Yeah... NAH. Dropped by with froghoppin, Purrfect Di and Jack. A good look around and we would have even donated a replacement to help but the hint "On top of wall/Magnetic (A rusted loop)" doesn't really bode well as a hide. Exposed to the weather and muggle eyes nothing would last there. A few other places lower down perhaps - but all a tetanus risk and bleh... even the tables at nearby shelter were messy, not as nice an area as it was. Needs a rethink and a solid well camo'd cache hide, or maybe somewhere else. Sorry, but it ain't lookin' healthy.
Despite a really good hunt around, and up and down, and all over, we didn't find your cache today. 
Nup... not a thing 
Nil. Nought. Nothing. Could be we have cache blindness. Could be we just need some more experience finding them... 
Probably just not there... anywhere. The rusted loops mentioned in the hint would not hold a cache safe for long and are open to muggles and weather. The other lowere safer spots are tetanus death traps - so much rust! 
Might do better as an Ad Lab point ??? Thanks for the challenge anyway Spaceinvader9 ,will place on the watch list and return asap or when it's been found or maintained!

Hey there Spaceinvader9 - have you been back and checked it lately ?? Was "today" back in September. We know life gets busy... Would be good to know if worth the trip! Thank m
Think this one has rusted away.
You pwned us n00bs.
We will return.
Look look look. You are only as good as your next find.
Thanks and clear skies from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet!

Gees Louise !!! Having a run of DNF's, like the previous searchers, no luck here again, have a feeling the cache may have gone walkies too...great spot though...
There is definitely no magnetic micro cache stuck to a brown loop. Climbed up and grabbed onto all the brown loops and didn't find it.
After a searching from the bottom then climbed to the top of the wall no luck finding this one. Might have been taken.
Pretty sure found the loop with aggregate missing to drop a nano in but climbing up on the wall tempting for most kids, from the top it would be easily spotted and muggled.
This bird couldn’t scale the wall, so it was up to Picca2. Not sure if she had any idea what she was even looking for. Alas we came up empty handed.
Heute haben wir rund um Port Augusta und Whyalla einige Caches gesucht. Leider konnten wir diesen nicht finden. Dennoch Danke fürs herführen. Liebe Grüsse aus der Schweiz, CMJost

On top of the brown brick wall Magnetic nano stuck to a tiny rusted brown loop and is a tiny green nano now
After wandering around W.A. for the last 3 months, caravanning, caching and hunting wildflowers we are slowly making our way home to Adelaide. Decided to try some caching on a very windy day. Nearly got blown over a few times. No luck here today. Thanks anyway.
Looked around for about 45 mins. I notice in the previous logs that the cache has previously been moved. Maybe the coordinates and hint is no longer correct?
Needs replacing, dose this one, back off line again, sorry hopefully have it replaced ASAP
Heading over to tackle a few days on Eyre Peninsula with Mattycat and Perfect Di, Day 1 had us picking a few up in town, starting with a walk along the foreshore, this one evaded us, maybe the satelitte gods were against us or we need more practice till next visit

Saw the maintenance log so made the trip back to Whyalla to find some old dnfs. Sadly this one really doesn't seem to be at the given coordinates, and plenty of nearby possible hides were checked too, piles of rocks and other nooks and crannies.
Searching with Purrfect Di, Jack, and two x froghoppin. No sistemas, not even a mint tin.
Just rubbish everywhere.
Disappointing

Thanks Spaceinvader9 for the cache. It’s #1616 for us. We found your cache on 13 August 2022. Found just lying on the ground in full view of the world about 29m from GZ. Have replaced as close to GZ as we can for CO to for CO to find
Another disappointed venture. Given it has already been reported. If you can't maintain, ask a friend or disable until you can please
Sadly not today. Nothing to be found at gz but rubbish and loo paper !!! 
why do people do that?
Expanded the search. With friends. No luck.
If cache was moved as per CO note, were the coordinates updated? The hint may not be as useful as it once was.
May need an owner checkup and/or tlc.
Will watch and return!!!

Could not locate this one this morning but it was still a great place to come and visit so no problems at all being here
We were having a drive around Whyalla this morning and came up here to look at the great views. [^]
While I was here I came around to find this cache which was soon spotted as I walked towards GZ.
Thanks for the cache Spaceinvader9.

After some overnight rain, it turned out to be a quite nice day with a blue sky appearing, less chilly and windy. Admired the views of the circular jetty before making a quick find when muggles checking out the gun moved off. Thank heavens it wasn't another nano on a gun hide!! Thanks Spaceinvader9
Found with richlink today while caching around Whyalla enjoying the improved weather.
We enjoyed a walk along the beach front and then up to the lookout and around the jetty.

*FTF* @0810. Saw this one pop up yesterday but knew I needed a find today so held my breath in hope that a ftf was still on offer this morning. And to my surprise it was. A quiet morning on the hill with the drizzle rain kept the walkers away making for an easy find. Fingers crossed this one lasts as it might be a bit exposed. TFTC
