###Cache Owner Action Needed###
This cache has been brought to my attention as likely to be missing.
After a string of successful Finds, it has now had a string of DNFs. I agree that this certainly suggests that something has happened at the cache location which requires investigation by the CO, OldSaint.

The cache will be disabled and I'll check back in 30 days to see if either

- the CO has checked or rectified the apparent problem
- the CO has communicated in a Note log here, when action will be taken

**If the CO has not taken either of these actions, then we can only assume that the cache has been abandoned and, regrettably, it will be archived.**

The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.

Thank you

This is the second time we have looked for this cache. We were convinced last time that it had gone due to renovations in the area. However given two others claimed it as a find we thought we would try our luck again. We think the last finder is bogus and once again we believe this cache to be no longer. It would be appreciated if you could confirm this Old Saint.

Looked all around. Previous logs suggested it was under a rock or leaf litter. It also looks like some earthworks have been right next to GZ recently.

In Tassie with family doing a short trip around this lovely island. We saw some amazing scenery, wildlife and visited some beautiful places while touring around in our motorhome. I took the opportunity to stop and grab any caches when we could stop. We only had a few DNF's and made some good discoveries and clever hides during the trip. We had some fun and laughs along the way.

Found it without the hint, as it is no longer relevant. Container and content were very wet.

Thanks OldSaint for placing the cache for us to find and doing the maintenance to keep it in play.

Thanks for the cache OldSaint. Today RLD4963, the GeoGSP and I headed out for a drive and a visit to Dunalley was included in the itinerary. This was our first stop in Dunalley, and the car park was nice and empty. Cache was found as described in previous logs. Cheers.

Well Monty, aka my GPSr, had me running in all directions for a while here. Eventually the GZ was locked in and the cache was found as others have said, buried under leaf litter. Log was signed, a TB left and all returned to the hiding place where I found it. Thanks for yet another cache OldSaint.

Tricky to find but with the effort.

Hi there OldSaint.

We found your cache **"14 4 9/18H-C2"** at 11:18:00 AM today. (This makes our grand total 18795).

Today we started our cache run in Dunally & worked our way North.. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour today & ended up finding a variety of container types, and sizes. Our cache count was 8 caches today, with 1 DNF's.

Thanks for placing this cache, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found this cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking. Wink
**Cache Condition:** Just another mint tin cache. The hint no longer applies.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

Well hidden was offered local help but I refused it, was tempted though.

Over the years, geocaching has taken me on many adventures, including interesting destinations all over my home continent of Australia and many overseas as well. It has also introduced me to a diverse group of like-minded caching tragics, many of whom I now call close friends.

Today, I was lucky enough to be out and about searching for caches, something I do on almost a daily basis. This was one cache that was targeted and found.

Sorry for the late and generic log, something I am notorious for. Thank you OldSaintfor adding to the adventure that is geocaching.

Not such a quick find at the perimeter of the golf course. I resorted to reading past logs and saw that the hint is no longer relevant.

This cache is on the ground, at the base of the tree under leaf litter, and yes, you are still looking for the cammo mint tin.

Today the aim was for me to visit the oldest Virtual in Tasmania (to fill a Jasmer square); for Gary to do some earth caches and for us to pick up other caches whilst exploring the little towns along the way.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What a most unexpected little get away.....I needed some R&R and the lovely micaparamedic needed to cache in Tassie to meet a challenge cache's requirements, soooo a plan was quickly hatched and we were on our way.

Gary was good enough to do all of the driving (a real treat for me) so I just relaxed as we explored various beautiful locations that Tassie has to offer.....and we even picked up a cache or two. Cool [^]

The weather was fantastic, the food was delicious, and I was delighted to catch up with some very special people that I love.

Thanks so much for the cache OldSaint! Smile

Found after some searching as hint through me off. Then a guy from the golf club came down asking what we're doing and I explained about Geocaching and it blew him away.

Two Norwegian travellers on vacation/geocaching in Australia. Travelling by car from Brisbane to Adelaide with stops in interesting and not so interesting places. We have been travelling almost 5000 kilometers before we returned the car in Adelaide two weeks ago. Then we flew over to Hobart, hired a new car and will do a Tassie roundtrip the next 2 weeks. We have done the big highlights, Cradle mountain Nat. Park, the northern coast and the big cities. Yesterday we arrived Bruny Island. Stayed overnight in a nice cottage. Next destination is the Tasman Peninsula and Port Arthur. Heavy rain during the night, but after we started the clouds are gone and the sun is shining.
No golfers out on the green today at 12 o'clock.
We found the cache, signed and placed it back.

