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.

Unfortunately the local council has done some gardening work and it looks like they have removed the cache. I will replace asap!
 
06-Oct-21
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 went to the spot searched all over for 15 mins nothing. I think it has been moved or taken. =(
 
11-Sep-21
According to my gps, I was a meter from the cache but couldn't find it. Not sure if it is because of the repairs being done. Might have been removed by the workers.

I failed to look inconspicuous to a family of muggles having a bbq. One of their little muglets helped me find the cache and signed the log, too.

An easy find. This whole area including the surrounding housing, was the site of the old Evanston Primary School.

Great spot! - Very fun find! Kids loved it!

Second time lucky. I tried looking for this one a few weeks ago but it wasn’t anywhere to be found. Budgie sent me a message to say she had found it so I went and found it after work. TFTC.
 
Didnt find this one unfortunately. We tried really hard but with no luck.
 
07-Apr-21
I could not find this one. We looked really hard. It’s possibly not there anymore.

Really don't think this one is here any more.

Thought I would have a look forthis one as we were in the area.
No luck. Given the previous logs... might need checking b the CO.

This evening after work, I travelled to Sandy Creek for the *Sandy Creek Sandybration* community celebration event to acknowledge the anniversary of SA's first geocache placement. Afterwards, I stayed around the area calling past Lyndoch, and then heading west to Gawler to complete the *Dead Man's Pass* Adventure Lab. As darkness fell and I finished off a few other Gawler caches, I returned home.

This was a gutsy hide for its current position, and I was surprised to see that it has lasted here. I was initially looking for a smaller, more camouflaged container, so it admittedly did take me longer to find than it should have. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks illmantribe for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Found during a caching foray around Gawler for the afternoon before attending the Sandy Creek Sandybration event. Thanks for the cache illmantribe!

An easy find as the rain fell!!!

Made the find after work. There was a large surprise at GZ that made me really think about my commitment to caching. The dog that laid this surprise must have been massive. Thanks for the adventure

One of my fav genera. Wattle day always a good day of the year.

Thanks to illmantribe and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet! [^]

The great Southeast Saunter down to the Millicent area was over. Twisted Back to my 2020 caching goals. Only one of the three set at the start of the year was now possible and should be complete by Christmas. [^] So pressure off and back to caching when and where the whimsy takes me whilst I ponder some targets for next year. Cool

Today I was headed out to the badlands for a meeting of the Befuddled puzzle solving group. May as well grab a few caches on the way. Wink

I am pretty sure I have been in the park before for a cache. [^] I found the cache quickish and then realized there were big nasty ants everywhere and they were not happy that I was there. Twisted I went elsewhere to sign the log and swat a few ants from the clothing. [^] Bugger - have to put it back now and stir up those ants all over again. [:(!]

***Thanks illmantribe for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. *** Big Grin

We visited my daughter's house to clean up before she sells it. Found it nice and easy but it took me a few minutes to open the container. Lol

Thanks illmantribe for the cache Smile
 
16-Oct-20
Nice reserve but the rain has set in so I couldn't spend time here. Just enough time to find the cache. Now that's one serious container. Took me a while to open it and it's very waterproof. Thanks so much Illmantribe, well done.
 
13-Oct-20
That took me a moment

A new day and a fresh start with a clear mind and Mrs DISK walked straight up to this one Big Grin.

Thanks Illmantribe.

Was nearby for footy, so stopped by again...
No idea how I missed that last time, other than I concentrated on the 1*T locations without stepping off the paths as it is listed as wheelchair friendly.
Nice container.

Thanks

A Girl's Caching Day Out was long overdue, so Owl picked up SA Sewer Rats and headed out. This needed some help from the Rat, as there didn't seem to be anywhere to hide a cache that Owl hadn't searched. Needed more serious digging to unearth it than she'd assumed.
 
05-Sep-20
Looked around here awhile, then checked some logs and looked around some more Red Face.
Maybe we're suffering from cache blindness, but this one was too good for us today Sad. We'll keep watch to see if others find it, then come back and try again Wink.
Thanks anyway Illmantribe.

A cacher? A cache!

