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.

This is actually our third visit here. We are spending the morning revisitng previous dnfs in the hope of turning some frowns upside down. I really think archiving is the only option here.
 
16-Mar-18
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.

Well This one is a hopeless case and ? needs archiving. Gps puts it on private property fence alongside homes - park and kids playground nearby. Don't like looking Close to homeowners fences- looks dodgy. History shows nobody has found this since JULY 2016.
 
27-Dec-17
There still seems to be a problem with this one.
 
23-Nov-17
This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.

Ventured northwards today with geobuddy marke8183, the reprobate who got me into this crazy game in the first place. Not that I am complaining though as geocaching has taken me to some amazing places, pushed me to do things that I had thought I would never do, or never do again, whichever the case may be. It has been a grand adventure and no doubt will continue to be so.
This was the second time I had visited this gz, and with the same disappointing result too. Not sure what we missed, but it must be one hell of a clever camo. Thanks for bringing us here anyway JacobsCrew, maybe we will have better luck another time, or maybe not...
 
22-Oct-17
Could the CO please confirm whether this one is still in play or not? Thanks.
 
28-Jun-17
Had to stop searching cause I felt so dodgy next to the fence. Might come back with kids as distractions lol
 
01-May-17

Out and about today with my little off-sider Nate and Janine, while the other kids were at school.
We had a fairly good run for the short amount of time we had.

Some were easy, some were a little harder.
Thanks for the cache.

Headed out for some caching adventures with MNS13 & her little offsider today & this cache was found on our journey Smile Little Nate made a beeline for the playground, whilst we went in the direction of the arrow... I was starting to feel a little uneasy about searching around someone's fence, but the cache was quickly found & there was no need to worry at all!

A morning's caching SOR. This one too a bit longer as the Garmin and the iPhone took us all over the place. TFTC Jacobs Crew 2!

A very good find of this sneaky cache in a high muggle area at the time. TFTC Jacobscrew Smile
 
20-Nov-14
Took the dogs for a walk, not a fan of hides next to people's fences but it had to be found tftc
 
26-Oct-14
Almost gave up. Not what we were expecting! Had a visit from neighbour across the road who came over to see if we had found it. Looks like he "guards" it.
 
21-Sep-14
Very awesome camouflage

A nice cloud covered day with the kids looking for something to do, the rain seemed like it was going to hold off so we picked this little cluster of caches.

A quick stealthy find and a play on the equipment close by for the kids.

After having lunch at the nearby cafe we decided on a little walk was in order. Took a little while was not to keen on the location.

Thanks JacobsCrew for the cache.
 
18-Apr-14
Doable even with people at the playground. Pretended to have a drink pause on my bike trip. Easy find after having seen a few of these before. Very nice.
 
12-Apr-14
Decided to head out caching in the morning with my brother, and pick up a few around the Canning Vale area. We made a quick pass of the GZ, but felt a little too exposed, so we headed over to one of the park benches for a seat. Shortly after, a member of the local neighbourhood watch turned up to enquire about our presence. She was quite satisfied that we were only geocaching, and even suggested a few places that we could hide some. After returning to the GZ, we made a quick find. TFTC

After a short walk from #3, good co-ords had me on to this one quickly. Signed the log and marched on.

Wow. What a gorgeous area. I'd spotted the pink of BR31 flavours on the way from my previous find so was in a happy mood having made an air conditioned stop to indulge. Thanks for the cache.
 
17-Mar-14
The cache was covered well, so took a bit to discover. TFTH
 
09-Mar-14
Went for a drive to Brookland Greens, to pick up a few in this series.
This is a really nice suburb, with some beautiful park lands.
Found 5 out of 6, there were too many muggles to complete the series.
Many thanks for the hunt today, JacobsCrew.
 
23-Feb-14
This was our fifth stop in the series, and I realised that early on, by pressing the "Find Next Closest" button on the GPS, we had missed one near the beginning.

WarrAsh was amazed at the camo and the bison tube hiding inside. His mind was already working on how he could hide stuff.

Thanks for the cache JacobsCrew!
 
17-Feb-14
Found while heading home - just a slight detour to pick up a few caches. Thanks Jacobscrew.
 
07-Feb-14
Was out getting refueled nearby and decided to do some caching whilst in the area.

Found cache without problems.

Thanks JacobsCrew for the cache.
 
31-Jan-14
While working in the area I decided to scout this one out, as I arrived a familiar duo was searching for the cache. Armed with 2 GPS's we soon narrowed down the search area. The cache was soon found, SL TFTC JC
 
31-Jan-14
This is a nice park glad you put some better type hides here.
Took two goes at this as it was first one here and assumed it was somewhere else.
TFTC
 
29-Jan-14
Had a spare few minutes while working today to track down a couple of caches in the Canning Vale area.

Bit too close to the neighbours here for comfort, but had a quick find due to spot on co-ords.

Pulled up with neighbours across the road doing some gardening/sticky beaking!! Loitered until they went around the corner found the cache and had to wait again until they disappeared. Took longer than it should due to those pesky neighbours lol. TFTC Smile
 
27-Jan-14
Out for a few hours with the geohubby on another Jacobscrew cache run. Had a good run finding all the caches quickly today TFTC JacobsCrew

*FTF* @ 5.15am
A restless night sleep means an early start for me.
Checked my overnight emails and noticed a couple of new published caches in Canning Vale. I can detour to these on the way to work.
Pulled up near GZ, light was starting so I wandered over to GZ. As I approached, I had a guess at what I was looking for and was on the mark.
Tried to avoid the leaf litter so I didnt "crunch" and alert any nearby neighbours/dogs.
Signed the log and replaced.
Time to go and grab the rest of the series before work.
TFTH JacobsCrew.
