Hi Oz Traveller,

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** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 30 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

Could not find it

Building is currently an extensive maintenance/renovation site and access is not possible ie: fenced off land site and separately again the building itself.

This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.

There is extensive work being undertaken around this building right up to the walls. There is no access or permission allowed into this location with tall locked fencing. CO could temporarily remove access to this cache or archive it to start again sometime into the future.

Actually visited this one twice with a couple of hours in between but there was too much activity in fluros around, the second time three in a truck sat watching me to see if I was going to steal any of the old junk around the place - ha ha. Was afraid to stay too long in case I got locked into the complex and felt very uncomfortable being the centre of attention. Will watch,

We were defeated by a locked gate....

Couldn't find because the gate was locked

Thank goodness we had our experienced Finnish friends here to find this one. TFTC

Fun day caching and introducing this hobby to our new friends! Nice little cache here and good camo. Gate was closed but sneaked in by the train trail, tftc!

A fun day caching with our new friends. Cool camo, thanks for the cache!

Interesting cache might try this one at home tnln tftc no pen but got image to co

Thanks for the cache, our new fav

Quick find but a clever hide. TFTC Oz Traveller

Such a cool spot

Great Hide!!! Loved it

Location behind a locked gate!

Found it. Gate was open today. Thank you.

Nice hiding place
Thanks for the cache

TFTC Thank you for hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity. Very nice cami.

Visiting her from NZ and stopped for a coffee and eyed this cache! It is fenced off but easy and safe access by the train tracks. Geo senses were strong today and the cache was quickly located. TFTC

Been fenced off

Quick stop on the way south. TFTC Oz Traveller

Out picking up a few solved puzzles and multi’s with Lpud today. Always seems to be windy when we come out this way. This was my favourite of the day! Cool cache, cool spot. TFTC

Out in Bungendore this afternoon to make a few smileys. This one took a while to find, but eventually made the find. Thanks Oz Traveller.

Now closed off with fencing

Well done love the thought put into container and very clever Thankyou for the cache the Ewoks

Found -- 5:21 pm -- Thanks for bringing us to this location and Thanks for the hunt *Oz Traveller*.

**Cache Condition:** Good.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.
**Trackables:** None seen in this cache today.

**The Cache**
Signed the log with our initials *TOC, LK, DJJ* and if not our names and returned cache to its hide'y hole. Redeemed the DNF or should I say DNA. Yippee.

**The Day**
OCW *Little Kitten*, *DustyJapserJet* and *Mr ToC*. I am keen to complete this series that I started on 20 Oct 2018 - wow almost a year ago, when I got half way and headed back home. With the *Mystery in the Museum* currently in progress and only a few days left to complete it and I need 40 caches coming down here seemed the logical choice.

69 = 69 0 0 [8)] not attempted.

27/01/2018 -- Not Attempted - Gates Closed -- As Arnie says "I'll be back."
Thanks for bringing us here to this location Oz Traveller.

**The Day**
I don't really have a *The Day* log on this occasion as this was more of a family camping trip to get in a little camping before school goes back, and as it's been occasionally cold and mostly super hot in our neck of the woods we have not done much over the holidays . Combining camping and swimming seemed like a good idea, so we ventured to Braidwood for four nights. It's been a disasterous trip for us, a caravan blow out and the wheel falling off due to the other half forgetting the nuts need tightening, and then a flat tyre on the car heading home, followed by a torrential downpour between Tarago and Goulburn and I couldn't see the road very well and nowhere to pull over with a caravan on the rear. The farmland around Goulburn was flooded, rivers had risen, and the streets were severely flooded !! Never seen anything like it there.

