Cache was muggled and found a short distance away in the scrub. It is still the original cache and has been re-instated to its correct location. Apologies for the extended period it took me to do this, I am frequently away for a week or two at a time. Anyways, it's back online folks. Happy caching.

DNF for this one, We looked at all the likely spots you would/could hide a cache around near GZ, also looked at previous logs for any hints. We found a nice little hidy hole, where we think it should have been. . Yodes.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

We attempted this one, as it had been found, but after reading the logs, maybe it has not been found in a while. We could not find it, and searched thoroughly, though it cannot be in many places. GZ is the pole with a sign on it.
 
30-Dec-20
Tftc, as with previous posts, cache needs maintenance, cheers RIGBYinc
 
28-Dec-20
Ditto with the previous post. TFTC.

Up from Sydney to attend a funeral and then heading away, my Specialgeoson and I went looking for this cache. We must be the best dressed cachers ever in our funeral dressage? Unfortunately the log is so wet it was not possible to leave my X. I took a pic to verify.

TFTC Yodes. After all the rain it looks like this is in a bit of a flood zone. The log is very wet. SL with sharpy. Thanks for silver coin.

This cache has been archived for a while and I apologise for this. To reflect this fact, the next finder will be rewarded with a small solid silver trinket.

Apologies to tiddalik and other cachers for the delay in getting this cache back on line. All good and ready to go. Happy caching!

The cache appears to have been muggled. Has been moved from original location for reasons unknown to a new location not related to where it was originally placed. Give me a day or two and cache will have been renewed.
