Thought we'd have a look as apparently it was found again on 19.09.13 but alas no, the cache was no-where to be found.
After this we found 1 other cache in the national park by another member. Then we thought we'd try another path to get back to the car and maybe pick up 1 more cache of your series.
However the path started leading us in the other direction and we ended up on Lewis road. (We parked on falls road).
So we followed Lewis road along until palm tce, turned left and followed this along to the end and back to the national park. Quick check of the map and off we went.
We finally got back to the car after a total of 10 k's walking for the day and the last 1.5k's in the rain. We took of our muddy shoes and swapped our wet shirts for a dry jumper.
Thanks for the caches, it made for a great morning.

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 page and post a note every month or so to keep everyone up to date.

Started making my way to this one but turned back after reading the recent logs. Will try again once its existence has been confirmed.
Obvious location still has evidence of bark I suspect hid the cache. But no cache.
Amazing weather yesterday, but today it was threatening to rain in the afternoon, but we needed to get out of the house and continue our 31 days of Caching souvenir hunt. Day 25 of 31 is not time to stop.
Kinda wish we had read the logs before searching, but it was only about 5 minutes of eliminating every possible hiding hole in the Fire Hole before I checked the last logs..
Its been confirmed as gone Lensterhawks838 by a previous finder. If you intend to replace it please use the disable button on this cache page until you get out here... if you are not replacing the cache for whatever reason, please archive it to stop it turning up on pocket queries. Much appreciated! have enjoyed this series so I do hope you replace it
Cheers

Just a Maintenance flag to alert the owner it has been confirmed by a previous finder as MIA.
Thanks

This would have been our 5th find for the day and we were disappointed that we came up empty handed. On checking the logs it would seem so did a lot of others so we didn't waste any more time and continued on the most gorgeous walk.
looked and looked and looked , spent 20 minutes looking and came up empty. Weather has turned need to ride home quickly
Parked at the end of Connor road with the intention of doing this and "Emu egg" a little further along the trail. Checked recent logs as we approached and decided to give it a miss, it seems there's nothing to find here.
Well keep an eye on it though.

Have been here previously & found it but now cache has been taken. Looks like kids have been here & used it as a cubby.
20 minute search from me while MDV did a 20 minute search also. GZ is totally dessemated and there's no sign of a cache. Would recommend a check when you get the chance since it's a long walk from the first cache and I was disappointed to DNF out here in "the middle of nowhere".
Come back and have a good search but still no luck so please could you check the cache - is still there?? ...
Watch Listing.

Twenty Family Bushwalkers spent about 10 minutes looking in the obvious spot and surrounds without luck.
Parked at the end of Connor Rd and walked to the first of the five then doubled back past the second before continuing to No 5 then returning to the geoute

Another quick find here once we found our way to GZ that was less problematic for my knee than walking from the previous cache over the other side of the valley.
Thanks Lensterhawks838 for the cache.

We had the Baby Bears visiting (well, not so Baby really; they're both in their thirties...) and, during a gap in the games and such, PBL glanced at his phone and saw a new nearby cache. So, pausing only to procure coats and jumpers and to decide which car or cars to go in, etc., we were out the door a scant half-hour later!
We know this gully very well, of course (we even know a song about it!) and Papa Bear had walked past the very spot during a walk earlier in the week.
So, with little ado, we reached the GZ and saw a suspicious pile, but found nothing under it. Then the youngest Bear cub, unencumbered by our preconceptions, looked a little closer and turned up the little bottle, which had some ink in the FTF box that was still damp...
Then we all marched back down the hill and up the creek and home again, home again.
Thanks for the excuse for an airing, 'Hawks!

This was published just as we (finally) sat down for Mother's Day lunch and only 1.4km from my mothers house. After lunch I was able to convince my Dad to come out for the hunt. Dad saw the hiding spot from 30m out and we checked each scroll to ensure that we were indeed FTF at 4:50pm. Took the WWFMIX tag. TFTC Leinsterhawk.
