemed fair. Let's do it all again soon

Around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and oh there it is says the frog.

Much thanks to RadioactiveCache for placing and maintaining the cache on our map

This cache was found and logged using some or all of the resources of GSAK (Geocaching Swiss Army Knife), Garmin Montana 750i, Montana 680t, Etrex 35, Samsung S20+, Samsung S9, with Geocaching App, c:Geo, or Geooh Go, and Android Auto and other maps... or sometimes with just plain old dumb luck!

Stay safe when caching. Watch for snakes, random cliffs, wild goats, wombats, bulldust, and lightning,
try not to get tetanus from rusty mint tins... but especially lookout for bugs. [xx(]

Make sure Travel Bugs are the only ones you share and pass on

2020 turned into 2020won, and 2020too is on the way! 2020free should see us through

Still important to observe social distancing when possible, (150 nano caches apart should do it)
Still important to wash your hands (always has been really [:o)]
Still very important to look after each other and take precautions & get checked out for even the tiniest sniffle or cough, or unexpected headache! [8)] [B)]

Still even more important to get some fresh air and exercise while we can, so get out and cache the country!

Thanks so much to all those placing caches out and about away from the city crowds,
keeps our game safe and interesting

[:o)]

Found

enjoying an easter break away at white cliffs. we came out caching the the bees and cats. a quick find that we were watched by the 4 legged muggles across the road
1895

So we were all set to fly to Dayboro for the Queensland Mega this weekend. There hadn't been a case in Qld for a quite a few weeks before we decided to book in early Feb. What are the chances of a case causing a lockdown and closing the border we thought..So when it all did happen just 4 days before we where due to leave, we were royally peed off. So we had to cancel and find somewhere else to spend Easter. Pt Broughton was a last minute choice. Today we pulled up stumps and headed to White Cliffs campground to join friends for Easter Sunday/Monday. After setting up camp we headed back into town with Chrispy89, travellinbees and Michelle. A quick find as it was laying on the ground out in the open. Looking at the terrain rating I assume its supposed to be in the tree so thats where it was replaced.. TFTC

Cute little cache and cool spot. Thanks Koolunga.

hello

Barked it. Nuce riads for cycling

Gridge98 asked if I wanted to go caching[?] and that word 'caching' deserved a yes[^]
There was an event at Clare at 4pm which was the goal for the day[^] anything else was just a bonus
38 cache smilies: 36 caches found , 1 cool event attended and 1 cache beta tested[^]

Found this cache today as we cleaned Koolunga out[^]

Catching up with some very late logs.
Heading down from Port Pirie to Adelaide to visit a friend who is laid up in hospital we did manage to break the drive with a few cache stops along the way.
Although we the country side looks great with all the green under growth it has been making searching a lot more difficult than it should have.
Happily we did not have that problem here and the well hidden cache was soon in hand and our name added to the log.

Many thanks to GamerLover for a great first cache. a favorite point from us.

Tricky, tricky, tricky . We even had the obligatory barking dog .
TNLNSL
Thanks GamerLover.

Touring Australia having left Perth in late February we are leisurely touring South Australia.

Staying in a 'Free Camp' we werent sure what the weather was going to hold for today. Turned out quite magical, with grey thunder clouds overhead but sunshine still shining through.

We visited the towns of Merriton, Redhill, Koolunga, Yacka and Gulnare also Threadgold's Crossing. A busy day and lots of fun exploring, but with sadly 4 DNF's.

Thanks for helping us tour this region by visiting your cache GamerLover

Searched for around 20 minutes before 3LG and myself located this cache.
a sneaky hide and we thought we had checked that spot many times before.
Took trackables to visit.
TFTC

Get very close to giving this one a DNF and then all of a sudden its right there, how did we miss it so many times. TFTC

tb visit

Time to cache again after the hot spell of summer! Goingtheredoingthat, KarpyKarpyson and myself embarked on another short expedition to retrieve lost treasure on a lovely Saturday morning/afternoon. I think we collected 22 smiles all round. GTDT found this one easily.

Found while on a Saturday morning caching trip with Limbage and Karpykarpson. Find number 11 of 22 for me.
This cache was a space invader.
TFTC

found with gtdt and limbage ..tftc.

Nice one

Nice quick drive by. TFTC

Found with TheSneakyOne earlier this month, but forgot to log. TFTC

A quick easy find, until someone slammed the car boot shut which raised the notice of a local muggle. Waited and waited for him to get back to chopping wood before replacing the cache. TFTC Found with TheEliFinder

Following a 4WD Club event at Melrose and driving out via the Bridle Track, it was time to head inland and grab a few caches on the way home.

What a clever little container. TFTC.

Easy find.
The muggler on the corner seens a lot of cars pulling up and walking
about. But he looked harmless.
