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.

Not often I do this but hate having green squares left so a fourth visit was had and if there is a cache there I will do the proverbial eat my hat. This definitely needs archiving.

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.

Appears AWOL

Tried an early morning find and nothing, sat and read logs from previous finders and it is definitely not there anymore, has it been shifted, what has happened, suggest CO goes take a look at it.

This log is really full and does need replacing for the benifit of future cachers.

Found it and replaced it where it was hidden Log full but found small space to write initials only TFTC

Flukey find, hat a clue from recent logs.
TFTC

Found at 1:13 PM GAFF2.
Found it lying on the ground. Placed it at the base of the pole in the ground.
Thanks Computer Man's.

Found with GeoHubby, on a rainy day while visiting Yamba. TFTC

Needs a new log as this is now full.

15:50. Good camo but a quick find. As previously noted the log is wet and overfull. TFTC

Should just have written here, sorry, posted explaination already

Lucky find, as was laying in the grass! (It's a micro!) So, where to put it back??
It needs replacing, the log is wet, and full, so can't write on anymore, we found last spot! Geo-hubby found a likely spot where it may have come from, but wont last, not sticky enough...and the electricals are exposed, so a technician will be out there soon I expect, to fix on pole.

Found today on tour of area by geohusband. Tricky. After he saw it he asked me if I needed to use his coke bottle thick glasses. Huh I don't think so. TFTC

Sneaky little catch!

So hard! Look veryyyy closely

failed in the search here and was surprised when a fairly large roo was coming straight for the bridge I was on and only at the last minute decided to go through the creek instead thankfully . It was either him or me LOL Cheers 4 Now

Found today. Not sure how it's still sitting in its position! Tftc

Found yesterday with my sister, first for my stay in the area. No pencil but have a photo as proof if required.

Tricky little find . Super small treasure.

Nice

Very tiny - great cache

Sneaky lil one

Tftc

Definitely not what was expected. Sneaky hide

Should've brought a pen as this is an XS sized cache. TFTC

Found with Maggs2005, CachingPikachu and TheGeoSnake. TFTC

Very clever t4tc

It was dark. Luckily, JaffaJ brought a torch. Almost gave up but a shift in the galactic positions of the coordinates had us give a final check. Very cool and secretive hide. Found with JaffaJ, Maggs2005 and TheGeoSnake. TFTC

Found with JaffaJ, CachingPikachu and TheGeoSnake. Evening find after a pause to apply insect repellent as the mossies were fierce. Lovely little hide. TFTC

Found with JaffaJ, CachingPikachu and Maggs2005 after a dinner at the Pacific Hotel and then ice cream from the Yamba Icecreamery. I did the mozzie dance to the car as the mozzies were fierce and I dashed to get mozzie repellent. JaffaJ was the one with the eagle eyes and the caching gods looking upon him as he spotted this tricky hide. It was much smaller then I imagined. I liked this one as geo-snakes like to slither. TFTC Computer Man's!!

Dodgy wiring indeed. Thanks Computer Mans

Hidden in plain sight. TFTC with Weebindi, Assisters123, and Maplemoor claiming his first cache.

First find.

Good find for our first one. Dont over think ita location.

Clever!!

Beware the dodgy wiring.

My first cache. Hope they don't get smaller. TFTC computer mans.

Found it got to look hard

While staying in the area we picked this cache up. A quick find.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

TFTC Found by oneyeandbag. We love these sneaky little hides.

Good one. SL. TFTC.

Only had half the info in my mind about the exact location so of course my wife found this one. Indeed very small ; in fact as small as i have seen before , but this one is san magnets but still sticking around.

Very small indeed.

All aok with the cache ! very quite on sunday morning ,couple of line markers muggles on the fields...

Think this one is missing! Was nice to explore tho.

Maybe gone

Out and about in the area today with an old friend DanteMc for a little caching and catchup.
We spent most of the day around the region and had lunch at Yamba.
Then we made our way back to northern NSW.
Thanks to all CO's for some great caches, a couple of DNF's, a couple that seem to be missing but a great day overall. Almost 30 finds in total.
Like others before us we think this one is missing.
Can the CO please check?

I detoured out to the sports grounds for a poke around for a cache
Alas I found nothing here !!

