I really did find this ages ago when the family did a trip to SA and back.

Struth! I found this with team 4as1 ages ago. (The S's, Charlie_bear, Me_to and me, Scruffyblake.)

Found ages ago as part of 4as1 (Scruffyblake, The S's, Me_To, and Me) but i forgot to log.

Thanks for the cache, took nothing, left nothing and signed log

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 28 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 listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

Due to not being able to maintain this cache, and no other cacher was willing to adopt it, I will have to archive it, such a pity as it was very popular. Sorry about all the dnf's of late.

DNF for us again today. Nearly 3 years to the day since we looked with no luck. Hopefully next time.

No Smiley for us today , needs a maintenance check or archiving

Adding my name to the list of dnf's.

Busy area. No cache

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Joined by some muggles who were interested in my search and who had found it last year. Definitely missing they said as they showed me the 2 sites they have found it before. Apparently children climb on this structure a lit. Tftc

Sadly I couldn’t find this one had a muggle staring at me the whole time so I couldn’t be too obvious... unless they were actually another geocacher?! Haha back on the road for me!

20/10/2018 found you while camping - the derrolicks

Found it. Thank you

Alas we will be adding out names to the DNF roll. We didnt really get a fair chance as a group of tourists decided to park right next to the GZ and have a nap. Ah well. Thats how it goes sometimes. We will managed to break for lunch and check out the nearby monuments.

Couldn’t put my hand on this one today.

Headed east and stopped for a break. Waited for the juggles to thin out first. Tftc.

Found on a day trip to June. Found with Scruffyblake, Charli_Bear and Me_To as part of 4as1 TFTC TNLNSL

Dig around a bit. Nice fine

Found, it was well hidden due to recent rain was lodge in mud....nice find

Had to get a little dirty but worth it for the find.

Second time.
Maybe one day I will get it.

My only DNF today . I looked in every crevice I could find, got down on hands and knees, shone a torch in, but I couldn't spot a small sized cache. I was left wondering if this is a micro, such as a mintie tin. Whatever, this beat me today.

Day 2 of my 5 day NSW adventure. Started in Wagga Wagga and ended in Bathurst.
21 finds today. The weather was fantastic. Saw Roos, rabbits and a few lizards.

12th stop. Had to circle the area a few times and peer into dark holes before finally spotting something. Well hidden.

Thanks for the cache

Since moving from New Zealand I have been enjoying the area, exploring and finding caches.
So far I’ve knocked off 4 of the states. VIC, SA, NSW and A.C.T
No two areas are the same here and almost every place I go is stunning. The beauty of caching is that it takes you to so many places you would never usually find.
Thank you to all the cachers out there for hiding and maintaining their caches. Especially to those who put so much effort into creating unique and fun hides.
The caches I’ve found in Australia so far have for the most part all been in great condition. Keep up the good work.

Found with Mummykins1 TFTC

Trickier than I had thought... so easy to pass this one off but my hands knew it was there somewhere! I've been going past this spot since I started geocaching and never had an opportunity to collect due to muggles.

Easy

For such a small place, I can't believe the number of Muggles around. The joint was jumping, caravans and campers parking for the night, big trucks running down their engines and people in and out of the conveniences all the time. However, no-one took any notice of me poking about and the cache was safely retrieved, signed and re-hidden. TFTC

Quick find with the torch after dark on our way home from the OzGeo Muster.

TFTC. Quick pit stop killed two birds, thanks for placing the cache here.

Found it, took a while but found it

I found this one on a road trip from Vic to the NSW mid north coast. An easy find. TFTC.

Day 4 of our caravan trip going South from Queensland . Heading towards my birthplace, Culcairn.

Tftc

Found it on my way to Melbourne with bikesu.Tftc

Whoohooo. Thanks

My last find for the day, as I had to make tracks to my hotel in Wagga Wagga. Darn! I missed a fellow geocacher that was here to day. tftc

Found 1441 cache thanks for placement and time spent taking care of it log signed

Needed a quick pit stop realised there was a cache here so decided to grab it while we were stopped. TfTc

Found when we stopped for the night
Very nice park lovely setting

Found it. Thank you.

Nice quick sign and dash with the car as a makeshift cover against muggles. In and out, if only they were all this easy! Thanks for placing a cache here and giving us an excuse for a leg stretch.

The ANU were launching a balloon to 30000 metres in Temora to measure the amount of uv light up there. The ACT Emergency Services, Rivers Unit accompanied the ANU to Temora to assist in the recovery of the scientific instruments that were dropped when the balloon exploded. Found this cache on the journey home. TFTC.

Nice leg stretch..

Not many muggles about so a quick find here today! Thank you for placing! : )

Nice park and grab

Thanks to past logs I clicked as to where it could be, and there it was. I doubt someone in a wheelchair can reach it as per the guidelines to rate it as a T1.

Doing Sydney to Cootamundra and back in a day, it was nice to break it up with a few caches along each way.

Coming back a different way from my PQ, I used the phone to quickly grab this one.

A nice quick find here.

