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.

From https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56

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 area this cache is located in is still closed to the public while the roads and walk trails are maintained and reconstructed after the devastating fires that came through in December/January.
Once the roads have been opened I will re-visit and replace the cache which I am expecting will be a melted mess by now.

Bush fires have affected the area and I suspect there will be a puddle of plastic in this location. Will enable again once I've gotten up there to suss out the situation and conducted maintenance.

Thank you for this big box

Interesting rock formation. Does look a bit like a rock house. Found with Panda Dundee. TFTC

Thanks for this nice easy cache in the Stirlings. After yesterday's climb we're way too sore to to anything arduous!

Nice and easy find this morning- feeling a tad sore from the climbing yesterday, so VERY thankful they aren’t all at the top of the peaks! TFTC

Aptly named and well worth having a look at. TFTC.

Dropped by here after finding the wa explorers peak of success cache in the stirlings.

Another amazing location, where we met a local guide, highlighting the place to some tourists.

Add a fav for location.

After the gruelling trek to grab Peak of Success, Barnzy12 and I opted to grab a couple of easier finds while in the area. The car park was busy with a tour bus but we were able to record our visit without them being any the wiser. Thanks Tomthewizz

We spend a few weeks in WA and were travelling along the coast. During that, we did some geocaches, and also this one. It's always a great way to see something from the country beside touristic attractions So thank you for showing us a new place, we would't have visit without the Cache!

During a few weeks of vacation, this cache could be found. Greetings from Germany

Forgot to find yesterday, so easy find on the way back through

Forgot to find yesterday, so a nice and easy find on the way to our camp

An easy find. Thanks for bringing us to this spot.

Easy find great spot for boldering, TFTC

Searched high and low but didn't find anything. Seems to be gone... Thanks anyway!

Picked this one up whileon a holiday down south. My second visit to the stirling ranges. A bit more relaxed this time round, I only climbed Toolbrunup and Trio. A nice climb in low visibility.

Found on a windy day on our tour visiting Western Australia - together with Me&B.

TFTC!

On a road trip with cousin BellaMin. The weather is holding out for us. Nice spot.

TFTC

A good find while looking around the area.
Thanks.

Lots of goodies. Tftc. All in good nick.

Thanks for the cache.

Awesome rock outcrop, fun to walk around, would have normally missed it after climbing Mt Trio on a very warm day.

TFTC petsb Switzerland

Great views, greetings from Holland and tftc.

Many apologies for taking so long to log this!

My muggle partner and I were camping at nearby Mt Trio Campground at the edge of the Stirlings over the Christmas break. We had just finished hiking Bluff Knoll and were on our way home to rest our weary legs but stopped in here to claim the cache. Very cool spot for one, and thankfully not too far from the carpark. After three summits in three days I think Mt Trio will have to wait until next time. Cheers and TFTC

Well worn track. Easy find. TFC

Found while on our way home from Abseiling Bluff Knoll and castle rock last weekend. TFTC

What an awesome cache, kids very excited so thanks you for that. Even saw a python at the cave around the corner.

Tftc cool place looking to do an abseil here maybe

Awesome place and Nice easy quick find. TFTC

Checked this one today and all still good. Had moved a little but reset to original hide.
-TTW-

Great spot but with the weather today we weren't risking the climb. Nice to find one that's been unfound for a couple of months. Still in good nick and full of loot. Liberated the two TBs to move along. TFTC

Dropped off two friends and took one! Awesome spot.

Found after attempting the trek to the summit of my trio. Waiting for geo daughter to return. Nice views seen of surrounding area from trail up mt trio. TFTC.

Found during holidays in Australia. Today we were on the way from Hyden to Albany. The Cache was easy to find. Thanks for showing this place. Greetings from Germany Agash + Apunda

Amazing and massive rock, and thanks for putting a cache here Tomthewizz, otherwise I wouldn't have taken the time to explore it. After completing the Mt Trio climb, I spent some time under the shade of the rock in a comfy chair and a book; a great spot to do some reflecting and reading about God's mighty works. TFTC.

We had to summits to climb planned for today, but left Albany a tad late and Bluf Knoll took us a bit longer, so decided to cancel Mt Trio in the end.
We drove up to the car park and found this one quickly after walking through a cloud of flies around the rock. TFTH

Good found on the way to albany. TFTC

Nice cache. I love big ones! The little caves where AMAZING!!!
Thank you so much for the cache! Enjoyed the walk to.

Found this cache on my round the south west tour, this cache was missing when I climbed Mt Trio last year, so picked up today.

TFTC

Arrived in the car park around 9.00am with Mt Trio and Rock House caches on my to do list. A couple who looked like they had camped the night were in my intended path so carried on to Mt Trio. After making my 900th find there I made the return journey to just as the Stirling Retreat Eco Tour bus pulled in and about a dozen tourists piled out. Waited until the had their cuppas and they soon toddled off to look at the Mountain Bell flowers. Made a quick find at GZ for number 901.

TFTC Tomthewizz.

Wow found on trip around the Stirling's will need to come back to climb to the top TFTC

Wandered why this one came up as not being found. I had never recorded it, thus on a trip back to the Stirlings I checked out the log book alas, a new one was in place thus I checked the logs to find the date when we visited with friends. For good measure I signed the log again today 7/14/2017.

Headed south for a relaxing road trip with the Western Patrol Club and a mate. We stayed at Cheynes Beach before heading across to West Cape Howe and then into the Stirling Ranges for our last few nights. Beautiful coast line, awesome hills, great fishing, and some good 4wding. Gotta love this state of ours.
Quick grab. TFTC

Traveled down to Albany and the Stirling ranges area with a mate at Easter, did this cache as part of a whole heap. Great way to see the fantastic areas on show. Good to see some really interesting areas hidden away.

Nice easy find.

TFTC

One of thirty finds during a few days travelling around the south west

A quick find on our way home after a cricket match in Borden for Geo-Joey. TFTC

Very excited with this my first FTF. Enjoyed the drive out from Kalgan and the views. Intrigued by the rock and wondered about it's past. A great cache for beginners and children with lots of treasure to swap. I scored a bus I will cherish. Many TFTC.

Please Note: The CO will be on holidays until the 20th of January. First to Find cannot be acknowledged until after this date.
Thanks for your patience.
