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.

21-Jul-17
We were held over in Alice for a little bit longer than expected with mechanical difficulties and what better than to fill in the time to go caching in an area we hadn't been to before and we have to say that it is a fantastic area. The scenery was spectacular, the walk was nice and easy
but unfortunately on this series we had a few DNF's and replaced number 2,
We did this over two days and really enjoyed both visits

Many thanks Alice Caching, apologies for the generic log.

Find #2048

After heading out to Hermannsburg and back collecting caches, the geoboy was suffering a little motion sickness so the geofamily dropped me off to walk through the Desert Park and collect a few caches while they headed back to camp for a nap.

Although it was a hot afternoon, I had fun on my walk collecting a few caches and then decided to walk all the way back to camp, walking 12km in 2.5hrs.

I flew into Alice Springs to meet up with my caching mates Sol de Lune, Albida33 and LuckyL10n (signing mostly as ALFS) to attend the Red Centre Experience and then venture up north to Darwin and then east into Qld before heading south for home - a three week caching trek.

Next stop for the day. A quick find at GZ. Signed the log, replaced the cache, and it was off to the next cache.

Alice trip 2017. Day 12. Today was the third day of the Alice Springs Red Center event. The day took Sol de Lune, Luckyl10n, Fitzy_1965 and I on the Larapinta road loop to the chasms and Hermansberg. A very long day but plenty of great places to see.

Thanks.

#6861 - 08:12; Day 14 of the Alice Mega Road Trip with Sol de lune, albida33 and fitzy_1965, so signing logs as A.L.F.S. We are in Alice Springs for the Red Centre Experience event which is the primary justification for our trip. Today's mission is to cache around a loop along Namatjira Drive to Tyler's Pass then back along Larapinta Drive via Hermannsburg. The trip resulted in 48 finds and no DNFs! Have to love that Cool All caches found were in good order, including this one which we took a short detour to collect on our way out of town. TFTC Alicecaching Smile
 
15-Apr-17
On the road to the Alice Springs Mega with LuckyL10n and Albida33. We arrived in Alice Springs to pick up fitzy_1965 to complete our group and set about the fun of attending the event.

We spent the next 5 days caching around the region enjoying the area and finding a lot of the local caches. A great spot to visit and well worth the effort to get here.

Thanks for all the caches and fun in grabbing them.
 
We visited Alice Springs to join in the fun at the Red Centre Experience, a wonderful time was had getting out and about around Alice meeting up with fellow geocachers from all around Oz and overseas.
This is a trip we will never forget.
thanks to all involved in hiding so many caches for us to find, we will come back soon to find those we had to leave behind.


Ian & Sue - Team Pathfinder uses T.P. to sign smaller logs.

A fairly edgy ride from #8 for MrsG with a prickle in the back of her shorts so it was a relief to be getting off to look for the cache (and the prickle!). Found the cache and continued to #10 now thinking that this prickle situation may be more than shorts deep. Sad TFTC Alicecaching.