Fortunately no need to go traipsing through the golf course here. Amazing scenery here, like almost all of Tassie so far! TFTC.

This cache is in much better condition than its counter part! We took the hint literally and searched for a while until I spotted something that once used to be at shoulder height so I searched it and came up with the goods. The only shoulder height this cache will reach now is that of a 4 legged variety! TFTC

TFTC. Loved the hiding spot. Great container. Nice quiet location.

TFTC! Came to Dunalley on a day trip from Eldee campsite (great place for glamping) and enjoyed a bit of camping while here. Cache in good condition. Nice location.
 
25-Sep-16
Another find on our way to Port Arthur for the day. This cache may need some attention. It is still connected, but the branch that it was on is no longer standing upright which makes the clue not so true. It would have been a well camouflaged cache in its rightful place
This was our 64th find in our 2 weeks of caching our way around Tasmania. Thanks for the fun
 
25-Sep-16
Was quite early in the day so no golfers around, just a muggle walking his dog but after discussing the weather with us he moved on and we could make an uninterrupted find. Just a note that the tree branch is now vertical so the clue no longer is suitable and the cache is very visible from a distance.
Thanks for the cache.

A quick easy find though we were expecting to see Muggles here. Plenty of cars but no Muggles. TFTC Smile
We're in the south again to visit and say goodbye to our family as we've now got only a week left of our six month stay from the Kurrajong area, (Blue Mountains) NW of Sydney. We've been touring in the caravan and also visiting with our kids and grandkids in the Huon Valley Smile
We've thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and I for one don't want to go home!

Searched the area, but sadly a DNF for us here today. [8)] Hopefully we were just cache blind again.Surprised

Thanks anyway OldSaint

Travelling around Australia and spending a few months in Tasmania.

Moving day today from Taranna to Dunalley. Lovely area and pleased to see it recovering from the 2013 fires.

We were unable to locate the old container but noted that the last found it log was October. Seems the perfect hide has been disturbed so after contacting Old Saint we have left a new cache nearby. New coords to be updated by CO.

TFTC OldSaint Cool

My grandad and I found this cache while on our second day of our Tasmania trip. We were travelling to Port Arthur and decided to stop off in Dunalley for some caches.

We made the short drive towards GZ from a previous cache and I found the cache fairly quickly. The coordinates were out, but the hint gave it away.

We do enjoy some golf, but not today as we wanted to arrive at Port Arthur and it was drizzling/cold.

Our thanks to OldSaint and greetings from Canberra! Cool

01-Aug-14
We made this one a whole lot harder than it needed to be and searched for a little while where the GPS suggested we needed to be... Even though the location was strange and had nothing to offer in the way of hiding spots, Ghostgums, Kaisho53 and I persisted for a few minutes, before glancing around and spotting something that matched the hint.. Aha... Big Grin

A quick relocation and the container was in hand... The log was a little damp but usable so we added our details. Cache back in place, we noted our GPSs suggested we were 17m from GZ. The hiding spot is obvious when you look around though, we just chose not to for a while... Red Face

Cheers OldSaint.
 
01-Aug-14
Wouldn't have found this one if it wasn't for the hint! I had it about 18m from GZ. Big Grin

Found on Day 4 of our Hobart caching trip. Today we headed down the Tasman Peninsula to collect a few different cache types to qualify for the various souvenirs on offer in the August Challenge! We started the day in Sorell and made our way down through Dunalley, Port Arthur and finished exploring the remarkable cave! On the return we made a stop in Richmond and added to our cheese collection!

Thanks OldSaint for the cache! Big Grin

This is the first time I've been down the Peninsula in a number of years, so coming through Dunalley, it was incredible to realise the extent of the fires' impact. This was a quick find although the cache contents were a bit damp. We could still write in the logbook though. Thanks OldSaint. More so than the golf club, the Vinnies sign was drawing me to head there...but we had a lot planned so we continued on!
 
08-Jul-14
Today dippy and I (Knight #4) went on a caching trip down the Tasman Peninsula. On the way in to this cache Dippy saw a Vinnies sign which she was intrigued by knew that we had to be at another cache by 9:20, so no Vinnies today. At GZ we made a quick find in the most likely of places. The log was quite damp and will need replacing. TFTC Oldsaint.

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.
