Cache probably needs disabling until owner can check it it. Quite a run of recent DNFs. Oh, it appears the owner hasn't been online since 2009! Probably will need straight archiving then. Cheers Gav
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm 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 30 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.
spent a lot of time in the area as it was quiet but no look, might not be there as it seems a while since it was last found
Had a good hunt for this one but we couldn't find it. Well done mural though! Cheers Gav
Had two visits with hubby second time. Found the hint but no success. Is it still there?
Marco is in Darwin for work, so I flew up for the long weekend so we could find some Darwin caches. We parked nearby and thought we'd make a quick find, but it was not to be. We headed north, south, east and west but had no luck - is it still there?
No trouble finding this one - my first in the NT! It could use a new log soon, I think. TFTC!
A nice quick find as I wandered around the area this morning. Found the small piece of paper left by the last finder but, decided to put my sitcked in the container rather than use space.
Cheers Kerr NT

Removed log, as it was in too poor a state. Added the only small piece of paper I had, but the next person will need to bring a better log with them. Clever hide, but I fear that the container will continue to suffer from the rain. TFTC
Nice quick find for the last of the night. TFTC.
Log is soaked and needs replacing

Nice hide. Good shady spot. Unable to use log as it was saturated and cache full of water. TFTC.
found easy enough, couldnt sign log as its like mush, and fogot to bring spare log with me. TFTC.
TFTC, gps had us in the wrong spot but our instincts were correct, to wet to log
Barely missed the last cacher. I think I saw them walk away. Interesting area. could not sign log, but want to log in the trackables I'm carrying. I think rcent storms have disturbed some nearby caches as this was the only one in the area I could find.
Found on stopover off a slow boat to China. Very wet could not fill in log. Good spot
Found by my 6 year old with no clues! Thanks. Log is wet and needs a fix. Will try to fix later.
Found this one a few months ago but could not write on the wet log then. It has not got any better in the meantime. Wet log needs replacing. Nice hide and TFTC.
we were getting weary when we saw a cache 28m away. so it had to be done else that would be way not awesome. cache not in great shape though - log book is obliterated from the wet. interesting spot though. cheers!
A very good place to hide the cache. unfortunately the log was too soaked and ruined. Clever container too!
Easy find in a beautiful place, had a good look at the mosaic.
Could not write in the log as it was wet, needs replacing.

Found it very quickly. But couldn't sign it, however, as the log was damaged beyond repair because it was so soaked. Great location, fantastic for the new cacher I brought along. She had a blast TFTC.
Was reading the clue as I walked by and found it almost instantly. The log is very soggy and needs replacing. Enjoyed the walk. TFTC.
Found it but got attacked by Mosquitos the whole time. Log needs to be replaced soon it's quite soggy. Tftc
Quick find, the log was quite damp. I dried it out while looking at the mosaic.

What an amazing mural... never knew it was there... Took a while to find this one but manly because I was too busy checking out the incredible feature! Thanks again to Liz & Bruce ...
Out caching Darwin with Liz & Bruce on a warm and humid day (for South Australians anyway).
Found the spot and replaced the container with an ingenious one. TFTC.

We got creative and replaced this as the clue indicated. Interesting area certainly worth a look. Thanks Kerr NT
So many DNFs and a cache owner that has not logged in for over a year....... Time for action, at the very least disabling so that visiting cachers don't waste time!
We went searching for this one earlier today with no joy - it would appear that half of the mosaic is missing and had been broken away - A very nice place none the less - glad we walked from the top down though the kids where worried that it would be right at the top if we started from the bottom of the hill - A dirty little trick with the GPS co-ords with a new cache located at the top of the stairs had them sweating before we even started - I would suggest that this cache needs replacing or at least confirmation that it's still in the intended location .
Even with a very strong hint about this cache's location, it was not to be found. Maybe it needs checking?
2nd DNF on my first caching day back in darwin Checked high and low, backwards and forwards, upstairs and downstairs, to no avail!
out hunting with MGROCKS and JWstorming
sorry we couldnt find it even with 6 sets of eyes.
Found what could have been an anchor point of electrical tap around one of the bolts supporting the mural, also part of the mural looks like it has been broken off.

That was an easy find today while visiting Darwin.
Very interesting sign, good work.
Thank you very much for the cache and showing the area.

Charming early morning walk to find one of those areas one does not normally see.
Found easy enough

Found on one of our shopping trips to darwin.
Log was soaking and a paper mush, replaced with a notepad page, needs a little maintenence to ensure it doesn't get wet again.

Great spot and one of those that you just would not find without a cache. Enormous amount of detail on the feature. TFTC
Great hide, nice location. Found it without a hitch in the dark. TFTC Kerr NT. [192].
An easy find and a great piece of history. took longer reattaching the cache than it did too find the blighter.
An easier find (with the clue) after the end of a conference in Darwin. Probably the most difficult part was trying not to sweat on the log.
Nice mural.
The wire could probably use replacing as it was rusty and the ends broke off in our hands.

