Hi Mozy04,
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.

Could CO please do a cache check on this cache and the other 4 in this mini-series to make sure they are still there and can be found. If not please replace them as I would love to find them.
This was a quick find with the clues given , the log is a bit damp but still able to sign it, but I put in the wrong date (21st) TFTH.
Nice hide. Really needs a new log , I suspect it’s been wet and it’s close to being a paper mashy. TFTC
Miss 7 found it straight away with the clear hint! A great start to our day.
As many have said is ruined

Find on a dreary, soaking wet Saturday. And it wasn't just me - the log is soaked and I couldn't get it out without tearing it to pieces. So I didn't, and took a photo instead.
A quick grab after finding Lickets closed
The log was a bit damp but we stamped it and put it back. TFTC

We thought we would start the year of with a few caches. This was a nice way to spend the day. Pretty easy find first up. Log is wet and needs changing. TFTC
Found, pen wasn’t working just took photo of log for proof. Will come back at a later date to put my name on it
An easy find, doing that trail in reverse order so a nice finish.
Log book was damp.

On yet another late night geoventure with Mizcupcake tonight. We met up and headed over to Harrington Park to pick up a couple of caches we have left. Seeing as we already found some of the late trail caches we moved to #1 and started there. Parking in a street close by and making the walk down to gz while we we're enjoying the quite night. Searching around for a couple of minutes and i had CIH. We completed signing duties and replaced. TFTC!
Out with Littl3Vix on our late night run. We hit up Harrington Park tonight to grab the ones on the trail we did not have yet. I parked in a side street that was close by and we made our way up to the main road. Oh gosh, I felt so exposed at GZ even after dark!! Luckily it was a quick find for us tonight. I'm glad I came at night to try this one, I probably wouldn't have attempted it during the day! Thanks for the cache!
Puzzling... When I was here a few weeks back I did a *very* thorough search of GZ to no avail. Today I found the cache very easily in a place it definitely was not the first time - very easily seen but almost impossible to extract and really not as per the hint. Had to use a nearby natural TOTT to extract. The log was saturated and difficult to get out and sign. After doing so I placed it back in a spot which was in line with the hint and where a previous finder had told me it was located. CO may want to check. Tftc!
As the rain crept in we did panic for a bit but after looking from a few angles, a “found it” from teganwells lifted spirits! Log is wet however we took a photo as evidence without giving anything away.
Accidentally logged as a find last time thinking it was a different cache but we've really found it now. Along with an ants nest.
Streak Day #2419 - Out this way with Dave8153 for a cache of the day, took a couple of mins to find but we got there. TFTC

Actually found on Tuesday. Thought I'd logged. Anyway, great camouflage I started at it for some time before my brain caught on.
Will be back on a cooler day to do this as part of the trail. Just too hot to search any longer.
Find # 5652
Found with sesblocker.
Using Bent's Basin as a base, we've ventured out to collect a few smileys.

It was in such an obvious spot yet took ages to find. Great spot to start off a great series. Log is saturated so took photo. TFTC
After a great day at Mt Annan Botanic Gardens enjoying the different garden areas and all the native birds, including some rare ones I headed towards Narellan instead of home to grab a couple of caches before heading back to Sydney's north.
This was my first stop, not sure I like to live in this street, it'd be tricky entry at some times of the day. Once I parked the geomobile it was just a short walk to GZ. A quick look revealed nothing from where I was but some careful feeling out of view spots and I had CIH.
The log sheet is quite damp but still signable, but it did make rolling the log back up tricky.

A nice finish to Streak Week. The log in this one has become wet, possibly with the recent rain. TFTC.
A clever place to hide. One of the first places we looked but wasn't obvious to see
Another Friday arvo cache find with hooky68 on our way home. 1 of 2 we found. Nice place for a hide. Looking forward to doing the rest of the trail another time. TFTC.
Another Friday arvo cache grab with Gundrills.
Fast find and useful hint.
Log is damp and needs replacing.

Today I teamed up again with marj01 for another day of caching, this time around the Narellan/Camden/Cobbity areas. We had a very enjoyable and adventurous day visiting the cache locations, finding a heap of hides but also a few DNF's along the way.
A quick find. TFTC.

Didn't look at the hint and kicked a large ant nest. Nice hide. Time to do the track!
On the area visiting my nephew so walked around with him grabbing a few caches

Finally the Harrington Park trail was commenced! Rassilon256 was all over this one, securing the find within seconds. TFTC
After a few hours distracted in Mount Annan we finally made it to our objective for the day, the Harrington Park Trail. Once we got there the general location was immediately obvious but it took me a few moments to investigate the exact right spot. Under way at last!
We did numbers 6 to 2 in this series by foot after parking near some tennis courts. It became obvious that it wasn't going to be practical to walk to this one from where we were, so we returned to the car and drove. We parked in the nearby McDonalds and walked back.
WaywardWoman couldn't work out why this cache wasn't appearing on her phone but it was on my GPS from the query this morning. She had no memory of it, but she later discovered from her logs that she had found it a couple of years ago. Nevertheless, I made an instant find here. Thanks
