As there has been no response by the cache owner to the previous note, I am forced to archive this listing.

As with most years we found ourselves with a break up in the North East between Christmas and New Years.
We headed into Albury/Wodonga for a spot of caching.
Managed to find this one on our travels.
Lots of ants on and in this one.
Thanks for the hide.

Found today with the family.
It was a really fun day out.
Thanks for placing the cache for us to find.

Found today with Eddie, Mum and Dad.
I had a great day out and about the area.
Thanks for placing the cache for us to find.

[center][u]MAINTENANCE REQUIRED?[/u][/center]
[navy]I notice from one or more recent log entries that this cache [u]appears[/u] to be in need of owner intervention. Therefore, I am temporarily disabling it so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Prompt attention by cache owners to any log that indicates anything could be amiss will be greatly appreciated by all seekers. The guideline advises; "if you can't check/fix it straight away then Disable it till you can." see here http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance and here's how; http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 and check out this Blog: http://www.geocaching.com/blog/2015/03/you-hid-your-first-geocache-now-what/

Please respond to this situation by 14th January to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness. If you require more time, please be sure to post a "Write Note" log (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

And don't forget, once you have addressed the issue, post both an "Owner Maintenance" log, see here; http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404 and an "Enable Listing" log, see here; https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 to get your cache up and running again.[/navy]

A quick find while out caching this afternoon. The lid is missing for this one. Might want to take a look. TFTC.

ants have found themselves a new home

Another great find on a geocaching trip around the area. Cache needs some TLC TFTC

Dropped in to do this geocache on my down to attend the Melbourne MEGA Event.

Icky cache, full of man eating ants, needs maintenance badly. There was a caravan and camping show on here today, with a quick explaination of my intention, i was allowed free entry

Easy find thanks.

Nice easy find

This was such a lovely walk to the GZ. This one had us stumped for a minute and when I was about to mark as "not found" & muggled. The "real" cache was quick in hand. Tricky, we loved this one! Great find for our 50th!

The 8 legged cache guardian was as startled as me. TFTC

A lovely walk around the lake with ducks and many dogs being exercised. Thank you for bringing us here . TFTC. SL TNLN

JoeyLovesTreasure, ZQX and I decided to make a road trip to Albury this weekend to co-incide with the Melbourne Mega intro event being held today. But while we were in the area, decided to pick up a few local caches - it would be rude not to!

Third cache on JLT's and my early morning cache run. Quickly found, although I was lookin for a larger container!

Thanks Haveanez for the cache!

Found with Ducky0303. There is an actual one here, dont be fooled by the other one.

Found it, TFTC

Easy find. Good view over the lake as well

TFTC!!!

Pearce Morrison family nothing to write on

Quick find.

I think I found the old cache container on the ground.

Nice little walk and a quick cache. A nearby plastic container tricked us but found it in the end.

Beautiful spot & just right for a picnic!

Had a quick look around the area with the kids. Not too much happening around here. Found it without any trouble. My 3yo daughter took a frozen sharpener and left a necklace. TFTC.

1st geocache!

Thanks for the cache in a nice little part of the world

Never been to this spot before and it was a lovely day for caching. TFTC.

easy find on a day with hQ88. tftc.

[:(!] Had a couple of hours to fill in before heading off to Geelong and what better way of filling in the time is to grab a few caches, this was one of them.

I like it

Another one of the list

Ready to go

New log in place

The cache container was dripping wet on the inside, and the contents of both ziplock bags were soaked due to some holes. Unfortunately we didn't have any bags with us to switch them with. It might be worth giving this cache a bit of a dry-out.

An easy park, walk, and grab. Some great little picnic spots out here. We've lived in the area for our whole lives and we've never been out this way! Thanks haveanez.

Offline to replace container and log

Came to get this one a few days ago but someone had drove their camper van over the barrier and made camp right next to gz :/ .Came back tonight and all was clear, we soon had the goods in hand. Good thing too cos the mozzies here are large and carnivorous. Log is very damp but we were able to leave our mark. Tftc.

This was our final cache for the day. As we were walking across the grass to GZ the heavens briefly opened up but thankfully the rain stopped to allow us to sign the log book. TFTC

Off early today grabbing a few caches, thought with it being Sunday and just after 7am this would be an easy grab.
Well that all changed when I seen a campervan parked right where the cache was!
I drove past a little and thought nope bugger it I'm now a tree lover looking at different trees in the area
(that was my cover story).
I slowly walked right into GZ watching the campervan like a hawk & trying to look like I was meant to be there & doing nothing much, I was about 10mtrs away, sneakily grabbed the cache, no sooner had I put my hand on it a ute turned up with a fella & his 2 dogs, he let them out for a run for a minute while I was signing the log called his dogs back and was gone as quick as he was there.
Meanwhile back at the ranch/camper van there was no movement or anyone peeking out the window so I put the cache back and took a photo of the tree & left.
My heart didn't stop racing until I was about 100mtrs away from GZ.
I'd normally not attempt a cache with muggles so close but I felt I had this one covered so to speak.
Thanks for the cache, good spot!

Very nice spot for a cache, easy finding! TFTC!

Nice easy stroll in the park with khanman47 and NacSpaceman. Quick find by NacSpaceman. TFTC

Found with Nacspaceman and Mainebirds. Nice evening walk. TFTC.

Fairly easy find and a nice view. I was a little worried about the vehicle parked near GZ but it was only a muggle having a nap in his car. Dropped off Geocoin. TFTC

Nice easy one for the kids. Took a leopard and rainbow pen and left an octopus and starfish. TFTC!

Found with cristabel & the little geokids while the big geokids were at school. Never been in here before (apart from to the wiggles concert). Will definitely have to come back with a picnic. Great hidey spot. Quick park n grab. TFTC & bringing us to a new spot in town

Found this one with a newly converted Muggle! (3girlsgma)

Day 9 of the August streak, and we went out to grab this one, despite it being a bit wet. In hindsight, the lakeside are probably wasn't the smartest spot to choose in the rain, but we've been meaning to get this one for a while, so seemed as good an opportunity as any. A quick stroll from the locked gate, and we soon had the cache in hand. TFTC

One of 14 caches on a cold and foggy day trip to Albury / Wodinga
Thanks foe ths cache haveanez

It's always nice to be the first to sign the log book! A nice walk along the lake and a view of the circus. TFTC

New SMALL container in place - Had to downsize.

Ready to go. New 400ml sistema in place.

Will need to check this one

Found where we think it should have been but no luck.

Never been in around these lakes after driving past quite a few times. Had a look around the other side first an saw a few kayakers before coming back to GZ and making an easy find. Was good to have a quick find after a few DNFs today.
TFTC!

FOUND WITH INDIANA GLEESON
