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.

From http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70

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.

First for the day and it's always good to start with a find Big Grin.
Staying across the creek and woke before the sun had come up, our morning greeted by Kookaburras and warbling Magpies, then screeching Cockatoos Big GrinRazz.
Time to make our break and start ascending the mountain, but were already beaten by the bike riders who were earlier risers than us Red Face.
A quick stop here before starting the climb to the top Smile. TNLNSL.
This one could definitely use a new container - medium sized by todays standards Wink.
Thanks Spode.

A quick find before we headed off to walk to another cache. As mentioned in previous log cache is in a bad way. The only container we had was a fruit container which would not have fitted in the hidey hole. At this stage the contents are fine but rain will destroy the numerous logs in there. Thanks.

Found Saturday morning whilst exploring the Melrose area. I'm up here with the scouts but managing sometime to myself also. The scouts took the challenge walk to Mt Remarkable summit today. I didn't but did a shorter loop instead.

This cache has been smashed well beyond repair & needs replacing. I didn't even remove it from GZ as it would of gone everywhere. Unfortunately, I didn't bring my caching bag otherwise I could of done it for you. TFTC

Just catching up on a few last finds from our trip back from WA. We had not long set up camp for the night in the local caravan park and needed some wood for the campfire so we headed up here to grab just a couple of branches and some sticks for marshmallow cooking later on tonight. We also took the opportunity to grab cache while we were here. Thanks Spode for the hide and for bringing us here.

Touring Australia having left Perth in late February we are leisurely touring South Australia after having attended Oz Mega. Big Grin

Camped at Murray Town in luxury with power and water we had a relaxing start to our day. After an early lunch it was time to head out to find a smilie for today. Okay well we couldnt just stop at 1. Wink

What an absolutely amazing place. So glad you shared it with us. We are camped at Murray Town and may not have found this track to reach GZ without Geocaching. Awesome campsites below and a great piece of history to be shared near GZ.

Found on what was easily looking to be a failed FTF detour on the way up to Port Augusta to meet up with funkymunkyzone, vistra, and yorkshirekiwi83 for a day's caching trip to Whyalla. Luckily I managed to find a way to the new cache nearby after finding this one.

Thanks!
