After 7 DNF's and no maintenance visit by the owner who is a local, it appears that this should be archived.
Four DNF's now. Probably time for the cache to be checked by the owner, and/or be temporarily disabled. Cheers Gav
Had a thorough search as we had the place to ourselves at night.
Found a number of things (someones lost prescription glasses under the steps for example) but no cache.

I reckon we know where it is, just couldnt find it. It didnt help that some cow cocky muggles turned up to check out some penned cattle about 5 minutes after us.

We didn't have much trouble with this one. The nano was where we thought we would hide it.
Spent a while looking for this one and then reread the logs and realised the coordinates hadn't be changed yet so after broadening my search the cache was found fairly quickly. (I gotta say I really hate nano's!!!!)
No cows filling the yards today but two beautiful horses followed me back and forward along the fence but quickly lost interest when they realised I wasn't bringing food.

Having been uninspired by the last 2 did not finds for this one we actually put off looking for this one previously but the inspired by the last found log we decided to give it a go & bingo in no time we had the booty in hand. TFTC.
Thank goodness for the kids & their height.
GPS took us within 4 metres.
Grass was up high & so it must of been when this cache was placed 12 months ago.

Similar to one I visited the day before... I can see how these things get lost!

This had been my Nemisis cache during my visit to the area. I had been their 3 times but had never realy done a full search. Turns out I didn't need to do a bigger search but just open my eyes as I had looked at the area before. Just shows how the little ones can catch ou out. TFTC LUNATIC_200. [776]
Very clever hide! Took a while & had to step back, take stock & rethink... like a geocacher! TFTC
Just a tiny bit tricky for those who previously have hunted in these sort of structures. Glad no-one was "at home"! TFTC
Not the usual place I'd visit so it was an interesting spot. Nobody around and no hamburgers waiting.TFTC
No moo cows around here today, but we could still smell them. A distant muggle was watching us from afar as Trev looked and looked until he finally found it. His arthritic fingers find winding up nano logs a bit difficult. Thanks for another Katherine cache, we've been having fun.
It appears that the coordinates might be a bit out. I shall endeavour to update them when I'm in the area next.
Until then, you'll just have to look a bit harder

Thanks LUNATIC 200. TheGspoters are on the hunt again. Found this one on our sunday drive to see if we could finish off the caches around Katherine. Coords were a bit out but found all the same.
Searched high and low for this one (checked all over that ladders and railings) with no luck. There were cattle in the yards and they were not happy to see us.
I've never visited a stock yard before so it was interesting for me to see. It had a 'ghost town' feel about it but I can imagine the hive of activity when yard is in operation. TFTC!
It was hard!! Took about 15 mins before Mr Bushies2 found it. Thanks LUNATIC 200 for the cache and hunt.
Special Thanks to Nallee and Slat's for replacing the nano. All good to go once again
Thanks guys
Thanks guys
What an epic this one was, after not finding it contacted cache owner for a hint, after getting the hint, still couldn't find the cache. Contact Slat's the FTF who also hinted where it should be. Well it wasn't where it should be. Contacted Slat's who came out to the cache site, he couldn't find it either, after some digging around in the dirt we found it. The little nano had fallen off and is stuffed, Slat's bought out a replacement nano and all is good in the world again.

After watching the motorbike noobs stack their bikes a few times we found this nano with a soaked log in it so we didn't sign the log. TNLN TFTC
