This cache has been disabled for 30 days. Should be archived.

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.
I am going to Disable it, and I'll check back in 4 weeks to see if I need to take further action if you have not investigated the situation and provided us with an update.
That action will be to Archive it unless there is a reason provided why I should not.
Thanks.

Didn't spend long looking ad the last few are dnfs

Missing??

After seeing two dnf s I was a bit worried it would be a waste of time. Sadly it was. A hit might be helpful.

DNF

It was stolen - no sign of it any where

We found the this little hiding place but found the treasure was not in trace

Did not find , think a muggle might have taken it

Was here with the friend who was last to find it. Seems to be MI. Tftc

Thanks for the cache, a good hide.

Nice little hide. Cute. Tftc

First cache find in Launceston Tassie .. my dad has kidnapped my son so thought ild grab some local ones near his place

Took awhile to find in the day dark. Was looking up high! Thanks for the hide.

Great hiding spot, really cute! So glad we could find this one, our last attempt appeared to be missing.

Nice hide in an ordinary spot. Tftc

Quick find during our stroll through Launceston.

Thanks for the cache and greetings from Frankfurt am Main.

Thank you for the cache. Maggie the great GeoWestie caching with Carer. nearly gave up. Great hide

Tftc

Found with LAGO6 while in Tassie on holidays. TFTC

Very clever camo. Almost gave up , but after checking the gallery and confirming I was searching in the right area I had a closer look and then it just jumped out at me. TFTC

Thanks for the find!

lol we are blind

Tricky one for my first geocache and I think a guy thought I was looking for a hook up but good fun and I’m looking forward to taking my kids geocaching!

TFTC

Caching in the dark in an urban area is always fun, so i kept look out while goose searched, in a couple of minutes we had the cache in hand and I added our names to the log while goose hid in the dark.

Thanks for the cache.

Myself and goose of gooseandegg planned a trip North into the badlands to get some caches to help with our hidden creatures finds, early start for a Saturday with me picking Goose up at around 7 O'clock even with a couple of stops along the way we made good time which helped us to clock up 42 finds on the Saturday and 24 on the Sunday before heading back to the civilised South, getting back in my drive at just gone 6pm with 580kms under my belt, 66 caches in 35 hours while not a bad haul is less than 2 an hour, I must try harder next time!

We were here in the dark with a torch. Stainless steel rat was up on the footpath keeping lookout while I poked around in the mud. It was a case of torch on, torch off until I eventually found it. I threw it up to SSR to sign while I stood there stuck to the ground hidden in the dark. All park of night time caching

Out on a cold morning to get a few new caches which have gone down since our last visit to Tas, all ok with the cache. TFTC

Hello Guripper and DGT thank you for the cache.

This one took a lot longer to find that it should have, I over thought it and made it hard for my self.

I wanted to find some caches so I could get some Hidden Creatures souvenirs that I can proudly display on my profile page that no one will see.
I travelled up from Hobart for this search.

Good one

DNF, in the dark didn't help! Searched high and low! Will be going back for a good look in the light!

Found on our Tassie trip
Good hide
Tftc

Sadly a DNF for this one. Made my was across the wet grass to GZ and the bank was slippery, but no guidance on where to look, no clues, and a wobbly GPS all contributed to the DNF. This is rated as a 1.5, yet others have also said this is tricky.

#8073 - 14:20; After arriving in Tasmania last Saturday and heading down to Hobart for a few days, we are now in Launceston. While the geohoney catches up with family, I headed out for a cache or two. Parked near GZ and headed off on the hunt. Kept homing in on a particular area, but couldn't come up with the goods. Checked earlier logs and was still left scratching my head. Put the GPSr away and had a bit closer look around and spotted the hide soon after. Tricky little hide that takes a bit of effort to spot. TFTC Dirty Girl Tas

Found it! Poking around for a bit then realised it was obvious!

Easy to find.

Nice and quickly found with a bit of geointuition!!

