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 sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

trees have been cut down as gz. there are no rocks at gz or on park grounds near gz ( only if reach through fence to private property) . previous cachers have found only temp cache bag and newspaper to write on and that now seen gone.

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.

Well if this cache was hidden near some trees it will need to be rehidden as the trees have been chopped down and are missing.

Found it

Agree very dodgy cache. But still in same place as a few comments ago.

Too easy

Navigation is a bit off but found it!

Found this a while back with the crew, went at night time with no muggles around. Pretty creepy at night time to be honest..

TFTC Bcj17 this one sure does need some maintenance

Bit dodgy, but kids still enjoyed finding it. Easy find after reading other logs.

Out with mishka89 Tftc not a great cache. Have seen better. Needs attending

Nice little Park tucked away from everything. Quick find while lunchtime caching. TFTC

This is the most dodgy cache i have ever found. Ina j bag not even a log just a peice of newspaper everyone is signing. In the cacti.. under a rock pfft. Only giving u direct instructions because is sh***.

Tftc

Found it. Cache needs cache!?

Found with Legrooter and the Hunter bros. Found easily with a little friend hiding underneath.

Found it was just a bag - not sure if there was more to it originally ! TFTC

Freaky to believe a cemetery was here easy find

TFTC

Don't know why the container says emergency cache kit. TFTC

Found it

Out and about after a birthday dinner in the area the frogs and Mattycat decided some torchlight caching would finish off the night, a little eerie walking through here tonight, found the cache in a typical GZ after expanding the search a little from where the arrow had us, all intact with signed logbook inside a common cache contaainer TFTC Team_Buttons

Birthday caching night with team Froghoppin
Best way to spend it!
Wonderful dinner and caching with generous and kind friends/family. Thanks guys.

Half the fun coming here at night was imagining the scenarios of ghouls sneaking into the car while we were distracted caching, and possessing our bodies when we returned. OK Mrs Frog has a pretty vivid imagination - but who's to say that didn't happen and I'm just a possessed cat now!
Who even puts a playground in a graveyard!!

Widening the search from GZ just a little had Mr Frog locate a cache container full of freshness and logs were done and dusted...

Spooky caching. Love it

tftc

Found a munted plastic lock bag. Classy cache.

A fascinating little park which is worth a re-visit
I couldn't find this cache last time I was here, and today only found what seems to have become a cache stand in [:o]
Alas I had no spare containers with me on the bike, so I couldn't help this caches plight.
I added me name to the little bit of paper in a bag and rode home

Just an empty plastic bag under a small rock so needs replacing

Found the location, coords are out needs a new log. Loved the history tftc.

Coords were out, found the location although it was just am empty plastic log bag hidden under the rock. Managed to find a scrap piece of paper to log our find. Container no where to be seen. TFTC anyway.

Our prize... Die eraser!

We found it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Found it afrter searching most possible spots around GZ. Follow the hint and you will gind it too. TFTH Team_Buttons

Scoped out the GZ by reading surviving headstones until big & small muggles left. Bit of searching involved as coords out. Rock's persistence won out & he had the cache in hand. TFTC

I definitely found a cache, with official GC stickers, etc... except it has emergency replacement cache written on it, something not mentioned elsewhere. Also, is the hint in the hint section still valid? I don't know. If it isn't applicable anymore get rid of it. End of my rant.

A great park with a fascinating history.

Thanks for the cache, Team Buttons.

Eventually found. Look through past clues to find. Photo clue very helpful. Still no log book

My first cache

Easy to find, will look at your others. Thank you.

Been to this park 3 times in the last week to play with the kids. Suddenly thought today "this would be a great spot for a cache" well what do u know haha found it easily and thanks for the history very interesting

Lovely suburban retreat.

Found it. Thanks for the cache

Easy find!

First catch

Took a while to find as the GPS was all over the place today. Thanks Team Buttons.

Found during an enjoyable days' caching in the western suburbs. Located after a shortish search about 10 metres NE of the posted coordinates, but the clue should help you get there! Thanks for the hide Team Buttons!

