An action had been taken on this cache because of one of the following -One or more of the following has occurred:No response from the cache owner.No cache to find or log to sign.It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.Should you like to resurrect the cache please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.From http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=707.15. 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.

Saw that this cache was found earlier this week on 18/6 so I thought I'd pop by and redeem a DNF on this cache.Unfortunately the cache was only half there (as per the notes from the finder on 11/2)Unsure how the finder on 18/6 could have signed the log.....Notified the CO who advised he will replace the cache.Plenty of litter (and faeces) here - almost needs a CITO

Cache missing. Will replace soon.

In all our travels we would not have even thought to travel to this location. (HaHa). In your dreams, these cachers do. [:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort. Devilish Brilliant and Clever I like it Another one off the list TTBLNSL TFTC/TFTH/TFBUH - Azzo 7777 [^]

Could not find it, but found the holder. The container that attaches to the holder appears to have been removed.

Found with the daughter, log appears a little water damaged so unable to get out and sign.

Found

Another one we were lucky to see. TFTC.

thanks

No luck ??

That log was difficult to remove. A bit too big for the cache perhaps.

Anyway, nice hide.

TFTC

Hard one to find!!! The navigation is about 6m off. Ended up looking at the hint.
Fantastic cache and great container!!

When we got near GZ, we quickly worked out the most likely area for a hide. We went there and searched around. When we changed positions, to our delight, the cache was located. Although the container had not been fully closed, the contents were in reasonable condition. Thanks for the cache.

Too good for me today

Yes, that’s a good hide, thanks Azzo for this cache

Took a bit to find, but not because of the cammo - there were just too many options. The Owl eventually spotted it and sent the Fish in for the retrieve.

A most excellent caching day out with an owl and a dragon.

Another case of Owl and me going our separate ways but finishing up looking in the same spot before Owl found the right angle and spotted the cache.

Thanks for the cache azzo.

Cache replaced with bison tube.

string of dnfs.
the cache is missing, no cache in nook
confirm missing by 2 PAF calls
no maintenance in over 3 months

This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.

Disabled for now. For some reason this one wasn’t on my maint list… will replace soon

Couldn’t find. Looked at previous activity and it appears to be missing. Needs replacing

Hideyhole empty

Looked carefully for 15mins. No cache found. Phoned 2 previous finders who confirmed the location, which was bare. Needs replacing

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

My next stop on my walk around the area. I ducked off the path at the obvious opening and then spent an age trying to work out where to look. I think I had my hand either on or very close to the cache on a number of occasions. Slightly frustrated, I sat back and saw something that made me think I should take a look. Oh my - there is it. That was well hidden! TFTC azzo7777

I didn’t think I’d be back in Aldinga so soon, but I damaged a cache on Monday and have returned today to make amends. There is a nice selection of caches around here, and I still have plenty to find. This was one of eight caches found after that chore was completed.

This was the first. I think I got lucky here as the camo had come adrift, but it was covered again when I left. This looks like the kind of spot where kids would hang out, so camo is a must!

Thanks for the cache azzo7777.

Found out on a Christmas Day bike ride tftc. Quick find my mister 6!

Replaced

Cache replaced in same spot

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.

no luck today

The cache is gone and people are erroneously claiming finds and on empty plastic jar discarded nearby. Such a shame as I have been informed what the cache used to look like. Please replace as was as it sounded cool.

Well I found the empty container that the last 4 finders found. I was tempted to stamp it but I was with a previous finder who advised that it was not the cache. The cache was in fact a cleverly disguised tube and unfortunately it was not in the clever hiding spot it should have been. We searched the ground underneath without luck. It's GONE. So I removed the empty container as CITO to stop further finds on a cache which is not here. Urgent owner action required.

**Thanks azzo7777 for the search anyway. **

Needs a lid. No log book inside.

New container needed TTFC

Tftc, needs new lid and paper

Found but seems to have been destroyed ??

We found a likely container, but no lid and not log, so cant be sure.
Have messaged the CO with a picture of what we found.
No log so logging it as a DNF.

I couldn’t find it and I followed the tracer

it is a beanbag

thanks !

The only thing there was a dead rat and sorry to say but the spot looks like has been used as a toilet...

????

????

Really liked this one

Awesome

Nice bit of camouflage there. Found it accidentally (whilst looking for it) and numbed the place where it was hiding
Tftc

Great find with chubbly09 thanks azzo for the cach

Quick find when looking from correct angle...
Found 20 bucks a few metres from GZ too, it had been on the ground quite awhile too, going by the dirt on it! If anyone has lost a $20, I'll return it if you can give me the serial number...
TNLNSL
Thanks

Always good to find a cache in a nook. Had me fooled for a tick.

