Hi mufftop101,

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

Another DNF, time to get this checked out i think.

6 eyes. No luck. Must be missing

Nothing at the most logical locations.

DNF. Saw nothing resembling what I expected to see.

No luck for me here in the dark. One of the images gives away the type of hide (assuming it hasn’t changed) but I still couldn’t see it. Daylight might be helpful.

Found -- 8:33 am -- Thanks for bringing us to this location and Thanks for the hunt *mufftop101 and Spock1967*.

**Cache Condition:** Good and dry.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.
**Trackables:** None seen in this cache today.

**The Cache**
All good with this cache. I stopped for this one because it was a letterbox cache, but I didn't bring my letterbox book. I quickly discovered I need to buy stamp pad ink for times like this. I took a photo of the stamp, will print it out and glue it in my book. With CIH we signed the log in either our names or our initials in some switcheroo form of LP, DJJ, ToC and then returned cache to its hide'y hole exactly as found.

**The Day**
I am surprised, I have not done and solid caching for over a year. It is so nice to be out and enjoying nature again.
OCW *Mr TOC*, *Little Panther* and *DustyJapserJet* on a much welcome and impromptu overnight run to somewhere unknown, well... ... I did consider a night in Grenfell if we could get a bed there. With nothing booked we threw some clothes in a bag, grabbed some trackables for distribution and were out the door quicker than a scared jack rabbit. Element of surprise Mr TOC, element of surprise. I'm sure he was surprised I moved so quick and left him spinning [:-D].
We found a room at the local motel, definitely a *Pokemon* players delight with something like four poke stops and two gyms that can be played all night long from the comfort of your bed. With a few extra steps to the fence-line there are about three more that can be played.
We went to see the Grenfell Silo Art which was stunning, and wanted to go to Harden to see their but didn't have time. Caches to maintain, find and the need to get home for work tonight.
Had the most brilliant time away - happy wifey.

Travelling from Perth to Canberra with lots of side tracks.TFTC.
Nice container.

TFTC. Good hide, but easy to find.

A nice quick find while staying the night in Grenfell. A clever cache that looked a bit out of place. Tftc

As we were approaching, another car came in just in front of us. The occupant got out for a nature call– a good omen. As it was raining we were hoping it would be under shelter – it wasn’t but we found it anyway. TFTC

Find #6076

Caching my way across southern QLD, road tripping and trying to avoid the wet weather and flooding in various parts of the country.

All caches are in good condition unless otherwise noted

Found spread out on the ground as previous finders had. Log soaked but signed, now blue smudge

Thanks so much mufftop101 for putting out and maintaining this cache and for making taking me to new places to discover enjoy.

Passing by grabbing LGA’s thanks

Bit sneaky kids overlooked it and couldn’t find it TFTC

Nice quick stop on my long drive today. Easy find. Tftc

Found it tftc

Geocaching always leads us to some fascinating regional towns. With only another hour to drive we really appreciated a chance to stop and stretch at this lovely rest stop. It’s always a bonus to sign a cache too.

We enjoyed finding your cache today as part of our memorable road trip beyond Victoria.

I liked the alt coordinates better. TftC.

clever hiding spot

Looks like an animal had been playing with the cache. It was open and exposed, but nothing damaged. TFTC

Found...clever hide

Joined up with geo friends grannysmith1947, hatzofff and RoddyC on a road trip from Parkes to Wangaratta.
Great to stop here where a nice quick find was made.

Thank you, mufftop101 and Spock1967, for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

Day 3 of our southern trip. Heading to Wangaratta today, caching a bit as we go.

We were not originally intending to come this way: the flooded Newell Highway was the cause. Glad we did, as it enabled us to see something differently.

Log signed and cache replaced as found at 11:07 AM on January 12, 2022. TFTC, mufftop101 and Spock1967

Day 3 on our trip to Wangaratta Mega. Great day caching, travelling with our stopover in Wangaratta.

Day 4 of a 4 day road trip. Today was from Cobar back to Canberra. Mostly just a few widely spaced park and grabs to break up the journey. Cache easily found. TFTC.

Headed to the Bathurst 1000 grabbing some caches along the way TFTC

Found after I used the coords that Goldenwattle had in their log. TFTC

found with Slightly addicted

Found w/ The Cupcake Ninjas

We are staying in Grefell for the night so we could get the caches in town. This is one we found. We placed this log in a zip lock bag so it may last a little longer. TFTC Mufftop and Spock.

The GPSr had us out on the lawn in the middle of about 5 possibilities initially. Fortunately we found it at the second one we checked out.

Today we said farewell to Temora and moved on the short distance fo Grenfell. We picked up a few caches en route and arrived mid morning and set up in the donation camp at the Old Railway Station. A lovely setting with the restored station and a playground nearby. Only sharing it with one other! We then checked out the local area caching breaking it with lunch and a coffee at one of the local cafes. The scenery here with its rolling plains and hills is quite different to home. The storm clouds rolling in over the nearby mountains were spectacular.
As for the nearby silo art, amazing.
Thank you to the local cachers. A mixture of hides and a couple quite clever.

This one was tricky!!

Had a dnf last time very happy to now have a smilie yftc

Easy find had to wait for a gap in the mowers. SL TFTC

Very sneaky hide ??

Tft$

Thanks for the great cache

Did not find but maps not working.

