Hi ipswichsearchers,
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 28 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 28 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.

Unfortunately, I think this geocache has been washed away in the February heavy rains / flood event. A string of DNFs seems to suggest that this is missing, so a CO check may be required, thanks.
This evening with the publish of a couple of new geocaches in Ipswich, I decided to make the drive and explore the area. I quite enjoyed seeing a few of the local monuments and the University of Southern Queensland campus, and I ended the night by checking out a few creek caches.
On my way home this evening, I made a stop here, already thinking this may be an iffy cache to find in light of the recent Brisbane heavy rains/floods. I had a good search around and made a real troll of myself, but alas, no cache was spotted. I suspect this cache may have gone in the floods, so a CO check may be required. Thanks anyway ipswichsearchers for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

A nice quick find today. As mentioned the container is missing its lid, but the log is dry enough to sign GM. a pity about the few mm of rain last night, but the shoes can be scrubbed clean. TFTC, ipswichsearchers.
Stopping for a cache in Ipswich on our way home.

This was great, thank you very much! Our first tricky find. The cache reminded us of a chameleon!
WARNING. We did not find the geocache as there was a resident snake living his best troll life and guarding our prize. Maybe next time
Out and about on my walk on a brisk Brisbane morning - nice spot log dry and back in bag, though as mentioned lid is missing TFTC ipswichsearchers
DNF. Quite muddy here this morning which made searching thoroughly difficult. Till next time
Had some help from the lovely local doing her walk. If you see the nice older lady making her rounds with her corgi, make sure to say hi! Super friendly
Dropped by to earn our first souvenir of 2020. Happy New Year & TFTC!
