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 %d% 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.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.
I am 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 page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Has been wet for months. Owner seems to have abandoned cache.
 
14-Dec-13
Cache was full of water. Emptied it out and dried as best we could.
Added a piece of paper and sealed it in 2 clip-lock bags. Let's see if that keeps the water out and the log dry.

Found it! Took a little while as the powerlines made the GPS not too sure of where it was going either! Geocache was very, very wet. All the logs were soaked and couldn't sign visit, so added new zip lock bag with paper to register our visit. Dried it out as best we could.
Took plastic coin for the kids and left bead necklace.
Thanks for the cache.

30-Nov-12
I seem to have missed logging this one. I found it on a freaky Friday hunt with IolantheK. We were out to find my 2000th cache and attend an event here in Toowoomba. I seem to remember that we had a bit of a hunt for this one Wink
 
30-Nov-12
Back in Toowoomba again on another Mad Friday with teamdfl Big Grin

Lots of open space here, and a couple of possible hiding spots. Took us a while to zero in, and dfl made the find, although she got a bit scratched for her efforts. TFTC, JJMax.
 
23-Nov-12
Even allowing for all the overhead interference, the co-ords put us right on top of where we needed to be. Love the concept of the "free mulch" that Ergon put out for community groups, though I don't think the guy with the 4wd and trailer was a community group.

Also saw an enormous hare in the caged area, but he looks healthy enough.

This one was little difficult to find but i did use it to introduce a friend to geocaching.
It was about 10-15 minutes of scrambling about wheni came up with the goods.

Whenever i introduce someone to caching i try "let" them find the cache but i cant help myself and end up grabbing it....Smile

Very well hidden! TFTC
 
21-Sep-12
#3033 We ha to find a place o park the NotSoNinjaGolf then we walked the balance of the way to GZ. The overhead wires were causing the GPSr's to be erratic at times but we manage our way to GZ in perhaps a not so direct route (would've been amusing to anyone looking on). Our thanks to JJMax for the cache - they are some big power lines!
 
10-Sep-12
Open space but camouflaged nicely. GPS still accurate within a couple meters despite power lines. TFTC.
 
04-Sep-12

30-May-12
A nice walk from the caravan park, along the footpath led us to the cache. An easy find.
The gardens & water ways are really relaxing & many muggles walk here. There are exercise machines also placed along the track if you have the desire to use them.
Thanks for bringing us to this park JJMax
 
29-May-12
A DNF for us today but obviously it was hiding itself nicely as others have found it since we were there. Oh well. Can't win them all. Thanks anyway...eatmorchikin & Stigglepot
 
27-May-12
Finally, we can log this as a find, geowife found this one as well, she's getting good. Took a lot of looking around the same place. We all kicked ourselves when we found it. Took nothing, left our log.
 
26-May-12
Took us a while, maybe electro interference from overheads upset the GPS - left a lucky Chinese Feng Shui coin to keep the other one already there from getting lonely. TFTC. 2BluFish
 
21-May-12
Nice little cache Smile some of the things are a bit wet in there, but the log is dry. tftc!

Nice hide. Found with GreenFr0g. TFTC
 
09-May-12
Found with QueenEmmy. TFTC.
 
07-May-12
Searched near where GPS and compass told us but it wanted us to go into someone's house, so obviously wrong, will search across road later as muggles were working in the area.
 
An interesting location. I wonder if the owner knows that power lines affect gps signals
 
28-Apr-12
Our 100th!! The contents were wet, replaced container with a sistema clip lock and new log. Hopefully this will keep its contents dry. We have taken the wet logs home to dry and if salvageable will return them. Unfortunately the geocoin was not in the cache.

Log too wet to sign.

Container lid won't fit properly any more. Contents is a soggy mess and was full of bush cockies.
Surprising how well the GPS worked with all the power lines overhead.
 
10-Apr-12
Couldn't find this one.
