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.

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.

Hoot, Mogni made a surprise visit west for International Geocaching Day. Surprised I thought she was going east to the You Yangs event! Can only mean one thing. Meet up with the usual list of suspects and make a day of fun, laughter and geocaching before heading off to a special event that night. The usual list of suspects for today started with myself, mogni, AnyMules and Alternika and we rendezvoused at TTP for coffee to start the adventure. Cool After caching around here for the better part of the day we then started to head towards the Bay via a rather circuitous route for an evening event, a few caches just happened to get in the way. [:o)] Event done a new list of suspects formed adding Muff1, Chrispy89, HevWalker for yet another caching adventure after the event. [8]
This was the easiest find for the whole day. Muff1 produced a collection of various cache parts (minus a couple) with a log she had rescued earlier. I added my mark to the log. Smile
Thanks finnstar99 Big Grin
 
19-Aug-17
Found it with Muff1 as per their log...needs replacing again.
 
19-Aug-17
Spotted in the hands of Muff1.

This is one of those caches that we have kept our eye on as it is close to being the only cache n this area that we had not found.
The happy news is that today we were able to place our names to the log sheet, the sad news was that what we found was a cache in several pieces. Refer to the photo.
This cache container has been smashed, the pencil was in one place the lid in another and the log sheet was laying on the ground and the broken body of the container was elsewhere.

I noticed this one had been replaced so decided to come for a look on the way to work.
Lots of work going on around the place but nobody took any notice of me.
Quick find but a nice little hide.

**this is a late log** I have recently made a major upgrade to my GSAK license and found this lovely feature that automatically tells me what caches I have marked found in GSAK but never logged on geocaching.com!! Yay, Clyde, you can have my money anytime! The caches I am logging in this batch were ones I did in 2016. I cache with an assortment of cachers and never alone. In 2016 I cached with Moneydork, Ride the GeoWalrus, Locus Cacher, Liz & Bruce and Team Zouk. My log should match up with one of theirs. I enjoy every cache find I have made and do not for one second take for granted the effort going into each one, its just I'm very bad at logging my finds and I'm trying to improve. To improve I have to reduce the quality of my log and just get it over with -- for now. If I can form a good habit again I will return to my once more meaningful logging. Thanks heaps for hiding caches around South Australia that I could find!

Cache has been replaced and we found it quite easily.
 
09-Sep-16

Found GZ, but the cache container is missing from the chain. I can faintly see the cache and log down the bottom of the pipe. No log, unable to sign, no smiley. Sad

Gave it a good look, but no success

Whilst doing some maintenance on the local playground, I had the chance to check out this cache :c) I had a look for it yesterday... though on retrieving the cache, realised the container had been damaged and could not sign the log... so at home, I found a suitable container to replace it with. Hopefully the CO is happy with the replacement. Signed Log. TFTC finnstar99.

Found late in the afternoon on my way to a pre christmas catch up with caching mates. There were a few muggles wandering around the track, but fortunately there were big gaps and as I approached GZ they were both heading away and had their backs facing me so I was able to make a quick find, sign on the nearby bench and return before they made their way back. A beautifully maintained garden here that I thoroughly enjoyed. TFTC EMO!
 
19-Dec-15
Looked here very early in the morning (before the heat set in - well the heat had set in by now) Twisted.
Had to use a bit of stealth with a muggle seated nearby, but far enough away to check a few things out [8)].
Think we found the hiding spot, a remanent marking the place, but no cache [B)].
Another one for us to come back to.
Thanks anyway Finnstar99.
 
19-Dec-15
Found GZ with sir_spectre and found the connected chain Smile but no cache. We placed a new cache but may need tweezers to extract the log.
 
19-Dec-15
found it with rod81w. Well found the commo and chain but no cache, so back to car to fix it and supply a new log.
 
02-Oct-15

Found by Mary & David at 1025. Today, we cached around Adelaide for most of the day. A special memorial plaque to read and remember as you enter. Now we know what EMO means. Didn't take long to find. Our thanks to finnstar99.

Out with Locus Cache, SA Sewer Rats & Snap Happy.
It was dark and the oval was in use.
The illuminating light made the search easier without the use of torches.
After a bit of a search I found the cheeky hide.
A lovely entrance to this oval. thanks for the cache finnstar99
 
26-Jun-15
Out for a day of caching with Snap Happy, Locus and Clare007.
We had a fun filled day/evening filled with adventure and laughs galore.
A quick find for us today. TFTC
 
26-Jun-15
Out for the day with Snap Happy, Clare007 and SA Sewer Rats and by day's end I had 16 smilies Smile and 1 DNF Sad plus I learned that the difference between a Greek Yiros and a Turkish Kebab is the spices that are used on the meat, rather than a Victorian vs South Australia language debate. Wink

Loved the gates here! [^]
Pretty and interesting entrance and then a cache as well. Smile
Happy EMO for us today Smile

First find of the day. Had a little trouble with GPSr telling me I was still on the road which was a little frustrating as I was in the middle of the rose garden. Eventually I told it where to go, and we found it in the third place I looked. First place seemed obvious, but too easily muggled, second looked like cachers had given it a good looking at many times, then the third made sense (and was a whole lot easier to open).
 
