Remove maintenance icon so I can find issues easier

As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. I'm archiving it to keep it 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 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it. Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Will check

hmmmm I am hoping persistence will EVENTUALLY pay off!

hmmmm I notice more people have NOT found this one than have found it, not a good omen

DNF even after PAH with a good hint

A quick look but also came up empty handed.

Could not find this one either. Can you please check this one

Couldn't find it - even with a hint. Maybe it has been muggled?

Thought out well.

Out for a morning run but the weather was not great. Very very windy, not ideal for caching. This one was spotted quickly and I was able to move onto the next one.

Thankyou, nice little area at the end of this series that I didn't know was here! TFTC

First find on our Christmas Day jaunt. TFTC

Nice one TFTC

Kryptonite!! - Well worth a favourite. TFTC

Fixed up camo and replaced log book

First cache of the day with knight no. 2 finding it.

Good hide. TFTC

Quick find for this one, unfortunately we couldn't do the others in this series as there is construction work going on and everything is fenced off.

Quick grab and back to the grindstone for me tftc

Second look here. Brought geoson along for support and there it was. TFTC

Actually spotted this one some days ago but couldn't retrieve it due to a muggle parked too close. Came back and in twilight all was clear for the grab. Would have to be the heaviest micro I've encountered. Thanks Budgie

Finally, after going around and around with the cold wind numbing my face, I got it.
I know what that stuff is and I have a fair idea where it came from....
Thanks for the cache Budgie

Laughed!! Like your thinking Budgietas. Great little hide and surprisingly found very quickly in the dark. Lots of car around but thankfully no muggles. Unfortunately the construction work prevented us venturing further to do the others in this series. TFTC.

Quick find but #2, 3 &4 blocked by construction.

Quick find.

Found on our geocaching scouts challenge. Was a fun day out with the family JABs pE and Dr J. We sore lots of different areas and lots of different types of caches.

Great time out with the family. DR JAMES, SMELLY BELLY 8 and JABs Had a lot of fun and it was a very lovely day. Gained lots of fantastic memories and visited some cool places. This was part of my geocaching scouting challenge.
TFTC - PRINCESS ESSICA –
Sorry for my late log, slowly catching up <3

Out and about filling in time with the family and thought we would visit New Town Bay series of caches. But alas we could only stop by the first cache as the road and access to the area is closed due to construction work. Would be able to still visit if I had a water craft. Still gives reason to come back.
JABs.

It was so so fun

Mainly spent the evening munzeeing around Hobart but managed to grab one cache on the way back to the accommodation. Odd thing it seems to be part of but I just removed and replaced the log and left the whole thing where it was.

Coolest cache I have found thusfar! Very apt considering the theme, and well camouflaged given the location. The GPS was going crazy and seemed to want us to go for a swim in the rivulet, but thankfully after a bit of hunting we found GZ and found what we were looking for! TFTC

Our 600th find!

Enjoyed this one (once the muggels sitting in their cars eating lunch departed).

Nice cammo. Thanks Budgietas.

Found on our caravanning and caching trip down south.

Searched high and low then spied something that was familiar TFTC

Found with Justjessie on day 7 of our Tasmanian caching tour.

Had to wait for a dog walking muggle to pass by, then found it. TFTC

Loved it. Great cache good little hiding spot.

Great cache! Rather hard in school pick up time but still manage it without being noticed

A large piece of kryptonite was found with this cache just as well superman wasn't here

Checked on cache. Replaced log book

TFTC!

Cool cache simple find with some thought

Really cool hide. TFTC. Btw, logbook full.

Clever hide after a short search

Nice camo and a nice hide, thanks Budgietas for another great hide, SL, TNLN, TFTC

Tftc

Excellent!

Found after the rain eased off and we had some lunch. TFTC!

Had to leap like superman to get this one nice hide tftc

Great hide

Walked up to the area from Cornelian Bay after finding muggles right next to the cache I had planned to look at today and was a bit worried when i spotted a car just down from GZ but asfter have a look found it to be empty

So walked back to GZ and soon spotted the cache, very funny and good camo too have a fav.

Thanks for the cache
Found at 14:09 on 23.02.2013

Nice cammo
Tftc

Took the boys (HotCrossSon and Dily boys) out for an afternoon's geocaching. Found this with minimal fuss, although there was trepidation when I handed them the cache! Thanks!

Around and around and there it was. Time for some theme music.
Saw DnA had been there earlier today. Saw them just as we replaced the cache. Good to meet some fellow cachers and prove we're not as crazy as some people think (or maybe we are).
On to #2.

Found quickly and retrieved easily. Loved the cammo. TFTC
It was nice to catch up with AussieCacheHunter and The Practice Manager again and also to meet a new future potential geocacher.

