We were worried it would've been lost with all the brush and cut down trees. It was a surprisingly quick find though!
Nice little hide, S_d found it within 20 seconds, dont know how because its very dark and it blends in well TFTC
I sent two tennis balls home around here and found the cache as well, thanks.
Found, was really fun, in a very obvious place which makes you look stupid haah
No luck finding this after parkrun this morning. Could just be obscured by my panting fog!Photo for CO in case this has been interfered with by fallen tree
Couldn't find. Don't know if fallen trees made it more difficult or im just blind
Fallen down tree confused us as we weren’t sure if the cache in that tree. The fact that no one found has found it since it was replaced didn’t give a us any more hope.
Unpacked my kit and have some time off later this week to get out there and check on this one
Hi jusojara,
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.

Several felled trees in the vicinity as well as large branches on the ground. Needs a check in.
Just started my son on this and forgot to bring a pen but it is no longer on the ground
Bit wary of all the spider webs to really explore the area thoroughly enough. Will try again another time.
I found it on the ground. The container has been crushed, it has no lid and the log is saturated but I managed to scratch my name on it. Its no longer looking up but you need to look down. I tried to hide it as best I could.
We've ventured past this location once before but didn't bother hunting because of the nearby tennis players. This time around, we took a bit of time at GZ scouting out possible spots. After a long-ish search we had the cache in hand. At least we could watch the nearby tennis aficionados. Thanks for the sneaky hide. Container has seen better days but the log is all good.
In the area finding another cache, when we thought we would pop by and find this one. Easy find, though the container has seen better days, with no lid.
Thank you
Thank you
Signed dsd or darksidedan or Adventure Boys or AB to save space in the logbook. Thanks for the cache and the adventure.
I decided to stop by for this find on my way from A to B this cool summer afternoon.I found the container rather quickly, which was a relief because after seeing some of the photos, I was in fear of coming face to face with one of the inhabitants! There was a lively match being played on the far court, so no fear of being watched by muggles.
Log was signed and container replaced as found with a little coverage to hopefully protect from further rain. TFTC.

Found on ground, this is in pretty bad shape. Managed to sign log but needs replacement probably, thanks!
Spent the morning finding caches around the northern side of town. This one found without issue right on GZ, thanks jusojara.
Another day grabbing a few suburbs for the Canberra Mapping Challenge - up in the north west this time, some of the furthest caches from home so it's a bit of a trip to get up that way and find them. Today we targeted Macgregor, Latham and Holt - with a walk around the Umbagong District park, which I had never heard of before.
Unfortunately, when we arrived in the area, I discovered that the pen in my pocket was not in my pocket, so I took pics of the logs instead - hopefully that is acceptable to the Cache Owners
I plotted a route which would find a cache ( or more) in each suburb, and also give the geopoodle a good leg stretch as we explored the park.
This was number one for the day, and it took a little more headscratching, but we did find it in the end - right in plain sight.
The log is definately in need of some maintenance - soggy and full
Thanks for the Cache jusojara

We found it with emerald and obsidian. It was hard but fun. When we where looking through the posts, we saw the picture of the spider emerald got scared. But we still found it!
It tells you its in one place and then when you get to that place it tells you it's were you just were you cane from
Third for the day , finally , a few years ago could not find it got this time with geo son. Thanks for the find still needs maintenance.
TFTC the hint made lead me straight to it after wondering around for a while trying not to look like a weirdo i completely forgot my pen so i couldnt log
There's something therapeutic about geocaching at night...until you almost put your hand on the cache guardian!!! ️ TFTC!
Great hide introduced my friend to geocaching and this was our first stop- took way longer than expected but got him addicted
An interesting find this morning! When I got to gz, I immediately spotted the cache, taking it down, signing the log (which was difficult due to its sogginess), and replacing it. I walked about a metre and saw what looked like another cache on the ground. I picked it up and looked inside, finding the log I opened (with much drier paper) to find at the top of this one was "Game, set, match"! So if this was the cache I had been looking for, what was the other one I'd just signed? I thought it could have been for a different game of geocaching, but upon carefully opening the fragile log in the first cache, I could see that it was headed "Game Piece" and had geocaching.com on it. Nothing came up in the search, but maybe it's an old one that was archived. So I placed both back where they belong, having signed the right one!
Thanks!
Thanks!
Today was a pleasant sunny day and perfect for a 'top down' trip across Belconnen picking up some the of the new caches placed since my last trip, as well as some of the puzzles that have finally been solved.
All caches found without too much fuss, being on the coordinates. I was surprised at the age of some of them.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache

Was visiting friends in Holt, so decided to do a quick side trip to nab a cache for streak week. Was afraid that I might not find it in the dark. With the floodlights on it was hard to be inconspicuous, but it was a very fast find, though I needed a torch to illuminate the shadows against the big lights.
