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 geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.

Still no response from CO.

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.

No action on NM log.

Looks like nothing around. CO needs to check.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Needs attention. Deconstructed cache.

Day 68 of our 366 day straight challenge.

Arrived at GZ just before sunrise. After looking around for a bit I came across the damaged cache. I have messaged CO about this and asked if they can please replace or archive. Unfortunately I had nothing on me to replace with and not sure of the original hiding spot.

Area undergone tree removal and clearance. Zip lock bag with log from another cacher and broken remains of a container found in open. Signed very wet log with difficulty and placed at base of large tree at GZ.

Found the cache and have taken the log book home to dry it out. I've placed a temporary log and zip lock bag in container. I plan to ride it back later in the day; God willing.

Attempted drying of log complete and returned. I have left my replacement with it.

A great hiding place. The skeeters are very happy to greet you.

Many thanks for the cache.

The log is very wet and can't be signed

Found it but the paper was drenched needs to be replaced.

I was in the area today, and with some free time up my sleeve, I decided that I would have an attempt at finding this cache. This one was found after a few minutes of searching. Log needs replacing, but I took a photo as proof of find.
mikemike741, I found your cache ‘Whaleback Park’ today. It was the First find of two finds today and my total count now lies at 941. The cache was found in a good condition, so I added my signature to the log book and I replaced it as I found it. Thank you for the cache, the hide and for bringing me to this location.

couldnt write in log as its really wet and yuck but bit of a place to hide with all the spider webs around....

Parked at the golf course to eat my lunch and had a bit of spare time before an afternoon meeting so had a wander over to get the find.
Hadn't checked the previous logs and found the container saturated with no spare logs or bags in me.
I was able to get my name on the log sheet and replaced everything before heading back to the car.
Had a quick chat with a couple of curious muggle groundskeepers as I was returning to the car who had spotted me while searching that I hadn't noticed on approach to GZ. Explained what it was all about and we all headed off to continue our work for the day. TFTC.

Easy find now it stopped raining. Which is why it was full of water. Everthing soaked. Could not write in log. TB out. Going on a trip.

Out for a quick Easter Monday evening cache hunt with Barnzy12 to pickup a few duck43 caches amongst some newer ones around the parkwood area.

We had some pretty good luck even in the dark picking up a number of difficult ones which have been very appropriately rated aswell I might add. Was surprised to have such a successful night given that we've been a bit slack with our numbers of late! Especially after or northwest Western Australia trip.

We seem to think that duck must like to get his webbed feet wet which isn't great for us mere mortals in thongs I might add.

All caches found in good order and many a favourite point given. Thanks for the hides.

Found it. Nice hide. Log book damp. Have dropped a trackable into cache. TFTC

Treated the local mozzies to dinner, TFTC

Out caching with Caroline ( Clan-wallace ) TFTC

Lot was wet so here's a pic... found some time ago now thanks for cache

Needs attention.

My Jackylegs had to come up to the city today to pick up his brother from the airport and suggested we do a bit of caching before his flight arrived. Didn't need to twist my arm at all I might add. We made a relatively early start and after our traditional maccas breakfast, headed northwards. Found this one after a bit of scratching around. As others have reported, this one was swimming with water and the log is sodden. Signed it and emptied out water but it urgently needs some TLC. Thanks for the smiley though mikemike741

Had to pick up my brother from the airport today, so ev and I decided to hit a couple of caches first.tftc, sl, tnln.

Another good cache found by us today. SL TFTC

Over Lynwood way find s few caches. This was the first, found after getting a bit wet.

Thanks mikemike741 for the cache.

Found Whaleback Park. TNLN SL TFTH mikemike741.

I was in the area so stopped by for a search for this one. Found it after a quick look. There was water inside the container but the log book was still reasonably dry - dry enough for me to sign. Thanks for the cache mikemike741.

Tnln. Contents were a bit soggy.

Found after a brief hunt around. Things were a bit damp. TFTC mikemike741.

