Swanport Series - Swanport Bridge & Wetlands Long Flat, South Australia, Australia

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.

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.

Are you serious that this cache still hasn't been replaced or archived since we were here over 12 months ago?

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

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

----------

I notice from one or more log entries that this cache would seem to be in need of some help - **there appears to be a need for owner intervention.**

Therefore, the cache is being temporarily disabling so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

The guidelines indicated that regular visits to check on the cache, as well as prompt attention to any logs that indicate there is a problem, are part of the [**cache owners responsibilities.**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance) I cannot see any log that indicates a recent visit by the CO to this cache.

If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to [**Disable it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=235) - I have Disabled it for you this time.

**Can you please respond to this situation (or indicated your intention) by 5th August,** so others know exactly what is happening with this cache?

You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:

- Repair and/or Replace your cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the praises.

- If you don't plan on fixing it up then please [**Archive it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56) so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

- If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (by 5th August). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, it is likely that I will need to Archive it on the basis that it has been abandoned. Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then.

Please don't send me an email but instead follow the instructions posted above.

Revisited this again, 3rd visit and still no luck even after getting clarification from a friend I was looking in the right spot. Maybe a check by owner might be needed.

Wondering whether you could please check on this cache? Thanks.

We tried and couldn’t find it

Need maintenance ASAP

Didn’t find it

No luck

Didn't find it.

Dnf - coincidence that last finder October 16?

Argh! Cloud cover sent me to the wrong sign!

Had to be stealth as there were muggles in the area

Cool! Nice quick find

TFTC

Tftc. Nice find. Never been here before but will come again in better weather to do the walk.

Bloody nanos, spawn of satan! All nanos should be destroyed and the factory too!!! And if course we would try to find a nano at night!!!!!!! However, it was actually fairly easy to find in the end TFTC 24/04/2016 8:54 pm Find #1269

I have had this one on the list for a long time. I finally found a way to get there.

Thanks shellybobbob for the cache

Found 8:34:59 AM, on our trip home from a long weekend in Adelaide.

TNLN, thanks shellybobbob (F=291 H=4).

Tftf love this spot but some low life has dumped rubbish everywhere

TFTC after a pleasant wetlands stroll.

A lovely afternoon caching with my sister, niece & geodog, Mandy around Murray Bridge. We thought we had the right sign but when we followed the GPS we saw another one off in the distance. Yep more long grass. TFTC shellybobbob

A nice easy find to make up for the dnf nearby.

All good with the cache.

TFTC

Easy little nano find.

Success! I admit this is the first tiny nano we have found!! Geokids were impressed. Thanks!

On our trip trough Australia with the hole family we looked also for some caches. They often showed us places we would never had discovered. Thanks a lot to all the people who care about this lovely hobby .

Found on our final way to Melbourne.
Like this nano!

Greetings from Switzerland .

Found on a late might of caching. Tftc.

Today is day one of our trip away. We set off to Berri to spend 3 days caching the Riverland area, joined by earthlight and Gwen from The X-Trailers. This was a good opportunity to find (or DNF) caches while trialling out our new tent and camping accessories, gearing up for when we head off to the QLD Mega at the end of March. We started out in temperatures of 38ºc before that first evening brought light showers, although not enough to dull the 41ºc temp for day two. Day three was a much nicer day as the day cooled down to a nice 28ºc. We managed 200+ finds on this trip. On day two we found caches in 3 states in 1 day being SA, VIC & NSW, that was quite a highlight. No snakes were spotted, guess it was too hot for them but we had one roo bound slowly across the road in front of us. Next trip back here will be with the boat, there are plenty of river caches to hunt for and of course all the ones we didn't have time for. It was a fabulous weekend away. We made a quick find here and 4 sailing boats behind the reeds looked like one big ship coming down the river as they were all evenly spaced, log sheet was full so we dropped a new log sheet in there. TFTC

Nice easy find on a 3 day caching trip
Took tbs for a visit

A quick find with 3LG and Gwen from the x-trailers.

#4185

We'd celebrated New Years in Murray Bridge with Mrs C's brother and his family and the nephews wanted to go caching so we decided to grab a few in the local area.

There were a few people camping along the bank nearby but no one near GZ. We used the car as a screen and soon had the cache in hand. Master 6 and 3 call the pontoon here the "floating brick".

TFTC shellybobbob

There were two options and messy61 informed me that she was pretty sure that it was at her spot. My reply: "Really? That's interesting because it's over here!" Cache 2,047. Found with Gnomio2007, StuntyPanda2006, DoubleHelixClan and messy61.

Found with Crane2, StunkyPanda2006 and Gnomeo2007. TFTC

The most adorable geocache yet.

Bloody Nanos! Spawn of satan. Burn down the Nano factory, and exterminate anyone who sells Nanos.

Out to do a few night caches on our way into Adelaide, this little one was near by so it got included.

