Melaleuca Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Tchingal: An action had been taken on this cache because of one of the following -

No response from the cache owner to the previous reviewer note ask for this cache to receive maintenance.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As there has been no response I'm archiving this cache to stop it from showing up in my reviewer searches and new placement checks.

Please remember to return to the GZ and collect the cache or Check it has been removed if you have not already done so.

We don't want to litter our environment with Geotrash and if you have any TB's or coins in your cache I'm sure the owners would want them moved on.

If you decide to proceed with this cache in the next 28 days please contact me via email and I'll unarchive it for you.

[b]This cache has now been taken off my watchlist and I will not see any notes you leave on the cache page from today[/b]

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.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:


This cache lies within the South West conservation area. It can be accessed either via light aircraft, boat, kayak, walking or a combination there of. The terrain has been chosen with the idea that you do not fly in and out but if you take that option it's fine.
This cache might be your destination or your starting point for a sight seeing air trip, a bushwalk or a sea voyage of some kind. What ever you choose you will be in the heart of the Tasmanian Wilderness.


There is no need to go more than one metre off a formed road to find this cache. Continue from the airstrip along the road towards the south coast walking track. Where the track leaves the road continue a further 40m or so along the road towards gz. Gz is on the opposite side of the road to the shed. (Make sure you take the hint just incase you have trouble finding it, but you really shouldn't)

The cache is a pvc pipe capped at both ends approx 50cm in length which is completely water and animal proof. It contains various things that may be useful in the wilderness. A can of chunky soup is available for someone who feels they deserve it (ie isn't flying in or out the day they find the cache, this may be because you're stuck waiting for a plane or because you're just walking through).

The cache contains a large log book and pencils so you might like to give details of your adventure or even include drawings.

Be warned, this is in a remote and potentially dangerous area to inexperienced people so make sure you are properly prepared for all wilderness contingencies.

This cache will be maintained by JamesWat, Graham51 and Macca81 who regularly walk in the area, but please be patient as it can be an expensive and time consuming trip.
