I noticed that this cache has been temporarily disabled for a period of time well in excess of the period of "a few weeks" as contemplated by the cache guidelines published on Geocaching.com. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other caches from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever. Please either repair/replace this cache, or archive it (using the *archive listing* link in the upper right) so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location.

If you plan on repairing this cache, **please log a note to the cache** (not email) within the next 28 days so I don't archive the listing for non-communication. 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.

just checked this site and the cache has been removed again, suspect the local children are at work. will have to find a new location that is more secure. will advise ASAP of new location

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

We had no luck looking for this one today.

Found the spot where it seems to have been, but like others can confirm not found. Time for an Owner check me thinks

Spent an hour... couldn't find it... might need to be checked

Searched for an hour, what a devious hide and hint. Rocks rocks and more rocks. Nice hide.

A good walk up to gz. I forgot my pen n had hoped there was one in the cache.... so took a selfie with the log book... tftc on a road trip to Darwin.

TFTC pen died so took photo of cache

A great place to stop for a cuppa

Was a bit worried when I got to the gz at the shears number of rocks but coming at this one from the right direction made for a quick search TFTC

Found it thankyou.

Found late at dusk. Had to use my phone torch.. Beaut spot ... Thanks!

Yay!!! Had to search for a bit. Nice location. Had fun searching. Nice view of Cloncurry.

Continuing on our trek east grabbing caches along the way. TFTC.

Thanks.

Bring a pencil to log your find.

Travelling from Brisbane to Karumba and Lawn Hill and whilst in Cloncurry thought we’d do a couple of caches. Great view from up here.

On a rail and bus tour out to Lawn Hill and doing a few caches if we can slip away for a find.Thanks roger ram jet.

Great find
Upgraded the cache inside

Great views of the surrounding district. Interesting place to walk around. TFTC.

A great lunch stop and a nice place to browse the history of the area, as well as the big array of interesting rocks. We had stopped in the ghost town of Mary Kathleen, so it was another good reason to come and visit this spot. Cache was a bit tricky to locate, but was eventually found. TFTC

Interesting history about the mine.

As we arrived in town today, we set ourselves the challenge of finding most of the caches around Cloncurry, despite the heat. We also wanted to find them as quickly as possible. This one actually came to light fairly quickly and we were pleased to do the signing and move on. Thank you to roger ram jet for placing this cache.

My daughter found it and it was up high thats all i have to say

After leaving Julia Creek this morning we headed to Cloncurry and after setting up the van we drove out to find a few of the local caches.

Our second to last find in the heat of the afternoon.

Many thanks for the hide roger ram jet

Happy to found this one...
At last one more smile in Australia ! The cache is A1 Thanks for the discovery and greetings from Montréal Québec

I had to get out of the house and do some caches, so instead of finding local ones, i went to the curry for the afternoon and found 8 for 8! TFTC TNLN

Drove into town this morning as we continue our wandering around northern Australia after attending the Red Centre Experience over Easter. Pa did some shopping and then we cached around town.
After the sun had cooled down, I walked across the road and up to this cache. Took longer than it should have, but eventually I stamped the log and replaced the cache where I found it.
Thanks for placing this cache for us to find Roger Ram Jet.

We were planning on catching up with friends who are heading back to Melbourne that we haven't seen for a few years we hung around Cloncurry for the morning waiting for time to arrive and what better way to kill time than to go caching.

We had a look around the park as we were coming up here as well as some of the old buildings as well and they were quite interesting as we had visited the old Mary Kathleen township yesterday. We then headed up to gz and then had to be content looking at a nearby piece of machinery until some muggles at the nearby look out finally left. Fortunately we started searching in the right spot and the cache was locate din the third place we looked and our name was added to the log before nay other muggles arrived.

Thanks roger ram jet for the cache.

We left Mt Isa by lunchtime and arrived in Cloncurry.

Caravan dropped off and out we went to explore town using Geocaching as a guide.

On our way back to thecaravan park we stopped in here for the 2 caches.

Lovely see here and view.... TFTC

Thanks to TEAM RED ROO for the replacement log didn't like the surprise though THTC

Hi there roger ram jet - we arrived in town yesterday and today TWO wanted to check out the local visitor center. While there I checked this cache out. A small cliplock container was found behind some rocks but was completely empty, so I returned to the car for a replacement log. Team Gypsys had just arrived and he came back to the cache with me with the new log. The cache and log are in good condition though the container lid is cracked - SL. This is our find #4896 - thanks to roger ram jet for this cache.

