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 https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56

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.

No note earlier because nothing has changed.
GZ is fenced off due to on-going road construction, has been so for long time; and therefore unavailable to any new cache even if this one were archived. Note I am keeping an eye on this and other disabled cache locations, along the freeway cycle path, with aim to replace & re-enable as soon as is practical.

This portion of bike path is closed until December, due to construction...

Will maintain cache and make available once path re-opens.

This container is in my safe hands, and will be returned once bike path is re-opened, due in December.

Appears from Sept 24 through to December this will be temporarily inaccessible...

Decided to use the beautiful day to knock off some of the periodic table series, that has long been on my to do list.

Quick find here. Cheers!

A nice quick one again All ok tftc

We have made it our mission to complete the current souvenir challenge, so today decided to make a long walk up the freeway to collect as many of these caches in this series as possible. Nice quick find, log signed and cache replaced as found. TFTC

Out and about with Neva2old to continue on the periodical table as well as others close by, another productive day today and smilies were added TFTC

Met up here with Parkacruz after I had finished of a series by Granett that was nearby. Had to do a little car shuffling so we could have one at the start and one at the end of todays caching, happy to say that we managed the periodic series and few others close by with no dnf's. So another productive day. tftc

Out for another cycle so saw some caches along the way which made for easy stops. Thanks

Quick find.TFTC

#13 for today

Find number 3 for today. Exactly where it should be. Tftc

Hidden a nice quiet spot thanks!

We found this one open with log exposed. Signed the log, reassembled the cache and rehid where we found it.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thought we'd take advantage of the nice autumn day today and make a start on this series. We had to watch out for packs of older cyclists in yellow jerseys, some of who were a bit rude! We also found that most of our DNF's were located in areas where Muggles tend to walk the path. It was a good day out which started out with us riding from our home to Warnbro Station and getting off at Bull Creek where we rode to Mt Henry Bridge to start from the beginning. We then rode to Cockburn Central collecting finds along the way and decided to stop here as the GeoKids were a combination of hangry and tired. Had something to eat (at 4pm!) and jumped on the train back to Warnbro Station. Our caching ride took us 4 hours. We had 29 and 7 DNF . We will endeavour tackle the next part once the the kids can be convinced to go out again LOL! Thank you for the series!

Quick find. Tftc

Found on second attempt on morning ride. Tftc

See Hydrogen (1) - Periodic Table - for main log.

Heute haben wir mit der Perioden Tabelle angefangen. Gemeinsam mit dem Team_GAME haben wir mit Argon begonnen und endeten unsere Tour mit Stromium. Alle Dosen konnten gut gefunden werden.
Danke für diesen Abschnitt sagen wir mit 1 FP.

Decided to get energetic today and get some smileys on the infamous Periodic Table Caches! Headed out early with Reborn995 and began a four hour walk along the Highway finding caches left right and center with only a couple of unfortunate DNF’s along the way! We had managed to find our 600th Cache during the adventure too, which was awesome! All in all it was a great day with perfect weather and lots of smileys!!! Thanks For The Caches!!!

Thank you! Decided to start the Periodic Table series today, and ended up riding from Canning Bridge station to Cockburn station. Found this one without too much trouble.

Tftc

Today it is not too hot, so we are able to ride with the bicycle along the Highway. We can nearly find all the caches in few minutes.
Thank you for all caches say Moorhelmi

Scandium spider. TFTC.

Enjoyed the walk and another of your Smileys. TFTC

Out for some geotherapy after a hard week at work. Dropped the wife at work and planned to clear a few more spots from the map.

Took a little,walk along the freeway to clear a few of this trail. All caches were easily found

BlaKids. SVKR_WA found your cache on 6 September 2016. This find brings our finds count to 1520

We have signed the log and replaced the hide as found.

Thanks for bringing us to this place.

