Hi JackaKid,
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 30 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 30 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.

Can see where the cache should be (there's an obvious indent under the rocks at the base of the tree), but alas there is no cache.
Found on a trip around town while at Canberra for a few days.
A few good hides and not many muggles around here.
Found all spread around, replaced a temp log sheet at tree.
Looks like muggles are here often so it may not last.
Thanks for the cache JackaKid,

Very close to houses
Quick find, all in order.
I needed to get out while the weather was so good. The rest of the family was not up for a longer walk though, so I picked a trail at the upper end of Gungahlin which looked urban enough that Wilma would not be sad missing this one. Nice long walk with lots of caches found. I am gald I did the trail now as a number are missing and others in poor shape so you never know how long they will last.
Thank you JackaKid for putting the cache out and maintaining it.

Over from Adelaide to see the inlaws celebrate Cachemas day tomorrow.
Found thanks to hint

Found with nissan 65 on a few days caching in Canberra. We headed up monday night after work and stayed at our usual over night spot in Goulburn before heading out to Canberra. Returning home today. Thankyou to all cache owners for placing these for our enjoyment.
Although the weather was rather unpleasant tonight, I decided to push on and continue with my caching plan. However it was between GC5VTAM and this one that the weather and rain became almost like a blizzard. It wasn't a lot of rain but the wind whipped it up into a frenzy and it pelted my face with its freezing touch. I had to walk backwards for a brief time to get some relief. I just hoped it would pass soon. Thankfully I arrived at gz and quickly made the find. The log was full but I squeezed my name on. I stayed a little longer here sheltering behind the tree. But 2 caches wasn't enough for tonight so I bravely pushed on. TFTC
Thanks for the cache! Found with legocacher79, chakram and yengah.
Was nice to explore in different neighbourhood.

Found with friends,including a first time cacher, whilst exploring the area. Nice views. TFTC
Found while out walking the trail. Many of the caches in this series need new logs or have damaged containers. TFTC.
JohnnyBoyACT and I went in search of geocaches in Mulligans Flat, Bonner and along the ACT’s northern border today. The weather was sunny although cool, the bush of Mulligans Flat was quiet and frosty and the views over Gungahlin from the northern border were most impressive. In all, I added 33 caches to my tally, with two DNFs. This cache was a straightforward find, being in an obvious spot on the coordinates. Thank you JackaKid for installing and maintaining this cache.
A day of caching with Kambahkid in Mulligans Flat NR, the high side of Bonner and up onto the Canberra Centenary Trail. We did some of JackaKid's VC series and others on the line and some of Champs2Monkeys' CCT series. TFTC.
One of about 11 caches that I found in this little series today.
Lovely sunny day and so quiet being Easter Friday.
Thanks for the placement. All caches attempted found easily though some caches need to replace the logs sometime soon
Cheers

It seems silly, I only stopped yesterday in this suburb to knock it off my mapping challenge and here I am today trying to clear it out completely. I am starting to struggle to find decent amounts of caches in the one location (first world geocaching problem I know), but these jumped out at me yesterday while stopping to grab my 'Bonner' find, so at lunchtime today at my first day back at work in a little while I decide to come up here and see if I can do them all in a lunchtime. Turns out you can... as long as you take quite a long lunchtime
End of cut and paste section
This was the third find of the day and the cache was easily found, lots of house construction going on just up the road but I dont think they noticed me. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache

We haven't done a long caching walk for a couple of weeks, so thought we'd head out early today to tackle some up near Mulligan's Flat. We couldn't take The Woofer (she wasn't allowed, sadly!) but we still spent a nice few hours wandering the hills, collecting caches and checking out the views. Although most of them were (unfortunately) mint tins or similar, there were a few nice containers that we could leave swaps in. Found 28 caches in 3 hours. Not too shabby!
Another quick find. TFTC!

