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.

Found 10:01 pm. I had to go over this way to pick up my geodaughter. She kind of bribed me with saying she would go along to find a geocache. I also needed to keep the streak going so I then identified some caches along with this one I would try to do. We arrived near to GZ via the trusty geovehicle and headed over to look for the cache. It wasn't too hard to locate. The logbook though is somewhat damp. Thanks for the cache.

Stopped by after work to nab this one, no one was about apart from a couple of dogwalking kids who disappeared quickly.. found quickly, theres another suspicious pile of rocks nearby which I tried first, a clever diversion perhaps! unfortunately, the log was saturated and I didnt want to risk signing it lest I damage it further.. needs to be dried out.. thanks for the cache!

First cache after my holiday in the US Smile The cache was guarded by a snail sheltering from the 30degree heat

A nice quick find at 1900 while I was in the area. No problems finding the cache, although a nearby Doggle decided to take (slight) issue to my presence and I fully expected to be challenged while I was signing. But I guess the locals are used to occasional visitors, as no-one stirred. Thanks for the cache CacheHunter83.

Nice easy cache, the hint is very descriptive.

Big day today - I'm having a week off for stress relief, and to get some exercise outdoors to alleviate incipient diabetes and blood pressure. What better way to do it that walking the dogs while caching? I've had to pick up my repaired CPAP machine, so I've done that, it's a beautiful sunny day, and I've got till midday, when I have to go to the dentist. I've prepared myself with maps and a loaded eTrex, I'm ready to go. No GeoSchnauzers this trip, as I didn't want to leave them in the car in the sun.

What a nice precise clue. Thanks for the cache. This is a pleasant little walk, and the day is turning out really beautifully. I'm feeling great!!!

Today while in the area we decided to tick this one off the list. We had been looking at it for awhile but decided to save it for a time when we needed a drive by. Today was the day as the geomuggle brother had his birthday and we were driving back to the parents house for presents.

Quick find at GZ although it looks like it may have moved a little.
Replaced as we found it.

I parked 20 metres away. A muggle was walking down the path, and this large black dog nearby starts barking as I attempt to approach GZ. Thankfully within a few minutes, I saw what I thought was hiding this little cache. Bingo! I was right. Signed log & replaced. Thanks.

Geocache #653.
Found on Monday, 9th September 2013 at 4:40 PM.
Conditions: sunny.
Current streak #40 days.
Today's finds 36 of 52.

My 552nd find for The Great Scouts Australia Geocaching Competition 2013. With just over a week of the competition remaining, I had some leave owing and decided to take it for a geo-adventure in the Australian Capital Territory and Canberra. What a way to celebrate Canberra's centenary, as well as the Federal election!

On day two of my trip, and after completing the NRL power trail early this morning, I continued the search for more in the afternoon. Once at GZ, it was a quick find and I soon had the CIH and log signed. After returning the cache, I turned around and was sprung by some muggles who startled me for a moment but they did not seemed bothered by my presence. TFTC CacheHunter83.

Day#29 Geocaching August streak.
Parked at the bottom of the main road and took geodog for a walk up the hill stopped found the cache after a short search then continued up the hill for a bit noticed a woman waiting didn't think much of it untill I returned and noticed two sheep, perhaps she is the shepard.. lol didn't expect them around here..
anyway thanks had been in this suburb for quiet a while... thanks
 
28-Aug-13
Only two caches for me today. Fortunately I had both found, log signed and back in place faster than it took to find one cache yesterday.
 
26-Aug-13
A nice quick find which was appreciated. TFTC.

Sunday 25 August 2013 - a glorious sunny winter's day without a cloud in the sky however a slight cool breeze kept my jacket zipped. Thx p2p, TFTC.
 
23-Aug-13
Had delegated this one for our August streak. The first time we'd tried to find it there were muggle kids swarming the place and we didn't stop. So here we are again, and the mission was successful today. TFTC.
 
23-Aug-13
This one has been around near us for a while. We'd dropped past once before but didn't bother getting out of the car as there were some muggle children playing right at GZ. Tonight it was dark and cold so we figured there'd be nobody there, and sure enough we had the place to ourselves. Walked up to GZ, spotted the hide and we soon had the cache in hand and log signed. TFTC CacheHunter83!
 
18-Aug-13
Two in a row (playgrounds for So that is) and caches too of course. Nice quick find at GZ. TFTC
 
18-Aug-13
The 'just before the muggles arrived' scenario continues here as well. TFTC

05-Aug-13
A nice quick find, thank you. Know these rocks so well as my kids used to play on them and in the nearby playground.
 
21-Jul-13
While it was still pretty cold, it wasn't raining. We needed some exercise and the dog is always keen for a walk. So, round trip from home to the cache was 10km, all completed just before dark. It's always good to have a cache within walking distance, thanks Cachehunter83.

done, as the description and clue where spot on:-) Cheers.

Quick find - a very quick find. The cache was out in the open Surprised and I almost trod on it heading to GZ. We returned it to the spot we think it should be. The owner might want to check. TFTC.
 
29-May-13
The cache was in full view out in the open. We re-hid it. TFTC.

This was the fourth cache I picked up while having a nice afternoon ride. Found the cache very quickly, as I could spot it from about 40 meters away. TFTC CacheHunter83!
 
18-May-13
2053. I arrived at a suitable car park for this one and spotted four bodies at GZ.
Upon realising that they were caching I made my approach. Talk about two poker faced geokids. They had the container in their hands but no amount of questioning them would make them reveal their secret. I think they have been well trained by the geoparents, good to see.
Great to meet some interstate cachers (Geocrazykids).
TFTC.

Beautiful sunny autumn day! Met boot65 at rocks.

Final cache found on a large caching day after getting the Planet Series. We parked on the nearby street, only to see a little toddler playing in the rocks. After a few minutes, the toddler left and we went over to try and find the cache. The toddler was running literally right next to the cache from what we could see. A nice easy find. TFTC CH83!
 
17-May-13
Went straight to it. Found on my way up the hill. Thanks
 
15-May-13
Couple of dogs annouced my arrival but a tell tale sign soon showed me where the cache was and it was quickly in hand. Signed and repalced just as quick and I was on my back to the shops......where I had parked.

3rd in a row....thanks for another one cacheHunter83

2013: 134 Days In A Row - a quick find for us on the way home. It's getting harder with the sun setting so early! But we're getting by, and now have torches permanently in the car. Wink TFTC
 
14-May-13
Day 134; cache 134. Rounded up the kids and picked Wasptor up from work and headed out for our daily cache. Glad there are some new ones popping up closer to home as it is becoming increasingly difficult with the disappearing sun. A quick pick up and signed log while geo kids took advantage of the nearby park. TFTC!
