Hi seedy stuart,

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 30 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 30 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.

100% lost but still had fun searching around

Hi The cache has been missing for over 8 months now and the CO has not logged onto the Geocaching.com site since November 2019, It seems very unlikely that they will ever replace this cache

This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.

This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.

Did not find, but nice island tho. TFTGI

No luck

Had a good look for this one, looked with Jet who found it a long time ago. Think it's gone swimming. ️

No luck for us here today. No cache, no pelican poo. But it was a beautiful, sunshiny day and we arrived at GZ at low tide. What a gorgeous little place. Thanks for being us here anyway. Cheers... Gaztek

Trash house

ahahaha

Found after a few minutes with geo brother-in-law TFTC JenneG and Budgy.

Down with friends to escape the Campbelltown heat. Storm came over so the busy area turned very quite. So started off on the way of the cache.

Always a bonus to find a cache when out and about. A nice wade over. Was looking for something a different size and a jumpy gps but finally found with the rest of the caching friends.

After a nice swim with the geo crew we realised this cache was just sitting there begging to be found. Off we went for a nice wade to the little island and a relatively quick find. We were looking for a regular sized cache but found the container was much smaller. All good - a cache is a cache! TFTC

Our new etrex was very accurate here. Just as well, as we expected a regular and not a MICRO. TFTC

Last cache for the year and wanting to get a souvenir. Passed this cache at the right moment, low tide. Have passed this location many times and the tide has not been in my favour. A quick walk across and i was at GZ. After a few minutes hunting around cache and smile was soon mine. TFTC

TFTC wasn't planning on finding this but as I was here at it was low tide I couldn't pass on it. Easy find

Awesome location. Delicious find.

Found with Lucky Cricket and Little Cricket. A great adventure on a nice day. smaller cache then expecting but still fun. TFTC

Found with Little Cricket and 007Mushu. The tide was a bit low today. I used to hire paddle boats here when I was a kid when visiting my Grandma nearby, I was hoping they would have them here still, although I enjoyed watching the kite boarding, would love to have a go at that someday. Great hide and cache TFTC

Great hide enjoyed watching kite surfers, Found with Lucky Cricket and 007 mushu, TFTC

TFTC nice day

Back to find a previous dnf of ours! Much more successful this time! TFTC!

Gotcha TFTC

Avenging my night time DNF! Found is straight away.... how didn’t I find that before.... with Scotty tee

DOing with Wheatz

Night time.... couldn’t find... might try again in daylight

I have found that cache

Found while OCW *Throsbyonchurch* and *Little Kitten* TFTH

Found -- 12:40pm -- Thanks for the hunt and Thanks for bringing us here to this location Seedy Stuart.

**Cache Condition:** Good.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.
**Trackables:**

I guess there is no need leaving a long message here seeing as *Seedy Stuart* appears to no longer be caching.

11 = 11 0 0 [8)] not attempted.

I have been eyeing the land mass of this cache for a while, i noted the sneaky low tide when i left work and made my way over to the cache for a brief search and a smiley find

As we were walking away found back of cache on ground back on ground. Went back and fixed cache

Took a bit but finally located

Not a 3rd size. We found it.

Scratching around like old chooks soon had in Hannover area

Was looking around the wrong tree at first and wondering what I was doing wrong. It was a pleasure to visit Pelican Poo Island. TFTC.

Nice little trek out to the other side of the island

Found with Princess Izzy our in the open but replaced more inline with the hint but guarded by wood. Log in great condition. TFTC.

Found cache, great for kids - first find for the 3 year old! Tftc

Tftc found at low tide! SL

Found it

Very cool! found easily

Great Walk on the Island, been wanting to find this one for a while. It’s only an XS container now though for anyone with minicachers excited about swaps like mine, bit of a let down.

TFTC

Unfortunately my pen didn't work when I signed the log. Hopefully a couple of photos will suffice. TFTC. Nice area but a shame about all the rubbish. Can provide more photos as evidence if required.

Arrived last night from New Zealand. A gentle morning bike ride before heading off to the Australian MTB orienteering champs at Wingello.

Found safe in its perch. but my bloody pen didn't work! Photo. With GeoDog for proof

Tftc... shoes got a little wet but geokids enjoyed jumping in the water

Tftc. Easy find. Was just on the ground in full view. It's now off the ground snuggly.

A bit of a challenge on a windy winters day with the tide coming in and a 6 year old keen for the hunt. Leaving our shoes in the car was probably not the best idea for the terrain and turns out the lake side of the island was easier on the feet on the return trip. Found the container on the ground full of salt water, obviously washed around at high tide, so we left it secured above water level. The log was dry in its tube but my pen chose now to run out so attached a pic as proof. Grandson enjoyed the whole thing including collecting shells and leaving HELP messages in the sand. TFTC.

Stopped in and found this cache a few weeks ago but I missed to log it til now.
Thanks Seedy Stuart for the cache

We covered it up, just sitting out in the open

Cache #80 for TSthreeBees
With Jackobi1611 today. Beautiful place.

