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.

Owner is not active and the cache can not be maintained

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.

Can the owner verify if it is still in place please ?

Not found.

Couldn't find it :/

Searched around for about 20min and didn't spot anything. Fair few muggles about so I bailed

After 30 minutes we had to give up.

Cool cache need replacement hard to write on it. Tftc

Need new log

TFTC. However logbook is worn. No space for more logs. Please replace

Log book needs to replace. Anyway nice treasure

Found it, thanks!

Ewwww ;P cool cache

TFTC

I'd suggest to change the container as logbook gets worn. It won't last long during rainy days. TFTC

Had to wait a little while for GPS to settle down as it had me out by about 10 metres initially. Once I was at GZ I was able to make a quick find. The log is getting a bit worn and slightly damp but still ok. TFTC!

First one!

I doubt if the log will last long but managed to get my name on it.

2/02/14. 7:26 AM. Cache #1315. 4th of 6 caches found this morning while clearing out Randwick council, mostly new ones like the last one, Rowland Park. Luckily I've seen enough of this type of camo container to not be fooled. These usually have the log inside a protective inner container, to avoid the log getting tatty like this one was. Could still sign it though. Next a short drive to Clovelly for Burnie Park Cache. TFTC }:)

Easy to locate GZ, but hard to find GC because of its unusual appearance! TFTC.

2nd cache today at a cricket oval. Tftc

Woooo, FTF at new coords! New log too, it seams. There was a cicada shell guarding the cache.

Coordinates changed from:
S 33° 56.154 E 151° 14.010

Coordinates changed to:
S 33° 56.167 E 151° 14.067

Distance from original: 295.9 feet or 90.2 meters.
Had to change coordinates because of a small problem.

Enabling listing.

We just Need to change a few things, there's just a few small problems with the cache.

Just need to change a few things.

Found while on a big geo trip away with tmann421.
Sorry for the late & repeat logs as just catching up now.
A great time had, some wonderful places seen, thanks to all the NSW geo cachers.

Another good find with TuisReturn
We enjoyed touring around the area finding caches

No real problem with the find here - log signed as TUI & TM421 as no more room left on sheet\
LOG NEEDS CHANGING
SL TFTC

Searched high and low and places around the coords, but to no avail.

Not my favourite cache today, loitering around a female toilet is not the best look when muggles are about, and you are a lone male.

There seemed to be some sort of gathering right at GZ today, so no way we could search without being seen. We'll come back another day.

Easy

Geocache #835.
Found on Sunday, 15th September 2013 at 4:42 PM.
Conditions: sunny
Current streak #47 days.
Today's finds 14 of 21.

My 734th find for The Great Scouts Australia Geocaching Competition 2013 and today marks the final day of the contest. After Morry9 and I attended the A Walk on the Wild Side - Bondi to Coogee Event Cache meet and greet, we went and completed some more caches around the area in the afternoon. Once at GZ we made a quick find here, TFTC HenryCP.

We also met McMather who were attempting their very first geocache (nice to meet you both).

"JordsAU

Very tricky first find, lucky I met up with some pros!!

Although a quit day in the park, two people walking around had me waiting for quit a while untill I could make the find.
TFTC Wilbert67

Hhh

Found during a quick run around this afternoon with Big Matt and Shell before our flight to Adelaide.

Thanks HenryCP for the cache.

Our 7053rd overall find.

FF and I arrived at the airport a little early for our flight so why not find a few caches. This one was a very quick find.

Thanks HenryCP for the cache.

Everything about this cache screams suss.. but it was fun. Tftc

Enjoyed this one, nice cache container. Tftc

I liked this one, I didn't have an issue finding it, but liked what it was hidden in.

Looked at the images for this, one is a spoiler & should be removed.
I've seen one of these elsewhere so knew exactly what to look for but it was not to be found at GZ.
Can you please check this one. Thanks.

Sorry guys tried several times toil hours to check every spot but.......could you think that I didn't find it!!!!!! I think u should take a peak to see if its still there!!
Thanks
Geoge

Awesome camo, Zuezz

I have visited this one before with no luck, but today my visit proved successful. Had to use my log extraction tool and I can see others have caused some damage to the log. I rolled up nicely after signing and so hopefully all good for future finders.

Thanks HenryCP for your cache.

