Last Resort Cable Beach, Western Australia, Australia
By Team Tuff on 04-Oct-05. Waypoint GCQVB2

I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, Team Tuff, requesting additional time.

An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.

Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

###Cache Maintenance Visit Required please.###
This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache. See the [GCHQ Health Score](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713) process.
I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it checked by the Cache Owner.

The cache owner needs to:

* Take action to restore the cache or address any issues such as correcting the D/T rating.
* Re-enable the cache by posting an Enable log
* Post an Owner Maintenance log to advise what has been done, and to clear any Needs Maintenance attribute which is present.

Otherwise :
* Post a Note Log to request more time if necessary, or provide other information..
**Do not use an Owner Maintenance log for this, that is for use only **when you actually do something to repair the cache**.

Alternatively:

* Archive the cache, and remove any remaining geo-litter from the site.

In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page to await owner action by Team Tuff and to take it off the playing board to prevent further geocaching community inconvenience.
[Please see the maintenance section of the Geocache Hiding Guidelines.](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance)
**I will check back in 30 days** to see that action has been by the CO.
If nothing has happened, I will assume that the cache has been abandoned and, unfortunately, I will need to Archive this cache.
*Caches archived because of lack of maintenance/abandonment will not be unarchived.*

The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is there, and in good condition, waiting to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.

Please see [my profile page](https://www.geocaching.com/p/default.aspx?u=Balayang) for additional information.
Thank you

I have found this cache before and saw a lot of DNFs so I went back to check on the cache today. It is Definitely gone. A muggle may of thought it was trash and disposed of it. The cache is sadly at the end of its life unless the cache gets replaced.

This was a really fun cache, Thankyou for making this for us Team Tuff!

I am 99% sure the cache is stolen or gone missing. looked for it for a good 13.3 mins, so can the owner please check it is still there! Rip the cache

Another DNF. The bush/tree at GZ has been burnt. Someone mentioned finding a mintie tin, which is a micro. This is rated a regular, so the cache could have been missing for sometime. The mintie tin sounds like a throwdown, which means someone else should have logged a DNF too. Needs CO to check.

NM.

Looked for a good 10minutes

No luck

TFTC ️

Tassie explorer

Found in the dark!
Easy peasy lemon squesie
Forgot a pen as usual

It’s a black mint container. Log has been damaged

Found it!
Trees looked burnt and didn’t have pen so took photo instead

TFTF. Prickly bushes now our legs are itchy.
A mint tin not a Tupperware container

Log is looking a bit ratty. Nice spot though and we picked a beaut day for it. TFTC

Catching up on some late logs, now that I have time, while travelling.

We are on the road travelling up through central Australian and down the coast of WA. I was happy to grab a few caches along the way and this was one of them.

This was a bit of an effort, with prickled legs and the wrong size container. Got there in the end.

Thanks Team Tuff for placing this cache and doing the maintenance, so we can enjoy finding it.

We found it

Needs maintenance but found it through the spiky grass!

Tricky to find, until we read it was a mint box not the Tupperware container

TFTC, good find

TFTC Tried to find it a year ago. Success today!

Shared the find here with goingplaces2. The log was signed and replaced. No problem in finding it. TFTC.

This was an easy find along with ilook4geo, but the cache container has morphed into a regular mint tin. It is located in the position indicated on the cache page. Thanks go to Team Tuff for this cache placement.

That grass is savage

Should have worn long pants for this one. The scrub was a bit scratchy. Never the less we were able to find this one quickly so that we could get out of the heat. tftc

Came for a caching hunt before we leave to return home, brought the grandchildren along to help. Found in good time, SL TFTH

Quick find by Barneycache. Strolling along this path during the hottest part of the day was sweaty work, we headed to the store for an icy pole afterwards. TFTC

No luck finding this one.

No luck

We look everywhere and it was either hidden very well or it’s been taken :/

Found

Picked the wrong day to wear thongs TFTC

Found with Panda Dundee. TFTC

Up early for some geocaching before the heat fires up! Quick find made here today with Minergal TFTC

Forgot pen, will try and come back

It needs a bigger container and a new logbook but it was great walk, easy to find. Thank you for the adventure

Found before heading over to a camel ride at sunset, been an amazing time here and thanks for the cache with more lovely beach views

We enjoyed our time in Broome, checked out the sunset on many afternoons and had a nice sunset dinner at Zander’s. TFTC

Nice try

Could not find it

Found on an early morning walk, trust the GPS. TFTC

Another smiley in Broome with Burns345! Cheers

Quick find put back as found. TFTC

Found while in town for a few days.
Thanks

My first find in Broome and another shire checked off. TFTC

Too hot today

17/10/21.

