Logs
This geocache appears to be MIA so to stop it clogging the search lists we'll archive it. This is done to keep the Geocaching Australia clean and up to date.
If the owner can confirm it is in place the listing can be resurrected by placing an "unarchived" log against it.

While Checking Childhood Swimming Spot i decided to come further up the road to have a look for this one again with a better GPS this time,
was standing at ZERO which was in the middle of nowhere, so i searched all around the cattle ramp and boards on the ground which were 10m from 0 but could not locate it. so Disappointed to say the least.

Took the 4x4 down over the washed part of the track to get to this one, on arriving at GZ I noticed there is a new fence been put up and that the area has been tidied up so maybe the cache has been removed, searched everywhere without climbing the fence into private property. Maybe needs to be visited by CO to confirm it’s exsitance.
A quick find once we reached GZ. Only one patch on the road required 4WD to get back out. Was a bit worried that the cache might have been washed away in the floods mid year but still in place safe and sound. TFTC
Hi Moeyy
The first day of a four day trip racking up 1535kms Starting at Huonville to Ulverstone (Night One); to Marrawah (Night 2); Arthur River back to Burnie (Night 3) and day four to Launceston and back to Huonville - a great trip!
This was the sixth cache of the trip. The Subi handled the trip to the cache with ease.
This one had been a bucket lister for a long time - always too far to walk but the 4WD Subaru made the task that much easier
Had tried to get to GZ once before but my little Toyota found the deep puddles and the ruts just too much at that time.
Much drier today - the road wasn't flooded as it was on my first effort!
Enjoyed the river
Took a little finding but ramped up the search and got a good result
Sainted the cache at 1750hrs.
TFTC and cheers

Good Thing I have a 4WD. This would have been fun in a 2WD. Quick find between jobs. Have to come back and explore around this area. TFTC

We left our car on the road just before it reached the river leaving a very short walk. Once near GZ a quick find was made. It was very pleasant down by the river this morning. TFTC
Easily to hand...replaced the ziploc. Good access to the river here and the start to some pretty extreme 4wd-ing. Many thanks FTC Moeyy...Cheers.

Easy find on a crisp winter's day. Track was wet but made it okay in 2wd ute. Geodogs enjoyed the experience *FTF* at 10 am. TFTC
