This geocache appears to be MIA so to stop it clogging the search lists we'll archive it. This is done to keep the Geocaching Australia clean and up to date.
If the owner can confirm it is in place the listing can be resurrected by placing an "unarchived" log against it.

It seems this cache has disappeared but there's a possibility it's still in place.
If you're in the area how about having a look for it. If you picked it up a while ago and still have it kicking around in your caching bag on under the car seat, how about placing it back out for others to find.

No luck finding this one, although we picked up the remaining members of the menagerie today. Hope it's still there, maybe the previous finder could check? Thanks anyway The.Arborist

Day 4 of a 5 day caching run around south east Queensland with LuckyL10n.
After leaving Nanango we headed for Brisbane and stopped to grab to the GCA caches that were in the area. Look as we did for this one, we couldn't spot the little guy.
Thanks anyway...

Sorry about the delay in placing this moveable cache in a new location.

A review of this moveable shows the cache may have been collected from its currently listed co-ords, however it has not been relocated. The previous finder was contacted regarding the cache however it has not been re-located. As a result, we are archiving the cache to stop cachers looking for a cache that is obviously not at the listed co-ords. This is also done to keep the Geocaching Australia database clean and up to date,
If the cache owner can confirm that the cache has be relocated, they can post an unarchive log and the cache will be back in the game.

Reading previous logs, this moveable may have been found, removed and not relocated yet. We know moveables can sometimes be forgotten / missed / left in the bottom of a caching bag, so a check has been undertaken to determine its location.
An update will be posted within 28 days….

Time to catch up and log all the moves made for the large number of moveable caches that we have accumulated over the last months.
On the trip out into the Wandoo forrest area with the better half doing some maintenance of my caches after a fire and we dropped off a number of moveable caches along the way.

I was being looked after by Chwiliwr and the better half for the day at their place and whilst there saw a whole big group of moveable caches that were being organised for a move somewhere by my grandparents so played with them for a bit before they were packed up. (Those that were not too fragile to be played with.)
Thanks for the cache.

The better half and I took Gwiber for a drive to Bunbury and beyond to do some GCA moveable recovery and a couple of the new caches as well.
'Found' this cache in the hands of tbh after Gwiber 'dropped' it in Bridgetown.
Thanks for the cache.

Chwiliwr and the better half took me on a GCA caching trip to Bunbury and further south to pick up some moveables and do some other GCA caches along the way.
This moveable was one of the ones collected on the trip.

My gut instincts tell me this one might remain archived.

This moveable seems to have been found and removed in Nov 17, however to date it has not been relocated.
As this is now over 4 months ago, the chances of the cache being relocated are minimal. To keep the Geocaching Australia database clean and up to date we are archiving the cache.
If the cache owner can confirm that the cache has be relocated (by contacting the previous finder) they can post an unarchive log and the cache will be back in the game.

Brought over to Western Australia for new adventure.
In my safe hands, preparing for a new adventure
Out this way, from Perth WA, with aim to claim a find in new dragonZones.

Moved to Richmond Club on the way out further. Good luck on the next trip
Decided to come to Rookwood to visit and while I was here to pick up as many of the moveables that were there in the usual hides. I didn't bring my GPSr with me to make it more interesting. So out of the 6 hidden here I managed to locate 5 of them. I had a few that I almost missed as none of them were very large so some of them were harder to spot. Thanks for the moveable The Arborist.

Found a new hidey hole, should be found again soon!
Got you. I really could not leave you there after collecting the other 2 moveable from the area. Time to move you back to the big smoke in a couple days.

I recon you will enjoy this area – so many tracks to choose from – a short distance from a track.

I was plaining my annual caching day just a bit west & when I expanded the mapping & came up with the movable & a GCA cache close by. Will be going to an event that 2 off cache members will be able to log a find & then be placing out in the wild.
Came to GZ & did a little search & came up empty . Then read cache notes and says it’s a Nano . I had a sinking feeling , this is going to be a needle in a hay stack . A closer search came up with the goods .

Found this in the car park in Dalgety. Looks like it had a car 's tyre on top of it at one point, judging from the slightly squashed bison tube. Anyway, off we go to the Blue Mountains.

I believe the Snowy scheme was the start of Toyota in Australia, so what better place to leave a little pick-up than by the Snowy River.
Moved to a forested area in Shoalhaven Heads. Has the company of two other small moveables. Park at S34 50.237 E150 44.412 & it is only a short stroll.
Virtual move only. Waymarking in Tallong today so hopefully will find a suitable location in that area.
Found with a bunch of his mates on a wild & windy day - thanks to Throsbyonchurch for the special delivery.
I could say I found Bingo 53, but in reality, it's probably a comme ci comme ca. It was pretty funny chasing movable gnomes , angels , frogs etc down the freeway only to catch them and be plucking them from their hide'y hole and bursting at the seams carrying these wiggly giggly thingys back to a box in your mobile and clutching onto them almost for dear life. The whole look is hilarious. An enormous Thank You to Just a Cacher and Black Bunny for finding Bingo 53 and dropping him off. Thank you The.Arborist for sharing Bingo 53.

Went out to near Yass, and found a surprising number of movables, all in one spot.
Feeling really cranky, you travel all this this way to collect caches and people don't log that they have taken them, or they've had them in their possession for months. No consideration. Ruins the game!!! and it's unfair. ..... i'm just cranky because there are supposed to be 86 movables in the ACT to date and I can't access the majority of them and I'm fining this to be the case most of the time. Right or wrong from what I can see I can see why cachers don't bother too much about Geocaching Australia caches.

Dislodging Caches stuck around town. Placed on the highway Northbound, so someone can quickly grab and move on elsewhere!
A quick wander up and over and a quick find. Great views up here so I left him as is.

Grabbed while out and about today.

#GA721 - 22:00; In Melbourne with Sol de lune and Albida33 to attend the Melbourne Mega and associated events and activities, as well as a bit of caching of course. After a busy day out on the trail, I collected this one from A33 to continue its journey. TFTC Ali J

Adelaide September 2015 trip. I did not see many movables on this trip so it was nice to get two of them, one here. Even if I did have to go up and down the road a few times to get the right spot. Taken.

Was surprised to see that Bucketeer logged this as a found on the 2nd of August as we have had it with us since we picked it up on July 30. Today we left him to continue his travels.
At Mount Schank for an event and we climbed the hill with everyone else and thankfully this was there so we had a find.
grabbed to move on
Changed my log to a note due to a case of mistaken identity with another movable cache listed at the same coordinates

Today we went for a walk around the Mt Shank crater and found this cache on the way. It was safe and dry in a small crack in a rock hidden by the root of a bush.
Hopefully in a spot that a traveller will pick them up. There's quite a few moveables here.
Grabbed and will be off to Geelong for the weekend. Further than you would expect with no front wheels
Finally got to drop this long lost moveable off with a few friends. Should not be long before they are moved on.
It has been over 12 months since I dropped off this moveable with a number of friends, a few people have tried and failed to locate so while I know it is not really the done thing I have decided to visit again to rescue them. It was an easy find for me and I will drop off again soon.
went looking for this one and all its buddies with no luck. will have another look but i would have thought 5 caches would have stood out
Dropped of with number of friends, just tucked under.
Travel far Bingo 53.

Found this one at 20:00 with a whole bunch of other Bingo moveables while on the way down to Geelong this evening.
I left it in place for others to find at this location.

Found with GabGab before lunch today. We've moved this a little west and a little south, back the usual haunt (ha, I crack me up, because it's now in a cemetery, see, cemetery, haunt, ok I'll stop now).
