One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am 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 page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

No CO response in 4 months & cache hasn't been found for 12 months. Needs archiving!

We searched for a long time on this one today. After a while we read the notes and concur with others.

Gave up after not too long due to mini-cacher getting bitten by mozzies.

Hmmm. So obviously this one needs some maintenance.

CO has not responded to request to attend to this cache. It's been well over six months since last find with seven DNFs during that time.

Nope. It's either gone or coords are wrong.

We were determined to find this one and searched for 'ages'. Alas we had no luck.
For only 1.5 star D/T rating we are thinking it isn't there any longer.

Couldn't decide on an area to look, so we decided to call it quits after being bitten by about a million mosquito's. Seems there have been a few DNF's recently too.

We had a good look around here today while finding a nearby cache. Unfortunately couldn't find the cache.

No luck today. Spent over 45 minutes searching a reasonably wide perimeter around GZ. CO needs to check it out.

Found what I am certain is the cache spot... Have a feeling this one has been muggled

Didn't find it today despite spending quite a while looking for it. Saw a few spots that looked cache-worthy but unfortunately no luck today. Will be back again to have another look.

Nice quick find

Down for the day with kestal's to pop into an event and then hit a power trail. We made the quick find, but there were no tbs in cache. Tftc

Out and about with angloj on a beautiful winters day. We took the long way home to grab a few more caches. We drove up the road towards the reserve only to meet another coming the other way....definitely not enough room for two passing cars! Pulling the car we jumped out and walked down the track until the numbers stopped going down. As we headed in we thought we spotted the likely hide but no such luck but after a brief search we had the cache in hand and we were able to sign the log. TFTC robynk

Found , great hide thanks, needs a new pencil took stretchy man left dinosaur.

The image said it all but I added mine too!
Lovely QLDer on the land. Great that they kept it! .
Good hide!

Lovely out of the way spot. Quick walk and cache found in good condition. TFTC.

Out for a country drive sans jaunty cap and on a secret mission.

This was an easy find with the hint and, I guess, limited places to hide a cache

Lovely wetlands if very dry today. I enjoyed walking through this isolated reserve. The vegetation is quite unique. Pretty sure I'll drop in here when next out this way.

Sorry couldn't see any trackables here

TFTC robynk

!!!!tftc!!!!!!!! found after my phone went flat signed wrong date opps.

Nice drive out to this area and being early in the morning no muggles around. Cache was exposed but is now as per the hint after some lite maintenance. Cache is still as per the co- ordinates. TFTC SL and dropped off TB Steve.

Lovely spot Nice quick find TFTC

Nice easy find. Will take the trackable and transfer it to another cache.

Quick drop in. Unable to get the second in the area due to other people

Found it - lost signal a few times. Be we eventually got there. Pencil needs sharpening - recommended you bring your own writing tool.
Thanks.

Found but no pen to sign log

Found it

Nice hide in a beautiful reserve. Found with kcsfinch. TFTC

Beautiful tee tree forrest. Found on a walk with caz17.

Log book still in bag but was a bit wet. Can still sign ok. TFTC. Interesting area

Thanks for bringing us to this beautifully eerie reserve.

Nice easy search in the bush land, absolutely beautiful area, thank you for bringing me here!

This cache was my second today after finding the close cache, however had to rest between the two in the information board area as a large storm came through as I was at the first cache and I had to run back to shelter as I was getting very wet. Found at 3pm before driving to the airport for a return flight home tonight and was surprised to find the Hippo TB here, so I think he needs a trip south.. TFTC robynk, I saw that yours was the first cache in this peaceful nature trail area. I did not even know this was here, and I really did enjoy the quiet walking after a busy week.

Thanks for the Cache dropped off TB Hippo. Thanks for bringing us here TFTC

Quick easy find while out caching with the geokids 8 from 8 so far for the day

A walk down a trail and then a little way in. I had the phone to guide me but it wasn't playing ball today. However, Hiltonclan, said look over to this little pile [:0] TFTC

Found with oberlong!

Found with katieeb.
I never knew this little place was here! Fairly easy to find but a little challenge.

