Logs

One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

This cache appears to be in need of owner intervention, therefore I am temporarily disabling it so as to stop it showing up on on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Geocache maintenance is a cache owner responsibility. Your prompt attention to any log that indicates things could be amiss is greatly appreciated by all geocachers. The rule is; if you can't fix it straight away then "Disable" it till you can - I have disabled it for you this time! [^]

Please respond to this situation by 18th October to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness. Sad

If you require more time, please be sure to post a "Write Note" log (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 28 days so as to keep everyone up to date, or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Couldn't locate it but had lunch. Also filled a bag full of rubbish from the dock
 
31-Aug-14
Didn't find it. Pretty area though
 
24-Jun-14
Still just a rock in its place.
 
04-May-14
Couldn't find it either spent about 30mins searching the area too.
 
04-Apr-14
As with the last few we did not find. Spent quite a while searching.
 
09-Mar-14
Gps all over the place today. Looked where we thought it could be with no joy. Found a rock in a log though ! Sad
 
23-Feb-14
2nd attempt still no luck. Same rock in its place.
 
20-Feb-14
Could have been muggled - Not in spot or around area where it was found before by one of our members
 
20-Feb-14
This may have been muggled as I have found this cache before but when today's group went looking we could not find it.
 
26-Dec-13
Day one of our post Christmas / pre New Year trip... taking our new tent trailer for a test run, weather was very hot and humid. Our travels are taking us up to Ettamogah and across to Old Tallangatta before returning home.

Visiting many towns along the way, taking the Geo wife to places she has never been before, and giving our Geo Pug time to sniff out new territories Smile

Did not expect to be seeing constant temps in the high 30's to low 40's... Geo wife got to see her first live black snake on the road in Australia, and I almost stood on a 5 foot brown snake at one cache on the HCRT, and a red back spider at another.
Stayed at some nice FREE camp sites along the way and a couple of caravan parks as well, learned a lot of things along the way, history and more, but in all a great adventure and we were able to clock up our 1000th find along the way ..

GPS went crazy here, so it was seek and find the old fashion way... search likely spots

thanks to the CO for this cache

15-Nov-13
I had lunch with a group of motorcyclists nearby today. Four of us are geocachers, so we all went looking and found this cache. As previously mentioned, it was necessary to expand our search area. Maybe the coords need to be altered. tftc.

It took us a while to find this cache - the satellites today having our GZ 12m southeast of where we eventually found the cache. Fortunately the rain held off and the river as usual was bubbling by quite unconcerned - a good place for CFA red tankers to practice pumping!

TNLN . . SL . . Thanks for the hunt Redtanker.

This one took me a bit longer than anticipated! I saw the tree straight away but my GPS wasn't cooperating very well... then eventually had to look at the gallery! But got there in the end Smile TFTC Redtanker... actually i saw a red tanker down by the river today, CFA doing something or other... Smile

One of many caches throughout of Easter Long Weekend trip up the Kiewa Valley and the Victorian High Country.

All Were Great Caches, Thanks to all for giving us a reason to travel and taking us to some unique places up in the amazing Victorian high country.

I would recomend to anyone and everyone to travel and let the caches guide you thoughout the mountains.

At time of Caching I Was Know As "adrian.robinson" / "ar", Due To Facebook Automatic Naming and now known as "VicMap", Much shorter and easier to write.

Found with S.Piddy, roverman88, ashleigh.green, Jesstu666 and team purple pen.

02-Feb-13
The team of Geo_Eddie and Dad found ourselves with 3 hours to kill while the better half of McAdies was at her sisters baby shower. We did a mini tour of the area finding a few caches along the way.
A beautiful afternoon to spent with my son geocaching.
There were some people fishing but we managed to look for the cache OK.
Thanks for placing it.
 
02-Feb-13
I spent the afternoon with Dad and had a great time.
We found some cool caches and saw some cool spots.
Thanks to everyone for placing the caches.

Once again very angry at ourselves that we decided to leave the bicycles off the car today. Was a great location very picturesque, quite busy though so required a fair deal of patience on our parts. TFTC
 
Restricted look today as there was too many people around, will be back though, with my boat.

A great stop during our drive from Sydney to Melbourne for Christmas. We've never stopped into Seymour before, but we're glad we did this time around. The area seems to be popular with locals wanting to take a smoko or have a drink. No swaps, but did see the 'corpse' of an interesting bug before we left.
 
16-Dec-12
Driving from Melbourne to West Wyalong today on the way to QLD this was our first 'stop to stretch our legs' cache. Very nice little spot we wouldn't have known was there if not for the cache. Thanks! Smile
Found after a couple of false starts and a drive by from the boys in blue. Nice to see they patrol the area lol
Somehow we missed the other two in the area, must have forgotten to put them in the GPS the night before Sad
 
01-Dec-12
Another one cleaned up in Seymour, got on the way to Kilmore for lunch... TFTC
 
29-Nov-12
Our last for the day on our trip south. Nice and hot here today, about 40 degrees. Nice easy find.
 
21-Nov-12
Found with my brother The Talent while nightcaching. TFTC =D
 
21-Nov-12
Im sure if we had attempted this cache during the day, it would have been much easier. It wasn't too tough, but took a couple of minutes. I think the co-ords are just a little bit out, but that could be my GPSr.
 
18-Nov-12
micheena - driving home from a four day weekend at Somers, and thought about cleaning up caches in the area, we had trouble with muggles last visit.
 
17-Nov-12
Found and logged at 10:30

Nice good one. Not as obvious as you think. TFTC

1761st cache found by WazzaAndWenches.

Well the NZ Mega is over and Waz and the Wenches are heading back to Christchurch to catch a plane.

I first stopped to look for this cache about two years ago but was muggled out by a persistent lurker. Today the area was deserted and the cache was found quickly by following the flattened path through the grass.

Thank you Redtanker.

Mein erster cache in Australien! Danke! Welch ein schöner Platz!
My first cache in Australia. Thanks! What a nice place!

Another on my cache run

Called in on our way through Seymour. An easy find in a lovely spot, but it took us a while to get the mozzies out of the car afterwards. They must have been all over us. TFTC
 
13-Oct-12
Quick find once we widen our search area. Then an even quicker sign of the log as we raced back to the car so the mozzies didn't get too much blood! Thanks for the cache.

#1270 5th of 8 for the day while travelling up to Nagambie. Nothing obvious where my GPSr wanted me to look so I widened the search and found the cache safe and dry 12m away. My geodog enjoyed the location and the break from sitting in the car. Thanks again Redtanker.
