Logs
As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. 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/make available 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.
Came here a few weeks back and was unable to find. Thought I had logged a dnf at the time. As it is the closest unfound traditional near home, I thought I'd check the logs to see if anybody had had any luck since, nobody seems to have found it.
Will check in every now and again.

Looked at this one a couple of weeks ago. Looked everywhere ,used two gps but no luck. Looks like recent work has been done on the retaining wall and I think the cache has been covered or removed
Had time to look through where Mr Garmin and the clue directed me, but to no avail. Muggled?
gps was playing up and it was getting dark however we did find this eventually
found with pgriff and joshgreenbulls

it was getting towards the end of a big day of caching and this one proved to be a lot more aggravating than it should have been. got it eventually though, tftc!
Last day off before returning to the grind - how to spend the afternoon? Caching of course
Afternoon wearing on, so a nice simple walkby and signing was nice. And was almost gone before resident puppies noticed.

Tried for this one before the dogs alerted everyone of our presence, so today very carefully approached, and was able to find without the hounds aware of being there, all quiet. TFTC
Find #100. Found 21/11/11 @1235.
What to do on our day off? I know - lets grab some of those suburban caches that are easier during the week. This was the second. Always feels a little weird rummaging around this close to someone's fence. I even think that someone was home, but managed a quick find/sign/replace despite walking straight past it first up!

Found with 3 thug looking cachers up the lane thankfully no neighbours rang the cops
Found on a sunny Sunday geocaching day with sniffme, maxxdog and Daz. TFTC!
Took grasshopper to find a new home. Left a golf ball to fill the void.

=) found and replaced with only 3 dogs barking at me in the process... thanks for the cache, nice little lane for it =)
Our first find and just at the end of our street. This has started the family on the Goecaching trail. Have taken the travel bug to assist Red Roo on his way. Left a dinosaur. TFTC.
Nice easy find while we were in the area today. No fence-dwelling neighbours to give me grief, luckily. TNLN Thanks froginasock
this was the second attempt. Last time someone was working on the other side of the fence. Nice quick snatch and grab.
Quick find before taking my buddy fisherw0man off to her first full day's caching
The dogs were quiet... I could hear them sniffling on the other side of the fence tee hee!
Container isn't keeping out the water, but at this stage the log is still usable

Our first Geocache ever!! We LOVE this cache because it was 10 steps from our front door! Easy to find at night with a torch! We're addicted. :I Thanks to the owner of the little blue car and thanks to creator of this cache!

Ha,ha - my prediction was wrong, my previous was not the 'last' cache for 2010. Nor was this.
So many little pathways wending their way through Albany Creek - would be fun to find every one. TFTC!

I'm not very good at the public ones! I get nervous and feel like I'm being dodgy. I hope this improves as I do this more often.
Thanks for the cache Froginasock, this find makes me reach my 50th find milestone . Found with Ferrarista on a lovely sunny Saturday morning out geocaching.

This lane felt a bit claustrophobic on a quiet day. Could hear a very large animal, a dog snuffling on the other side of the fence. Was waiting for it to explode. TFTC
Last day in wet Brissy, and time to pick up another 30 or so caches to get to find 7400.
Thanks for the cache, and for bringing me here.

The dog barked once

After having been muggled out of the other one, I managed to find this one after a short search, and a good sniffing from that dog under the fence - didn't bark though!
The first Morgans' Lane gave us some trouble with a very noisy dog but this one was a nice find, in and out quick. TFTC!
This was cache # 30 of 32 on day three of my Brisvegas Tour. I was glad for a nice quick find on this one as the local dog was going nuts, have to admit that this type of location is not my favorite. My thanks to Froginasock for the cache.
This one made me feel a little easier than the other cache in the series. Found it with not much problem. Heard some foreign folks having a chat - but I was as quiet as a church mouse. While replacing the cache, I heard an inquisitive sniffing from the other side of the fence that gave me a bit of a start. No barking though! TFTC Froginasock!
After a successful hunt on the first of these caches, this was soon to follow. The dog on the other side of the fence knew I was there and had a bark or two but soon gave it away and figured he was better of trying to sniff under the fence rather than suffer the wrath of his owner if he continued... While he sniffed, I hunted and found the container in a nice little hidey hole... [^]
Cheers froginasock.
Cheers froginasock.
Looked for a short while, but the dog on the other side of the fence didn't like us there and he was getting in trouble for barking, so decided to leave.
Thought I was going to have the same problem at number 2 as I did number 1, but this dog just sniffed me through the fence, muggles on the other side were in their garden talking really loud but couldn't see me through their fence, TFTC
GPS didn’t like this area – got confused. However, finally found the access lane and GZ. Lots of bricks in this wall but finally found the right one. Good hide.
Thanks

