No response from owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note.. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it. Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.
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 (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every month or so to keep everyone up to date.
This one seems to be missing and in need of an owner check-up. With no action by owner, perhaps this one needs to be let go.
Whizzing about in the canoe with La Kedi doing the 'Float Your Boat' series, and I noted this one too close to float past. We docked at the nearby jetty and headed in. The previous DNF's didn't fill me with hope and we had no luck in finding it either. perhaps it is time for an owner check-up here. Back to the canoe and time to blast off once more.
T-Tech and I had spent a few hours on the river in the kayak today, and since we put in at Daisy Elms Park we thought we'd pick up this cache on our way home. Got to what we thought was a likely spot for the hide, but only came up with two doggie bags A thorough search was made of the area, but we couldn't find the cache.
DNF. Only thing we found was a bag with dog-droppings in its most likely hiding place. Some dog owners do not seem to like Geocaching.
Out with newly converted Geocacher Daughter (Coffs Harbour based) up for a visit so we have combined a bit of Shopping with Geocaching.
Geo Daughter has done the shopping part and we have just had difficult success with "Pochacco" so up the road and here we are.
NOW which tree is it?? We search around and around but settle on the most obvious GZ but which part is it? Geo Dad (Me) has a bit of an internal examination and am rewarded with the prize in hand.
Elderly Lady Muggle is a bit puzzled at what we are doing but her poch is more suspicious and makes us feel very uncomfortable, but finally the walk must be had and they head of.
Thanks Jenisis Another classic hide in your style.

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Jinga2 at 10:12am. With muggles walking by this one took a few minutes to get but we did and the cache is in good condition. TFTC
A Christmas day present for the geonephew who used eagle eyes, Christmas torch present and a few minutes searching to make a good find. All in good order although thrhe container is crached and could be replaced. TFTC, this is a lovely spot.
I could see it, I just didn't want to get it. There were spiderwebs all around it and I just had a vision of me putting my hand in to grab it and a whole heap of spiders grabbing me. In the end I found a stick and moved it closer to the egde where I managed a quick grab. I soon had pen to paper and replaced the cache.
A nice place to visit on our 3rd run around this week on our run to the 10k mark.

I thought that was a good spot as I walked by following my wayward GPS. Finally it brought me back and a little rummaging around and there it was. Also found a coke can and half a metal toy gun. Took them to the bin on my way out. Thanks for another nice park Jenisis
On a caching weekend without the Spouses, MrsGreenGeckos & I found this one after finding that some treasure had hidden a plastic bag with not-so-treats from thier dogs (in fact, these were likely the results of the digestive process from the doggy treats.)
Out caching with Mischievous Maverick for the weekend. Nice to find one after a couple of DNF's. TFTH
It did not take long to spot the cache however, some
people have used hide as a rubbish disposal area.
Nevertheless we managed to retrieve cache and signed the log.

Nice easy find...nice and quiet except for some muggles with dogs. Great park for a picnic!
Quick note : found on holiday on a rainy wednesday morning. Tiny hide for a big patch of scrub!
This one had a special kind of cache guardian - seems it is masquerading as a doggy poop disposal area. We were determined to get that cache though! Thanks Jenisis
A big "thumbs down" to the dog owner who used GZ as recepticle for their dog business. Idiots. Pagan from Lokipagan discarded of said unpleasantness and the cache was found in good condition. TFTC Jenisis
Staying for a few nights at Hope Island Resort and grabbed this cache. A lovely spot as the sun was setting over the river. Knew where GZ was but no cache. Confused I eventually brought out the caching torch. Put my hand where the sun doesn't shine and found the cache. Dropped my pathtag.

Nice quite shady park. Found before heading off to have some lunch at Paradise Point. TFTC
A quick find before getting pulled over at a police check point and stuck in horrendous traffic while I made my way back to Surfers.

This was our 400th cache and second for the day
What a great little park to walk thru except for the mozzies that had us in their sight while we retrieved and signed the log

Easy found, put a new logbook as the original one was wet and a mess. The container is cracked so if someone could bring a new one, it'll be great. TFTC
Quick find in the obvious spot. The cache log is a bit munted. Might want to put a new one soon. TFTC
Just found. Right round the corner from a qld cousins. Dropped off a gc that I've had for way too long
An easy find but I had to wait for a passing muggle before I could retrieve the cache.
Everything in the area is pretty well soaked after a large deluge yesterday but the contents are dry.

