Thought I had already archived this one after the floods

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. If you require more time please be sure to post a note explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

No finds in over a year and several DNFs. Frustrating to get here and find THAT out. Please replace it or archive it.

No go for us either - thinks it could be gone

Had a bit of a look, couldnt find it, i'm going to say floods rather than my inablitly to find micros (which im actually striking against =P)

Looks like the council have been repairing the bridge abutments, I couldn't find the cache either. Looks like a lot of the barriers has been replaced during the works.

Another flood effected bridge and some heavy equipment around conducting the reparations - came up empty handed in our cache search as well. Thanks for bringing us here regardless Rescue-201

there were some very sweet big and little moo-moo's who greeted us.. the river that runs under the bridge is running wild due to the recent torrential rains

Log really wet, needs attention I think, although knowing this area, better wet than dry. TFTC

Easily found on an afternoons run chasing caches within the area. As previous log suggests, paper is soaked and cannot be written on Sadly, I had no extra paper with me to install. Will need to be replaced.

Found this one will need maintenance as was unable to log due to being very wet... Sorry did not have any spare logs on me this day... TFTC

Tftc, nice easy find, paper is a bit wet

Tftc found today with hinklenator

Quick easy find

We searched the wrong side of the bridge before reading the hint and then made a quick find. TFTH

Quick find on a quiet country road T4TC.

Thanks for this cache in a cool spot, and more important, thanks for the hint on cache page.

I seemed to have a little difficulty finding a good parking spot here - I tried a couple of spots, but decided they weren't really safe, before moving up the road 100m or so and walking back to the bridge. I remember having a little difficulty with the hide too - and spent a few minutes here befre I managed to nab it.

Thanks once more Rescue-201

Found at the Oz Mega Event with Team_Ninja and TeamGeoplesk.

good one dad

Found during the Mega Event in the company of Team_Ninja and Last of the Time Lords

I was needed to find this one as the other two incompetent noobs had no idea!

Thanks

Found with TeamGeoPlesk and Last of the Time Lords. Nice location, there was still a trickle of water in the creek after the recent rains. TNLNSL TFTC.

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Her Majesty on our trip to Wagga for the OZ Mega Event (Fantastic!!) The cache was easily found but the log was wet so we stayed and dried it out before moving on. Great spot by the creek. TFTC

The drought may have hit this area very hard when the cache was placed but today it was suffering the opposite effects of having too much water too quick. The cache was still high and dry, while searching you could feel the bridge vibrate as the logs crashed into it as they were being forced down the creek.
Thanks Rescue-201 for another enjoyable cache

Straight forward. Log was a bit damp as zip lock bag not closed properly. Nice and dry now. Nice spot

After some light rain the previous day or two this was a really lovely day for caching - not hot either. The cache was found easily and we moved along on our way home to Melbourne. Thanks for all your caches over the last few days and previously Rescue-201.

We couldn't park really close to this one and walked a little way to the hide noting that the creek was barely running.
Nice easy cache before tackling the nearby NP.
Thanks

Where to park? We found a little spot past the bridge and ran back to log it. The old building near by had a lot of charm and character to it. Shame the drought has hit so hard here, it's the same down our way.

Thanks,

The farmer on his motorbike didn't seem to concerned with our search at GZ as he rode past.
A pleasant location and the cache was found fairly quickly.
No swaps made.
Thanks Rescue-201

After a full lap of the bridge it turned up in the correct corner. Thanks.

I bounced into GZ to find a nicely hidden roadside cache here
The olde deserted house nearby is an interesting bit of residential architecture too

Found this on a beautiful winters day on our way to livingstone for a picnic lunch. Had lots of company with the local bike club running a race just up the road, but too much fun was happening up there to be interested or even notice us. Thanks for the cache.

51/131 @ 1245 on a Wagga (and districts) Geocaching Odyssey.

TFTC!

Big springs, little cache and not much water here today. Found with my quartet of caching buddies. Thanks

Found on the Wagga weekend with Hoojar1ARC, The Rats and Big Matt and Shell.

This place (or nearby) was heaps cool. Very interesting old buildings and spot here.

Found this cache with Hoojar1ARC, Steeba and The Rats on our Wagga invasion weekend. A nice quick find.

Thanks Rescue-201 for the cache.

A very pretty location. Still some autumn colours left in the leaves. Did not take too long to find. Thanks Rescue-201

clue too easy

Find 10/13 today.

Hmmm, where do I park?? Found a spot and ran back for a quick sign of the log before somebody passing stops and asks what I`m doing or if I need a hand.
Easy find, SL @ 1645 and off again.

Cheers

A nice place for a country drive. Nice easy find. Thank you.

A nice country road we know well.After a few minutes we spotted the micro.Thanks to Rescue-201.

Nice easy find as being magnetic helped narrow the search. Have driven past this area many times but this is the first time that I have stopped. TFTH TFTC.

Found at 0600. Pretty straight forward find. Nice springs.

Found by baby&Mrs gopher at 1600 SL Tnx Rescue-201

A quick stop for another find for the Boys, easy micro and we were on our way! Cache #15, Boys going hard!
Thanx for another cache, Micros we love em!

No water today, but nicely green. TFTC.

Found by Mary & David at 1650. More beautiful countryside, which looked perfect in the late afternoon autumn rays. TNLN. Our thanks to Rescue-201 yet again.

I had to make 2 visits as there were a crowd of cyclists on a club race and a helper car right at the spot on the first visit. Lucky there was another cache nearby to fill in the time. No trouble on the 2nd attempt.

Found at 1600. FTF Yipee.
The handbrake had seen a sign, so she says, a few days earlier [advertising the water company] on the wagga to mangoplah road so off we went in that direction. Travelled for ages up and down country dirt lanes until we approched GZ from what I considered the opposite direction. Oh well got to see lots of back roads around Wagga and also tore the plastic cover from under the fourby when we hit a ditch with water in it. Strange to see a ditch full with water these days.
Thanks Rescue 201, you nearly got me.
