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.

Found the wp quickly but a 15min hunt around the garden but no cache. Think it needs checking on.
 
13-Nov-17
This geocache has been maintained
 
11-Sep-17
Found GZ... empty Velcro... not sure if this is working or not. Had a little search in garden but not to keen to spend to much time in light of recent logs.
 
02-Jul-17
Obviously not switched on enough, GPS was all over the place.
 
10-Jun-17
Returned to find a new very dodgily attached WP1. Hit the switch and went for an unsuccessful look. Went back and flicked it the other way. Same result.

Couldn't be confident that things were working based on the recent logs and the lack of care in replacing WP1, so, needing to be elsewhere, moved on.
 
08-Jun-17
This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.
 
08-Jun-17
Just checked and this one is ready to be found.

HINT/SPOILER ALERT: Use the switch for help and then go searching in the garden bed Smile
 
07-Jun-17
Something is missing here. Either I did not get or see what I was supposed to, or (as possibly indicated by the Velcro strips left on the wall) WP1 is not in situ.
 
28-May-17
We don't know where we have to go. Our GPS is jumping everywhere.
 
09-Apr-17
Had no idea want was happening here? Could not reach GZ. Need help
 
07-Feb-17
ready to be found - if you can Smile
 
18-Oct-16
Temporarily disables due to construction works in the area - should be up and running again soon!

There is no longer a logbook located inside the cache container. Sorry that I did not have one with me to rectify the problem.

This was our find No 9 of the Curtin University caches today. So 9 out of 9 was very satisfying result for a pleasant stroll around the campus. We acquired the numbers to access the cache container but there was no logbook inside the container. I have taken a photo of the opened container as proof of the find.
Loved the challenge here.
Thanks for the cache Curtin University

This cache could do with a bit of attention before it goes missing all together. We signed the paper EV&ILT and returned it, but it was evident that this was not as should be. Thanks Curtin University some good caches here.

Heading home tonight, I decided to stop here for a cache.
Second multi here that is not working as designed. I found the cache open and not needing any switcheroo.

Curtin University - Kyzabra found your cache The Ole Switcharoo! . The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for placing this and bringing us to this spot!

We found this one with ease. Relocked as it was open.

Headed out with skippy 46 for a day of caching. The curtin University caches have been on my to do list for a while now and as it was a sunday it was the ideal day to do them with not to many muggles around.We spent quite a while trying to find our way to GZ with all the construction works going on. Once at GZ it didnt take to long to work out what to do and to access the log book. Another clever cache TFTC Curtin University

It felt like ooh yeh and myself had walked about 5 kms around campus to reach GZ.
Every turn turned out to be another dead end or closed off area but when we eventually got there we were glad it was a Sunday as I think it would have been near impossible if the workers were around.
The first part was found easily enough and after reading the clues the final cache was soon revealed.
Very clever and worthy of another favourite point.

Received a little hint on this one so came back today and had my hands on the log book post haste. Should've done better the fist time, nevertheless glad to have a smiley here.

Curtin University I found your cache at 5:13pm, this was the 2nd of 2 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 3119. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

This one took a little while to gain access through the closed areas. Tftc

The better half and I couldn't open the cache container last night so came back today to have another go.

This time the container was opened without problems. Log signed and cache returned as found.

Thanks Curtin University for the cache.

Staying with relatives over the road in Waterford before heading to the airport in the morning. Enjoyed the Curtin series of caches. All high quality hides, well executed. Thanks Curtin University.

Took a while to find our way through the maze but finally located the cache. Took a guess at code and it cracked. Loved this and the other caches at Curtain so am awarding a fave for this and the while series. They have been very enjoyable and reasonably challenging. Tftc!
Nb picked up the trackable and am going os soon so will take it to nz.

Second of two finds on my early morning bike ride. It was difficult finding my way in to the cache location with my bike, given all the construction activity happening around here, but I eventually found my way in. Looked around and found the first part but then couldn't figure out what to do next for a few moments. As I was about to leave I spotted something interesting and then it all became clear and the secret was unlocked. Thanks for the cache Curtin University cacher. A fav point from me.

Decided this arvo to see if I could track down these two new multis in the short time that I had.

Arrived at GZ here and took a few minutes before I spotted the container. Did a bit of googling on the phone and the combo I came up with didn't really help too much. I'll have a think about this one and come back again.

Lazarus_68 I couldn't find your cache, this was my 1st DNF for the day.