I had time only for one cute Japanese character cache on the way home and this one was chosen.
Thanks

This was the second last cache of 26 on day six of my QLD trip. A nice quick find, sounds like some kind of Pokemon to me. My thanks to Jenisis for the cache.
Nice quick find after lunch at the beach. Lots of mozzies! Log quite damp but managed to sign. Tftc
Found by Mary & David at 0845. A quiet little park with great views to the water. Our thanks again to Jenisis.
Nice little park and muggle free on an overcast day. TFTC
The log was a bit wet but still OK. I left a cache dwelling frog.

After coming into the area for a FTF thought I might as well knock over another couple of caches while here. Found this cache nicely protected by some very fine small cobwebs and felt a bit bad about brushing them out of the way. Nice and dry inside even with all this rain. Took: nothing. Left: our signature and a geocaching badge. TFTC!
Thanks Jenisis for the cache. Lovely little hide. Protected by tiny spiders today. What a great camouflage their fine webs made. TNLNSL.
There was a quiet stillness in this park this afternoon. The trees really make this park, it doesn't need anything else. Except mozzie repellant after 4pm. Little cache seems quite safe and happy in its tree. I signed the log and returned it to its Ham-Home. The little Ham-Hams could play very happily here I think.
Found this quickly... some interesting little insects near the cache. Went for a stroll to the water, some great views here. Thanks.
Next find after Pochacco. Much easier find. Had to beat a hasty retreat initially to pile on the RID. Returning suitably protected KT found it without the aid of the GPSr. Nice hide. SL TFTC
Found by the TiedyeSmileys on our Adelaide, NSW QLD trip away.
Another nice quick find on our killing a few hours before dreamworld opens caching outing. Even though we were only here a few minutes, boy were those mozzies bad.

Nice quick find. Young local muggles around. We learnt about Ibis and Jacaranda trees which to us not so locals were quite amazing to watch. What a stunning colour.
Found at 15:40. Another nice quiet park. Well hidden but found with the help of 'The Bears'

We're a bit demoralized as everyone else found it SO EASILY, they say. Well, today we couldn't find it. Will have to try again another day.
MY FIRST CACHE!!!!! how exciting, had no idea what we were looking for but got it! thanks
The navigator was so good that it parked the car nearly on top of the cache. Just made a quick search and the cache was in hand ready to be signed. TFTC TNLN SL
Another easy find for me, quickly logged and replaced. As I was driving away, I passed a muggle heading my way - I was relieved that it was a quick stop. Thanks, Jenisis!
The hamster was home when I called by today
He was a bit reluctant to show himself at first, but eventually it showed itself

Found this one after a couple of false starts. Spotted a likely tree but GPSr pointed us elsewhere. Dead bat at first GZ but we decided if the cache was there then it could stay unfound. Really needed let the GPSr settle with so many trees around. It led Geowife back to the original likely tree, a delve and we were done. TFTC
Entered onto the book of LEDGIN'S. A quick find with no Muggles in sight. SL. Thanks jenisis
Someone was there about an hour before us. Geodog in tow for this one. Good hiding spot.
The cache was covered so well... I nearly gave up... luckily got it on my last try... TFTC
2nd DNF with geo-daughter (Ally-Searching) 2day...
Searched high & low on what we think was the correct tree + a few others nearby for good measure but all to no avail...
Nice location though - will remember to try again another day...

I have been walking my dog passed this one every day for the last six months, it was only today that I remembered the ink. TFTC
Took a bit of finding. In fact I looked there twice before KidJ from KidzJCT found it.
All 4 of THENANKS had a great day out caching with our good friends the MadMyers. I think Mrs Mad has said it all in the log below.
Congratulation to the MadMyers on their 900th find too!

Well a mile stone for the MadOnes - and we are such number counters - that we did not even know- this makes cache find number 900!!!! Whooo Hooo - and it was a nice little park that we reached this mile stone at. The geokids all knew who the cache was named after - but not the adults - never mind. The cache was found - did I mention find number 900!!! and the log signed. Thanks for the cache.
Quick find in the first place I looked [^]. TN/LN/SL. There was only one muggle in sight way across the park. TFTC.
Gave up after searching from tree to tree..
muggles were walking past few times.
sigh!
Thanks