Chasing down a couple of caches in this neat little reserve. Approached GZ and soon spotted a likely spot. Bingo! As I was leaving I sat on some seats along the boardwalk to have a rest and enjoy the surroundings. I had been there 5 to 10 minutes when suddenly I realised there was a family of kangaroos sitting nearby (within 10 metres) watching me closely. What a great experience to see nature close up. I moved off after a while and they continued grooming themselves as if I didn't exist. Wonderful. Thanks robynk

Yes I agree with Aussie Liahona that this was a very pleasant nature area we visited today. Loved our drive through the country we travelled today. Thankfully it's after the rains and the roads were clear.

Wow! What a nice place this is. And, the added bonus of a couple of caches. We took a walk along the path and then a little detour and we had ourselves an approximate GZ. Tried a number of areas that the clue applied to and didn't find what we were looking for. Then, something caught my eye, and we had ourselves a cache. Inside the container was a bit damp but the log book was dry. We signed and rehid the cache as we found it. Thanks robynk for bringing us here.

GPS led us straight to GZ

nice sturdy container

TFTC

What an awesome spot! Will definetly be back here! TFTC. Took horse figurine.

Nice walk through the nature reserve. Found the cache and SL and TFTC.

Absolutely loved this reserve so a massive thank you for bringing me here... Also enjoyed the cache name. Contents looked in good nick and the cache looked nice and safe so i left a TB to continue its travels and hopefully entice even more visitors out to this lovely little part of our diverse country. Also, my son loved the huge grey kangaroos that seemed to be at every turn (as did I!). TFTC and the experience

TFTC out with geofreckles

TFTC took geoman's father (aka bedderseagle) with us for his first cache - he is taking TB on his journeys

great spot tftc

TFTC dropped of koala tag

On the home straight after a day out in the rain with Brother Colin and IolantheK. A quick loop around and GZ was in sight. IolantheK pounced as Brother Colin missed it at first ;-D

Out and about with Brother Colin and teamdfl, on a rainy day.

Loved the name of this cache. We had an easy walk through the park, and the find was easy, too. All in good condition. TFTC, robynk.

A wet day out caching with IolantheK and teamdfl.
A bit of a wet walk around this place this afternoon. I had a dose of cache blindness and went right past this one.
Thanks for the cache, all dry inside.

On my way to conference picked this one up. TFT. Great cache.

Found while out and about on Australia Day. TFTC.

Found safe and dry. Nice easy find TFTC SL

Nice place. Will have to go back again to find the other one.

Nice cache. My 4 yr old daughter loved finding it.

Pleasant walk in a fantastic area! TFTC!!

Hint about 'in hollow log' slightly misleading.
As I had left all my info at home and had to rely Mr. Garmin to guide me, I was in no position to be misled. Just looked for something that didn't look quite right, and "presto" there it was. TNLN

After just completing Charlie D I wasn't too keen on doing any more hikes so I decided a nice pleasant walk was what I needed It was a nice walk on the boardwalk and after a quick search the container was located. I grabbed the coin and I will move it on shortly. Thanks robynk

Nice area for a cache. TFTC

Relogging this under individual account, previously a member of Gaz'n'Kab account.

Just thought I'd drop a teachable off whilst I was visiting my grandmas cache nearby.

Previously logged under a team account. Re-logging with my individual account.

Along with the group today. You better believe it is most efficient passing the log anti-clockwise. TFTC.

Easy find on the way home from Charlie D. This is quite a nice area. Might come back another day for a proper look with Goldielover. TFTC

a nice walk to this one then at gz captain terror was standing on it when dosshell exclaimed "are you blind!! You're standing on it!!"

The log quickly signed (anti-clockwise)

Thanks robynk

A nice easy find after a great morning doing the Charlie D Trek

Found the cache easily and quickly added our names to the list

Off to the other new cache in this remarkable reserve [^]

TFTC robynk

Gaz'n'Kab

After a short drive and a short walk this one was next on the list. We took the track within a few metres fo the cache then headed in. It reasonbly easy to spot but well hidden. The log was quickly signed as it was passed around anti-clockwise which i am told is much more efficient cheers to robynk for this one.

