Hasn’t been found for over 2 years now, 7 DNF's and even the recent find log suggests the cache is missing........
Maintenance log was over a year ago, think it’s time for some action to take place

Hasn't been found since Mar 2017. Found in crook of tree with help from intrepid 20-something friend and Dommy81. No container, only old log pages from 2011-2013, not able to sign as log not in good shape. Messaged CO that cache needs maintenance. Visiting Australia for 4 months from Florida, USA.
Didn't read the previous logs before parking right next to GZ on a chilly night out with Aquilus1. We had a look around, but found nothing. Thanks anyway.
In the area visiting son Wombats Inc. Searched the obvious place but couldn’t locate it. Searched around some more but no luck. Hasn’t been found for 10 months so it is probably gone. Perhaps the CO could check and verify its existence.
Saw the obvious spot. Read the last posts, did the same with same results. Nice frog said hello though
The challenge was (a) to get there without being skittled and (b) to try and ignore angry Noisy Miners nesting in the area! Ascended, as suggested, found the lovely hidey-hole but no cache. Descended, donned builder's gloves, ascended yet again and very bravely raked and prodded with no joy. Enjoyed the experience though and will out on the Watch List (growing!!)
Had a good look up and up some more, looked in hidey holes and got nothing. Easy climb, even in the dark.
I had a happy morning with Bettyboo3747 walking, chatting and oh yes caching in the area. As Monty (my new GPSr) and I still aren't talking the same language, I hauled Little Red Riding Hood (aka my old GPSr ) out of the dark. Unfortunately I forgot to reprogram her (no maps!) No worries we still had fun and mostly were successful - 12 finds and 2DNFs.
After walking around the wetlands and surrounds we decided that it was time for a bite to eat. On the way we decided that one more would round the morning out very nicely. Alice (my car Nuivi) told us that we were passing the GZ of this cache. We drove around the circle, found a parking spot and ambled over to the GZ. After doing as the hint said Bettyboo searched and searched. Meanwhile I had found a pencil on the ground and after further looking around, I also discovered the log lying on the ground. After signing duties were completed I placed the log and pencil in a ziplock bag which Bettyboo placed in the hidey hole.

In urgent need of maintenance by the CO. Container missing and log book in bad shape, as per my log.
#11346. Day 9 of our two week Canberra Holiday with Robmc. A morning out caching with Smitten Granny to gather up a few more caches and have a social catch-up. We had a very pleasant walk around the lake and ended up with 12 finds and 2 DNF's for the morning before adjourning for a coffee and snack,and then homeward bound.
Will log a separate Needs Maintenance Log. I climbed up into the tree and found the most obvious hiding place. However, there was no cache container or anything else up there. Smitten Granny found a very tatty log book on the ground and a pencil. We signed the log, put everything in a new plastic bag and replaced in the tree. Needs urgent CO attention.
Thanks Minifig Ant

Saturday 3 September 2016 - a cold windy overcast Spring day spitting rain intermittently as we walked over 5.6km in 2.5hrs to find 11 from 14 caches. Quick and easy find. Thx muggle husband. TFTC Minifig Ant.
Awesome hint, little ones loved it.
However, the rains got to it. Notes are all waterlogged.

Thankfully reasonably easy reach. Old log is soaked, replacement is well on the way to a similar fate. Needs a bag
A quick find after playing chicken with the traffic!
The container is in good nick but the log sheets are saturated.
Great location for GZ.

Hi Minifig Ant, you might want to check on this. Despite the hide and the container looking in good condition, the log sheets are soaking wet.
I had a night time dash to cross the road and find the cache. I can confirm the cache remains soaking wet. Thanks for the cache.
A fairly quick find on my way to work today. A few cobwebs to deal with but apart from that all good. The cache has lots of paper sheets that are nearly all full.
Thanks
Thanks
A slight detour out from Jerra. on the way home and a quick find . TFTC SL TNLN Cheers 4Now
The RoddyCs are visiting Canberra for Easter We set aside today to find 100 caches to complete a challenge. This is the last of BettyBoo3747's challenges we have to complete, so we have a great day for it around Jerrabomberra then down to Captains Flat
I took the job of leaving Mrs RoddyC searching for an eventual DNF at #16 Jerrabomberra pathways, and marching over the the near-center of this huge roundabout, Glad it was so large, as it meant the passing traffic was incognizant of my ascension antics! . Enjoyed this one,
Found at 8.50am on 20th April 2016. TFTC.

Linden/6 & Immyky, returning from Goulburn to Brisbane (via Victorian border & ACT LOL ...).
It would NOT be right to ignore all the caches en-route! LOL ...
Day 4, Goulburn to Goulburn (via Victoria & ACT)..
Our 61st cache on this trip.
Only realised there was a cache here as we were driving past.
Detoured to GZ where Geo-Mamma rose to the occasion.
Left our mark & replaced as found.

