Arrgh the last cache for me to find while in the park and it's no where to be found. Searched all the obvious plants & stumps then checked recent logs. Looks like it's a DNF for the previous finder but reading back through logs, it sounds like it's an easy find. The CO might want to check on this cache.
Thanks for the hunt matt&jo-starr

No luck today despite a number of people having a look. Thanks matt&jo-starr.
Not very well hidden but spotted it out of the corner of my eye whilst looking for it. I fixed the it but its still in the same place as I found it
We headed out to Para Wirra for a walk with the dog on a beautiful day. It was a nice little walk out to Devils Nose and we found this one on the way back to the car we left at the entrance to the park. Looks like the cache has been replaced with a better container and zip lock bag.. Everything was dry and good to go. TFTC..
In town for the weekend to attend a couple of events on Saturday and Sunday...and to do a few caches as well! After checking out of our motel and having a great brekkie at Milkohlics, we made our way in caching time to the Decachelon Event at Victoria Park, after the event we headed here to meet up with locus cache, Marcus and Brodie to do the Multi in the park. On the way out, we stopped so that locus cache could replace this one for a friend. We signed the log and replaced the cache. TFTC
There is no longer a cache container here and NM has been ignored. If this one isn't going to be maintained, then it needs to go.
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.
I am 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 28 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 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Managed to avenge my DNF on this cache from a few months ago today. As others have noted, there is no cache anymore, just a torn plastic bag leaving the contents exposed to the elements. Original log is a block of mouldy paper mush and replacement sheet that a previous finder left is not far behind, though I did manage to sign it just barely. Disappointing as this is a lovely area to visit. TFTC matt&jo-starr!
Quick find , disappointed in the state of the cache only a torn plastic bag with the onset of winter this will turn to mush and disinterrate needs maintenance, TFTC matt&jo-starr 
The cache needs a cache container. It is only in a plastic bag atm and the bag itself is torn.
It has been a long time between caches for the Golden Elf. An absolutely foul accident on the Adelaide Cup Day weekend left him at high risk of needing plastic surgery. A terrible gash has meant no shoes for a very long time. During the last week we have gradually been breaking him in to wearing sneakers around the house and for short trips. Today we decided to attempt a few caches needing a walk, but we ran late! So we parked the car and walked to this one. Down Hill and Up Dale has meant the heel got a work out and so far, so good. The cache is in fact only in a plastic bag. I wish I had taken a spare container with me! A pretty spot and wish we had time to walk on further. Dropped off a minion.
Found on the way back from the hike to the nose.
Left my walking stick.
Thanks.

Out for a muggy walk tonight after work. It's such a great place for a walk and chill after work.
It's in a snap lock bag

Found at 1028hrs, easy find but there's no actual cache container, only a zip lock bag with a log book. Thanks matt&jo-starr
#1874 Visiting here from Melbourne and picking up a few caches along the way. Wasn't til I read some prior logs that we widened the search a little then soon found the cliplock bag - in good order but don't know how long it'll remain that way without a container. Thanks matt&jo-starr.
The cache needs a container as it's currently just a re-sealable plastic bag. It also needs a replacement logbook as the small one in it is full.
Found the cache eventually. It seems a few metres from where the GPSr was pointing, and no longer has a container. As a previous finder has already stated, the log book is full and needs replacing.
Thanks matt&jo-starr.
Thanks matt&jo-starr.
A nice little hide not too far from the carpark. Added some paper as the little log book is full. TFTC!
Catching up on some late, very late and extremely late logs (400 in all)
I would like to thank matt&jo-starr for placing this cache. I always enjoy getting out and about to view this great country of ours and caching allows me to do that. Once at GZ, I sometimes find the cache quickly but sometimes it takes awhile to sus out the well camouflaged hide. Once found, log is signed and the cache is rehidden as found.
Once again thanks matt&jo-starr.

In Adelaide for a couple of days with micaparamedic we were roaming around taking in the sights and picking up some caches.
We pulled up here and guessed where the cache might be but there was a muggle standing next to her car in the car park so we looked around at the trees and were just generally chatting and then she walked away. We walked away so we used thus opportunity to grab the cache and add our names to the log and as we were walking away she called out , did you find it? as she was coming back.
It turns out it was ????
Thanks mattjo-star for the cache.

Furrangel and I decided we would go somewhere we had not been before.
Looking at the map we decided Para Wirra was the winner.. Looked like we could combine a nice work and some caches
Wonderful walk aroud the park.. plenty of birds singing us songs, and a few emu's as we pulled up
Thanks Matt&jo-starr for the cache and excuse to get out of the house

While the geokids were still napping in the car, I took advantage and nabbed myself a cache. Tried getting it from the wrong end first, and thought 'wowie someone doesn't want this found'.
Note for next time. Consider all options before sticking hand up holes.

We looked for a long time and found it because of rafael's persistence and determination to find it.
Found with tree_trunks. Parked at the devils nose and followed a track off to the left, which took us straight to it such a cool little cave!
