One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

Should you like to resurrect the cache please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

4.23. Unarchiving a Geocache

The archiving of a geocache is intended to be a permanent status. That is why only community volunteer reviewers and Geocaching HQ staff have the capability to unarchive it. This is done only in rare circumstances and only if it meets the current Geocache Listing Guidelines.

If a geocache is archived by a reviewer or staff for lack of maintenance it will not be unarchived.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache 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 page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Didn't find.... The area is completely burnt out

As the CO isn't active anymore, and the site is destroyed, see Landylovers log below 27 Feb 2016 there is no other option. Maybe someone will place a new cache nearby.
Sorry to see another oldie go.

7139 Cache Found

After spending the last few weeks settling in to my new abode and being domestic and stuff like that. Decided that I had to get back to doing what I like best Geo Caching. So I set out on a mini road trip to explore my new surrounds and hopefully pick a few caches along the way. Thanks for bringing me here

Thanks for the great cache and adventure reporaySmileSmile

Student free day - geocaching day I say.
This was the first of three in the area, I have driven past this cache far to many times, so it was nice to finally stop and have a look.
Tom was on top form and it didnt take him long to find this one.
All is well with this one.

We were just coming home from camping and decided to do some caches, it was nice easy find.TFTC
 
30-Sep-14
30/9/14 On our way home from a great week of camping at Imbil and decided to stop and do a few caches on the drive home. This was our first cache for the day. Arrived at GZ easily enough, although with a camper-van being towed behind, finding somewhere safe to park was a little tricky. We pulled up along the side of the road, made sure all was safe and across we went. The find was quick, we signed the log and off to continue our journey home and find some more caches. TFTC Smile

Gees...anther DNF. Not going too well on Imbil today Sad Hope I have better luck in Kenilworth.
 
17-May-14
As the CO has not logged on for quite awhile, and I was passing and remembered that there was a DNF on it recently, thought I'd check. All is good, container was where it was supposed to be, and the log is good.
Happy Caching.
 
21-Apr-14
Out for a nice bit of caching over Easter. Grabbed this one enroute to the forests for a bit of 4WDing. Quick find. Thanks for the cache!!
 
18-Apr-14
Quite a tricky find, but finally came to light. TFTC
 
05-Jan-14
I spent 15 minutes in the heat searching around where the GPS was pointing. Either the cache is not there or the coordinates are way out.
 
04-Oct-13
search abandoned after we discovered a big freaking snake.
 
22-Sep-13
On our way back to camping at the Hobson's Trail Event this was our last cache. Thanks for placing it here reporay. Nice to have so much off-road parking to access the cache. TNLNSL
 
22-Sep-13
In Imbil for the weekend event, and this was the next stop as we headed off for the day. Sweet-Bee and I combed the posted GZ and at least one of the alternative co-ords before Fangsoki and Captain Terror got bored and guided our efforts a little more precisely.
Thanks for placing this cache, reporay. Found in good condition.

Mrs Just a Trifle has just worked out how to update her GSAK database from the GPS to indicate those caches found. Well you know what that means don't you? Yep, we have found a few caches which we have not yet logged so now we are trying to catch up with the on-line logging. This was a quick find on our way to Xixau and Shenji's 10 Year - Hobsons Trail event. Thank you for having placed the cache reporay.

After over-nighting at Kennilworth a mornings caching was in order. Spent a while digging around for this one and must have checked the same spot several times before finally spotting the goods.
Thanks reporay

25-Jun-13
I was going back home past this one so I thought I'd give it another try. Went away unhappy last time so this time I was more philisophical and gave myself five minutes. At 4 minutes 59 seconds I happened to glance sideways and spotted something. Smile TFTC couldn't leave anything - too small!

Daughter and partner hooked. We are all wet but cache is well hidden and dry. Avoid the dangers here.

08-May-13
The tension in the air was palpable as I rolled into GZ [:o]
I had parked in the middle of the triangle and soon discovered the awful truth [:o]
I would have to make a lemming like dash across one of the roads to reach GZ Razz
Taking me life into me hands I ran, hoping that no gravel trucks appeared at that moment !!
Once in the relative safety of the forest, I soon found the cache safe and sound [^]
Another mad dash across the road and I was back at the geomobile.
Then the skool bus arrived and stopped because the driver thought I was dropping some skool chids off Red Face
I waved sheepishly back at the driver as he took off again.

