I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore the cache or communication from the cache owner Maddndad requesting additional time, within the time frame requested in the last reviewer note, and it appears that the cache has been abandoned.

###Cache Owner Action Needed###
This cache has been brought to my attention as likely to be missing.
After a string of successful Finds, it has now had a string of DNFs. I agree that this certainly suggests that something has happened at the cache location which requires investigation by the CO.

The cache will be disabled and I'll check back in 4 weeks to see if either

- the CO has checked or rectified the apparent problem
- the CO has communicated in a Note log here, when action will be taken

**If the CO has not taken either of these actions, then we can only assume that the cache has been abandoned and, regrettably, it will be archived.**

The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.

Thank you

It would help if I knew what I was looking for

not there i think

Definitely gone walkabout, previous photos confirm exact location and it's not here

Couldn't find this one, maybe next time. Beautiful spot!

DNF

Did not find
Think it has been taken.

We found the rocks but no geo.

Found this on one of my favourite tracks in Broome. A little bit off the beaten path, but not much. Look for rocks!

What a case. A real thriller. Beware the spiky bushes and the weird bat.

Bit creepy.......

Bit too easy someone placed a bright blue water bottle next to it but fun nice walk

Easy

After a short night in Perth the tour started that took me all the way up to Broome. During the long hours of driving I, unfortunately, had no wifi so therefore no chance to log all the caches I found en route. I do that now and must admit that I don't remember all the details. However, whenever I had the chance during our stops I found some and had a good time searching for them. Thanks to all the owners who made this possible.

Found during my trip north. TFTC.

We found the container which is wet inside and not seal anymore. Therefore we decided to place a new one right at the original. We didn't want to remove it, since the logs are still readable.

We found the damaged box and the wet logbook. We placed another new container right between with a dry logsheet.

Great to have a cache placed at this iconic beach. Cache log is very damp but it is so hot the paper dried in the short time I had it out. Needs attention following the fire. Thanks for placing.

Container has melted from a recent fire on one corner and water is getting in. A 200ml systema would do it if the next cacher is prepared.

Found it on our 2019/2020 holiday trip through Western Australia.

TFTC,

Hard work in 34 degree heat in the middle of the day. Haha! But found it!! Cheers!

I was doing a road trip from Darwin to Perth and found this cache along the way. Thanks.

Cache blindness for me today

Kurz vor dem Sonnenuntergang diesen Cache gefunden. Wunderschön hier am cable beach. Tftc

Travelled here from Canada for an Australian circumnavigation cruise. One day only in Broome so hiked in here after a terrific day to watch an incredible sunset. Thanks for putting one here and increasing our enjoyment of the area.

Quick and easy find! Thanks mate!

Nice easy find on a sunny Broome day!

Today our tour - which began in Perth, WA , and led us thru Western, Northern and Southern Australia back to Perth, was simply driving from Port Hedland to Broome.


On the way we came to some interesting locations. Here we searched, found and logged this Tradi-Cache.

Weather was good in the morning and it should even get better during the day.

Thanks to 'Madkel' for showing us this location, for the fun we had with 'Cable Beach stroll' and the smiley. The search here and today didn't take too much time, fortunately.

Greetings from Germany and we hope to see you soon in the forest, prairie, desert or outback .

From 23.09 until 24.11.2019 Stadibast and I spent our holidays in Australia.
During the first four weeks we drove with a camper van from Darwin to Perth along the West coast and its amazing national parks, in which we made several hiking tours.
After that we flew to the wonderful green Tasmania for a roundtrip lasting two weeks.
For the last three weeks we went back to the continent and followed the South-East-Coast from Melbourne to Sydney.
We had impressive nine weeks in Australia, in which we hiked through various national parks, visited interesting sights and met many friendly and helpful people.
Thanks to all owners for setting and maintaining their caches.

Fast find

Tftc. A night time find, so no chance of muggles around.

Good cache, took a little while to find it though. Plenty of muggles.

A quick find after climbing the dunes from the beach. Had to wait for some muggles to pass, the container is a bit melted but otherwise all ok. Such a beautiful beach, we loved our holiday to Broome. TNLNSL TFTC

On a bike tour of town today trying to keep the costs low! Geocaching is such a great activity for yhe kids to keep them interested on the longer bike rides.

15/9/19 Debbie good hide!

Found while visiting from Canberra. I came before breakfast and found it pretty quickly. I had just got back to the track when some muggles arrived. TFTC

TFTC.

Took me a while to narrow the GZ but then it was a quick find.
The container is ok-ish, as soon as it start raining it will get very damaged.
I took a TB to travel to Sydney with me

Travel bobble dropped off

Yeah, it's a lil bit melted. But TFTC anyway!

Pretty quick find, although as the previous cacher noted. The small container has melted at one end. Signed the log and closed. Replaced as found and put the token back inside. It won’t be waterproof once the rains come. Another gorgeous location. TFTC

Found it again and picked up a bug

Looks like the plastic container has been a little melted in a small fire. I had to break the seal to open it. It closed ok but will not be watertight again. Should be ok until wet season...

In Broome for a bit of a rest after doing the GRR and it was nice to be driving around on bitumen for a bit.
I’m loving it up here especially coming from Melbourne.
I picked a good time to look for this one as it was nice and quiet.
A nice walk along the sandy track and I soon added my name to the log.
Dropped off a TB and picked up 2 to help them on their way.
Also left a PT for the next finder.
Thanks Madkel TFTC.

Tftc
Dropped off a couple of bugs

Found it thank you! First one on our journey

Fabulous view. Somewhat smaller than description suggested but still easy find that was made easier by a log photo. Wonderful views from this highpoint. Tftc

Found it!!

