Needs maintenance was lodged in January with no response from the CO. According to GC.com the owner has not been on the site since July 2015
This cache is no longer there and as the CO has not been active for nearly 18 months, and has not checked out the DNF's, this should be Archived
Despite a determined effort, widening the search area, and a good clue we came up empty handed 
DNF for me, meet Michells&hound here. Three sets of eyes couldn't spot this cache.
Taking the geo kids caching during the school holidays, while towing a 24 foot caravan. We'll grab every opportunity to grab a cache. A quick easy find, thanks to the description.
Thanks Gold Nugget 77 for placing & maintaining the cache for us to find.

This was an easy find as we found the cache as we walked towards GZ. Thankfully the cache and contents were in good condition. After signing the log, we replaced the cache in a hide very close to where it was found. Thanks Gold Nugget 77 for the cache.
I found this cache whilst in (or on my way home from) the upper South East for the June Long Weekend cache event.
I had a fantastic time and really enjoyed the variety of caches found during the longweekend. TFTC.

No banana for us today.
We think we had the right tree, but searched a few others also.

#9 of 9 caches found today. We are camped nearby for the evening and had set out to grab a couple of caches but just couldn't stoop at that and soon found myself heading towards this one. A quick find thanks Gold Nugget 77. Very interesting location. Signed log as SG and returned cache. TFTC
Out with CPWanderer & Bindi the dog driving to Padthway via the scenic route.
After a bit of digging around, CP came up with the goods.
An interesting piece of indigenous culture which I wasn't aware of.

Easy find but not well camo'd. No muggles around though. Plenty of room left in the log. I got a strange feeling from this place as if I wasn't meant to be here. Very sacred site. Thanks for the cache.
Interesting location. Cache was found on the ground. It was pretty windy last night.

Thanks to all the owners of all the caches we found on the Road between Kingston S.E. and Millicent. We were lucky we had beautiful weather and good geocaches. Greetings from Belgium.

The Bunganditj sure did pick a beautiful part of the world to live in.
Found on a short trip south to escape the big smoke before the Xmas rush. Clear skies to Gold Nugget 77 from TeamAstro.

Thank you so much for leading us to this amazing place! Of course we'd never cross the gate but it was great seeing something we never would've known was there otherwise! TFTC!
A quick easy find in the first place I looked
Signed a new replacement log thanks to FelixII

Free camping in Kingston, today we set off to explore the local surrounds.
The wind was starting to pick up in anticipation of the cold front crossing at night. After about 5 caches Mrs Felix called it quits with a head cold.
Mr Felix kept on caching on though and even bumped into KingsQuad and Groovygranny47.
Busy day here in Kingston this weekend.
Popped a new into this cache whilst here.

On our way from Mount Gambier to Victor Harbour for the night we stopped in Kingston for toilet & lunch break. This was a quick & easy find today. TFTC 
This was my first Cache on my second day at Kingston, by following the details given it was easy to locate this Cache. I replaced it as found, a very historical site to mark with a Cache. TFTC.
Found with now-not-so-muggle-friends. No room to sign on the log provided so I added a small receipt from my handbag to allow more lodgings.
Found with Tassie Trekkers on our way to Millicent after attending the Oz Mega. TFTC
Found on our "Making Memories" tour of Mainland Australia.
Today we explored Kingston and Robe on our way to Millicent with whitewebbs.
Many thanks to all cache owners for placing and maintaining caches for our enjoyment.

Found on our layover in Kingston on the way to the Mega from Bendigo. Spotted quickly - glad we werent hanging around too long. The log is pretty full. TFTC
After sorting out some final business for the mega event we headed home via Portland to catch up with Dad for a few days and grabbing some caches along the way.
We pulled up near gz and we couldn't help but think what this land must have looked like back when the Bunganditj roamed freely around it before white man changed it forever.
The cache itself was a nice easy find but for some reason it took us two laps before we found it, after adding our name to the log we headed back to the car wondering how many are buried here.
Thanks for the cache.

Headed out with Nibs for the Australia Day long weekend to drive from Mt Gambier to Salt Creek along as many of the 4WD tracks along the coast as we could.
Three nights of camping along the coast in what turned out to be a very hot weekend.
Started out at Carpenters Rocks and worked out way down.
We camped the first night on the Admella Flats, the second night near 3 Mile Rocks on the other side of Beachport and on our third night between 32 and 42 mile crossing on the Coorong.
It really got busy in Little Dip park near Robe on Australia Day as there were several large 4WD clubs in the park.
As usual the Pathfinder went a treat and we had a ball.
There was only one sand hill climb that gave us any grief but the third time was a charm and I got over.
When you have been a student of the Beaker school of driving anything is possible.
If I had of got stuck it would have been OK as Nibs would have rescued me. We helped out a lot of people over the weekend and once he sets his mind to getting you out there is no stopping him.
We spent about 2 hours at one spot trying to pull a bloke out from just above the highwater mark before the Nissan Club rolled up and literally built a road out of maxtracks.
It was an great weekend and Mrs Parrot and I loved it.
My those co-ords are out a little bit. Glad I had the notes for this one
