smurfit strikes again. Burekup, Western Australia, Australia
By Jez&LibScarlett on 08-Sep-14. Waypoint GC5CKCJ

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.

Hi there Reviewer,

RE: The cache " smurfit strikes again."

Following up on my "Needs Maintenance" log. It is now well over 28 days old and there has been no reaction from the CO.
Could you please temporarily disable the cache to prevent it from showing up in search lists?

Regards

Ian & Penny

Hi there Jez&LibScarlett,

RE: Your cache **" smurfit strikes again."**

We looked for your cache today, but as there's so many DNf's here already we didn't see any point in adding another.
Could you please do a maintenance run to confirm if it is still there - - and perhaps replace (or archive) it if it isn't.

Regards

Ian & Penny

Could not find it.

dnf for us,

No find for us today.

will perform maintenance this week

Found the little arr cache. But no log book inside.

Small ziplock bag lying around no sign of log.

Thanks

CO needs new log. pug002 22/4/2016

pug002 found it 22/4/2016 on our trip south geocaching. TFTC jez&libscarlett Gps's going all over, read the previous logs and watched too as the train went by, looked over and there was the little sucker.
Needs log, put in a piece of paper.

I was back in Burekup this morning
And on the off chance that making this the first cache of the day might improve me chances of finding it with a clear head might help ...
... searched the same old shrubberies again with the same result !!
Nothing found

Then a train rumbled past, which distracted me nicely
Trains are great, especially when you can stand this close to one
And as the train disappeared from view I turned around and saw the damn cache staring back at me from 10 metres away [:o]

Damn smurfs !!

Cache found at last, I mumbled and grumbled me way back to the geomobile !!

TFTC .... eventually

I wandered over to GZ from the shop, and poked around for a cache
The GPS insisted that the cache was hidden in a rather nasty 'haystack' [:o]
After a few laps of that mess, I tried a few other likely spots.
But no caches found after 10 minutes

I'll have another look tomorrow maybe

Waited for the train to pass and then snuck over for a quick search. Few muggles around but not close enough to be curious as to what i was doing. So I was soon replacing the cache and off to the next. Tftc

Took a bit but finally success!

TFTC! Took a drive down SWH to grab a bunch of caches I've driven past on previous visits. Thanks

another day out with B12 as a little teaser as to whats to come from Friday heading to The event in Albany.
TFTH TFTC

so cute

Cool got him
Log a bit damaged
Please be carefull people
TFTC

The Geokids found this one all by themselves while we were having lunch!! They loved it!!
TFTC

I found myself down in Bunbury today to have a look and subsequently buy myself a car. I headed home via the SWH to grab a few unfound caches and vizualise the carnage from the devastating fires.

Claimed revenge for my previous DNF here today.

TFTC Jez&LibScarlett.

Jez&LibScarlett, I found your cache smurfit strikes again. on 25/01/2016 at 11:58 AM. This is my find #2241 and #4 today.

Found it

Took a bit of looking as our GPSr was taking us to the wrong group of plants. When we did eventually look at the feature som 9m away we found him, obvious to all who looked in his direction. He was sitting there smirking at us, but we had the last laugh, pushing him back out of sight. Thanks for the cutest little cache.

Took the grandkids to gnomesville today. Grandkids found this one and loved the container. A waving hooting train-driver made the find even sweeter.

TFTC

muggle Telecom workers having an afternoon Xmas drink. Will be back another day.

Cute container for the cache.

TFTH

Originally logged under family caching name, clan-wallace, now relogging under my own name.

Going down to Margaret River for the day. Brian says that it is not primarily a caching day

That was different. Thanks

I love Smurfs and have an extensive collection which prompted me to stop and log this cache on the drive back to Perth. Thanks for the cache Jez&LibScarlett.

What a cutie bit damp though =) TFTC

Good quick find TFTC

Heading back home from Bunbury after a night of rock n roll dancing and a good opportunity to pick up a few more Highway caches! Two DNF’s in a row, not what I had in mind. Only thing found down low was muddy jeans at the knees. Will return on another trip down to Bunbury.

TFTC ☺

Tricky but cool, great.

Looked high and low but couldn't see it?

Tftc nice easy find clever

Wow well hidden. Second try at this one. Nice hide. Tftc

Thx Jez & LibScarlett. Great hide. 2nd attempt.

Woohoo !!! Found it !!! Was difficult to find at first but found it in the end.

alb
most called it quits on this one and the I went back and read the description, from then it only took seconds before I was signing to log TFTC

Ooooh found, placed back in the best position for the next logger with TessScott, thanks Jez&Lib

With Bossw2006!

Found GZ to be in the middle of a little clearing, and searched quickly without any luck. I will be back.

Easy find, not that easy to retrive but we managed . TFTC Jez&LibScarlett.

Ive been planning to come down to bunbury for a few weeks now but something kept coming up and i never got there. I was determined i was going to go today so skippy 46 came with me even though it was a very wet gloomy day. Im not sure how many times we got wet but we still managed 21 finds and 2 DNFS. im not sure what was worse today the mozzies or the flies but both drove us crazy whilst looking for caches lol.....
I found the cache that was here before but i must say this one took a bit of searching.Skippy 46 eventually found it and it was a bit hard to get the container open to get to the log book.. TFTC

As I was heading to this cache there was a feeling of deja vue.
I had previously found the original so I knew exactly where to search.
It still took a while to find this one and then I had trouble opening it
All good in the end, log signed and cache replaced.

TFTC Jez&LibScarlett

Had a bad run in bureau today 3 no finds

This was a return visit as I tried earlier in the month but the timing was completely wrong. Pulled up just as the school buses were disgorging kids returning home after a long day of education. Some kids lingered in groups others were being picked up by parents and others were strolling off in different directions. Decided to return another day but mid morning and was able to make a quick find with no muggles in sight. Thanks Jez&LibScarlett

Catching up on logs after we mislaid our record book over a year ago. TFTC

Found this one on the homeward journey after a week of awesome caching around the Great Southern area. Am sad to be going home, but duty calls.

Was making good time until I hit the Darkan/Collie Road - lots of roadworks in progress - so was happy to be back on the South West Highway and just that much closer to home.

Quick find in a spot I remember well - was here that I had met Mrs Moneybox for the first time.

Thanks for bringing me back here Jez&LibScarlett

Quick find by dimor once her GPS settled. TFTC

Needing to fill today on my geocaching calendar and also wanted to add a few km to my odometer before car gets serviced so I headed back out this way today.

And being so nice again I went and got Rach2 to come for the drive too

GPS had us going to a different area before it settled down and lead us to gz, thankfully that was only a minute

An easy find as could see it slightly Didn't need to get on hands and knees but that probably due to the fact I'm only 4ft 8in so close enough to the ground anyway

Signing duties done then on our way

TFTC Jez & Lib

tftc

We needed to come down this way and saw this (SWH Ferguson Valley)was unfound from yesterday so thought we would check it our this morning. An early start and we got a park near GZ where we soon spotted the hide and made a quick find. We opened it up to confirm **FTF** we completed the signing duties and re hid. TFTC.

We then did a scan and saw there was another (smurfit strikes again) unfound cache nearby . Bit sure how we missed it on last nights scan. We headed over but the GPSr had other ideas and would not settle on any particular object so a process of elimination and we final made the find. We opened it up to confirm **FTF** and completed the signing duties before re hiding. TFTC.
