This cache is classified as a Traditional. The coordinates listed on a Traditional cache page should be the **actual location of the cache.** From a number of logs, it would seem the Listed Co-ordinates provided for this cache are some 26m from where the cache is actually located. From the guidelines [Listings must contain accurate GPS coordinates.](https://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx?expand=1#coordinates)

CO has not responded to request to update the co-ordinates - cache archived due to not being Guideline compliant and lack of response from CO

If you wish to contact me please send your email via my profile - [Bunjil,](https://coord.info/PR9GZ0K) and quote both the cache name and GC number please..

----------

### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED?** ###

----------

This cache appears to be in need of owner intervention as there are one or more comments in regard to the accuracy of the cache coordinates. The cache has been temporarily disabling 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.

A basic tenet of geocaching is that listings must contain accurate GPS coordinates. At the moment it would seem that this requirement is not being met in regard to this cache, see the guideline here: [**Listings must contain accurate GPS coordinates.**](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#coordinates) Could you please update the listing with accurate coordinates? A how-to is here: [**How do I update coordinates for my geocache?**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=61)

Please respond to this situation by **28th November** 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 indicating a date when you believe the situation will be resolved.

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

As per my log the coordinates need updating.

This cache was found today and brings our overall cache find tally to 10166. We found this as part of our 2018 Round Australia trip.

Like so many others I found this one a long way away from the GZ. I've included coordinates so the CO can update them.

Thanks vra for the cache.

Found it. Took to the road with geo 4 year old to see the dish and do the peak hill gold experience. Was a saturday well spent and even a few caches to be found along the way. Really enjoyed it. Would be great to see more caches out this way though. Nice drive dubbo to parkes.

Found while on a caching loop around the zoo. The GPS was pointing about 25m on the other side of the road, but looking around the location was obvious.
Thanks for the hide vra.

Travelling in the area for a few days. Found 20 metres away across the road. Log may be stamped Coongoola or small logs signed CG. SL

Thanks for placing this cache vra

Found as ZimmyFamily 8/10/14. Due to not caching for a few years & forgetting I had a different logon, I'm re-logging under the alias I now use. Thanks

In town to take the kids to the zoo.

We found this after reading through old logs. GZ was on the opposite side of the road to listed coords. TNLN TFTC

Quick find after a day at the zoo. TFTC.
 
29-Mar-17
The roadworks nearly put me off but after many km's and 4 dnf's I needed to fill the date on the calendar! Not sure what the lollypop man thought of me as I checked out all the signs in the vicinity! As a previous log mentioned gz was out by about 27m so I used geosense (and the hints) instead and soon had cache in hand.

TFTC Smile
 
22-Mar-17
Was a DNF on this one as there was a lot of road works and no signs were any where near GZ.
Thanks vra

Stopped past the cache site to also get a look at the Dubbo Zoo. Cache is in good order. Cheers!
 
10-Dec-16
Maybe I gave up too soon but not where I thought it would've. Not where I guessed it might be and not where the GPS said. Cyclists started to arrive so I took my leave. Oh well
 
24-Oct-16
Found at 0944 Found this using the clue because my GPS had me 27M's away. but a quick find anyway. TFTC.
 
04-Oct-16
Catching up on some late logs from our trip back from QLD and a couple of days we had touring in and around Dubbo. We knew the co-ord's might be trying to push us in another direction but the hint helped make this a quick find, TFTC vra.
 
03-Oct-16
Quick find
 
25-Sep-16
Cheers. Coordinates/GPS had us look in the wrong area but got there in the end. TFTC
 
25-Sep-16
waiting for walkers then found
 
21-Sep-16
While staying in Dubbo on our way home from Bundy we swung by a few caches for a smilie or two.
This was a weird experience because the gps said there <---but the sign and cache was there ---> however by standing there <--- you could see it was over there--> maybe that was the point yeah?!
Thanks for the confusion and fun vra!
 
16-Sep-16
After a great walk at a local tourist attraction, we found a few caches on the way back to the van

11-Aug-16
Like others, we found the coords were out but we followed the signs. The clue helped. TFTC.
 
07-Aug-16
signed and headed further east
 
20-Jul-16
As everyone has said the coordinates are a bit off but it is not hard to figure out where the cache is.
 
08-Jul-16
Found but co-ords about 20mt out. TFTC
 
03-Jul-16
Nice quick find and log
Many thanks for the cache .

Co ords way out but found after check other logs
 
03-Jun-16
Found , gps bit out
 
25-May-16
This find was not as quick as it should have been as the co-ordinates are quite a way out and wanted us on the opposite side of the road to reality. Using some geo sense got us to the right place and then the find was made. Our name was then added to the log before putting the cache back in its hiding place. Thank you vra for placing this cache to be found and enjoyed.

#5 of 5 caches found this afternoon after a long day at the Zoo. This took a good deal longer than expected, until I read previous logs and discovered that I was on the wrong side of the road. Not having Little Red Riding Hood (aka my GPSr ) with me, I couldn't get better coordinates to share. TFTC SL

nice easy find today, found while in dubbo for a break. decided to do a few more finds around the zoo, thanks for the cache and for bring me here.
 
14-Apr-16
Came back this morning on the way to the Zoo and the workmen have set up camp here so couldn't try again. This one will now have to wait for our next visit to Dubbo.
 
13-Apr-16
After a nice day at the Zoo we decided to drive around the outside of the Zoo and search for a few caches along the way. Now heading back into town, stopped on side of highway and walked over to GZ where we found nothing obvious. Looked at hint, and walked a short distance up the road and again found nothing. Then started reading previous logs and realised where we should be looking but a man in a van parked right in front of the structure and began opening the surrounding Telstra/Electricity boxes and pits and started to do some work. Being late I the day we weren't going to wait for him to finish working and leave, so we left empty handed. We will be back...
 
09-Apr-16
Nice quick find TFTC
 
04-Apr-16
A quick find today as we were out and about. Coords are about 12m out. Map has it on the other side of the road, but it's on the obvious structure.
 
24-Feb-16
All Good
 
22-Feb-16
Travelling south for work and stopped along the way to grab a few caches along the way and this was one of them.

After parking nearby and a short search the cache was soon in hand.

Once the log was signed all was returned as found.

Trip to the zoo with the twin terrors - thought I'd stop on the way back into town for this cache as they had fallen asleep (a big day). As per previous posts the coordinates are a little off.....
 
08-Feb-16
Nice and easy found quickly it was where it supposed to be
 
12-Jan-16
Sign?

Day 2 of a 2 day road trip back home after a really great holiday on the Gold Coast. A long way to go today so not too much time for caching...but enough time for a hunt for caches to help qualify for "The Well Travelled Cacher Challenge: Vic" cache...and that included this cache...unsuccessfully.

No sign within 30 metres of GZ so I think it has gone.
 
20-Dec-15
Second full day of the long drive south for Christmas.
After breakfast in town I went for a few caches in and around.
Thanks for the cache
