This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.


Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache.

If you plan on repairing this cache, please log a note to the cache (not email) within the next 30 days so I don't archive the listing for non-communication.

This cache needs replacing. Apparently the parking attendant knows where it is and tells people it’s missing.

Needs a check before I attempt

Herhhe

Needs looking at

Parking attendant says it’s gone missing

Searched in beautiful broad daylight then went back again at night with a torch, but no luck.

Cache is missing. Owner notified. Ticket bloke who knew where it is hidden checked and it is not there! Bummed after an hour search!

dnf, had a look but couldn’t find anywhere.

Given Kern Arcade parking is closing I was reluctant to enter the property in case I was accused of Trepassing

Too many people watching, onr asked what we were looking for

A bit of a last moment trip but was great full the Bug could also do the dash. Some Interesting puzzles and scenery in between brilliant sun light and rain showers. We had a look at a couple of creeks for future visits.
Struggled with a few hides and the phone certainly didn’t behave at times.
We gave the levels a workout before being rescued by the the very kind ticket man.
Signing duties completed and re hid. TFTC

No handy ticket man today to help. We gave up. Will revisit once someone leave us a new clue ..... tried every level but gps was playing up?

Out caching with Jodsta83 in the rain:D after going to all three levels and almost giving in. Bam there it was, what a awesome little find

With the rain about we thought we would head into town to grab this one today. With a relatively empty car park and plenty of puddles for the kids to splash around in. We searched the obvious places and eventually came up with the goods. Tftc

There was no-one here today (including no helpful parking attendant!) so were were on our own to do some searching. Picked a spot and started our hunt, was pleasantly surprised to find the cache relatively quickly.

TFTC

We had the place to ourselves which made searching much easier. Eventually found the cache.

Grey nomads travelling around Australia in our caravan. Held up a bit due to Covid19 and major knee surgery, so currently in Queensland only, but there are plenty of caches in our home state that we have not yet found.

Currently, we are farm sitting near Rockhampton for three months, so hoping to clear out Rockhampton, Yeppoon, Gracemere, Gladstone and Mt Morgan!!!

Today, after eyeing this cache off for a few weeks now, we decided to give this one a whirl. Started at GZ, and widened our search. The nice ticket seller gave us one hint, we asked for no more.

After giving all three levels the "once over" we settled on only one level. It helped us immensely by reading back over past logs..... I am sure I looked/felt there before after about 15 minutes of searching we had the container in our hand.

Helps if you read back past logs. I am sure i looked/felt there before. About 15 mins little help from ticket man. Thanks Alleycatz for a great hide. fave point for todays fun

TFTC

Came back and found it with a bit of help from the lovely attendant

Couldn't find this one after two of us searching for 30 mins. We'll come back during the week to ask the parking attendant for a hint

That was too tricky but we found it. Tftc

Not today.

Found it, unfortunately the ticket booth man I read so much about wasn't there, but a new guy that wasn't sure what I was talking about. Have educated him for future reference though c:

Found with Bryce, Rosalea and Liliana. Took only 15 min, holey hell that had me screwed.

Saturday afternoon was very quiet... so quiet there was no helpful attendant. Man! we could have done with a hint. We searched all levels without success until MrG had an idea. And it was a great one... minutes later we were signing the log. TFTC Alleycatz4700.

A good start to the day, needed a small shop before we head north and needed to come back to this one again to hopefully get that much needed smiley. We knew we had the right level just a matter of increasing the search area. Found the container in a couple pof parts. Signed and put back together and replaced.

TFTC,
Out in the sun today to grab a few caches before moving on tomorrow.
No one around to help us so it was up to guess where to be. As usual I got it wrong and found it at the last place we visited.
Added a favourite and visited trackables.

Geocaching with Wazza9, this one took a while needed a walk to a few levels, stamped log and replaced. Thanks to Alleycatz4700

Greetings from Brisbane. My husband and I decided to come up here for a weekend and what a great weekend it has been . I dropped my husband at the races and then had a walk around town to find a few caches. I did go up and down a couple of times before I found this tricky find. thanks for the fun

Super hard to find. But from some help from the man in the box, we eventually found it

That was tricky! Remember to look in all hidey-holes to avoid missing caches. Happy hunting

Took a while and after a small hint from the attendant, we were able to find it

Hmm which level. Yes I got it right and found the cache. Signed the log and returned to where I found it. Thanks Alleycatz. All good with this cache.

Found a while ago.

Found it!!! Again, looked in that place but not well enough thanks parking attendant! TFTC ?

First I had a muggles in the bus stop the car park had no attendant then spotted it and went to get it and a lady was in her car with the back down sitting took photo not sure that it does Justice

The lovely car park attendant made the search for this one not too difficult. Great spot for a cache in lovely Rockhampton

Very cool

I hit the jackpot and the awesome attendant was on duty. They showed me where it was hidden. Thanks.

This appeared to be an impossible task, yet there is help for those of us intimidated by the sheer range of possible locations. I approached the friendly attendant at the gate, who provided much needed advice. He had already figured out that I was caching as it must have looked painfully obvious. Thanks from a U.S cacher visiting from Okinawa, Japan.

Thanks Mr. V. for your help. My GPS is broken and my Iphone does ‘t give coordinates. Have to do it with an arrow on my screen. But found this nice tradi at 14:45.

Found. Thanks.

Found took a bit

Tricky little hide. Thanks to the gent cleaning the car park for the hint to which level we should be on and we located it. TFTC

Took a while , but eventually found the hidden away lil beastie . Thanks YOF

Hi there Alleycatz4700.

