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.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

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.

No DNF's, then 5 in a row on a low difficulty cache - we couldn't see it either...
 
01-Jul-14
Found a small blue container that had been opened and discarded. Not sure if that was it
 
27-Mar-14
Forgot about the fires and wasn't there. Found the spot though Smile
 
25-Dec-13
[red]URGENT[/red] Went there and no cache there... due to bushfire area...
 
30-Sep-13
Also went searching after fires and could not find this one.
 
23-Sep-13
On a glorious spring day and fueled by sugar madness (Bottomless Slurpee day @ 7/11) we went on a little family caching trip. Devouring as many slurpees as possible & finding caches along the way.
I think we may be the first to attempt a find on this one after the recent fires in this area, we kept our heads leveled and also looked down for melted stuff. A DNF for us, but after a read through logs it is a shame, this one was lost. ...............or is it? Smile

Will be back!
 
22-Aug-13
Headed out to pick up a few quick caches in the area, and this was last. The clue had us a bit stumped! Figured it out now though! TFTC
 
10-Jun-13
As I began my search I was joined by a lady looking for her 3 legged dog, missing since Friday. Couldn't find the dog but I did find the cache. Not exactly what I was expecting. TFTC.

A short walk in the morning mist and the cache was found.

Cheers

Heading out to western Sydney today. Hoojar and I set about finding some of the many caches that dot the area.
An interesting container here. Found it after a short walk to GZ.

Thanks

whoops, I wrote on the wrong geocache log! i did find it though, good cache Smile

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 this one gets a fav point - a very unique container thanks to yllennoc.
 
19-Nov-12
Very good catch! very random hiding place!!!!

Parked near the round-about and walked in. A very quick find on a very strange cache, an enjoyable find for the uniqueness of this cache. TFTC.
 
23-Aug-12
An unusual hide in an unusual location. Nice idea.

Extravagant of us to do two caches in a night, but we were feeling reckless Smile. This was a little harder to spot in the dark than the last one, but I managed to spot it. This amused the CFig, as he has this idea that I'm not to good at spotting this type of hide. Actually, with the number like this that I've missed & he's spotted, he just might have a point Smile.

Thanks Smile.

Found by Mary & David at 1226. Very wet and muddy as predicted. Searched around for ages in keeping with the hint, but finally found the cache on the ground. Log is very damp and disintegrating. It is also full, so we reused a spot where a previous log had faded away. Replaced the cache off the ground and above the spot where we found it. Our thanks again to yllennoc.
 
20-Jan-12
One of the best so far especially if you take the other way.Top idea:)note:log is wet thru.
 
07-Jan-12
Great! TFTH
 
30-Dec-11
Located easily, didnt get to sign the log though as it was drenched and falling apart. Think it needs to DRIP dry. TFTC
 
28-Dec-11
Tried to find this one nice and sneakily so as not to disturb some nearby kids making some sort of holiday fort. Was unable to sign the log (didn't even attempt it) as it is beyond soaked.
 
13-Dec-11
a little slippery today down to GZ, found quickly - log is very wet and disintegrating was able to sign, but needs attn. TFTC
 
12-Dec-11
The log Is very wet and the container doesn't hold together well. needs some maintenance. log is also full.
 
08-Dec-11
Nice and muddy after rain. Tftc nice hide Smile
 
03-Dec-11
A nice walk down to this one and a different type of cache container that I've not seen used before.
I don't think it was sealed properly as the log was quite damp. Laid it out in the sun for a bit to dry but it might need a maintenance check by the CO.

TFTC
 
26-Nov-11
Tftc interesting container Smile
 
30-Oct-11
Nice hide!
 
26-Oct-11
Decided to take the high ground on the way in to this one instead of the obvious muddy path. Once at GZ located cache quite easily.
 
25-Oct-11
yesterday i had some free time and finally had enough to try a couple of caches over this way. Was here Sunday night to pick up son from his mates place. By the time I finished work and got over here it was way dark and so i drove up to the cache and realised that there was some walking involved didn't quite have the time so went back got the kid and as I have Mondays and Tuesdays orf decided to come back during the day. When i got to GZ looked up description on SMRT phone (when i started had to print out log sheets, what a waste of paper) and looked around AH HA there it is : but when i moved over to where i thought it was it were just some bark hanging down. coulda sworn that it was a micro. came back to where i was and there it was right next to where i was standing.
Thanks
Acko

A quick find after a short stroll, first time I have seen one of these used as a cache container, thanks.
 
17-Oct-11
The last time I was in the area there were no caches to speak off, this time there is 3. A nice short walk had & a nifty hide this 1 is. Is that your cubby house ??? TFTC / TFTH / SL
 
14-Oct-11
Walked right past it and then came back once the gps settled. Nice hide in an interesting area

NickoHeap returned here for me to find this cache. He says the dirt road is really dried out since he went with the WaywardWoman. There was only one muddy patch. Anyway, I didn't need his help. The cache sticks out like dog's ..... paws. Thanks
 
21-Aug-11
A strange place to position the cache, and the container is out of its habitat.

A quick find, thanks yllennoc

found with TeamBooo Thanks

Well we arrived here clean and fresh but thanks to the recent wet weather we didnt leave in the same condition. As we drew closer to GZ geo-wife noticed foot prints in the mud and decided to follow them and sure enough they ended right at the hide. Seems we are not the only mud encrusted cachers out this day.
 
20-Aug-11
Thanks For The Cache yllennoc
I dont know how many sets of clothes I've trashed caching
the mud here helps keep the count going haha
Found by TeamBooo's tracking skills pretty quickly
 
20-Aug-11
geodaughter managed to cover her nice white sneakers in the mud and that was before we hit the bad stuff lol cache was found quick thanks
 
20-Aug-11
With all the rain, the track down to GZ was very muddy indeed... our house has been paying for it since we got home.(kids don't think about mud!) A brisk little walk and spot on coords meant we had the cache very quickly. Apparently our walk helped the Booos along the way. Glad to be of assistance. Sorry we missed you, obviously not by long. Thanks!

Great Cache TFTC
 
Very nice camo found this on a day of geocaching with Azone and Team Zawadzki TFTC

What a clever hide! Very imaginative indeed, and I was looking right at it for while.

At first the clue didn't help me, but then it suddenly made sense . . .

As with 'Bounty Hunter,' the very accurate published coordinates helped me a lot.

Unusual container was in good shape and the log was quite dry.

TNLNSL.

Many to yllennoc for a good one! Lots of fun . . .
 
03-Aug-11
Easy find.
 
02-Aug-11
Ducked down to find this one in between piano lessons Wink TFTC
 
31-Jul-11
A nice walk out on a Sunday afternoon, the track was dry, only a couple of trail bikes about.

It was not long and we soon had CIH, coordinates were spot on, log was dry.

Nice quick find. Very clever hide. TFTC

I found it, I've got the muddy shoes to prove it.
I won't be tap dancing in those anymore Smile
 
29-Jul-11
Found. Love the container, very random. Log was a bit damp so I let it sun for a bit.
 
24-Jul-11
Found....didn't bring a pen though Sad

Tip: go looking in dry weather ... Very muddy road and no vehicle access.
 
23-Jul-11
A nice simple hide. The hardest part was the wet muddy and clay covered track. It took me longer to clean my shoes!?!
