One or more of the following has occurred:
No response from the cache owner.

It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

7.15. Archive or 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.

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.

No luck. Some of the habitat has been poisoned.

No luck here, coords had us over the fence and obvious hiding spot agave has been killed off

Only DNF for the day. We have done No. 1 last. View is amazing but can't get a reading under 9 without jumping the fence. Wind is very strong.

Too tricky for us today. Thanks anyway

Still couldn’t find it but ouch is all dead and still know where to be seen. Second try but nope.

The coolest one so far on our journey

What amazing scenery!!!!!!!
And the locals are very friendly ️
Absolutely beautiful!!! Tftc

Would of been a quicker if the horses didn't want a pat tftc

Our time at Gawler Gateway is drawing to a close again. Peeked at the Geo map and decided to tackle some caches out towards One Tree Hill. Lots were just too far for us to walk today, not so hot but quite humid. Short walks were attempted but no long ones. Then back via a few caches we had somehow missed in the past.

Replaced the mashed up log here. N.B with bisons its easier to roll the logs and place them in the lid before sealing back up.

TFTC

Yay, finished the series by finding the first one last. Previous comments helped a lot in regards to using other hides in the series to find this one. We looked first, couldn't find so did others in series before returning for a quick find. Tftc

TNLN Dis not sign log. TFTC

Found but log too wet to sign TFTC

This series is in serious need of fixing, majority of the caches had mushy log books.

Today I headed home from blanchetown, decided to do a few caches around Nuriootpa, then headed further south to meet up with Davidwazza, we cached for a few hours are Gawler before the international geocaching day event.

TFTC

On International Geocaching Day, it was a day of geocaching centering around Gawler and the associated celebratory event held at lunch. I woke up early to complete the 5 km Parkrun in Gawler, which was a new location for me, and then I met up with gridge98 to drive around the various caches in the vicinity. After a few geocache finds in central Gawler including Clonlea Park, we then completed a few mini power trails such as the serenity series and Meat Trail.
After lunch, I went solo to continue solving multi-caches and collecting some older 2007 caches in Gawler. As it got dark, I drove along the Gawler - One Tree Hill Road to collect the intermittent caches along there, to arrive home just after dark to discover the whole blocks had no power for another few hours. A nice day out and finding in good weather.

Returning to this cache after our earlier search, it was certainly helpful to know the cache type, and found within a few minutes. The logbook was once again mush, and we were unable to sign. I think the whole trail probably needs to be checked on, thanks NorthernDelights.

Couldn't find

The only unnatural sound I can hear is someone chopping wood in the distance. Thanks NorthernDelights for the peace.

Disappointing. Spent quite a while looking in all the obvious places and all the not so obvious places. Not only were the coordinates completely way off there was a fantastic hint but you've got to be joking if you think I'm going to be spending my time looking for something so small in a giant prickly patch with not only the horses leering over me but every other car that drives past.

Here is the DOWN LOW on this cache. After previously not being able to find this cache I carried on to the next few in the series which will give you a good idea of what to look for when searching for this cache. Having said that the coordinates are still quite out and the hint really isn't as good as I previously gave it credit for.

Had to stop for a second look on the way back and found it. Great hide. TFTC

Like most of the Serenity series it took awhile to find but got there in the end.TFTC

No where to be seen.

Not sure it’s still here

We are on vacation in Australia and of course we seek some caches.
Thanks for this one!
Greetings from the Netherlands.

Log too wet to sign. Tftc

NEEDS NEW LOG
Another good find on a tour from cache to cache in the area.
Found with woolwood9.
Wet log TFTC

Day two of my trip to Adelaide and surrounding areas with tmann421.
Weather still pretty marginal, but finding numbers whenever we can between rain showers.
Enjoying these caches, log signed and returned

Coords out and log too wet to sign. Thus the attached photograph.

Found with dad xmarkphoto kind of difficult love it though

Nice location, took a while but found it did not log in book due to waterlogged

Out with hevwalker today collecting the cluster of caches along this road.
The coordinates were a bit off, but due to the clue we had a fair idea where it would be.
As we both have done caches like these, we decided to keep our fingers, skin & clothing.

Out & about with clare007 on a Barossa caching adventure...
The coordinates had us in the paddock & looking at previous logs had a pretty good idea of where to look but gave it a miss...

Found paper is water logged

Huzzah!

Ouch indeed! Tftc!

Was about to DNF when kids were stroking horses I spotted it! Paper is waterlogged.

Friendly Horses, TFTC.

Good find, TFTC!

Nice views. Greeted by two lovely horses. Tftc.

Found after a few extra holes from the cactus

Nope

Chasing serenity is not a bad way to spend the day. TFTC and the series.

