The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am 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 page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

With school holidays upon us I chose to take the kids riding around this area to find a cache or two! After packing up our bikes we made our way here for a picnic lunch before finding the cache Smile

Thanks JD2003 Big Grin Cache was a quick find... If only it was that quick to get the kids off the playground Wink

Headed up NOR today with Jinta29 with the prinary goal of collecting as many of our solved puzzles as we could.

One of the traditionals we decided to detour for. Lucky I read the hint or one of us probably would have wasted some time. Smile

02-Jan-15
Kyzabra and I had a mission to make a foray into this part of town with the main aim of grabbing solved puzzles and multis. Of course there would be the odd traditional thrown in for good measure.

A nice quick find here after adjusting our elevation Big Grin

So many cobwebs.... Those spiders really love Dexter. No probs though - just dusted them off and signed the log. Cheers

Found Dexter all right but he's jammed in tight. Couldn't sign the log.

Neat little hide. I was stalled by a muggle asking me for a quote as I parked work car infront of gz. TFTC

Took me more time than it should have one this one...instinct took logic down the wrong path!

Took a photograph. Left a footprint Smile

Found container but no log & I had no paper to put inside
 
05-Jul-14
Found an empty very small container however no log inside.

Cache is missing from original hiding spot. CO doesn't seem to have logged on since their initial couple of weeks of caching. A temporary replacement has been placed in an equally as sneaky spot in the tree.
 
13-Jun-14
No luck here for me. Looked high and low.
After reading the first half of the hint I even climbed up the tree... Then read the second part on the top and climbed down...
Maybe would worth a check.
 
29-May-14
Quick find once at GZ just on dusk. Easily spotted as the covering that used to cover the cache was on the ground. Replace as best I could so hopefully will stay well hidden. TFTC.

Barnzey12 found within 10sec in a circuit of inglewood and surrounding area.

Love Paul Frank!!
My kids call him monkey man cos he looks like the offspring of a human and a monkey!!
Thanks for cache
 
21-May-14
Fun for the kids! Thankyou though we saw it from a few metres away as the camouflage is in pieces and the box is so bright. Swapped some loot .thankyou
 
12-May-14
After DNFing on this cache when trying for FTF I had been watching it since then, and saw the coordinate change. Today I had the chance to come back and fix up that frowny face. It still took a bit of searching!

The camo fell to pieces when I touched it, and I tried to put it back together as best as possible, but it may need some fixing/glue-ing.

Thanks for the cache JD2003!

Another one by wifey. She is becoming the park n grab queen! Great hide!

Out on a day of caching with skippy 46. We had quite a successful day with 23 finds in about 5 hours and most caches were found quite quickly. We used ChrisRG co-ords but it still took a few minutes of searching to find the cute monkey tin TFTC JD2003
 
15-Feb-14
Thought it had been muggled at first and was just about to give up when I found it.

Loved the container and I think you did a great job on your first cache. Smile

I read the logs last night and saw that the coords were a bit out so I avoided the obvious place and moved to the next obvious one. It was a quick find as the geocache was lying open on the ground with the contents scattered. I don't think anything has gone missing, log book and pen are still there along with a small eraser. I signed the log and put it all back together (I like the tin) and put it back where I think it may have been originally. It may pay to keep an eye on this one in case it gets muggled again.
My Coords for the cache were S31 54.622 E115 52.662

Coordinates need to be updated.
 
01-Feb-14
I found this cache on the weekend but have been holding off logging the find until I could provide a suggested coordinate. When I archived a nearby cache, I hid a bison high in the exact tree you have hidden in. My coordinate was very similar to that suggested in ChrisRG's log. I logged your cute monkey tin and removed my bison in the same visit. Great to have another cache so close to home. Thanks for the hide JD2003.

Another day out with Mistraluna and the Better Half caching.

Found the cache without problems once we read the listing and worked out where GZ was supposed to be.

Thanks JD2003 for the cache.
 
01-Feb-14
The coordinates need to be updated to be correct.

Another epic day of caching, continuing on from where I left off last weekend. The cache wasn't found at the listed coordinates, instead we read previous logs and searched some distance away. Sneaky hide. Thanks JD2003

First not to find Sad

My GPS directed me to the large tree in the center of the park, by the bench seat. I searched high and low, but didn't find the tin.

I was carefully watched by 7 magpies, so maybe they have snaffled the cache as a prize for their nest...

*FTF* at 7.40pm. Cute container - we have one of these caches ourselves! I found the coords to be approx. 15m out and suggest CO recalculate these. My GPS suggested GZ was at S 31 54.618 E 115 52.659. TFTC Very Happy
