No response from owner. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

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 30 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

This one is gone gone gone...

Think this cache has definitely gone AWOL.

This cache has not been found for over a year, please check in on it

Seen a whole where I had feeling that the cache would be and the gps took me straight too. No luck, so the geokids and I had a good look around but found nothing. The owner may want to check up on this one.

Looked EVERYWHERE! Every hole, nook an cranny. Got up on the roof. No luck. Owner needs to check I think.

Had another look. Still not here. Owner needs to find a better hiding strategy or archive I think

TNLN Could not find any log. Jeff

Checked every 'hole' in the shelter, even got up a tree to have a look on the roof. Nothing but lizards sleeping in the little air holes. Possible that the creatures have pushed the cache totally inside the shelter itself. Oh well. I think the owner should check it out.

Another in the vast collection of DNF's in this area.

Even though this had a few DNF's logged, sentinel_maximus and I decided to give it a go anyways. after all, we had just finished lunch across the road. Sure we were looking in all the right places but no cache.

this was my second chop at this one with Captain Terror but still no find. we are sure that we look where it has to be but it seems that it is not there.

Searched the wall with Mrs Lat&Long but no cache for us today.

We too have to log a DNF for this one. We looked in all appropriate holes and nooks and crannies for well over 30 mins (with all passerbuyers giving us weird looks!). Found nothing unfortunately. Shame ... nice history lesson though. eatmorchikin & Stigglepot, Brisbane.

we searched every spot we thought met the clue and to no avail...sad for us....

Muggle leaning on the wall near GZ talking on mobile.After 15 mins I gave up .....Came back>>>> All clear ........spotted it .......Had to walk back to the geocamper to get caching kit extraction tools..... At last>>> SL TFTC

Pt. Douglas Trip 09.15. I thought I looked in lots of possible spots, bit it looks like I did not look hard enough . Thanks. Albida

Block can't get through the fences due maintenance repairs and workshop there.Please check it.Thanks

Quiet area on a Saturday morning. The building is partially fenced off for what looks like maintenance but the cache is safe. Great hide, blends in nicely. TFTC

found in the second spot I looked, sometimes you get lucky.

cache dry and in good condition.. tftc.

NOT entered into the book of LEDGIN'S. Up this way visiting a friend with Silky Seekers. Couldn't find this one today. Even had a quick peek on the "other" side.

GPS had us searching on the wrong part for awhile so we had to expand our search. Signed the log and continued on our way. Thanks!

Traveling south with TBF as we made the grab.

Up from Sydney for the week visting my mother. I had told her about this geocache about a year ago, and she would come to the shelter each times she was in town to try and find it.... she was determined to find it as her first cache.

After many unsuccessful visits for mum I went along to help while up there on a short holiday, after about 20 mins - and we were just about to give up I heard her yell "I found it!!". Great cache - very clever. TFTC!

visited this one whith Captain Terror, without much info only had coords not any notes. scratching our heads for a while. had to move on as it was getting late will try again next time in town

Went searching with sentinel_maximus and we didnt have any notes, and therefor no idea what exactly we were looking for, anyways didnt look for too long. will deff be back for a second hit at this one.

2nd attempt nice hide once you work out what you are looking for, and when you come equiped with the right tool [;O]. Replace the log book with a piece of paper as old one full. TFTC

Found it!

Some caches just come to hand; this one come to nose; and I confess gerrynewgirl gave me the tip - took a pair of tweezers. This has been one of those caches that kept popping into mind and nightmares, so I am finally glad that I can cross it off. Thanks for this great challenge and what a fine cache it is.

an old chook visited

Finally I get to cross this one off my DNF list, and all thanks to weroamin for reminding me of my inability to find it when talking with him on the phone tonight. Well mate, armed with a torch, everything looked clearer at 8pm. TFTC and the challenge it has been!

After looking here several times, I introduced a friend to Geocaching, and she found it. Finally!
A great hide.

Found at 1210. Very neat hide! The mandarines are just about ripe too!

FOUND by torourke1 @ 1130H 08/04/2008.

Took a bit more looking but finally found it, just couldn't let this one get away.

TFTC

liked it and the clue. verrrry niceeeee. tftc.tnln

Found after a couple of HOLE checks and running into a muggle who asked what we were doing, when we told her she laughed, This muggle was geowifes, Mother. Nice hide, TFTC

DNF by torourke @ 1230H 05/04/2008.

Sure I saw the HOLE, but nothing in there. Even lifted geobrat up for a closer look. Searched around whole area but nothing.

Found @ 16:40 - finally. After two previous abortive attempts that were closely observed by muggles.

In company with Ortaga this was found on the ground. Replaced where we thought it went.

The owner will have to check it out to ensure it's in the right place again.

TFTC

It beat me and the geomissus. THIS TIME !!
"I'll be back" [:(!]

Found it ... TNLN

A really great hide!! [^] Took a few minutes to find. Quiet Sunday afternoon few muggles around. Did not know there was a shelter from WW2 there, thank for the hunt.
SL TFTC.

