We too didn't find the original cache only the consolation prize.

Did not find

DNF but found the consolation prize.
 
12-Nov-17
Spent quite some time looking for this one before going for a walk with good old Harold. Our walk was more fruitful than the search here. As there were quite a few dnf's before us, we left a small plastic not a cache baggie with a balloon as a consolidation prize. We will be keeping an eye on this one to see if cache is found or owner does a maintenance report.
 
15-Sep-17
Followed all the clues. If it was inside the bucket, it's not there anymore.
 
11-Sep-17
Searched for a very long time but no
 
11-Aug-17
After logging a newly published Earthcache we headed for Millaa Millaa to grab a couple more finds.

Unfortunately we are adding our name to the list of DNF's. Loved the sculptureBig Grin

Thanks anyway Ballbag&Bumblebee[^]

Pearcey and i looked for ages but couldn't find it.
 
02-May-17
DNF at 12:04 PM.
It may still be there, but mud has piled up against and under the rocks and made it difficult to search.
Nice sculpture.
 
23-Dec-16
Don't like logging DNFs - especially if I'm the first. Sometimes you just aren't looking at the right angle and you miss it. Hope someone does find this one. It's a great area.
 
04-Nov-16
Loved the nearby sculpture. TFTC

We spent a long time on this one. A leaf blower would have helped, but I had to leave it at home. Besides I could not have plugged it in here. It's 120 volt. I looked close once but George was really looking in the correct area. We circled around different places but no luck. George returned to the correct location a couple of time but kept missing it. Finally in the last place she looked she spotted the smiley. I know, that is where she always finds them, but it would not have hurt if she had found it earlier. Some times spending so much time searching for moldy paper really makes you feel dumb. How come it is usually so much fun. - Zeke & George of Hot Springs, Arkansas, USA

Together with Silli1310, we went on holiday for an entire year. In the beginning, we went to South America for a good 3 months. Then we went to New Zealand for a good 2 months and then to Tasmania for just under a month. Once we were down here, we naturally wanted to visit Australia as well. We decided on a road trip along the east coast. So we started in Melbourne and drove via the Alps to Canberra, from there towards the Blue Mountains and then to Brisbane and Cairns. After seeing a lot the last few days, we realised that we had a few days left on our way to Darwin. So we decided quite spontaneously to go to Uluru. After we had filled up our supplies, we went through the Atherton Tablelands on the first day. Unfortunately, it was pretty rainy, so we couldn't do that much. Since the next few days would certainly be quite monotonous, we braved the bad weather and tried to find some caches during a few walks. In the case of the cache, it was not a walk that attracted us, but the funny place name. We were able to drive up to the cache and sign the logbook after a short search. Many thanks for the cache.

On our [trip around the world](http://www.hoppundweg.piekar.de/) we came to Australia as well. We started in Tasmania, rented a campervan in Melbourne and went up the Eastcoast to Cairns. Then we drove all the way to the Red Centre. We finished in Darwin. We searched many caches and found almost every cache we searched for Wink. Thanks to all the owners of these caches. Now, 2 years later, we recognized, we will never be able to log every cache seperately... So: Sorry for this standard logtext and thanks for one of the caches, which accompanied us on our journey.
