archiving to make room for my much improved cache

Looked everywhere couldn't find it. Possibility that it has been moved during recent road works.

TFTC,
Wow how long it took to find this.
It was as if I couldn't get in the mood and found myself walking around in circles looking at the same spots over and over again.
In the end it was so easy and at the same time annoying because I was aware that I had looked there several times.
Visited a group of trackables helping me to try and get 366 consecutive days (now at 266). That means that I am now over the hump with the remaining days being 2 didgits. Time to get focused and aim for the finishing line on the 28th February 2013.

Found this with "Sat DOwn"....very interesting, I don't know how long this one will last - I hope it doesn't end up like the other Helensburgh caches!! TFTC

An incredibly easy find with "The Neighbs" today, thanks to a previous log by jaybeem!. An unusual container to say the least! TFTC

Tftc. It was a bit rocky!

still there just checked

brand new container installed

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.

See previous logs

found gz wasnt any sign of it dont think its here

This cache appears to have been placed by one of a group of kids that temporarily got the caching bug. They are complete rubbish. Silly containers, unreliable coords, not very enjoyable places to visit etc.
If CO is going to place more I would recommend loaning a GPSr from someone to at least get accurate coords and possibly visit a few more caches to get an understanding of the game. Finally, place in the presence of an adult who may be able to assist in all of this. No fun searching aimlessly for things such as kinder surprise containers. End of rant.

Caching in helensburgh is now not on my to do list due to this run of caches that just are not accurate or not there.

Well another DNF for the Helensburgh area.... Not fun at all

First DNF on my first leap day caching! First try today to find one!

Oh, now, back home, I read the title again, and of course, I saw it! But did not sign the log. It was pouring rain and The Arkaroo did get pretty wet. Barefoot, straight out of the car after work. Shirt off - pants need a wash anyway!

Caching Team:

* The Arkaroo

Travel Bugs visited:

* Arkaroo's Treasure (TB38AN6)

* Blue Desert Drive (TB3ZQ7E)

Nope. Micros in the bush. Not my cup of tea. Could be anywhere after all the rain.

Ironbark.

Reperio at 1050.

Came by earlier, but after 10 mins of searching, decided to head off to grab a few other caches. Came back on the way to The Rats 10 year anniversary/ 6000th cache find event, and after another lengthy search, found the cache 10m from the coords, on the other side of the track. The container, whilst not very water proof, was well camouflaged. Hopefully this area doesn't suffer too much more damage as a result of the cache, but due to the coords being off, I can't see that happening.

Gratias mrwhiskers76.

Muma bear had nearly given up when papa bear came up with the goods. Had actually looked there twice before. Very clever, very cunning. TFTC

I came, I tried and even with no kids around to use the swing, I couldn't locate this one. I saw the log by The Rats, and tried those coords, but I couldn't find this one. Must be clever!!

Out with the ICC mob today after the event in Helensburgh. This was the last stop before heading for home.
TNLNSL, thanks for the cache mrwhiskers76.
best wishes,
Wal

Another one where the co-ords were close but not quite right. Thankfully with the cache owner on hand the little cache was found and log signed with our large post-event group.

Found after the Helensburgh Meet and Greet Event. Group find with some local assistance, good concept with natural camouflage just requires a little refinement for long term survival well done.

Arriving at GZ I was defenitely interested in the feature available there. There must be a way to build an atractive cache out of that? Now the find was easy as someone already was there and I just had to sign the logbook!!

The rats found it in 5 seconds! Hide the cache a bit more

Was barking up the wrong tree for awhile. After moving Dwayne Johnson we managed to find it.

Found this cache with the meet and greet caching event team...TFTC many hands and eyes makes light work

No luck here on the way into the event with F@ and The Rats. Maybe we will be able to get a hint during the event...

Second time lucky! We returned here with a swag of people after the event and managed to find the cache!

Cheers

Heading out after the 101 event the tribe of want-a-be finders soon stumbled across this hide.
We'd had an attempt on this cache prior to the event. Coming back it seemed if I was "barking" up the wrong limb earlier.
Hopefully these new coords will help and I'd like to see a new container here as this one isnt waterproof.
Thanks

Day trip to the burg with Hyde and Seek. First for the day. Well played. TFTC

1pm.
Almost gave up but ah ha..explained to a local before she calls the police. Her brother also Caches!
Nice hide.
PAIR OF TWEEZERS NEEDED
