4.23. Unarchiving a Geocache
The archiving of a geocache is intended to be a permanent status. That is why only community volunteer reviewers and Geocaching HQ staff have the capability to unarchive it. This is done only in rare circumstances and only if it meets the current Geocache Listing Guidelines.
If a geocache is archived by a reviewer or staff for lack of maintenance it will not be unarchived.
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.

What a fantastic National Park. We have seen two groups of baby emus crossing the road, kangaroos and all sorts of sea life down at the beach - including something that looked like an Octopus, but we found out later in the day at one of the park signs that it was a squid.. The kids absolutely loved beach combing back at the start of the park and playing on the dunes.
TFTC diesel69. A plowfive pathtag left for the next finder or the CO.. who ever gets there first.
You guys are so lucky to have the Eyre Peninsula - its amazing!
There is definately no point avoiding it!
We found your cache **"No Point Avoiding It"** at 2:17:00 PM today. (This makes our find count 15697).
We thoroughly enjoyed our trip around Elliston today. On our tour we found a wide variety of container types amongst our 4 caches (& 0 DNF's) today. Thanks for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Cache trash.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.
Went for a walk and found the cache , despite trying take a shortcut and walking even further than we needed (nice views though) .

Time for us to leave the bitumen and head into the heart of this park [^].
Thanks Diesel69.

Many thanks to the cache owner diesel69 for establishing and maintaining this cache.
The location of the cache seems to be about 6 metres off. So took a while to find the obvious.
I was not sure how long this container will last in that environment.
Then I read in the notes that the original may have been sturdier.
Left the contents out of the container to dry out, with rocks over the plastic bags. Container lid left off as well to dry out. Really nice spot.

I drove into the National Park four days ago and did not detour out to the point.
On my drive out of the park today I could avoid it no longer [:o]
The views, as to be expected, were spectacular
The surf crashing into the cliffs below, kept me mesmerised for half an hour on the way to the cache
Such big waves !!
I did eventually make it to GZ and after a bit of a look around, found the cache
Needs some TLC though !!
The container has been chewed and the insides are wet.
I couldn't sign the logbooks, so left a few new bits of paper in a small zippy bag.
My stroll back to the geomobile took another half hour as I was constantly distracted by the views [^]
Top spot !!
We hand picked all the caches this time on our way over and the caches that we did in Port Lincoln as its quite over whelming arriving at a new location with so many caches.. at the end of the day we use caching to make the drive to a location more interesting and not to do every single cache in the town.. as that will be no holiday at all. Gotta leave some for the next trip right?
Please forgive us for a generic log, as we are logging days after doing these caches, We enjoy the challenge of every cache and we try to put custom comments on the ones we remember.
Today we Traveled to Coffin Bay and surroundings.. plus a bit of a coastal walk when we got back
Thanks for the cache Diesel69
Today we did not even think of avoiding it... grabbed in between muggles
Until next time - First thing you know I'll be back in Bow River again
The day was looking to be great, weather was beautiful and some great sights were in store for us today
What a beautiful area loved the walk and would love to be able to go further into the park but that will have to wait till we purchase a 4wd
Thanks diesel69 for the cache
Gorgeous view.

Better DNF, as the area is pretty sensitive in terms of vegetation. I approached GZ, but then poling in the bush, which has to resist wind, sand storms, salt, heat and cold, might mot be the right thing. Walking around it would loosen the soil which then will be taken away. Brief, not a god spot to hide a geocache. There is plenty of rock around, with holes and everything, which would make it a fantastic location. In particular, remembering the first time I've got here five years ago, with turquoise waters and white beaches! Love the area!