Nice colour

First find in a conversion of a muggle!! TFTC

Hope this cache isn't radioactive...TFTC

A very Kryptic cache! Love this one. An easy find and a cracker of a hide. TFTC

Found this one long ago and forgot to log it. It was during summer I recall because there were people swimming around the end of the bay.

Quick start to this trio of caches

Found no worrries on a lovely xmas eve day tftc!

The spot where we opted to park was right at the site of the first in this series, and it was quick to spot, especially if standing back far enough. TFTC Budgietas

A bit of a mixed day which started to get frustrating, but eventually yielded a better result than it looked like becoming. We found the first cache then couldn’t find the next two and although finding the last in a series could not get at the log. Then at a location at Cornelian Bay we think we found the spot where the multi-cache would have been, but no container.

Quite a quick and easy find (just as well since it was raining). Thanks.

Great mini series. Found on way to Mona. Tftc

You named this correctly Budgie but I found it TFTC.

Had a clearer run this time, and was able to spot the cache concealed in it's spot this time !
Thanks for the cache, Budgietas !

A quick look in the heat only - the little red tags were getting hotter so the search was given up without spotting the cache..... next time!

When we arrived the area was largely deserted apart from a couple of muggles outside one of the rowing clubs. We were able to keep out of their line of sight whilst searching. After surveying the immediate area a likely hide location was seen but it was well above the reach of the 2y's_theshort. Once Mr y'stassie explored the spot, the cache was found and was in hand. Certainly an interesting cache container which gave us an inkling of what was to come. The cache and contents were in good condition. TFTC Budgietas.

Quick easy find, after the muggle and muggle dog passed by. TFTC

Wow - this is a great cache. Loved it. Needs a warning for if you're shorter than about 164cm - I was JUST able to retrieve it and was glad in the process it didn't fall on my head! Thanks budgietas.

Quick find on a stop off after work. Cache located in the obvious location.

Nice container well hidden!!! Had that squirmish thought as was reaching for it!! TFTC

Quick and easy find at 1:00pm. Good start for "New Town Bay" series. Thanks.

A quick find on the way to the next three in the series. Good thing Mr W is tall as Mrs W will have to start packing a step ladder for some of these caches. TFTC.

Had a couple of hours before picking up Jr geo from Glenorchy and thought a few caches would be a good idea. This first one was a nice easy find. Glad I'm not from kryton! Log signed and cache replaced. TFTC

Found with AINSTAR and geokids. Clever clever hide. Looking forward to the others. TFTC

A quick find with scottymyth and geo kids! Working off our mchappyday celebrations!! TFTC

Hi Budge
After an exhilerating walk with two good friends, Anne and I did this series together this afternoon.
We started at #1, where Anne spotted the cache before OldSaint did. The cache was extracted and I must admit that "I felt very week at the sight of this cache!" My strength was zapped very quickly!
However, I had just enough energy to sign the log and replace the cache at 1707hrs.
The rivulet here definitely needs some love and attention.
Now for #2!
A great cache concept.
TFTC and cheers
OldSaint.

After three days on the threshhold of man flu death, I decided that I was going to get out and about today and this series seemed to fill the bill. Ok that was not exactly what I was expecting hehe. An easy find and retrieval. Loved the container . Thanks for the cache

There weren't many people out and about today with the rain setting in so I had time to look carefully. I was happy when I spotted the container because I didn't fancy putting my hand into some of the othner possible hiding places. But this wasn't called Spiderman, was it? Found,, logged and returned to its place. Thanks.

Kryptonite

Published

I looked for this first, and in fact looked at almost exactly the right spot to start with.
After wandering off to search for the rest of the series, I came back.
This time I spotted it just as Kirdonimo (sp?) turned up.
I let the taller half make the grab, and he cut his hand on one of the sharp edges, so he definitely earned the first to find!
Thanks.

Woo-hoo FTF to geodad & geokid.
Just waiting for them to return from their afternoon out to write a proper log.

Was on the phone to geodad as he drove up near gz & he said I think there's another cacher here. Turned out to be RebornCyclist looking for a tool to search a likely spot he suspected had the cache.
Geodad being the oversized monkey that he is, had the cache spotted & in hand with no tools needed.

But beware, this cache container bites.
We recommend gloves to future finders.
Geodad has the same weakness to this cacche as Superman.

Emergency first aid administered by geokid (wonderful things BandAids), then signed the log first at 1550 hours, & passed it to RebornCyclist (thanks for the FTF chance).

TFTC Budgie [B)]
Please excuse any blood left in the log or cache.

As I arrived at GZ Mrs D rang "Can you pick me up in 15min it's raining too hard to walk home?"

I had time for a quick search. Luckily I found it quickly and took it back to the car to sign the log out of the rain, as I was returning back to the hide a muggle car arrived and waited to pick up school muggles. I needed to wait quite some time before they left, and received a message from Mrs "D" asking where I was before I had a chance to return the cache to it's hiding spot.

I'll return another day to look for the others.
