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.

Not having much luck today. 3 DNF’s in a row! Quite certain this one is no longer here looking for previous logs. (Previous finder could not find also a few days ago.)
Had the previous finder with me but that didn't help in the end . No joy for me today .
Both the gps and phone were causing problems. After a bit of searching spotted cache. Took Nothing Left nothing sl
Doing a bit of caching in and around Macksville with ilook4geo. This one had us searching for a bit until we ignored the GPS and trusted instinct. Log was signed and all was put back as it had been found. Thanks go to Nudge74 for placing this cache.
Having a caching day with goingplaces2. Each found log was signed and replaced. Enjoyed the day. TFTC.
On an evening stroll with the geo wife before a drink at the star hotel.
Happy days

Found on our Covid-delayed winter northern escape trip.
Many good safe hides and not many muggles around today.
Cache condition is OK/good.
Thanks for the cache Nudge74,

Yesterday I departed Brisbane on my way south to spend Christmas with some relatives in Vincentia, NSW. I had allowed myself a few days of relaxed travel, which gave me plenty of time to do some caching along the way. Having camped in my car in Coffs Harbour overnight, I was up at daybreak to continue the journey south, pausing for a stop at this cache.
Found the cache after a short search and replaced as found. The magnet is no longer attached so it is wedged in place. TFCT

This one took forever and we eventually found it on the ground. The magnet was missing so we wedged it back behind a downpipe until the CO can check it.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Tiding things up and finally getting around to logging my DNFs
No find for us here today

What a glorious sunny day for some Caching. We stopped in Macksville for some lunch and thought we would find a few more in the township, before heading for home.
After a short search at GZ, cache was in hand. Many thanks for bringing us here. TNLNSL TFTC

This one took us much longer than it ought to have. Geodad made the find after about 10 minutes of looking. TFTC!

Quick stop while passing through.
Didn't have a pen to log.
If someone could be kind enough to write Jag3 on the 30/1 We would be greatful

A big day of caching while being based at Stuarts Point. We had a great day out and it was wonderful to find this cache. Thankyou Nudge74 for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area
Quick find and sign on the way out of town.

Find 6258 logged from c:geo.

Even with the hint this one took awhile to find. Lucky the weather is too hot for muggles so had time to search. TFTC
The general location of GZ was easy to find, the cache itself was much harder. I looked in a lot of places but kept coming back to the same place, and eventually realised I was looking at the cache, very well hidden and not easy to retrieve. I had some apprehension about looking up here at all, most water tanks this large are surrounded by fences in the city for security reasons and video monitored, and there are a lot of items here that I did not want to go near. Anyway, thanks Nudge74 for the challenge and a great hide.
Found at 3:10 PM GAFF 1.
Thanks to the good description - the cache was found after a few minutes of fine tuning the GPSr. It took a few minutes to get a good signal between the towers.
Thanks Nudge74.
Feedback: I just now had a peek at the hint and I don't think it is accurate.

Once we read the hint it was an easy find but up till then our GPS's were bouncing us everywhere. Signed as JAD. TFTC
Well, we spent a little extra time here as we were becoming intimate with many items that could service as a hide for the cache. I don't know why it took us as long as it did, but there you are. It was well hidden and difficult to spot, especially when you are spending time searching other items, lol.
Thanks for placing it Nudge74. Once found we gladly signed the log Team JAD and replaced as found.
Cheers!

Caching with DiamonJs and Aussie Liahona and signing the logs as Team JAD. We certainly got to know these towers very well - our GPSs we sending us in all directions. Took a while but finally found. Thanks Nudge74.
Stuarts Point Day2
Today's main event was lunch at the Buffalo farm, but still plenty of time to do some caching around Macksville before the event.

Caching around the area with Tatt2squared, Key_Tat, Littlemisslonglegs, Littlemissleft and Gazkersh...TFTC
Found with littlemissleft and littlemisslonglegs and in the company of Tatt2squared and key_tat and viper_101
Thanks for the cache
Thanks for the cache
Found with Key_Tat, Viper_101, Littlemisslonglegs, Littlemissleft and Gazkersh... a little bit of a walk and found fairly easy in the end... getting it out proved a little harder... but the cache was soon in hand. TFTC.
After a fruitless search in the dark last night, found this morning. Yes the magnetic strip has come off. Have replaced with better magnet and tucked it back in.
Found this one with Gazkersh, littlemisslonglegs, Tatt2squared, Key_Tat and Viper_101. Sneaky hide in a tight spot! TFTC
.found today after message from CO. Magpiecottage has reglued the magnet in place so all good now. Thanks for cache.
No smiley. Here, just lots of sticky, strong spider webs and an eight legged cache guardian watching me from behind a fuse box
Cheryl found this one while we were in town with our favourite granddaughter. I managed to park the geomobile in a grassed area just off the road beside the neighbouring centre. I've driven past these towers lots of times but they seem so huge when you're right underneath them.
We hadn't planned on finding these latest caches but we have our favourite little granddaughter with us and she can't resist the ice cream shop beside the river, so we decided to find what we could.
Thanks for the cache Nudge

We found the magnet on the ground so the container may need checking. We had nothing that we could fix it with as our main caching bag was at home.
Massive big towers. interesting spot.A beautiful day on the midnorth coast, perfect for caching. 3169 12:42:00 PM Nudge74 without cachers like you we would have no game. Thank you. TNLN SL
Another one that took a little longer than it should have. With so many likely hiding places and a jumpy GPS - no doubt interference from the towers we eventually spotted the cache. Thanks Nudge
Another cool cache placed by my fiancé xxx pity I wasn't FTF - you would think he would tell me when they became live! TFTC babe

We had downloaded all our data we needed for our caching in the Scotts Head area before we left Wauchope near Port Macquarie. Or we though we had!
A chance look again online in our preparations before moving north gain spotted 2 new caches in Macksville we had not seen before. Then Mrs SKI spotted a further one again. A quick check revealed that unbelievably they had not yet been found despite being out for a few days.
So with data loaded and our needed shopping expedition brought forward we headed out this morning for the search.
This was our first and as we approached from different directions it was Mr SKI that spotted the cache. We have been caught before, so we opened the log in anticipation before celebrating and discovered a clean sheet!
It is possibly a couple of years since we registered a FTF so it was great to get one.
Thank you for the new cache and the hunt.
Celebrations tonight!
