Cache should be archived so it doesn't keep appearing on the map.

Its been 6 weeks now since the CO said he would do something and months and months any action on this.

Any update on when this will be replaced or if it will be replaced???

Its been more than a couple of weeks since 20-7.
 
20-Jul-19
I have been in Europe for the last 4 weeks so unable to replace the cache. I am back 20/07/19 and will aim to replace the cache within a week or so of that date.

I found a tiny magnet on the bush-side of one of the steel posts. It’s really odd. It’s to the right of the table if facing the bush. Could this have something to do with it?
 
26-May-19
I found a tiny magnet where the cache is supposed to be
 
26-May-19
Yep that would be part of it. I’ll have to put a replacement out when up there next. I’ll be away overseas until the end of July.
 
26-May-19
Temporary disable until I can get up to replace the cache.
 
22-May-19
Cannot find sadly
 
04-Aug-18
Again no evidence it was there.
 
22-Feb-18
Suspect that this cache may have gone.Not going to claim a DNF unless owner can confirm that it's still there
 
12-Nov-17
No luck - searched everywhere both in and out of the park
 
05-Aug-17
A couple DNFs suggest this might be missing? Could the CO confirm that it is still in place, please.
 
05-Aug-17
This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.
 
05-Feb-17
Looked in the obvious place but not there
 
06-Jan-17
I had found this along time ago but i came back again and it must have been stolen or something
 
18-Dec-16
Visited with RangerD after the Blue Christmas 2016 event. Started looking but then lots of muggles turned up, we didn't think the adults present would appreciate random people floating around seemingly looking odd.

Team CRuDSS out on a Friday night jaunt. After having dinner in Springwood we decided the cold weather would not hold us back from finding a few caches. This was our fifth and final cache for the night. SL #2585 on streak day #1450 TFTC

Team CRuDSS are contactpete, RIS768, Dave8153, Snoopy1976 and SPY79.

Last for the night, after a great evening out for dinner in springwood with Team CRuDSS, on a freezing night, when snowing in Blackheath.
Fairly easy find, very exposed to be honest, perhaps the shurb was in bloom when placed?

Signed log, replaced

Great camo but really easy to see once you know where it is Wink
TFTC !
 
Out with Team Merlin to find our daily cache to keep our streak going.

Locating another cache near by while in the area we decided to make a find of the cache Our Cache in the Park. We parked beside the park and walked towards GZ walking straight to the cache. Where we made a very quick find of the cache container. With the cache in hand, we both signed the log and replaced as found. The cache log and container are in good condition.

Out with JJCC for a morning cache run in order to find our daily cache to keep our streak going.

Parking at the the top of the park we turned on our GPSr and allowed to lock onto a few sats before proceeding. This allowed us to walk directly to the cache and make a very quick find of the container which is basically just out in the open on the fence. With the cache safely in hand, we both signed the log before replacing as found. The cache container and log are in good condition.

Seven TBs visited - Bob geoMinion, Dave geoMinion, Evil geoMinion, Jerry geoMinion, Larry geoMinion, Stuart geoMinion, Vanlith The Youngling.

Awesome hide Smile great job

Would've been quick, but high muggle activity proved challenging. TFTH.
 
01-Apr-15
How i hav missed this i dunno. Finally can claim that smiley. Dont know why sum people had to go over the fence but i sure didnt have to. Thank u kindly 4 the cache.

This was a tough one. Well hidden, blends in well. One of those you will find straight away or will spend considerable time searching. Overly complicated the search thinking it was on string or cunningly crafted.Tftc

A quick find in the rain whilst heading home from a weekend camping.

On our way back home to Sydney after a night in Katoomba we stopped at this playground. Searched for a while until we found it in a different and unexpected locattion.
 
02-Jan-15
Found with Jimmy, Harry, Joni, Jo and Arid. Tricky to find! Looking for a while and Jo finally spotted it! The kids took to playing in the park! TFTC! Smile

Thanks kids for this hide Smile
 
07-Sep-14
This place looks familiar. I must have looked here before but was out-muggled.
Thanks for the cache.
 
21-Aug-14
A quick and easy find as it was very exposed to passing pedestrian traffic. It was placed into a slightly less obvious location at GZ. TFTC
 
01-Aug-14
Nice day out with yttam and whitemushroom. Nice cache -TFTC
 
24-Jul-14
When we found it we were shocked this cache hadn't been taken by the mini muggles you'd probably see around this area. Glad to see it's in good condition. TFTC.
 
24-Jul-14
On a mid-mountains guided cache seek with yttam and Iker1995, this one has eluded with visits curtailed promptly with park filled with kiddies - not a place for 'fungus to be seen. NAn empty park, and Iker had the cache found, in a surprisingly open GZ. TFTC Smile

Set out early this morning with Jfindit to attempt a few caches in a different area than one we are familiar with this being the lower blue mountains area, this is a great spot with many challenging cache types as well as terrain and difficulty ratings, we had a great day and would recommend the area to anyone who is prepared to test themselves in all environments. tftc paulyman

Tftc. Hate it when the log won't come out!!!!!
 
01-Jun-13
Replaced cache and added new logbook.
 
31-May-13
Visited my geocoin while replacing cache.
 
18-May-13
Cache check today, previous log had me confused as you don't need to leave the park to find the cache. Found the log in the open no where near where the cache should be, cache was MIA. Will be here again next Saturday and will replace the cache.
 
01-Apr-13
Nice cache Very Happy
 
31-Mar-13
Feeling a little stupid when others say they found it so easily. Maybe we need more experience...
 
31-Mar-13
Ok. We persevered and found it. Phew.... But we did have to leave the park to get it, so that was a bit misleading...
 
15-Mar-13
Now where have I seen that type of hide before?....Thanks paulyman, you rock.
 
11-Feb-13
Nice cache Easy find, TFTC
 
11-Jan-13
I needed to headed up the mountains this afternoon so I took the scenic route and grabbed a few caches along the way.
I was surprised to see some local cachers with a cache up here but pleased to revisit this place as this is where I went to pre-school some 40+ years ago. We use to have Christmas parties in this hall and many a great time has been had here.

Thanks
