One for the Geokiddies! Banksia Park, South Australia, Australia
By chellesse on 03-Sep-13. Waypoint GC4MAYN

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.

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.

Taken for repairs some 10 months ago, Maybe time to go altogether?

Have taken this little guy home for some TLC, will get back out there as soon as I can.

Found, harder than expected

Jake & Jai

Bruh!

Location is of quiet a bit. Note pad is out and still damaged box. Even started to get the real kind of bugs inside

Bees. Tftc.

Wasn't easy - bees are scary !!! Especially at night ..... Spiders are scarier....... Turtles are friendlier !!!!!!? Cute cache TFTC

Coordinates off, found after much looking

Was hard to find but we found it, agian the book was wet

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi. As with the adjacent cache this was the 2nd visit to this one. Last time the GPSR had me bouncing all over the place and could not do a thorough search. on fact abandoned as a couple of bees didn't like this cacher. This time it still took a while for the gps to settle down and point to GZ. Made the find and signed a very damp log. Might need to think about replacing it. Gratias pro cache.

Spotted by the geokid while I was admiring beehive. Cheers

Jasmine and Dad's first ever find. Loved the beehive too!

Certainly didn't take 30min.

Yay finally found! Lovely lady neighbor pointed us in the right direction.

as per previous log.

Found on a walk with parislaura

Found the bee hive first, glad we did not need to search that area. After expanding our search area for obvious spots the cache was found. Unfortunately though it was water logged. We drained it out as much as we could and dryed the toys inside. One of the clips is broken on the container so it is in need of owner intervention.

Thanks guys though my little people would have loved finding this cache.

Found it ! Moving the cache buddy

Love the turtle

Found

Found 13/7/15 great one for the kids. Cheers

Good hide! Nice turtle!! PS: It is in a need of a little repair... The turtle is falling off

Able to find after coming back a second time. Awesome hiding spot. TFTC

Container is damaged and contents are damp/wet, replaced the bag that the log was in as it was wet.

Finally found this one.....with al little help from a previous finder, I had been beaten by this one a number of times before , but it has finally been cross off my list Yay.... TFTC

Second time visiting this cache and we finally found it. The dogs said Hi and the bees stayed away. All in all it was a quick find this time. Thanks for the hide. ☺

Find 2273
Found during an attempt to find all those caches close to home.
Used some of the tricks learnt from watching the Turtle Man on TV to locate the cache.
Thanks to chellesse for the cache for A Reel Big Kid.
Fine Elsewhere

Far out well hidden. gps really didn't work. searched for about 40 mins it's really wet our book in a dryer bag.

Gps bouncing everywhere!

Found with vj187. A beautiful day for caching. A great cache but very damp. Emptied water but needs some attention. TFTC.

Found with 2011*turtle. A lovely cache, though the lid was damaged and the contents wet. TFTC

Great idea

Our second DNF this afternoon :c( Seems we left our caching instincts at home. Hopefully we will have more luck another day.

Found while touring around the north-eastern suburbs for the day. Thanks for the cache chellesse!

Found this one today after second visit and the dogs still barking away. The smell of honey made me want honey on toast!! Inside cache is wet so emptied out the water but a clip is broken so it might not stay dry. Swap a bug with Wilson train.

Kids found this one whilst rummaging.

This was our first find! Traded a hello kitty for a flower. Great camouflage. TFTC

Love the cammo for the kiddies TFTC

Not too hard to find! Amazing beehive close by

Watch out for the bees TFTC

Found at 1926hrs after a short search as the coords were slightly off. With 2 dogs barking in nearby houses a bit of extra caution was required. Nice hide. TFTC

Good hide. Cheers

Thought we come car but bees under a log stopped getting closer

Good one for the kids

This one was super cute! The present company at the time were acting like geokids themselves.

Found it! Thanks for the great hunt!!

Couldn't find it.. Even with the help of the geokiddies, GPS, and gloves... Maybe I'll find it next time, although.. I did find a fake grass hopper on the ground.. :p

Hey! I didn't find it sadly... But I tried. Anyone have any tips for a beginner I am really bad at this... Also I left. Little suprise in a pink box for anyone else who couldn't find it but I you do find and have nothing to trade use the stuff! Any way... Is this box missing or am I just bad at this. ~ Dutch Llama

Managed to keep away from the bees. Thanks chellesse.

Found it within a few minutes. We did find the bees first though. Watch out for spiders and their webs. Kids loved it!

GPS was jumpy, almost had a run in with the bees but with persistence the cache was found. Nice Camo, TFTC

Found it

I found the bees
But I couldn't find the cache [:o]
I think the really big, growling, slobbering wolves on the other side of the fence were putting me off searching a bit [:o]

I'll bet one of them is called 'Fluffy'

Must scare the heck out of geokiddies [:o]

Found it

Neat little cache. Found the bee hive before I did the cache bough, thankfully they were quite placid. Said hi to the giant dogs and swapped tbs

Found with peter Mac..watch out for the bees near by

Found with Jambochicken (sorry for the late log!)