TFTC

For such a small GZ this cache has given cachers a run for it's money! So a very careful search was needed and on this occasion i was lucky to have found it so quickly. I just had to time my retrieval and return carefully as there were lots of muggles here late in the day. Tftc

Well this would never have been found pushed away into the back of this spot. After getting a stick probing around in there up came geohubby with the goods. Tftc

I tried to gather some likely suspects for a trip out to the coast today, but was particularly unsuccessful being father's day and all. So I decided instead to head out past Yass to Bradman country - Cootamundra via Binalong. It started out as a lovely warm spring day, but a change came across with some very strong winds, but it stayed warm, hitting about 23C - the warmest I've been since about April !

Didn't find this one. It wasn't in the roacks.

Thanks anyway Miss Meges & Haydos

Second DNF. 3 years ago we were muggled out of a find. This time the rain stopped us. Dont think I like this cache.

On a sunny morning drive. Picked this one up on the way to Coota
TFTC Miss Meges & Haydos

Signed and replaced. Tftc

Quick pit stop driving home from Melbourne TFTC

Great little rest area - luckily not too busy today. TFTC

Another good find while going from cache to cache today.
*Enjoyed the drive around.*

TFTC. We left Cowra this morning heading south. We had stopped here a few days ago but too many muggles hanging around. Nobody about to day so we could look a little more carefully.

Found with X-Pair.

Finally on our 3rd attempt Volplaner found it with us.

Found on a road trip with adventurous elderly parents. They live the stories and the finds
They have a old connection to one of the brothers
Tftc

Stopped for a cuppa, found a geocache!

On our way to Leeton for the weekend. Dodged the other rest-stoppers and drank my SES supplied tea while signing the cache.
TFTC

Camped the night at the rest stop with about ten thousand trucks slowing down for the roundabout and planting the foot again which surprisingly didn't keep us awake. [)] Saw GZ when we arrived and thought 'that thar looks like a cache hide' and be damned if it wasn't! TFTC Miss Meges & Haydos.

Had to time it to avoid muggles but all good.

#6227 - 17:25; Out on a day run with Sol de lune and fitzy_1965 starting off in Wagga Wagga, then north for the 'Friendship Run' series and on to Temora for some of the newer caches there. We had finished the trail, had a spot of lunch in Marrar, then completed the Temora mission and were now headed for home. Stopped off for me to grab this one on the way past. I enjoy learning a bit of local history while locating a cache and this cache had both. Adding a favorite point for the experience. Nice and quiet today, but can get busy here at times. TFTC Miss Meges & Haydos

New log placed in cache with room for 120 signatures. All is good with the cache.

As a truck driver delivering fuel around this glorious area, I have driven past this rest area numerous times but there has always been too many muggles. Today I had the opportunity and time for another find at another great memorial. I love reading about our pioneer past that made this great land. After lowering my center of gravity, in the process getting my knees wet on the wet grass, cache was quickly in hand after about 30 seconds, signed and replaced where found. TFTC.
Log book full.

CO does not have permission from local council to place a cache at this memorial. People are disrespecting this memorial site. Council does not know anything about a geocache here and does not give permission when I asked them. Cheers.

Hey everybody Jerrynewgirl has removed her log where she defended this cache and said she was here when it was placed. The log where she said I was wrong and called me a liar for saying cache was a waste of time and a throw down. How gutless. Even she knows her log was rubbish and was ashamed of it and has given up defending the indefensible. If you have any integrity, repost your log and stop sending personal emails to me saying you disagree. Make it public for all to see. Re post your defence of this cache. SHAME ON YOU JERRYNEWGIRL. SHAME.

The CO lied to, and deceived the reviewer by telling them they had permission from council to publish this geocache.Everybody that has looked for this has been harming this memorial believing they were not doing anything wrong. SHAME ON THE PEOPLE BEHIND THIS CACHE. SHAME.

WOW! The owner of this cache does not even live in the state the cache is placed. It went for a period of 6 months with no cache being present, till someone threw a cheap replacement so they could log a find. Who is maintaining this cache? Seems like no one. This is against the guidelines. A reason for archiving?

What's with all the weroman insulting comments over the years saying people need to look harder and not say it is gone? It has gone missing over the years, so how were they to know it was there when the owners don't even live in the same state as the cache. There is no hint for an "easy' cache in the description. Maybe we should all just give up looking like weroman has, and be lounge chair loggers where we insult people who are keeping the game alive and tell them to look harder and tell them to open their eyes as weroman does in his insulting posts on this cache.

Contacted council. CO does not have permission to place a geocache at this local council memorial. The council does not know anything about a geocache at this location. It doesn't seem right to have over 300 people over the years climbing over this memorial plaque. Very disrespectful to the pioneers memories indeed. Either get written permission from the council to place some junk item here and have their permission for people to disrespect the memorial and touch and climb over this memorial, or do the decent thing and archive it.

I must be right if you had to delete what I wrote.