Loved this one! Thanks for this!! Great cache

Angekommen in der Hauptstadt. Neues Auto, neues Glück. Diesmal eine Stufe moderner und ein super Versicherungstipp des Vermieters. Die Autofahrt führte erneut über zahlreiche Caches. Sogar zwei Mysterys hab ich auf dem kurzen Flug gelöst. Was stimmt nur mit der Airline nicht? Kurzstrecke und keine Verspätung, kostenlose Getränke, schmackhaftes Essen, Gepäck war unter den ersten fünf Teilen. Tatsächlich alles perfekt. Nur mit Erkältung landen ist etwas schmerzhaft.
Zu den Caches: die waren recht gut zu finden. Offenbar sind bisons die Petlinge hierzulande. Gesucht, gut gefunden, sehr gut gestempelt, dankeschön.

I like this one. Favourite!

Angekommen in Canberra und weiter geht die Fahrt zur nächsten Unterkunft, die sich als sehr schön und deutlich besser als die letzte heraus gestellt hat. Das Auto ist auch eine Nummer besser als das letzte. Mal sehen was uns erwartet. Diesen Cache konnten wir auch gut finden.

Thanks for the cache Oz Traveller

Quick find when out exploring the area.

Found during my adventures at the Clear Waters mega. Thank you for all the caches!

Nice walking along the railroad track to get here. TFTC.

Attending the Clear Water 2019 mega this Easter in Queanbeyan. Apologies for the generic log but we have found too many to compose individual logs. Many thanks to all the cache owners for their caches, which have been exceptional in their maintenance I have had only 1 dnf and that was only because I was not going to make a tree climb without seeing where the cache was. The vast majority of caches have had very good coordinates. Along with useful hints. TFTC

found with Banj Ward. TFTC

Out caching with our group Team Brolgas and wanted to check this cache out for its number of FPs. I am adding another - great hide! Thanks Oz Traveller.

visiting Queanbeyan for the Mega Event . Thoroughly enjoyed looking for this cache which we found. TFTC

Out geocaching while attending the MEGA, and what a great time we had with all the events and opportunities for meeting other geocachers and getting out there to find some.
This was one we came to find and thank you Oz Traveller for placing it for us and others to find. A bit tricky but we spotted it fairly quickly. Signed as Team Brolgas.
Cheers and happy caching!

Another great day out with woolwood9 hunting containers.

Thank you for the hide Oz Traveller

Found while attending in the area attending the Clear Waters Mega Event as part of a Winery and Brewery tour organised by Joeylovestreasur for the event. A great day out with fellow cachers (Ms Maddy, Rock-hopper, Empress of Rigel, Kaos1379, Bulldozer72 and GWD.Aussie) enjoying a day out caching and wine tasting. Bulldozer72 quickly spotted the hide.

Log signed as CWWT for the group.

Thanks Oz Traveller

Found on a fantastic tour at the Easter Mega. Signed as CWWT. TFTC

Found while out and about with the clear waters wine tour. A great twist on the standard cache hide and fun to find. TFTC

We joined the Clear Waters geo-wineries tour today (with local Empress of Rigal) and had a wonderful outing in the sunshine with our tour guide joeylovestreasure visited a few different cache types and locations and settled for a bit at Majura Winery for lunch and tasting. Caught up with a mate for BBQ dinner at the mega (where he hit it off with Mr If so lots of chat and also joined by HippyDonna and Orange Crew). Then introduced Canberra mate Muggle Mike to night caching then a drink in town before heading back to my digs in Canberra for the night... This is the best event of any kind I have attended and so well organised heaps of Queenslanders here also. Full on days and a couple of heavy nights but having an absolute blast!!!

TFTC

Thanks for the well constructed cache love the idea

This was the final cache we needed to complete the Cacheopoly game at the Clear Waters Mega event.
There were a few other cachers just leaving when we arrived and they said they would wait and see how long it took us to locate. We found it in about 5 seconds.

Thanks for the hide Oz Traveller.

A big weekend of caching in the area thanks to the Clear Waters event in Queanbeyan. A lovely area with plenty of caches to keep us busy and engaged.

