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.

Found it, well geoson did (coordinates were pretty good). picked up TB. Container was full of water. We dried out the container and the log in the car. We have put it back in a slightly drier spot, in exactly the same coordinates.

not there?

Have spent a lot of time searching for this one. Can someone confirm it’s still here?

Had a thorough search under bridge but not found.

After a wile I found it and thank goodness there was no snakes
Tftc
And the cache fit perfectly when I put it backvery satisfying

OMG This one has stumped me a few times. I had a thorough grid pattern search today and got a result.

When I replaced the cache it fit so perfectly. I think this one needs both the degree of difficulty and the terrain ratings increased to possibly 2.5/2.5 possibly higher.

Glad to cross this one off the hit list.

Stopped by here on my way past...
My blue face has been on my cache page for far to long so it was nice to finally change it to a smiley with a nice quick find...
No snakes were observed here today...

Only time I didn’t have spare logs & we came across a cache that needs a new one (soggy log) no snakes this time. We picked up Cedric, he’s going to come along with us for a while

Dropped off TB here today - Cedric the Fish

Picked up TB; White Elf kindly replaced the log book [^]

Didn’t see any snakes. The mozzies are big enough to carry you away, though [*)]

Nice quick find while out plane spotting. Replaced the logbook as the single sheet that was in there was soggy and unusable. TFTC! Caching with CrackedChelle

Rolf aus Deutschland und Antje, Paige aus Adelaide haben es gemeinsam gefunden. Antje zuerst.
Ein schönes Versteck.
Danke vom Fischboi.
Rolf from Germany and Antje, Paige from Adelaide have found the Cache. Antje found it first.
Thank you from fischboi.

Too wet, too cold - Adelaide in August is unpredictable

Looked for about 10 minutes but couldn't find.

Couldn't find it after five minutes on our way to do a couple caches. Might come back for another go when we are in less of a rush.

Took way longer than it should using the phone GPS, once I looked at a map it was in hand quickly. Log is wet, only managed to make a mark, TB still in cache as I am only doing this occasionally now. TFTC

Out and about with Team Barritts visiting Adelaide. Tftc.

We were full of optimism about this cache, and how easy the find would be. Hmmm, karma stepped in. Anyway we searched for a good 15 mins and decided, okay step away, back to geobasics and start again. Now with fresh eyes the cache was soon in hand, log signed and returned to its hiding spot!

We retrieved the trackable and will move it on for more adventures, TFTC Woolly!

Stayed Adelaide for few nights. found it Woolly_, thank you so much for placing it.

yep. coordinates were good. still took us forevs.

left a nifty rock.

3rd time lucky!

Must. not. Cache. On. Lunch break

Damn only 2% battery power left ... Retreat !

nice piece of infrastructure TFTC

Spent an afternoon caching with [@GeckoJ](http://coord.info/PRRFBPN) , [@JayG10](http://coord.info/PRRFB83) , @trimthecat and @Smersh. For a total of 8 finds; 6 multi’s including a 5/5 and a 4/1, 1 traditional and 1 mystery along the way.

Out for an afternoon of finding with [@fluffymaxi](http://coord.info/PRRFVJ6) , @smersh, [@Trimthecat](http://coord.info/PRRE5KW) and [@JayG10](http://coord.info/PRRFB83). With a couple of multi’s on the target list, we decided to get a couple of others in the same areas where we were and finished with 8 finds, including a 5/5 and a 4/1 D/T to fill some spots on the grid.
This was the first, which was made while undertaking surveillance for an approach for another. We passed on the approach from this location and took an easier route, but found this while in the area. [@Trimthecat](http://coord.info/PRRE5KW) made an easy find utilising his feline dexterity to pounce on the cache.

Quick find tftc

Found it

Was passing through the area, and thought this may be a nice one to find today. A lot of the previous log had mentioned an easy find, but for whatever reason, I had to spend more time than I needed to in locating it. I'm not sure why I missed an obvious geocache hide initially, but perhaps I had some alternative bias in my mind to what I was looking for. It's actually a great spot here with the river and watching the plans take off/land, so wouldn't mind riding this bike path on a nice day. Thanks for this cache placement!

found with sir_spectre and my geo son. quick find.