Dropped geocoin in

Found with Bek-TheRaccoon. An easy find. TFTC

Quick hunt after my daughter's tennis lesson. She loved the camo as that is her nickname. Tftc

Camo at its best..tftc...found with ryanmc05

Nice hide

found even though a large bee hive in the log its hidden in. not a good idea considering im allergic to bees haha

Found on an afternoon out hunting for TBs to take interstate. No TB in here, but no bees around either..

Did not find it as the big log on the ground at the creek has a huge bee hive in it

Was looking in completely the wrong spot.

Took my younger brother out to cache to show him the ropes. GPS was a bit out but eventually turned up this slow cache!

TFTC

That was a tricky one! Had to look for fresh tracks!

Our second go at this one and found after quite a while of scrabbling through grass and around logs, trying to be cool as the owner of the barking dogs hung her washing out and cast us suspicious glances. Our geokiddie was particularly excited, sadly we had nothing to trade so we left as is.

We found it , great one for the kids

Great lil spot

Getting dark as we hunted around for this one, barking dogs and nosy neighbours peering over their balconies put us off . . . think we got super close but will come back soon and claim victory!

Our cache for the day. We have attempted this at least twice before with no luck for various reasons (muggles, dogs going berserk), but today was our lucky day. Getting dark and the weather being miserable probably helped, too TNLNSL TFTC

Found while caching with friends in the morning. Noice camo [^] A little wet in the container but log book still dry. TNLN. TFTC

Found it - kids loved the cammo!
Took: nothing
Left: green dinosaur

After getting wet shoes stomping in long grass stood back for a look elsewhere and found it hiding , number 9 for today

GPS telling me to look in the middle of the weeds.
Another cache that defeats Mrs KingsQuad! Geohubby went out without GPS and soon turned up the goods
Cute cache, no TB inside
TFTC x

Quick find on a day out and about with the boys in some bautiful areas ticking off some much over due caches.

Congrats on your cache
Thank chellesse for the find.

Mr Tardis and Mr Scoobster were out one a caching run through the north eastern suburbs.

After finally find the One for GeoAdults I'm pleased to say that this one was a quick and easy find in the logical place. Nice container.

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache chellesse and mohuja.

Huge spider web! Duck!
Annoying barking dogs nearby.

Guarded by a spider nearby. Kids loved the toys. Left a blue guitar and blue warthog.

Nice hide. Watch out for spiders! Left a Coopers bottle cap. Will be currency when the Fallout happens. #19

Couldn't find it but only spent 15 minutes looking, found the beehive and took some pictures as the bees wernt on the move very much

Great cache for the geokids. Unfortunately the trackable was not inside. Tftc

#19

Cache is wet and needs a visit with a new container and drying equipment for the swaps.

A much easier find than the Geoadult cache nearby. This cache is in need of maintenance as it is very wet inside and not all of the swaps can swim. We didn't have anything with us to dry it out otherwise we would have. TFTC.

GPS was jumping around everywhere but soon found it. Bees are still near by. TFTC

No kids present ....... something about the 40 degree heat. Took a few minutes but I found the prize!!! Thanks chellesse for the hide111

While Mrs Windy Archer was having her hair done nearby I slipped off for a quick cache. The GPS put me in the middle of a grassy area with 3 possible hiding spots within about 5 metres. Of course, it was in the last place I looked! Loved the container. Thanks chellesse.

Took TB's to visit also picked up TB

Out today with 3LG and Earthlight, for a caching adventure.
A quick easy find and sign
Lots of laughs and jokes were had throughout our adventure.
TFTC

Owl is becoming resigned to not being able to find a cache placed by these ladies. In fact, she is convinced they are painting their caches with camouflage invisible to an owl’s eyes. How else do you explain the complete inability to find a 1 difficulty regular-sized cache after the total of an hour’s searching? Fortunately the COs are kind and patient ladies who are happy to help a hapless Owl who is supposed to be having a relaxing break from preparing a thesis and not breaking 4 nails and getting splinters scrabbling around in what turns out to be nowhere near the right spot while a dog barks incessantly at her. (Insert mindless babbling here.)

Dogs barking & a bit scared we would find a snake instead! We'll come back another day.

With coords putting us in middle of the mown grass, and the dog barking, there wasn't much chance of a decent search.
Another one in full view of muggle neighbours...

Our geokiddies have long grown up and lost interest in this 'sport' - looks like we'll have to find this one ourselves .
Nice container ornament. TNLNSL.
Thanks for another one Chellesse & Mahuja.

Had a laugh when I saw the little face. Nice one

Nice effort with the container. A quick find and we were on to the next one. TFTC

running a bit behind in loging

took longer than needed as i played with the bee hive near by

Had a big geocaching day with Moneydork and Honeysucker meandering about the Adelaide suburbs. We found many and I'm late logging them. Please understand for this batch of caches I will be doing a cut-n-paste log so that I can finish 2013 all caught up on my logs The geocache was not a nondescript cache it meant a lot to me to find it, I just need to get caught up I've been behind for so very long. Thanks heaps!

A nice quick find whist caching with friends.
Watch out for bees near GZ.