No one working in the Shed today so we approached from the road crossing and walked along the train line. Interesting to see the full size points that have been electrified. A quick find in a clever spot.

Thanks Oz Traveller for placing and maintaining this cache.

What a sneaky hide. Went on a bit of an adventure with a few fellow cachers from the Mega event and the youngest of us all made the find - keen young eyes
TFTC

A clever little hide, we had fun finding it. Thanks for the cache!

on the way back to the mega, this cache caught our eye due to the amount of favorite points. thanks for the cache, we just found it a little tricky on how to access the location (we ended walking in via the train tracks).

Headed down to Queanbeyan for the Clear Waters Mega event over Easter with steeba. We set ourselves a goal of bolstering our find count by doing some of the numerous powertrails that dot the surrounding area.

Grabbed a few early morning caches around Bungendore and great breakfast before hitting the powertrails again. Thanks to the CO's for placing the caches we found.

Teamed up with The Rats to primarily find some of the power trails in ans around the ACT whilst also attending the Mega Event in Queanbeyan. In a couple of days we managed a few hundred finds. The landscape wasn't too bad and we enjoyed the various series placed out. TFTC!

An exceedingly clever hide, worthy of another favourite point from us.
We were lucky the gate was open when we were there as one of the men was just loading some items into his car, and told us that he was locking the gate straight after we left and it would most likely not be open again until after Easter.
Luckily we logged this when we did as we needed the 50 plus points for the Cacheopoly challenge at the Mega.

We were out on the hunt again today for more caches to add to our collection of successful finds, while we were camping at the Mega event. Decided to go out towards Bungendore and then work our way back towards camp. Had a good run and met some other cachers at various points along the way. This was a successful find and the log was duly signed. Thank you Oz Traveller for adding this cache to the geocaching scene. We just love a well placed sneaky hide, which deserves a favourite point from us.

Camping at the showgrounds for the Mega. Headed out to get some caches for the day. Had some fun and enjoyed each find. Lots more caches to find yet. Thanks for this cache.

Out and about on a glorious day at the mega. TFTC

It took a while to realise that I was staring straight at the cache!

Left Port Macquarie heading south to the Mega event .
We are now back at Gundaroo Sports ground.
There are now 7 geocaching teams here. TMann from NZ had a quick stop here looking for a cache, so they spent some time here chatting
Decided to head towards Bungendore & up the side of Lake George
The gate was closed so we walked in from the railway line. Found the odd man out. FP given
Thanks for placing this cache Oz Traveller

Found while out exploring this lovely little village. We had a lovely chat with the Chappys at the men shed who were very interested in our car. Thanks

We're camping at some quiet locations and great little towns that should lead us to the Mega at Queanbeyan.

It's a credit to all the cache owners down here, just about all the finds have been well maintained and with excellent coords.

Camped at the Gundaroo Oval to see if we can find some of the trails around here.

Excellent camo.

Thanks for placing this cache Oz Traveller . We visited this cache at 3:01 p.m. and it's #4106 for us.

The opportunity came up that Joeylovestreasure was looking for a few people to test run the tour she is running as part of the Clear Waters Mega event. Sounded like a great idea and I was keen to join in on her 3 wineries and a Brewery tour, especially as I had opted to help out at the event instead of attending any of the many tours being run over the week.

With dty73, Smittengranny, Joeylovestreasure and myself we set off along the route,
visiting the locations, checking on the caches and seeing that all would be good and ready to go. We did of course stop and find the caches we had yet to find of those on the list as well!

A fun and very enjoyable time with the good company. The tour should be a great day out for those that join in and I'm pleased to have been part of this great little group to experience it.

This is a cache I have been wanting to visit for some time, usually when we are going past we are on our way to or from somewhere and just not the time. Today the gates were open so it was close convenient parking. Half our group stayed in the car while we went to have a look, this is a great hide but didn't escape the radar and a possible location was soon spotted, so also a quick find today. Thanks for the cache Oz Traveller.

