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.

Thanks for the cache........The log was soaking wet and I had no paper in my car to replace it...Sorry! i did leave a dolphin in the cache just to prove I had been there..."Go safe"

What a great little hide!!!

We looked everywhere and close to giving up actually stumbled upon it.

Just maybe change the container to one that has a better seel as the log inside it was wet and we could not sign our name.

thanks

How clever. We were glad to add this one to our 'finds'. Thanks Caching Cameron's for an ingenious cache.
 
01-Jul-12
clever
 
01-Jul-12
A great cache in a top spot. Lots of pelicans sitting on the jetty beyond the locked gate. Log drenched so added a piece of paper with our name but that probably won't last long either. Thanks.

Took a while to find, but eventually got out hands on it. Very wet inside and only a soggy log inside. May be able to do repairs later.

Visiting from the UK with my brother, who found this one. Great hide, worth a favourite, many thanks
 
20-Jan-12
Outstanding camo, put a new clear plastic bag in to protect notepaper (old one had holes in it), very well done, thank you! Smile
 
08-Jan-12
a bit of work to make this one .
Well done.
 
06-Jan-12
Return visit, taking a tour of the area with six junior geocachers. This one is a beauty, and never fails to impress.
 
02-Jan-12
found by very little geo nephew who yelled it out at the top of his lungs hahaha
 
31-Dec-11

'Just 1 more day in Albany' Thanx for all the awesome caches
 
28-Nov-11
Well tried hard not to look suspicious as muggles wete exercising muggle-dogs in the area. Ingenious camo! Tftf!
 
27-Nov-11
Loved this one. Spent 5 minutes walking around it before I noticed...
Log was wet so left a new one.
 
23-Nov-11
Not a fisherman in sight today. After checking some of the promising spots around GZ without luck we were standing scratching our heads when we spotted a suspicious area and bingo.
Thanks Caching Camerons

Well we arrived in Albany last night all set to start our munzee run (www.munzee.com) and find some remaining caches in Albany. Checked the weather forecast and could not believe our eyes. Forecast for rain (that we expected when we visit Albany) but thunderstorms! Geez they've outdone themselves this time.

Arrived at GZ and it was raining so Mr Felix jumped out to search alone, he was soon back at the car asking what he was actually looking for? The rain had slowed down so we both recommenced searching. Discussion soon followed over what we would do if it was our cache and sure enough voile, the cache was very quickly in hand!

Great hide. Almost missed it thinking another clever place was it but empty. Thanks.
 
Clever hide. Almost missed it because something else looked like a clever hide and had no cache. Everything was wet. I took the list out and replaced it with dry paper in a plastic bag. It was a warm sunny day so the geocache notice was almost dry by the time I dawdled about. A new one might still be good. I have the lists which are now dry so will try to drop them back in, manana. Thanks for a great adventure.
 
27-Aug-11
Needed to come back a second time as there were too many muggles around. Found after a short search however could not fill in log as it was very damp - it was falling apart. Great camo though. very clever.
 
20-Aug-11
That was a great hide! Very well done.
 
20-Aug-11
While two of the team members tried their hand at some fishing, the rest of the Albany Canucks scoured the surrounds for this sneaky little camo. It took us a good 10-15 minutes, although largely because GZ was about 4m away for us. When we widened the search area, our 9 year old junior lass was most pleased to be first to locate the cache, and we all took our turns to admire its ingenuity! What a beauty it is, one of the better camos out there for sure! Sadly the soggy paper was too wet to sign, so it may need some minor maintenance, but aside from that everything looks great. Bravo indeed! TFTC.
 
09-Aug-11
Me and my dog found this clever cache had to wait for a muggle cutting the grass to finish his job enjoyed the cache thanks Camerons
 
29-Jun-11
Needs attention ... All wet! TFTC Smile Very clever
 
23-Jun-11
When we pulled up there were a few muggles around so we didn't have high hopes of getting this cache. We walked towards the pier (which was locked), and watched the huge flocks of birds that had made it home today. We noticed we were very close to GZ, then Feathertop spotted the neat hide.
With the guise of taking photos we removed and signed the log.
Thanks, Robmc.
 