Cache was found in the last place we looked, which as usual was not the first place we looked. Thanks for placing a fun cache guys. We do love your work. We signed the logbook. Of course we did that is way we play this game. Cache in pretty good condition for the cache age.

Easter 2020 was supposed to see South Australia Geocaching hosting the next Easter big MEGA event, GeoVenture 2020 at Millicent. GC82DAN. Due to COVID restrictions the event is now postponed to early October 2021. Check out the event page and our website for new details. We would love to see you at this four day event. Mega event sponsored by Wattle Range Council, Geocaching.com and many other supporters. Lots of caches to find including two classic geo art trails including the famous animated bottle and glass.

I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I

This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and a Samsung S8. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs...

Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun.

Out with some pleasant caching with hevwalker.
We were heading North to end up at the International Geocaching Day at Gawler.
Some easy parking & no muggles were seen at the nearby park.
We had a fair idea where gz was, although we hesitated at the patch of garden.
Deciding to skip the garden, we were rewarded with a cache find.
I like the name, thanks for the cache illmantribe.
 
15-Aug-20
Today clare007 & I headed North to an event at Gawler...of course collecting a few caches on the way...
A quick find this afternoon...we were hoping we did not have to tread on the garden...glad we didn't...
Nice little park...

Today was Gawler Day. After doing all my chores I headed off to Gawler on the new road which makes the drive much shorter.
Had a long list of caches to tick off but a later than anticipated start coupled with some hideous hay fever meant I didn’t get as many finds as I’d hoped for. Just wasn’t having caching feels today.
I didn’t have any dnf though which was good and converted one prior frownie into a smile which was also good.
At the end of the day had some fab food at the very well patronized Geocaching day event. Not quite Seattle where I should have been today but still a fabulous event and was great to see so many fellow cachers. After tea found a final 3 caches with JJ52 and then took my pollen infested head home, still suffering the Wattle side effects the next day.
Last find for today, met some unlikely characters at GZ struggling to get into the cache. JJ52 came up trumps TFTC

I pulled up at this one in the GeoMobile thinking "This one is in a reasonably exposed area [:o] i hope i find it swiftly".

Walked over and it was found in the 1st place i looked [^]... Love that!

Nice container too Wink

Tagged along with Michells&hound after the nearby event as she wanted to get these 3 caches that were close together before heading home. [^]
We were walking towards GZ and we saw a couple of suss people sitting right there, oh it was Erin and Alysse who had found the cache but were having trouble opening it. Red Face
We obliged and all signed the log, then went our separate ways heading home. Big Grin
Thanks for the cache illmantribe. Smile

Not sure what the hint meant here but the cache was a quick find

After getting an unexpected FTF this morning I headed north to collect a few new caches around Stockport before heading back to town and out with Davidwazza and Weredunn4 to collect some caches around Belair. All up 34 caches for the day.

Out on a beautiful day to cache and try our hand at Magnet fishing! After a successful "fishing" expedition with the magnet at the Kapunda lake, we made our way to Gawler. Arrived at GZ and we must be getting tired as we completely mis interpreted the clue...Sat down and engaged PAF and found we were right on top of it, Duh.!!.. Nice to see a newbie put out a quality container instead of a mint tin. A fav from us. TFTC
 
29-Jul-20
No alarm set todayCool[^] and nothing urgent to do for the whole daySmile
Then the phone rangSurprised and some Bee had landed fairly closeSurprisedRazz, therefore a day's caching was planned with a non hurried departure time[^]
That lasted for 20 minutes until new caches were publishedSurprisedBig Grin then the phone rang again and the words 'hurry up, there's new caches to find' changed the dynamics of the daySurprisedWinkBig GrinBig Grin
Rex and I raced up to get into the Bee's transport[^] and then spent a lovely day travelling back roadsCool[^]Smile
I found 9 Smile caches and there was only 1 Sad DNF. Even better though, there was 3 Cool joint FTFs in those 9 Smilefound caches

OK so the hint mislead meSurprisedTwistedRed Face and I looked in the more visible spot before I went to the less visible spot and then made a quick find thereCool
Naturally Honeysucker had already looked thereRazz