I guess it might have gone ?
Who knows ?
It did not look like this area flooded too badly !!

I'm afraid that the previous storm took it away

4180. Found by baby&Mrs gopher at 1330. TFTC. SL in the only available space we could find. Tnx Computer Man's

TFTC The log was full so I was unable to sign.

Cache needs replacing thread damaged log sheet full/wet

Found after quite a search as we were looking for a larger container than was hidden. (See cache size) . that said cache camo is wearing off and log wet and full. (Future cachers remember to use insect repellent before attempting this)

Found it!! Thanks!! Camo definitely needs to be redone!

Very good hide took a while but still found it
TNLN

"Gotcha" Had to put some thought into this one but finally worked it out. Thank goodness as the mozzies were carrying us away.

A 'little' bit sneaky. TFTC

Looked high and low finally found it. Well done

No room on log, camo is scratched a bit

The log sheet was out of room to write on. Good cache. Thanks.

TFTC log needs replacing

The camouflage on the cache alright.

Was about to go off the beaten track when I rethought the name. Spotted the black and used Gonz-rat snr as retrieval device. Camo coming off but still effective. Found a tiny blank space on log to sign and replaced cache. 3rd for the clan and for the day.

Took some searching and almost gave up but reading the logs helped to put us in the right direction..TFTC

Prepare the insect spray! There are cruel keepers of this cache!

I think it may have been muggled by the cane toads!

Log is totally full and had to write over another faded log.

Our last cache for our stay in Yamba. I had to call in the big guns for this one (Mrs Browngang) because I had just about given up, what with the kids sitting in the car patiently waiting to start to 4.5 hour drive home to Bonny Hills. After Mrs BG pulled the power cover off before I could say anything I walked over for another look. Ah ha, there it is hiding in plain sight. Thanks Computer Man's and cheers from Browngang

Short walk from my accommodation to blow the cobwebs after a day at conference. I agree very small, and log is full too. But thanks for the cache. Old man kangaroo stopped to chat in the way back.

Found it. Thanks

Nice TFTC

Did the rounds of the sporting complex to find this one, as our devices battery was kaput. Whoever labeled this cache as small?? More like very, very small. The clue is in the name. Thanks for the cache computer mans.

Wandered around. Just couldn't get a mental fix on where it would be, then the obvious became the obvious. A tight lid on the cache, something's not right with the thread and had to resort to a tool to get the log. TFTC Computer Man's.

Took a little while to find this one. I was originally looking in the wrong spot. Once I thought about it I eventually found the cache. A great hide in a nice area. I could not get the top off the container to sign the log. It is very tight. Thanks Computer Man's for the cache.

Oh where oh where can that little cache be? Hmmm, nope not there.... What about here, nope not there either. Hang on, what is that on this. Ah ha! I spotted the cache, it was just a matter of retrieving it. Luckily Spangle managed to fit down the path and give me a bit of a hand Log signed, I replaced the tiny beasty as it had been found.

Thanks for the cache Computer Man's

Got it. Loves these type of caches. So bold yet so hidden for the untrained

Next one on my list for today. There were workmen fixing the roof complex across the road but they were not looking in my direction. Parked off road and walked to area around GZ. Definitely do not play with the cover over the electrics for the light. It is not in there. I tried to fix it as best as I could with what I had with me.

Soon had this little nano in my hand but it was a devil to retrieve the container then the log. The threads appears to be slightly stripped. I had to use tools to separate the two parts as it they were joined as if they were glued together.

Signed log YOF as this is what I use on micro and nano logs to save space on the paper. CO might wish to touch up the cammo as there is affair bit of the original colour now showing.

We looked everywhere for this one and was about to give up, particularly with all the DNFs, but thought more about the cache name and there it was. Needed a device to get it that high. It looks like some people have fiddled with the plate over the electronics. It's not there. Thanx

Could not find it, Despite going back twice and looking everywhere! Can you give us a hint!

thanks

This one is going into our favourites...what an awesome cache! Visiting Yamba for a mini-break, we were hoping to log a few away-from-home finds. Well, we've never found one like this before. We were almost baffled, then it was spotted & we loved it. TFTF

Get kid found it! He's so good with the micros!

No Find. Searched but no luck. Several Muggles came along for a dog training day so I had to leave before I otherwise would have given up.
