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.

From http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70

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.

I searched near GZ, but this is such a grotty place, except that my coordinates check out, I would have thought I had found the wrong place. Another DNF. Needs checking by CO.

No luck for us also

A DNF for me. It was a bit of a quick search, as I was racing to get to the airport. Didn't have the time to do a thorough search. Hopefully it's still there.
Thanks for the puzzle. As Arnie would say "I'll be back!"

Staying overnight on my way to a mine site, I had selected a few caches that I wanted to find during my brief stay. I had solved this puzzle easily but I couldn't find the cache - I looked for a bit but daylight was fading and I was keen to get to the Wherigo before dark. Maybe another time, thank you for the puzzle Alicecaching.

With a couple puzzles solved before heading away to Alice Springs for our 20th wedding anniversary we were able to grab this one this morning while grabbing a few smilies as we were out this side of town. It still took a couple of minutes to locate the cache container though and it must of been pedestrian peak hour because of the passing muggles that kept appearing out of nowhere on their way into town. We quickly signed the log and returned the cache before heading back to the car, thanks Alicecaching for the puzzle and hide.

driven over from perth WA to visit Alice Springs and to find some of the local caches whilst here. Lots of muggles around but still managed to find all the caches we were looking for. Thanks To all the CO,S for placing these caches for us to find.

TFTC. Found with the help my decipher expert Clan Magee!

MrsMochila told me she was keen to understand and solve this one so I gave her a hand. I had an idea what to do, so tried out an idea and the answer seemed to fall or from there. We soon had the green light from the checker.

At GZ, it was another story. After a good search, we were about to give up and come back later. We sent an email to the 'owner' (in the hint) asking for a clue. MrsMochila suggested one last spot... Sure enough, it was the hide and the cache was found, mere seconds after requesting a clue.

What a clever hidey hole. A fun puzzle,TFTC.

Found by Mary & David at 1600. The engineer enjoyed the puzzle before we left home. Back here after a side trip to Darwin. Found it in good condition after a short search. Our thanks to Alicecaching.

Well I thought that Todd Mall would have been our last cache in Alice Springs this trip. But we called in here on our way to Desert Dwellers to buy a fan before heading bush. Thank goodness we did as I hate DNFs which I would have needed to post without this success. Nibletricecakes had taught me how to solve these during the Event so I knew I had the right coordinates just had trouble determining the exact GZ. Am giving faves to ,ystery aches that I solve or have been taught how to solve, so this one gets another fave from me. TFTC TNLN SL

Staying for a few more days in the Alice to get a few more caches. TFTC

Alice Springs
The las full day of the event. We have just cached around the local town area today.
Thanks for placing this cache Alicecaching

Hi there Alicecaching - today is Monday - the last day of the event here at Blatherskite Park. After the Farewell event we decided to head out for a few caches that we had missed a few days ago south of town. We had an enjoyable day with some shopping thrown in before heading back to the park for the evening. This is my find #4514 - thanks to Alicecaching for this cache.

One last puzzle after the Red Centre Experience event. We had been here several times over the weekend but were unable to safely search for the cache due to many locals being in the area, today the coast was clear so Mrs Shifter looked and located the cache very quickly.
Thanks for the hide Alicecaching.

Day 6 of our Red Centre Experience. Up early and out with Hevwalker, Staying a bit local today as we are all exhausted, having had such an awesome time at the "Mega". Hevwalker had solved the puzzle before arriving, so had to take the opportunity to grab it. TFTC

Travelling on the Road Trip to end all Road Trips. Kyzabra and I are travelling from Perth to Alice Springs (via the Great Central Road) for the Red Centre Experience Event over Easter. We are travelling in Kyzabra's GeoPajero and grabbing caches along the way of course.

Today Krabiboy, Kyzabra and I headed out for some more caching.

Tftc lot of work to this puzzle in and prep and solving

Out exploring and caching around Alice for the "Red Centre Experience" easter event. This is our first puzzle find for the NT :c) TFTC!!

Tice (Team Ice: laalaa, J&T., Hiltsu and kapeka) in Australia. Sun was shining and we had fun. Today we drove around Alice Springs.
Thanks for the mystery.
Greetings from Finland.

Hooray !!
A puzzle cache that I could solve

And on a bike ride around towne today,
I found the cache

This puzzle was a bit tricky. Eventually got it sorted before our trip. Found today with Tomstache and 3350 while dodging local pedestrians.

Greatings from New Zealand, in Alice attending the rather large event and teamed up with CJ-Curry, Hevic, zuse7, granvillle86a and dghoff. For most of the caches we found today we signed as TTSS (Trans Tasman Swiss Squad).

Our last cache for the day and the one that attracted the most interest from the locals, almost got ran over by motorbikes down that path as well.

TFTC

On Day Three of the epic adventure Hevic and I had throughout Alice Springs, we teamed up with a handful of other cachers to grab some caches throughout the town. We signed the majority of our logs as **TTSS** - the **Trans-Tasman Swiss Squad** comprising myself, Hevic, yorkshirekiwi83, zuse7, granville86a, and dghoffy. I'm glad to say that we did not have a single DNF all day. zuse7, granville86a and I even had races to most of the caches, and I think granville came out more-or-less on top. Thanks Squad!

