7.15. Archive or 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.

### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED PLEASE** ###

----------

Hi there DeccaRoo,

It looks like this cache might need some attention, as one or more seekers have indicated there is an issue. The cache has been temporarily disabled, so as to remove it from search listings and discourage people from visiting this location until the issues/s with this cache can be addressed.

**You do need to respond in some way within 14 days, so others know you are on top of it, as well as indicating exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication scuttle this listing.**

#What should you do now:-#
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-

- **Check On The Cache:-** Visit the cache and repair and/or replace or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked and [**ENABLE your cache**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ). Then sit back and wait for the logs of praise to roll in.

- **Place A Write Note Log::-** Reviewers are not mind readers (unfortunately), so without your note on the cache page explaining that the site works are on-going, you have been in hospital, the area is in flood, or some other reason that has prevented attending to the cache, they can't tell what is going on.
So please just post a note to the page (within 14 days) and when a Reviewer next looks at the listing, all will be fine for a little bit longer.
**Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. If you have a long term unavailable cache (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 4 to 6 weeks, so as to keep everyone up to speed.**

- **Adopt/Archive:-** If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**Archive it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56), so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when a Reviewer next looks at the cache page, it is likely that they will, unfortunately, have to de-list (Archive) on the basis that it has been abandoned.

Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

**JUST A TIP:-** Have you checked out the Geocaching Dash Board designed to assist a Cache Owner in managing the caches they own? Have a read about it [**HERE.**](https://www.geocaching.com/blog/2020/07/welcome-to-the-cache-owner-dashboard/?newsletter=PM) You will find your very own dash board [**HERE**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/owner?utm_source=geocaching&utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=COD).

Thanks for your cooperation,

TFTC! Cache is cracked

We are on our way to join up with a small group of cachers to do the On Your Bike Series, today is a stopover in Murray Bridge to visit with family and, of course, doing a small amount of caching.
Our appologies for the boiler plate logs but I have got so far behind with my logging this is the only way I can catch up.
We have had a great day and found all of the caches that we targeted, we did any running repairs that were needed and all caches were left in a good condition for the next visitor. SL TFTC

Adelaide and South Australia Trip Christmas 2021/2022. Day 21. After three weeks in Adelaide and South Australia, the time has come to head home. I went via the Mallee highway for the first time in a few trips and was happily impressed by the caches that have popped up. After Lammeroo and Pinneroo was Ouyen, Piangle, Toolybuc Balranald and then onto Hay for the night. A warm day in the outback with a few fun caches done.

I have done a few caches around this lookout, so it is great to have another two here I can do. A short stop today.

Thanks for the cache DeccaRoo

Since we were here for the nearby challenge, made sense to find this one too [^][8].

Unfortunately, the container is broken and no longer water tight .
Thanks DeccaRoo.

After a great trip around half the country, up the west coast to Darwin via Kunnunura, Katherine, a amazing two weeks in Darwin, out to Jabiru and Litchfield. Down the middle to Alice Springs then on to Millicent for the Geoventure2020 (in 2021).
We then hit the road to cross the WA border before it closed due to a few cases in SA.
Now we are home with a few of the major repairs finished, it is nice to have an opportunity to catch up on logging some finds that need more information as part of the logging requirements.
A huge thank you to all the COs along our travels.

A quick stop. A quick grab. TFTC

TFTC another nice day out

Apologies for the generic log

On a fine Saturday I set out with Southern Cross Caching an Uni and Medusa for a day around Murray Bridge. There were a couple of new series published recently and it seemed like a good place for a day out.

We started at the Lonely Lookout Cache, and I think this is the third cache I've found in this location over the years. Then went on to Slow Mail, and a few others around Eastern Murray Bridge.

After an average coffee at OTR we started the Australian Mountain Peak series, with a short side hussle for some bush fishing and then to Sunnyside. Its been years since I found the other cache at Sunnyside, and glad to see its still there. As a kid we used to live nearby and my parents would go skiing and fishing here with friends. I also spent a lot of time hanging around footy ovals on Saturday afternoons while my dad umpired the local games.

Following on from the Mountain Peaks we ventured on to the SAR series. I was thinking South Australian Railways, but it turned out to be rivers. I am surprised that dry South Australia has so many rivers!.