Easy find

Nabbing these because Roe 8 seems to be not so far away and I think these will all go missing when it does! TNLNSL TFTC

Easy bangers make it harder

I have been looking at the periodic table series of caches for some time now. Since I have decided to complete a challenge I need the numbers hence the reason for the run today. I took the day off work and co=opted a couple of fellow cachers, Lazarus_68 and Dezzabills. I thought a couple of days would finish the series off, So today we set off early on our pushbikes with the idea of completing as many as we could manage. As it turns out we made it all the way to the end. We were very fortunate to find the caches quicker than expected. So to sum up the day we found 117 caches in the periodic table and a couple of extras along the way giving me a grand total of 119 for the day. Not bad if I say so myself, and surprisingly there were no DNF's so all in all a great day. The ride down from home in Como took us 6 hours and 58 minutes. While my fellow cachers took the train home I toughed it out and rode home in just over 2 hours. We stopped several times down and back for a break and a bite to eat to refuel the bodies.

This was the 22th find of 119 for the day and was found at 9:51AM Thanks BlaKids/loubla for the cache. hhheddy

Happened to be cycling past and noticed cache container out in open near path! Moved it back to its designated hiding place.

TFTC

Found Scandium (21). TFTH BlaKids.

Out enjoying a bike ride down alongside the freeway. Interesting seeing so many test tubes, and for most part easy finds. TFTC series!!

Easy find
TFTGC

TYFTC, its in good condition! thanks.

We are on a mission to reach 2999 before the Leap Year event in a week's time and needed 50 caches, so decided to hit the Periodic power trail and see how many we could get done in the time available. We were fortunate to have a cool day with an occasional refreshing mist / drizzle which made the cycling a pleasant experience for a February day. Made it from Mt Henry bridge to Cockburn Central in the time allotted so we were well pleased with our efforts.
We found the series in good repair with only 1 broken container and 1 full log which unfortunately we didn't have spares today. Will carry some when we do the next stage south.
Thanks BlaKids & LouBla for an enjoyable morning's caching .

Thanks for the cache BlaKids [^] - we made the find and the cache was in good order and the log dry .

This was find # 22 of 40 and 0 today giving us a total cache count of 2972.

Thank you

Heading out today to get a few on Australia Day before the heat sets in. Nice walk to this location with the geodog. TFTC!

A quick find of a cache which was AWOL on my previous visit. TFTC

Cool cache.

Up in Perth for a week from Albany, this trail was number one on the list of things to do. Starting in Perth and riding south we managed to find most caches in the series with only 4 that we couldn't find! We had some test tubes of our own which we replaced with some of the more broken containers but unfortunately didn't have enough to replace them all. Thanks for the epic series guys and also for maintaining them so well!

Tftc

On holidays from SA staying with Yangebup Mick , Had previously done the middle section , Was dropped off down south and Picked up at the Leach Hwy , Thanks for the fun BlaKids

Thank you

Originally found under family caching name clan-wallace, now re logging under own name.

Just noticed that this one had been replaced so we cheated & drove to a side street where we could walk onto the cycle path & turn this frown upside down. TFTC

I have been wanting to come down here for a ride and tackle some of this series for a while now. And I just got the chance to come down here today. There were 2 Did Not Find's today and 21 Finds. This cache was one of the finds. Most caches were found easily with the odd one or two hard ones.
BlaKids, I found your cache ' Scandium (21) - Periodic Table' today. It was the thirteenth of 21 finds and is my busiest day so far. The cache was found in a good condition so I replaced it as I found it. Thanks For The Cache.

Yep, the cache was gone. Have replaced it with a newie. Happy Hunting.

This one has definitely gone.

Yep gone

The one and only DNF for today.
If we are right we found the hide but it seems the container was muggled.
We will try it another time

Fail for me

GPS would not settle. The Mrs won't be happy with a DNF but I just can't find it.

