I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, shadowranger, requesting additional time.

An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.

Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

25-Jun-22
First cache in a long time, my first NT find, and a very good one at that. Very effectively hidden, and a really fun search.

Found it on a long walk at dusk, with a fair few bugs around and a nagging feeling of using not enough Aerogard.

As it was getting dark, on a bit of a race against the clock, we found it.

Now visiting Darwin after the Red Centre Experience. Razz

After a few days recuperating, it was time to hit the trail all be it with a late start to the day.

Lunch at the Humpty Doo Tavern and a few more caches before returning to camp.

Mr Felix almost got fooled by the bottle hanging from the bridge but Mrs Felix wasn't having it. Cache was eventually found and log signed. Cool

Holy Snappin Crocidiles !!!!
(Of which none are here)
I would never find that in wet season, maybe I'm a bit soft though.
As a Victorian this walk this morning of 2.5km to get here is tough. You NT people are tough as old nails or mad living up here .....
Great scenery though in side of road and gave me a chance to hear the birds and marvel in the scrub land.
AMAZING AREA UP HERE !!!!
Thanks so much for the cache Smile:):)
 
29-Jun-15
First one yay
 
24-Jun-15
Definitely worth searching in the dry season! We have driven past this cache almost daily and finally stopped to find. DeFCon_6 was quick to locate it. Log signed and placed back. TFTC
 
24-Jun-15
Found it!!! After looking during wet season with no avail, Kym's Adventure and I waited for dry season to arrive and the water to dry up so we could have a really good look all over the bridge. Driving past this bridge regularly I found myself looking at the bridge and thinking..."we will find you soon". Well today was the day and we arrived on GZ for a quick find. Log signed and cache returned! TFTC shadowranger