Cache replaced due to high number of DNFs. Thankyou for the great views of the lake

Good timing with the tide found with cullum68 thanks for the cache

No luck... possibly taken by floods??

Needs to be checked by CO please...

Unfortunately DNF...

2 of us searching for a while. island full of rubbish and lots of stuff washed up. found the plank and a pencil but nothing else

No cache unfortunately. Thanks anyhow

Not here

The grass area was very wet and like a swap I'm assuming this one has been moved due to the weather

A bit dangerous with the hot weather

I agree with the last log. The island looks flood damaged. A good chance that the cache is out near New Zealand by now.

Cache has apparently been washed away in the recent storm event. Needs checking on.

Signed back in to the gc website. Backlogging a majority of finds over the last year. Started my own account and it's time to sync it out. To avoid confusion I wont change the date logged. Send me an email (via profile link) or a message in the message centre (also via profile link) if you have any concerns.

Second time lucky. I decided to try this one again with my little 4 year old at low tide. She helped me find the cache and afterwards we played in the water with crabs and shells for hours. TFTC

Was looking around for a bit! But 'planking' helped!! tfyc

Great hide. Found while we had a spot of fishing. Took travel bug.

Excellent little cache!

After a while of searching, gave up to take some 'planking' photos, nearly fell onto it TFTC

Enjoyed the walk along the sand around the island, then slipped away into the greenery to look for the cache. Came up short till Davaura Inc spotted it accidentally! tftc and the nice walk to GZ

Held on to travel bug too long, finally placed in a cache we hope will lead to final destination of France.

Finally!
Took 2 goes, my phone puts me about 5m away from GZ.
Found by my 10 year old Geoson!
Lovely spot, went for a swim after the find.
Tftc

It took me a while as my GPS kept changing its location. When the GPS finally settled down the cache was located. It has been a while since I was last in Windang - back in my childhood so it was nice to return after many many many years. TFTC.

Find Number 3347

The Booo's found this cache!

With the nearby picnic table occupied and the tide out we headed over after to looking for a larger container. Soon had cache in hand and log signed. Swapped TBs

Thanks seedy stuart for placing this cache

Found with the booos TFTC

After a DNF at Adrenalin Addiction - Water, I came here to pick this one up - seeing as I was already wet and close. I wasn't going home without at least 1 find today.

Found this one straight away, signed log and dropped TB - suitable.
TFTC

Was nice to cool my feet on the walk over after doing Almost Destroyed Earth Cache on Wingdang Island on Earth Cache Day...left a little courage...Thank you Pelican Poo...Jet...

Searched gz for a while and wasn't able to find it:(

Looked again, no luck!
Is it still at GZ?

Cache all good. Size not quite right. Tftc.

Searched no luck.
GZ looks to have been underwater, ? Needs replacing.

Explaining geocaching to a family at the nearby kiosk. Tide was nice and low so perfect opportunity to grab this one. TFTC.

Through spiders and mud then .... oh... i can walk around tftc

This island is larger than I thought! I found the cache out in the open - I suspect washed out of its spot in the recent bad weather. I put it back in what I hope is the right place. On the way back the tide had turned and it was a bit splashier than the walk over. Left a domino. TFTC.

Following a find on 4/3/15 and seeing the state of the cache I took it upon myself to replace it. This is a great location so I have replaced the container and the log in the interests of keeping this one going. The original information published about the cache hasn't changed. Happy caching...Aries44.

I hope the CO doesn't mind that I have "fiddled" with his cache.

It was low tide when I visited so I didn't get wet. Approached from the wrong side and retraced my steps to go the long way around. Spent around 10 minutes looking and finally located the "container less cache". The hint is no longer applicable for the present cache.
I signed the piece of paper left by the previous finders, however it is as wet as the rest of the items in the bag.

Definitely needs attention.

TFTC seedy stuart.

Found with The Hancock Clan and Delloro. As they have said, all that remains is the zip-loc bag a soggy log & wet pen.
Signed a fresh piece of paper & returned the log to where we thought it had a chance of staying a bit drier.

Really does need some maintenance.

Took advantage of low tide to find this one with the Hancocks and Usat31.

In dire need of a new container

TFTC

We found a ziplock bag with a pen & the soggy logbook in. As it was undoubtedly the remains of the cache we signed our names on a fresh piece of paper and replaced the bag with the contents in. This one desperately needs a maintenance visit.
Cheers,
The Hancock Clan

Had a good search around couldn't find this one

After having put this one off for too many years, it was still not the cache I planned to grab today but with the tide on my side (indicated by the number of muggles on the island as I drove past), this ended up being an easier find and more pleasant experience for a beach walk. Log in desperate need of maintenance and a waterproof container.

Log too wet to sign. Great cache and a lovely spot. Tftc!

Thanks so much for the cache its been horribly burnt
