The situation here has been reviewed again.

Sufficient time has elapsed since the issues were highlighted, and nothing has been done to restore it.
Circumstances that prevent timely maintenance can arise, and ample opportunity for the Cache Owner to get in touch to request a time extension has been provided.
No request has been received from the Cache Owner, Cirrus_WA, for further time to restore the cache.
** It appears to have been abandoned by the Owner and, therefore, will be Archived.**

Geocache Description:

20/11/2017 Update: I will be maintaining The Periodic Table series until the end of 2017. After that either they'll slowly fade away, one by one. Or, if someone else wants to take over all or part of the series I'll happily pass over to them. I can even supply the tubes that are currently being used. BlaKids.

Welcome to the periodic table of the elements powered trail. There will be 114 caches to each represent each element on the periodic table (until new elements are added). For simplicity sake only elements approved by the “International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry” will be included in this series.



The cache containers are small tubes as shown in the picture below


These containers have only a logbook inside them and no pen/pencil. Please make sure to bring a pen.

Roentgenium, was discovered on 8th December 1994 at the GSI in Darmstadt, Germany. Further information on element 111 is here (outside WebElements). The information following is an abstract of this source. The interested reader should consult the on-line version of The Wonderful World of Atoms and Nuclei for a fascinating insight into research on "super-heavy" atoms.

Chemically, roentgenium should be in the same group as the elements copper, silver, and gold (Group 11). Source: Webelements.

This power trail starts at Mount Henry Bridge and continues south down the freeway cyclepath. This power trail is designed for bicycles or walkers and will be extremely hard, if not impossible for drivers. There is however a car park and a playground near the start.

Please stay safe and enjoy the power trail.
