No response from owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note.. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it. Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Goodbye.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm 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 30 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 page and post a note every month or so to keep everyone up to date.

Needs to be replaced or be gone.

Checked to see if the cache was still in location and the cache is gone. With the cannon gone as part of the multi and the actual cache gone its time this one gets archived.

Needs to be updated or archived

Yes it needs maintenance all right.

Hey, this cache needs maintenance as some of the clues no longer exist...
Please get it fixed up as I am waiting to do it.

Hi, the first waypoint has been renovated and the clues a and b cannot be found. Found c and d but couldn't find e. clues probably need to be changed.
Found the old one do wanted to find this one... Thanks anyway.

Our forty- sixth day of our honeymoon to New Zealand and Australia.
This morning we left around 8.30 AM the Alligator Creek Road House rest area for some caching in Townsville Along the way to the power trail we saw the military training area and the copper factory. We parked our camper van at the Loam Island Boat ramp and walked first South. After finding all caches except one, we returned along the road which was much less amusing then the walk along the river side. As we had parked our camper in the middle we continued our walk along the road to the rest of the caches of the RRPT and after finding the last one, we crossed the road to get an ice cream at the fuel station, as it was hot today. After being back at the car we went to the north to do some multi caches and looked at an African festival. After that we visited some solved mysteries and before returning to the Alligator Creek Road House rest area we visited the Coles to do the shopping for the last week. Now we are using the power supply at the rest area for logging our finds. In our geocaching career we never found a cache on June 16, but today we managed to do some.

We DID NOT found this cache today.
After finding the answers on the question, we had only some doubt of B, we went to our two calculated GZ and found the red friend, but could not see any cache. We had a good look and also widen our search area, but after finding a very big yellow spider we decided to give up.

Just tracking my finds with a TB

Second visit back to this one with a hint from a previous finder.
It seems I made a slight calculation error and was searching about 20m from the true GZ.
Today after a hint it still took me a good 10mins to find!
Luckily it was Easter monday and the place was deserted.

Cheers and happy caching.

#117 Well it has taken us two months, but we finally stopped in to Cannon Park.

We found A-D without an issue, but still have no idea what E clue refers to. Thankfully, the checksum fixed that issue and we were on our way to GZ. It only took a couple of minutes to locate the cache and sign the log. Made it back to the car before I realised we still had the pencil with us.

All back in order, and still in great condition.

I am pretty sure I had the right co-ords adn the clue matched but no cache today.

Maintenance run ..... all in good order!

Second one of this type of cache we found this morning. Have found a couple of similar ones in Cairns and also in the Northern Territory plus about a dozen of them in New Zealand. TFTC

Thanks so much for your detailed hint. Walked right up to it with the additional information. Checked things over in hindsight and managed to work out that I had actually interpreted one of the questions incorrectly and worked out a slightly different set of coordinates that I had been searching for the last however many visits!! Between that and forcing the clue to fit my calculated location, I spent a lot of time fruitlessly searching the area. Well all done now! I certainly know the area well and won't forget this cache in a hurry! Thanks again for your patience with us on this one, your quick response to email and checking the cache, Braelair.

Back again with 2 extra sets of eyes but still couldn't find it

I have checked and the container is most definitely still in location ..... if anyone needs a clue or 2, email me!

Another dnf. This seems to be my Townsville nemesis cache . Will have another look when Pagan is up and then we may resort to begging for a hint if we still can't find it . 'Til next time.

Forgot all about this one! paid it one last visit today and found straight away.

I have checked the cache. Yup, there it was ..... gone. A replacement container has been added to GZ, so back in business. The new container is quite a bit 'thinner', so a good check of the hide is necessary.

Fairly certain we were in the right area but no luck with this one.

Pretty sure we were in the right place, but just couldn't find the thing. :/ resolved to come back another day.

Finally back after the big blow ..... gotta love cyclones! Dropped off TB.

Pulled out for the cyclone. Will replace into the hide once the all clear is given and the clean up has concluded.

Started to solve the puzzle and got around to the final cache site just as a heavy downpour hit. Got a little damp doing the log and very wet getting to the car. Nice puzzle.

Found at 16:15

Found with geomum and dad. Rained just as we found it. Log was wet. Tftc TNLN

After working on the clues and hints and coords, fond this one log a little wet, TFTC TNLN

Oh bugger, I replaced the cache an hour after conducting the maintenance, then forgot to update the log ..... SHEESH, no wonder there are no new finds!!!

Sorry guys, cache up and running when I last checked, but I will head out there and conduct a physical confirm once I return to Townsville on 21 Jan 11.

Just pulling this one in for maintenance. Back in an hour or so.

again a great spot but there were a few muggles but an easy find (and with no hints from Geodad!!!!!)

Signed the log

Great chase for this cache ... thanks also for the check sum! Geokid J worked really hard on this and nutted it out himself. His first find he can claim on his own!

The Reluctant Companion was right on to this one after we solved the puzzle. It was great to be able to do this one again under a different set of rules. The hide was great. TNLN TFTC We also enjoyed the poffertjes and coffee nearby and they were delicious.

Collected clues again but too many muggles at GZ as it was getting closer to lunch time . Given difficulty rating and muggle presence, I thought it best to leave the search until next visit.

found the right location, but didn't have time to keep looking. Always disappointing! Maybe another time.

Pleased to see this one back in service.
I was one of those people who advised to original owners to eventually archive the older lost cache.

Braelair, you beat me to a cache (placing it I mean) . Since I thought this area should have a cache, I had asked the owners of the old one to adopt theirs and they said yes, but never went through with it. So I asked them to archive it, so others could place one. When they finally did and I submitted my new Multi I got told that someone else was already in line!

Made finding this one quite easy , had all the info on photos. Except for Lukabean series number? What is it and where do you find it? Thanks to the checksum it was no problem to figure out what number I was missing.
Thanks for this one. T: TB L: Smiley Puzzle and fridge magnet

By the way, if you are doing this cache, drop into the Lukabean and have a coffee and some Poffertjes, they are so yummy!

Just dropping off the Crew153 Boomerang #2 GC plus the FTF Prize. Good luck!

FTF but only by a few minutes. I'm glad that I left work a little early, solved the puzzle and had the cache in hand, trying to look inconspicuous, only to be busted by Mrs Summer'skoby. Took GC

Found with Kidmac....Well it's not to often that you find a cache in someone's hand.... Congratulations Mrs Gemini on FTF(Geo dad is spewn) !!!! Was a close one but the better cacher beat us to the prize..... this time! Thanks for the revival of a great multi and for introducing us to some good coffee![^]

TNLN SL TFTC

Found with Summer'skoby.... great cache, bit tricky! nice to met Gemini 1&2....SL TNLN TFTC

Well Gemini 1 and 2 and Skoby can kiss their lucky stars. I went out last night to search for the cache and came up empty handed. After a phone call to the cache owner one of the hints was changed at 6am this morning changing the coords hence I was walking around circles and not happy as I didn't find the cache. Decided to go after work today and found the cache. The FTF prize was still in the cache so I grabbed it. I also left a TB that has come from Hawaii. A little disappointed at not getting the FTF (snif snif) however its a great hide Thanks for placing the cache.

My apologies to anyone else who had Cat&Bear's problem. One teeny mistake, and published early! Some days it is just not worth listing a cache. At least Cat got the FTF prize.
