Last find in October 2015 followed by a DNF and an unactioned Needs Maintenance since gives us the impression this one is unloved and has flown like an eagle! Perhaps it's time for it to go?

We checked out all the likely spots including deep into the trunk - see Green-Martian log and images. Found nothing.
Thanks for the hunt anyway Marksman93.

Hate to say it but this cache is beyond reach. Saw the potential GZ took out my torch and saw cache about 2m deep in tall trunk. So found but could no sign log.
I looked in holes, attempted to photograph in them with a flash. I even climbed a little way up the tree...nothing...a DNF!
Continuing my journey south, I decided to take in some of the countryside. So I detoured to a couple of caches. this was the first. I parked the car and crossed the road and began my search. It wasnt long before I had the cache in hand. I signed the log and returned the cache to its hiding spot before heading back to the car.
Our only free day for quite some time so we decided to head out on a geomission around the area. We have had a couple of mini tours lately, but today we went all out to Cowra and Grenfell to see how many we could find. Rapidlywild came along for the drive to fill her gaps where she has previously posted DNF's. The weather was lovely and the drive was picturesque, thank you to all the cache owners for bringing us to this lovely part of Australia.
We meandered along between the farms until we reached this cache, the original log and container have been put to rest at the bottom, so we grabbed the new one which was attached signed the log and reattached for the next finder.

After being couped up at home for over a week due to an ugly illness, cabin fever was setting in and I needed out for the day.
I decided to hit the country roads and head north for a while before coming back south. I had a very enjoyable day out along the dirt roads exploring the country side. Lots of nice areas and caches to make things even better
As others have stated, this one is most definately there, right dooooowwwwwnnnnnn the bottom. I attempted to use some tape and a long branch to grab onto the container but no go. I was approached by a local farmer who was asking what I was upto and giving me dirty looks. Told him I was driving the country roads and having a break. He didnt believe me but he did move on. I waiting till he was well and truely gone before I placed a new container in the same location however I placed some rope on the container and secured it to prevent it joining the other one at the bottom.
Thanks Marksman93 for placing these caches, lovely area especially on a day like today.

It is there, just out of reach. Didnt have any tape or reaching device but im sure its not supposed to be down that far. Its a white tube thing with a green geocache label on it, took a pic but it didnt turn out to well either, maybe a replacement or sum maintenance so others can sign the log book. Tfth
Found cache in hole. Could not retrieve. Next person will need tape on end of a large stick to retrieve. Tftc.
I think this one is gone now. You can see where a large log once laid but it looks to have been cut up for firewood
Enjoyed watching Alwyn dive for (unnecessary) tools and then wake up. Nicely hidden - thanks.
Nice hide. Log's a little damp. Even met a jogger coming along this little road.
We decided to visit my niece in Weetaliba over the weekend. Coming from Canberra meant around 500+ km of travel, so naturally we needed a few “breaks” along the way. This cache was the second of them!
Nice little drive to this one, and a nice hide too! Thanks again MM93.

Sorry For The late Log! But! With The Help Of Noikmeister I have gotten all the logs that I need.
Found at 6:06:00 PM.
Found on a trip out NW with the family camping, showing and caching. A nice quick find and the last for the night as we lost the light and stuck out for home.
Found with DogBoyOz
Thanks Marksman93

Lovely sunny day to do caching today...took us a while before Ms Bushies2 found it...sneaky hide. Thanks Marksman93 for the clever hide.
My gps didnt have this road on its maps. But coming from a nearby cache we soon made our way to gz. At gz made a quick find the log is wet. So had to scratch the date and name in TFTC Marksman93

The first one of the 4 day trip to the ACT. Found the way in easily and soon had the cache in hand and signed. Road was in pretty good condition after all the rain recently.

Been a while between visitors, so I was a bit worried about it still being in situ, however my fears were not warranted and the cache is siting nicely in place. Log is a little damp, but still able to write a name on it.
Always enjoy driving these back roads, so thanks for the reason to do it today....and thanks also for the cache.

After a bit of lunch in Cowra, it is time to be heading back towards Canberra. This back road seems to have been cleared a bit. The cache is safe in its hidey hole. Thanks.

Was a bit worried about finding this one as the council has been cleaning all the trees beside the road. If anyone wants some fire wood then get over there quick the council has done all the hard work for you. Loved the cache hide very clever, thanks.
Nice spot, thanks for bringing us here. Would have liked to see a larger cache.
Or first for the day on the way to wagga, still in the dark so out with the torch for quick find ! never been on this road before ! thanx for the cache and the *FTF*