Today I was out with Joeylovestreasure, DTY73 and Aquilus beta testing the Winery Tour that Joeylovestreasure is leading at the upcoming Clear Water Mega Event over Easter. We had a great time with lots of laughter, story telling and the occasional serious discussion about caching. Oh yes and we even found some caches!
Thanks for your company girls I really enjoyed the day.
Two of us had found this cache previously which meant two hadn't. It was a quick find at GZ and I was happy to add my name to the log.
Thanks for another good cache Oz Traveller - I'm well on my way to the final souvenir now.

Had stayed in town overnight after tackling the Tarago Series PT specially to tick off a few bonus extras. With this one having so many favourite points, it was a priority though must admit I almost had second thoughts entering an enclosed rail corridor. May be ok to reach GZ when gates to the shed are open (not sure how often that is or when I’d be back) so had luckily discussed access issues with a previous finder before I left home and made a careful dash straight to a sneaky, but quickly identified hide.

IamCoust and I were out clearing some of the near by power trails and thought while in the area we could also pick up a few odd caches I still outstanding around town.
We only got a few as it started to rain a little and it was also very very late? early? well time for bed anyway.

We had picked up a few and thought that while it was way past midnight and NO ONE was around this would be an easy. We had parked off near a cache near the main road and station and just crossed the road and walked around the fence to the shed. Luckily I had a previous finder or it could have taken a lot longer to find. But with the sprinkling of rain coming again we thought it better to make a quicker find and sign and return to the car.

Thanks IamCoust for a great night and of course TFTC Oz Traveller!!! Awesome work!

We weren’t sure if we were really allowed to go past the fence, but being a Sunday morning and no-one around we decided to go for it. We are glad we did as we found the very cleverly hidden cache after a few minutes of searching around the Ground Zero area. We signed the log book and then replaced as found. Thanks so much for the cache and for the information on the cache page. Greetings from Zimbabwe

This one appears to be fenced off now. There is a way in, but as the owners have fenced the block off, we thought they may not appreciate random strangers wandering around. May be better to move this one elsewhere. - Adam & Kahlia

We're on a top-o'-the-bucket-list dream trip through Eastern and Central Australia. Today we left Canberra for Bateman's Bay and Eden, cherry-picking a few caches along the way. This was one of them.

Given Mrs. TTB's eagle eye, this was an easy find. She went right up to it, no GPS required. But we really enjoyed it, and we also enjoyed learning about Men Sheds. Thanks for the cache.

I had a DNF here in 2013. I changed that today to a find. TFTC Oz Traveller.

Finally found the nerve to walk where we thought we shouldn’t. Took a few minutes of poke, prod and twist and turn before we finally located what we were looking for. Nice handiwork. SL TFTCM

One of three caches found on the way back from the coast, TFTC!

Great find, TFTC

An excellent cache and a favourite point from me.

Cool cache and awesome building. TFTC

Back in town and managed to grab this one.
Not sure if anyone should be here anymore since all this area is fenced off and the only way in is via the tracks.
Still found it tho,nice hide!

The train was in town with workers at the shed so had to give this a miss

I could not find the cache and the way in was from the railway tracks

#3148
I was heading to Batemans Bay for a mini break and Bungendore was to be our morning tea stopover and then grab the caches that are in town.
At first, I couldn't work out how to get to GZ seeing there was a wire fence around the perimeter and the gates were locked. Then I realised I could gain access from the level crossing. I wondered whether the tracks were still in use as many of NSW's train lines have been closed. A pair of rails had somewhat of a shine to them so I figured trains of some description still run. I'll ask my brother-in-law about this as he is somewhat of an expert on NSW trains.
The coordinates took me straight to GZ where the excellent cache camouflage was easily spotted by a trained geocaching eye. I can see why this cache has so many favourite points. Adding mine to the tally. Thanks Oz Traveller.

You cant get in without going along the train tracks, and with 2 kids this is not sensible.
