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.

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.

19-Sep-20
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!
 
19-Sep-20
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!
 
19-Aug-20
Time to stop I think , winds are crazy right now !!
Quick find thanks
 
14-Jul-20

06-Jul-20
Tftc replaced new log, as other saturated.
 
03-Jul-20
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!
 
03-Jul-20
Log saturated.
 
28-Jun-20
Mission failed
 
24-Jun-20
nice and easy, probably should change log tho due to water damage
 
13-Jun-20
Easy find, trolley gives it away! The cache is waterlogged
 
30-May-20
Sadly no joy here today Sad
 
20-May-20
Found the ants nest!
 
17-May-20
Somewhat easy find. Water logged!
 
17-May-20
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.
 
02-May-20
Found
 
11-Apr-20
It was waterlogged. I didn’t take the note out as it would have fallen apart.
 
15-Mar-20
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.

Actually found on Tuesday. Thought I'd logged. Anyway, great camouflage I started at it for some time before my brain caught on.
 
27-Jan-20
Will be back on a cooler day to do this as part of the trail. Just too hot to search any longer.

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
 
25-Sep-19
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.

TFTC # 3562

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.

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!

Not the hardest, yet not the easiest.

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
