An action had been taken on this cache because of one of the following -

No response from the cache owner to the previous reviewer note ask for this cache to receive maintenance.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As there has been no response I'm archiving this cache to stop it from showing up in my reviewer searches and new placement checks.

Please remember to return to the GZ and collect the cache or Check it has been removed if you have not already done so.

We don't want to litter our environment with Geotrash and if you have any TB's or coins in your cache I'm sure the owners would want them moved on.

If you decide to proceed with this cache in the next 28 days please contact me via email and I'll unarchive it for you.

This cache has now been taken off my watchlist and I will not see any notes you leave on the cache page from today

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.

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.

12-Nov-16
Finally was able to look for this one today (after at least 3 previous attempts), only muggle dog walkers about the place Red Face. Searched and searched, then read a heap of logs and searched again, all without luck [B)].
Looks like we'll need to keep watch to see if anyone else finds it Twisted.
Thanks anyway S and A.

09-Apr-16
And the girls are off! Myself and my bestie Sharyn (family4p) are off on a girls weekend away to the Clare Valley for some geocaching, no husbands and no kids!! Woo Hoo!!
Why oh why were nanos even invented, they are evil!
We have decided to do some night caching while we are here, my first time!! (I hate the dark lol)
Torches in hand and the search was on.
So I took the hint to literally and up on the equipment I went. Now I am not the tiniest person around and also scared of heights so why I thought this was a good idea is beyond me lol. Sharyn was on one piece of equipment and I was on another, if anyone had of come along we would have looked pretty silly lol. After a LOT of searching, we came up with the goods in the end and the log was signed and replaced.
Thankyou for bringing us here and thanks for the hide!!

22-Aug-15
Final cache of seven today with three Juniors in tow on a family outing.
Stopped at the park for lunch before heading on to our next (non-caching) stop of the day, and thought this one would be an easy find for the kids.
Turns out, they need a bit more practice! The nano size tripped all three of them up, with Mr 12 declaring "It's just not here!" Eventually found it myself - nice little hide.
TFTC

Another great find while in the area on holiday.
Thanks for setting up this cache. SL
 
26-Jul-15
Found It!
This one took me quite a bit longer to find than it ever should have. Thankfully it was much too cold for any kids to be out and about. I'm with Freddo, let's burn down the nano factories!

In Clare for the weekend to do the Bike assault on the RT and Rattler series. Thought we would head out in the freezing cold and flash the torches around..Last time we were here, the place was crawling with Muggles so we gave it a miss. This time it was too cold for Muggles so we were safe to find.....TFTC
 
24-Jul-15
Me first ride through the park did not produce a cache find [:o]
There was a muggle sitting nearby taking a break.
Not to worry, I'll be back in an hour or so Razz

And an hour or so later, I found the park lands empty Smile

But where was the cache [:o]
I couldn't find the silly thing Red Face
Then the next wave of muggles turned up Sad

They didn't bring any kids with them luckily for me.
And I had a pushbike Razz
So I kept poking around, pretending to fix something on the bike.
And after an eternity, I felt the merest hint of a cache !!

Thoughts of burning 'nano factories' came to mind.
But I see Freddo has already found this one Wink

TFTC S and A Razz
 
19-Jul-15
been trying to get to this one for awhile, but there is always Mugglers about! So at 10;30 last night in the 2 Degrees (which feels like -5 in Clare) we headed out to check it and replaced the log Smile
 
12-Jul-15
Found

Good Hide
 
26-Apr-15
Spent the day with Freddo enjoying the rattler trail and then picking up some of the other unfound geocaches around the Clare Valley [^] The rain held off for us and the temperature was just perfect for some exercise!
Thoroughly enjoyed the variety of hides, cache types and containers we found along the way.
Cheers and TFTC S and A

Bloody Nanos! Spawn of satan. Burn down the Nano factory, and exterminate anyone who sells Nanos.

Day out with kids for holidays TFTC
 
11-Apr-15
Teamed up with Sorceysal this week to do a raid on this cache rich state, and left with over 1000 finds in 8 days, including travelling over and back to bacchus marsh in Vic. Today we travelled from Wallaroo to Auburn, left the caravan there, and did the rattler series before heading to Clare to start the RT series as well.

We also grabbed a few caches travelling to and from the starts of the rides.
This was once again found by SS, thanks S and A
 
11-Apr-15
Found on our last full day in South OZ with the bogonghazys. We came today to complete the Rattler Series and to do as many other caches along the way as possible. Travelled to Clare after completing the Rattler Series to do some of the RT series and to knock off some more local caches.

Thanks for showing us around the great area S and A

A quick find when we got to GZ. We did some of the caches on the Riesling Trail when we were in town three years ago and doing some more today to fill in some gaps. Doing some caches around town before heading out to the trail. It's all in the timing, just did the deed before a family turned up and swarmed into the playground. TFTC
 
23-Feb-15
Crawled under but didn't spot the little sucker
 
08-Feb-15
Good find
 
06-Feb-15
After we finished the Rattler trail we headed of into Clare to clean up a few caches in there grabbing caches along the way, this one was a very tricky one as we looked in that spot a couple of times, we had the whole park to ourselves so muggles were no problem. TFTC
 
17-Jan-15
There was a muggle party going on here, so not able to search again. Looks like we'll have to come back a third time to look for this one.
 
11-Jan-15
Thanks

[Teal]As we head from town to town as part of our "Purposeful Meander around Oz" the Rats and the Mini Rats found this cache. Dad did most of the hard work here and the detail of our find can be found in the Rats log. Sorry for the duplicate log but it takes nothing away from the find.

We had lunch here and we play on the playground equipment too

Thanks for showing us this spot on our trip.

Another playground on Clare, geez these kids are spoilt!!! Lucky little devils they could go to a different spot every day of the week.
Good timing for us though, Friday morning and not a little tacker in sight so we had the playground to ourselves, so we hunted high and low and found a cache Smile.
Signed the log and replaced it safe and sound as found, thanks S and A for the cache and the chance of a slippery dip.
