No response from owner. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

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. If you require more time please be sure to post a note explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

Please Archive this cache

Unable to find

It seems that this one has not been found for a while can the owner tell us if it's still here

Black object noted and though we did try to retrieve, it wouldn't budge - so praps it was something else entirely?! Glad we are not alone is missing out on this one.

looked today no luck lots of DNFs on this one
Check or Archive it

Searched for about an hour and had no luck what so ever, after reading other posts it seems that this could be missing

Hmm I seem to be many in a long list who DNF.. I did note the black gadget that Capellaman sighted, but didn't think it was the cache. Will be back a gain for another hunt!

Capellaman- After checking with the owner, what i found was not the cache. The object i found was stuck hard to the metal surface couldnt get it down, as it was held on with a very powerful magnet i thought this was the cache. Will return in the future, look out for the black object stuck hard, id be very interested to know what it is ,if any one else finds it.

Lucky no muggets there, Very disppointment for us DNF today, searched everywhere no cache there, checked preivous logs DNFs,

Disappointed to not find this cache. Why are the "easy" ones so hard to find?! Looked for over 30 mins. Not a muggle in sight either. I hope it's still there - but I'm not so sure. [?]

Busted.
No sign after half hour search

Sent from my mobile device.

No muggles this sunday afternoon and we could park directly opposite the cache SL TNLN TFTH

A quick and easy find. Found during Rudi63 and the Walenators assualt on a "Everything North of Sydney" caching weekend TFTH....SL...TNLN

Found this whilst out caching with TheWobblys who were playing with the new toy, a Magellan Explorist GC.

There was a muggle practicing golf on the fields but luckily he couldn't see us.

A quick find and I agree with spikeymikey. No spiders home today fortunately but plenty of webs wrapped around the cache.

Thanks basscadetz

Rated: for Overall Experience

Found while caching for the day with The Cashman.

Easy find today no muggles about.

Wnt back a second time just before dark to avoid mugglers, this time prepared for searching in spider infested places. Found a few possible places where it could be, but no luck.

Been going to tackle this toughy for a long time. Finally had some time and bingo - not too tough.
TFTC

Gps went a little funny so we checked a few spots. Ended up where we originally thought. TeamBountyHunters 50th Cache THANKS!.

Out on a caching expedition with TheHeadChef and his MiniChef.
I hate sticking my fingers into dark, unseen, spider-infested holes!
But sometimes it pays off.
TNLNSL TFTC

2nd visit. I knew it would be where it was but the first time i was there i was unprepared. I dont do dark places and cobwebs. TFTC

Our second time here but failed again!!!

Quick hunt due to the muggle traffic didn't get the find. Will try again during the week. Thanks anyway basscadetz.

This was a bit creepy being so close to the public toilets and all the muggles doing sport that we thought we would leave it.

Another DNF for the day... doh

Not only could we not find the cache I couldn't even use the toilet ..it was locked. AH well off to the next one

Had the place to myself, but wasn't able to come up with the goods.

Given the 1:1 Find:DNF ratio - is this really a 2 difficulty rating cache?

Of cause it wasn't in the first place we looked but got there in the end
TFTC SL

Nice find hidden from muggles. Took a little while to find, with all the nooks and crannies around. TFTC SL

No muggles around, probably due to the very hot weather.
Not too many places where you could put a micro here, so it was found quite quickly.

This one caused much head scratching in the past, but today was a victory! Don't know how we missed it before. Took nothing, left a basketball

Looked lots of dirty places, searched through mud, put my hand up drains still couldn't find, we were running out of time so had to leave empty handed.

The first place I looked was quite a way from GZ and had nearly given up around GZ when I fetched a lamp to assist, and soon saw the cache where I had first looked. A perfect time to look even with school holidays. Thanks to basscadetz for a good hide.

This cache has truly done my head in, this is my third time back, and bugger me dead if it isn't in the very first spot I looked on day one and day two I visited there.....how I missed has me stuffed, that was why I posted it must have been inside the building because I just could not find it......oh well it's found now and thank the lord I don't have to go back to that park again or people might start calling me George Michael.

2nd time lucky!! We sort of had an idea where this was the 1st time but didnt want to put bare hands in to try. Lots of spider webs(I was being a girly girl) took rubber gloves this time and found it straight away.
We also though it was in the building when we 1st got there the 1st time but no its not.
accidently pushed it up further trying to get it out but got to it eventulally.
Clever hide.
Thanks for some fun!!

I searched this spot, every brick for an hour and no find.....the only thing I can work out is it must be INSIDE the bloody building, and being locked does not help trying to find it......Is forceable breaking and entering part of geocaching? And besides I would have thought a cache being fixed to a building required permission to do so? Maybe some clarification from the Hider?

hmmm ... my thoughts on this one is Big Matt just got Lucky
but I'm wrapped he did cause its always great to find one thats had a few DNF's
Thanks for the cache basscadetz and jolly good on you for finding it Big Matt

2759.

Found this one before the girls were even out of the car, I think Shell must have had her eyes closed last time.

Thanks basscadetz for the cache.

Looked for about 30mins and couldnt find it. thought we knew the obvious hiding spot and after looking at photo will try again another time.
Thanks

Without reading up on this cache too well, I pulled up at GZ and started looking around. After a few minutes some council workers turned up to do some maintenance on the oval. I kept looking around for a few more minutes but with no luck.

I returned to the car to read some logs hoping for some insight but didn't come accross anything of use.

I will be back.

No luck for us today. Had a pretty good fix from GPSr and thought I was in the right place but just couldn't get it. Will try again.

Not so much a did not find as a did not search. We drove to the cache location knowing that gizmo had dead batteries. Once in the area (guided by the in-car gizmo) we discovered that our spare gizmop batteries were dead too. Thus ended our afternoon of caching, and our chances of turning this one up

drive by to the location

but not quite such an easy find


none the less did acquire it


fattyacid and family

Sigh! Got to gz for this one, and there was a game on had a search where I thought it was but nope no luck Thanks for the search tho

cache is still in place, checked from 13,000 kms away. still there! hunt better!

will be checked and replaced in the next week. would have done sooner, but im 13,000 kms away.


sorry guys!!! (and gals)

Add us to the list of cachers that couldn't find it. Cheers Gav

Team GPS.org.nz Cache Raid: Ditto with rediguana. Cheers, M@

DNF

So add me to the DNF list for this one, had a 10/1 strike rate today, and this was the only DNF, I wonder if it is still there?

Looked in the most obvious spot but didn't come up with the find.

Couldn't find it, even in the obvious location, although that isn't saying much as SixStars has a bad track record with these types. Will return another day.

found with the ruffasguts4x4 team
thanks for the hunt guys
TNLNSL

We literally drove right up to this one and quickly located what we came for though retrieval proved to be just a little more tricky, Nice Grounds! TFTC

Nice easy find in the most obvious spot. TNLN.

Looked around for quite a while and couldn't see it.

Previous finders have reported easy finds so is it possible the muggles got it?

11:45am
Instant find, nobody around.

Cheers

Number two finder of this micro
Thanks bring on more!!!

Drove straight up to the cache, there were a few people on the oval, but not near GZ, so the cache was quickly located.
Thanks for another FTF.
