Logs
As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. 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/make available 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.
I have to agree with the last 4 cachers the cache itself is most likely gone for a walk.
Finding the maze and the plaque was done and deciphering the clues was straight forward enough . Also the place the clues took us to had all the hallmarks of a hide but no cache in site. It is a shame that COs do not look after their caches it sort of spoils it for everybody.

No issue with WP1 however WP2 needs to be checked it may have walked since it was last found
After bagging all the other Junee caches, this one spoilt a 100% for the day. Had a really good look, no trolls and no cache was found
The maze has seen better days
And I have to agree with Mona Vale Dave, this would not have happened if Ben was still on the job
But be it as it may, I found the centre and the clues.
A quick calculation.... a quick double check and correction of the calculation... and I was off to find GZ
Once there the cache was an easy find [^]
Again, this area needed a bit of Ben's input, how the standards have slipped

Found on a drive home from Darlington Point. I located WPT1 and the required information easily enough then strolled to GZ for a bit of a search which was fortunately screened from most of the passing cars. Cache found at the 3rd place I looked. The maze at WPT1 is looking a bit tired these days but I know just the man in town to fix it!. Many thanks.
The maze is a bit sad but after lunch we gathered the info and soon had the cache in hand. Thanks Hinklenator for an interesting hide.
An interesting maze. It clearly seen better days though. Nearly missed what we were looking for. Then off to the cache. TaurusSix kept saying "look there" but I had preconceived ideas. Then I looked there and it was found.
Found it. TFTC. in good condition. Lid wasn't closed fully and small spider had moved in, which dropped out and scurried off. Maze has had some work on it lately so easy to navigate and find clues.
Found GZ quickly but searched for the cache without luck then we found the log sheet in the garden! A search in the car produced another container to put the log in and pack in location .
Took a little while to find the first info, but after that it was easy. Nice final spot, too. TFTC.
The maze is a bit rough, but I imagine they are hard to maintain. I was VERY surprised at what the details were on when I found it. As GZ it did a very good job of hiding from me, but persistence paid off. I am glad it was early and the place was deserted. Thanks.

Hedge is a little overgrown. But once that was completed it was a quick stroll and then a rather long search of all sides and angles until the cache finally showed itself. Well hid, TFTC!
There was a lot of searching involved but the goods were found with a lot of relief. Weren't ready for another disappointment
As McPhan mentioned, we often miss the multi's if on a trip out of town but this one sounded appealing, and it wasn't too difficult. The logsheet is wet again however, after recent finders put in some dry paper. Thanks Hinklenator.
A quick decision and we were on the hunt for this one. McPhan made the find at the WP and then after the short walk, the cache was located after a few minutes. A little tricky to spot if you don't look closely.
Good fun as usual though. Thanks Hinklenator.

Scored with McPhan, Winglen and SolDeLune, Sol having the magic touch, making the grab on an area I had already explored, obviously not too closely. Maze could do with a trim, but we will leave that to the council.
Thanks Hinklenator for a great location and cache.

4518. [font=Century Gothic][green]Normally McWindelune7 don't look at multis while on an invasion but this trip we decided to do some quick ones. This was supposed to be one of those. Needless to say it took a bit longer than expected. Finally it was located in the first spot one of the team looked in(and for once it wasn't me)

2nd part had us looking everywhere.
Paper very wet, put in some new paper.

I agree with previous poster, info in maze does seem to be missing. Long grass previously mentioned is now mowed, so maybe the maintenance crew removed or damaged the sign? 3 of us looked around the maze for a good 15minutes.
I struggled to find any information at the maze even though I thought we were in the middle. Perhaps it is hidden better than I thought?
In any case, took a punt on the final location and after searching a few spots came up with the goods. TFTC!

Got out of the car at the waypoint and said to the geomum its a maze, thought I would be there forever trying to find the information. Long grass but soon had what I needed. Off to gz and after alittle searching spotted the littlle thing. Just before some muggles showed up making it hard to place back TFTC
Spent the day doing the caches around Junee. A quick find and another micro ticked off. Thanks for bring us up this way.
This one had lots of adventuring for the boys - first a maze to go mad in, then a chance to explore a second bush. Spotted several little frogs, numerous lizards and heaps of spiders.
This was our last cache for Junee - done them all. Now to move on up towards cootamundra.