Wel I was back in the area with some time . Had a real good idea of what I was looking for just the phone had me back in the same spot as the last time I dnf'd this one. Being wiser now went looking and found it where I was sure I looked last time or just missed it by mm. Anyway good to get this dnf fixed up. TFTC

Streak day 180 #1196

AN easy find as a previous suggestged they were brave and looked there. So, I did too.

TFTC.

[^] Found this one with a group of friends, lucky one of our mates was game enough to touch it! Weren't sure if it were a cache or not... Clever.

after i got the " low down " from other logs it was easy to find.the tiniest log and the first of this type of micro cache for me... I am new to the game. very clever! tftc.

My first attempt at geocaching, but unfortunately didn't manage to find it. Wasn't very sure what I was looking for.

Perhaps I'll try again when I've got more experience.

It was nice to discover the park and I had a very enjoyable afternoon starting this new hobby, especially when I had better luck at the next one "Walking the dog".

Thanks!

Back in Sydney so back for another look. This time found it straight away! Plenty of people here today but none interested in what we were doing. All way too absorbed with the players on the field!! Nice container. Second one of these I have found. Very sneaky hehe. SL TFTC

I had to drop some gear down to our installers down the road this morning, and this wasn't far away. So I made a slight detour to an empty oval. Probably a bit trickier on weekends. Once I got to GZ there weren't going to be too many wheelchair accessible possible hides and it was in the first spot I checked. Thanks HenryCP.

Awesome cache!

Lots of muggle children nearby but all totally captivated by their Pirate entertainer so a quick search hidden by my car parking skills went unnoticed. Really only a few centimetres of possible area to check for what I suspected container to be. Read the description properly and tweezers will not be necessary to extract log sheet.

The first time I found these types of containers reaction was 'yew!........oh how cool'
Luckily very few muggles here today. Need to be careful hanging around here though.

Really hard to find a muggle free time but there got finally. Needed a thorough search but got there in the end.

What was that? Well certainly my last cache in OZ for a while. Took a few minutes as I had seached here before and not found it. Lukly despite some busy doings on the near oval no one was paying to much interest in what I was doing . Found IT eventually almost to nice to be hidden TFTC HenryCP.

[blue]Nice place, I could watch some soccer, rugby and cricket. But there were a lot of people and the cover of the cache is something extraordinary... Thanks for the cache.

Found cache right where I thought it'd be. Did not get the log out to sign (I think it needs tweezers) so took a photo of the cache instead... TFTC!!

The cache is back.

Nice to come and get this when looking before hadn't looked here so don't know if it was missing but happy to sign the new log at night without any sticky surprises. Tftc

The Cache is missing will replace in a few weeks.

Searched for half hour with cricket training and dog walkers no joy hard to see where it could be found many spots I would put it oh well may look again

I will check this soon.

Looked for half an hour. No luck.

Stopped by at this park after doing some other nearby caches. Was a bit off-put by the location (near the toilet block), but had a quick look anyway. Short search didn't uncover anything, and I didn't want to linger too long, esp with a gentleman in a nearby car smoking ...well, lets just say it wasn't a cigarette! XD

Didn't find it anywhere looked up down and around but couldn't find it might try another time thanks anyhow

No one around today but we still couldn't find. Maybe next time.

Searched with my grandma but found nowhere it could be

found this some time ago, frgt to log, early 2013

Lovely day, drop my daughter off at airport then go to east coast caches for a day... Easy to find as hide very well... thanks

We stopped by and found this one on our way out to Malabar.. An easy find was made, however despite all the best endeavors I still had trouble getting the pesky logbook out.. Thanks Henry CP for the cache.. Today marks the midway point in this looong weekend away in NSW.. Thanks for the cache.. Find #3042

Checked this one out but was not able to have a proper look because there were lots of muggles and it was right outside the toilet block, so I looked pretty dodgy poking around.

Might try again, a nice park.

Good hide although the log was a tad difficult to get out without tweezers.

For some reason I've found a couple that didn't send from the app... I've got TB logs going to them but not find logs. Apologies, logging now.

TFTC

Found @ 1015 on a final caching run with SirJ-Oz before heading off to the airport. From the previous logs I had an inkling what we'd be looking for and where it wouldn't be found, so it was a pretty straightforward job. The log was extracted with minimal difficulty and signed - I really need a shorter caching name for these ones! Thanks for the cache HenryCP.

