Unarchive a geocache

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.

If a cache is archived by a reviewer or staff for lack of maintenance, it will not be unarchived.

It was distressing to see that the magnificent big willow tree that had previously hosted a cache here had succumbed to rot and was reduces to a pile of firewood.But a delight to see that the cacheing tradition has survived the chainsaw attack and move to another splendid tree. Well done raerarfar!

Out for an afternoon of geocaching to fill in a blank LGA. We decided it was time for a bit of afternoon refreshment at a nearby establishment but decided to do the walk to here first to work up a bit of a thirst.
There were some people playing botchi on the other side of the park but I was well out of sight retrieving the cache.
Dropped a scouting TB

23-Feb-18
Heading north this morning with the intention of caching from dianella and surrounding suburbs to kiara and then back home via Cannington and canningvale for a couple of puzzles.

Was a good morning out finding a variety of different containers, never really got into the rhythm of it with so many containers that have gone AWOL and require help from the cache owner, which was a shame.

Good to be back north again finding some numbers as we've just about caches out the southern suburbs.

Thanks for a nice morning caching

In the area today and managed to park up nearby so I could hunt this one down. Got to GZ and was searching in all the wrong places until I remembered the hint.

raeraefar I found your cache at 1:39pm, this was the 2nd of 3 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 4441. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

Coordinates changed from:
S 31° 53.923 E 115° 56.816

Coordinates changed to:
S 31° 53.923 E 115° 56.820

Distance from original: 20.7 feet or 6.3 meters.

In response to several logs saying the co-ordinates are out, I've made a small adjustment. Being our first cache I'm not sure if I am doing it properly, but I hope it helps make it easier to find!

I rode past early afternoon to log a quick find. There was an older German chap sitting nearby so I stopped to have a chat. He spoke about as much English as I do German but we managed to "chat" for 15 minutes. I got out my phone and he showed me on cachly where he lives so we could search for caches near his home. Like most non cachers, he was amazed that such things could be hidden near his home. Thanks for the hide raeraefar.

Found some 11 meters away excellent hidey hole tftc
 
19-Aug-17
Awesome cache TFTH took TB

Was expecting a lengthy search here given the caching calibre of those who've DNF'ed this one. But no, straight to it. The birds were incredibly noisy today, enjoying their flame tree buffet. TFTC Smile
 
17-Aug-17
Cool cache.
 
16-Aug-17
Woohoo we couldn't believe our luck when we seen this was unfound, so we headed off on a mission after reading the DNF logs, mission accomplished and a smiley was added with a {*FTF*} It's all in the text, it'll lead you right to it. We dropped off a TB to continue his journey TFTC RAERAEFAR and thanks for our certificate