Although it was a good cache to start the night with. SL TFTC

Out for the evening with Sylken to bag a couple of night caches and anything else that happened along our path we enjoyed the area that this was hidden in. The night sounds in the wetlands made a fantastical soundtrack for a Halloween night caching adventure

TFTC

We had come to the wetlands in the company of geodaughter KAROPI to attempt the nearby night cache.

With the use of a couple of good torches we made the find. We loved the look of this area in the dark and will try to come back during daylight to enjoy the wetlands. The sound of all the frogs was amazing

Many thanks for the hide shellybobbob[^][^][^]

Good hide. Out bird watching with Ellie in the wetland.

After taking a couple of minutes to find out how to access this reserve area, accurate coordinates led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks for the cache shellybobbob.

Not bad! Put trackable fork lift near

Tiny! Good one!

TFTC it's teeny

Omg it's tiny!!!! This was an awesome find love the spot and the kids learnt a lot finding this one

Found as a part of TheKellyGang, writing this as a genaric log as I was a part of TheKellyGang and am now out on my own.
If you do not agree with this you are more than welcome to delete the log.

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

WOOOOOO HOOOOO 100th find yay!! Awesome find! TFTC

Enjoyed drive the car along to GZ, and quick spotted the cache and signed the log. OMG under the bridge wow... Thanks shellybobbob

Team T.I.N.S at the oz mega. Thank you for all the caches giving us a tour around town

An easy find. There's nothing like making you feel that you're at home in the Sydney CBD than finding a nano container in the bush.

Freaky in the dark

Nice little hide to sign on our way out after doing local night cache. Unfortunately couldn't enjoy the views in the dark, but still enjoyed this secret spot. TFTC

I am enjoying my morning out caching and have met a lot of teams especially since the Mega virtually finished lat night. Still many cars around with flags flapping in the breeze. Parked safely at this one and was a quick find. T shellybobbob

Nice easy find on a night out caching with some fellow cachers. TFTC shellybobbob.

Out for a few late night caches with Locus Cache and RideTheGeoWalrus. A quick pick up on the way past. TFTC

Found while doing some night caching with Kiara001, the lost wanderers and The three field mice. TFTC shellybobbob

Found during the OZ Mega. Thanks for the cache.

#55 of 85 on our trip to Oz Mega 2014 in Murray Bridge.

After the clean up we came under the bridge for two finds. This was the easy first one.

TFTC.

TFTC, full log to follow.

Replaced cache. As I was notified magnet lost. Happy caching

A very quick find with Team Canary- took longer to extract the log than to find it.

A quick find. Nice area. TFTC.

Day 3 of the Oz Mega Event, and I was trying for 10 different cache types in a day. This one didn't turn out to be too hard to find.

My thanks to shellybobbob for the cache.

Out with Noctis77 and Lilypily. Noctis spotted the little blighter first. Good to see a fresh log here.
TFTC

Here for Oz Mega, it was weird finding caches in this reserve as I went here with a friend as part of a science club when I was about 9, there are photos all over the family computer of us here, it was nostalgic coming here 5 years later!

Very small! Better watch out they don't cement it in! Surprisingly no- one was about, but that soon changed lol! TFTC

Found it during our night caching with the Burtons and DISK during the OZ MEGA EVENT 2014.

Thanks for another great opportunity to see Murray Bridge.tftc

A nice wetland area, and a nice new log sheet! TFTC

Well that was tiny! And dark. In the dark...
tftc
At the OzMega 2014 event, with geosons Timotatus and Sebastbat.

After initially dnf-ing - and figuring it was missing because we were in the company of Winterdragon who had previously found it, we had another go after walking around the wetlands because we saw other cachers at GZ... who just happened to be the owners replacing the cache, so very fortuitous and lovely to meet you too!

Another quick find for the night. TFTC

Finally! !!! Ayer a few backwards and forwards, found the workload before having to go over the bridge. ..

Found with Ahomburg, SedgwickDave, Spladem as well as C&H, AliJ, º, Ali J and Jacimarble whilst in the area for the Mega, Thanks for the cache and an awesome weekend roadtrip away..

The Mega was upon us and the roadtrip was on in full swing..

We had alot of fun whilst in the area for the Mega,

Thanks Shelly Bob Bob for the cache and an awesome weekend roadtrip away..

We had alot of fun scrambling all around here looking for this caches..

Sorry all for the generic well over due logging of these caches..

Visiting this area to find the resident Mulgewongk, Dennis52 informed us that there was another cache here so JJ52 and I did a quick detour to find it before heading off back home to the showgrounds.

TFTC shellybobbob!

Found while in Murray Bridge for the Oz Mega 2012.
We decided to do a couple of other caches nearby so we swung by to grab this one first.
The hint had eluded us for a while, and we couldn't see it. We started to widen our search and found the cache somewhere else in a manner that we didn't expect to see.
In the end we got our names in and gained another smilie. Thanks for the fun 'shellybobbob'

Found it.

This cache took a minute or two to locate because we were looking for something else, I guess. In the end I suppose it was obvious though. Just got it rehidden when a few more geo-vehicles came tearing into the car park, probably scaring the bejeezus out of the muggle parked under the bridge. TFTC!!!
