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,

Had a good search, also on the ground but nothing there. We are joining the list of DNF.
Sadly this was a DNF for us today. We searched in what seemed to be the right place without any luck. I eve boosted my nephew up to look up high. We will try again when we are next in town.
We started the day with this one ! We put a new logbook because it was missing... TFTC and greetings from Montréal Québec
Nearly went away without finding the cache when a last looking back revealed the little one!
Thanks for the cache and the information in the listing,

Staying a few nights in Charters Towers this morning we visited the library to learn about the archives section to hopefully trace some family history here from the Pioneer days.
Lunch at the stock exchange cafe then off to explore some more of town.
Loving the history in this town. Log sheet was full so we replaced it.

In Charters for a couple of days for a car service. Thought we would grab some local caches. An easy find by the drive in. Brings back lots of memories. The log is full. Added some additional Log paper and signed that. The next finder will need to handle with care and may need a special tool to extract and refit the log.

Missedya - Could not locate this one even though the hint and spoiler images are easy and it was also located yesterday. May be just cache blind!!
Being part of the GC Pirate game and so far from home we were happy to come across a town that had a few caches in it. As multi's are worth more tokens in the game this week we decided to concentrate mainly on those so a nice early start was had and we saw lots of Charters Towers on our tour.
We were remember the highlights of our youth going to the drive in on one day of the weekend and not doing much the next day as we had spent all our money unless you could sneak some one in in the boot to help fund the exercise. Being broad daylight there wasn't much hassle with muggles tooing and froing from the drive in but there was still a fair bit of traffic using this road. We spotted the cache easily enough and had to plan our grab and replace to correspond with gaps in the traffic, at least we can say we have added our name to the log.
Thanks Cragged for the cache.

In Charters Towers for the day, this is the second time we visited as cachers, but there were still a few for us to find. We drove in from Macrossan Bridge and set out gps to go! Found At 10.12 am, and signed over others. This needs a new log sheet
Thanks Cragged
Thanks Cragged
Logbook is full, so I did a photolog. Unfortunately, the cinema is closed today TFTC!
Really good hide but log needs replacing. The hint is one ya really have to think about
Blackbeard picked this one up today on a cruise to Charters Towers with burgo78. TFTC.
Quick find.
Log full and didn't have one small enough in our geo bag .
Wasn't where we thought it was going to be.
Clue made sense when we found it lol.

Found at 4:20 pm before checking into this lovely Big 4 camp park. Soon had the little fella in hand but alas the log is chockers. Managed to jam our initials in before the reroll but there are no more gaps. We're amazed to find there are still working Drive In Theatres around. Guess it's the hot weather up this way. TFTC
Found a very small spot in the log to scrawl our initials. It's amazing to see one of these sites still operating. I thought they'd all disappeared! TFTC
Log book full
Located quickly whilst on a morning walk.

Love coming across these old drive ins. Wish we still had one in our home town.
Mr Beetle grabbed this one while I walked down and checked out the venue. Certainly brought back some interesting memories!
Thanks, the last cache that we will be doing in town. There's not many left so we will have to do them another time. Spent a day here longer than planned too as it was.

With Solving4X. Great drive-in! Let's hope the gain in popularity again! Log is full and needs replacing.
Today we arrived into Charters Towers
A variety of caches found as we geocached around the area.
A nice quick find at GZ. I do remember the drive-in days, sadly none still operating in our home town
Thanks for placing this cache

This was the last one on our trip to Charters Towers. Easy find, but that nano log sheet was just too hard for my fumbly fingers to sign. Thanks Cragged, and all the COs in Charters Towers for adding a little bit of geo-spice to our visit. Cheers from Bindair Dundat and Princess Madelyn.
I catched him on my road trip from Darwin toward Cairns. Nice place for a cache!!!

Thanks for bringing back some happy memories Cragged[^]

On our trip trough Australia with the hole family we looked also for some caches. They often showed us places we would never had discovered. Thanks a lot to all the people who care about this lovely hobby .
Oh what a pity. I always want to go to carcinema! We even arrived when the movie started but with our campervan, I dont think they would have let us in...

Put it where I think it should be.
