This cache is classified as a Traditional. The coordinates listed on a Traditional cache page should be the **exact location of the cache.** From a number of logs it would seem the Listed Co-ordinates provided for this cache are not where the cache is actually located. From the guidelines [Listings must contain accurate GPS coordinates.](https://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx?expand=1#coordinates)

CO has not responded to request to up-date the co-ordinates - cache archived due to lack of response from CO.

If you wish to contact me please send your email via my profile - [Bunjil,](https://coord.info/PR9GZ0K) and quote both the cache name and GC number please..

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED**###
This cache is carrying one or more logs which suggest some attention by the cache owner is needed.

The guidelines advise that the CO should make occasional visits to check on the cache as well as promptly address any logs that indicate that the cache requires some attention. If you can not attend to the issue promptly, then you need to Disable the cache - I have disabled it this time.

Please respond to this situation (or indicated your intentions including a date) by **30th August**, otherwise it will be necessary to withdraw the cache from the Active listing. The [Geocache Maintenance guideline](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance) explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported.

**And don't forget,** once you have addressed the issue, post both an "Owner Maintenance" log, see here; [Removing the Needs Maintenance Icon](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and an "Enable Listing" log, see here; [Temporarily Disable and Enable ](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) to get your cache up and running again.

I bumped into a couple of local cachers down the road who invited me to join them in the hunt for the these caches in the wetlands. It was nice to chat to them and have some help with the hides. Thanks.

This cache is classified as a Traditional (cache at listed co-ords) but the GZ today was some12m away from where the cache is located. We note other logs also remarking about the accuracy of the co-ordinates.
The log is totally full and damp - perhaps it's time for the CO to do a maintenaince visit and check the co-ords & the log please?

Suscoe headed out this afternoon with the Phetlern team for a delightful afternoon of caching around Wagga Wagga.
We had a terrific time finding some interesting caches in some interesting locations.
So many town caches around this city.
Thanks to Shadari for this hide, we used the co-ordinates listed in the logs to locate this one.

A leisurely afternoon in and around the city, with Suscoe, in an effort to convert some of the many green boxes to smiley tokens on our geo-map. Thanks to the co'ords sugggested by Happy Feet 1 we made a quick find.

We come to Wagga to catch up with The Drovers and as they were busy today we thought that it was a good opportunity to do a few local caches.
The urban sprawl has definitely taken over all the major towns in Australia and obviously Wagga is not an exception. The cache itself was a nice easy find right where the GPSr was pointing and the log book now contains our name.
Thanks Shadari for the cache.

Found using Mona Vale Dave's coords, for a quick find late at night. Bull ants did not appreciate being disturbed while trying to extract cache, but using a natural tool Aquilus1 was able to retrieve cache. Log very dusty/mouldy, signed in a very small space. Tftc!!!
 
17-Mar-17
Searched around but was not coming up with anything so started on the logs. Using the coordinates Mona Vale Dave left in their log soon had the location and the hiding hole was discovered. The ants were cooperative when removing the cam and soon had the very full log in hand. Very full and had to squeeze in on another names line in the gaps. TFTC!

Found in the company of a thousand highly motivated guard ants, my goodness they were big fellas. I was a bit surprised at the cache location and only really paid attention as it did not appear quite right but then the area of my first search also didn't look quite right. Thanks for bringing me to this parkland on the edge of suburbia. Tha cache is full and of historical interest. Now off to the cache past the Toll's truck yard.
 
Found on the 4th June, 2015 with farmer--brown. Apparently I forgot to log this cache at the time!

Thanks guys for the cache. There were a few too many 6 legged friends waiting on the cache...but that's maybe because they live nearby.

Visiting some friends in the area and headed out to do the RGGT power trail with a driver to make things easier and pick up a few caches around the area too and this was one of them.

Once the log was signed all was returned as found.

Found with the geo-son during a Monday morning bike-mounted assault on a few Wagga caches. As others have said, the co-ords are a bit out (by 10m?) and future cache hunters might like to try

I was cruising around Wagga today, looking for any caches that might come my way Smile
This cache looked like a good spot to head bush for a muggle free find Big Grin
I guess if they built suburbia any further north of here, everything would need to be on stilts Razz

On the edge of the floodplain, I soon had the cache in paw [^]

We noticed the "needs maintenance" on this one so filled out a new log with our handle on it before leaving the car. At GZ we had no luck finding the container but our caching sense led us in the right direction and we soon had it located.

Have been planning another trip down to Wagga Wagga. But had to postpone it while the Geo Dawg was recuperating from her knee operation and now she has recovered it is time to put the plan into action. Rather than travelling down the boring concrete strip called Hume. I decided to head out West through Bathurst, Blaney and then South to Cowra, Young hence Wagga Wagga with a view to complete the RGGT Series and find others caches of opportunity along the way. Great cache. TFTC

Managed to find this OK in the end. I have this cache about 12m out!

Found on our mini Wagga invasion from Canberra with Mtrax, Albida33 and Noikmeister! The weather forecast was doubtful, with showers predicted on Sunday, but we had 2 wonderful days, with barely a cloud in the sky, let alone any rain!

Found around 130 caches - can’t complain about that! Thanks again Shadari!
 
14-Sep-13
Found at 12:33:00 PM.

Headed out to Wagga with mtrax, Tankengine and albida for a power trail and other caching.

Coordinates were a bit out, but the cache was where my gut instinct told me.

Thanks Shadari

I had to change the batteries in my GPS at this one, and bikerbuddy had it found before I finished that.

So an easy one for me, thanks Smile

We were returning from the nearby power trail when this one seemed close, so we stopped to find it. Thanks
 
27-Jul-13
Having been a bit unlucky with a few micros in middle of town I needed a bit of a pick me up so it was to this one, a bit away from the high muggle zones.
Was found between passing cars.

TFTC, Cheers.

I was greeted this morning with a calendar free of any entries, including work, so I arranged with Veddadog to go for a tour of the Riverina, picking up 54 finds, 6 DNF's and 450km in a solid 12 hours.

I can see the point of the name of this cache - surburbia does come to an abrupt end just here.

We spent a few moments where the GPSr insisted we should be before I spotted something a little way away that hinted where we should be.

Driving along to this cache you do get a sense of the edge of suburbia with what looks like the levy bank to protect you from the river. We have seen news of floods from the Murrumbidgee river and wondered if this area was in its path. Fortunately there was no one around for the hunt. The gps wanted us to be in one spot at first but wasn't long before it settled down and the cache was located. TFTC

As it was school holidays we made an overnight trip to Wagga with the Geokids and jusojara to get some numbers up for the Scouts Geocaching Comp.

Second for the day and after nearly giving up on this one, we found it on our way back to the Geomobile. TFTC

As it was school holidays we made an overnight trip to Wagga with the Geokids and the Diamantina Stars to get some numbers up.

Not sure if it was the overcast conditions but we had GZ about 10m out and there looked like the garden had been re-done and chomped container bottom was in there! It was only on our way back to the Geomobile that we spotted the hide and the cache. TFTC
