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.

[blue]I notice from one or more recent log entries that this cache [u]appears[/u] to be in need of owner intervention. Therefore, I am temporarily disabling it so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Prompt attention by cache owners to any log that indicates anything could be amiss is greatly appreciated by all seekers. The guideline advises; "if you can't fix it straight away then "Disable" it till you can."

Please respond to this situation by 30th November to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness. If you require more time, please be sure to post a "Write Note" log (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

Looked and crawled under 30m of stairs but no sign of it. Next person if it is a dnf should consider a needs archived which is a shame as it is a beautiful spot.

Is it still there.

Like Day1976 before me, I spent about 30 minutes searching for this one but coming up empty handed and in the process, slipping on one of the slimy boards on the boardwalk and falling off altogether. I am not sure it is missing, but I could not find it.

Nope, couldn't spot it. Got in touch with C@H for some hints which still lead to naught. Spent thirty minutes looking in all sorts of places but I could have done with having my torch with me. May be still there, but it must be well hidden.

After a bit of stuffing around, we came across the log entry from "C@H" (29/6/2012) which lead us to the cache. Had to carefully remove the resident caterpillar from the container but then all was good. TFTC.

Found with skymija trees was playing havoc with GPS easy find after reading log found 15/11/12 Took badge Left Mable TFTC

Found on annual Bruce family camping trip with nazzcar86. Cloud cover and tree's must have been playing havoc with GPS signal as cache was found 21 metres from coordinates. Using clues from posts found beneath our feet.

Well this one is so close to home
and it has been missing for so long

nice to get this one off the list

thanks c@h

tftc

Found this one in the likely spot even though we were sure we had look there all ready hint works well thanks for c@h for replacing and landsergruppe for putting one her in the first place a nice short circuit walk lucky for us saw a Goanna climbing a tree on the way found with sksjd

Planning a trip up this area I could see there where a few more disabled icons than last time. By the logs this one seemed like it might be missing. I contacted the owner for some more clear clues and permission to replace if it could not be located. I came equipped with gloves and a pocking pole with the plan to give it a good once over and make sure it was not here. I was here at around 9 and I had the place to myself allowing me to go over and under everything looking for the cache. After an extensive search of the likely hide and then a few more less likely but worth the shot I conceded defeat and pulled out the replacement cache a 400ml sistema, Stashnote,Pencil and some small swag. Cache is now tucked up in the framework of the boardwalk still within the same location. I let the garmin montana average for ten minutes. Don't know if it will be any better given the tree cover but the coords I used tried to take me into the bush at the wrong point. TFTC

Found some likely spots but no cache...

Oh deer, there's a foxy wombat was transferred from Trunksergruppe to user Landsergruppe

Had a good look Gps was very stable, taking into account that co-ords are noted in previos logs as being a bit off.....
We had a good look clue and description seem to make very little sense.....but looking at a particular spot it all fits but still not there...
Extended our search but still no luck.......
I think that this one needs to be checked....
Lovely little walk anyway.....

Oh deer, there's a foxy wombat was transferred from gmthirteen to user Trunksergruppe

3up and I had a good look for some time here , but the description and clue made no sense - thanks anyway

Try as we may - and we really did try - Mrs Biggles and I were unable to locate the soddin' thing! We spent a considerable amount of time scrounging for this one and just couldn't come up with the goods which annoyed me no end since I'm really pig-headed and hate giving up. In the end we just had to admit defeat. The description/hint/logs and GPS all conspired to disagree with each other so we ended up shelving this one for a later date and moved onto "McVeigh's Water Wheel" cache.

We'll watch the logs and if someone else manages to find it then we'll be back - count on it!

The treasure has been found! Nice spot, what a pity, that some people are such a pigs. (even more rubbish)

A nice walk to gz where the gps was understandably all over the place so the hint was referred to. No result in the first couple of places but the third looked promising and came good. Thanks gmthirteen - a good spot for a cache on a lovely day.

We were both relieved to find an easy access point here as we were fearing a bush bash or hill when we read the terrain rating. Having read the previous logs we were a little worried about how long we might be here, but a good clue and a little bit of thinking brought us our prize.

Rabbitto and I continued the walk for the full loop and managed to avoid running into other people we heard on the track.

Thanks for showing us this beautiful spot. I added an extra set of coords incase they're of use to someone.

I found our 1st Gmthirteen cache at 10:00am as the 3rd of 16 on our Tour de Warburton XIV in company of Team Rubik. After thinking that we would need to find another entry point, we were surprised and delighted to find that we could park fairly close by. In terrain like this we went staight for the hint and a liberal dose of other logs. There looked like there was going to be quite a number of places that might fit all the descriptions. I started at the beginning but cache magnet Rubik went virtually straight to the right spot. We completed the loop on the way back to the car. Thanks for the cache from D B-A.

There was lovely bushland in here, and some huge old trees, which were very much appreciated. We had a little trouble zeroing in on the cache location, but it didn't take too long as there were three teams searching. The cache was found by Ian & Penny. Picked up a few leeches during our search, as it was very damp in there today. Got rid of them pretty quickly! Thanks for the cache.