We were in the area when this cache popped up on the Nuvi, so we pulled up hopeful of a quick find... Turns out it was very quick, found even before my GPSr had caught up

TFTC mikemike741 Cache & logbook were damp & smelly, not sure how the container will hold up with winter upon us.

Nice Cache nicely tucked away Container had water on the inside so wiped it out Log was ok to write on so signed and replaced where found TFTC mikemike741

How low can you go...

Tftc

Nice spot...good place to improve driving skills

Thanks for the hide. It's exactly where I thought it was going to be, but I didn't see it at first!

Tftc

Out geocaching with the geowife!

Woo hoo number 2 for the day! Tftc

Our very first find!

Took a while but managed to locate. Tftc

We found the cache and also a bug trap!

It took a little while to find but its low down. Good geocache to find.

Nice and easy grab just off road. Log is damp but otherwise cache (and rock) is in good condition. Tftc

Out with the grandcacher and got this in the rain.

Took a little while crawling around on the ground bit great hiding spot

Log book and note are damp but still able to write on. Pencil is also wet but should dry out. I advise bringing your own pen/pencil In case it is too wet to use. If it doesn't dry out it will get replaced soon.

After picking up a local puzzle, this was a nice stroll away and a quick find after circling a couple of times. TFTC!

This turned out to be my last cache for the afternoon, as it was getting late and I needed to be home to go out for dinner. A quick and easy find here. Thanks for the hide mikemike741!

Found

Found searching with princess011077

Yeah, was nearly on a DNF hat trick! Quick find to boost the confidence

Grabbed the WAGB tb to take on a trip down south this weekend

This was a long way for me to ride to log a find and the ride home into a hideous head wind reminded me why I don't often venture this far south. Really, first world problem though, since the temperature was perfect for a ride and the sun was shining gloriously. I was pleased to log a quick find here. I admired the georock and signed the log. Thanks for the cache mikemike741.

Met up with iluvtrekking, JacobsCrew2 and Barnzy12 to grab a few caches before attending the Cito event in Kelmscott. A quick find here. Thanks mikemike741

Set off early this morning with richlink to link in with JacobsCrew2 and Barnzy12 and do our bit at the Kelmscot CITO Event. This was one of many caches found while in the area. Thanks mikemike741

TFTC! Found whilst in the area for the CITO event with JacobsCrew, Richlinks and ILuvTrekking. Thanks

This one had me searching for a bit, over, under and around . Was just about to give it a miss when something caught my eye . I was able to add my name to the book and I moved away quite chugged that this did not turn into a DNF

I'm looking forward to meeting other geocachers at WA GOES BIG IN 2015, in Busselton.

Registrations are now open - log your 'Will Attend' at GC5GR5X

a quick find today.

Found while out with Rayozzy

First ever find TFTC

:d

Scratchy, prickly, but you gotta do what you gotta do to get a smiley. I came by just after dawn, absolutely amazed at how many people are playing golf at this time. TFTC mikemike741

Quick find here TFTC

I was out with Kristybelle today picking up some caches and this was the last one for the day. I parked very close to GZ and the cache was quickly found here TFTC mikemike741

Needed to pick up my one for the day before I went 'Duck Hunting' and have been saving this one up for just such an occasion. The plan being to come here for a quick easy find before heading off to tackle a high difficulty cache.

Jumped the kerb and parked up within ten meters of GZ to make a quick grab. Took a bit longer than I wanted but found on the second pass of the first place I checked.

Out for a quick trip and called in to find this cache.

Found without problems. Took TB.

Thanks mikemike741 for the cache

Tried yesterday but call of nature had me racing for home. Back this morning and after a low search , finally found it. TFTC!

I swung past here on the way home from the airport after running a few errands. Took me a few minutes but eventually I checked where I knew it would be all along and bingo. Should have just been prepared to get down there and grab it. TFTC mikemike741.

3TF! Thanks for this one. This is our favourite golf course and sometimes we are here 3 times a week. Cant believe we came here today and did not play golf. We dropped off a TB