TFTC. We are slowly making our way to the Queensland Mega at Dayboro. From Temora we detoured to Grenfell for an overnighter (or maybe an extra day depending on the weather forecast). After making camp we ventured out to find some caches and to explore the area. We had a great couple of hours 1 DNF and 1 maybe later as well as 11 finds.
Sneaky hide but found it in the end

No luck

Found after a short wander around
Thanks for the cache

Easy find, no pen so didn't sign log.

After failing to find this one 7 years ago, called in again today and made the find. Log unusable, so signed and left a piece of waterproof paper.

Thanks,

The roadtrip continues. Dubbo to Canberra (via Gundagai) today. A few more strategic stops on the way to break up the drive.

Thanks to all the COs for the reason to stop. This one was doubly convenient

My GPS was out about 7 metres. S 33° 53.422 E 148° 08.699
The log has disintegrated very badly and a new log is needed. I signed GW, but as I did the log crumbled further. Needs a CO visit. TFTC mufftop101.

Log has disintegrated. Needs a new log.

I didn’t look very hard.

Did not find

Making a dash to SA to meet up with Di Morgan. A long day in the car today but still managed to get a few the break the journey. Unfortunately all for nothing as the border is now closed.

We no find.

Tftc on a Monday drive

Easy find tftc

Nice quiet spot

finally really tricky one

Found this in week 5 of our 5 week outback adventure heading home to mid north coast NSW. TFTC

Yes we Found it, I was with SciFiRulz TFTC as nicnaxs

Yea ,Found it with SciFiRulz TFTC as nicnaxs

Found as Nicnax with PapaGrouch. We were travelling home and took the opportunity to pick up some caches. We added a sheet of paper to sign as the container was empty. TFTC

After a brief hunt, we found both halves of the cache, but no log.
We've taken a photo to make sure we've got the right one.
Thanks for the cache.

We didn't have a log to put in it and it needs putting back where it originally was.
It's near a larger brother at the moment.

Found it. Thanks guys

A little tricky to find but geohubby spotted a likely place and there it was. TFTC

While MrG had a leg stretch from driving I hotfooted it to GZ. Think I was a bit lucky with this find, it certainly wasn't what I was looking for. TFTC at a convenient spot mufftop101.

Last cache for the morning. A quick find in a familiar looking cache.

TFTC.

Well we did have to stop for the cache name

After a slow but successful banding weekend at Weddin Mountains (not many birds, but quite a few old retraps) it was time to head home via a few caches. The plan was to head a back way and pick up a few that were a bit out of the way, a couple I had missed on previous trips and then finish on a small power trail (Riverina Crops). Added a bit of time and distance to the trip to Albury but had plenty of time (and it was just plain hot there anyway).

Heading into Grenfell for fuel and this one was on the way. Probably needs a higher difficulty as the coordinates are pretty ordinary (like others about 5m past GZ) and the hide is pretty small (though if you have seen these before it shouldn't be a problem). Got there in the end, but glad no one else was stopped for a break.

TFTC. Nice cool Sunday afternoons drive around Grenfell.

Heading back form the QOGM event in Queensland we were zig zagging our way back.

We pulled up here and couldn't believe our luck to find this great little park was deserted, being a week day probably helped with this as there are certainly facilities here to keep everybody happy but today I was only interested in a cache find.
It worked out well that there was nobody here as the search took a little longer than expected and it was only after we read previous logs that we expanded our search and made a nice easy find.

Many thanks for showing us this great little park.

Tftc

Tftc. Quick find

Tftc. After searching with the kids for a few minutes, mrs Jaybeem walked straight to it.

With a day free I decided to go for a drive to Grenfell and clean it out. This didn’t end up happening as some caches I couldn’t find and some are missing (according to past logs). About ½ of the caches I found today are in need of some urgent TLC. The list of issues includes: cracked containers, waterlogged/full logbooks, missing parts of field puzzles, incorrect coordinates and completely missing containers. I did try my best to help CO’s with these problems as much as possible but unfortunately, I didn’t have enough supplies with me for all of them. I hope the CO’s will continue maintaining these great hides, to stay alive for others to find in the future. Today was a great day full of creative hides, great locations, fun hikes and lots of laughs. TB visit on all found caches today and on some of the smaller log books/sheets I signed as 13/9 JM. Even though I was upset with the state of some of the caches around, I still would like to say thank you to all the CO’s for taking the time to place the caches I found and the fun I had while finding them today. Sorry about the generic logs. Only the more interesting hides and DNF’s will get an extended logs due to the amount of caches I found today.

DNF for Temingi today as we track to an appointment on the North Coast of NSW.

07:27
Our last day of NSW travel as we headed south towards the border after attending the GeoMuster in Morisset. Towing the van we made stops for caches where there was room to safely pull off the road, this spot fitted the bill perfectly.

Thanks 'mufftop101' for placing caches for everyone's enjoyment.

A quick P & G at this one now to find the local caravan park for the night. TFTC.

Narrandera - Grenfell
We stopped on the roads where suitable to pull over with a caravan on, to find a cache.
We have now set up camp at the old railway station. After a lunch break we did a tiki tour of the town, finding some very cleverly hidden caches in some great location. The town was very hot today.
Thanks for placing this cache mufftop101

The geo hubby found this tricky little hide especially as the co-ordiinates were a little out. SL; had a pit stop and we were on our way TFTC

Quick find. As suggested by others coordinates a little out. Log dry. Signed and on our way. Tftc.

Needed a call of nature so stopped here. Wonder if there is a cache nearby? YES. Quick find. TFTH
