Had another look. It's definitely been removed from site. Cache owner hasn't logged in since Tuesday, 22 April 2014
I'm pretty sure this one is gone. There seemed to be nothing to find, even with two pairs of eyes.
Pretty sure it is gone, looked all over the place and could not find it anywhere
Searched all over. Couldn't find it. Found some really good hiding spots but no cache.
My girlfriend had to pick up a food van trailer from Arana Hills in Queensland. 8 day road trip from Perth-Brisbane-Perth and it is a great opportunity to pick a few geo cache on the way there and back. We had a great trip and most caches were easily found...TFTC
Missed this one earlier in the day when we did the nearby Earth Cache, but we came back to pick it up later this afternoon .
Looked around in lots of places, even found a spot the looked quiet cachey, but to no avail . Widened our search area, still without luck [B)].
We'll keep watch to see if others find it. Thanks Jamesy ej.

Thanks. It took me two lovely morning walks to find it. Great view and spot in the early morning breeze.
Doing a two week road trip of the outback from Canberra through to Cameron's Corner, Broken Hill and the Northern parts of Victoria with Genghicat.
Today saw us travel from Broken Hill down to Mildura. We did a number of caches in Broken Hill and picked up a couple on the way south before spending a couple of days in Victoria.
Nice quick find

Nice quick find after doing the nearby virtual. The cache was out in the open, so hit it according to the hint provided.

During our holiday-trip in AUSTRALIA we are searching for some caches on our Route between Muswellbrook/Cobar/Broken Hill/Angaston and Adelaide and so vreaksaw67 and i decided us for this one

TFTC and many greetings from AUSTRIA

3:49:00 PM. I thought this one was gone but then the better half found it a bit further away. Cache all good. Signed log and rehid. Thanks for placing this cache.
We are staying in Broken Hill for the night so we headed out to grab some caches whilst we are here.
Only took a couple of minutes to find, by the Bear for a change!
No TB inside.

Found late afternoon and soon after my arrival in Broken Hill, after flying in later than expected (2.5 hours on the ground in Wagga to fix a broken auto-pilot). I was quite familiar with GZ having worked at the adjacent school a few years ago. A lot clearer outlook today than back then when a dust storm turned day to night. The cache was soon located and log signed - all good at GZ! Dipped two TBs through for mileage. Many thanks jamesy ej
A wonderful lookout we visited thanks to caching, was good to read all in information contained in the signs. GZ proved to be a bit elusive until I read some of the previous logs and expanded my search - the cache was very soon opened and signed after that. Thanks for the hunt this afternoon jamesy ej.
Found despite the GPS which had us wandering all over the hillside. Great views - thanks for bringing us here and for the cache.
Took lots of photos from here as the views across the town were wonderful. Outsmarted the GPS and found it. TFTC
I was walking around and around and around in circles of about 8 metres following my GPS. Finally I got sick of the laps and phoned a friend who helped me locate the cache. Tftc, interesting spot.
Tnbtravels found their first cache here. Excited by the challenge and had to pose for an 'oh what a feeling' photo once we'd replaced the cache!
Thanks for the interesting spot we would nor have found without geocaching! Found with Geoteens.
Up from Adelaide for the weekend. Great look out. Interesting information boards. Lots of muggles about on a lovely Saturday. Tftc
Good overview of the mine from here. The gps led me astray but the super snoop geowife found the location TFTC
This was number 15 of 78 finds found on a Vietnam veterns trip up to Lightning Ridge in northern N.S.W. We travelled through Broken Hill,Bourke,Wallgett,then on to the Ridge.The return trip was back to Willcania,then down through Menindee to Wentworth,Berri,then home. Finding caches on the way made the drive a lot more interesting. Thanks for the hide.
Found at 12:47 PM GAFF#. Replaced the cache today with a 1kg plastic fruit container. There is just a log book and a pen.
It is situated at the same location in a little cairn that has been built with the many rocks that are strewn around that area.
Thanks jamesy_ej and to pprass .

Thankyou
I have replaced this geocache a few times now. It is located near a school so i am assuming the children are having fun with it.

We will try and replace this cache as there is nothing at GZ other than a hundred upturned rocks from cachers looking - the place is getting wrecked and will get worse if it goes on for any longer and the CO doesn't seem to be interested anymore in this cache.
We spent about 20 minutes looking for this cache but we did not have any success. Given the large number of DNFs, it seems time that this cache is checked and appropriate action taken. Thanks jamesy_ej

Another stunning view of broken hill. Unfortunately couldn't find it. Thinking school kids might have found it.
I think we found it, couldn't put our name down as there was nothing there. Hope we got it right
The obvious spot had rocks strewn everywhere and loads of garbage.seems Unsavoury types visit this location.
Had a look this morning and the obvious place looks to have been muffled. If some one or the owner is able to check that would be great. Happy caching.
Judging by the amount of DNFs on this one, I figure we're not alone in saying that perhaps this one needs some attention?
I went hunting for this on my last morning in town for this trip, on the day the GC site was down for maintenance. I could see where it should be, there was a lot of rubbish around, but could not find the cache. Hope it hasn't been muggled, it's a great spot for a cache. Thanks, jamesy_ej, and I'll come back and find it next time.
Does anyone have any tips for this cach because I'd like to have another go when I'm not so busy.
I wasn't able to sign the logbook but I left a toy solider and took a sheep. It was tricky looking at night for the cache! Great game
Thankfully we checked the app after logging orebody to find that this was near. TFTC
After waiting till it cooled down went to grab a few caches before dinner. Easy find then took a fee pictures. Took Nothing Left nothing. Slgned Log
