I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore the cache or communication from the cache owner Horsesrule1990 requesting additional time, within the time frame requested in the last reviewer note, and it appears that the cache has been abandoned.

###Cache Owner Action Needed###
This cache has been brought to my attention as likely to be missing.
After a string of successful Finds, it has now had a string of DNFs. I agree that this certainly suggests that something has happened at the cache location which requires investigation by the CO.
The cache will be disabled and I'll check back in 4 weeks to see if either
- the CO has checked or rectified the apparent problem
- the CO has communicated in a Note log here, when action will be taken
**If the CO has not taken either of these actions, then we can only assume that the cache has been abandoned and, regrettably, it will be archived.**
The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.
Thank you

DNF. Had limited time, and had a semi-decent look. Using previous hints, we used the camera on the phone to check hard to reach places, but no luck. Will take someone else’s advice and try this again with a pair of gloves so we can dig around without fear of creepy crawlies!
Found this one awhile ago but went back to let the kids have a go and couldn't find it again, so logging based on first time found will check again soon too
Finally nabbed this one after a previous failed attempt. Made the find with Lndnlad. TFTC Horsesrule1990. Great to earn a smilie here.
Very tricky but found with hunterzed. Nice one to nab after a little retail therapy
found with geo daughter coliver95
getting a few more caches
Signed log and returned

I'm so glad I was right was nervous to touch it My first Mandurah cache. TFTC
Kapelula and I today are out for our regular cache run with our focus being on our solved puzzle pile turning them into smilies.
Stopped for this traditional as Kapelula had previously had trouble locating. This time though was a quick park and grab. Hardest part was navigating the car park with all the drivers.
Thanks to all the CO’s for placing and giving us a good day out.

Finally able to turn a blue dot into a smiley here today. Thought I’d bring GeoBuddy I C Nothing out to help us, that combined with some hints from a previous finder we had the cache in hand. TFTH!
Feeling deflated after walking to two others a little distance away, I thought this one was mine. Oh no, another dnf, bugger.
Second crack at this one and had more time to look for it. Find after a little hunt.
I came, I saw, I signed the logged. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.
Cache is in good condition.

Numerous trips, countless slo-mo videos, three PAF and finally I was able to add my name to the log.
I tried again yesterday but was thwarted and after talking to a couple of people in the evening reviewed all my footage and spied the cache, not where I was told it was or within arms reach.
Luckily for me I have recently received just the right tool needed to get the cache into my hand.
Back again today and I confirmed the cache was still where I had seen it last night (it was video from a couple of months back). I returned to the car to collect my TOTT and made sure the area was muggle clear and boom, grabbed it on the first attempt.
Back to the car for signing duties before returning the cache to the spot I was told it belongs, hidden and easier to retrieve.
Thanks Horsesrule1990 for placing this cache for me to find, this is find number 1967 for me.

Knowing that someone had just found it spurred me on but eventually I gave up defeated.

The end of another caching year and the start of a new one. Nice to booked the year again.
The better half had a salon appointment, so I dropped her off and went to grab some caches in the area. Nice to walk around these areas again and grab some smiley faces to round out the year.

Out to continue the drive to 5000. Thanks Horsesrule1990 for bringing me to this location and taking the time to hide and maintain this cache. I found the cache at 14:54:00.

This find brings my total number of Finds to 4918.

Hunting for smiles with Geotrekky this morning, glad I recently added gloves to my geobag. That said I missed the cache when clearing cobwebs away. Geotrekky found when reviewing my work as GZ is spot on. TFTC - Horsesrule1990 - Find #438
Thank goodness for the geo teen that detected this tricky cache.
Not to spoil this find, but it isn’t one you will see. A mirror is required to find it safely. Unfortunately we were ill prepared, but made the find with first aid gloves on.
Happy to log this one with zPoolman and our geo kids under our team name “Team Flash”

I continue to struggle to find this cache, stopping by this evening to try and claim the find but it remains blue for me.
Looked today with muggle DIL and Shaz6611. No luck. Will look next time we are in Mandurah
Found this one with ShaunieBen and our mum on our way to force my sister to do some dress shopping for a wedding
FINALLY found it, with the keen eye of kingbannanaplays and making new friends with Gr33n3.
So good. Just moved over from Sydney. This is our first find in Mandurah. Teamed up with king banana plays and ellery FUN.
We had a small opportunity to pop out this morning and grab a few of the recently published caches close to home. This was one that we had on our to do list! Cheers and TFTC.

This is our second time looking for this one but it seems to have us beat. We will be back!!
Unfortunately I was unable to locate this cache today. I will add it to my list and hopefully return soon to claim the prize.
Had a couple of laps here but after some quizzical looks from some muggles had to leave empty handed.

So a very sad tale ....... up early and the best part of an hour looking for this cache and the one downstairs, it wasn't busy, plenty of light....must be the nut behind the GPS.

Looked for half an hour and can only think it has fallen down or been placed too high for shorties to reach!!
Found this one on an afternoon caching run with urch, something we don't normally do, but she had this one last day on her caching calendar to cross off. Not an easy find with so many muggles around, but got it. Replacing it was even more challenging though as it just did not want to stay put for a while, but did so eventually. Then it was off to the next one. Thanks for the smiley Horsesrule1990
With just a short time available to get out and about, I needed to find some close to home caches to fill the last remaining day in my year's calendar.
This was a tricky hide and a nice camo relating to the cleverly named cache.
Thanks for the cache Horserule1990.

So I was in the area today and decided to check my app for any nearby caches.
Took me some time as gps was jumpy but eventually found it. Careful not to drop it upon replacement.
Thanks heaps to Horsesrule1990 for placing and maintaining Flying High. Glad to grab an unplanned cache today. I added my name to the log and replaced where I found it.

Late log- Found with Scjaz and newbie Geotrakka. Had to think differently and the mirror showed me his hidey hole. Nice one guys. Tftc
Glad I had some experienced players with me for this one - rainbowscjaz & scjaz thanks girls xx
Found with Rainbow Scjaz and our friend who just started Geocaching, Geotrakka. Took longer than it should have. Stumped until we pulled out the trusty mirror. Tftc
Out for some evening caching straight after work to cleanup some caches that have been on the radar for far too long.
A good drive in the heat with the window down, love these summer nights.
Enjoying your new hides around Mandurah, the area is really struggling for new caches. Have a favourite point

Out with redlipsandunicorns grabbing a couple of caches. Once we finally worked out how to get to the upper level we managed to park next to GZ to make a quick find of the cache. TFTC Horserule1990
Headed out with mommy Ooh Yeh after work today to pick up a couple of caches in the Mandurah area. This cache had us driving around the country side as silly us just couldn’t work out how to get to ground zero finally got there in the end! Cool camo. TFTC
Joint {*FTF*} with PP2. So happy to signed the log. Thanks for the cache and hide.