Hey jerrynewgirl.
Nice of you to call me a liar. A cheap container thrown under rocks near a toilet stop is all that this cache is. You personally email me and accuse me of only doing this hobby for numbers. Creeping around toilets is not my idea of a special location, worthy of a cache. Surely there was a better location to highlight this area other than have people creep around public toilets like perverts. By the way as this cache is just another numbers cache I didn't even bother looking for it.
There is a rumour going around about you and your Geo caching partner weroman removing other people's geo caches that you deem unworthy. After my first correspondence with you people I am starting to wonder if it is true.
PS. Some people enjoy playing this hobby for the numbers. I don't see how that is a bad thing. If you had of put more effort into this placement and shown people a more interesting location, those who play for the numbers, might experience that the game is more than just numbers to enjoy.

To further my point that the cache is a waste of time, it only has one favourite point in nearly ten years. Looks like everyone else agrees with me. Maybe it is time for this one to be put to rest, to allow others to place something better... In my opinion, this is what I would say is a throw down geocache without much thought or effort or consideration for anyone else. You have had a geocache here for far to long in my opinion, maybe let some one else have a go.

Hey Jerrynewgirl. Your last message says you were there when it was placed. I have looked thru the logs and see you have logged it as a find. Did you really 'find' it cause you were there when it was placed. How can you find something when you already know where it is. Makes me and I would say others in the game doubt the validity of all your so called 'finds'. I don't know why you would want to cheat in this game and claim a find here. If you took this hobby seriously you would erase this so called find. You and your partner attacked me on my dubious finds. Hypocrisy anyone?

I have read the last extensive notes and as the local owner and living in Young, I maintain the cache. As there have been 258 finds with positive comments and some 47 dnf's, some of whom returned and got a find, I feel that there is no need to continue with the abusive comments from one cacher who could not find it. All is good with the cache.

Another waste of time cache. Just a throw down for no reason. Don't bother wasting your time. Removed 2 syringes at gz. Not a very safe spot to be putting your hands everyone. Gz is a shooting gallery. SHAME

While on the road travelling home from a respite trip with troobloo, we took the opportunity to make a quick stop to stretch the legs and find this cache.
A quick glance as to where GZ would be and there was a camp set up nearby and we presumed someone was sleeping in the tent as there was no people in sight what-so-ever. We snuck past the tent and had no trouble finding the cache. On our way back to the cars we stopped to read the info sign because it's always nice to read and learn about the history of places.
Thanks for the fun Miss Meges & Haydos!

From all the recent logs we figured this one wasn't here and we couldn't locate it either.

No

No

8 pairs of eyes looked hard and long, but to no avail.

Busy there as Most of truck stopped Luck I get it as no one see as truck was block me.
Found it
Thanks Miss Meges & Haydos

A good cache and hindsight a relatively easy find. The semi constant flow of grey noamuggles makes this one hard. TFTC TNLN

Two Norwegians on holiday in Australia. Started in Brisbane three weeks ago and will end up in Sydney around Xmas. After driving the East Coast to Adelaide we will visit Tasmania and New Zealand. Friday we arrived Katoomba from Hunter Valley and today our plan was to reach Wagga Wagga and log some caches along the route. Found it where it should be. Our cache # 2900 and # 125 in Australia.
TFTC

Over from Adelaide, visiting a Muggle friend we found ourselves up this way. Having just come back from Harden I wanted to grab this cache on our way back to Coota for lunch. Found before I even did a loop around GZ... anticlockwise SL at 11:28 on Thu. 20 Oct 2016. TFTC Miss Meges & Haydos

FINALLY!!
This is our third visit to this cache and we finally found it. It was were we thought it was the first two visits but only had success today

We looked at all the DNF's on this one and wondered. Plenty of muggles in the area when we came. We noted and heeded the advice not to over think the hide.There was only one area where it could be hiding, according to our GPS. Geo hubby started on a very careful and systematic search lap of the feature and found it before getting right around. The colour of the camo is really good and we can see why it sometimes gets missed. Thank you to Miss Meges & Haydos for a very satisfying find.

Is it actually there ?? No where to be seen

Looks like this one has been removed

Once again I feel compelled to write a note for this cache. This cache IS accessible by wheelchair, so the Terrain Rating according to the Geocaching Guidelines **IS** correct.
There appears to be a 'trend' for this cache, in as much as those with few caches, find it to be a '***quick easy find***' and in accordance with the Geocaching Guidelines for Difficulty, the cache can be found within 10 - 15 minutes, so the Difficulty Rating ****IS** correct. Perhaps those caching with more experience need to 'think again'!

I gave this one a check up on my way through. It is still there in the correct spot.

I'm pretty confident that this cache has gone missing. Given it is a 1.5/1 then it should be in the rocks, but there is no cache there. I found a flake of granite which I expect was the cammo for the cache, but there is no cache there.

Well we once again tried to find this one, again with no luck, GPS seemed to put us on to what was the likely hide. Will try next time we come this way.

A quick find on our way to Young. A lovely little rest stop. TFTC

Found! Tricky little hide. TFTC