Easy spot trust your gps small black tin

Found a bit of the logbook but couldn’t locate the cache!! Not sure if needs maintenance or if I was just looking in the wrong spot

Found bit no pen.
Pic attached

Sorry for the late log - Found with my Mum TFTC

Found -back in Broome for the third time this season TFTC

Got it

Got a bit over searching tree stumps in 36 degree heat & decided to give this one away.

It helps if you know that you are looking for a mint tin. TFTC Team Tuff

Nice find late night walk thanks

Hired a pushie to get around and cycled up at sunset to grab this one. Thanks Team Tuff for my first Broome cache.

Super cleaver hide! Coordinates are spot on! Looking for a painted eclipse tin!

Having escaped lockdown in Sydney due to a requirement to work, I left Darwin for a nine-day holiday in Broome, then headed down to Perth for ten days. It was great to find geocaches and make new friends along the way!
I got up early today and rode my hired bicycle to Cable Beach to get the local virtual cache. There was a glorious white rainbow (photo attached). Sadly, I could not find this cache anywhere. It's the only blue-circle-sad-face that I have in Broome...
Thanks anyway, Team Tuff.

Would loved to of crossed this one off the list on this trip however sadly a DNF from me here today.

TFTC still there intact, it is a eclipse tin. Clever hide.

Quick find because the last finder said that it is micro, tftc!

Nice stroll but no goal

Hoping this gets attention soon

Couldnt find it, gps were changing directions. I really tried

Did not find this one, GPS was constantly changing the location, the GPS coordinates need redoing. Annoyed that we couldn't find it.

Nice little hide, forgot my pen so have left a photo of the cache.

A cunning hide. Tftc

Tftc

Parked at the carpark and found this one as the crow flies - spinifex grass! Tftc

Tftc great place for walking

My first find on my first trip to Broome.

TFTC .

TFTC.
The GPS is spot on but it’s a mint tin, not a Tupperware container. There are plenty of log sheets now.

Thanks for the cache.
Nice quick one.
Hot walk in.

Needs a new log sheet

Tftc Team Tuff. After 30 hrs in iso, our tests came in negative so off into the wild blue and red of Broome on a hired bike. Started at the airport, then treddled over to Cable Beach and a little bit of a look but found it at gz. Pulled out a to surprisingly.

Left a very special trackable in it! Go travel the world Pete! XX

Nice easy find

Thank you! I headed off on a two week group tour of the Kimberley, from Broome to Kununurra via the Gibb River Road, then back via the Great Northern Highway. Being an organised trip, all caching was opportunistic rather than planned.
After the trip I had a couple of days in Broome, and headed down to Cable Beach (and this cache!).

TFTH Team Tuff - Holidaying at Cable Beach for a few days! Out for an early morning walk along the beach before taking the sandy bush track to retrieve the cache. Nice hide.

Spending a day in Broome exploring the area and we followed this sandy path to the cache. All good here log signed and replaced as found. Thanks Team Tuff.

Nice little walk. Trust the GPS instead of other people’s footprints ... coordinates are spot on Container is different to the description... it’s a camouflaged mint tin, a tiny bit higher than we expected. We enjoyed finding this one. TFTC

In Broome on holidays, visit to Cable Beach a must! Beautiful flowering native wildflowers nearby

Nice easy One, tftc

Quick find, coordinates were spot on. TFTH

Cache seems to be in decent condition, cool to find the first cache up here, cheers

TFTC plenty of room left on the log quick detour before jacko flys out

Cache container is different to the description but excellent co-ords lead straight to it. Really enjoyed the area.

TFTC

Found it. On our delayed holiday in Broome I noticed this cache close to our accommodation so I had to get a smiley face.
Easy find with coordinates spot on.
Thanks for the cache

In Broome for week and up early tracking down a couple of smilies before the heat really sets in. Description mentions sparse scrub, nothing sparse around here this time of year. Took a few minutes to locate the correct tree but when I did it was a quick find.

Team Tuff I found your cache at 7:32am, this was the 2nd of 5 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 6703. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

SLTFTC

Found on an early morning walk. Thanks

Now in a small mint tin. Still at base of tree

Added a little log book. Took a dinosaur to move to another spot.

Found it ... but no log as so wet it’s turned into mush! Picture added as proof we found it! Take mozzie spray.
Ps grabbed the trackable ... will move it along!

Log needs maintenance but thanks for the cache!

Left a trackable in it!

A short walk and the cache was quickly found. Logbook needs replacing unfortunately we didn’t have one with us TFTC

Good hiding. (It’s a mint tin painted black, not a tupperware). Thanks.

Found a few weeks ago when we were in town visiting from Albany, enjoyed and afternoon walk with the kids and drink at the beach for sunset. Tftc

Found a mint tin but still looking for the regular tftf!

Mint tin......

Found with a friend after riding the camels along the beach while on holidays in Broome from Bunbury. It's an Eclipse tin. Fairly easy find. Accurate coordinates.
