Due to housing development in this area this cache has vanished, so today it has been replaced by an eclipse magnetic tin, containing a log and a pencil only. Now this area is being opened up it may not last long.[ heres hoping]...Same GPS coordinates.

G'day miloryder,

This geocache appears to be in need of owner maintenance. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the geocache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the geocache 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 listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date.

02-Apr-23
Heading out for a day of caching in a bid to hit a personal goal.

Next up on the list was this one in an attempt to clear some more of the local area. Despite looking quite thoroughly for this one, and sending a message to the CO about the possibility of it missing, geohubby and I sadly came up empty. There are a few clear places this should be located (particularly given the difficulty rating), but alas - no where to be found. Will keep an eye on this and if the CO replaces it I'll come back and check it out.

Gotta take a break from writing up caches! So another day out of the office

Nice one.

Log signed and cache replaced as found at 9:25 am on 27 August 2022. TFTC, miloryder

We weren't sure if the cache would be in the correct place, because when we got to GZ an interesting information sign was all over the place, along with pieces of the car that has obviously driven straight off the end of the road at high speed and pulled it out of the ground, concrete foundations and all. Fortunately though, after reading some of the logs, we found the cache hidden safely away. Thanks for the cache.

I was passing this way and had time to pick up one cache and this one looked interesting. I parked not far away and at GZ it was not long before i spotted this cache and then read the sign. Thankyou for taking me to this interesting spot and for placing this cache here for us to enjoy

Out with 1Minniemoo who is trying not to find too many caches right now, so she was happy to spend a day out in the sunshine with me collecting caches that mostly she had already found.
And what sunshine it was! The first day of spring but it felt like summer!
Last cache for the day, a bonus as we were doing an adventure lab waypoint.

This evening, I headed north for a few errands, and after completing those, I continued along with another stop/Location completing the *Pine Rivers War History* Adventure Lab. A few geocaches were found around Lawnton, before returning home and catching dinner. However, with a few new caches published just in the vicinity that I just was, I decided to return back out, and stop off at a few more geocaches. A nice evening to be out and about.

I made a stop here for the first of the day in completing the Adventure Lab mentioned. It took a little to find, as it was hidden away from the road, and located/buried within mud. The outer container has water inside, but the inner container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks miloryder for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

TFTC. We left Dayboro this morning only to go as far as Pine Rivers Showgrounds. After setting up and lunch I (Hans) went out for a good long walk. Good exercise and 4 caches to show for it.

An Adventure Lab Cache brought us back in this area, and we checked if there are some green dots left. Yes, so we answered the question of the AL and then looked around for this cache. Found it.

I'm on a mission to do two things... spell September this month, and clear out the traditional caches within a 10 km radius of home this year. This cache helps with the both! Given the terrain and difficulty level, I thought it was going to be a great cache to find with my two kids (8 and 11).

I was wrong... the swag in this cache contained, rubbers, $2 and tampons. I've cleared out the inappropriate swag, but it did put a sour note on our caching experience for the day.

Other than that, the cache and log are in ok condition. I've actually stopped here before looking for ALs, but never paused to find this cache. Glad to have it off my map now.

Dipping in a TB while I’m here.

Quick find. Heads up, there’s a lotta roadworks before this one

Last time I came here was for a stop on a lab cache. It was the during a big rain storm so whimped out and just collected the lab from the car but made note to come back when it was dry. Today a track in the dry grass lead me to GZ, signed our name and off we go for school pick up. TFTC.

Out for a very wet day of caching with nikid1. Our last cache for the day. Ended up here on one of the adventure labs & spotted this trad on the map. Was raining to hard for me to leave the nice dry car but nikid1 was up for the challenge & didn't let some water deter her, looks like a made a great choice of geocaching buddy!

Raining pretty hard now but KerriMG and I are here doing a lab cache, so I decided I really needed to find this even if it is teaming with rain. Walked through the water flowing along the side of the road and entered the long grass. Finally I spied it. Back to the car to dry off. TFTC.
