Good Day,

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 a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Thanks for the cache !

Hidden amongst the trees on top of the bike path. Although it looks as though Superman has seen better days as only his arm remains (which Squirrellette seemed to have a lot of fun messing around with!). The cache lid has cracked, leaving the logbook damp, so the container will eventually need replacing. Once Squirrellette was done messing about, we left some swag, returned the cache, and continued to the next.

Cache lid cracked, so is no longer waterproof. Logbook damp and almost full.

Found last night
 
18-Sep-17
After finding the other cache up the bikeway, and seeing this one had only been found once this year! I simply had to keep walking the bikeway sans bike to have a hunt for this one.
At gz, i think it has suffered from cache creep at some point, but if you widen your search you are sure to uncover it. Tftc!
 
Walked to this one for a quick grab on a late night after work.. This was a spooky grab at night so I decided to leave the next one up for daylight! A very obvious hide, but I left it as it was found. Thanks for placing

Out looking for a cache this morning after last nights, night shift to keep my streak going. This one makes forty four consecutive days in a row Big Grin That's my best effort so far Smile
The actual cache wasn't difficult to find. What I had the most trouble with, was getting a close enough parking spot to walk into this one (no bike here). I'd driven too far past on my first try, and quickly found out I couldn't get to it from the other road. So back I went and because most spots are taken up by park and bus riders, I wound up parking a little further than what I thought I was going to. No problem though, a little extra walk is good exercise anyhow Smile
So I walked up the bike path (didn't see any bikes) and pretty quickly had the cache in hand and added my signature to the list Smile
A bit of graffiti on the way in here. Or is it spiritual advice? (picture attached)
Thanks For The Cache culture50 Smile

Nice easy find while out for a bike ride.

Found It! Was loose on the floor. We moved it slightly higher up...
 
03-Jul-16
It was an adventure to get there. Wouldn't recommend for young children - a little steep for them. Fun as we did this after dark! Lol.
 
24-May-16
Found with help of geocaching toddler. He has had so much fun today looking for geocaches thank you
 
07-May-16
So I ended up going into the dead end street. Looking around for the cache. Then I realised the GPS was pointing another 6m. But next to me is a wall. I looked at the logs and realised it was on the other side of the wall on the bike path. Drove close enough to park and walked. Superman ur arm isn't connected but thanks for guarding the cache for all of us to find. Tftc

Cool cash funny container
 
21-Oct-15
This was my cache of the day. I tried to find the other one on the bike-way but in the morning were to many cyclist there. Also this time then I stopped and looked at my phone someone asked my if I need help. I don't know is it not allowed to stand with your bike on a bike-way or is it because I am a young woman who looks like that she needs help all the time? I have no idea.

Sneaky! A bit tricky as on foot. TFTC!

Found it thank you we just introduced another geo virgin super man helped us
 
10-Jun-15
With NurseyJulie. We tried one side but the cache wasnt there, so we wandered around the other side (after moving the car). At GZ, there were quite a few places to search, but I found the cache quickly as it was out in the open. We signed the log and put the cache bacck where we found it, but with some natural cover to hide it from muggles
 
10-Jun-15
A short walk from the car. Did not encounter any bikes along the way. A quick scrabble up and found the cache in the open -but out of reach of muggles. TFTC culture50
 
31-May-15
Quick find. Kinda sitting out in the open tho... SL
 
31-May-15
Found GZ easy enough and quickly nabbed the cache with mstrcam Smile cache was out in the open but not visible to passers by, replaced where found as not sure where else it should live. All in good condition. Tftc.
 
07-Apr-15
Needs new log TFTC
 
08-Feb-15
Have been wanting to find this one for a while now. Had to wait until the family was out for a ride. Thanks Super man for watching over it.

Find #1566

Not a lot of caching time available today but we'll see if we can squeeze in 10 smilies! Smile
Ninth one for the day & it took us on a little side trip before getting back on track.

Yes, followed the Geo-beast GPS to the GZ co-ords & after scratching around, for a few minutes, with no results we had a rethink. Hmmm, I think we need to be somewhere else!
Back into the Geo-beast & headed for our revised GZ destination & after a few minutes walking, guess what we found?
No muggles about so extracted the log, signed & replaced as found for the next adventurer.
Turned around to leave & was almost caught out by a junior muggle cyclist who was stopped & waiting for his Dad. That was a close one!

