Archiving a geocache is meant to be a permanent action. Only community volunteer reviewers and Geocaching HQ can unarchive caches. This is done only in rare circumstances and only if the cache meets the current geocaching guidelines.

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.

This cache was found today and brings our overall cache find tally to 10483.

Simple find once I read the listing. The coordinates put me on the other side of the lighthouse. I got there eventually though.

Thanks WorstCacheScenario for the cache.

05-Feb-20
Nice view
 
03-Feb-20
Arrived at location to decide which of 2 options I was going to take to sit and think. Couldn't believe there were no muggles in this historical spot which made it easy to search. I didn't need long, just 5 seconds for this find. Thank you for bringing me here.

Nomads travelling in their caravan around Australia. We have been on the road since July 2011 and discovered caching in August 2013. We travel with a bunch of travel bugs belonging to our sons and grand children. Where ever possible, we will maintain your cache as we travel.

We now find our selves in the big smoke! So many more caches to find. Booked into the local caravan park for a week, hopefully doing some urban caching while here. Today's goal was to tip toe through a minefield of puzzles, most of which I had not even looked at. Not many traditionals...

With GZ elsewhere from somewhere to take a seat, I took a seat elsewhere, while Mr D found the cache - elsewhere. Thanks WorstCacheScenario
 
21-Jan-20
On the way into the city I decided to make a shirt stop here to find this one, with hardly anyone in sight it made for a nice and quick find. Cache and contents are all good.
Thanks for the cache

A little quieter down the wharf today as the Markets were closing early due to a very hot day - as the Dolphin Explorer was heading out, an easy search and find - container could do with a replacement. TFTC

Lovely day for treasure hunting at The Port

In Australia for 4 months
I travel by car , I am a backpacker with a friend. During my journey and hundreds of kilometers, I do geocaching. I thank a lot of the owners. Australia is beautiful
Un énorme MERCI à WorstCacheScenario pour la pause et l'entretien de la cache ! Salutation de France Smile

I had hovered around this location many times, but the market crowd made it difficult to fossick. This Saturday afternoon we were in the area watching the Dolphin Explorer pull away and about to board the Archie Badendoch. Was a quick but satisfying find. Local theatre company Vitalstatistix is currently presenting an immersive experience called Waterborne, hence the trip on Archie. If you have the time I highly recommend checking it out.




I forgot my pen.

TFTC WorstCacheScenario! Coordinates are really quite out with this one!
 
23-Nov-19
In the past I have been here during market days when the chances of getting the cache were between Buckley's and zilch.
On a sunny Saturday afternoon it was very quiet and i was able to sit and reflect while I felt for the prize. It was a quick sign and we continued on our port walk.
 
23-Nov-19
Quick find with TubbyBooBoo and Zobo01. Left a new sheet of paper for log.

After some days in Tasmania I started my (main) Australian tour in Adelaide. I will spend a cupple of days to get a feeling for the city and their people. Found this Cache easily on a busy sunny sunday afternoon.
Vielen Dank fürs legen und pflegen und beste Grüße aus Leipzig!