Out & about with DJ Rascal on a nice drive through the area. Thankfully this was muggle free today, and after a short walk through the start of the hedge maze the boys had found the details ned for GZ.
Quick calculations and Mrs H & DJ set off on foot, whilst Big Ez moved the car - once again, a bit of teamwork and the cache was son discovered.
Really enjoy this quick multi & GZ was a beautiful spot. Many thanks again Hinklenator for showing us the area.

Out and about with team Haveanez.
Its a shame the maze has been allowed to deteriorate to the state it has. We found the center quickly and coords were worked out to Gz. Must say that Gz is far more pleasant. All quiet around here today as well and Mrs H had the cache in hand in short time.
Cheers.

Took my boyfriend and his brother out to see what geocaching was all about at 9.00pm!! Was fun fighting the spiders to WP1 then hunting around for GZ! =) Thanks for the cache!
Found at 1050 on our Junee caching run. We arrived at waypoint 1 to find a worker trimming the hedge which made it difficult to look for the required info. After reading some previous logs we made an educated guess and found GZ. We returned later on after the worker had left and found the required info. Another enjoyable cache.
Thanks Hinklenator.
Thanks Hinklenator.
#1035 @ 3.45pm. Well when we mentioned hedge maze, the GeoPrincess actually put the DS down and got out of the car for a walk. Lucky she had gumboots on as the maze was a little damp from the previous days downpour. She had a hoot running around whilst Dad & the Queen kept a look out for the necessary information, found but not in a manner we were expecting. Onto GZ there were some muggle kids hanging around but the Queen pretended to have the dropsies to retrieve and replace the cache - muggle children none the wiser. TNLNSL TFTC Hinklenator [^]
Found in the company of baby&Mrsgopher. Found the sneaky information and were soon on our way to GZ. The site of baby and Mrs Nodalot crawling around on their stomachs was a bit off putting, but baby came up with the prize.The hot Australian sun was making it hard to touch anything metal but baby has hands of steel. Good cache. Tnx for the hide.
1415 Found by baby&Mrs gopher in company with Nodalot at 1250.Information gathered now for a walk.Clever camo and an easy find when there..TNSL visited CacheMover coin.Tnx Hinklenator
Worked hard on this one without success. Have found several of Hinklenator's caches today so felt I was used to the style. Returned twice and found the correct location but alas.... Got sick of lying on my stomach groping around in the hot sun on Australia Day, so had to abandon the hunt. Will return... Didn't need to get my feet wet eh?
very interesting cache driven past so many times did'nt know the maze existed signed log TFTC
This was a easy multi in a great spot, just a shame the maze is looking a little worse for wear, enjoyed the stroll to the cache location. Top cache, thanx Hinklenator
Should of brought the whipper snipper for this one. After a couple of educated guesses we found the right spot. TFTC.
This was an interesting place but quite a bit overgrown making it hard to find the required details to do the maths. Had a guess at all the details from info at posted co-ords. After my second guess we headed off to an area wich made sense. Thanks for the cache in a nice part of town.
As a result of the recent rain we initially had some difficulty finding what we needed at the WP but once I spotted it and the calculations were complete we were off to GZ where I came up with a relatively easy find. I love these little gems that caching brings me to that I probably otherwise would never have stopped at - thanks for the fun little multi-cache.
I am pretty sure we solved the first part and the description of where this took us fitted but after a really good search, no luck today.
No trouble with the maze or at GZ, a nice little park and very neat and well kept too. Thanks for the cache Hinklenator

A nice day for a bike ride & for caching too, so which one... why not both.
Nice maze & found the numbers OK. Not such a quick find at GZ, and a good hide too.

Have seen the maze prior ,but its always nice to return and enjoy a well done multi over several spots. Spotted the goods in its nifty location on a blustery morning and penciled in the second to find position. Many thanks to Hinklenator for pleasant multi that will be liked by all to follow.
FTF TFTC great little multi amazing town for caches the co-ordinates were spot on having a great night with FTF
