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.

Unfortunately this one appears gone and after trying to contact the owner, talking to previous finders, this one has seen better caching days. RIP clear skies.
You pwned us n00bs.
We will return. Maybe not. . We checked out the location after a heads up from previous finder. I’d attempted this about 2 years ago but the weather not favourable.
Look look look. You are only as good as your next find.
Time to be SBA I’m afraid after no response from owner on a number of occasions.
Thanks and clear skies from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet!

Had a dig around but only found a lizard and a mouse and what the previous searchers found .Is it still there? ??
Nice drive on the beach
Nice drive on the beach
Seems strange that no-one's been here in nearly a year .
Made our way to/from GZ without needing to let our tyres down today . The post is buried in sand now, so we dug down in case the cache was there, but had no luck [B)].
Looked further afield, but after finding a couple of possible remanents (see pics), couldn't locate this one today .
Looks like we'll have to come back another time. In the meantime, we'll keep watch to see if someone else finds it [8].
Thanks anyway Gold Nugget 77.

Our third day of camping at Meningie for the Australia Day Long Weekend. We decided to head down to Kingston today and clear out around there and do some 4WDriving along the beaches. We drove along the beach from Kingston. Parked and walked up to GZ. Personally I don't agree with this type of Container as they can be dangerous, but I can see the intent of the camo. TFTC
A weekend of caching with Freddo down at the South East.
We went as far as the Little Deset National Park.
A pleasant drive along the beach for us.

We went for a cruise along the beach today, whilst down th8lis way, think we were lucky with a lowish tide?
Wasn't too hard to find.

Walked along the beach from the Blackford Drain. Longer walk than I expected. It was very pleasant though, and a quick find. Thanks!
We weren't planning to do this today but a low tide and the fact that we were trying for 24 caches in 24 hours meant we chanced a trip on the beach in the 2WD car and found it. It was not where we expected to find it that's for sure. TFTC
nice one TFTC