22-Jun-15
This has been on my list for a while, had looked a couple if times but no joy. With a hint from a friend the cache was found on my way home from work tonight. Great hide and TFTC Smile
 
14-Jun-15
This one is frustrating the hell out of me it shouldn't be that hard!!! I think this is my fifth attempt but I'll keep trying
 
11-Jun-15
Gps was a bit off but found once went to right spot
 
10-Jun-15
Came here last night and didn't find it. Misplaced my glasses somewhere while caching around this area, so returned again in daylight. Found cache, but still haven't found glasses.
 
06-Jun-15
Bit challenging but good find!
 
27-May-15
Was back here between theatre gigs in April (around the 18th I think) and found and signed log then.
Sorry for late log, just realised it had been missed in the theatre season rush!
A neat hide, easily done in the evening when there are few muggles around.

26-May-15
Finally found after a couple attempts. Great hide.
 
09-May-15
Second time lucky.
Sure we checked it before!

09-May-15
Too many muggles around, will have to come back another day
 
23-Apr-15
Love your work and nice attachment. Thanks for the cache.
 
23-Apr-15
Nice find while out and about with Tomboy711, we had a lovely day exploring the surrounding area, I am sure I put my hand on that spot more than once before we realised it was a cache. Coords were spot on. TFTC
 
22-Apr-15
Very tricky spot, had lots of fun.TFTC
 
13-Apr-15
Very clever hide
 
06-Apr-15
Found on second attempt but only after phoning a friend. It poured while we were there so it was good to log a find. Great cache.
 
18-Mar-15
Wow couldn't believe I put my hand right on it!!! Been waiting to find one of those for a while now tftc
 
13-Feb-15
Easy find this time. Definitely not here last time. Found with3LG and the x-trailers
 
13-Feb-15
Found on a night's caching
Easy find in obvious spot

13-Feb-15
Being such a nice night there is only one thing to do...go caching : ) picked up earthlight and The X-Trailers and headed down to this part of town, been here before and got a DNF but tonight we struck gold, clever hide. TFTC
 
30-Dec-14
I found my way through the gate to the memorial park and left the bike against a tree Smile
With no one around I expected a quick cache find Razz

At the top of the small hill I found an unexpected sight [:o]
Muggle bike riders going around and around and around and around ....
.... ooh !! I'm feeling dizzy [xx(]

Spinning around, I scanned the surrounds for any hiding spots.
There were plenty, but the GPS didn't want to home in on any of them very precisely Sad
So I wandered around for a bit, poking things.

Giving up for a minute or three, I relaxed with a fizzy cola in a shady spot and stared around me.
An idea crept into me head and I wandered over to find the cache in the next spot I looked [:o]
Ha ha ha !! Big Grin

TFTC !!
 
29-Dec-14
have been here so many times looking for it and today i found it by chance straight away as i had been heading to another spot to look for it and found it as i put my hand down.
 
25-Dec-14
Certainly worth a favourite!!!! Good one!!! Thanks finnstar99 for the Christmas Day challenge!!
 
22-Dec-14
Found On my early morning run. Nice hide.
 
17-Dec-14
Was in the area after work looking for another cache and stopped off here on my way home. I had been here once before and did not find the cache. Sad
Tonight my caching mojo was on and I found the cache easily in its nice hide with no muggles taking any notice of me. Big Grin
Stayed to watch some cyclists racing around the track. Big Grin
Thanks for the cache finnstar99. Smile

As a GOTH I was looking forward to seeing an EMO however I found a cache instead. Had to laugh when Doctor Owl just had no idea what EMO stood for. Cachers are not that observant sometimes. TFTC.
 
28-Nov-14
Round and round the mulberry bush, the cachers chased the car park! In the end found one and the snaky little cache was reasonably straightforward after that. Owl didn't see any emos, just two GOTHS, but Mrs M gently pointed out what the initials actually stood for.

05-Oct-14

24-Sep-14
No luck for me unfortunately, no muggles either.
 
08-Sep-14
YAY for me. Finally found it on the third attempt. TFTC
 
03-Sep-14
Thought this would be easy and just bagging a couple of Difficulty 3s but no luck. Had a good look around where the co-ord said, but came up empty. Spent a nice afternoon out with my lovely daughter so it was not a complete waste of time. A few people bowling and one solitary cyclist on the track. Will try again another time.
 
30-Aug-14
It was a little tricky. TFTC