Thanks to azzo7777 and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet! [^]

The usual Wednesday wander of the Befuddled consisting of just the Adders and Astro. with the Starfish injuring his back and the Rat unable to join us meant that there was only the two of us available.

The target area for the day was Aldinga and surrounds. An area that had been planned previously but did not eventuate in success with many diversions seeking other hides.

As always, all caches were visited and signed by all members of the group or each member had a part to play in retrieving the prize.

All caches were in good condition unless noted otherwise.

Very tricky cammo here needing pliers to retrieve from its hidey hole.




Thank you for the cache %CacheName azzo7777, found 18/05/2022

Tftc quick easy find on a windy day

Quick stop here today on my way last, cache was easily found and is all good

Today I headed south to Myponga Beach to find a few target caches then slowly made my way back along the coast line cleaning up the area as I went. Total of 30 finds for the day.

Thanks for the cache

Haven't i been here before?

Fairly easy find.

Tftc

Swamy past here this evening while completing the Route 31 Adventure Lab. A quick find at GZ of one of those horrible tiny caches. Glad it was dry as they’re a bugger to get the log book out when it’s wet.

Thanks for the cache azzo7777.

Find #15059.

Found while on a Sunday drive in the area finding a few of the newly published caches. TFTC azzo

Clever bit of camo. The 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.

I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count.

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.

Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke für den Cache. Gracias por el caché. Bedankt voor de cache. Kiitos kätköstä. Zikomo posungira. Terima kasih untuk cache. Hvala cache. Köszönöm a cache. Nga mihi mo te keteroki. Dankie vir die kas.

Easy spot from just the right angle!!!! Found with Andy Colombia , Lukas Skywalker and JJ52!!

Met up with CPwanderer, andycolumbia and LukaSkywalker this morning to find a few new caches that have been published recently down this way. [^]

Interesting camo that...CP's eagle eyes spotted it first.

Thanks for the cache Azzo.

Didn’t take long. TFTC

Published

*FTF*
First to find on the 23rd of April less than an hour after publishing, whoo hoo.
Xtreme or not we would hate to judge, but we are sure there will be some who take up the offer to judge haha!!
Aldinga is definitely Azzo land, the CO must own a huge percentage of the caches in this area, and we enjoy finding them too. Nice hint did definitely assist in the find though.
There is now a category in sport called Xtreme now.....

The definition of extreme sports is not exact and the origin of the terms is unclear, but it gained popularity in the 1990s when it was picked up by marketing companies to promote the X Games and when the Extreme Sports Channel and Extreme International launched. More recently, the commonly used definition from research is "a competitive (comparison or self-evaluative) activity within which the participant is subjected to natural or unusual physical and mental challenges such as speed, height, depth or natural forces and where fast and accurate cognitive perceptual processing may be required for a successful outcome" by Dr. Rhonda Cohen (2012)

While the use of the term "extreme sport" has spread everywhere to describe a multitude of different activities, exactly which sports are considered 'extreme' is debatable. There are, however, several characteristics common to most extreme sports. While they are not the exclusive domain of youth, extreme sports tend to have a younger-than-average target demographic. Extreme sports are also rarely sanctioned by schools for their physical education curriculum. Extreme sports tend to be more solitary than many of the popular traditional sports (rafting and paintballing are notable exceptions, as they are done in teams).

Activities categorized by media as extreme sports differ from traditional sports due to the higher number of inherently uncontrollable variables. These environmental variables are frequently weather and terrain related, including wind, snow, water and mountains. Because these natural phenomena cannot be controlled, they inevitably affect the outcome of the given activity or event.

In a traditional sporting event, athletes compete against each other under controlled circumstances. While it is possible to create a controlled sporting event such as X Games, there are environmental variables that cannot be held constant for all athletes. Examples include changing snow conditions for snowboarders, rock and ice quality for climbers, and wave height and shape for surfers.

Whilst traditional sporting judgment criteria may be adopted when assessing performance (distance, time, score, etc.), extreme sports performers are often evaluated on more subjective and aesthetic criteria. This results in a tendency to reject unified judging methods, with different sports employing their own ideals[10] and indeed having the ability to evolve their assessment standards with new trends or developments in the sports.

We dont do extreme anything, even caching is the sedate ones. Thanks Azzo for the cache, found, signed and replaced as found. TNLN

Can't get log out of container as it's too small. But found it non the less. Needs a new container to be able to write your name
