unable to replace if trees are gone.
 
28-Jan-19
No update on NM log. Likely time for this one to go.

This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.
 
10-Nov-18
If the throwdown was placed in the pruned tree at GZ then it’s gone - those two trees have been removed completely. If it was placed somewhere else then I checked the nearest alternative host but couldn’t find anything. So either the cache is gone or the coords are no longer correct - either way the CO needs to check on this one.
 
10-Nov-18
This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Couldn’t find it! Checked it out on a Wednesday night, very busy! There’s a lot of fencing around, not sure if it affects it or not. Saw a tree root laying on the ground. Will go back during the day time.

Performed maintenance. The other team logs show it must be missing. Obvious place at about head height and no other places so well concealed.
Container is about 80mm high and should be waterproof.

27-Sep-17
For me this was a hard geocache but it was still fun
 
25-Sep-17
Cache missing although it appears from the activity comments that others have replaced it with a log in a bag. Suspect it was muggled by tree loopers.

10-Sep-17
Container not here but found lid and zip lock bag with log.
 
24-Aug-17
Found the lid of a mint tin and some munched up metal which I guess was the cache. I replaced the log and put it on a ziplock bag . I hope this is ok with the owner.
