Hi Fore!,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 4 weeks) 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 4 weeks 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.Ngaambul - Matt
I couldn't find this one. But I believe that it has Either has been moved or has been stolen.
Visiting my sis from NZ. First time I've cached in Oz - it's a cool, deserted Sunday am in Canberra. Great hidey spot, log very damp. TFTC
Interesting spot and well hidden. Only issue was a resident slug had moved into the cache had has been snacking on the log. Slug has been relocated.
tiny little guy! lived close by and this is my first geocache ever. this location is beautiful, nice place to sit and have a sandwich in peaceful silence and watching the ducks.
#904 We had completed a nearby cache and Turtle was showing interest in having a look for this one to avenge a previous empty handed search. After our small group walked over to GZ we had to wait for a group of cyclists to go passed before we could start our search. After they had all passed Turtle was straight to it and found the cache within mere seconds, he was so surprised as he could’ve sworn he’d looked there before. We were all happy to make a quick find here because it gave us just enough time to get to the event without being too late. Thanks Fore!
Had to check a few spots with DeadThief and Turtle (who was apparently stumped by this one once before…) but we soon located the sneaky hide. Nice camo (or is it‽). TFTC

In the spirit of reconciliation we would like to acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of country on which we geocache throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We (the pants people) pay our respects to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.

#2784 After completing a Wherigo in the area I convinced our small group to join me in a search here. I had failed previously despite having a pretty good idea what I was looking for. Once again at GZ we had to wait for a group of 15-20 cyclists to pass by before really getting down and dirty. After a relatively short search I came up with the find. I must have all but had my hand on that at my previous visit and am amazed I missed it before. I’ll blame it on a case of cache blindness! Thanks for the cache Fore!
Easy to find. The paper is soaked, but needs a new one for more sigs. Please check that it's properly closed before returning
We found it but we didn't sign it because it was too wet and damp. We had an encounter with a friendly duck!!
Found It!
This one took me a little longer to spot than it should have but I got there in the end. Thankfully not many people around here today.

Dropped a friend off in Gungahlin and thought I would have another stab at this. The cache had been replaced since my DNF.
There was just enough light left in the day after a wonderful sunny Canberra late autumn day.

!PROJECT GO NORTH INITIATED!
Today I really felt like like doing some caching for my daily and really felt like doing more than one. So decided to work a bit further north than I usually do. I wanted to catch the light rail up to Gungahlin. However I didn't realize that they were doing construction on one of the stops! So I just ended up at EPIC instead, however, I had a bike on me and managed to do some of Franklin, Harrison, Throsby and a bit of Mitchell! Biked for about 3 hours and surprisingly my legs didn't turn into jelly. Nothing particular happened on the journey.
This cache was a very quick find in a beautiful location. I had a idea where it would be and I was correct. TFTC

A quick find today when other activities have distracted us from caching. TFTC
A quiet day of Northside caching. This was a straightforward find at GZ, thank you Fore! and thank you allrounder for replacing. Container duly re-wedged.
Fore!’s geocaching secretary reporting for duty: cache gone, replaced with a different, please make sure you wedge it when replacing (you will see what I mean), carry on
Can someone check this cache because after 5 did not find. I about go there but I won’t go there
Fore!'s geocaching secretary reporting for duty: will check this one next time I'm out that way...
We searched the south end of the pond pathway for about 15/20 minutes with no luck. We bush bashed and searched under the pond boardwalk and in and around the trees.
Came down for tonight’s CITO despite the smokey horrid weather and was pleasantly surprised to find a bonus cache in the area! Such a good sneaky hide. Great to be back in town and caching again after the holiday business. Thanks for the cache.
A CITO this afternoon was held right on top of this cache so it was opportune to log this one along with a few other souls braving the smoke up here.
Many thanks Fore! - a long time since I found one of yours.

Found while attending DSD's CITO in Canberra's shocking smoke filled summer. TFTC SL
Found at the CITO event on the 1st day of the year in the smokey air. Not a good day to be outside but at least we are safe in Canberra at the moment and let's hope it stays that way. Tftc
A quick find today. All the other times that I have been here its had people at the GZ, today was a quick grab
Not sure if we just didn't bring our A game? Spent 20 minutes searching with no luck
Noted a DNF so popped over for a looksee. All good, cache exactly where it should be.