This puzzle fell quickly - I blame my cryptography upbringing. What was a bit harder was finding the cache itself. We weren't quite expecting a hide like this, but D of dghoffy was brave enough to take the extra step and make the find. While there, a muggle came up to us and asked about what we were doing - figuring it was best to come clean, we taught her what geocaching is about. Cheers!

Day 3 of our Alice Adventure, and what a day it was! We joined up with yorkshirekiwi83, zuse7, granville86a, and dghoffy, signing as the TTSS

TFTC!

Out and about doing caches during the Red Centre Experience and exploring some great areas. I managed to solve this puzzle prior to getting here.

TFTC.

Our Spring Geocaching trip go this year to Australia...yes you read right, in Finland is spring now.
We visit in Australia (Adelaide, Murray Bridge, Port Augusta, Whyalla, Coober Pedy, Uluru, Alice Springs, Port Vincent and other place which are on the way those places) on April 05.-20.

We see many beautiful place where we visit and enjoy every cache what we found, so humble thanks every cache owner that you hiding this cache!

We (kapeka, laalaa, J&T. and Hiltsu) use common nickname Team ICE, T-ICE or TICE that we saves space in the logbook.

Thanks For To Cache!
Greetings from Finland

Found with dghoffy, Hevic, C J Curry and Zuse7, YorkshireKiwi83 as Team T.T.S.S. (Trans Tasman Swiss Squad) to save time doing all the logging. Got to GZ and after a bit of searching and avoiding the local muggles the cache was soon in hand.

Visiting Alice Springs for the Red Centre Event. While in Alice Springs for a week were here to do as many caches as can be done. Caches found took us to many different places, whether they were in town or out in the countryside. Thanks to all CO for placing them. A great time was had. TFTC CO's

Found it with TICE [Hiltsu, J&T, kapeka & laalaa]

We had fun with caching few weeks here in Australia ( South Australia and Northern Territory ). Lots of geocaches and many sort of them too. We saw awesome places, weather was good all the time and people were friendly and polite. Caches were pretty similar like in our home country. Of course there were some exeptions. Nice and huge country!

Greetings from Finland!

Solved before we left home Found with McLookers and Tomstache today.

Day 4 in Alice and the day was mostly spent in and around town. Thanks to all the COs for the wonderful hides and showing us around your lovely city.

All of us together "Deafgeo team... its perfect day and thank you for show us.

Team ICE on a two week geocaching trip in Australia. Our main target was the Red Centre Experience at Alice Springs but of course we did some caching in other places too. We drove from Adelaide to Alice Springs and then back. We saw lots of interesting and beutiful places like opal mines at Coober Pedy, Ayers Rock and Kata Tjuta. Our rental travelled almost 6500km on gravel and tarmac roads. The weather was great, only on last day we got some rain.

All the caches logged as Team Ice, T-ice or Tice with kapeka, laalaa and Hiltsu. We had a great trip!

We spent three days caching around Alice Springs. This is so different area than bushy flat desert around it. Lots of beautiful places to see. Truly Red Centre Experience for us.

Thanks for the cache and greetings from Finland!

A bit of work to solve this one... but before the event, I tried to solve the puzzles near the city. Caching as part of the TTSS (Trans Tasman Swiss Squad) today, we tackled the hide and were obviously spotted by people nearby. One of them came up to us and asked what we were doing, apparently they had seen lots of people around here lately and wanted to know what it was all about. So we told her about the game and she was happy with the explanation.
Thanks for the hide, Alicecaching

Awesome

Out caching with geo friends whilst staying in Alice Springs for the Red Centre Experience Event.
Thanks Alicecaching for the good hide and TFTC

In the company of troobloo we had a pretty lazy day and picked up a couple of puzzle caches around town. Nice easy puzzle that was enjoyable to do. When we arrived at GZ we found ourselves in the company of another cacher so it didn't take too long to fish out what we were after
Thanks for the fun Alicecaching [^]

Nice easy find.
thanks Alicecaching

Found it

Found on a big day of geocaching with Team ABC (Ashley13, Aussieben and us) while at the red centre event. I'm enjoying seeing around the area and appreciate the caches here. TFTC.

A nice quick find

Took awhile to retrieve but all good in the end. Solved at home in Perth before we left.

13225. First find of Day 03 of the Red Centre Experience Roadtrip.

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.

First stop for the day. A great little puzzle that was fun to solve. A quick find at GZ. Signed the log, replaced the cache, and it was off to the next cache.

TNLN - TFTC !!

This cache was the one of many caches along my 5 week, 5,000km trip to the Red Centre event, then out to Kings Canyon and Uluru, trekking in my Trakka! Apologies in advance for the generic logs, but there are a few!

Many thanks to all the CO's for making the journey so interesting, and the cachers who helped with the puzzle-solving!

Alice trip 2017. Day 11. Today was the second day of the Alice Springs Red Center event. Sol de Lune, Luckyl10n, Fitzy_1965 and I had hotcross bus with smitten Granny, then headed out for caching in the CBD and suburbs. Things were made easier on a quiet day.

