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 you plan on repairing this cache, please log a note to the cache (not email) within the next 45 days so I don't archive the listing for non-communication.

Could not find this one

It may have been washed over by dirt and weeds. Rubbish everywhere.

Spent 10 mins could not find

Didn't find this one today. My GPS kept taking us all over the place. Will get that fixed and then be back to see if we can find this one.

Found

Based on pics in previous logs we had an idea of what we’re looking for but no luck for us today. Tfth

Nice walk, easy find.

Found a year or two back - didnt log

We search here for 30" and no find for us nighteez

Nice walk along here.

I spent a good 15 minutes hunting for this cache, helped by my furry friend and muggle father.
I suspect the recent days (and days, and days) of heavy rain, and poor landscape maintenance have left it hidden. Will visit again soon!

No luck finding this one

Yippeee- found this time TFTC

Bit wet but found easy

Woohoo first find for me!!

After attempting this one almost a year earlier with little success, thought I’d try again with the current trend of smiles. As mentioned in other logs, is damp which made signing a little difficult.

DOing

Lovely view, cache needs maintenance, log soaking wet.

Log was pretty much moush. And the hide would look like garbage to a clean-up crew but thanks

On my way from Sydney back to Canberra, I decided to take the scenic route rather than just driving down the Hume Highway. And, of course, pick up a few caches.

This cache didn't take me long at all to find. The container was sitting in the open and when I opened it I saw that the log sheets had got pretty wet. They had dried out, but I think the sheets have stuck together so they might need to get replaced soon.

Thanks for the catch. Hard to find amongst the rubbish. Logbook slightly wet.

Nice and easy

Difficult find - log destroyed. Hiding rubbish amongst rubbish doesn’t help. Terrible clue.

Thanks for the cache and great camouflage, but would have been better away from the moisture.

Log soaked but a quick find

Nice quick find log to wet to sighn

Quick find but log is wet

Too wet

Interesting box but wet log. Great clues.

Found it

Didn't bring a pen so couldn't sign log. Tftc. Took some litter home with us

Could not find it. Lots of rubbish and sea weed

Great water view

Nice view! With @petethedete

After lunch at the nearby club, I went for a stroll to grab a few of the LIPT series.
At GZ I spied the hint immediately. Nice walk along the lake today in the heat. I hope it doesn't get washed away in the next big swell. TFTC

Took a bit of finding due to so much rubbish. With gigglestaitan

With finchkaa

I found a lizards hidy hole but no cache I would have looked for more than 20 minutes but the family thought i was odd taking pictures of the trees for that long

With wheatz

With luie20

So much rubbish around. It would be easy for this one to be muggled as it looks like a piece of rubbish as well. Not in a bad way! Quick find. TFTC

Lovely Cool today.. Drive around to Wollongong and Shellhoubour... Stay friend's house for few days... Hide well.. Thanks

Nice easy find by LSB1. Fair bit of rubbish around but a quick find.

Found near waters edge

Fairly easy find. Bring a pen

This seemed to be a more appropriate hint for LIPT No.42.

Searched for a bit amongst the rubbish but in the end I moved on.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Sifting through my bookmark lists, I found that there is quite a few caches that need attention from their respective owners or the local community volunteer reviewers.

Any chance the CO can check on this one?
Thank you

DNF...We searched high and low but had no luck today

Hmm

Quick find. Tftc

A cycle-caching day-trip to the Illawarra area on a 'warm' day. Spent most of the time looking for taps and bubblers to stay hydrated.

This was the 9th of 22 finds.
This one took far longer than it ought to have.
TFTC nighteez

We set out to do this powertrail today on the bikes - I thought it was about 30k total but we ended up doing about 45k, and cutting off a large part of the last third or so. I didn't realise that there is no 'nice' way up the western side - not fond of cycling alongside the freeway!

Continuing on the darling wife stayed with the bikes whilst I ducked into the bushes to grab this one.

