Logs
As there has been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it has been a number of months since the last owner note 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 (next 28 days), just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it 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'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. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every month or so to keep everyone up to date.

While not impossible, it seems unlikely that this cache will be replaced, so have opted for a direct Archive request.
To the Reviewer, if the proper order is to have the Maintenance first, then set as a maintenance flag. Someone will add archive request at some later point if needed.

Well, without consulting previous logs we had a search for this cache - unfortunately coming up with nothing. Aha, we checked logs and it made a bit more sense. A pity that we couldn't find this cache, but glad we were able to find the one up the path!!
You pwned us n00bs.
We will return.
Thanks to WebbyKippy101 and clear skies from TeamAstro.

Well this was a beautiful spot to visit. You never really know where caching is going to take you when you go on a rather random caching drive... Lovely water features and plenty of people enjoying them. I had to time my cache search carefully with all the people about but was pretty sure I had spotted the hiding place from the path and there it was. TFTC, Biggles.
Number 291 for the spidermonkeys. We seem to attract lawn mowing men and day tripping buses. Held up at the last stop, so Thornden park seemed a nice place to try. Needing some fresh air after days of airconditioning. Nice full cache, swaps for kids and a lovely peaceful view. TNLN but TB had a visit. Thanks for the adventure. *checks for sunnies*
Nice easy find for the little smirchie. Watch out for muggles though ! TFTC took fish stickers and left red oil can figurine. SL
Find 1753
Found on a short hike on the highroad.

Grabbed this one while the family was at Thorndon Park. The hint made it very straightforward. This would be much more challenging if you were brave enough to ignore the hint. TFTC!
We went for a short stroll down the path, this has always been a pleasant spot. Left another sheet of paper as others are full, signed and as we were strolling back, a HUGE duck followed us the whole way. Thanks WebbyKippy101. TFTC
lovely day for a walk in the park and a good chance to pick up some caches. had to go old school and use a compass! gps got us to the spot. tftc.
Found this morning with e.gregory1 and a friend.
TFTC and sorry about the late log!

Found while out on a morning's caching with EsromL and friend. Thanks WebbyKippy101 for the cache.
Boxing day, and the Seek3rs were at a family picnic at Thorndon park.
What better opportunity to pick up the two caches in the park.
Took daughter Seek3rs and nephew with us, and daughter Seek3rs came up with the quick hide right where the hint said it would be.
Added Seek3rs sticker and date to the log.

I did enjoy the walk from the gate through the 'no pushbikes allowed' surrounds of the dam
Somewhere near the cache I managed to escape the ducks and had a sneaky search for the cache.
Oh too easy [^]

Found during a foray into the north-eastern suburbs. Thanks for the cache WebbyKippy101!
Thanks for the geocache.
Very crowded at the playground - nice to get away from the crowds and go for a nice walk.

GPSr was jumping around quite a bit initially, but eventually it settled down and the cache was in hand! Just in time too, as a family moved into the area and settled in for a picnic. TFTC WebKippy101!
I had the park to myself until I went to replace the cache. At this point runners and walkers appeared from everywhere, I don't know what they thought of a cyclist standing on the edge of their path.
Thanks for the cache WebbyKippy101.

Brought the geo-kids here after school. This is a fantastic park! We've been looking for an excuse to come back here. We went for a walk, found the cache, and spent a long time at the playground. Geo boy made the find and replaced it also. Left a calling card. TFTC
Found quickly today on a lovely walk around the park with uncle papaGemelli, where he left his M-Sez TB. SL TFTC!
Found today while our walking with nephew gherkominator. Dropped off m-sez tb. Sl Tftc
Easy find, too easy I feel. I hope it lasts but it does seem to be begging to be found by a muggle and then who knows?
Thanks for the cache WebbyKippy101

Needed to get another day knocked off the caching calander, and with this one only one and a bit km from home it was a nice easy choice.
Easy find, though I'm not sure how log it will last without any camo on it. The log book doesn't exist either really. A scrap of paper doesn't count and will just mean a needs maintenance log will come after 20 finds.
Dropped a TB.

We always enjoy having a reason to come to this park and today this cache was the reason. An easy find for us today.
Thank you for the cache WebbyKippy101!

Quick find late on Saturday afternoon as the sun was still glorious. The smell of sausages sizzling on the BBQ at 4 pm was divine as I walked past. A quick get. Scoped with google earth and did from memory. Left a smiley badge. Thanx
WOOHOOOOO FTF FTF FTF FTF @ 12.01 am
Laying snuggly in bed when the notification came on... mmm 3km from home.. nahhhh too cold.. can't be bothered.. laying ... laying... no call from a bumblebee... mmm he must be asleep... and I was ohhh so warm.. tried to go back to sleep. but the lure of the cache was just too strong. So 10 mins later mrs scoobster hopped in the car - knowing the area really well she went around the back way and took a 500m short cut!
Arrived at gz in the dark, torch but no gps - only her phone.. quick search.. super fast easy find!
Signed log @ 1201 am..
Thanks for the hide

Woke up to an email notification 1km away. No need to hurry, Team Scoobster has already claimed the FTF. (Scoobster is a caching automaton which requires no sleep, food or comfort.) Leisurely breakfast, get dressed, get Raven organised for her first day back at school. Saunter down to Thorndon Park...
Silver! Owl did her caching dance and dropped a grumpy Raven off at school.

A nice way to spend a lunch break. I have been to this park for a cache in the past it was nice then as well.
3ed I think. I left a calling card animal and a TB to move on its way.