My son and I looked everywhere for this one by torchlight but came away empty handed.
I was impressed with the stucture though.

Can't find this one. Been able to have two good looks with very few muggles around, and still no find.

Tried to find, too many HOLES in the hints, will try again on another date.

Well this was a 2nd try for this one, and still no luck. Maybe I keep looking at the same HOLE but the cache must be cleverly hidden. Well done cfn69. Maybe another day????

If there was one hour that could be considered rush hour here – we found it. Had to park some distance away, as the area was heavily populated with hockey players and their families and a long-distance coach full of people to boot! I spotted the cache quite quickly (yay!) but was unable to retrieve it for aaaaaaages. The muggles in the immediate vicinity finally departed, giving me a few seconds to do the deed. TFTC. =’.’=

As La Kedi said - very busy, but patience won out in the end. TFTC

A full on weekend raid on our own through Gympie, Maryborough, Burrum Heads, back down through Kin Kin and Noosaville collecting 62 caches along the way.

Nice easy find TNLN. Although one guy was looking at what we where doing and walked straight out in front of a bus which stopped in time. Mum said you should always wear clean undies in case you get hit by a bus, it must be true.

Yep determination won out. Found this one after a couple of goes. Love these Nannos.
TFTH
The Goons

After getting giddy going round the item in question we gave up temporarily. We have now read previous logs so will revisit this one and determination will win out.

walking in circles and ready to give up when Geomum spotted it! More like nano than micro!

Too hard for a novice geocacher. Will try again when more experienced and visiting area.

Found Ok

After poking and prodding and a call to confirm the area I finally prodded the right spot TFTC.

Found at 11.20am. An interesting location this one. A couple of circuits and checking various nooks and crannys eventually revealed something not quite right. Yes, another of those damn Maryborough containers. Signed and on my way. My 3rd for the big caching trip, 7 days and 3200+ km.
Cheers

Great bit of history in the middle of town. While in town take the time and have a walk around at some of the buildings from yesterday's era.

Number-827 , Day 2 of the weekends caching up north for me. I was joined by Powell Bruce and Liz and Bruce. A sneaky hide that I managed tofind with the others coming a noble 2nd. Thanks for the cache ,Cheers The Nanks

Saturday of the big caching weekend with David from THENANKS and powellbruce. We enjoyed this location especially after we had found the cache. Took us a while to find with all of us looking up and down and poking in holes etc. Eventually the little sucker was found. Then off for a loo break and a look at the steam train that was in the station. We also managed to score a free sausage at the sausage sizzle across the road that was promoting the Whitsunday islands. In all a good little stop. Thanks cfn69

Very interesting piece of history this one as you don't come across these too often. Plus they where about to take the Mary Ann out for a spin this morning
Found in the company of The Nanks and Liz and Bruce
TFTC

Great spot in the heart of M'
Just oozing history and a cache [:o]
Found on my third lap of the POI. The other POI was the two tilt trains sitting idly nearby. Great chance to have a close up sticky beak at them as well

Ah ha.... we had an idea of what we would be looking for but we weren't sure.... after making a lap, we saw nothing.... another lap and there it was.

Thanks to cfn69 for the cache.

clever ... unusual piece of history ... clever hide
took a couple of circles to put our hands on it.

Found this one on our way back from Hervey Bay to Brisbane today.

Very sneaky hide - well done! Interesting location, too. Took us a little while to track it down, the muggles didn't help, then had to wait another 10 minutes to replace it.

Thanks for the cache!

Managed to find on our second attempt - you have to see it to believe it. TFTC

We found the shelter - no worries. But the cache, now that was a different matter. We read all the clues, read the previous comments, but alas no cache. We really thought that we could sus this one out, but in the end we were getting too much attention. We ended up leaving with a 'sour' result.

what a great little hide,wher can we get these micro's
tftc

Coundn't find this one even after half an hour of looking. It was starting to get dark, so we decided to head for home and try again another day. Thanks.

Found @ 10:30 on our way back to Melbourne. TNLNSL TFTC

Three of us searched the obstacle in question for 30 minutes without locating the cache. We must be blind.

Found the cache at 2.20pm. That great one. Good challenge for us to found it. SL. Thank you for organise the cache and hunt.

A diabolical cache! One of those interesting "been past here a few times, never realised it was here" places. Despite the clues it took me 15 minutes of careful searching and patience to find this one. Where do you get these micros from???
Still, very satisfying to find. Thanks for another excellent cache.
Best wishes,
Wal

Found at 14:42 hrs. Had two goes at finding this one. Never knew this was there even though I have driven past many many times. Clever hide. Love your hides and caches.

TFTC. SL

I good micro cach.
Eldest found it.

Found it today.
Good hiding spot, could not believe the size of the cache. Never seen one like that before.
Logged our visit, took nothing.

FTF. Found at last. I was looking in the wrong place at first. Got scratched by the lemon tree. When I looked close at the wall I knew where to look. Good cache.
