Hi contactpete,

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 4 weeks) 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 4 weeks 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.

Found what is left of the GC
NEEDS URGENT MAINTENANCE

This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.

Cache has been in bad state for a log period if time without owner maintenance. There is only an empty bottle without a lid or a log and reading the previous logs it has been this way for many months.

Submitted via Garmin Live Geocaching

As per the previous photo. No log or lid to container. Maintenance required, will message owner. TFTC

Container with no lid, no log and been like this for a while. Needs some TLC

A nice quick find on our road trip. Tftc

Found on our roadie, enjoying finding some Aussie caches.

I found it., but had no log paper in it.

Happy there were no legless lizards but very long grass. TNLN TFTC

Quick find with my dad the garbageman.

Glad there were no legless guardians but it’s a cracking spot for one! Cache container is empty and needs fixing! See photo.

Container needs some love!

Found empty container

Found the same empty cache as others have.

No lid. No log.

Found it but I don’t have go-go gadget arms!

Found it but I’ve got short arms

Cache needs maintenance, no log, no lid. TFTC.

Found It!
Interesting bit of history and a nice little walk. Got to GZ, found an empty painted container on the ground and then a mint tin with a logbook in it hidden nearby.
TFTC

went as a group, took a bit of hunting but found it eventually ! wear long pants or you will end up with scratched legs. TFTC

Nice view of the motorway if that is such a thing. Just a case of which likely location to spot.

Thanks again.

So fun, so beautiful at sunset

TFTC From this neglected patch of road

Was a bit wary of snakes but an easy find after all. TFTC

Found today on a little cache drive after spending the day at Sydney Zoo, found a few caches around our hotel before heading back and getting showered and ready for dinner! Had an amazing time caching around an area i've never been before.

TFTC

#5610
After a day at the zoo and a swim at the hotel, we headed out for some pre-dinner caches. We went for easy to grab roadside type stuff, managing a baker's dozen for the afternoon.
After missing a park for the first on our list, we diverted here - and spotted the geotrail, which helped for a quick find.... TFTC...

Also took the wrong geopath at first, but once I went back and checked the next one up I soon found it. TFTC

#6162.
I was in the area on a business trip and after work there was time for some exploring and a couple of caches. I also took the wrong geotrail at first, carefully lifting a couple of rocks and coming up empty handed. I then took a new route and quickly spotted the cache. TFTC!

How many endings can there be. Road was very slippery, much to my surprise. And its very interesting how well nature takes its own back. Every crack in that tar, has something growin in it. Of course, like most, i went to the most prominent one, following the Path Luke, but it twasnt there, twas it? Stopped raining thankfully.

Nice spot and easy to find.

Ooo long grass TFTH

Quick find tftc

Tfth

First time geocacher here. Didn't know what to to expect. Was an easy walk from the parked car. A bit soggy underfoot but thankfully the grass wasn't too tall.

A nice quick find, thanks!

This IS The end! End of road end of conference, end of day, it's dark and it has just rained and I found it! Nearly gave up but read the logs carefully. Yay!

TFTC! Little trek through the grass, not the first place we looked, or the second, but the third one gave us a smiley!

Nice and easy TFTC!

bit of a bush walk if u ask me

I'll come back when it's no so boggy under foot...

This one was a quick find and there’s been a total eclipse of the cache here. I don’t love stomping through tall grass but thankfully the weather was cool and a bit rainy so it wasn’t complete snakefest weather TFTC

Should have checked there first, not the most pleasant of searches, but hey a smiley is a smiley

Quick easy find I needed today.

The new container eclipsed the old container

Not a pleasurable cache to find....wading waist length in long grass to get to....I was scared of snakes but my eye was on the prize TFTC

Ran out of time
Will be back

Good find. TFTC

Stopped by a while back. No luck with too many spiders.

Nothing out to kill me today!

TFTC a nice easy find

contactpete I found your cache This is the end #3 on 23/5/21, 2:45 pm. This is my find 3213 and find # 14 today. After a brief search soon had CIH. Lucky not in the spikey stuff. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN

We have travelled from Sydney’s Northern Beaches to Emu Plains for a short 3 day caching holiday, staying in a park cabin at the Ingenia Nepean River BIG4 Holiday Park at Emu Plains, and are planning to explore the areas between Penrith and Warragamba, including a stop-off on arrival day at St Marys. Hoping to collect some previously solved Puzzle caches and to also complete the Adventure Labs at St Marys, Penrith and Warragamba. Will also be on the hunt for Natural Wonders and Solar System Wonders, to complete the Wonders of the World souvenir challenge. This was our 6th find of the day, and 6th find of the holiday.

Had to park short of the cache, as the road had a locked gate, and walk down the road to GZ. Area is very overgrown, but we pushed on through the tall grass and soon spotted the hide and had CIH. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. TFTC contactpete.

Find #4515

I didn’t find the cache but the grass is also around chest height. I did find a hole with some logs in it though I didn’t see the cache nearby.