Found at 3.05pm GAFF5 in the company of Squalid and Ian & Penny.
We were once again apprehensive during our approach to this cache as we thought we were going to be in for a huge walk up steep grades through thick bush - considering the 3.0 terrain rating. However after a short walk on a flat boardwalk and then an extensive search of all the places where the cache wasn't we finally widened our search and found the cache 31 metres away. Weird readings today maybe?
Thanks gmthirteen for bringing us back here.

7th find of the day and 2015th total find

We have joined Pprass and Squalid for a geocaching weekend. We spent quite some time looking for this one, and in the end we did locate it - some 30 metres from where the published co-ordinates say it should be. It's so far off that we had to resort to reading the hint.

Took: Nothing
Left: Screwdriver
Thanks gmthirteen for the cache.
Ian and Penny

We didn't see any foxy wombats herre today. We saw one a bit later, I reckon he was sunning his tummy, but Chewin had a bit darker an interpretation (just because he wasn't moving much!).
It was a nice walk around the boardwalk. I happened to put a foot down where there was not chicken wire, and discovered just how good it really is!
A quick find with tha aid of the clue (we had GPS troubles earlier in less wooded areas)
Thanks, Robmc.

After a pleasant stroll along a very slippery boardwalk, (stay on the chicken wire), we found the cache fairly quickly with the aid of the clue. Robmc found it first by applying the clue to one location while I applied it to another, wrongly. Lovely spot around here.
Thanks gmthirteen

As mentioned by most other people the clue is neccessary, the co-ords are well off! I went looking and got covered in the creepy crawly leeches but to no avail... no find but then Mrs GP thought i wonder... wandered off and found it. Nice spot for a cache while staying near-by at the park. Thanks

Rated: for Overall Experience

Found at 1615 hours, This is my 350th cache, now check this out I met the owner of this cache yesterday, when I met up with Rigger64 to give him a new geocoin. Had a pleasant stroll to GZ, searched around for a bit, then read previous logs, searching in the wrong area, moved further up the hill and found the cache. Thanks to the previous finders, this could have been a DNF.
Took Canadian Geocoin which I have just noticed that I have had this one before. Left Mighty Micro-CaughtRedHanded 02 Geocoin.

Oh my goodness, I think its about time I loged this casche. Sorry for the delay. Found with Muzza and Alansan. Many thanks for the cache. 13th for the day. I loved this area, not sure if it may have been affected by the fires. But will love to come back.

We initially tried the approach from the wrong bridge, but once we worked out where to go, getting to GZ was easy. However, our three GPSs had no idea of where the cache was due to all the tree cover. We resorted to the clue, but after a few minutes, we were no better off. However, something in one of the previous logs alerted us to our problem and the cache was soon in hand. I grabbed the microcoin.

Thanks for the cache, and for introducing us to this great part of the world. Kiwideb loved the area so much she vowed to come back camping at some stage. A chance meeting with a camper there further enthused that thought within her.

I'm pretty sure I got to GZ, as I was at the place described in the clue, but this one had me stumped, and the GPS had me all over the place.

Beautiful walk in, was really enjoyed by the cache-dog, so will try again another day.

The third of four finds while enjoying some school holiday camping at Upper Yarra Reservoir.

We attempted this cache first during our stay but despite a thorough look we couldn't come up with the goods. Next day, after checking out the logs, we headed back and widened our search area, relying on the clue rather than the GPS co-ords.

Mr 1 big found the cache (where Mrs 1 big had suggested looking the day before but was ridiculed by Mr 1 big because it was too far up the hill from alledged GZ). It was a very clever hide and an excellent clue.

Seeing there were many travel bugs/coins that had been here for a while we decided to move some along, so we took Ring TB, Look into my eyes coin, Piggy coin & diabetes coin. The californian poppy coin was still safely in residence and we dropped off Seek&GoHide Canadian Geocoin.

Took a squishy ball (which was a huge hit with 1 little) and left a bouncy ball.
SL. Thanks for a fun cache gmthirteen.

Thanks to reading the other logs we were sure to extend the search area beyond what the GPS was telling us. The clue really helped too. TNLN Thanks.

The nearby caravan park was doing a roaring easter trade so there were lots of bike riding muggles on this track. After the passed we decrypted the clue and found the cache. the GPS was pointing everywhere so thanks for that. Thanks.

Like the others before me I was looking further down the hill then decrypted the clue and widened the search area, found it a few minutes later. I have done this walk before though it was lovely to come up here again. TNLNTFTC.

[This was a little harder than the other cache to find. The GPS was a little slow and seemed to finaly settle on a place down the hill from where the cache was finaly found. After a bit of poking around and picking up a few leaches the clue was taken. This had me searching in the wrong area until I reinterperated what could be considered a] tree [and then the cache was found straight away.

After this I walked a few hundered meters to check on my own cache hidden not far away.

Thanks for the cache]

FTF at 11:00. Finally my dairy was free and i could drive out and do the caches after all they were on my back door step. I enjoyed the walk around the trail, the gps did not want to play so i had to crack the hint, mmm i looked at a large one of those before realizing it was a different type. I picked up the geocoin and dropped off several coins.

A note may needed to be added to the description stating that this cache is only available during daylight hours unless camping, the gate are opened at around 09:00 and locked at 18:00 at the moment.

My thanks to gmtthirteen for the cache.
