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.

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.

Could not find. Geodad, geokid and I thoroughly looked for this cache at coordinates but could not find it. Figured that it has been muggled as I figured new seats placed in park. Didn't see the previous log comments.

Find Number 687, found at 09:40

GeoSon NationalSteel invited me to take part in the annual Burrawang School of Arts fund-raising trivia competition. The following morning he took me on a geotour of Robertson and the surrounding areas.

This was the first of the morning. It tok quite a time to find and at one point we thought it was missing because NS, who had found it before, said it wasn't where it was at that time. Eventually we found it, though, just a few fet from the old hide, but in a similar location.

The cache was in good condition. We signed the log and replaced the container as found.

Thanks gobster6 for the cache.

It was a bit wet when TaurusSix and I were there.
 
16-Aug-14
The weekend had arrived! So this meant another geomission with Rapidlywild gallivanting around the Southern Highlands again Big GrinBig GrinBig Grin. Today's focus was all about the sights and scenery and just taking it easy rather than going crazy racking up the numbers Smile

Next stop for us as we were caching our way back to the Can was this one. It was dark and drizzling by now so on with the torches and off we went to GZ. Once there we searched all the usual spots and RW even deployed the usually effective "upskirt" without success Big Grin Then I saw a spot that looked like a goer and then...bingo! Found it Big Grin So then with caching duties complete off to the warm car we go.

Thanks for the hide, gobster6 Smile
 
16-Aug-14
It was the weekend, so that means 1 thing, GEOMISSION TIME with specimenX Big Grin

We had decided to head over towards Fitzroy Falls to collect the Virtual cache as they are few and far between these days and it would be something slightly different for our 7 caches for August challenge.

We collected a total of 24 caches for me today and 22 for specimenX.

We had just done the virtual at Fitzroy Falls and we decided to clean up a few around here and complete the loop back up to the Illawarra Highway.

The deicison was made, Left towards the Hume Highway (then home) or Right to collect some more caches in Richardson............ Right we went Big Grin

It was getting a little chilly and the fog was rolling in. We parked close by and wandered over to the likely hide location. As mentioned by specimenX, I deployed the "Upskirt" tactic however was unsuccessful in this occassion. Agh well, its still a good tactic Big Grin specimenX soon came up with the goods, way to go chick!!!! Logging duties completed and we were on our way again Smile

Thanks for the cache gobster6 Smile

#2271 - 07:55; Stopped off for a quick leg stretch before heading down the pass and on to the Illawarra, so decided to have a go at finding this cache. I looked around and under without success and was about to head off when I spotted something suspicious and my persistence was rewarded. Signed the log and back to the geomobile to continue the journey. TFTC gobster6 Smile

Found at 3:38 PM GAFF1. On our way to Kiama after spending a couple of days in Berrima while our Patrol was serviced by Berrima Diesel. We took this cache as an opportunity to let a bunch of cars pass us by - they must have been so pleased Red Face
With the condition of this bench, there were so many possible hiding spots and it took us 2 rounds to spot it and then it was tough to extract it - who shoved it in that far [B)]
Thanks gobster6.
Looking at the hint now, it seems that the cache has been relocated, because you don't have to do that anymore Wink
