As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

i am disabling this because it seems to have disapeared =(

Had a brief search but were getting tired after an afternoon of caching. Not sure if details are correct?
POTS 80, Ben & I will have another go at some other time?

cache CERTAINLY NOT at posted coords. ah well.

Nice Starzy! Log book owas slightly damp...looking forward to your next cache!

Found after the help of some previous noted cood changes, phew the alternative looked like hard work

Happy Hunting Shane4

Used Skippy's co-ords this time and Shane came up a winner almost straight away.

Ahhh finally found the cache, Nice playground over the street. SL. Thanks starzy for organising the cache and hunt.

three of us had a good look around - nada. had great sat lock with +/- 3m so should have been easy.

should we re-visit next weekend ?

Looked at wrong place to start with due to coordinates being out

We had GZ 10 metres away
Somebody might have cache creeped to the wrong bush
Thanks starzy

GPS had us searching the wrong piece of flora. We were about to give up but tried the other one on the way, and there it was. Bit tricky to spot it at night. The logbook has had a rough life, but at least it's dry now.

TNLN - Thanks starzy

A quick find. TFTC

Found easily. Good GPS signal in the park. Cache seemed clean and dry, no current signs of mould. Took nothing, left two ants (inadvertently). Tried to log from my iPhone; apparently it didn't work. TFTC

Not in the 1st spot we looked, but found it none the less.
L: flashing spinning top (and snap lock bag for the log book - still a bit wet)
T: nothing

I, B

Needs to be replaced, as its mouldy and smells

Nice park. Found cache easily. Mind you - the log was very wet and moldy! But that's ok - my favorite caching pen (space pen) writes on wet paper fine! Tnln tftc.

Well thankfully Anja made an easy find, as where I was looking might have taken a while!

As tankengine said, the cache is mouldy, and smells to match

In the end, TNLNSL

Need pegs on noses for this one - the mould is prolific and the smell not much better. Definitely NOT a watertight container.

How did I miss it last time?

Easy find now that the grass is dying down a bit.

Found this one with MCSirCH + my family on a big day out.
Looked round and round and round the trees but couldn't find it.
In all hope and desperation looked where it was and found it.

Ha ha. This one was hidden well.

A quick easy find with help from Starzy

TNLNSL

It’s well camouflaged at the moment, but will stand out like the proverbials when the grass dies off. Does it have a ‘summer’ coat? . No swaps.

An easy find on a lovely sunny Saturday afternoon. Thanks for the cache Starzy.

How did we miss that last time [?] 3 cachers around the correct tree. You would think it impossible. But it actually happened.

Clear skies with Jupiter's Mojo could have been the answer.

What a difference a week makes. Searching for the cache I bashed it with my torch. How three seasoned geocachers with +9000 finds missed it last week is just plain crazy. Maybe it was that excellent camo.

Been meaning to do this one for a while as its just round the corner from homestead.T - CALL ME TB L - FRIDGE MAGNET

Situated in a nice quiet park, no muggles, left TB Call me.

Log Book was damp. As someone else has suggested this cache may need to move before the grass dies leaving it exposed.

Last of the night and no find for us lookers.

It was getting late and luck wasnt with us.
That sure was one noisey power line.

The over head power lines made what little hair I had stand up on end. Maybe we were searching in the wrong bush. I have heard how the E field can upset the G field. Maybe it was the ionized dust particles we were breathing in. They can do more damage than the E field - or so they say. A quick search here is a good search. Well not this time.....

Clear skies, TeamAstro.

Quick find in the rain. Took tb. Thanks starzy

Didn't find it on a day when I found 3 of 11 searches.

There were a few muggles around so I didn't really give it a full on search.

TFTC

Found it nice and easy. Left TB "Platypus" Nice park.
Thanks starzy for the cache.

A quick stop here as well, no muggles to be seen anywhere!
TNLNSL, Cheers.

Was wandering around the park trying to zero in on gz when we were approached by a neighbour. He had seen a number of people wandering around and inspecting the bushes closely and wanted to know what was happening. After we explained geocaching and the use of the GPSr he went away apparently satisfied.

As we came back this time we quickly found the cache. Thanks starzy.

Came back for a second look as GZ was dismissed the first time in the rain.

I agree with others, what happens in 6mth time to the cache?

Thanks

found by polkys quest

Quick find after work. We fear for this cache during the dry months. Thanks for the hunt starzy.

took a while to locate GZ but found it in the end TFTC took coin

Published

Published at 9:23, I knew that Team Hurtle was on the road to Strathalbyn - half a chance for a FTF. Headed down the 5.5 km from home to find a blank log book at 9:45pm. Checked out a few places where it could have been before doing a thorough check of the 1st place I checked. Left Team Firesafe pathtag. TFTC.

Had really thought that we were a chance of a FTF for this one, must have only just missed Firesafe.

Took Tag
Left Pen

Thanks for the cache

Actually stopped in home, on way to Strath, and saw this new one had only just been published! We were already late, as had to do the round trip, so headed off with co-ords loaded to grab on way back. Only 2.2km, as crow flies, from home too!
Stopped in the rain at about 2245 only to find we had only just made it on the podium for the bronze! Bugger.
Those powerlines really buzz in the rain.
Sorry, but have to question what will happen to this one, when the weather turns hot, and the cover disappears?

Thanks