Found at 0716, while attending a conference up here in Darwin. A quick find using the clue. Nice little POI tucked away from the crowds. Cache OK and dry. TFTC.
Visiting from Vancouver, Canada. Enjoying the sights of Darwin while caching. TFTC
Had a friend along to see what caching is all about. A bit of history on the side a bonus. Thanks for bringing us here. TNLN

Nice quick find without a soul in sight. Mrs Rat found it without really trying. Says her geosense has survived the jetlag. TFTC
Found it with iTreasureHunt2. We did in the shade of the trees in the mid-afternoon heat. Easy find, TFTH
Found it yesterday afternoon with iTreasureHunt2 as part of a series of four caches we did in the shade of the trees in the mid-afternoon heat. Easy find, TFTH
Found by Mr NTBBBB. Had a couple of hours to kill in town whilst waiting for the car to get serviced. Nice easy find with the use of the hint. Dropped off my BBBB TB and NT GC before grabbing them back again.

Yet another fantastic place we wouldn't have found other than caching. Loved the wall!TFTC
Haha nice hint. The log book is full....ah no its not... the one down the road is. Great history round these parts
I wasn't sure where the gps was sending me but it all became obvious, and the cache was a fairly quick find in its neat hide, giving me some time to actually look at the mural! thanks Kerr NT
Finally got around to doing this one, made up a new log sheet and installed, should get a few more years out of this one.

Luckily, I did the Traveller’s Walk with gravity assist. (Later found the lift to the Smith Street Bridge for the ascent.) What a lovely little spot, and one that you wouldn’t normally find if you were rushing from tourist attraction to tourist attraction. Nor would you stop and examine the work of art there in minute detail. And a rather thorough examination I did too, before finding the wee cache. It’s in need of a bit of care. The container is still usable, but the log book has seen a season or two, it’s almost in pieces now, and I used the second last space to sign in. Thanks for bringing me here.

Logbook has to be replaced. Interesting place.
Found on my way from Broome via Gibb River Road to Bungle Bungles,Kununarra, Katherine, Darwin, Kakadu and back to Darwin in 3,5 weeks.

I almost took this clue a little too literally and started to wander away from the cache. Sneaky hide . Thanks. (P.S. The log paper is becoming tattered and could use replacing.)
still needs maintenance, needs new logpaper, didn´t had have some with us , saw that 18/06/2006 see our log
found it & logged it, 18/06/09 11:45
nice place, nice walk. TFTC Stoffel 28 from germany

Easy find on the way to work, unable to sign the log as it is still quite wet and it started to fall apart as I attempted to unroll it. The Mosaic has seen better days with the bottom section of it breaking away. TFTH
Easily found during a break in the conference nearby, but the log sheet is very soggy and the cache probably needs maintenance as it appears a but fragile. Thanks, Kerr NT!
We found it but it needs a bit of matinence. Seemed a bit waterlogged. Good hide otherwise.

Ms Bushies2 found it but was unable to sign the logbook because it is still wet and unusable. Disappointed about it but lovely clever cache. Thanks Kerr NT for organising the hide and hunt.
Please replace the logbook to avoid disappointment from the future cachers. The problem about wet logbook has been mentioned from a few cachers before us. Thanks.
nice cache, but the log book is wet, i couldn't log !! nice place, l learned something about Darwins history TFTC
Log paper is very wet and unusable.
(Sorry, just a short stopover and I didn't have any paper with me to replace the log).

Found during a walk out to the Wharf to grab a bite of dinner.
I barely managed to scratch my name on the saturated log paper.
A nice walk, but the cache needs some attention.
Thanks Kerr NT.

Great spot for a cache. Talk about micro.
Unfortunately the paper is quite wet so unable to write on it without further damaging what already is a fairly tattered log.
Cheers

Found it in our Holiday! Nice place here. The paper was to wet, to log it on it. But you get a photolog. Hope this is OK
Please change the logbock.
Thanks for the Cache

Very nice walkway, cache log was very wet, but still managed to write log, thanks.
on the way to this one we walked past the oil storage tunnels so we did the tour. once at the travellers walk i grabbed it quickly. thanks for leading us past the amazing tunnels.
Found with GGG on a 24 hour geocaching marathon that started at Darwin International Airport, criss-crossed the city before heading south. We were in the CBD between 1am and 4am, went to Marrara and Fannie Bay, around Charles Darwin University around Sunrise before going out to the Eastern Cliffs and conducting a mopping up operation in torrential rain in the afternoon. As time was limited we tended to avoid most multicaches. TVMFTC.
I actually took a photo of this area yesterday with a travelling bug on a mission around Australia, i cannot believe that I had this in my photo without knowing it!!
Cheeky, I reckon many others have done exactly the same.
Loved it, Cheers.

Accompanied with Darwin Lizard for the afternoon. We enjoyed walk and search the cache. She found it before me also her first time to found it. Well done. SL. Thanks Kerr NT for organising the cache and hunt.
