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 http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70

***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.***

Any news on this one?

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.

Can you check this?

DNF #4. Alas no luck with this one. We used the revised ordinates posted by previous finders and searched the length and breadth. Two pair of eyes and extensive search. I'm pretty sure its gone missing.

Can the CO check this one out to see if its still in place?

No good...
cant find it in the rain...
Grab my raincoat from the boot.
Still DNF..
thanks

I'm logging a DNF on this one because we did have a very quick look in the obvious spots, but with the rain totally BUCKETING down now, the desire to find the cache was far less than that of getting back to the car and getting dry.

I was so worn out by now as I had scooted my scooter through these caches. Plus it was raining so the GPS was hard to see so we just scooted/walked uphill to the next one.

Ollie, Will, Thomas and John found this one. Very, very, very tricky.

Eventually found it - a little further up that the coordinates

Yiew found it

Found with geo grandkids. No pen did not sign log.

Coordinates are slightly off still found it easily enough

On the bike, kids are at gymnastics for the next tree hours! Time for a quick series!

Based on the name I knew it wouldn't be on the side the GPS showed. Quick find on the other side. Apologies to the spider who left that fly on the cache.

TFTC,
Time to finish this outstanding series. It is the end of 2014 and I am in the area so with 4 to go, it should be achievable if they are in place.
#8 was next and arriving at GZ in good light we moved in a single direction and within seconds Nana Nel saw what we were looking for about 16M from GZ.
2 down and 2 to go, visited a group of trackables.

Second time here at least this time we were lucky, a little thing waiting for me to sign. TFTC

#1336 (5 of 5 today)

Visiting friends in the Shire for a pleasant afternoon/night with good food & drink. Had my eye on a few new D/T combinations, but in the end grabbed just the one - should have left home earlier.
Afterwards, I decided to pick up what I could in a series in Illawong...

Number 7 in the series is gone, so straight from #6 to here.

Got out of the car to be greeted (literally) by a neighbour putting out the garbage and driving off...
Once he'd left, GZ looked difficult for a night search. Decided to check the logs for a clue. Hmmm, coordinates off. Corrected and saw where that was pointing. Much better.

Quick find ensued. Would probably not have found it normally - not expanding my search radius to over there.

current streak: 170
cache no: 1325

A quick park and find.

TFTC

Took the advice of a previous finder who advised us that the coords were a bit off and made a quick find this afternoon with sesblocker. TFTC!

Yes, the co-ords are a out!! Found with 'the neighbs' on our second attempt. Glad to have these infamous Illawong caches completed!

#344

Found on a great caching day out with Mr Hancock

TFTC

Coords seemed quite a long way out.
Cheers,
The Hancock Clan

Indeed this ones coords are misleading. Quick grab TFTC

Tftc xo

Not in someone's front yard. Smart geoson mcharles64.

Found it for Geomum AKA Shadysal. I would say it is located "Opposite" the Co-Ordinates

Last time I attemped this series I had enough dnfs that I skipped this one and drove to another caching district.
Back this time with RS's coordinates and made a find. Just two more to find at some later date.

Nope another dnf of this series , really a pity but maybe my eyes were not bright enough?

Third DNF for this series this morning.
Didn't have the coordinates provided in the log by Rainbow Spirit and hate standing in open places searching at the best of times.
It could be there if the coordinates are wrong but I wasn't spending any more time there.
Another Not Happy Not Not happy cacher experience.

Found with the new coordinates. Very exposed to houses across the street but at least it's not in someone's front garden.

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

3rd time lucky. Found pretty easily with revised co-ords

A day in Sydney for work and then a spot of caching as I headed home.
With the revised coords from RS this was a quick find

Thanks

Slowly but surely knocking this series off- I think I'm permanently steering clear of the green fence as it is just too close to that house for comfort.

Anyway, with Rainbow Spirit's co-ords it didn't take too long until the nano was spotted. TFTC!

Didn't have the corrected coords and to many people around

Despite a number of muggles I persisted and turned up the cache well off the listed coords at S 33 59.648 E 151 02.535. Thanks..

Searched around the objects that could hold a nano, and nothing. Better get home before this storm hits. Despite all the DNF's, we enjoyed our walk.

Ok, now what? Nothing around where GZ could be. Widened our search to other structures and, just like previous cachers... nothing.

After reading the logs I didn't get out of the car especially with a muggle right near GZ.

Really? In there? No thanks.

Published

Gave up on this one. Co-ords appear to be in someone's garden. Plus had neighbour issues.