The second on our ride around the lake for the day. Tftc.

14608. Found during Day 2 of a great weekend caching down in the Helensburgh / Wollongong region with specimenX and AngelG27.

A long planned weekend was finally here. Yesterday we finished off the Scouts and Helensburgh puzzle series plus a bunch of other caches. Today we generally moved south during the day grabbing some quality caches along the way. This was the next find for the day. The last time specimenX and I were caching down here there were many DNFs due to the then recent floods. Today we took the opportunity to fill some gaps left from that last trip. Quick find at GZ. Signed the log, replaced the cache, and we were on our way to the next one.

Thanks to all the CO's for their caches - very much appreciated !!

TNLN - TFTC !!

Off we go for another geomission! fitzy_1965, AngelG27 and I were off in the geomover to descend on the Illawarra region to knock off the Helensburgh puzzle series and whatever others we could nab along the way. Sunny spring weather and lots of laughs made for a fun weekend of caching!

Saw this one had been replaced so we swung by to make the find. Good to turn this previous DNF into a smiley!

Thanks for the hide, nighteez

Great little find

Cache 2933 on 3/9/17

Fitzy_1965, SpecimenX and I headed out on a long planned geomission to Helensburgh and Wollongong to grab a stack of solved puzzles and as-yet-uncollected traditionals. We headed up the highway from the ACT to Appin, then down the hill to Helensburgh and then made our way south. We have around 160 caches on the list, but managed to grab 90 odd yesterday. Looking to grab stacks of trads today on our second day of the mission. Unless otherwise indicated, caches were found quickly and in good order. Thanks to my geo partners in crime for a fun weekend



Thanks nighteez for the cache!

What a great view of the lake from this peaceful spot. TFTC nighteez

TFTC nighteez.

Found the geocache! Was very fun to locate and was in the right position. Photo of the geocache so you know what to look for:

Relocated - again! Must have been muggled in short time!Sorry for the inconvenience.

No luck with this one

Spent quite a while ago laming in circles on this one, given the amount of drug paraphernalia in the area I decided it might be safer to leave the area

Definitely not where it should be

Replace and moved slightly

There's a lot of DNF's - now second one and it's not much fun poking around in those trees

Not a good day second did not find

Another dnf to the list time for an owner check

Searched all around for 30 minutes came up empty handed. First dnf for the day

Did not find

Perhaps being replaced

Log in very poor condition. Black and damp. Unable to sign. Photo if required. Found with nissan 65 and shrimp 92. Thankyou for the cache.

Took a while to locate this one due to coordinates out by 15m only to find log in desparate need of maintenance unable to sign photo if required with cullum68 and shrimp92 thanks for the cache

Backon line. the area has been cleaned up and the old cache probablely got removed then too.

Back on line - moved just a short distance. The area has been cleaned up and the old container was probably a victim.

Disabling this one until I can find a better but nearby spot for it.

No luck for us today - certainly needs to be checked...

Nope no joy for us here. Yet another DNF statistic

With a string of DNF's, it might be time for a CO check up. Cheers

Long search but too much rubbish and overgrown.

A quick scan for this one and I found myself overwhelmed by the debris at GZ.
Didn't look too hard given recent rains and to no avail

We spent quite a bit of time searching for this one but unfortunately had to walk away empty handed. Hopefully next time. The water had risen quite high here of which there was lots of evidence around. We found alot of rubbish but unfortunately no cache. CO will need to check on this one.

Thanks anyways nighteez

Unfortunately this one eluded us. We think the floods could have claimed it, and the area is in desperate need of a cleanup.

Found on a wet wollongong day. Log sheet is very wet and unable to be written on. But good little hide

Signed back in to the gc website. Backlogging a majority of finds over the last year. Started my own account and it's time to sync it out. To avoid confusion I wont change the date logged. Send me an email (via profile link) or a message in the message centre (also via profile link) if you have any concerns.
