This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.
Had a good look about here for this one. For a D1 it should be easy. There seemed to have been a little pile of now scattered rocks here, was it under there? Maybe this one needs a check by the CO?
Made a pretty thorough search along the fence line, but with no success finding the cache.
TFTC - was hoping to drop all my Sydney TB'S off but unfortunately no room for Yellow Fish here. Will try another cache later today. Grabbed a TB from here but not stated in inventory. Will update log and inventory asap.
After a botched attempt of trying to pick up a few caches last night at Coffs, one because a seance was happening in the bush (we hightailed it out of there quick smart!!!) and at the next one the shopkeeper came out shooing us away, all we were doing was trying to find a bit of plastic! When arriving in Hunter Valley for our holiday ahead of Woodyrothwell, we thought we'll go out and do a quick loop while waiting for them to hit beer o'clock or wine o'clock now that we have hit wine territory and see if we have better luck! Spotted a peacock on the drive to cache and geo-son told us "his theory" of how a peacock's name came about!!! Geo-kids happy to be in the country and not near the coast line anymore after geo-dad's rescuing tactics in the water...

Found at 0835. Our first for the day parked right next to it and quickly had the log signed. TFTC.
A quick park and grab on a glorious sunny day, whilst exploring the Hunter Valley and surrounds. There is no need to go under the barb wire fence, as our GPS was sending us in there 10 metres and cache is on the roadside of the fence line. TNLN SL TFTC
I am slowly making my way north today 
and finding a few caches along the way.
A quick find here.
Thanks for the cache.

I'm up in this area visiting dear friends for a 50 th birthday I took this opportunity to do some caching in the hunter region and all so stop by some wineries. Mixing my 3 favourite things. Friends wine and caching. TFTC.
Great afternoon caching. Our daughters found this one pretty easily. Took minion, and small purse trinket. Left well done badge, bracelet spelling "cache" and sticker sheet. TFTC.
Decided to drop in to find this cache after all the muggles were gone. Pretty quick find once the coast was clear.
today we planed to do most of the HEX series and others of the area...thanks.very noisy!!!!
Today we set off in fine weather to do a bunch of caches along the expressway and surrounds, keeping to 'park and grabs' as we had master 3 year old with us.... turned into a rain-cache day! We persisted and had a great day, with zero DNFs, and no wet soggy caches either! Take note Cooranbong! 
Spotted quickly, signed and recovered - TFTC BillDary

I headed out this way to grab the rare and mythical Pokemon MEW. But a quick detour was on the cards and I ended up here for a very quick find. Across the road was closed, I will have to come back some day soon with my young family. I found a miniature peacock tail feather, but would not fit in the container, so its a bit further to the right of the container. I then chucked a U-turn and got my Mew.
Thanks for the nice sized cache!

out for a nice drive today and finding some caches . this one was spotted easily and we used the mighty triton to hide us from muggles across the road. Thanks for the cache BillDary tnln sl
Early morning but still lots of people at this location. Left some small toys. Lots of rubbish/paper in the cache. TFTC
Easy but have to watch out for muggles. No swaps inside so we left a couple of toys.
QAEPAG, SL in my car with aircon on, but then.... Hunter Valley What The........!!! I had to wait 15 mins to return the cache because a pair of touristic muggles parked exactly 1m from GZ and ate their lunch in their car while consulting the map. TFTC BillDary
School holidays. Summer. And our own local zoo.
It has improved since I was last here. Lions and merecats and everything.
And the kids loved it.
Oh, and we found a cache here on the way home.
Tftc-
The trackables listed are no longer present.

Staying in the hunter valley to go to the hunter valley gardens and thought Id grab a few caches while in the area. Got to this gz and made a quick find while listening to all the sounds that came out of across the road TFTC
Found with 2curiousfor2 on a cloudy day in the Hunter Valley. Merry Christmas everyone. Ho ho ho.
Hunter Valley whaat? Well, it is not the famous gardens, that's for sure. Was serenaded by a peacock from across the street while hunting for this cache. The hide didn't pose any problems, and off we went into the heart if the valley for more explorations. TFTC!
At a conference nearby but we have to keep our daily streak going! So with a bit of free time, I was off to get a cache and this popped up on the radar. Despite the zoo being closed, there was a bit of activity around but the cache was an easy find in the end. Thanks BillDary
Log book is full, so we added some paper. No tracks led, please remember to log them as you take them.
After visiting a friend in the area, I was headed home, and decided it couldn't hurt to divert for a cache or two n the way home - turning off the main road I remembered I had been here a couple of times in the past for work purposes, so then understood the cache name.... Arriving at GZ though, I was slightly delayed in my P&G while another family pulled up and entered the facility.... I then trotted over to GZ for a quick find to the call of the nearby peacocks thanks for the cache BillDary!
thanks for the cache BillDary!Today we travelled from Broke to Kurri Kurri. A fantastic drive amongst the grape vines with a backdrop of great looking mountain landscape. Many interesting caches found during the day.
What an unexpected location,didn't know it existed.
We placed a new log into this cache

Nice easy find on our way to winery to see Neil Diamond. Needs new log book. Tftc
Set out for a walk to this one from the nearby hotel. Got about half a mile and gave up. Not used to the flys yet!
Jumped in the car and had the cache in moments.

A gap in the cars parked along here made it easy to find. We parked further up and discovered this little grave. Tftc