23-Jun-11
What a stunning hide. I have not seen this done before and it is very effective.
Rob was off photographing the mass of waterbirds on the jetty while I made the discovery.
100th find of the day, unchartered waters for us!
Hope this one is never found by muggles
 
19-Jun-11
Great cache. Easy find by geokid. Tftc
 
19-Jun-11
TFTC!! Great hide!!!
 
08-May-11
cache perfection,this one was our first find ever! and one to be remembered
 
23-Apr-11
Very clever and well hidden, but spectacular views and for our first cache I'm glad we had a friend who knew where it was and indicated that the location was a little inaccurate.
 
23-Apr-11
Took a while but eventually found it, really fun find.
 
22-Mar-11
Love it. Well hidden.Been past it many times as a muggle.
 
19-Mar-11
Very clever hide. TFTC
 
14-Mar-11
Very clever cache found by Mr Bushies2. Thanks Caching Camerons for the great cache.
 
08-Mar-11
In the company of Roader, quickly spotted it and had to wait until the fisherman returned to his car before we can retrieved it quickly. It was good one. Thanks for the cache.
 
06-Mar-11
Nice work.
 
05-Mar-11
Very nicely done Caching Camerons, Luckily Mr AusTrackers was on the ball and found it very quickly. We watched the pelicans for a while. TFTH
 
02-Mar-11
Sad
 
29-Jan-11
This is a great hide!! Took advantage of the bad weather and had no muggles to contend with. TFTC
 
29-Jan-11
Could do with a new log sheet and the water has gotten in at some time. Dry today though.
 
06-Jan-11
Reperio at 1830. This was a really nice scenic spot that would be a hit with anyone who loves the water. The very nice cache was quickly found by Darwinian as we watched the onslaught of seagulls camped out on the jetty.

Very nice hide.

Gratias.
 
29-Dec-10
probably one of my favourite cache finds yet, it took some time especially with all the nooks and cranys in the area, the girls wanted to give up lol, but with my addicted lust for the game i spent a few more minuets searching like a mad man and it payed off, made me quiet pleased with myself as i teased the girls about the find "ner ner" Very Happy

btw the pencil sharpener has been a victim of good ol' salt corrosion

Cheers

Geokid found this nifty cache, thanks very much Smile
 
04-Dec-10
My young daughter found this one, which turned out to be right under our nose.
 
12-Oct-10
Very, very easy, found it strait away,
 
02-Oct-10
It took another look with help from fellow geocache member, Muggles have no idea
 
05-Sep-10
Very Clever! never a dull moment whilst caching - had to call the police at this spot as witnessed a hit and run! tftc
 
24-Aug-10
Thanks Camerans i've got two of yours now. I've walked over this so many times before i knew the game. Very good camo.
 
21-Aug-10
We spent a while scratching our heads on this one but finally found it right where it was supposed to be! Very Cleaver a great effort....got to love Albany Cachers.
 
21-Aug-10
Looked for 1 hour, but did not find
 
14-Aug-10
Yeah finally, I will confess that it took me 4 visits to finally have the place to myself long enough to find this one. What a brilliant hide, excellent, this cache had the old brain working overtime to try and 'see' it.

Just a note: the log sheet is damp.
 
10-Jun-10
Very clever hide, loved the camo on this one. Had us beat the first time, went away and thought about it, and than it was a quick find. TFTC
 
31-May-10
Couldn't find this one yesterday when we went out. Will try again on the weekend. Geowife and myself spent 1/2 hour looking, before calling it a day. We will be back, wont let it beat us.
 
29-May-10
thanks for the cache, had us stumped for a while but with a little bit of help we found it. Smile
 
02-May-10
no luck this time, maybe next time
 
24-Apr-10
Found when out with senn corp - really clever hide. TNLNSL
 
23-Apr-10
Sneaky, took geowife to notice this one. Well done on an excellent hide. TNLN. TFTC.
 
27-Mar-10
Very tricky and a very HARD spot to find. Thanks for the hint mr C C
 
27-Mar-10
Anything for Mr Cooper
 
14-Feb-10
Nicely hidden!
Found it pretty easy though, I think Im starting to think like Albany cachers Smile
TFTH
 
01-Jan-10
Must be very trickily hidden indeed. 5 of us couldn't find it!
 
