Im no longer as mobile as I was and find it difficult to get around to maintain these caches.

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.

Second time here and still no luck

Looked in all the typical places. Given the wind and water movement around here, it may be gone. Beautiful spot though! Hidden gem!
 
20-May-21
200 metres out I realised Felix hadn’t found this one.
Not sure why I carried on and there was no find either for me
 
07-May-21
You would think that after a big hint from the owner I would find it, but had another goed go at it this morning and again no luck! Obviously my cache sense is not working!
 
07-May-21
looked and looked but no luck today. tricky little nano. Surprised

During our new years break, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I headed to the Eyre Peninsula to travel around the various coastal towns. We started the trip with Jeep trouble, but then continued in our alternative vehicle without 4WD to stick to the main tourist roads where possible. We travelled south-west to Tumby Bay and Port Lincoln via Whyalla, Cowell, Cleve, Arno Bay; west across to Coffin Bay; and then north-west to Streaky Bay and Ceduna via Elliston, and Venus Bay. We then headed back east staying in Kimba via Poochera, Wudinna, Lock, and Darke Peak.

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I finished our trip by driving from Kimba back to Adelaide via Nurioopta. We made a short stop at Port Augusta, and then travelled back south via Augusta Highway, and then left just after Lochiel through Balaklava, Owen, Hamley Bridge, Freeling, and Daveyston. We made it to Geostuff's 10th birthday celebration event, before finishing out our day completing the Adventure Labs in the area.

This turned out to be quite the sneaky bugger, and after I had a good search, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) started to look, and found the cache within a minute. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks Kev the Rev and Tempo 0 for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

Staying at the nearby accommodation, but a caravan & owner were sitting rather close.
I didn't stay for a second look & CP confirmed the nearby muggle.
Went to look the next morning & couldn't find anything cache like.
The galahs were making enough racket to wake anyone who wasn't, but no one from that van stirred.
Disappointing that I couldn't sign this one Kev the Rev and Tempo 0

It is with thanks to the hider for giving us reason to come and see this area

We have been travelling since January when we left Geelong and travelled up the centre to Alice then Darwin. We crossed the border into WA at the start of May and completed the Gibbs river road which has been one of the highlights so far
From Broome we travelled to cape leveque to find the best beach ever
From Broome we have then zig zagged from coast to inland to make sure we saw as much as we could
We are travelling along at our own pace and so will cache and see as much of the area as we can
Honestly it’s thank to caching that we get to see so much
TFTC
We have decided to stop in port Augusta for a few days as it seems to always be a place we drive straight through on our way back and forth up and down the centre

Just happened to be staying in the park

The clue isn't really applicable to this one anymore and I fear this one may well end up in the nearby spot where it will be unretrievable..
Came out here to grab this one and the one on the old dance boat but had to give that one a miss as the rain came down [again].
Even on such a crappy day there is a nice outlook from GZ.
Thanks.

Yep ta.

Our trip around the world brought us here. Thanks for hiding and caring. Happy hunting. TFTC

I am camping nearby and as soon as I had booked in I wandered outside to find this cache. The find would have been quicker if I had realised at the start this was a micro, not the listed small, but still found soon enough. Great to find caches near camping grounds. TFTC Kev the Rev.

After arriving at the overnight stay x 2 at the caravan park, Mrs one-eyed & I went for a stroll to the water.

80m from our Caravan? I didn’t try if I can throw a stone that far. Wouldn’t have helped me logging it anyway Wink So I walked over to get it ...
 
01-Dec-17
This one was missing last time I visited [v] so when I saw it has been re-instated I thought "Sweet As!" seeing the Muggle mate and I have always stayed here since 1991 [^]

Today, Fri 1 Dec 2017 i made a swift find but discovered the cache was a little exposed and has no magnet, so on the re-hide I placed it in a nice hidey spot out of muggle view but so cachers will have no trouble [^] SL at 12:38. TFTC {in a spot so close to a Caravan Park we have stayed at and loved for over 25 years Wink} Kev the Rev Smile