Found cache nice hide... had one muggle came through with dogs... Met with team keir and their Geo-Daughter found cache. TNLN TFTC
This woz my final cache for the night. I followed my gps 2 the top of the laneway n looked down. The first part woz fine, but further down, bushes blurred the fenceline, and the overhanging trees cast dark shadows over the path. A small chill went down my spine. It looked a little bit scary. I sat in the car for a few minutes, deciding if i woz still going to do this one. All woz quiet. Eventually i thought i'd give it a go. I started off fine, but as i approached the shadows, dead leaves and grit littered the path and began crunching under my shoes, deafeningly loud in the silence. I woz very close to where i needed to be when suddenly, barking eurrupted from the other side of the fence. It scared the bejesus outta me. A voice called to the dog, so i continued on towards the light at the end of the laneway. Now, concealed by the very shadows that had caused me some concern earlier, i waited while i weighed up my options. I decided to go back and try again. I removed my shoes in the hope that my footsteps would be quieter. This time, as i neared GZ there was nothing. I quickly started searching, the dry leaves rustling as i hunted around. The dog woz back, but this time, quiet as a mouse. I whispered a friendly greeting, told him what i woz doing, and that everything woz alright, and he just sat there. My hand closed around the cache and as quickly as i could, signed the log (@ 8-39pm). I returned it to it's hiding spot and made a quick exit up the laneway. TFTC Froginasock
I found myself driving along the road that goes straight past this cache and I couldn't possibly pass it by without stopping. A quick find and replace. TFTC
Found easily and replaced about 30 seconds before a muggle family wandered up the lane. The dog knew I was there but kept quiet, despite the fact I had my own geohound along with me. TNLNSL. TFTC!
After a foiled attempt last year, we were back to try this one again. Found quickly with very little noise from hound behind the fence, thank goodness! TFTC froginasock
Seventh find of 13 caches today. The dog was out and with its owner on the other side of the fence directly opposite GZ, so I had to walk up the other end of the lane until they went inside so that I could retrieve the cache. Grabbed the trackables.

361 - Found this one easily at 3:57pm. Yap another dog greeted us at GZ. TFTC Froginasock.
Aborted as Sunday did not seem to be the day to attempt this with canines and muggles a-plenty. We will go back on a week day sometime.
Dog and kids nearly spoiled this one but we grabbed the cache and moved up the lane a bit then returned it on our way back to the car TNLNSL TFTC
A short search and I had the cache. Nice friendly dog nearby, didn't bark much. TFTC Froginasock
Good quick find, nice and quiet this afternoon.

Seventh and the last for the day. Had a great time with the Geowifw and no Geokids today. A every rare thing at times. TNL Compass Button SL TFTC
The dog was barking. Found quickly, signed log and got out of there as soon as we could.
Finaly we found it on our second attempt. Sent Ogre 1 & 2 down and they came back with the prize.

Encountered yapping dogs at this one, and having heard the owners talking to them, can understand why they would be neurotic. Soon had the cache in hand. TFTC
Quick find today by the Downey Clan.
Ignored the yappers and got the job done.

At 15:45: After much searching under the barrage of yapping on #1 we gave up there. Decided to walk here to #2. This time the yapping barrage was even more disturbing as it was accompanied by its owner asking the dog what was the matter and we gave up here too. Decided to have one more quick look at #1 and got it. Then as we started to drive off we decided on one more quick look here. Cyndi persisted and got it! Having investigated under every heap of lawn clippings she now smells like a compost heap!
TN/L crocheted hairpin. Thanks again Froginasock.

Not for the pride today. Dam dog dam little ogres talking.
Alot of grass clippings around made it hard also.
We will be back, Or should I say I'll be back as I don't talk to myself out loud.

This cache offered a little more concealment than the one down the road, but it didn't take long before the mutt sent out his alarm that someone was walking beside his property.
Luckily it was found as a walk by, so I signed the log at the end of the path, then replaced the cache on the way out. TFTC
Dogs and owner were trying hard to investigate what was going on beyond their fence. They must be starting to wonder why people keep congregating in the lane. TFTC.
I had to operate in full stealth mode this afternoon as both dog(s) and owner were just on the other side of the fence.
Thankfully another quick find. Found the cache dry and in good condition.
Thanks

Dog and owner were making a racket on the other side of the fence...

Quick find, but as I signed the log, the two dogs on the other side of the fence discovered me acting suspiciously. They created merry hell until their owner came out. I was just replacing the cache when I heard him asking them what they'd found "over there". Geez I hate dogs on the other side of a fence at GZ. TN/LN and vanished the way only a cacher can when the jig is up. They seek him here, they seek him there ... .
After we found Morgan's Lane, we moved and found this one quickly. Geoson went hunting and found it first looksee, while I was busy digging around in the foliage. Did a swap - TFTC!
I think La Kedi had this one in hand before we even got to the bottom of the lane!!! TFTC
La Kedi had the cache out and signed whislt Dizzyanne and I were still eyeing the washout from the recent storms. TFTC
An easy walk past and grab. Kept walking while signing the log and then a quick walk past to replace it.