Turning back towards Murray Bridge we caught up on some of the more recent Wandering Heroes, I have met and know a lot of the heroes, but some are still just names and I hope to meet you in future.

Then on to the Hairy Armpit Series, but I misread that and it seems its Happy Armpit Series. The former is funnier

Getting late in the afternoon we still had an hour or so of daylight, so started on the Oz Mega Signal series. This was interesting because I remember riding my bicycle along this stretch of road in the 1970's as a 9 year old participating in a cub camp. We had to ride from Murray Bridge to a farmhouse near where we spent the night in a shed in the farm that fronts number #66, then rode to Jervois Oval the following day. All roads being gravel and having skinny tyres it was a long and grueling ride for a 9 year old. And the night was freezing.

All caches were found except for one DNF, and on the last three caches the rainstorm had finally hit and we were drenched, and it was completely dark. Finding a cache by torch in the bush in the dark in a wind and rain storm, well it stopped being fun and we decided to leave the final cache for another day. Over 200 caches found and this helps with a challenge cache that I've found but not logged in Victoria.

Thanks DeccaRoo for placing and maintaining the cache

Found at 8:20 on what started out as a perfect caching day with Shonkylogic and Southern Cross Caching. Perfect right up to the last three or so, where it was getting dark, cold, windy and rainy. In the end, that defeated us, even though there was just one cache left in the plan.

We had lunch somehwer along the Karronda Highway at a picnic table, sandwiches supplied by Southern Cross Caching, chilli sauce supplied by Shonkylogic. The mozzies were a bit troublesome, but nothing compared to SXC's encounter with a snake.

It was so good to get out on one of these runs. There were plenty of old caches which have been on the must-do list for years.

Thanks for the hides

Found on a big day out with shonkylogic and Unicycle. Nice views, Im sure Ive found a few other caches here over the years

Thanks for placing and maintaining the cache.

Cheers and Happy Hunting

Came to this lookout with goingplaces2 and made a quick find. Log was signed and replaced as found. TFTC.

Came along with ilook4geo to visit this lonely lookout. Didn't have to stay very long as it was a very quick and easy find and the rain was threatening. Thanks for bringing us here and for placing this cache go to DeccaRoo.

Thanks DeccaRoo for the cache. Found on my homeward journey after two solid days of caching activities. Cache was out in the open so after signing I covered it over a little better.

While staying nearby we headed to the beautiful Swanport wetlands to enjoy the walk and grab a few caches as well as find a couple of others in the area.

After finding this one we enjoyed a cuppa while enjoying the lookout and it’s picnic area.

Many thanks for the hide DeccaRoo

Was down in Murray Bridge to do the AdLabs and this was one of the physical caches found while I was in the neighborhood.
Thanks to DeccaRoo for putting it out for me to find

What a pity this lookout is not treated well by visitiors or cleaned by the council.

This was a good excuse to get a cache in the Murray Bridge area.

Thanks DeccaRoo for placing it here for a scenic park and grab.

We stopped on our way back home and certainly agreed with the name. It looks like the lookout is forgotten by the traveling public and the city/shire council as well. Even they views are a bit forgettable! thanks DeccaRoo.

Found!

This weekend, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I headed to the Coorong for a night camping. We first stopped off at Nairne via Littlehampton, and then travelled past Salt Creek to cross into the Coorong. We camped at Tea Tree Campground, and on Sunday we travelled back via 42 Mile Crossing and Kingston SE, visiting Jip Jip Conservation Park and Coonalpyn.

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I continued our adventure along the Coorong with a beach visit, and then departed via 42 Mile Crossing. We did a loop of the vicinity by stopping off at Kingston SE, followed by Jip Jip Conservation Park. We then made our way back to the main highway, making a brief stop in Keith, and then arriving just in time for the Coonalpyn waffles event. We then returned home via Meningie and Swanport Wetlands.

Interesting views from this lookout! The cache container was in good shape, but the logbooks are looking a little worst for wear, so this could use a TLC/maintenance visit soon. Thanks DeccaRoo for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

A fun weekend away with Davidwazza ! TFTC!
