Hi Team KK's,
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.

Looked for a long ass time but then saw a family of baby snakes and didnt feel like waiting for mumma to get back
I should have came in from the end of Brokers Rd, but of cause I tried a harder way to the east! At GZ it took ages to realise that I needed to internalise it so I could corner the cache. Thanks.
An interesting walk to GZ. Coords were good, so it was a matter of making a systematic search till the cache was uncovered. TFTC Team KKs
Finally! This was my third attempt to date! I came by on my day off to hopefully try and put this one to bed once and for all. I searched high and low and after about 10 mins, the cache finally revealed itself to me. I guess I just wasn’t looking hard enough the last two times. Thanks for this clever hide!
Gee that took some effort but it should be flatter soon as geocaches distantly everything to find a little box just to put their name in it. Tftc tnln
With the phrase 'as you wish' running through my head at the height and slope of this hill, I bumblefooted my way gingerly to GZ and made the quick find.
Lovely spot to visit and definitely piqued the engineering interest hereabouts. Tftc!!

Looked for about 20 minutes with the geokid, no luck this time. Will definitely be returning for attempt #2 soon.
OCW the Bebes and Everest High. Took a bit of searching but the Bebes came up with the goods. Tftc
Found just when we were about to give up and go. Very sneaky. OCW The Bebes and PelDroedGwin. TFTC Team KK's

That took a while and I was surprised it wasn’t what I was expecting
I could hear the nearby chooks

2nd time back here, after 20 mins of searching and just about every crevice searched, we came up empty handed again
I first heard the word “geocache” very early 2009 but it took until 10th November to actually see my first cache when a friend stuck her head in a bush near our lunch venue. Took another three days before I was convinced to register my own account but ten years on, I’m more obsessed with the game than my friend and just had to mark the anniversary with a find today. This was my closest in the time I had, though not as easy as that first hide… at least not terrain-wise. Initially put off by a different type of geotrail left by those before me, precariously expanded the search (adding my own signs of slippage) when I finally spotted what has over the years become a familiar piece of camo. Signed log and home to plot a bigger day out for my official 10 year anniversary on Wednesday.
Took advantage of the day off by clearing out more of my 50km radius. I put a significant dint in the map, finding 26 caches in total! Thanks to all the Cache Owners for their caches.
It took a while to locate the well-hidden cache. Got there in the end. Thanks

That was an effort but worth it found with Paris1262 thanks for putting it here very clever and sneaky FP from me ️
Another DNF. Lots of residential garden waste has been tossed into this area. Being the 4th DNF in a row (excluding the backdating log), can the CO please check on their cache.
Backlogging from a few weeks back! Took a bit of searching and was tough on the hill but a good spot! tftc
No good for me today. Had a good look but a lot of garden waste from one of the houses has been thrown over GZ.
Cleared a bit but ran out of time to clear the lot so no smiley today.

No luck with this one a tree has fallen down and covered a lot of the wall, didn’t feel like getting bitten so gave up
Was in the suburb today so detoured up to this one. A short walk and arrived at GZ. Took a few minutes to spot- once I moved some shrubbery lying around I spotted it. Some nice reminicsing of my youth driving around these streets. TFTC!
Top cache! Thanks Team KKs. The coords are good. Pretty and wild spot. Be careful on the slope
Heading home from a meeting in Sydney today I detoured as I came down Ousley to grab this cache.
At GZ I started my search in earnest only to be startled by the owners who are just above GZ . They were very inquisitive and after a brief explanation and fib that I could find what i was looking for they left me alone long enough for me to add my name to the log.
By the the time they popped their head over the fence I was walking away and didnt engage them again.
Hope this one remains in place. Thanks

In the area this morning and had this one as the objective for today.
The number of ups and downs on the drive to near GZ had me prepared for some nimble footwork. Steady as she goes on the way to GZ. With the hint and good cords I couldn't help but find it straight away. TFTC Team KK's.

It's always good to see a new cache appear in the Illawarra! Somehow this place felt very familiar? Did I find a cache here before? I really can't remember,