Thanks for a stressful cache [^]
 
28-Apr-13
Thankfully the road was quiet and after a short search the cache appeared. Thanks reporay
 
06-Apr-13
Found quickly with geowife's help.

No joy here but I'll try again on a fine day, TFTC
 
24-Feb-13
Found this one. Full log to come Smile
 
24-Feb-13
Yesterday I was here with Gaz'n'Kab but we managed to DNF this one. Despite previous logs, very believable to not find thanks to a damn lot of places to hide a micro. I'm not really a fan of a micro in the bush, especially when it is a difficulty 1.5 with no hint. We gave up but at the event that evening I got a few hints and was keen to give it another go.

Today traveling past with Nyssaflutterby and membsec we stopped for this hunt. I quite liked the artwork on the nearby bus stop before we headed in for the cache. Hints were shared and we began looking. Four sets of eyes scouring the place still took several minutes before the beast was located. Thank NavStar for that! TFTC reporay Smile
 
24-Feb-13
We drove up quite close and started to search. It wasn't long before Mr. Herbz moved something and there was the prize. TFTC
 
24-Feb-13
I came in to look for this one on the way in to the area but was not able to find it - even then place had been scratched over already by then. I can't say I am a fan of the micro in a bush setting - but I am less of a fan when there is no hint.

But anyway - I had heard this was found the day before by Bedmaker and Tassiegirl13 so I came back for another look. I fossicked for another 15 minutes before I came up with it. Interesting how others can't believe that other cachers couldn't find it? Gee - do you think it might be something to do with the 1 million hiding places near GZ???

I have posted up the co-ordinates that worked for me today. The other day the posted co-ordinates put me at a lantana bush - and did again today. Hopefully, they will help someone.

Glad to have crossed this one off. The cache is in good condition. TFTC reporay Smile

This cache was part of our post- Forest Challenge caching today. Nyssaflutterby, Captain Terror and ourselves completed an epic day of caching with some great views, brilliant 4WD driving and great company - a most enjoyable day. Had made a quick check here yesterday without luck but prompted with information' last night' that others had found it we returned today. Took a little while but eventually NyssaFlutterby located the clever hide and another smilie was celebrated.
TFTC
 
24-Feb-13
After a DNF yesterday, membsec and myself were keen to give this one a go again! So with Captain Terror in our company and knowing the cache was definately still there we spread out and got down to business! After about 5 mins I finally found the cache tucked away safe and sound.

Found with TassieGirl13 on our way to the Forest Challenge Event near Imbil today.
We wanted a couple of finds to warm us up for the afternoon festivities and this was our first.
Took us a little while to finally track it down but persistence paid off and we finally found the right hiding spot.
TFTC.

Didn't find this one, to many hidy holes, ran out of daylight. Oh well maybe next time.

I was passing on the way home from Maleny on sunday, thought I would check on this one.
I have the pleasure to report that all is well and dry.
 
26-May-12
At the ARC with T-Tech.

Got to GZ easily but so many hidey-holes Sad We searched for maybe 20 minutes with no joy. Widened the area but still nothing. I started to be a lot more thorough than before, and eventually came up with the cache. So well hidden. Lots of cars going by today because of the Rally. TFTC, reporay.
 
26-May-12
Out with IolantheK and Jordan in Imbil.

No luck with this one. GPS was all over the place. Searched for ages, but in the end had to give up. Thanks
Went back for another look today (14 April) but still no luck.

I went back for the 3rd time and guess what I finally found it! I'm sure I looked here before, but it must have been well hidden. Thanks

Wandered over to this cache. Quick find. TNLN TFTC Thanks reporay
 
20-Nov-11
An easy one, read the logs first this time, saved a lot of heart ache. Trust your GPS. They don't work too well under trees.
I would call the cache size "Small" not a "micro"
 
09-Sep-11
Not at all sure why people have trouble with this one, trust your GPS and use your geo eyes and it should pop out at you SL TFTC

XC heading north between clients... Decided to stop here anyway even though previous logs indicated it may be difficult...
Walked straight up to likely spot and quickly had it in hand.. Nice placement.

Gone! Another DNF on a hot and sticky Easter weekend.
 
23-Nov-10
Out and about on a cache raid of the Sunshine Coast. After reading the last 2 DNFs we were pleased to spot something that didn't belong and that we were able to log as 2nd to find. Good hide T4TC.
 
07-Nov-10
Saw the previous did not find and thought we would give it a go. The cache searching device gave us a spot with no luck after much searching. Like previous log lots of places to look. Will have to try again maybe with different GPS device.