Thanks.

#6791 - 08:10; Day 13 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 in and around Alice Springs, taking advantage of the public holiday to clear high muggle areas. In all the day saw us collect 67 finds without a DNF! Another great day . This was one of many puzzles solved in anticipation of the trip, so it was nice to pick it up on our first stop for the day. TFTC Alicecaching

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.

Geoboyfriend had solved this one at home so we wanted to give it a go however when we drove past GZ two cache finds ago, there was a bunch of muggles loitering around right where we needed to be. Now they had moved on so it was time to go in - the others had also previously found this one so it was up to geoboyfriend and I - geoboyfriend coming up with the goods. For a non-cacher, he's good at this!

Found with Rock Hopper and Morgan Ed. TFTC

Second visit here. I was reasonably confident with our figures so checked to see if any fence climbing was required. I was told no, so we tried again. Still having no success when three cachers from Qld and NSW, joined in the search. Their figures matched ours but we were still unable to log the find.
Muggle Hubby opted to climb over, and within seconds had located the cache for us all to sign.
Thanks for another good puzzle, and a happy face on our map.

Out with Happy Feet 1 and Grubby Gypsy to find the answer to this puzzle Signed as HAG TFTC Alicecaching

Here for mega. Out with familysteiner who solved this puzzle. Grabbing a few caches tftc

Having solved the puzzle and been muggled out earlier, it was Grubby Gypsy who did the honors of making this find. Found also with au.fait so signed as HAG.
Thanks Alicecaching forlacing the cache for us to find.

One of the first mysteries I've solved. Did so with the help of some geocaches in town for some event? . Logged at team ABC (Ashlea13, Jess and Caro and Aussie Ben). Tftc

Tftf aroha and happy caching ty from new Zealand

Nice puzzle which kept me busy for a while. We tried to locate the cache last night but it was too dark and we weren't comfortable leaving the geocars on the side of the road. Fortunately not too hard to find today in the daylight. Met up with some other cachers from Canberra and NZ as we were replacing the cache. TFTC

Find #1271
Samuel and I left the hotel early this morning for some caching before going to the Mega. 10 finds and no DNFs before 9am, pretty happy with that! All in good condition, so nice to not see any wet logs!
We parked and walked in, had a little trouble at first, then decided to check the spots that fitted the cache size more closely, and made the find. Some locals were camped a couple of hundred metres away, we tried to be discrete.... TFTC

Found with Dad on a quick caching trip around Alice before going to the Mega!

Cool cache.

Found with richlink while in Alice Springs attending the Red Center Experience Event.
We have enjoyed our time here in Alice, discovering the spectacular locations that Alice Springs and surrounds area have to offer. Our thanks to everyone involved with the event and the local caches, your efforts are greatly appreciated.

Found on our first full day's caching while in Alice for the Red Centre Experience.

Found and logged following the crowd during our Easter visit for the mega. TFTC.

Reperio at 1030.

Having arrived in Alice Springs with DOC-WHO late last night, we headed out today to explore the area and find a few local caches. This was a nice little puzzle very similar to one have done, so fortunately didn't take too long to nut out. Enjoyed solving and finding this one.

Gratias Alicecaching.

No problems solving the puzzle. So when heading to the morning event we detoured over while muggle free to start the search. Once on the right side we soon worked our way around to it. We completed the signing duties and re hid. TFTC.

Found eventually with help from Richlink and Iluvtreking. Thanks

Solved on the fly so we could swing in and grab this one a sneaky little find by me while the others were doing it the extreme sports way. Found with minniek, geotooter and calypso62.

Solved this one in the car before heading over. Found with nibletricecakes, calypso62 and geotooter

Solved ahead of our trip to Alice. Had a bit of delay finding this one as it had slipped behind. Eventually felt it and recorded our visit with iluvtrekking. Thanks Alicecaching

Solved in conjunction with the "Puzzle Queen" m4yb before our trip across Great Central Road to this amazing event. It was on our radar this morning as we headed for the OSH series. Not sure we parked legally, but didn't get a ticket.

Had a bit of an issue with getting a true GZ but awhile we made the find nicely tucked away.

Thanks Alicecaching for another smiley and brain test.

Megawat60 and I were on our way out of Alice for a spot of caching on the Old Stuart Highway, when I noticed the corrected coordinates of this puzzle, on which I worked hard before our trip here.
So I prompted him to pull over, and after a search and a bit of stealthy muggle-avoiding, he made the find. Thanks to Alicecaching and the creators of this puzzle.

Find #1958

On a quest to grab eight different cache types today (hoping that the mega will become a mega), this was our first stop.

I had to search about a bit but found it in the end.

A nice puzzle to solve. I liked the concept of this one. Well done. I tried to make the terrain harder than it was. Nibletricecakes soon had the cache retrieved. Thanks for the hide.

Found at 2:20 PM GAFF1 in the company of NurseHayley, maccamob, DiMorgan, Grub Fred and Happy Feet.
Worked out the logistics and off we go to do the series on our bikes. Great fun!. Took around 2.5 hours to complete.