Found in company with Team Red Roo. TFTHSL.

Found ground zero.... an empty sostema container laying on surface. Put it back. No sign of log book or anything else.

Found ground zero today... an empty sistema container laying on surface. Put it back. No sign of log book or anything else. Needs maintenance.

Bloody easy. Piece of piss

Thanks a lot for all of Aussie caches! I must say that Australia is really beautiful and one of the best country for holiday! Me and my girlfriend enjoyed 52 days long travelling (from Brisbane to Brisbane via Cairns, Darwin, Alice Springs, Adelaide, Melbourne, Canberra, Sydney and Gold Coast), sleeping in our car and of course geocaching here!

Greetings from the Czech Republic/Europe! I would like to invite all australian geocachers to Czechia, we have got many excellent caches on amazing places too!

No pipe, no traceable, no pen. Left card. Just a small systema.

Camped at Corella dam going towards Cloncurry today, after leaving the Red Centre Experience picking up a few caches along the way. TFTC

We have set up camp at Corella Dam, such a great spot & we have caught many red claw here.

TFTC 2339# on the way to NT SA and NSW these are the few last ones before we hit the NT traveling with muggle sister and geo dogs having a great time meeting new people and old friend at ARMAC

tftf, a nice early morning walk to get the heart rate up.

Unlike the cities, Sunday is a quiet day in outback towns with a lot of businesses shut. Had a look around Cloncurry then came to Mary K Park to have a picnic lunch and find the caches. Some great views to be had from GZ. TFTC roger ram jet.

We've been to the Mega at Alice Springs and now on the homeward stretch so still looking for caches. Coongoola may sign small log sheets as CG if there's not much room.

Found in the company of Liz and Bruce and Bruce found this one.

Thanks for the cache roger ram jet.

Love the outback and finding this cache. We are happy to have plenty of time to spend exploring this unique area. Thanks to roger ram jet for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.

Bugger no tb! Took few mins find that! Got signed with Pattol14 TFTC

We are on an express road trip from Brisbane to Alice Springs but taking the opportunity to find a few caches along the way [^] There will be a little more time on our return trip so we will be taking some time out to better explore some of the areas we have had to fly past

We located this cache easily enough and with our name added to the log book, we continued on our long drive.

Thank you roger ram jet for having placed the cache and for maintaining it for everyone to enjoy

We were up early this morning went for a walk and found a cache.

Found easily. Back to the air con in the car. TFTC

Found at 0816. Bit of a climb for and old fellow. Like a previous cacher I found it open with a cracked lid and no log book. Normally I have something I can put in to serve as a log for awhile but today I found I didn't have anything on me. TFTC.

The container was open and contents scattered, unfortunately there was no log to sign... I will send a photo to the CO.

I have rehidden in the same pile of rocks.

Thanks for bringing me to this interesting spot.

First TFTC it was very clever and well hidden however here is a bit of a story, we searched for approximately 20mins looking for a black sewer pipe as it said in the description then we found what appeared to be the remains of a black sewer pipe broken so we were disappointed then after reading the comments and looking at the photos we realised the container had been updated to a Tupperware container. Then we refollowed the directions and found it. Be careful retrieving it there r some nasty ants.

visited this cache while collecting info for the new earthcache close by. a quick find when we located the correct rock spot. TFTC

A quick cache in a very pretty and interesting place. TFTC

Early morning cache before hitting the road. TFTC

Unfortunately this is going to be one of 'those logs' and I am sorry in advance for the lame generic log, my excuse is we are on the road for 6 weeks, so with limited time and Internet I have decided a generic log is best ATM.
Where are we going in the 6 weeks we are away? Everywhere! Leaving from Gippsland in Victoria The main aim is The Top end, Cape York then back down to the Dinosaur triangle then eventually making our way home.
Thank you for supplying us with a cache to do along the way.
This was a great location, Geology fascinates me and I'm keen to learn more.

We were out and about in the area for a quick cache grab while the washing was in progress back at the caravan park. We visited Mary Kathleen and stayed there for a week in our van. It was great to see the history here. Lovely views from up the hill too. TFTC

Arrived in time to look around at the gem festival. After buying a couple of items we made our way to the cache. Just a few minutes and the cache was in hand. No tbs in here as per inventory though. .. thanks for the cache. We are here for 1 night and try to find one at each stop...