03-Nov-09
This one sure was a doozey - had us going for quite a while before we spotted it. We liked it a lot. No one around to watch our antics thank goodness. A very lovely area. Thanks Caching Camerons
 
28-Sep-09
Had a quick go at this one on the way home and came across it after waiting a few minutes for a boatie to finish loading up and leaving.
Nicely done.

Very clever hide and well executed. #23 of 30 today.
 
09-Sep-09
Our very first find! After hunting numerous times for another one, we decided to try this and found it quickly. It has given my partner a new sense of adventure after this find. Look forward to many more in the future!
 
19-Jul-09
Ok we admit it; this wasn’t our first attempt to find this one. We looked for about an hour yesterday along with HowdyaB. Today it took about 5 minutes once we learned to trust the GPS. It was fun retrieving this while there was muggles fishing on the jetty, it made the find even more fun. I hope given the conditions of the terrain that this cache can remain intact.
Well done Caching Camerons
 
19-Jul-09
First visit spent ages looking but gave up.Lots of mugglers for such a cold wet day.
Went back couple days later with geo buddies and found it.
Bit hard to be discreet with mugglers around. TFTF
 
18-Jul-09
Nothin like a bit of pressure when all the other teams are sittin in the warm car watching you try and find something that have found before.
Thank God I wasn't out there too long before I had it *brrrrrrr* it is cold there. I like your work and I had to sit there for a bit and really apreciate your master peice. TFTC TNLNSL
 
15-Jul-09
awesome... really enjoyed finding this one - the camo is excellent. great job

11-Jul-09
this cache was extremely well constructed although found it fairly quick still love the area thanks caching cameros TFTF!!
 
05-Jul-09
The last one of 5 for the day, it was actually found by the Bottsbunch, while MaRJC was attending to new caching member T. What a brilliant camo though! Geocaching Granny Cameron was impressed too Smile
TFTH Smile
 
04-Jul-09
A good challenge at the end of the day. Two earlier visits in the day were both muggled, so we went off and did another two caches and called back just in case the fishers had gone home early. Albany nomads turned up as well and a team effort seemed doomed to fail until, at last it was revealed. Dylan & Chloe, Geopooch pals had a great time playing in the water.
 
04-Jul-09
Sneaky..but we found it with a joint effort from GR8T.
The 2 geocache dogs Dylan and Chloe weren't much chop on this visit as they were to interested in pelicans, chasing other dogs and playing in the sea weed.
 
04-Jul-09
What a brilliant camo. It took us two attempts and about an hour to find this one. We must have walked past it 20 times without seeing it. Great job c/c.
 
14-Jun-09
Very impressive. Bit of a mongrel day but the weather was not mentioned in the car on the way back only the quality of this cache.
This is a terrific job CC's, well done.
 
13-Jun-09
Well done Caching camerons!!!!!! Very impressive. We actually tried this earlier in the week but couldn't do any searching with school kids sitting on the jetty waiting for their parents to collect them. We waited and waited and it got dark and the school kids were still there so decided we would go and try again later but didn't get back again till today.
We looked and looked and then all of a sudden we all spied it at the same time and we are very impressed. Well done and we look forward to seeing more.

WOW i have never seen so many water birds in one spot and tehy were all on the jetty it was truly a site to see. SOme I had never ever seen before.

Found previously as one of the “Rainbow Coasters”.
 
09-Jun-09
First attempt by the female Coaster and son came up empty handed. Headed back a day later with the team in action and had the find within minutes. Made eaiser late in the afternoon when no fisher folk around and the coolness of the evening setting in. A cleverly hidden cache with a bit of thought behind it.

Well done "Caching Camerons", the art of camo caches is alive and thriving in Albany.
 
07-Jun-09
What a great debut cache by the Caching Camerons. Well done guys. We loved the location and actually enjoyed afternoon tea there first before beginning the hunt. And a delightfully tricky hunt it turned out to be, We look forward to more of this calibre
 
05-Jun-09
Another night time find. It took two goes. Guess I did not read carefully enough to see what size we were looking for as the options were vast. Back again a bit later armed with all the info, it was easier. Found by support crew after a good deal of hunting.Congratulations on your first cache hide. Keep them rolling as this was a clever hide. Second FTF for the day.TFTH