We found your cache **"3D Cache"** at 10:57:00 AM today. (This makes our find count 20385).

We started the day off by nominating a cache in Rockhampton, and then following a "next closest" route as determined by the GPS. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip around the area & ended up finding quite a variety of container types, and sizes hidden along our route. we found this one easily, but dropped it whilst extracting it fro its niche - so we had to retrieve it from the footpath and transport it back again.

We found 5 caches today & DNF'd 0. Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

Didn't have a pen but finally found it. Nice hide. TFTC

Well it took 5 attempts and a hint from youngoldfella but we gotcha!!!

In the area looking for hides and this one was the next one on the list. Quick find. Started up the top and worked ur way down but the co ords are good just have to find the right level. No one around as it was Sunday but there were a few cars on each level.
TFTC Alleycatz

We came across your cache, Alleycatz, after spending the morning in Yeppoon at an event.

Nice quick find and all in good order.

Log signed and cache replaced at 3:17 PM on May 27, 2018. TFTC.

I had a really good look late last year for this one, without luck, and returning here today, early this morning, I was somewhat disconcerted to see the markets were setting up. Stealth mode extreme. Discounting where I'd looked in detail last time (although a cursory look still) - I was able to mosey like a morning drunk and covered some considerable ground before something "moved" and wasn't organic. Success. Took it for a walk with me to sign, and a return visit some ten minutes later I got the blighter back (yes in the same spot). A tricksy hide Mistress catz ... approved[^].

Thanks for placing this cache, Alleycatz. Found in good condition.
*{Overall find #5616}*

Will return in business hours

Couldn't find this one, despite a really good look around and all levels - but apparently not all places.

Found this one ages ago! Must have forgot to log!!

Didn’t take too long, nice easy find TFTC

Found a nice family who helped us find it. Was a good time

Hard find.

This was my second and sixth cache hunt today and even with a hint of what level I was unsuccessful sadly.

A group of 6 people from today's Event had searched for a while, but weren't lucky. Tftc

Gave this a good shot on a nice quiet public holiday but unfortunately we didn't get it. Thanks anyway!

After some recent DNF's I dropped in and can confirm the cache is there and active. It's just a little tricky to find. Finding it during business hours means the parking attendant might give you a hint or two.

Another frustrating one that we spent far too much time looking for. Noone else about, so searched unhindered. No parking attendant to ask, so we moved on. These DNF's are getting frustrating!

It has been far too long since Seffnjarah, Swellerfungus and I did stupid things on a roadtrip a long way from home. So, a caching road trip from Brisbane to Rocky & Yeppoon and a few ports (and mountains) in between was planned. The well planned though overly optimistic caching itinerary included miscellaneous mind bending puzzles, half a dozen or so of Queensland's Oldest caches a few wee hill climbs, a healthy selection of unloved caches and any other interesting caches in between.

This cache was our third consecutive DNF on our hit list this morning. Tension and frustration in the team is building as a result.Three of us searched all three levels for quite some time before moving on. Unlike the last two which I believe are missing, I think a sneaky hide defeated us here.

Thanks Girl4god20

Pete

Visitied with the Bromance as part of our weekend roadtrip from Brisbane to Yeppoon and back. All three of us spent a considerable amount of time searching on all different levels but came away empty handed. No parking lot attendant today to pass on any hints. May be next time.

No luck

So hard cannot find need help

Tricky!!! But found it. Good one. Thanks

Another dnf can't seem to pinpoint this one.

TFTC

GPS took us to correct area but needed a little hint from below to pin point find . With melsiah . Tftc

Phew TFTC

Too big of an area haha we think we had the area but couldn't be sure. We will return.

On our trip around Australia we stoped here to grab the Cache.
We searched on all Levels. Finaly wie needed a hint from the Person from the Parking
Thank's to show us this place.

Greetings from Switzerland.

For another day...

We ducked up to the top floor to get a good GPS reading first off. Then tried all levels without any luck.
Maybe next time. .

Been staying in rocky for the last couple of days and this little bugger is only 170m from where I was staying so went looking on the Sunday morning which was market day.... Decided to come back in the afternoon gps was bouncing around to much this morning but this arvo it took me straight to it. So happy. Clever hide. TFTC

A team effort with Zoeandcalin.

Third time lucky on this one. At least I avoided market day not like last time!
GPS reception tough in the carpark - cache in good condition. Tftc and the challenge

Unfortunately our second DNF for the day. Attendant had no idea lol

Tftc

Woo Hoo Yipee yep the cache is still there and in excellent condition. SL TFTC

60 minute look with 2 other geocachers and no luck

Would say this ones been muggled and needs replacing or archiving as there are a lot of annoyed cachers with all of the non-existent caches in the area.

Another frustrating dnf

tryed but didn't find

Found

Took the multi layered approach in daylight hours during this afternoon rain. No luck today either.

Another one of seven DNF's for the day. Rockhampton has not been kind to me today.

Found it!!!

looked hard.If it is still there I couldn't find it.

Woohoo! First day, first find!!

Very crafty hide, fellow cacher/parking attendant was very helpful

Checked in on the cache today - its still there, and ready to be found.

Had a good look at this location without success. Lots of places to potentially hide a cache and the gps was not having a happy day with all the cloud cover. I didn't have the same helpful pay attendant that seemed to have helped various geocachers before me so I plundered on clueless. Great concept. Tftc, hope I have better luck next time.

Bit hard

What a great guy at the pay box took a while