Found @ 10:15 with AmethystPig on a trip to Sydney before returning home.
Working our way from the accommodation towards the airport, this was the first on the list. Hmmm, two middle aged men hanging around a toilet block... Good thing it was a quick find.
We looked around for Harry, Dumbledore and crew but just some muggles.
Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables.
Thanks for the cache HenryCP.

We spent a fair amount of time searching for this one. It's a bit smelly in places... You might want to bring gloves as you end up poking around in a fair few places! In the end it's located in a spot that's not that bad. Good luck.

Don't know how we missed this on our first visit. Might have been the description that this was wheel chair accessible. That might have to be an off-road wheel chair with a rider equipped with extendible arms! Clever container. Good thing the first aid kit in the car had a pair of tweezers for log extraction! SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek

Found it in the first spot we were looking. A bit hard to retrieve the log, though.

Nice and quick cheers

Nice easy find whilst in the area...T4TC...

I don't think it is here anymore!
Will try another time if someone is able to find it!

Tftc. Coords are a little off, but we came away as the champion.

Decided to go for a long walk at lunchtime today, and this cache is just within walking distance from the Uni.

I got to GZ on a sunny day; despite this, the park was practically empty, save for the odd dog-walker. However, the gps had me pointed at a particularly unsavoury location I.e. the entrance to the ladies toilets. After scouring the area, and virtually all others in a 10m radius, I was stumped, and resorted to making a couple of PAF calls. Fortunately, the TLM got back to me whilst I was still there, and their info was telling me to re-check a spot I'd tried previously.

Contorting my wrist, I did indeed get my fingers on a tricky hide; I SL and replaced, using a safety pin I'd brought with me to get the tiny log out. For future cachers: don't be put off by the thought of this one...you DON'T need to loiter in a toilet vestibule to make a find here!

TFTC, HenryCP!

CC.

As a middle aged male, I spent minimal time hanging around the toilet block looking for a nano with no clues, if i could give an un-favorite point i would.

Not too many people around but found it hard to stay looking around a toilet block!

We couldn't believe a Sydney park had been named after a ficticious character from a book - just a bit wizardly & mysterious, we thought. Luckily we had a quick easy find with spot-on coords but the cache placement right at the back of a toilet block didn't really appeal to us.

I was in Sydney for a 11.00am appointment and was there one hour early so we had time to cache. Found after a read of the logs and a scrounge around. TFTC. Cheers

Bummer! No clue what to look for - help!! I had a look around the building opposite the toilets, but couldn't spot anything.

Zita had seen this one on the GPS on our drive in to Sydney this morning and because of the HP connection wanted to get it. It was dark and we were tired by the time we were driving home to Canberra, but we still thought we would have a go. We don't think this is the best place for a cache, even though the toilets say they are closed, it still is probably not the best place for people to be seen lurking around. We looked for a while (sharing one torch) then zita returned to the car to read all the past logs. She was 100% confident of where the cache would be and told (directed? no, ordered? no) enzo to check there. Yep, got it. The first time we have seen one of these containers in real life. TNLNSL TFTC

Had a good look but didn't see it. Co-ords pointed to the ground between two buildings, so maybe I was in the wrong place. Will have to bring a mirror next time and a magnifying glass. Wouldn't want to be a single male hanging around here though. Lucky I had the kids as cover. Where is Hermainie to conjure up a revealing spell when you need her. Cheers.

After a couple of failures on nearby caches due to poor eyesight (couldn't read the hints) and not wanting to keep TLM Grandma waiting in the car for us too long it was nice to come here and grab at least one find for the day.

A few dog walkers made it a bit tricky to search but it takes more than that to stop us from grabbing a find. Didn't see Professor Severus Snape or any other Harry Potter characters hanging around which was a bit disappointing. Then again that cache container maybe it was a Snitch that went too close to the sun.

Hmmmm! Just couldn't spot it this afternoon. Never mind, we'll come back for another try before long. Cheers... Gaztek

Great cache. Hadn't come across this type before so needed to read past logs before I worked it out. TFTC. SL.

Thanks.. very quikly found.. J-LEST-TEAM

TFTC, Visited with a group of trackables learning where Caches are around the local area.

Had a bit of time after work so had a look for this one but came up empty
Thanks anyway