Given a whole day to go caching in Perth the inner scientist in Freddo could not resist the geeky awesomeness of a Periodic Table PT. With bicycle supplied by .K.B. I travelled by train to Kwinana and folllowed the trail of elements from one end to the other. The cache finds ranged from seen as I arrived, to hides that have me looking for twice the 3 minutes I had allowed. Some caches were replaced. A few caches were unfound and will stand as DNF's.
I know these elements. My job as a metallurgist means that I deal with a large portion of the common 92 at work. There was a sense of pride reeling them off. And then there was the joy of cruising along on a bike on a beautiful winter day that actually feels like an Indian summer.
-------------------------------------------------------------
This cache was found using a Garmin GPSr, Montana 650t, Oregon 550 or Dakota 20. Waypoints and paperless geocaching downloaded via GSAK 8.
-------------------------------------------------------------

Public holiday I couldn't resist some more caching so back to the periodic table I head all good here for number 9

Day fifty seven of the WA road trip with BettyBoo3747.
We loaded up the deadly treadlies after dropping the car off for it's service in Fremantle and hit the Periodic Table Series trail at Bull Creek. We worked our way south until we came to where we had finished up a month ago (about #66), then jumped the train at Kwinana for the trip back to Bull Creek. We then completed the last four elements heading north to Perth.
Unfortunately a large collection of DNFs, and one replacement container, and a few replacement logs.
Lovely day for a ride though, and (apart from the DNFs) loved the trail.
Thanks, Robmc.

# 8220. Day 2 of our week in Fremantle and Rob's car is in for a service at Melville. We decided to try to finish off the Periodic Table series that we started in late April, by riding down the trail to Kwinana Station and catching the train back to Bull Creek Station before riding back to the Ford Dealer. It turned out to be a 38km day, not altogether successful with 57 smilies and frustratingly, 10 DNFs.

We replaced a couple of logs and one container, but some of the other logs have got rather damp and are looking mouldy and a big time-worn although generally there are plenty of spots left for signing.

Thanks BlaKids

Back again to have a shot at the first 40 caches in this series

My goal is to get my 1000 before the holidays end and this made a good imapct on it.

Started at Yttrium at 7.30, 2 1/2 hours later I finished at Horcruxes caches at 11am.
40 Finds in hand and 3 DNFs

Most being easy finds. A couple of hunts took some time but all in all a great morning.

Thanks BlaKids and loubla for this awesome series.
Sorry about the generic logs but its hard to remember all of them in a power trail.

After failing at Swizzle Stick Roe, I got some consolation a little further down the trail.

Took new coord average while replacing the cache.

I had some spare time this morning so I decided to jump on the bike and see how far south I could ride. I got as far as Russell Road which is a record for me. I took a more leisurely pace on the way back, find some freeway caches and incidental munzees along the way. Tftc

Doing cache maintenance today so had a look at this one. Couldn't find any sign of the cache so replaced it with new one. Happy hunting.

After the storm I went out to grab some more caches of this serie. I found most of them. Thx!

Danee44 and I continued our walk along the freeway today to pick up another section of the periodic tables caches. A 5km walk in just under an hour. A great start to the day without a DNF.

Again, all caches were found spot on with co-ords. Thanks again for this series.


I'm Looking forward to meeting other geocachers at WA GOES BIG IN 2015, in Busselton.

BlaKids I found your cache Scandium (21) - Periodic Table on 20/01/2015 5:50 am. This is my find #2615 and find #9 today. The cache is in good shape. Thanks for the cache!

Tftc

Found on an early morning bike ride. I'm knocking these off one by one. This one, as others have said, is no longer in a tube, but is under a rock and prone to getting wet (should it ever rain again in Perth). Thanks for the cache.

Will be doing a maintenance run soon to fix this & a few others with problems. Hold tight, will get there before it rains...

No tube. Just a log covered by wood.

Easy find but the tube was missing. TFTC

Found the logbook without a tube. Put it between a rock and wood

great
