###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.
I am going to Disable it, and I'll check back in 4 weeks to see if either
- the CO has checked or rectified the apparent problem
- the CO has communicated when action will be taken
If the CO has not taken either of these actions, then regrettably the cache 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

Hi.
Attempted to find this cache, however it appears that the area is now under some construction works. It didn’t feel safe to go for a proper search around. Might be worth having a look at the area yourself and seeing what you think.
Cheers

Hi CatWomanAu, thanks for the cache, and for showing me yet another track I didn't know about.
#1064 @ 1515hrs Sunday 26th August 2018
Up from Hobart on a caching plunder with AlbyDangles, after dropping off a couple jnr Refs at training this morning.
Parked above the Gorge Tea Rooms, walked down to Kings Bridge, and back via the ZigZag Track and Suspension Bridge, with a few deviations and side trips along the way.
Then grabbed a few quick ones on the way back to collect the jnr Refs.1515

Was tricky to find. First thought was wrong so kept looking.
Found. My daughter didn't want to take anything because we didn't bring anything to swap, I told her we could come back and replace it but she still didn't want to.

I took up the only real parking spot and we were just about to start our search when a family start SLOWLY walking up the hill and down an ally.
With the coast clear we both started seatching and in the end one of us spotted the cache and our names were added to the logbook.
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!

It was quiet here this morning bit after we parked another car came up, a family walked up and a dog barked. Really, [B)] so much for stealth.
When the coast was clear, GPS was as erratic as were were (still without a decent coffee) so we searched a few ares before stainless steel rat called out he'd found it. Phew!
Thanks CatWomanAU

Out on a cold frosty morning to get a few new caches which have gone down since our last visit to Tas, TFTC
I had been meaning to find this cache for some time but never really had a reason to stop and have a look until today as I was in the area looking for some other caches and decided it was now or never! TFTC.
Hi there CatWomanAU.
We found your cache **"Memory Lane #3 Chicken Run"** at 11:12:00 AM today. (This makes our grand total 18970).
We are camped in Launceston for a couple of nights, and today we headed to Lake Trevallyn to log a few caches - and on our way we spotted that this cache had a TB so we just had to go for it. We found a place to park and headed off to the cache in probably the second most difficult route and found the cache exactly where our GPS said it would be.. We thoroughly enjoyed our trek around the area and ended up finding a variety of container types, and sizes on our journey. Our find count for today was 5 caches, with 2 DNF's.
Thanks for placing the cache here. Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found this cache where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.
**Grabbed Trackable:** "Tiny Tank The Tassie Devil".
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

Took us a while to find - so many possible places according to the hint...
But remember- size isn't everything!!
Left a trackable behind hope someone enjoys finding this cache!!

A quick find which was just as well as a number of muggles appeared on the track just after we arrived back in the car. TFTC
I tried to find this cache yesterday,
but somehow managed to misread the clue
Gotta get me eyes checked
With the correct clue this time around,
it was an easy find
And I got to fill up on Vitamin C tablets
MMMM !! Blackberries

Flew over from Melbourne to spend the day caching around Launceston.
Was in the second place I looked.
All I can say is watch out for the blackberry bushes.
Thanks CatWomanAU TFTC.

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 spending the night here in Launceston
no muggles about. Quick find.
thanks to the catwoman au for this cache

Didn't know this lane way was here! Met some kids cycling by and was a bit worried about putting my hand a bit further down than I was comfortable with. But found it nice and dry and signed as sneakily as I could.
Our second time looking for this one and found it quite quickly placed log sheet in a ziplock bag as it was a bit damp in there. TFTC
Just up the road from our house, it was great to finally grab this one! TFTC
Quick find as the cache was uncovered, open & wet. Could not sign log & didn't have the time or resources to dry/replace, but tried to move it under a bit more cover. Could do with a better hiding spot. TFTC
Can CO check to see if it is still active. Have looked a couple of times now and cannot locate it.
Found cache tonight whilst out and about. Not quite in its original hide and not the original container but still there safe and sound from muggles.

Travelling around Australia and spending a few months in Tasmania.
Today was all about attending the Event.
But Mr Felix headed out with his GeoBike early to grab the last few caches in this area.

Found it - tree has been lopped but is still there our first find! Thankyou
Might need checking, very big tree has been dropped in the GZ possibly destroying the caches hide.
Suspect it may have gone, extensive tree lopping and poles and post knocked down
Super quick find as cache was visible from pathway. Covered up a tad better

I was a bit worried about the clearing of the area but found the cache after all.

This was one last cache as I exited the recreation area today. I started out up top, but then moved the car to a much closer spot and made the grab. The hint was very helpful. TFTC.