Got caught in some hail and rain but still worth it

Thankyou

Thank you the coin is beautiful

Glad I didn’t go on a hot day, I can definitely imagine that there would be snakes here as warned! Tftc

Logged with [GCDroid](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gcdroid).

Thanks, nice hide. Found with Colondee.

Tftc

After a training course nearby I made a quick stop to grab this one after checking for caches in the area, noted in the logs that a TB was dropped in. This one has been marked as missing back in 2016 so it was great to see it added back in to continue its journey. Hopefully can sort out the back end details with the owner to have this added to my inventory. Is going to join Sierra and TIGROU on their journey for a while. Was on the wrong side initially but soon made the find. Thankfully no brown snakes in this weather. TFTC!

Awesome little spot. Dropped off travel bug PC2KYP

Pretty easy even for me. TFTC OZGrumpy

".::Be careful for Brown Snakes::..
Finders of this particular cache seem to encounter snakes much more often than would be normally expected.
A storm water basin near the beginning of a nice bike track that has awesome views of the airport."

You seem to be unnecessarily endangering human life. DNF and dont plan to even look.

Tftc....I also drop off the [Whiskers the Cat Travel Tag](https://coord.info/TB6Z412). This tag hadn't been moved on properly since I picked it up at the cache in which I collected it. I have messaged the person who still is shown to have it this tag in their possession. Hopefully this can be resolved soon.

Accurate coords helped me find this one and I had it in hand in less than a minute - I consider myself lucky - log signed.

[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

Nicely hidden. Paranoid about snakes but none seen this evening. . Tftc.

Great Hiding Spot Beware of Snakes No encounter with snakes today. Good Hide TFTC #Geocache Day

No snakes around today. TFTC

Cache # 1554.

This afternoon, I went to a big shopping centre in the South for business, and found this cache on my way home.

It was the second attempt. I tried it before with no success. Now, since it's on my way, I tried again.

Took several minutes to search around, cannot find the cache. Tried the other side, still nothing. When I was about to give up, I found it.

It was hidden in a reasonable spot, and covered well.

Took nothing, left nothing. Signed the log, and put it back. Covered it as well.

Thanks for the cache, Woolly_. Now I can cross it off from my DNF list.

Thanks for bringing me to this interesting spot. It was surprisingly busy – maybe because everyone is out for walk at lunchtime.

Tftc quick find after short walk from car

Quick easy find.
Bit too wet for snakes this time of year

TFTC

Planes taking off nearby a lady out in her dressing gown tipping down with rain and a cache = fab TFTC glad to be here in winter and avoiding snakes tftc

Looked for this one once before, much easier in the day TFTC

Awesome. Easy find.

Nice to cross a DNF off our list. First find of the day with CacheClosed1847. It was dark last time, and we could see why we couldn't spot it then. Nice hide in a nice setting. TFTC #229.

After a DNF on our (CachingTheJoint and I) last look, we came back in the daylight to try our luck again. This time it was a success. TFTC. #250

A quick find on a cool Sunday morning. Found while spending the weekend in Adelaide. TFTC

With a rare, of late, sunday that I'm not required at work it was time to head into the CBD and surrounds to see what I could find. This is one of a few new smilies on the map as a result.
Thought it was time for a third look here and this time, after out-waiting a dog out walking his muggle, it was a quick find and sign.
Thanks for the cache Woolly_

Looked with CachingTheJoint and Bailes01

Our 2nd DNF of the evening with CacheClosed1847 and Bailes01. The time meant it was a figure of late and we think we'll snaffle it if we come back in daylight.

Easy find good with kids. Thanks

Found with the hamokids. No snakes or lizards, left a small bubbles for the next geokid.

Found it. No snakes just 1 lizard. Thanks

Have tried this one a few times with no luck. After being alerted that it has been found recently we tried again. As per previous logs the cache is in need of repair so we have replaced the container with similar to description, new log and have placed it higher as many old logs mentioned it being soaked. Co-ords are still good for locating.

Thanks Woolly for the hide and hope you don't mind on the maintenance.