Saw that a few caches had been replaced so thought I would come back out and see how much I could get done. Heard a noise and realised I was getting swooped. But it wasn't a magpie which was weird. Signed log and replaced. Tftc
#1244 1 of 10 today.
I have a 'spare' week of leave to use up. Hmmm what should I do ? Sit around at home ? Not likely !
I had a couple of spare hours after lunch today so I decided to head out to Jerrabomberra. I've tackled about 1/2 the pathways series already and thought it was time for another go.
I was actually ging to start woth #23 but it was too muggly, so I wandered across to thevery large roundabout. It could be a park in it's own right. A quick find in the end.
Thanks for the cache Minifig Ant.

found it parked our car next to the ones for sale batgirls hoping someone will offer her money for it
I found this cache while my mum was doing shopping duties at the Jerrabomberra shopping centre. After an unfortunate DNF, I carefully walked across the road and entered the vegetated circle. Nice quick find in the roundabout - I like the camouflage! Thanks Minifig Ant.
After 3 DNFs in a row, I was losing heart, so we were overjoyed to find this one.
It was early evening, so the Ridgeo-pup and I decided to give this one a go.
A very nice hide and a pleasant spot even if it is enclosed by bitumen. TFTC Minifig Ant

#402: After dodging the traffic, a quick grab added one more to our found list. If only it was higher!!
Tftc, was in a sad. Condition is was open and log is all scrunched up with no order... awesome tree however!!!
Felt rather exposed, pretending to be busy while waiting on muggles to pass, but eventually all was quite and we quickly grabbed the cache, signed log and returned ASAP. Thank you for this fun spot.
We were visiting our friends at Burra today and then headed off to the beautiful Goolgong Dam to get the series of caches. A beautiful warm day with a cooling breeze made conditions perfect for our two hour walk. After doing the series Brucie got into his "just one more" mode so we managed to find a few more caches on our way to Isaacs. [^][^] Thanks to Minifig Ant for placing this cache.
Found on an ACT (and beyond) caching raid with Hoojar over 48hrs. We did some bike riding, plenty of walking and driving, some pouring rain and a bit of heat in the sun.
A quick one as we tackled the many caches around the suburb.

When steeba suggested a trip to Canberra and Queanbeyan to tackles some more power trails, I could hardly say no! Eventaully our diaries aliigned, and this was to be the weekend. We headed down on Friday evening, and were home again 48 hours later. A great weekend with lots of walking, riding, rain, heat, wind, and caches, lots and lots of caches!
A dash to the cache and up before getting too wet in the rain.
Cheers

lucky find, all we knew is that it was somewhere on the roundabout. But found it.
Accompanied with Sevabo and Skyejam for the day before they return back to Sydney... Signed the log. Thanks Minifig Ant..
Great day out for caching with Everlasting and skyejam - enjoyed the travelling. Thanks for the caches around here.
Found the cache with Everlasting and sevabo. Thank you Minifig Ant for bringing us here on the lovely sunny day.
A great spot for a cache.
Somebody had placed 6 sticky marshmallows in the cache, which is not officially allowed in geocaching. I removed these, but unfortunately had to leave them on the ground as they were so sticky and I had nowhere on me to place them. I guess they will dissolve very quickly in the rain and air. Perhaps a muggle did this....anyway, the cache was safe and dry.
Thanks,

Good morning out with the kids. What are beautiful sunny day to be out exploring and riding bikes... with a bit of a treasure hunt!!
Had a hard time convincing the kids that we should leave the Marshmallows for others that might be more hungry.
Spent a bit of time just sitting in the sun and kicking the football. What a great area to hang out.

I've just had brekky with Knightech. We're having a couple of days off. We're going to do a few caches to get over dinner and drinks at Chez Knightech's last night. This one was a walk across the huge roundabout, followed by a quick find. TFTC!! This is my first of five for the day. Good hide.
Gosh! Talk about muggle central! Found it. But a bit of an ask to get without being so obvious! Tried my best.
958 22/30 for day. I could actually park on the roundabout. Quick walk and find. This roundabout is huge. TFTC Minifig Ant.
#2185 - 16:45; Headed off for an afternoon caching run to Jerrabomberra, but thought I might clear a few of the caches along the border before I crossed over. Made it into Jerra and parked the geomobile near the local wateringhole and made off on foot for a few quick finds. This one was a quick find after reaching the dizzy heights required . TFTC Minifig Ant
Had a great time caching in Jerrabomberra! Luckily this roundabout is big enough to allow parking right in the middle of it. Approaching GZ I was thinking were would I hide it? And yes that is where I found it!

Climbed up, saw a potential hidy hole but nothing. Spotted something at ground level beside
base of tree and hey presto, found it. Put it back where I assumed it should have been:-)
