This cache has been missing for a long time and we believe that it will be muggled once again if we hide it. Therefore, we have decided to archive it.
I had intended to cache somewhere else today but with a new puzzle cache being published today I quickly solved it and so got the first to find.
So while in the area I thought I would find a few other caches as well.
Stopped by here as my last cache for the morning ... unfortunately (after checking the previous logs) this one seems to be missing.
As there have been a few DNF logs I am adding a Needs maintenance log.

Going to assume it has been stolen by pirates or relocated. 4 of us were on the hunt for over an hour but could not locate it.
Assuming it is meant to be in one of the two logical places, no sign of it. For a container that size, perhaps it has been muggled.
Found at 2.47 no swap only one aussie card. 1inch of water in container tried to dry left a new rite in rain log sheet for future finders.
There was a heavy shower as I waited in the car for some time, but then it cleared and the sun appeared and I was able to set off. This is a lovely little trail. The cache was found in the logical location, although the log was soaked I could still make my mark.
Thanks TH4 for the cache.

Found it but no log or anything in box so left some paper and a swap to start it off again
Found it an realised we had lost out pen :/ will have to come bac to sign another day tftc
We went out this morning early and found the cache hiding place quickly but all that was there was the lid and container scattered. Replaced in hiding place with piece of paper for log. Greetings from New Zealand
We had been at the beach most of the afternoon and we stopped in here at the shops to grab an icecream on the way. Anth looked around for a cache and yep there was one within walking distance. So we all ate our icecreams and wandered off to GZ. Sal spotted this sneaky hide from a few meters away while Anth pottered around in the wrong spot. Thanks for placing the 728th cache that we have found so far TH4!
Super easy but it made me happy! Came in from the wrong side so our walk was cut short but it had an exceptional view
This is one of those trails we would not have known about had it not been for caching. At first we thought the hiding spot was in the old stump and were starting to investigate further (carefully avoiding a couple of bits of glass) but had to abandon that search due to muggles. As we moved away to protect ground zero (and go admire some other trees as is our practice), the other half of the team spotted a familiar flash of blue and when the area was safe were about to retrieve the container. Cool hiding spot!
Unfortunately our afternoon in the area was limited due to the need to head to mum's for a family celebration. There are many hidden treasures still to be found in the area so we will be back. We've enjoyed all we've discovered today. Thanks for the cache.

I was given a guided tour of TH4's caches today! (my nephews, who I'm currently visiting). The cache was easily found, after being given the hint and pointed in the right direction. Signed log, TFTC!!
Out and about today with Hyperdog (Geokid's Aunty who is visiting home from London), showing her our geocaches. Hyperdog originally introduced us to geocaching back in 2006, and helped us place our first geocache (Aussie Animals Series - Kookaburra Cache). Since then, we have placed a further 8 geocaches, turning 5 into a series (Aussie Animals Series).
Didn't take too long. Geokid found $5! Cache in good condition. Moving on! - TH4!

Nice hide, easy enough to find, great hint. Left Oreo cookie geo coin which we found in Broome last year and forgot about
Good hide! Our 2nd attempt as last month we couldn't find at first, but this time was able to find quickly! SL & swapped swag, one of my geokids says thanks to a previous Geocacher for the rock as he's a collector, so he was rapt TFTC!
Found it! Beautiful walk to spot we didn't even know existed! Pretty easy find! Took a plastic dog, left a gem stone!
Out with newbie Cabacurl investigating some caches. What a lovely afternoon to be searching. Easy find. TFTC TH4.
Out & about with Joojoo57, exploring this neck of the woods on a beautifully sparkling afternoon. Thanks for the cache in this beautiful park with some gorgeous gumtrees.
We did some grocery shopping and then set off for the cache.
Its a lovely little walk and park, perfect for a cache, as is the hiding spot!
Thanks TH4, good hide.

Great cache. Nice and private. Took a purple elephant and will place in the next cache we find. GIDDIUP!
We found this one easy enough, although there were a few muggles around so had to be crafty and sneaky about it. Lovely area to look around regardless and some great swaps that my little geo-adventurer loved! TFTC
Searched for the cache around 5:20 PM. No luck. Disabling it until further notice. TH4
Out on the geocycle today trying and sadly failing to collect some smileys. My fourth, and not my last DNF for the day.
The path was quite busy, which made hunting difficult. I did check two likely spots, but I did not find a cache

I was just itching to get out of the house and we had a date to fill in anyway so I chose some caches down south thanks to new ones being placed by new and old cachers, thanks guys!!
I picked a good access point which ended up being from the other end as it turned out.
I approached GZ and between muggles I searched!
My search was fruitless for a while and I was almost convinced that the cache must have been muggled but I continued and searched in a slightly different area and JACKPOT I had the cache in hand YIPPEE!!!
Thanks TH4 TFTC SL TNLN

I like these bush areas where you can hear the traffic but are removed from it. I hope this place does work as a wildlife corridor. It's certainly a wild life spot for some school kids . Boy meets girl for some after- school care.
Spent most of the day with some good friends in Tally Valley, high up on the hill. What a view they've got. Anyway on the way home I talked the Mrs into stopping in the car park while I took a stroll across the boardwalk. Not a bad little creek trickling underneath, it would probably be a good place to stand after a heavy down pour. Around to GZ where I checked the wrong place first, then to high and then found it. No one around so it was a quick peaceful sign and replace.
Thanks for the cache TH4

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

Had the chance to grab 4 caches on the day while down in the area for an appointment. Glad to be able to just grab a few caches on a nice day. Thanks to all cache owners for hiding and maintaining their caches.

This was a tricky one with all the muggles walking past, but persistence paid off. TFTC.

I parked the car and wandered along the boardwalk towards the cache. A few meters from the GZ was a lady with a plastic container in her hand.
I was about to say "Can I sign that after you?" but as I got closer I saw that the plastic container was filled with sushi and she was just using the nearby stump as a shady spot to rest the container while she ate.
I kept on walking and glanced back a few times just in case the "sushi stop" was just a ploy to confuse the muggles...... but it was just that.... someone stopping in the shade to eat some sushi.
Once she moved along I checked the log book and there were no other entries for today. Sometimes muggles are just muggles.
Thanks for the cache TH4. Cheers!!
Find number 1836.... so here is something you didn't know (or maybe did know) about 1836...... On the 13th of July 1836 the first numbered U.S. Patent 1 (after filing 9,957 unnumbered patents) is granted, to John Ruggles for improvements to railroad steam locomotive tires.

Easy find after taking the geo kids to have back to school haircuts. Dropped off trackable.
Found on my way home from the movies this afternoon. Just a slight detour brought me the few klms further south west needed to take a short walk through a remnant of creekside bushland. Thanks TH4.
An early start for us today and thought we would have a go at this new one. Interesting little boardwalk here. I have been to the local shopping centre a few times but never down the walk. Congratulations to AL on your FTF! Signed log and added a small pencil to the bag to assist future cachers. Retrieved AL pathtag. TFTC. SL.
Saw that this was published some few hours ago while we were having a Housewarming BBQ at our son's home in Helensvale. After seeing an unlogged new cache waiting for a FTF we couldn't resist heading out and giving it a go. In the dark we wandered a bit more than we needed to but are very happy to report a clean log for a FTF at 9:03pm. Thanks for a new cache TH4. We have a daughter and her family living not far from here. This was a nice little walk. Took: geocoin for FTF and Left: our signature pathtag.