While the GZ were clear of muggles the close by M4 was quite noisy. I pity the people living in the house next to where i parked, they’d never get any peace and quiet.
Its an interesting spot. A historical artifact left to slowly sink back into nature now that it is no longer required.
I located the cache easily. Unfortunately, as noted by previous finders the cache has lost its lid and was filled with some water.
I placed a new replacement container and log next to the old one.
Thanks.
#1285

That's a wrap for us we have to go back home after a nice trip.
At GZ quick find. We couldn't sign the book. The lid of the container is missing and it's full of water. We didn't have any spare container.
TFTC

Parkrun for start of Christmas 2020 and then some caches and labs on my way home. All my favourite activities in one day. What better way to celebrate?
TFTC Wilbert67

Quick stop and grab with Adventure-fox after a day out playing frisbee golf

Out on a Saturday adventure with BarberBlackSheep playing frolf and collecting smilies. Been meaning to grab a few of the local caches near mine for a while and slowly checking them off as I’m always grabbing the further away ones.
Quick find, no lid but a little friend was guarding the cache!
TFTC

Interesting facts about the area. There are better places to put this cache. Snake hazards and hole hazards

Careful looking for this in summer as lots of tall grass

Still needs repair but fun

Warning:
Thanks to a tip off from a previous log, there is a devious hole right infront of GZ.

I've stuffed the hole with a brick and old rotting wood to make safe.
PLEASE BE CAREFUL - as I'm not sure how well it will hold up in future.
I did step on it to make sure it was somewhat sound and it was for the time being.
Please becareful.


Pretty simple cache, has potential to be a much bigger Cache.
Pete, if you could be bothered - there's a good spot roughly 10m away if you're interested.
Also, lid is missing on the container.

TFTC

Lid is missing on cache.

Also, there is a hole infront of GZ which could cause injury to cachers.

If you want me to help, let me know.

6found with 2 muggles lord reaper and catlynxx... no lid on cache

First find with my brother. Second find for me

Quick find, watch out for the hole close to gz, I got my foot stuck!

Cache container missing lid. Log is dry.TFTC. The 4Rods.

Easy find, but this container has seen better days and does not have a lid. Needs to be replaced.
SL TFTC

Interesting story about the road going through before the M4 was built. From google maps you can see where it went.

I left the geomobile at the gate and walked up.
Once at GZ, well it could have been an endless search and it looked a bit snakey so I procured a large stick to help. Once the phone settled it seemed to want me in a particular area so I tried searching there, but came up empty handed. Next thing, check the log photos - so I then knew what I was looking for.
Bit more searching and I returned to area the phone liked. OK, is that it?

How do I reach that?
I couldn't do it. I wonder if it is really where the CO intended or did he intend the other one???
So after a bit of modification to the camo and several wounds to my arm (bleeding too) I was able to just reach the cache. The lid wasn't on it and although I could see it I couldn't reach it. SL and replaced as found. Its not going to rain any time soon so the cache should be OK.

Don't think my modifications to the camo will help anyone else. In fact I'm sure!

TFTC # 3733

Again with mystic force.

Some fab plants along this stretch. TFTC.

TFTC! Not where we first looked.

#711 Easy find, log is a little damp but managed to leave our mark. TFTC

Quick find stupid farmers friends

We stopped by on the way through to enable YGAT to fill a blank on her calendar. We checked out the obvious spots before stumbling upon the cache.

Good one, thanks contactpete.

As I needed a find today, Mr MR kindly drove me over to attempt this one. GZ is a noisy place but we nevertheless enjoyed our little stroll there from the gate. SL TFTC

#7018. I flew over from New Zealand this morning to attend the Mega event next weekend. Between now and then there is a heap of caching to fit it. Hired a rental car and will have 2-3 days in Sydney before going over to Canberra. Out this way picking up some challenge caches but stopping to grab a few nearby traditionals. Took a few minutes to spot this one. I did look in the right spot initially but failed to notice it. After widening the search without success, I came back for a second look and this time I used my eyes. Signed and replaced the cache as found. Thanks contactpete for the cache. Little did I realise it at the time but this would be the end of finds for the day. The next three I attempted were all DNF's due to muggles, missing caches or incompetence.

I was able to find this cache during my sightseeing tour today.

Thank you for the cache
Team sissifalke

Found it! Took clothes peg and put monster stickie.

I found it in the end, after a bit of a search around GZ, thanks.

Certainly is the end of the road, any further and you would be on the motorway. Went for the most obvious hide first but then noticed something out of place and it was CIH. TFTC contactpete.

No spiders today. Just a cache at GZ. TFTC

At the end after the end. Bit spikey here . TFTC

OCW PelDroedGwin, Brewmaker & EverestHigh

Headed out west today to explore the reservoir area.

No spiders here for us today

5 Humongous spiders blocking all access to search. I may return with someone braver than I am.
