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.

Couldn't find this one ...I must have misplaced my caching eyes today.

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.

With a long line of DNFs and no response for over 5 months to the needs maintenance request, I think it's time for this one to go.

Either im blind or it's been nicked or it's hidden amongst rubbish and I've simply overlooked it.

With a line of DNFs going back months, this one may need a checkup by the CO.

Did not find today

Didn't find this one. Hasn't been found for a while. May need a check by the CO.

Has not been found for a while ?

No luck here today for us. We hunted for quite a while but just couldn't locate it. Interesting seeing the date of the last find on this one compared to others in the region so I have a sneaking suspicion some dnfs haven't been logged.

Found whilst down in Victor Harbor for the day,
tftc

Found but wet inside after today's rain. TFTC JenneG & Budgy

Heading down south with Debandy taking the caching rout which as we all know is the most time consuming and inefficient way to go anywhere .Travel one km turn down side road for 500mtrs, back to road travel two km's stop at park and head out on foot into the bush for 150mtrs, back to car head down road for 6 kys stop at bridge and climb under it. Many cache were found and many kilometers were traveled to actually go not very far at all.

Thanks for the cache!

Stumbled on this very quickly , it's looks like something has decided to make a home out of the cache tftc

Found by The Boofs TFTC ☺ This was a great hide - it had us looking in all the wrong places!!

Found this one while having based our caravan at the Adare Caravan Park at McCracken near Victor Harbor. A lovely area to cache in. We particularly enjoyed the sea views and its great to see that Spuddymore has been busy since we were here last giving us the chance to get lots of smileys Thanks to spuddymoore for placing this cache. Fav point allocated and a new log book provided

Great Hide. This will earn a favourite. Happy New Year. TFTC

Great cache had to think like a cacher, looks cache had not been touched for some. Time as bugs all over so wasn't too keen on opening cache. Tftc

Soon located the tricky hide, signed the log and on to the next one. TFTC.

Mrs Beetle found this one in a place that Mr Beetle had already searched and moved on from. A nice hide but a bit bug infested. Thanks.

Took only a little while to locate this cache, but was soon found. TFTC

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

Currently camped with our Caravan at Kuitpo. We left our Cat safely tucked up in the caravan and she was very happy to catch up on her sleep after the stormy conditions of last night.

The weather bureau had forecast that most of the showers would be gone by lunchtime so we decided to head towards Victor Harbour and Port Elliott.

Grabbed as many caches as we could and still sight see as we went.

Your cache was one that helped us see the local area. We were happy that we got to see the steam train ride along past us twice today when we were on the cache trail.

Nice work on this cache, but Mr Felix was onto it, fairly quick smart. The amount of weeds at this time of year did not help with the search. A fave from us.

TFTC, Regards from FelixII [^]

Today we make our way back to Victor and after the last 2 failed attempts today we actually make it all the way grabbing quite a few caches along the way, weather was great for us today and still have many more still to find down this way, a nice quick find for us today. TFTC

found it. took us longer then it should have. there were lots of slugs on it. tftc!

Made this harder than it should be, if you go to GZ, this cache is a breeze, do not overthink it like we did. TFTC spuddymoore. Liked this one.

Easy

Nearly last cache for the day after a busy one on hind marsh island. Tftc

Easy find. Ta

Nice find with !mike

A clever hide. Found wit La Kedi on our way through to Victor Harbor. Thanks spuddymoore.

Fancy that! Pulled over to check out the information board, automatically checked to see if there was a cache nearby; 26m, it says! And a good one it was, too. TFTC, spuddymoore. =^.^=

Awesome cache, really clever. Many thanks.

Quick grab with Genghicat & Orange Unicorn. TFTC

Congratulations to Orange Unicorn on their 100th find

Nice easy find and quickly located. Found on my caching trip down to Victor Harbor with Donnazev and Orange Unicorn.

TFTC.

Great find for our 100th cache! Thanks for that

On the way to Murray Bridge for the OZ Mega 2014.......

A nice quickie find on the way down south to pick up the daughter and friends from a camp.
Had a quick peruse of the signage, but I knew how to get to Adare, so didn't really need the map. Just a nice little cache was enough for my stop
TNLN, TFTC SpuddyMoore

Cheers

Great hide in a busy place glad we found at night time tftc

Tricky!!!

In the area working our way towards the Oz Mega. Opporortunity to grab some great caches along the way. This was a quick find in a busy place. Thanks spuddymoore.

Found it with a bit looking.

VERY CLEVER. Gets a point from me! TFTC

After enjoying the day at Port Elliott with family, I decided to take the back roads and make a few caching stops on the way home. This was the fifth, and again with the aid of the hint it was a quick find. Definitely my favourite of the day. TFTC spuddymoore!

Lots of white ants around but found it

Don't know if there will be much log left soon- termites or some other borer- looking bugs all over the camo. Great hide though

Out caching with JJ52, a great day where I clocked up 56 caches, now my record for most caches in a day!

Thanks JJ52 and TFTC

Decided to have a day caching at and around Victor Harbor so Ismartis and I headed down in the morning with a list of caches that we hoped to get. After a great day we ended up with 55 smileys and 3 DNF's with Ismartis grabbing an extra one on the way home. [^] [^]

Got to GZ and started looking around, then an ah ha moment and cache was in hand. I love it when everything falls into place. Had to shake off hundreds of termite looking anty creatures before we could retrieve and sign the log.

Thanks for another well crafted cache spuddymoore and a favourite point from me.

