There doesn't appear to have been a cache here for more than six months now, and it hasn't been temporarily disabled. Is there an update on the status of this cache?
 
06-Mar-09
Urgent attention to stop wasting cachers time.
 
06-Mar-09
I noticed that this cache has been unavailable for a period of time well in excess of the period of "a few weeks" as suggested by the cache guidelines published on Geocaching.com.

If you plan on replacing this cache, please log a note to the cache (not email) so I don't archive the listing for non-communication.

We too went to this spot. Surprised this last so long, since gz is in full view of the many houses.
Disable this or archive if not there?
 
19-Dec-08
And reading the last log now I know why. It should be changed to Temporarily Unavailable until it is ready again.

I dont think I parked in the 'best spot for this one. I had a choice of which side of the creek to take and of course I chose the wrong side. By now I was getting used to scampering through the bush.

A quick find.

ps The things you see while out caching. On the walk back to the car I saw a 3 piece Hills Swing set in the creek and a red snapper in a plastic bag on the track.

Cold and damp. That applies to the weather, and the cache. At least the weather wasn't mouldy.

On the up side, just up the road is an incredible old house. Loved the windows on it.

[After a 2 year break from caching, this morning was the morning for it all to start again! Found this one at 9:45am. After spending some time looking in the wrong location,] i.e. the wrong altitude [I finally took the easier option. Judging by the foot prints in the area, I think I'm not alone in looking in the wrong spots! TNTLSL. Thanks!]
 
07-Apr-08
Easy find, watch out for muggles
 
30-Mar-08

Found with Team Spanner. Been meaning to do some suburban caches and finally got around to it. TNLN.

Thanks Tansabell.
 
02-Mar-08
All was serene here once the local resident finished sweeping the street! Then it was easy. The log book is still damp so I heve left it out of the plastic bag because the rest of the cache is dry and that may help it. Took the coffee, left a float. Thanks Tansabell.
 
18-Feb-08
Hot dry day, dry creek, wet log book though[?] figure that one out.
took jota badge, left scout badge.

Easy find just a ride from home. Didn't sign log as forgot to take a pen and pen in cache didn't work. Log also very damp. Took tb Motz-Pocket. Thanks Tansabell
 
03-Feb-08
Any easy find if you are on the right side of the creek to start with. Yep we got it wrong and had to drive round to the other side.
Took look mum - no paper geocoin
(No trees were hurt to find this cache).

Found by one junior Stinjali member with his Oma who lives just around the corner. TNLNSL. Thanks Tansabel
 
11-Jan-08
Nice easy find on the banks of a creek that looks like it has the capacity to carry a LOT of water. Not too much of that about today, though Wink. TNLN. Cheers Big Grin

Everlasting is so happy because she found two TBs in one box!
 
09-Jan-08
Three of us enjoyed drive the car for the day. Thanks for organising the cache and hunt.
 
06-Jan-08
The right side first time, now that is rare Smile
A quick find.
Thanks, Robmc.
 
06-Jan-08
We were lucky to have approached this one from the correct side and it was a fairly easy find. I suppose this little bit of farmland close to suburbia would qualify as urban or suburban serenity.
Thanks indeed
 
03-Jan-08

Whoops dropped the wrong bug.
 
08-Dec-07
Our closest driveby today. We got to within 50m. The log book is still damp. We left it out of the bag as it was sweating in there. Lovely location. Interesting neighbours. Thanks for the cache guys.

Caching in the Pajero. Luxury. Luckily it had power windows, as this minimized the effort even more for this one. Big Grin. Log book still a bit damp so we left it out of the snap lock to help it dry.
Clear skies and thanx for the cache Tansabell. - TeamAstro.

I did manage to sign log book and I empty some water out too

Thanks Tansabell
 
02-Nov-07
Could hardly sign the log book as it was soaking wet.

Tipped the water out the cache container, but still very saturated.

Please rectify
 
02-Nov-07
Easy find once I worked my way though all the back roads.

Quite an easy find once I found the correct approach. Had the place to myself and TNLN thanks.
 
29-Sep-07
Well we found it, but two of us wne to the wrong tree, "that must be it exclaimed the friend who I let borrow the GPS for this cache (he's new to the hobby and I want to encourage him) so I dutifully followed him down the MUDDY WET slope (my bad) meanwhile our otherfriend stays up top not wanting to get dirty, and guess who found it! Not us who were muddy!
Took: beer bottle opener
Left: mini torch

The container is a bit cracked and the log zip lock bag has a hole in it too, sorry we didn't have a new one with us, tiped out rainwater and tried to rehide in same spot and cover up with stuff that will keep it dry

Published at 21:33, found at 21:45, home at 21:58. FTF secured in near record time

After a couple of quiet pints at the local, along with dinner, an early night to bed was in order. the only thing that stopped me was an e-mail as i opened the laptop, saying that a new cache was only 3.4kms from home, published only seconds earlier

Once parked, it was only a short 15m stroll, to a point that left me between 2 tree's in the dark. with the wave of the torch, a piece of blue was spotted, and the deed done

Grabbed the TB, and quietly (well maybe not so, as the exhaust on the lancer probably woke everyone up in the neighbourhood) made my way home to a nice warm bed

Forgot to mention, if doing in the dark watch out for the puddles of mud
