Hi Pigwig2,
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 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 listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

Could not find it, must be very well camouflaged or buried. Hint didn‘t really help.
Finishing off today with this cache. Very unique cache. We didn't see a logbook so we took a picture as proof. TFTC
Found the cache, no log to sign.
Had a bit of excitement with a snake sharing the path, tftc

Found, but much like another cacher, no log to sign due to parts missing. It looks like it’s been muggled in an honest fashion. Great cache- FP despite the lack of log, due to container and non- camouflage
Found the turtle, but someone has broken it. No capsule. Have reassembled, but just the shell.
Took longer than it should have.
Cute cache. Have left a travel bug that we've accidentally been holding for quite some time

After a glass of wine nearby we headed for this cache. Quickly found and very cute. I have 2 as pets for 27 tears now and still doing well.
Thanks to Pigwig2 for the fun and the adventure.

A quick easy find once the area was clear if muggles. Log is damp and mouldy but still able to sign. Our first QLD cache I believe. Thanks for such a cute and memorable find.
Heading south for some target caches today with Geopup Bella, we arrived at the Spit and set about making some finds.
Arriving at gz this cute little critter was quickly spotted. Log signed, all replaced as found.
Thanks Pigwig2 for the cache.

Staying in main Beach for a few days. So thought I would go and find a few caches so TFTC
Out with my daughter picking up some caches. Thank you Pigwig2 for placing and maintaining GCPT - Eastern long-necked Turtle for us to find today.
Find # 1151.

On a morning run trying to rectify three blue faces. This one took me a while - not sure why because once I found it, it seemed pretty obvious
Lots of snake holes around the area. Didn’t find the cache and felt worried looking.
Spent 10min here the other night in the dark unsuccessfully looking around the wrong tree. Spotted it within 5 seconds today. TFTC. Giddy up
TFTC.
Loved this cache and container. Poor guy needs some TLC but he's been replaced and the log book was signed.
First day caching in the new year for us. We started the year off right with a 4 hour bike ride. With only 1 day left to "Reach the Peak" we needed all the points we could get. Therefore we decided to power through this power trail. This was our first ever power trail and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Still have a few to get (south straddie) but now we live local, that shouldn't be an issue.

i am on holidays this week and decided to come down to the gold coast for the day and pick up some smileys and visit my son and family who are staying at sea world. The caches along here have been on my to do list for a long time . Today i had my push bike and i really enjoyed the ride along here and this was my fourth out of six caches of this power trail. I rode past here earlier but muggles were too close so i rode on and on the way back i had the place to myself. I then went around and around in circles before i looked at photos and read logs and finally spotted this cute cache. Thank you for all the fun
