Maybe it's out of my own frustration because I live near this cache and it always comes up in my searches but it has been longer than the allowed time, hasn't it? It should be replaced or archived so other cachers can place in the vicinity!
Hello? Just wondering if there's any news on this one... If a new cache is on its way or if the CO has lost interest and whatnot because it's been a while!
sorry, we were assured the cache was there, but checke ourselves and it's gone. we'll get it up again soon.
With the reassurances that it's still there I tried again, this time with Mandalf. Couldn't find it even after a thorough search.
Went to take geodog for a walk and even though the last three logs are DNFs this cache isn't far from my house so I tried it anyway. Probably influenced by the fact that a former finder couldn't find it so wasn't too optimistic but, yeah, I couldn't find anything so would think it's no longer there then
A previous finder in tow, Hoojar and I still couldnt put our hand ont his one today. Maybe next time.
Came with The Rats and a previous finder. We could not locate the cache. I'm not saying it isn't there, but I reckon there is a good chance that it is gone.
Find #1271 - 6 for today. Found on 5/08/12 12:45 PM
Found the way down from Ada st and wasn't long before the cache was located. Watch out for spider webs. How unusual is that USB stick. Thanks TNSLLN

Nice park in an urban area! Mrs Gaztek is not fit for off-road caching at the moment. So Mr G had to hoof it into GZ with Mrs G making suggestions from above - gheesh! Aha - there it is. TN L a butterfly USB drive (has to be seen to be believed) and two St Mary McKillop badges SL TFTC Cheers.... Gaztek
We now have the full set of NickyRobbie caches!!

I ended up coming in along the cycleway, after failing to find the stairs off Ada St. After a short search it was soon cih, thanks NR.
TFTC! Cache camo looks to have fallen off. Pushed some more camo up against it so it wasn't so out in the open.

found it, nice cache, first cache of the day. Found it with a friend left geocoin and elastic bracelets took spy book.
After negotiating the farmer's friends this one was pretty straightforward once at GZ. TFTC!
Simple cache in nice bushy parkland. An easy find. Took the poker chips, and left a photo frame. TFTC!
TFTC, It was a surprise to find a trackable and to boot one we had travelled so far with before. I had to take it to show Nana Nel who was at home so will drop it of somewhere again tomorrow. Visited with trackables finding local Caches and building up Kms with us.
What a good cache, looked in the wrong spot for a while and then looked around and found it, TFTC
Found on a good day in a short caching session. Good local cache, TFTC. The previous posts were right about the spiders, there was a massive web with three or four Golden Orbs barring the path...one of them was really huge.
A nice easy find after using the stone steps. This path is well used, so no spider worries here, but they could be a problem if you bush bash. TFTC.

Fortunately there was no need to bushbash down the hill, as there was a set of rock stairs down to the right level nearby.
With the GPSr showing 8M to go, and 8M accuracy, I was at a spot that looked right so I started looking there anyway, and was rewarded with an immediate find.
The log was dry, the cache contained water.
Find #990,
leaving only 4 days over the coming month to complete the caching calendar, and only 9 cache finds to go to make OzMega #1000.

3:15pm FTF GREAT! I am a happy chappie. This one came up just as I left work.
I haven't been to this park before and it is a nice spot. You are right about the spider webs.
Well done NickyRobbie on your first.
TFTFTF and cache.