Coordinates changed from:
S 34° 51.297 E 138° 30.714

Coordinates changed to:
S 34° 51.286 E 138° 30.755

Distance from original: 215.1 feet or 65.6 meters.
Due to this cache being in a destructive location in the park, the GZ has changed slightly.
Still the same lovely park, just relocated. Please check for Muggles before retrieving & replacing cache


NEW HINT: Pears

TFTC! Was not placed where we thought it was meant to be, gps very off! Found with Donnazev, camstuart, genghicat

Found the container (coordinates were off) with no log book. Given it was an obvious find, logging it as such, but need to advise that this will need to have a replacement book. Have uploaded photos to show find.

Found it with Genghicat & geokids camStuart & Orange Unicorn.

Cache was not well hidden & way off GZ. No logbook. Will post note for maintenance

TFTC

This one needs looking at as cache container was way off GZ & no logbook to be found. Think it had been muggled.
Genghicat supplied photo where it was found

Nice spot, hint is outdated though
~Urban Assassin's

Found this cache today, apparently it has been recently replaced. Old hint is outdated, but still not too difficult. Good luck!

Back in the area today and no young lovers to be seen. However, no cache was seen either despite an extensive search. Found the most likely spot empty.

A couple of teens maling out at gz halted any plans of a search. Kids enjoyed the playground whilst I read some history. Will try again another day.

I was on a bike ride around the area today and found meself in this interesting little park.
Gosh !! I never knew this was here and it is certainly well hidden, despite being so close to Port Road [:o]
After a wander around the nearby memorial, I set about looking for the cache.
A good poke around later and I was still cacheless !!
The situation was grave ... pardon the pun ... so I searched again.
Nothing found [:o]
Thanks for an interesting spot though

Found last night just not able to log it on phone.
Interesting park, never known of it and have lived around here for 10 years, thanks geocach

Find 1986
Found the cache but no old banknotes.
Removed the Team Buttons Travel Bug and added a momento acquired during National Service in 1968, soon it will be placed in a cache to get it towards the goal.
Thanks to Team Buttons for the cache.
Fine Elsewhere

This cache was indeed missing from its original location. The cache has been replaced with some new goodies and a Team_Buttons travel bug. It would love to make it all the way up to Tin Can Bay for a picture with the dolphins (and to do the picture cache!!) and then back home again. Lots of room to add your own little 'stamp' to the travel bug as it travels on its journey.

Not find for me today. Someone was reading something at a picnic table and I had to leave. When I returned, still couldn't see it.

Found it a while ago with VJ187 but had forgotten to log my find. TFTC

Found with 2011*turtle. An interesting place to visit and we enjoyed reading about the history of this area. TFTC

Nice area
Easy find
Took TBS for a look
tftc

A quick easy find.
Took trackables to visit.
TFTC

Ghostly area. Don't think would be nice at night. TFTC. Took TB to move on.

Easy find tftc left trackable

With a spare 24 hours in Adelaide I grabbed a hire car and went caching. What else was I to do!

A pleasingly quick find, now for some lunch.

Cheers

A quick find on the way home from my Mum's and before I got to Ned Kelly's bakery.

Good history.

TFTC

Awesome location. TFTC

Had to wait for muggle and dog to leave before extraction. Slightly buried. TFTC

Nice and easy while family playing on the swings. TFTC

Found in the company of locus_cache, Firesafe, Honeysucker and Knightyme after the Duct Tape Will it Float Event. TFTC.

Was nearby for the Duct Tape Challenge event and we continued grabbing caches in the area.

Quick find and sign. TFTC.

I picked up Dennisc52 and we headed for the Lets Test Does It Float - DTC #3 event.
By day's end I had found 11 smileys and no DNF's at all, thanks to the eagle eyes of Dennisc52 who managed to locus cache from metres away

What else do you do after an event but cache!
A 3 car convoy of firesafe, Knightyme, Honeysucker, Dennisc52 and myself set off to grab some more smileys.

I now wonder how many cemeteries there are that have been converted into 'Pioneer Parks'[?]
There is one at Gawler which also has a cache in it.

