The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am 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 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Like the previous two finders,even tho the posts are logged as "finds" we hunted for a good 20 mins without success. Think it may have been muggled. Shame it,s a great location

Harveyspectre and the running girls 21/8/2015 could not find even after exhaustive searching ~ disappointed
 
21-Aug-15
DNF looked and looked and looked some more. Used photos for clues. Still no find. Think it's gone Sad
 
12-Aug-15
Found while on holiday at the Coast, but the clues were completely misleading. It's not near a tree or roots at all, unless you count what it's under as an ex-tree. A bit of rubbish around had us CITOing the area before leaving, and I had a bit of a go on the spinning play equipment nearby too! Picked up the sun TB, but saw no toher in the cache. A bit of random junk that we removed, though. TFTC, silvaslugnbeetlcacha. =^.^=

Just about gave up on this one but eventually found it. Clues were not helpfull. Nice spot and a beautiful Goldcoast day. Exchanged trackables so will take one back across the Tasman...

09-Aug-15
Quick find by ajjnr86, I was a little distracted by the playground to be fair though Wink
 
09-Aug-15
Was a few moments when I thought the cache was muggles as there was an empty container on a bench, but searched and found the cache safe and sound
 
04-Aug-15
Nearly gave up on this one. Confusing clues. The photos helped.

25-Jul-15
At first we thought we'd have trouble finding a parking spot but as luck would have it there was a space right beside the surf club! We headed along the beach and up the little path. A few muggles passed us but soon disappeared so we were able to make the find undetected. Now off to the Surf Club for a little refreshment! TFTC.
 
16-Jul-15
What a cold day to be out on our bikes, quick find. TFTC
 
14-Jul-15

Kind regards from Germany *Hammerbruder*

Was quite difficult to find it because there were a lot of muggles going to the beach but I waited for the right moment to look for it.
The hint led me astray at first, it's not really helpful Wink
I can recommend to combine this cache with a beautiful beach walk or jog to the north of Surfers Paradise.
TFTC and greetings from Germany

Forgot to bring a pencil so couldn't write a note cleverly secluded.

Found with Gonefishen07 we are trying to grab a few caches while here on holidays. This is one of the one that we were lucky enough to find. Took two goes to find this one. GF07 made the find in the end. Hint is useless, but I guess what it is near use to be a tree TFTC
 
12-May-15
Found with zobo04 looked for this one in the dark came back in daylight and after a bit of a search finally found it. The hint is of no use at all it is not even near a tree well hang on a technically what it is near used to be a tree. Maybe CO should check it or redo hint. Tftc

Not sure what the clue has to do with the hide.

Did a bit of searching between beach muggles returning from the beach.
