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 or message centre) 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.

Unfortunately I was unable to locate this cache today. I will add it to my list and hopefully return soon to claim the prize.

Had a good look around and expanded the search area a bit to no avail.

06-Nov-18
Found easy enough, but I couldn’t for the life of me get the log out. As I’m visiting from interstate, I didn’t have my vehicle nor bag of tricks with me, so I’ve taken a pic of the container instead. TFTC, I enjoyed this series, which I started 2 years ago.
 
20-Sep-18
Thought I would try and knock this series off today, the weather is beautiful although a little chilly in the morning. I found all the caches and replaced logs or containers as I went to keep this series alive. tftc

This was our first full day of caching from our base at Mandurah, many of the caches we found, belonging to the various series, which appear as green snakes on our geo map of this part of WA.

Thanks lou&tam for placing caches for everyone's enjoyment.

Hi there lou&tam.

We found your cache **"Greek Alphabet - Gamma"** at 10:38:00 AM today. This cache makes our find count 15013.

We started the day off by nominating a cache some distance away from our camp site and then took a route that was mostly determined by the next closest cache according to our GPS. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip around the area & ended up finding quite a variety of container types, and sizes hidden along our route.

We found 18 caches today & DNF'd 2. Thanks for placing the cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 5m from where the GPS said we should be looking. Wink
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

27-Jul-16
Headed to Mandurah to have a go at this power series on a well deserved day off work, Completed the Marlee Reserve series first and then found ourselves here ready to start this Greek Alphabet series. Had a great day thanks to excellent coords that made finding the caches so much better. Variety of cache types and perfect distances between caches made this series one to remember. LOved the bisons. TFTC's!
 
24-Jul-16
Came down to the area principally to complete the Greek alphabet series. I started on the nearby TDxxx Horse themed series before heading this way. I parked up near the middle of the series and cycled to the start. I managed to find all caches in the series, some easier than others and some quite tricky ones. I finished the day with 37 finds ans luckily no DNF's so quite a successful day. Thanks lou&tam for the caches.
 
22-Jul-16
TFTC, only one of the team today to finishing the series.

28-Feb-16
Running up the numbers today in readiness of my 3000th find in Albany next week. Had a go at my unfound SWH caches down to Pinjarra and then some Greek Alphabets on the way back plus a few others here and there.

Turning this section into a series of park 'n' grabs. Added a new log book here.

lou&tam I found your cache at 12:50pm, this was the 35th of 56 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 2949. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

SLTFTC

I'm looking forward to meeting other geocachers in Pinjarra at the 'WA GOES BIG IN 2016' event on the 4th - 5th June. Registrations now open.

Check it out at [GC5YAGP](http://coord.info/GC5YAGP)

SL.Thanks to lou&tam for the cache.

Day thirty of the WA road trip with BettyBoo3747.
Spent the day on the deadly treadlies riding all around bits of Mandurah. We started on the Greek Alphabet, then the Horse trail, the Marlee Reserve (for lunch), then a few odd ones to finish up on the 366 challenge for BB.
I always think of Gamma Rays when I hear this letter (physics post-grad, can't help it!)
Passed by a muggle cyclist here, first for the day.
Thanks, Robmc.

# 7966. Another lovely sunny day here in the West. Robmc and I decided to attack the Greek Alphabet series by bicycle and although it was fairly windly along the highway it was nice to have the wind at our back on the return trip to the car. Unfortunately, a lot of maintenance needs to be done along this trail. Nearly all the plastic bags are torn and need to be checked/replaced.

Signed on the back of the log - second side almost full. Will need replacing very soon.

Thanks lou&tam

30-Dec-14
Now we're getting the hang of it. I was still climbing off my bike when I heard 'got it'
 
28-Dec-14
For this section of the Greek Alphabet I decided to drive while hubby jumped in and out of the car to make the finds. We had cycled to find the other section some time ago now, so we were well overdue to finish this series.
A couple of times I jumped out as well if he was taking too long and a few times I had to yell from the car to look in the obvious place.
Overall, for a hubby not keen on caching, he did well.

Hubby made a quick find here.

A plastic snake in the cache sprung out like a jack-in-a-box. Amusing. Unlike the rain which was not letting up and trying hard to ruin my day. TFTC.
