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.

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.

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.

Unable to locate this one, with 3 of us looking in all of the obvious places and using the hint we left empty handed, could the CO please investigate?

After 4 DNF's can the CO please confirm if the cache is still available?

Ok ... time for a road trip - Mum and Dad came down from Qld, in their campervan, for a visit, then Mum flew home (ready to go overseas with a friend) and Dad and I headed off in the campervan, on a trip from Canberra (where I live) to Adelaide (where I was born) for his sister's 80th ... we spent a week driving there the long way, and taking our time visiting some interesting places and checking out a few places we used to visit/live/etc ... and stopping for me to find the odd cache or 5 ... or more ... lol
We then spent a week around Norlunga, Moana, Sellicks Beach, Mt Compass, etc catching up/visiting/doing things with relatives, and driving around looking at places we used to live/do stuff/etc, and a few beaches and other interesting things ... and me finding caches here and there as we went Smile

We spent the morning driving around looking at houses where relatives used to live, and where I went to school for my first year (now a funeral place - lol), and the house I lived in for the first 7 years of my life (in Williams Avenue). Then we had lunch at Holly Reserve (most likely named after my Grandfather, Arnold Holly Smile

Not sure I have ever been to this beach before ... stopped somewhere for a walk out the jetty, and a last dose of sand between my toes, but the nearby cache was missing (presumed long gone from all the logs) so we plulled over here so I could grab one in this area, not too far from the family friend we were visiting Smile

TFTC - Now I have THAT song stuck in my head....

Found while on an afternoon run with Wal & Ol prior to an excellent Caberet Fringe Festival show. TFTC!
 
04-Jun-17
Found on a roundabout drive to a Cabaret Fringe Festival show with Pony1966. Not sure if it's in its intended position, but there's currently not much chance of grabbing it without walking on the vegetation? (luckily there's not much there!). TFTC

#11881. Day 17 of our SA holiday. Our first day based in Semaphore so time to explore on the bicyles and hope to pick up several of the nearby caches. A forelorn hope as it turned out, as we kept rocking up to caches that are actually missing in action and then there were our other DNF's also. I did manage to sign 23 caches on a 30km ride and gathered another 6 DNF's for my growing SA collection.

This one was on the ground under the boardwalk. The TB that was placed there in September 2016 went missing very quickly and needs to be marked as such. Replaced back in its rightful place.

Thanks George Jetson

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Needed cache for the day and was travelling by for work so decided to call by and make a find.
Looked everywhere as the hint suggested, but nothing. Hmmm. Got a bit creative in the search and wandered down the boardwalk and found the cache lying on the ground in the open. Retrieved it and retreated to a more private place to sign log and reassemble for replacement. Wandered back to GZ and the velcro on the cache suggested it was fastened somewhere but could not find the matching spot. So replaced it at the spot where the hint suggested but off the ground and out of sight. Hope this is OK. Was lucky Today as muggles were few and far between and the activity was uninterrupted.
Gratias Pro Cache George Jetson

Thanks George Jetson, nice part of our huge coast and nice cache.

The questions are, who is Percey and what must he beware of? We thought we faced a lengthy search within 100m of the coords but it was found well within 10m. The hint seemed out by one, probably not returned properly in the past, so we left it at the matching one. Thanks George Jetson, hope Astro is doing well.

Had good look could not find not sure if it's still there

Tftc. Had to get it from ground though. I'm clearly not clever enough to work out the other way.

Went to the Sailmaster, North Haven for lunch and grabbed this one on the way home. Couldn't believe the number of Pokeman players at Semaphore near the big clock and foreshore, especially as it is winter. Hey takes the pressure off of ensuring one is being cautious and not gaining attention!!!!! TFTC

We spent a lot of time looking for this cache (5 of us) with no luck at all. We walked and searched within 100m of every direction.
