As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

No joy for me either. Hope the owner can shed some light on it.

We knew where to look based on the excellent hint but no luck with finding the cache. We searched for about 20 mins. I think this cache needs to be checked by the cache owner.

Found this morning with my father sixmetre.
After going geocaching i created my own user for my bestfriend and i, perfect i think for us to do!
Very easy to find, but well hidden.
Did notice the pole with barbed wire which looked worse for wear Very Happy
Very easy clue to find!
Was my first geocache.
 
14-Oct-10

10/10/10 15:20 Left the GPS in the car and dodged race cars. Bathurst today. Guess half the cachers wil be watching Wink

Dropped turtle TB. Others visited. Cheers, GC.

Sad Tale: Parked across the road safely. Unfortunately the post with barbed wire I parked in front of proved an immovable object as I drove off afterward. The bumper did spring back out, but I guess my pet panel-beater / spray-painter will pay his mortgage again this week Wink

No one around on a Monday morning until we got back to where we'd parked the camper & there was a car beside with 2 suspicious looking older guys in it. We think they were spies Big Grin. They didn't follow us down the road but left straight after. (Perhaps they were the other cachers from today Surprised???) TFTC

A nearly driveby! We had spent the morning with walks up and down hills and gullys, so it was nice to do one on the level.
Particularly liked the clue.
