I am regretfully archiving this cache since there's been no response from nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in the last reviewer note.

This cache hasn't been found in 12 months only 1 mistaken log. It appears that the CO is no longer active maybe it needs archiving so no one else comes looking.

Good Day,

This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.

Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.

Looking forward to hearing from you,

An enjoyable stop on the way to platypus flats to check out the camping there, which turned out to be a no due to it being packed out. Looked like it would be an amazing spot off season though. TFTC!
Cheers,

Thank you for bringing us to this beautiful area on our 3 day trip to Dorrigo & surrounds. TYFC
This is our 2nd Day. We are enjoying Today even more than Yesterday.

I had hoped to drive up this road for some sights and walking, but the rain had ruled out the GeoMazda6, which is already damaged from previous forest drives. There were a few options around GZ but I found the right one and the cache, which was just a bit damp. Thanks for a great hide.

Nice easy find thanks to it not being covered well, so I signed, covered well and was on my way. TFTC

TFTC! On a mini road-trip

I did not go too mad here at the turn off to MoonPar
The cache was a really easy find !! [:o]
Now there's something different in this bit of the world [^]

TFTC !!

A nice quick find in what looks like it would be a lovely park. Too bad it is closed at the moment.

TFTC

Had to look around a bit but got it at the end

Found it with geodad Whitey Wiskas --- All Good .. TFTC ..

Found with Geoson Geoff511. TFTC Thanks appips

We found this Cache quite easily, and then proceeded to tackle the forest road down to Platypus Flat camping area for a swim. It is not a road for the faint hearted, we had our swim and decided to take the other road which takes you through to Dorrigo. However we took a wrong turning and got lost traveling many more km's than we should have and spent an hour and a half getting back to civilisation, quite an adventure. TFTC.

Gotcha !!! TFTC

Nice one, thanks appips, SL.

TFTC. Left a smiley face.

Found it TFTC

Found It - - Quick Find TFTC -

Great little area to pull up and find a cache.TFTC.

We weren't boxed in or mailed out or even felled by this hide. Tftc.

Last cache of the day and it has been eventful. Found quickly and on our way back to out accommodation. TFTC

Last for the day. Thanks appips.

After dropping our caravan at Dangar Falls Camping area its off to do the circuit.
A great Saturday morning drive, so glad we decided to do I as soon as we arrived as rain has set in this afternoon. Great country views & such a variety of caches to be found.
Thanks appips for placing these caches.

I am usually conflicted between trying to find as many caches as possible, and doing one a day so it stays memorable - there are attractions to both philosophies. Took today off work to follow the first option and see how many caches on the "Dorrigo Loop" I could find. Also to publicize the upcoming 2014 New England Cachers meet and greet event as I log my finds.

This was #7/24. What a nice spot which I'd never even heard of. Found at 11.00am. Cache seems in good state. Took nothing, left eraser, pen. TFTC Appips

Found with Nudge74 & Doogle06 while doing the 'Dorrigo Loop').

Easy Find on drive thru country with Vaggfam and Doogle06.

TFTC.

Found with Nudge74 & Vaggfam on a big day of caching in and around Dorrigo. TFTC.

Last one for today. Like the idea of the forest drive and will come back and do that. Maybe even camp out. Tftc

No 38 at 4:05pm. Tftc

very cool

found where I expected it to be, thank you for highlighting this road, pity the route wasn't open to drive along today, but maybe next time i'm in this neck of the woods it will be.

Will have to come back with the mountain bike and try out some of the trails around here, and place some caches with a higher Terrain rating Almost skipped this one, but glad I didn't.

Rainy day didn't dampen the excitement of the hunt! I did resort to translating the hint though

Co-ords wandering pretty wildly here so used the clue..a few to choose from, of course, picked the right one last..cache safe and dry, TFTC appips

Another nice spot to stop on our caching trip today..co-ords wandering so used the clue...but which one??? snakes still about..have seen three today..TFTC appips..dropped off evil micro geocoin.

Found at 2.50pm GAFF1. Looks like there are some nice forest tracks to explore from this location.
Thanks appips.

Tempted to do the Forest drive but decided to carry on cachin' .. noted the location of the campground mentioned on the board for future reference .. TFTC

Really enjoyed our drive on this road today, it made a bit longer trip but much more enjoyable. TFTC appips,

We went on the Moonpar Forest Trail today. A brief stop to get things out the boot and read the info sign were enough time for me to find the cache and sign the log. Dino and Pebbles did their swaps.

Thanks appips, we are planning on going to Platypus Flat camp ground after we visit Dorrigo, and probably wouldn't have seen the turn off without the cache. TN, left a mobile ph fridge magnet.

Something caught our eye as we drove up towards GZ and led us towards where we thought the cache would be. However with a slightly different perspective the real GZ showed itself and the cache was in hand in no time. Thanks for placing the cache here for us to find today Appips.

Easy find. The drive looks very interesting. Tftc

RedskullDC found this one after smashing his leg, poor sod. Oh the trials and tribulations of geocaching! TFTC

A quick stop and found it quickly then on our way again!!
Took tape measure left Zebra

NIce drive out. Found it quickly. Took Geo Coin, Left dinoasaur. TFTC

Dark clouds and thunder heralded our approach from Dundurrabin and the heavens opened a few kms short of GZ. Easy find but had to wait before we could put it back as a log truck and two campervans had pulled up to shelter from the storm. We have camped at Platypus Flat and the Cod Hole before but the weather today dictated a pub room in Dorrigo. Left a german geo-coin. Thanks appips.

Rain and more rain has upset the GPS terminally so it was just a question of which one. Nicely hidden - thank you.

Very wet and a GPS acting up because of cloud and rain made this a little testing. Found it by checking each feature. Thanks for the cache.

TNLN, SL.

I have been out this way plenty of times and have enjoyed camping and walking in the area. It's a very beautiful and peaceful place.

Finding the cache was easy as it was very exposed, so I ensured it was well covered before I left. I left my geocoin that I received as part of attending the Oz Mega Event in Wagga Wagga at Easter.

Found this great little cache at 9:00pm. Saw there was a new cache in the area, and though I needed to find it.
Left rubber ball. SL.
