Hi Secretsquirrelzn,

It has been a while since I first looked at this cache. I can't find any recent responses about maintaining this cache so it will be archived and removed from the active cache listings.

When you have repaired this cache, drop me a line and I can review it again for listing on the geocaching.com site.

If you decide not to continue on with this particular cache, please remove any remaining cache bits from the area.

Thanks for your understanding

***** REVIEWER NOTE *****

Hi secretsquirrelnz

It appears that this cache has been inactive for quite some time. Is it going to be replaced or should it be archived to make room for possible future caches? If the cache owner does not contact me by 21 October, I'll assume the cache needs to be archived.

While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever. Please either repair/replace this cache, or archive it so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location. Also, if you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks for your understanding,

Regards,

A very disappointing DNF after the walk in from the road and about 45 minutes of searching. The clue seems fairly obvious but did not turn up anything.

Have driven past this spot many times & didn't realize there was a track on this side of the road. The toilet at tthe beginning of the track was a welcome sight! TFTC

This is a fascinating area- almost eerie with the stories it holds. Well worth the round walk.
Took fart bomb(since deployed by the kids), and left screwdriver.

3rd and best decent walk of the day. Did the full loop in 35minutes. The old legs are starting to stiffen up a bit now. THe Birdlife in here was amazing, Tuis, fantails and bellbirds everywhere. Most enjoyable.

Done this walk a few times before with the dog, nice walk, very quiet, last time we did it in summer and the bird life was prolific, when making it back to the carpark we came across Secret Squirrel himself.

Another cold grey day but the rain held off, took the left track, looked quicker. Track was good but wet and very slippery in fallen leaves with footprints and lots of skid marks, so we were surprised to find we could claim another FTF.Big Grin Some very interesting history at this place. Cache was an easy find and we used ferns to disguise it again. Out: light-key ring In: yellow shoe laces.
Had a good look around before returning, just made it before the rain came!

Thanks for the adventure.
