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.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache within 7 days, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

Should you replace the cache after 7 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Searched for this one before with Spidervicous, this cache either needs maintenance or to be archived, and judging by CO's lack of caching activity recently and a long string of DNF+needs maintenance logs, i'm siding with needs archived.
 
14-Feb-16
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 page and post a 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.

I was having a surf at the beach but my timing was off and there were a few good waves to be had before the low tide came in and ruined everything. I thought about staying out in the surf for longer hoping that there might be a few decent waves here and there but compared to the waves that were had a mere hour ago it was a disappointing affair. I decided to better use my time by finally doing a few of the caches in the area.

After I finally got dressed after my search I had a quick look at the phone and noticed that this one wasn't too far away. I hadn't planned on doing anything after my surf so didn't have shoes on me. But seeing as though this is Barefoot Jeff's local area then I figured I could do the same.

I headed across and over onto a familiar field. I have played games of soccer here as a junior and run x-country races through the bush here also. I remember playing club gala days and school gala days and whole heaps of stuff on this oval. I followed the path until the numbers ran down and spotted a geo trail into the bush. Walking through the scrub in bare feet wasn't the best of ideas as the danger of snakes was ever present due to the thick long grass in the area.

I spotted the GZ very quickly and made my way around for an easy find. I signed the log (which needs replacing) and put everything back into position. I haven't seen a container quite like this one before and was semi impressed.

TFTC Cheers

Found 12:33 pm. TFTC good size container. There was no TB. Note there seemed to have been another visitor since the cacher who may have left the TB this visitor wrote not a nice message and had no date. I found a couple of small items that were also left laying on the ground. CO probably will have to list this TB as missing.