Pic showing new container, old log and new log.

I arrived in Adelaide from NZ this morning for a couple of days work. I had a few hours to spare today to headed off to find a few caches. Found this as per the recent logs. Could do with a fix up. TFTC, Biggles.

As butterflyjen mentioned, it needs maintenance.

this cache is no container at all.

A fun Sunday morning geocache outing with jc125jc. Found remnants of the cache as placed temporarily by previous geocacher. Still wondering about Figure 8.

Found with butterflyjen. We saw "suspicious log book" hidden and we checked the last login from Snap Happy which wrote that "Left under rocks near large rock at GZ." We think this is it.

The remains of this cache, missing its container, urgently needs attention.

Left on large rock**Out and about cleaning up some caches with getnict**...

*Found whilst House Sitting in Nairne*

Great company and we shared many stories and laughs throughout the day... Found on ground. It looks like this bridge is very new. Left under rocks near large rock at GZ. This one needs checking...

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment Woolly_... Appreciate your efforts...

Stamped log and returned as found...

Out collecting smiley's with Snap Happy.
It was a day filled with fun, laughter and smiles.

Find #661

Had another good look around but still no cache was revealed before the allotted time was up.
I hate rocks
Thanks for the hunt Woolly_

Out & about with hevwalker caching around the Eastern suburbs for attending an event in the evening.
It was getting warmer by now and the description about snakes made us both uncomfortable.
Still, no one was here and we searched for a good fifteen minutes before giving up.
There was quite a lot of debris and leaves near gz, thanks for the hide Woolly_

No luck today

Down this way for a xmas function and decided to try my luck again, wish i had read the previous comments about the log, made my mark the best i could.

This is find 13 from a total of 13 finds today.
This cache is also my Find 3253.

Thanks Woolly_ for the cache.

log remains staturated, and wont take ink

Found it unable to sign due to wet and soggy

Log book is completely wet and needs to be replaced. Sorry, I did not have my spares with me today.

Log book is completely wet and needs to be replaced. Was unable to sign it, so I left a small token of proof I was there. There's a yellow matchbox car in the cache if any kids are interested in swapping for it. TFTC

Nice hide, log abit wet tftc

Bit of a challenge but found it! Bit wet inside of the container just a heads up

Had a good look around but no cache was revealed before the allotted time was up and it was starting to rain.
Hopefully I'll have more luck next time.
Thanks for the hunt Woolly_

Another one done. Woo Hoo! I love the challenge of the geocache hunt - read the notes, decipher the cache requirements, and go searching for the hide. This is an amazing world-wide game of hide and seek. I love it! I also enjoy caching with my family, and meeting fellow cachers. It really is a small world when I read over cache logs. **Thanks go to Woolly_** for placing this cache and maintaining it. It's a great contribution to the Geocaching community and much appreciated.

I enjoyed finding this one at 5:43:13 PM, at night before a return flight home. Although log is totally water logged, so a photo is attached to verify the find.
TFTC! Cheers. *Jump Pilot*

no snakes, but no luck either. any more clues please?

Didn't find it

Was drift triking in the area around the bridge with a mate and decided to try find it again and came across it, all soggy so engraved my name on the back

Relatively easy find as almost out in the open. Quite waterlogged due to recent rains as container has hole in the lid.

Have spent a bit of time looking for this one and glad to be able to cross it off my list. I was told it was in a different type of location by a previous finder but he found it before the bridge went in meaning I was searching further afield than I was supposed to. TNLNSL TFTC.

Found fairly quickly but then kept my head down as a muggle family rode by me. Thanks Wooly.

Out with Trigg famm and nycce. Inc for a few night caches! TFTC

Tftc

Nice little out of the way spot for a cache.
TFTC Woolly. TNLNSL. Find #1508 [^]

No snakes today thankfully and good coords. Thanks Woolly_

(Shrek: "Doooonkey!") There was a "Donkey" lenticular swap card within this easy find. Found at 16:55 on Wed. 6 April 2016. Contents are dry and in good condition. There was no pencil so I added one seeing it fits No snakes today seeing it was about 15oC at the time. SL TNLN TFTC Woolly
