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.

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.

As per logs...
 
23-Jan-16
Had a look in what I thought were obvious spots but sadly did not find
 
19-Jan-16
Searched all over didn't find it.
 
30-Dec-15
Searched the area, but sadly a DNF for us here today.

Had a couple of ideas what this cache might be as we arrived and read some logs but none provided us with a cache today. Decided to call it quits and start pulling the prickles out of our hands. Further up the road with some phone signal we phoned a previous finder and we are pretty sure this cache is no longer where it should be.

We did however find a snake skin. Surprised

Thanks anyway biggles58

Had a look for this today but the coverage was terrible and couldn't read previous logs etc. We love this area so it's a good reason to return, and I have some idea now what we are looking for and where Wink

No luck today,

Found it with BissraVicky. First found on our Tas trip from Western Australia. First time to see such camo job, well done and a fav point for me. TFTC!
 
28-Oct-15
Found it with BissraFranky. First found on our Tas trip after visiting the whiskey distillery nearby. Very nice camo haha. TFTC
 
27-Oct-15
I was a little cautious here, deciding to use a stick- just in case. You never know what you may find hiding in the bushes. Thanks biggles58.
 
27-Oct-15
We forgot to bring a bag so we just had to leave everything as we found it. The creek's as dry as a dead dingo's you-know-what, but full of bushes. Probably concealing whatever animal lives in the den the creek is named for. TFTC, biggles58. =^.^=

Hahahah funny find Smile
 
I was heading to Bothwell today so I pulled over for this one as I needed a smoke break, I walked over to GZ and spotted the cache no problem and had it signed and replaced in no time at all. Back to the car and the much needed hand sanitizer Wink

Thanks for the cache.

Quick drive by cache while travelling to freycinet. Only took a couple of seconds to spot but a little while longer to make sure it was a cache. Very amusing , first one of these we had ever found. Thanks for the cache ☺

Lots of hunting around the prickles soon rewarded us with the cache. The find goes to Chookie27 and was the first one of these that we have come across. Thanks biggles58 Smile

Slowly catching up with my logging, now stopped here twice. Both heading up to Del after xmas for some R&R and hard work. Love driving this way when ever we are heading to the top of the state. A quick find in-between passing cars.
JABs.

Searched and searched with no luck. Pretty sure we knew what we were looking for but nothing showed up for us.
 
24-Jan-15
On the way to Bothwell we couldn't stop as people had bought a trailer instead of a bag. Stopped on the way out and had a good search but as there are lots of bases, not sure if we had found GZ, lots of gorse and the thought of snakes was also present, so no luck today.

Heading up through the lakes and found this one on our way.

Visiting Tasmania for a conference and VFR. On a mission today, with two main goals - get up to Mt Wellington, and find caches that are at least 2km from any other published coordinates. First goal accomplished earlier today, so I set off into an area scarcely populated with caches. Due to limited time, I could only go so far, but I have discovered some amazing places! Interesting idea for sure Wink TFTC!!

I actually failed to find this one when looking in the right spot but muggle friend AJ spotted it. Sorry we didn't have a bag with us. First time I've come across one of these. TFTC

Thought this was a CITO cache at first with the clue but little needed to be explained once it was found.

Jumped in shock, and not at the cache, but at a large spider that crawled across my hand as I looked at the fence at the cache GZ.

Oldsaint sat in the car and laughed at me, and then realised it wasnt the cache and started laughing again. Nice cache, but wasnt a shock after the first one

Hee hee wise one ... signed the log. Thanks biggles58.

Tftc. One of our omg finds.
 
22-Jul-14
Stopped on the way to Bothwell but it was freezing cold and zita lost patience with looking. She did not want to have a DNF so insisted we stop on the way home for a better look. Lucky enzo hopped out to help this time because he made the find after a few minutes of looking. TNLNSL TFTC Smile

Found on our way to the NW coast on a caching trip. Had the oohh aahh moment then realised we were looking at the cache. TFTC

One of the very impressive aspects of our caching trip along the Lake Highway today was that each cache was located where there was excellent parking. Your thoughtful placement of caches biggles58 is much appreciated. Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find of an unusual cache container. The cache and contents were in good condition. We have had a great day as we travelled south along the Lake Highway looking for and finding quality caches in great locations. Thanks biggles58 for your thoughtful placement of these caches.

We also had a car slow down and see if we were OK - what considerate motorists use this road. Shame about others who have stopped here and just tossed out their glass bottles which of course are now smashed all over this area. The cache was a good cammo. aus found it but made aus2 check it out.
Thank you for another rural cache.

HI "BB"iggles58
This was my 13th find for the day - I thought it almost my last!!!! - omenistic!!!!
Found, "LOGGED' and replaced the cache at 2045hrs and will never night cache again.
However, had I really needed help there plenty of people who stopped and asked if I was okay - I'm just glad they weren't too close!!!!!!
A great hide! No! An excellent hide!!!!
TFTC and everything else
Cheers OldSaint.