Another quick find by eagle eyed Dennisc52

TNLN. SL. TFTC Team_Buttons

Found on a bit of a wander after work..TFTC

Have to agree with sushilord, a multi would have cachers looking around some more. We enjoy multi's for that reason. The West Tce cemetary multi has been one of the most memorable & educational caches we have done. This is a place to be apprecited. SL, TFTC.

Another spot that was quiet today, but with the play equipment and on site facilities, we're sure it's not always this way .
The old head stones attached to (what looks like) a crypt and the named pavers certainly leaves no doubt that this was once a cemetery [8]. Interesting history, especially that there were 3,000 people buried here and how about the bank loot !
Quickly found. TNLNSL.
Thanks Team Buttons.

Out with Sars12, Jeffrey11 and Jeffeddy for the scouting competition. TFTC AND SERIES.

Found while out caching with Jeffrey11, Sars12 and Team Pedal Pushers. TFTC.

Found with Team Pedal Pushers, Jeffery11 and Jeffeddy.

TFTC
SCOUTS COMP.

Found while out caching during the evening with Jeffeddy, Team Pedal Pushers and Sars12. TFTC.

A few dog walkers were walking their dogs. As they do.

You could find this one without the dogs going mad.

A n ice big park.

The dog walkers were obviously not Port Power fans. No one was around. Seriously - no one anywhere. they were glued to the screens or at footy park watching the Power get to within one point. Now that was grave.

Clear skies and thanks to Team_Buttons from TeamAstro.

great area took a bit of time out to have a look at the nearby head stones

snuck down to adelaide to for the international day event, and to share locus 50th birthday, and of corse to go find a few caches afterwards.

ll and i were waiting for locus to come back so we went and found a few while we waited, took longer then we ment to, but sure we looked there

520

Found with auzzie convict great area tftc

Littke bit creepy lol but nice spot thxs found with polkys quest tftc )

Found It!
Last one for the night with chrispy. No graves were seen which is probably a good thing since it was almost 3am...
TFTC

Nice hide in a park that I had visited ages ago when there was another hide here!!! Thanks Team Buttons for the cache!!!

We attended the International Geocaching Day Event and having had a great afternoon picking up caches on the way, we decided to continue the fun on the way home. This time Dr Owl and brisal5 joined us on a very pleasant outing. Now it was dark and things became a little harder.

Mr M found the cache without too much trouble. TFTC Buttons.

With CPwanderer on our way to an event for International Geocaching day. Nice easy find.

Day 17 in a row for 31 days of caching in August. . After attending the International Geocaching Event with Aussie M&M and Dr. Owl it was time to cache our way home. . Mr.s M made the quick find here. Thanks Team Buttons.

A traditional cache is wasted here - a multi would work so much better as It would make visitors take a look at the interesting head stones.

Thanks for the cache Team Buttons.

After a time-consuming DNF down the roads, Owl needed a quick cache to keep her August streak alive. Despite some confusion about the date, this one was perfect. The historical nature of the cache was an added bonus – it’s nice to see councils valuing their past, rather than just digging it up.

After spending the day looking after my granddad, I decided to take an hour for myself and go after a few of the nearby caches that I hadn't picked up yet. This was the third of five.

Arrived just as dusk was setting in to an empty graveyard / park. GPSr had me moving in circles, so used my cacher instinct and took a guess. Shortly after the cache was in hand (complete with FTF certificate still). No supernatural beings were discovered while chasing this cache. TFTC Team Buttons!

Found with princess-lisa

Awesome but creepy park found with kayla_saurus

Very neat and tidy park, great history. You see many good things when you turn off the main road, Thanks.

Wow! Thanks for the interesting history. Very nice park now.

Thanks Team_Buttons for the cache

Quick find before work

TFTC

Found in the company of Dad (mtbikeroz) on a cold wet night out caching in an area we both hadn't cleared out.

Interesting history, spent a bit of time reading around. Nice history lesson, Thanks.

Nice park. Tftc.
