Logs
I was out here today for a work gig, and this was in my GPS as available (must have been an old file). Anyway, it was easily found in the outer top rim of the tree-stump at GZ, so I am logging a find even though it currently shows as archived.
Cache owner is either unwilling or unable to maintain the cache. Cache maintenance includes listing maintenance including updating any changes to the text, updating coordinates, removing needs maintenance attributes and enabling the listing.
I am archiving the listing for the time being. Should the owner decide to maintain the cache in the near future (next 30 days), just contact me (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, I'll be happy to unarchive it.

I'd gone past this a few times ignoring it as it was disabled. Noticed the recent found logs so thought I'd check on it today. As I pulled up I spotted it lying on the ground. Cache all good and I signed the log. Not sure which of the two objects it was in before so it put it back in the most likely candidate. Won't be hard to find for anyone.
Thanks.
Thanks.
After seeing the previous catcher had found we came & had a look. Super easy find don't know how we missed this last time (probably wasn't in that spot previously). Anyway great to finally knock this one off the list. TFTC
Reperio at 1340.
After spending the morning completing the WRPT series with TeamSenz...we stopped by a few caches before heading off to the Twelve/Twelve/TwoThousandTwelve event...and even though we weren't aware of this one being disabled...the cache was still at GZ...

Was in the area With MV, so we decided to grab a few caches. This cache didnt take long to find.
We spent the morning doing some of the WRPT series while the weather was a bit cooler but then decided to find some caches where we could retreat to the car more easily and enjoy the airconditioning. This was one that was close to the location we were caching in so were happy we were able to make a find.
Nice work with the cache thanks to The Estreich Clan.

Not sure how I missed this one last time and I didn't realise it had been disabled, but the cache is still there and apart from the log being very full is in good condition.
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm 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 30 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 month or so to keep everyone up to date.
Lovely day today, Didn't realize read previous logs was DNF but found your cache as hide very well but lognote full with wet, need replace new one very possiable.... Thanks Sevabo for lend us here
Tried our luck here but apparently we forgot to bring it. Found a bug but when I poked it....arhhhh yep it's real. You can never be to sure with caches. Be back another day. Thanks
Searched this area really thoroughly and did 3 sweeps and came up with nothing. I hope it is still there. Will return another day!
No luck for us today .... Looks like a new Telegraph Pole has gone in next to GZ .... I hope they haven't muggled it
maybe another day

No luck with this one. We scratched around but dnf. Could the owner confirm that the cache is still there?
Found by Mary & David at 1022. Plenty of grass here. Can't believe how much rain there has been. Our thanks again to The Estreich Clan.
Not having long tonight I popped 'up the road' (at least kind of up the road), to complete caches around that area rather than around work. TFTC
This was a quick find while heading back home from windsor. Thanks for the cache. The weather was great. No mugglers around.

Once I worked out which side of the railway this was on, I drove to GZ. As I got there and parked, I found only a couple of places where the cache could be. Found it nicely camo'd and SL again after Steveishere (no, not staking you). Replaced again with camo. Clever little hide, TFTC.

After just finding the cache down in Rivo I new I was not far from this and why not make a round trip and pick up some smileys!
After a little scratching around I found SL and Rntd safe.

set orf to find this morning also had to go to Macquarrie 4X4 to get some light protectors for the spotties. I then realised they were on opposite sides of the track. But that wasn't that big a disaster. So I looked around for awhile and then read the previous logs, they were no help! wot to do? so i dawdle around,go back to the car to read the description then go back and see ' where'd that come from? didn't notice it before have alook and whacko the diddely.
Thanks Acko

Found an easy way around to here from "Vineyard Oval" and made a quick find.
Lots of traffic use this road at this time of the day.

Looked for this one in the dark, and came face to face with a Redback D= Found it though, a safe distance away from the webs. TFTC
For anyone coming from the Vineyard Oval cache, the quickest way to cross the railway track is to turn right onto Windsor Road (from park road) and take the next right onto Level Crossing Road.

Yep... "park" and "wood" .... a reasonably quick find in between downpours.

Got to love night caching with the bugs & spiders....had CIH quite quickly by geodad....TFTC
Not being a local it took me a little while to work out how to get to the other side of the railway line. The cache was in the second place I looked. Come on, you could get something bigger than that there? At least a small! TFTC
#3 on my Riverstone cache hunt this afternoon.
A quick find in the second place I searched.

Note to other cachers, you can't get across from the Vineyard Oval cache to this cache, unless you go well south or north, as the new road to Windsor has cut off the old railway level crossing.
I went to the wrong object at GZ, until I realised there was two of them...Thanks T E C, a simple but good find.

I was on the wrong side of the railway line coming into this cache. 5 Minutes later I had the cache in hand. It wasn't in the place I thought it would be.
Nice hide. Thanks Estreich Clan.

Well, there was two of them, and NickoHeap chose the wrong one and I chose the right one, and I found it. Nice and easy. Thanks
This one was really a process of elimination and after a brief search I uncovered the hide with the kiddies.
Thanks to The Estreich Clan for the cache.

It's always a bit doubtful when you undertake to search for a micro in the middle of the night in unknown terrain!
However, this one was nearly right on my route from the Blue Mountains back to work -- if in a somewhat obscure spot -- and I found that I could even use the GeoBuru2's headlights to illuminate the roadside GZ quite effectively.
There are several likely places to search here, and of course I chose the correct one last!
Nevertheless, I seemed to be far enough away from Mulgrave houses not to be bothering anyone with my midnight stopover, and was successful sooner than I expected.
Published coordinates were accurate. Little container was in good shape and the log sheets were dry. TNLNSL.
Many thanks to The Estreich Clan for another good one!
Now off to bed . . .

We finally found this one and we have got to say, it was not easy. We have fun searching. SL TFTC
Better late than never, 2nd attempt and i cant believe i missed it first time!!!
Well, we hadn't been to the wrong side of the tracks before!?! It is nicer than the industrial side. Which may then be the wrong side!?!

I was sitting at home with a stomach ache from the chocolate milk drink I had an hour ago when dam, a new cache and not too far. I grabbed my gear and headed out the door, got to GZ at a little after 9 and started reading the description, hmmm a park and grab fanstastic. Well that's what I though .... for the first half an hour of fruitless searching, for the seond half an hour I kept thinking I must be blind and for the third and last half an hour I thought I must be blind and stupid too. My torch was fully charged and a bright one at that, I looked in, under, over, up, down and around everything within 10m of GZ and found nothing!!!