Like others, thought the easy way would take us there. After a longer walk around found the headless superman (and reunited him with his arm). Log signed. Good spot.
 
13-Jan-15
Found superman's arm but no sign of cache. Will be back.
 
12-Dec-14
Thanks superman. TFTC

Woohoo found it

21-Sep-14
The next closest unfound cache so I figured I may as well head over and take a look.

I started with the same mistake many before me it seems have made by attempting to take the closest access to this one. Not particularly wanting to take the fall to the path below I opted to go and find the way around.

It was really not that far to walk, and I was soon in the right spot for the find, I know because I found superman. But then I was trying to figure out where the log was and took the thought he is not the cache.

So it took a little bit more searching around, and at the same time got a call from LHE Duo on other matters, but it was while I was on the phone I spotted what I was looking for and sure enough got the log signed and everything replaced before heading back to the car.

TFTC
 
18-Sep-14
That was fun! (It's dark so it was a little harder haha) also superman is headless!
 
04-Sep-14
A month or so ago I pulled up in a nearby street thinking I was close to this cache then realised it was over a giant wall. So today I set off on my morning walk to sign my name in the log. It was a long walk but I was delighted the bike way was empty. Then the challenge of scaling great heights hit me. At first glance I wasn't sure I'd manage the unstable surface without slipping and sliding back to the starting point. A little look around uncoverd a well worn path. Once up the embankment I soon discovered the hidden treasure. Once the log was signed and the path negotiated I then faced the long walk home. What a fabulous walk on a crisp morning. TFTC.

Awesome spot!
 
24-Aug-14
Out for an afternoon ride and picked up this one. TFTC

Super Sunday!!

Superman may hav been 'cornered' here. Alsa he is dead. Pic provided.
 
07-Jul-14
Super man is getting worse for wear.
Definitely had a couple of slips where we could have used supermans help.
TFTC!
 
31-May-14
Yay found superman !!!

Went for a bike ride with the kids today and crossed this one off our list. TFTC.
 
24-Apr-14
While the car was being serviced what could one do? One could geocache, by geocycle of course.

Heading down the highway (so to speak) I stopped to seek this cache. This was the most southern part of the journey planned for today but given the bike expressway that has been constructed along here I’m sure I can venture further down this way with little hold-up (unlike those on the nearby black tar )

The superman here is a very broken man. I could have done with his assistance "one day" but others provided help there. Wink

So it was a nice day out and about. - http://connect.garmin.com/course/6400883

Super!
 
12-Apr-14
Super duper
 
12-Apr-14
That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.
 
12-Apr-14
Found it. Superman has been trashed!
 
22-Feb-14
Came back a second time and found it just hanging around

TFTC [^]

Smile!!!!!tftc!!!!!! A nice quick walk at night and a easy find for a cacher with a broken rib Smile.
 
16-Feb-14
We were so close to this one on our travels today we decided to take a short detour and soon found ourselves at GZ.
Superman is still hanging in there... just.

Very Happy

Nice spot. Above it all. Superman orobably fell. Lingua-file
 
04-Feb-14
Out on the geocycle today to round up a few caches. I started with the new series at Yeronga Memorial Park and then headed off on a loop.


I had not originally planned to try these caches but my route brought me close enough to make the detour seem wise.

I don't think I have ridden this part of the bike path before. I have been along the busway in a fire truck though Wink

This was a nice quick find thanks.
 
24-Jan-14
Good cache we saw heps of buses
 
12-Jan-14
Great little cache. Took some looking. Superman is in a bad way - poor fella. Thanks!
 
08-Dec-13
Such a sunny Sunday to be out and about looking for geocaches. Big Grin
After a big morning hiking over the hills I headed for a few 'easier' ones on my way home. Razz
I still had to walk a couple of hundred meters to this one. Wink
A little bit of searching before I spotted this one. Big Grin
Thanks for the cache.
 
23-Nov-13
Decided to go for an avo bike ride with IolantheK down the Southeast Freeway Bike-way [^]
Grabbed this one along the way. IolantheK had grabbed this one another time, so it was left to me to find this one myself. It was good to come at this one from a different angle Razz
The cache is dry and in good condition [^]
TFTC culture50 Cool

Finding the right way in to this one is tricky, but I eventually made my way to the right spot. Superman is still there, although looking a tad disturbed... Razz TFTC, culture50.
 
