Hi there Reviewer,
RE: The cache ""
I'm following up on my "Needs Maintenance" log which is now well over 60 days old.
There has been no action by the CO, who doesn't appear to be particularly active.
The cache appears to have been abandoned and should be archived.
Regards
Ian & Penny

No find here today. It's a shame so many of this run have a needs maintenance against them.
Hi there SushiKitten.
This is the 1st of 11 caches we didn't find today. [:(!]
We spent quite some time here at around 11:37:00 AM, but we just couldn't locate your cache, so here's a DNF from us.
As it hasn't been found since June 2016 we think some form of maintenance is due.

Hi there SushiKitten,
RE: Your cache **"Sir Jack Brabham"**
Could you please do a maintenance run to repair the cache, or perhaps archive it, as it appears to be missing. (See our DNF Log).

From previous logs we were not expecting a find. And we found no cache. The used toilet paper strewn around also said go away.
We looked everywhere but we couldnt find a mint box anywhere! Can someone come back snd see if it is still here please
We made an attempt on this one while completing the Gnoo Blas circuit, spent quite a while searching but without success.
We had a look for this one today but sadly have to log a DNF. Maybe another day.
Came up from Vic to try to locate some caches and some warmer weather !!!! . Thanks SushiKitten for this cache. But the end result was a no go jo.
Look for about 15. Not the amount of rubbish that other people have referred to.
No finds in over 6 months apart from the mysterious white paws who seems to find caches no one else does.
Couldn't find this one had a 2o min search but was on a time limit to get some more in this area.In Orange for a vintage car Rally on the weekend.
Thanks Sushikitten

No luck here and didn't find the area the most pleasant place to be searching I'm afraid.
The second last day of our Christmas/New Year camping trip saw us heading from Wanda Wandong camping area in Goobang National Park via Yeoval, Cumnock and Molong down to Orange.
A power trail in the heat, why not. This one came in-between, but it was too much rubbish to search around.

Tftc rubbish bad can never believe what people drop picked some up though thanks for the catche
Jack Brabham was a one time idol of most small boys (and quite a few big ones too) but I was not aware of this connection. It made this cache a must. TFTC.
We have really enjoyed this series of 30 caches. Unlike Jack Brabham we walked most of the way. Easy find TFTC
dodged some muggles playing nearby, soon had the cache in hand, still a fair bit of loose rubbish around, the log is a little damp but still able to write on it.
tftc SushiKitten.

Was looking for something smaller then what was found. Still a quick find once you see past all the rubbish. Collected a few bits to place in a bin. The muggle across the road mowing the lawn paid us no attention when we pulled up. Still a quickish find on a hot lap around the race track.

It’s a pity these places aren’t cleaned up more regularly, the aforementioned detritus is still present. Anyway, I slipped on my gloves and safely extracted the cache. Thanks SushiKitten.
Generally there's 'crap' under trees near a park and this one had more than its fair share; including actual 'crap'. Sir Jack deserves better I reckon! TFTC TN and left a weroamin token.
Found in the company of weroamin, we had to sift through everyone else's rubbish including DIRTY toilet paper - not nice.
I hope this is thevright cache, was not just a baggy, was in blue v05 hairgel container.photo taken
Sir Jack Brabham, bringing the “Gnoo Blas” Motor Racing Circuit to fame and a reason for the “Gnoo Blas” cache series to us. Thank you and TFTC
Was looking for a different kind of container.Thought I had found someone's stash in a plastic baggy - but it was the container.
Not so quick was this find, it was on the ground under some leaf litter without a container. TFTC
Had some time for a few caches and thought the trail was a good option. and i was right a great series TFTC SushiKitten

Found at 11:03:00 AM, had a bit of spare time while Mrs Fred and her mother were at the nearby Fracture Clinic and these nearby caches were too tempting to pass up.
Thanks SushiKitten
Thanks SushiKitten
Found on the way home from a trip to Parkes with work.
I picked this one up while doing the nearby series. The container was out in the open but the contents seemed to be intact so I replaced at the base of one of the conifers.

Scrounged around for a bit, searched the wrong area but then let the GPS settle which lead me back to the right spot. Was the dead of night so no muggle probs! TFTC
The hint made finding it a lot easier. It's nice to delve into a bit of history.
It was a cool and windy day, the little one and I were bored so we took this chance to go hunting for this cache, arrive at GZ with no-one around, so went hunting lifting branches, kicking leaves about in search of this cache. The little one started to get bored and so she started to climb the tree, was bout to give up the search when I spotted the cache, told the little and where it was and she rushed in and grabbed it with a smile on her face, both sign the log and she put it back and covered it up again for the next lucky hunter.

6727 + 842 = 7569. Found during a great weekend caching in the Bathurst region with Sol de Lune.

Thanks again Sushikitten !!
TNLN - TFTC !!

A much bigger park this one, but we parked along the road ok and headed in to find the cache without issue.
Thanks for the caches SushiKitten....

Found in a slight drizzle. Thought this was still the mint container so didn't bring swaps.

I had a quick poke around for a cache and got the chequered flag after only 1 lap of GZ

Pretended to be admiring the work of the guy mowing the nearby sports ground while mr sharnie's tribe did the deed. Luckily a quick find because grass mowing isn't really that exciting! TFTC
Cache is now a hair gel container with swaps so took soldier and left gold pirate coin
Found on a day of caching in the Orange District.
This was a nice quick find. Good to see our Aussie heroes mortalised in a cache.
Thanks SushiKitten

Quick find but whole cache was waterlogged, both old and new logs were wet even in the plastic bags. TFTC
Relatively quick find - not many people about in the early evening. Log damp.
Checked this cache today. Still in place , log was dry , having trouble with condensation in the container. Will replace with new cache soon
Found my 100th geocache this 2013 Australia Day long weekend, but I'd never logged any of my finds. So I decided now is an opportune time to do so!
This was cache #54. TFTC!