The Mail Truck TB did not fit. Am logging this so the owners know that we have been trying although i have forgot on plenty of cache occasions to click the "visit" button for this TB, its needing a cache large enough & we havent yet found one.

The hide we have seen for ages. I signed a spare piece of paper & placed in blue bag as signing drenched log was not happening. Tftc, awesome. With all the grass, i almost missed the hint altogether.

Clever hide
TFTC

Clever hide - liked this one. A favourite for sure.

Not sure if I found new cache or old cache. Not film canister but old green mint tin. Signed anyway after a fight with some branches. TFTC.

Smart cache

Nice hide spuddymoore!
TFTC

Found. Co ordinates were fine for me.

We took a while to find this one. Once we did find it I realised I overthought the hint. Thanks spuddymoore.

A clever hide - well done. TFTC

Took a while to find , coords are about 8 metres out
Nice camo

nice quick find on a caching round this morning sltnln tftc

TFTC

A beauty, this one took a little longer to find.
TFTC spuddymoore

A good hide TFTC spuddymoore

Today I had a space in my Caching Calender, so out I went to find a cache.
I'd been to the gym at McCracken, so was just down the road and stopped off.
Was a bit concerned when I saw the chainsaw work done here. Thought to myself: "Now that's extreme Geocaching!"
Found prize sitting happy in its clever hide.

TFTC spuddymoore )
8:20 AM - Find #1368

Stopped near the cache and was a little dismayed to see that some heavy pruning and ground clean up had recently been done. We wondered if the cache was still there, so after a quick look Lace noticed a likely object and sure enough the cleaver hide was found. 1/25

Lead 'n Lace

Found by Mr & Mrs M-SEZ on a kid free anniversary getaway. We spent 2 days in the Victor Harbor area and stayed the night at the McCracken country club. Although we've been to this beautiful area many times before, it's the first time we've cached here.

We searched here for ages before Mrs M-SEZ made the find. TFTC

Found with Sully1 on our way to Victor Harbour for a couple of more days in this cache rich state.
This was a terrific trip with great weather and friendly welcoming cachers to meet and greet.
A huge variety of hides had us on our toes, and a huge thanks to all the local cachers who provided the fun for us. Thanks again spuddymoore, we did a lot of your hides today

Had a day of caching at Victor Harbour,
This was avery cleverly concealed cache, loved the container
Worth a favourite point
Thanks spuddymoore

Found with bogonghazy after Semiks Birthday Event at Normanville and heading to Victor Harbour on the way home. Thanks to spuddymoore for the cache.

After another very enjoyable evening celebrating Semik's birthday at the "gonna soak up the sun event" we again joined forces with maccamob and alansee to head out to find some caches. We were unsuccessful finding this caches predecessor due to muggles so we were keen to try and find this one. For a little while it looked like we may have the same trouble this time but fortunately they decided to leave and as maccamob had already spotted the hide all we needed to do was add our names to the log. As we have said previously we enjoy hides that have had a bit of effort put in so we will leave a favourite for this one,
Thanks for the cache.

Found by Mary & David, in company with Team Crackers and Alansee, at 1100. A pity it isn't wildflower season, as all the shrubs have seed pods, like a grevillea or a bottlebrush. Had to wait for a couple of muggles to depart. Great job with the camo. Our thanks to spuddymoore.

Mr S went caching while Mrs S gave a presentation at the civic centre. Had to wait for a couple of couriers to exchange parcels before claiming this one.
Thanks for the hide, spuddymore.

Geocaching with Braveheart17 over the past few months in the Fleurieu area. Only just logging them all now, sorry. Love the hides and the adventures, thanks to all for the hunts. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Very cute. Took a cat left A car

Great hide. Thankyou for this caching experience for my newbee buddies. And a new smiley for me.

Took us a bit, but a awesome find!

Had looked before like so many others but with a tip from a friend I found it quickly. Nice one TFTC.

Sorry spuddymoore for the generic log but I'm trying to catch up on my logging, I currently have over 1000 to log before hitting some powertrails in the US after the block party next week. As always I enjoy the hunt whether I'm solo or with some of my caching or muggle friends. Thanks to those who have accompanied me to make the day more pleasurable and many thanks spuddymoore for placing this cache.

Out on a cache hunt this afternoon along the main drag between Mclaren Vale and Victor Harbour.

I parked then checked my GPS. It was suggesting I had parked right on top of the cache .

I checked under the car but no cache .

So then I widened my search a bit and found a likely spot...Yep there it is! Nice camo. TFTC spuddymore.

A quick pull over and find as we chose a cooler place to cache for the day TFTC

The first time we were a little off during a late night caching session but second time we were lucky as larry tftc!

A quick find on a holiday cache run after a fun day trip on the train. TFTC SL

TFTC

Found It!

Nasty, but fun I must remember stay out of those flowered trees.tftc

More spuddy carpentry magic. Becoming way to acquainted with these. Given that my future holiday home is here I always enjoy being welcomed back to my future home. TFTC spuddymoore.

A quick find with the x-trailers.
Took trackables to visit.

TNLNSL
Thanks

this was abit of a challenge but after reading the hint it was pretty easy
the gps co-ords was in middle of road
after we expanded our search it was soon in our hands
thanks spuddymoore for the cache
cache is in good order

Spent the day out caching with Firesafe heading south
getting harder in the dark

Another day heading south with the goal of getting to Victor Harbor and today we finally made it but it took 5 hours to get there - too many distractions (caches) along the way. It was good day with 57 finds, 3 hides and a little sunburn.

Quick find and sign - clever camo. TFTC.

Very tricky, clever and well hidden but found it in the end.