Tftc. GeoMummy, GeoBaby, GeoPoppy & GeoGrandma had a great bush walk. Thanks for showing us a great track

Found in the company of Amelia and Co. (Amelia, geomummy, and geopoppy) ...... we all enjoyed the walk as it neared sunset ...... added some swag to the stash


TFTC ...[^]...robynk

GPS and country roads are not a good mix, this road will get us there, woops no. OK, this one then, no lets try a different approach yep this is it T 1 x TB LN TFTC

Amazing, live so close and didnt know this reserve was here.
Dropped o the Monkey TB
TFTC

What a great place for a break, we would have just kept driving past if we weren't geocaching Cache was found safe and dry. Thanks.

On my way home with Alkzura from the Christmas in July event in Stanthorpe. Our ap and Tom Tom maps were a bit confused, but still got us to where we needed to turn into the GZ. A hidden spot with very little fanfare, but just lovely once you get in there. Found the cache with no problems, especially since there is a well worn geotrail to it. Hope that doesn't cause any problems in the future. TFTC

These are the sort of places you wouldn't know existed with the cache being in the location. We were a little confused at the entrance, however soon noticed we were definately in the correct spot.
GZ was found after a lovely walk down the provided path. Enjoyed the walk and the information provided along the way.
Cache was found without problem.

This was my 450th cache.

TFTC.

We had the reserve to ourselves today. Took a nice stroll along the boardwalk and found a cache along the way. Thanks robynk

A lot of work has been put into this. Very wierd area I think for it though. I just hope that the local area realise what a treat they have here. Thank you for showing us.

Found today with Dannza on our trip to Toowoomba. Enjoyed the walk and the hunt. TNLN TFTC

What a beautiful area and a nice place for a walk...

Found cache without too much drama!

No sign of Travel Bug though!

TFTC

Finally logging my road trip finds. This is a really great cache location. Did each circuit and even learned a few new things courtesy of the information board. TFTH

Haven't started writing logs for this trip yet but am trying to keep the trackables in their correct places so this is just a TB drop for now

Found as team SaintsMadHouse, and now that I am an adult, I have my own account and will log with this.TFTC. Found by Geohubby with kids while on holiday. Geowife placed in wrong TB. EMBEM TB is currently not in Cache. Winnny Poo TB was placed in by mistake.

It was almost sundown when we arrived but we decided that we had enoght daylight to track it down.

Luckily it was a simple find. An interesting spot. I wonder who lobbied to get the funding for the infrastructures?

The don't seem to get the use they deserve.

Found it No. 2704 ... easy find ... TN and left Chinese Coins

Found at 1030Hrs. We arrived at GZ to find an Ipswich council worker doing a plant survey nearby. So we had a chat to her and found out some interesting things about the vegetation and some other local spots worth visiting. Then back to the car for a cuppa and a bit of wait for her to move on before the find. This area certainly has a very different environment. TNLN.
Thanks robynk.

Think I came in on the wrong route on this one.. TFTC!

What an interesting little area this is. Good to see it preserved. TNLNSL TFTC.

Very nice little walk around the area. Cache was easy to find. The swamp that is the area did not have any water in it considering all the rain that we have had over the last couple of weeks. Cache is still nice and dry.
TNLN TFTC

Found by Mrs Temingi. Then back to the camper for lunch after a mornings caching. TNLN TFTC

I started caching with StormyKnights. My sister and I have decided to make up our own profiles so we can see who has found each cache
May the Geo-contest begin [B)]

Thanks for the Cache


(This log entry has been added retrospectively)

Hi, I’m “stellbell 67†and I have been caching as a member of StormyKnights. My brother and I have decided to create our own log-in to reflect accurately how many caches each of us have found (not that we are competitive – hardly!)....

Therefore this entry has been added retrospectively.

TFTC!

What a lovely place to visit. I would never have known it existed if it weren't for Geocaching!
Even though I was expecting the rubber spider, it still caused me to throw the cache, my pen, and my GPSr when I opened it. Some rather un-repeatable words also echoed around the otherwise peaceful surrounds. Geo-Kids laughed for a full ten minutes....
Temptation was too great for Geo-Son, who swapped the spider for some tattoos.

Also grabbed 'Antoine Travel Express Geocoin' to move along.

TFTC. SL.

NICE PLACE THANKS

Pat Ox found cache but fright of big spider.. she hate it.. No good for old ages might heart attack.. better take spider out of cache pls...

Well made up cache, took alittle to find but got there in the end. Left a badge, TFTC