What a beautiful sight and such a change from Cold Canberra winter. Tftc

Nice stroll up to the cache site and lovely view of Cable Beach. TFTC.

Picked up TB Night King.

Killer views!
Thanks for the cache!

Beautiful View of cable Beach. Dropped off the night king trackable.

Took the track to gz then a small goat track which goes into scrub about 3-4 mts. No difficulty locating the sistema. Beautiful views from here and no muggles to avoid.

Circled around the trail until we found it. Amazing view!

Hello from England! After touring the Gibb River Road and exploring the amazing Bungle Bungles, we are now in Broome for some r&r. Today we had a fab swim on beautiful cable beach, after walking along to this cache. We circled both sides of the path before finding. Great view! TFTC [10349]

Flew into Broome at lunch time and about 5 hours of daylight to get some caching done and some quick sightseeing. Stopped by here and did the long walk along the sandy track as i wanted to grab as many caches as i could. found this cache very quickly. TFTC Maddndad and thanks for bringing me here..

I was a bit put off by the DNF’s here but the finds in the middle made me think it was well hidden not missing.

30 mins examining leaf piles, falling sand hills, grass tussocks and I finally found it. (Pretty close to the coordinates). I’ve put it back and hopefully left a clue for the next searcher (if you know what to look for). TFTC

I had a good look around, I don't believe it is there anymore

Couldn’t find.

Had a good look around between muggles coming along the path, no luck sadly

Spent a while didn't find it.

Owner needs to check on it

Tricky with the GPS not settling ... but we found it in the end. TFTC

No luck luck with this one. Will try again when maintenance is done

Searched however can see no sign of the cache. This is the 3rd DNF logged for this cache in a row.

Sadly for us a DNF.

Little Squirell

Searched for an hour no luck hps said it was there but no it wasn't tyfc.

TFTC had to come back a second time but finally found it. GPS was swing around a bit but an overall fun find. Thanks again!

Quick morning stroll to Cable beach before it gets too hot. Took a little while to make the find as there are so many options. But eventually decided the GPS was settling and it was spotted.

Two of us had a long look in good light but had to give up because the sunset waits for no one. Left the kids splashing and came back up for another look and this time, in the darkness, managed to find it quickly! By touch alone, though...co-ords are great but it had been left really well hidden. Ready to be found again a bit quicker next time, hopefully! Took the TB to move on. TFTC in a pretty special spot.

Reasonably easy find. Dropped off a trackable

Easy find with a few scratches on my legs. TFTC!

Nice stroll, but then wasn't sure which path to take. Finally reached GZ but GPS was all over the place. Scratched around for a while on both sides of the track without success, except for another scratch on my leg.

My legs will curse you later - but the view is worth it. TFTC

Could not find it!

Not easy to find. But the coordinates are very precise. So I found it after about 20 minutes of seeking. Only one muggle dog dusturbing me. Marvellous Beach! Thanks for the Cache!
Out Travelbug!

We made this cache way to hard for ourselves, this was our 3rd attempt, if it wasn't for the DDTs from Tassie finding it we may not have gone back today, it was right there all along at GZ. TFTC on a road trip from Tassie

I was a bit worried about whether this one would reveal itself, given the various DNF logs, but after finding the other nearby cache I ventured to this one, accompanied by a muggle dog ignoring its owner for part of the way. The cache did not immediately reveal itself, but when I spotted it, I thought well, it’s almost out in the open! It was very near the place my gps indicated was closest to gz and didn’t really have much covering, but was still well hidden! No need to go into any scrub, which was good. I would call the cache small rather than regular, but guess that could be a matter of perspective. Took nothing. TFTC

We looked high and low around down and under , got sratched legs and become dehydrated. I question the size the difficulty and the terrain. Thanks for bringing us to such a lovely view

Have tried on numerous occasions to find this without success. GPS very unstable. Would love to locate this one before leaving this beautiful place if anyone can help me out

The GPS was very unstable and I had searched in quite a few places including quite close to where Lyn eventually found it. All I came away with was a scratched leg - fortunately not too much blood!! We left a trackable - Ixalan. Our first find in Broome. TFTC

Found by the ‘Gregparquin’ family on holiday from Melbourne. Strolled along the beach until we reached the path. Love Cable Beach. Ellen, Michael, Anne, Michelle, Wes, Artie and Ned

This was my 3rd attempt to find this cache. My GPS jumps all over the place... Can anyone give me a clue???? I would like to find this one before I leave Broome. Many thanks.

Took a while with the gps moving around a lot - thanks

No luck here, too many brambles.

I had been standing next to it all along. Previous hits helped. Thank you.

Nice view. Left a toy in an egg from QLD and took an Aussie Track Me

Staggered up the hill avoiding muggles and their dogs. Looked high and low and nearly gave up, but had a bit more of a look -spied it! Thanks for the cache.

Beautiful view.

A nice little morning stroll while spending some time in the lovely part of the world.
TFTC.

I had a couple of goes at this guy buy still did locate the cache.

Out adventuring with MY4B and Megawat60. We had just said lets DNF this, turned around and spotted it. The cache is smaller than i expected but still a relief to find. TFTC

Looked high and low without success. Widened our search to no avail. Has the cache gone?
Nice walk and nice view of Cable Beach. Thanks for your cache.

I'm sure it wasn't there, but I've been known to be wrong before.

The Big Western Australia trip in 2018. Day 19. I drove down to Broome early to go on an afternoon cruise, but that was canceled due to wind, so caching kept me busy all day until I finished at sunset on Cable Beach.

I spent ages up on top of this dune. I even spoke to a local who pointed out where he saw it last. I hope it was there somewhere, but I did not manage a find.

Thanks.
