No response from owner. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Changeover of GPS's and sorting through "found" caches from old GPS.
Have found this cache sometime over last 5 yrs.
Logging entry.

Found when travelling for work out in the country.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm 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 30 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

Can the owner confirm this cache is there or either Disable or Archive.

This one should either be replaced, or more likely, Archived.

No finds for nearly a year and in fact confirmed as missing. No response to a Needs Maintenance Log.

I guess if its been confirmed not there by a previous finder it should be maintained.

we were up in cummins staying just around thecorner ,thought i would check this cache
but cache is not there ,seems like muggles have got this cache again as another geocacher replaced it not so long ago
happy caching travel safely cheers
wheres wolly

All we managed to find today was a smiley face eraser. No sign of the cache.

Nothing there so put another container under the bush.
My this is a busy intersection.

HEY These are hard to find with out nephews to help. Nice easy one for me though thanks !!!! Had to by myself to move on TB

We didn't need to do the injun trick we saw the train!!! tftc

No Kalamazoo's today. Nothing at all on the tracks. Tried the injun trick too. Nope nothing coming.

Sleepy township today. Easy find. Good place for the Easter bunny as long as he kept moving in the spot light.

Clear skies, TeamAstro.

Very quiet today. Enjoyed lunch at the Lions Park. Thanks snowone

Couldn't find orignal container today so replaced with a smaller container. Is covered by local foilage so might have to scratch around a bit.

Hope it survives a bit better

Cool hide

really bad water damage though almost half full with water.

Firts find for the days caching arounf the lower EP, showing Adelaide boy Starzy the ropes.

Cache still needs maintencance, didn't come prepared for this unfortunatley

Found with the help of local friends. Contents cleaned, dried and placed in a new container. Signed log with a new pen and swapped a G.L.U. eraser for scamp.

Ahh - now if I had been smart and read the logs ahead of time I could have come prepared - but unfortunately not - cache remains wet.
TFTC though.

Some things change but lots remain the same. Mr J lived here many moons ago. Contents wet and rusty as others before have said, TNLN. Cheers

This cache needs a new container. Its obviously not water tight or has damage. All contents are rusty and I didnt have a spare container with me.

Wow, all insides were rusty. I had no spare container on me, I would have fixed it. Had to be quick, a bit of traffic in town.
T - Nothing
L - Plastic Scamp toy

This cache needs a lot of urgent repair. Tipped out a lot of water. Everything rusting and mouldy. Needs to be put into a watertight container. If I had the gear with me I would have fixed it. The only thing that was any good was the log book.

Found the cache at 1.10pm. Nice easy - not many traffic today phew! No swap. Thank snowone for organise the cache and hunt.

Found at 0950. Had to time this one in between the muggle traffic on a busy intersection. Had just logged it and walked away when a council worker turned up to slash the grass in the area.

Had to be quick to avoid muggle attention.
Took whale
Left lamb

Finally got to find this one. Last time all i found was Tweety2's calling card. This time we found the whole lot. I still think that the mugglers are around cos there are still rude notes in the book. TFTC
T - Torch
L - Pig thing

Great day for a drive. Ended up back in Cummins after a day of geocaching around Tumby.. thought we'd log this one before sundown. Had to be sneaky as a bit of traffic around
T- Go West Freight magnet
L- pirate ship

Sorry i could not find this one. After looking high and low and through everything possible the only thing i found was Tweety2's calling card. I think that the mugglers have found this one. I will have to try another day.

Found it, refer to other log for details, suffice to say the muggles in this area are active and rude in logs.

Team Deltaecho found this cache, but it had obviously been muggled as we had to pread out and search, it was not where the co-ordinates said it would be, and when it was found it has obviously been tampered with as it was open and the contents were scattered. The log book has been written in by muggles of a presumably teenage or younger variety who have left some unsuitable comments not related to caching!
We cleaned it up as best we could and replaced contents. Replaced cache where co-ordinates said it should be and tried to make it less obvious to muggles but we seriously suspect that sopme local muggles know where this is and have visited it more than once based on the non-caching log entries.

TFTC

Picked up Muggle Dad, and we're off to show him what caching is all about! He had sussed this one out before we got here!! TFTC

had to come this way for work so I had to locate this before I headed on to my next job

Went for a walk after a few days of lovely rains. Even on a Sunday in the late afternoon the location is busy. A dog and a pram in-tow helped make our activities less conspicuous. It was a first find for Pookey and 7 month old Beanie Boy. It was fairly obvious where to look for the cache. It’s colouring could find itself the unfortunate target of Clean-up Australia Day - alas it has survived a few of those campaigns already. Left Glow Sticks from Clifftop Panorama on Yorke and took Colouring Pencils.

FOUND AFTER A BRIEF SEARCH.TNLN TFTC

Grabbed this one and signed the log as quickly as we could. The local constabulary cruised by as we were searching for it. I guess they would know everyone in town by first name and must have wondered what two strangers were doing taking an inordinate interest in their little nondescript park . Did the log thing and scarpered . TNLN. Cheers.

Very well hidden. I wonder what locals must think when you are searching.
Took dolphin
Left Pencils & card
Having a geocaching dedicated day. Last & 12th for the day.

Great little town that was much more than I expected and yep, the Railway Café is lovely (I recommend the Lemon Tea Cake) - TFTC

Nice and quiet as it was about 10:50PM and seems everyone was in bed which is where I desired to be but maybe the next geocache is more suitable for camping. Found quickly. TFTH

while on way to greeny & barbs I tripped over cache

This should be an easy find except for at 9am this place is so busy. We had to wait for the appropriate times to retrieve and replace the cache.
We had breakfast here up the road and it would have to be the most friendliest town we have come across.

TNLN
Thanks

Had lunch at the Railroad cafe during our caching day and then on to the cache. Found relatively easily after poking around. Left Winnie the Pooh and took a pen
Jim & Chris

My daughter lives nearby so this cache was in walking distance for us and her 2 children and my wife. Just as well they came as young Jacob was just the right size to crawl in and retrieve the cache. Thanks, Gil H.

A nice easy find, thanks.
Took 2 x ribbons, Left combination lock.

A quick stop on my way from one side of the peninsular to the other. Quickly located and thankfully no trains around!
- Key wallet, + a Hotwheels car. Cheers.

Nearly got lost when climbing under the tree, great cache. thanks again snowone no swaps. FUERX

After finding 6 caches this morning with Snowone i went to get a couple more .

Found it in the obvious spot (under a tree )

Took a 'dial before you dig' magnet
Left a key wallet

Got spotted by a muggle driving past whilst making swaps but luckily was nowhere near cache hiding spot

Thanks Snowone

Another cache that is located only a few hundred metres from a clinic that im working at, not that its hard to be far from anything in a town this size.

Easy find, spotted by work mate, on the trip out of town, heading to whyalla for the night.

TNLNSL

first to find ,saw plenty of muggles cache a bit tricky to find thanks for the cache

Made a quick dash out from the deep woods, but not quite quick enough. A very exposed site and hard to look inconspicuous. Had to nonchalantly kick container back under cover, and it is about a metre away from original location. TNLNSL One again, thanks Snowone for your caches.
