Time to archive this one. The surroundings have changed and having problems with insect infestations.

Found but I think the owner needs to come check on it. The shrub is gone. The container is out in the open and infested with ants, roaches and I saw a few bugs I don't even know the names of. I didn't sign anything.

Sounds like this needs maintenance but we can't get to it for a few weeks.
 
Wow great cache!

Awesome idea for a cache, Went out with a newly converted muggle friend of mine for a night time cache, around 12.30 we donned the flash lights and heading into the dunes. I should of not worn shorts as my legs are cut up from the blackberry but all in the name of a cache. Nearly had a heart attack when at GZ and woke up a bird that pretty much flew out from under my feet. TFTC really loved the idea and thought put into it!

Unique cache, I like the thinking on this one. Met some other cachers on the way, always good to have a chat! TFTC Smile

We took the wrong path in, dragging young grandchildren through long grass, but when Poppa located the huge cache it was suddenly all worthwhile. This is such a fun cache with unusual logbook! Poppa took care of that while kids carefully chose and replenished stock in the cache. We loved seeing another view of this lovely beach and met some Aussies carrying a GPS receiver as we were leaving....always nice to spot and meet fellow geocachers.
Thanks for the cache and Happy Christmas/New Year.

Ha ha awesome!! Having family Christmas this weekend so a quick walk to cache was in order. Tftc
 
10-Dec-13
Brilliant - A lot of 'logs' lay in the container signed so I've untwisted and re threaded the 'log'. It's looking pretty awesome now but I dare say - it's getting to need some more... logs? Fav from me and I've dropped off the 'Chef' TB
 
19-Nov-13
Love it! - brilliant idea, executed with love & finesse! And the biggest cache we've found yet! What next - a suitcase on wheels? Delightful & a favourite. TFTC. SL. Thanks Bridgeaway.

This has got to be the largest cache container I have found so far and I loved the beachy theme. Thanks for bringing me here too. A favourite point for this. <(° ͜ʖ ͡°))))>

This was well done, we are sure you wont run out of log paper. TFTC
 
17-Sep-13
It seems we wood, log. Big Grin Having decided to take the cross-country route that the GPSr indicated we were soon at GZ and discovered the sizable container containing a rather fascinating driftwood creation. Having chosen a suitable piece to log our find we departed via the easier geo-trail. Thanks for another interesting cache Bridgeaway.

This is the hugest cache we have ever seen (and we've seen quite a few!!). In fact so big, we first thought "nah that can't be it!". Another innovative cache from Bridgeaway Smile Got us back to the true meaning of a "log" book! Really good fun! SL. TFTC Smile

At first sight, it looked like part of a CITO event. But after a deep breath, found it was the cache. Signed a log and repacked the cache.

Thanks Bridgeaway. Have a fav for this one.

Early start for a cache challenge today, and this was one of the cache finds that helped us to achieve our goal. Surprised to find such a large container so well hidden. Decisions decisions, which colour to choose to complete the inventive log, great fun TFTC.

Great idea for a "logbook", one not to get mushy and soggy like the more processed ones tend to get when wet Big Grin
Fave for the idea!!