Flying kites ??
Here ?
It is a bit sheltered so the wind won't get in

Good spot for hiding a cache though [^]
And under the acorn trees I soon tracked down this sneaky little hide

Another smilie I've squirreled away [^]

Nice quick find cheers

#400 finally, was happy to finally get up to #400! It’s a pity when people post photos it gives it away but cache is in good condition TFTC

A bit of a hunt but found

Thank you for the cache. For some reason, this seemingly simple cache eluded me for several attempts until today on a whim I decided to have a look again, and, I found it! I didn't have a pen at the time but I photologged, see the photo.

We were nearby and stopped to locate this cleverly hidden cache. TFTC

TFTC, great park btw

Just realised that I forgot to log this from a couple of weeks back. Ironically, this was a cache we looked for but couldn't find about 2 1/2 years ago when we first came to Tas. Today we searched again and found it, on our last caching day before leaving Tas.
Clever hide.
TFTC!

Hi there Guripper and DGT.

We found your cache **"The Sport Of Queens"** at 11:06:00 AM today. (This brings our total find count to 18585).

The plan today was to log a random cache some distance from our camp site, and then find a few more caches using the "next closest" method. We started our journey in South Launceston and had a great day!

We ended up finding a variety of container types and sizes on our journey & found 6 caches (& DNF'd 2). This one took a long time to find, the camo had us fooled for a while.

Thank you for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places to visit on our nomadic wander around Australia.

**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

It was hidden better than I thought it would be. Great spot.

Tftc

Found after Geodaughter spotted her teacher and introduced him to geocaching and he found his first one.

Dippa46 and I have been holidaying around Tassie and collecting caches on the way to mark our journey. Thoroughly enjoying ourselves. TFTC

Clark co 2

Back home after being in Tassie for a holiday, now the daunting task of logging all our finds, sorting through the scraps of paper with notes on them.
Had a few days of sunshine, a lot of days of rain, ended up with just over 105 finds all up on this trip, and visited many tourist spots in the north of Tassie.

found this cache after a quiet night in Georgetown.
no muggles about. love the hide

thanks to the Dirty Girl Tas for this cache

Sneaky

Fun find

Tftc

Excellent one!

Nice and easy

I live near this park, so I really want this cache! If it is there it is harder than 1.5D.

Could CO check if this one is still there?

No luck today.

Looked but no find

Second attempt at this one, failed again

In the area, not many muggles about so decided to stop and made a quick find. Good hide, the spiderwebs give it even more camo SL TFTC Dirty Girl Tas

Great hiding spot...

Nice and quick, thank you

Nice little find thank you.

Sad to say I couldn't find it.

Nice spot, thanks!

I cache your reality and substitute my own! TFTC.

*8/09/2016, Found @ 6:05 PM, Find # 5649.*

While on my trip around Tasmania looking for caches, this one was found.
The last couple of finds for the day before it was time to get something to eat and settle in for the night.
I headed to this one, had to wait for a muggle and her dog to go away, I then could have a look and was able to make a quick find.

**Thanks to Guripper and DGT for placing this cache.**

Tftc

TFTC!

Cache guarded by a spider...

Found it, took a bit of time but we found it in the end~

Yay

Such a good hide - we enjoyed looking for this one. Thanks for the cache.

Walked around and around it, didn't see it at all . Turned around and there it was

Easy find

Nice quick find, too cold and windy for any muggles. TFTC

Nice walk to get this one. Tftc

Found it, Logged it, NEXT!!!

TFTC

Almost died with all the acorns around but found it

What a great little hide! Had me searching for a few minutes with no obvious hiding place. Fortunately the sporting muggles were focussed on their soccer as I unearthed the cache from its excellent cameo. TFTC Guripper and DGT, SL and left paper card.

This caching is a slippery slope! Have removed the eight legged resident from
Cache.

Nice little hide. TNLN TFTC

I found this while attending the Ulysses club event nearby. tftc.

TFTC had it in hands quickly after waiting for a few running muggles to go past.

Nice to walk around the park with some hot chips from the nearby take away. Another lunch break well spent, thanks