28-Oct-13
Nice hide.
 
27-Oct-13
Thought it was an easy find in the culdesac, but had to approach the walls from another angle. Superman indeed guards the location - if you find it hard just hang in there.
 
17-Oct-13
Superman is keeping guard!
 
17-Oct-13
Originally parked about 16 metres from cache, a big barrier, no possible entry. Drove back around, found a park. We also ignored the cycle only signs and walked to GZ. Also saw no cyclists whilst we were here, misssusan finally made the find. Tftc.
 
17-Oct-13
Found. Yes we were cornered here. Even Superman had crashed through the trees - should have looked through the wall before jumping it. Did not wave to the buses passing by. We braved the bikeway on our invisables to get to the coordinates.
 
12-Oct-13
I came for a look at this one way back but forgot to log my DNF. It was the old story that you can be literally a few metres from GZ but there was no safe way to access it. I then struggled to find an entry point from the north and abandoned my search.
Tonight I found the southern entry and figured as long as I stayed up on the grass whenever possible, I would be OK. A couple of cyclists went by (and a couple of roller-skaters: does that count?) but they weren't too worried.
I was up in the corner in no time but found zip. I was just about to make a very rare PAF when I suddenly spotted it. What a relief! All fine and no X-ray vision required. TFTC c50.

Took us a bit of time but the wife knows how to look for things, superman should help others
 
28-Aug-13
This one had Net88 and Whint & Bad Dal doing all sorts of circles around the area while on the hunt. After a sneaky PAF that didn't shed any light on the situation Whint finally found the beast.

Thanks for the cache culture50 Big Grin
 
28-Aug-13
This was the last cache for me whilst out with Nyssaflutterby and Whint and Bad Dal. We parked initially on the wrong side of the fence, as it seems most people do, and then parked in a better spot and ignoring the sign walked up towards GZ. Once we were at GZ we started hunting around for the cache. The place looked like it had been searched recently. We had no idea what we were doing wrong but we couldn't find the cache. A quick PAF told us that we were in the right place just maybe not looking in the right spot. We started looking in different places and Whint found the cache almost immediately. Thanks for the cache Culture50
 
28-Aug-13
Last cache for the day with Nyssa Flutterby and Net88 - this one caused us a few issues in finding... to begin with we ended up on the wrong side of the fence... by why... there is a perfectly good corner right here Razz

We made our way to a more suitable entry point... what?? bikes only? Well we have our imaginary bikes with us today so off we 'ride'!

Getting to GZ and this is where the fun really began.... looking, looking, looking... over here, up there, down here, maybe here.... nop, nope, nope.... three sets of eyes and we were running out of time before Net88 hard to go to work (seriously, who works when there is caching to be done) we eventually PAF and withing seconds the cache was in hand Smile Thank goodness!

I had to get out and find a cache and this was the closest to where I was so I drove over and found the access. Why are these paths restricted to cyclists? I might have to start a class action from pedestrians who want a quick walk to the city to provide a pedestrian only path.

Anyway I ignored the sign and took the stroll. The search area was obvious when I arrived but for the life of me I couldn't locate the cache. A call to the CO to verify that I was searching in the right area and then I still took another 5 minutes to locate it. I think I need new glasses.

TFTC. BTW I didn't see a cyclist in the 30 minutes I was in the area.
 
20-Jul-13
Found a spray can and a destroyed superman doll. We will be back - probably when there is some hints; Great place to put one culture50!!
 
07-Jul-13
Up early to go look for the last of the new caches along the new ( or not so new but recently opened) bikeway. I overshot the nearest entry and ended up parked less than 10m from the cache but there was a 5m noise barrier which I wasn't about to try and climb. So with a bit of back-tracking I found the end of the bike path. In past the "bike Only" sign and 150m to the cache. GZ was up there judging by the shoe prints on the hillside. Once at GZ I walked around looking in all the obvious places but finding nothing. Hmmmm! - lucky this wasn't 1 am in the morning or I might have given up. A bit more looking and the cache was spotted.

Noticed a cache close to home and thought I could make a quick night find with the geokids. Turned out we got cornered Sad will come again in the daylight.

*FTF*

Two new cache's published so close to home.

Hmmmm which one first.

Grabbed geohound & off we went.

Pulled up in the wrong street but eventually got to GZ.

After I quick search the cache was in hand.