Thanks to Wacko ! TFTC.

Easy find! TYFTC such a beautiful spot!

Didnt have any luck with this series today except for the Finale.

Spent a fair bit of time searching for this one - despite the coords putting us 10 metres into private proprety. Didn't see anything around the obvious location the hint was referring to.

Couldn't see it today

Tricky

Found

????

Had to go to Lyndoch today so enjoyed a day caching while out, in total we got 28 caches out of the 30 we went for.
We played with puppys, hand fed a magpie, saw kangaroos, camels, horses, baby lambs.... Did nature and history walks, found caches of all sizes, multis, an earth cache, we even enjoyed scones and coffee with a friend and met 2 other geocachers.
Days like today remind me of why we cache, our country is a beautiful place full of great scenery, history, nature and people. Had an absolutely fantastic day with our 2 youngest children smiling all day.
Thankyou for your cache.

tftc northerndelights quick easy find today. Over from Perth visiting my family and back in my old hometown.

Trees cut down

All good

While staying at our current digs in nearby Williamstown we decided to grab a few local caches while driving to Gawler for supplies

Coming from Williamstown we did this nice little series in reverse order but managed to make all of them count

Many thanks for the hides NorthernDelights[^][^][^]

Our last full day in the Barossa so we headed out to grab as many finds as we could. Took all the back country lanes - our type of caching. Extended our search and found the co-ords are out by 11 mts. Thanks NorthernDelights

The last day of our SA caching holiday with richlink dawns and we are off to places a bit farther a field in a quest to grab as many smilies as we can in the time we have left. Thanks for your cache NorthernDelights.

Clue initially tricked us but soon had it in hand. Thanks for this series. We've enjoyed it.

No luck.

Sneaky clue. Found with peeneff. Thanks NorthernDelights.

Ouch indeed TFTC

A caching afternoon with Froghoppin and geoson Sebastbat took us to many places.
Ahhhhh the serenity.
Found quicker after we rethought the red herring flavoured clue!
TNLN TFTC NorthernDelights

Out for a days caching with Mattycat and Sebastbat, found after a short search with three sets of eyes great views along this scenic road TFTC NorthernDelights

Tftc loving these views thank you tricky!!! Sl

Such a pretty view

Another good find while holidaying in the area.
Many thanks for setting this one up [^]

SL

??

You good sir are evil but I love you 3 out of 3

Yay 4 from 4 for me loving life thanks for bringing us out here tftc

found with the.bakers on a nice afternoon drive. SL. TFTC

We looked for a while with no success. We knew that the co-ords were out, so we concentrated on the clue, which seems did not help. Will have to return to it some other day. For now we leave a picture of locals that were spotted close to what we believe to be the real GZ.

Catching up on some late, very late and extremely late logs (400 in all)

I would like to thank NorthernDelights for placing this cache. I always enjoy getting out and about to view this great country of ours and caching allows me to do that. Once at GZ, I sometimes find the cache quickly but sometimes it takes awhile to sus out the well camouflaged hide. Once found, log is signed and the cache is rehidden as found.

Once again thanks NorthernDelights.

Heading to Gawler from the Barossa Gold fields we attacked this series in reverse. This was a nice quiet road that is in places very very scenic and this series was a great way to stop and take in more of the views.

This one was the last one in the series for us and for a little while it looked like it might be a DNF as we searched all the likely hides and then even spread out a little bit and then micaparamedic caught a glimpse of something in the sunlight and not long after we were adding our names to the log.

Thanks NorthernDelights for the cache and this many series.

Was short on time and fuel so needed to let this one go for now.

The last one for the series, lol :cP In a backwards fashion. Co-ords seemed a little off, though our device would not seem to settle here. TFTC!!

Mislaid my notes from my day out and about with DiMorgan, please accept this late log
Lovely countryside and pleasant time had by all!!
Thansk for this cache and the series NorthernDelights

Day 2 in Gawler. CCaching today with Gumako.
Just wandering around some of the strrets & into the country side looking for caches.
Its a good way to do a tiki tour of the town. Great views from along this mountain road.
Thanks for placing this cache NorthernDelights

Found. Co ordinates have been a bit out on these..

Unfortunately not much to see up here today due to the heavy fog.
Once we found the first one, the rest of these weren't so hard.

TNLNSL
Thanks

A nice spot albeit the cold and fog tonight SL TFTC

Headed out to Gawler today with earthlight and snap happy to grab some of the local caches, weather was great and some of the views were spectacular especially from around here, new log sheet as old one was past its use by date. TFTC

When we first searched for this one we couldn't spot it anywhere, resigning it to a DNF we moved on after finding Serenity 2 we thought we might have some idea where to look, sure enough there it was all along, DNF avoided:)