Same story. Short walk, easy find, only the apparent temperature varies ... TFTC.
Being the last day of holidays before going back to work, I was determined to fit in a final cache ride and this collection up around the back of Jacka was on my radar. After waiting for the storms to pass and some of the day's heat to dissipate, I set off to Mulligans Flat Road to do all this in the, for me, logical reverse order. A run that started out well, but finished a bit disappointingly with a series of non-finds. Still very enjoyable!
The second in the run and another straightforward find. There will be plenty of these containers today, I imagine. TFTC
Random draft log word for this cache: Mammal

With no hangover and a warm new years day i decided to head to jacka to some more of the jackakid series. Most caches were easily found but theres certainly a few in need of new log and cache containers. Great walk and series. Thanks JackaKid
This one is so close to muggles I could smell them cooking a delicious curry. TFTC
Another one to the GeoKids and once again this one tricked them on the hidey spot!
I've got a plan to reach my 8000th find by the 29th but having another 300 to find i needed a couple of weekends in rich caching grounds. Just my luck that i chose to go to Canberra before seeing the temperature forecast!
I only had a few caches left to find on the way down, but once i got there, i hast plenty to choose from. Only the cold slowed me down.
In the end i managed to get 59.
Thanks for the cache.

Glad to be able to park close to this one today. I forgot my boots. Log almost full. TFTC
Suscoe ventured out on Australia Day in Canberra for a terrific day of caching and enjoying all things Canberra.
We covered a bit of territory and found a good number of caches.
The weather was sunny and warm with almost no breeze.
We were surprised that the roads were pretty quiet and so were the parks and reserves.
Such a good range of caches in some nice locations.

Found today. Initially I planned to go visit a lake but found myself here instead. It was a Quick find in line with others of jackal ids series.

Day six in Canberra with BettyBoo3747. Deadly treadlies back out and headed to the northern suburbs for a couple of trails. We did a bit more of Section 2 of the CCT, and a few JackaKid caches, along with a few extras along the way (this means you - Fore!).
Interesting information about the VC, and another quick find.
Thanks, Robmc.

#11321. Day 6 of our two week Canberra Holiday with Robmc. After a few days of walking it was back to the bicycles and time to have a most enjoyable ride collecting more caches along the CCT through Mulligans Flat Nature Reserve.
After a nice lunch break we continued on around the suburb on the non-existent bike paths and collected a few JackaKid caches. Most were in dreadful condition and either need maintenance or archiving.
Log found and signed.
Thanks JackaKid

Today I decided to tackle some of JackaKids caches while I had the chance to increase my numbers a bit more. It was very hot and I certainly wouldn't recommend walking this trail in the heat as much of it is quite exposed.
This cache was #15 of 16 finds today. Thanks again for the new logs someone is leaving thus keeping the trail going. SL as SG

Down from the Shire and out on a local geomission with my sister, specimenX
All up made 26 finds and only 1 DNF due to possibly being muggled. Brilliant weather and good placements made for a great few hours of caching.
Thanks to all the cacheowners

#1955 Out caching with Green-Martian and Co. Weather was not at its best as we walked around Bonner. Quick easy find. TFTC JackaKid.
F(H)ound It! No.1324 - @1:44:00 PM
Cache in good nick - it seems from previous logs that we have Froggycacher to thank for the recent maintenance of this series. Thanks for the cache, JackaKid

Spider webs out first then cache. Log signed, took advantage of the new dry sheet.

I've made a habit of replacing the log bags in the JackaKid VC caches - they're bulky and make it hard to remove the logs. I found this one without a bag about 10 days ago, but didn't have a bag at the time. Added a small bag this morning, and also a small piece of notepaper as additional log as the original has no space left.
5669 Found by baby&Mrs gopher on a drive around the suburbs of Canberra north at 1140. The Mrs was waiting at the start of the walking track that heads down the back of the residences. So grabbed and SL for this one on the way past. Tnx JackaKid.
9:15pm 13/7 - easy find in the dark. The log is mostly full, I'll drop another in later.
Quick find, log was full and wet but we still had enough room to sign it. TFTC!
