Hi earthly65,The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention, or it may not but in the absence of the cache owner performing maintenance and/or disabling the cache to check it out, 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 4 weeks) 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 4 weeks 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.Ngaambul - Matt

Like everyone else lately I didnt have any luck here.

Didnt find this one today my husband even lifted part of the fallen stump but no luck unfortunately

No luck today. TFTC.

Could not retrieve

We are now heading north to avoid the coldest of the winter weather in Victoria. Headed of from Coffs towards Grafton.

Stopped off here where the container was found after a short search, once at GZ.

Thanks earthly65 for placing this cache and doing the maintenance, so we can enjoy finding it.

This little road was hard to spot on our approach, another quick stop.
Thanks for the cache

Happy Father’s Day!!
On our way out to Idle Inn at Nana Glen and got this little beauty on the way!

Found it with lil Isla

It was another shorter rune today as we headed back out into the hills to complete the WoopiBucca trail and then onto Emerald Beach for the Ad Lab there and then a few further caches on the way home.
Great weather and another good day. We enjoyed the bush drive and then the sights along the coast were magnificent.

Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache earthly65.

Thanks Earthly65 this one took me a few visits but a lovely spot I am glad you bought me here.

Cool stump

Thanks for the find!

May have been muggled

Not muggles...we were there checking on this cache just yesterday...cache is in place...rock cache!

Checked in here after 2 dnf's...cache was there...have gone thru a few lizard caches here so replaced last time with a rock cache which we hoped wouldnt be spotted by muggles...so far so good...happy caching!

Sadly. Miss one find one this is a miss. Where my found took me no luck. Look in what I thought were obvious place and no luck, geosences must be off but not completely as I was quite drawn to the dead kangaroo. Lol.
TFTC.

Quick find. TFTC

Our group DRJ (DiamonJs, Richond Lad and joojoo57) had these caches west of Woolgoolga on our list today. Completed the new series as well as some other cachers close by. Thanks to the COs for your time and effort in placing and maintaining these caches for our enjoyment to find. It is very much appreciated.

Out and about caching today caching near Woolgoolga and area west doing a trail of caches and other caches along country roads. To the CO's thank you for placing these caches for them to be found (sorry about the generic log ). Most were easy to find, however there were a couple that needed more time to locate. Log signed as DRJ which represents us 3 cachers - DiamonJs, Richmond Lad and joojoo57. Thoroughly enjoyed. TFTC

Tftc with dannielle645

After the trail and before lunch we had some time to get a couple more. Was nearly tricked bit found it eventually. Tftc

Thanks earthly65 and Robbieracer66 for the cache. It’s #1263 for us. We found your cache on 22 February 2020. Quick find.

A nice easy find TFTC

#3626
A nice quick find on my way to Tenterfield via the scenic route. Thanks earthly65.

Travelling south and picking up the odd cache here and there, along with goingplaces2. Put our names on each log found and then everything went back as found. TFTC.

After camping overnight the journey continues with ilook4geo. Some more smilies were added to our map today and each log found was inscribed with two more names. Just picked out a few caches for the day to represent the various places we travelled through. Thanks for this cache placement go to earthly65 and Robbieracer66. We specially targeted this cache as it had not been found in well over a year. So we were very pleased that it had been replaced and was not a hard one to find now.

checked in on this cache today after reported dnf...sadly...not a fire victim...just a mean ole muggling here im afraid...boooo!!..anyhoo..another cache type in place until i can find the makings of the cache we like here...happy caching!

DNF. Evidence of recent fire activity at GZ. Not sure if that's significant.

After having stayed at a camp at Thora for a few days and doing caching around Dorrigo and Bellingen it was time to head further north (as we are on our way home to Qld). We chose minor roads and were rewarded with some excellent creative cache hides. Not always easy to find and it took us a long time to get to our destination of Grafton but we are happy to have travelled the back roads. Fav point alloc. Thanks to earthly65 for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.

TFTC! Found it on a lovely afternoon. The cicadas sure are active around here!

A group assault today soon had this cache found and signed.
TFTC

Easy find today
Tftc

Found it

Not so quick find with the GPS jumping around, but once it settled cache was soon logged and returned TFTC [8d]

Fabulous camo ... I was almost to scared to pick it up!

We're on our way home from the Alice Springs Mega event. Cached all through Victoria, S.Aus, Uluru, Barkly Hway, Qld & now back in our home state NSW ... finding some great camps along the way. Log stamped Coongoola, small logs signed CG.

Thanks for placing this cache earthly65 and Robbieracer66.

Had better luck with this cache than the one further down due to way to many muggle cars passing. Thanks for the easy find earthly65 in this nice area.

Found with cousin Temingi on a caching adventure around Coffs area. TFTC

TFTC, quick park and grab.

On a maintenance run today to make sure all is well for Easter cachers...this one was MIA...temporary cache in place whilst we make a newbie...happy easter caching

Damn did not find this one and after reading comments really wanted to find this cache

Well we had a funny time here at this cache. I was standing at GZ and trying to get geohubby's attention. He was sitting in the geovehicle enjoying the coolness of the a/c. I was chucking sticks, lumps of bark, clods of earth, etc, etc, and hitting the car with them, some of them even on the window beside his head. There was no reaction from him at all. Duh!! The things we have to put up with!! FINALLY, after hitting the car window yet again he was about to get out of the car and to move it because he thought all this stuff was falling out of a tree overhead. (There was no tree overhead). After all that he couldn't find what I needed and I had to retreat to the car myself anyway, lol. I should have just done that in the first place. We loved the cache location, the cache camo, the hide etc, so award this a favourite point. Thanks for the fun earthly65 and robbieracer66

Wonderfully hidden, we enjoyed this one.

May have been there but did not have much time to look. If it had a lizard in the cache it may have been muggled. Not sure.

A cute hide out here, glad we didn't stand on it like some previous cachers - I imagine we would have got a fright too!

TFTC SL TNLN

The sales of these must have soared since caches got onto them. Well suited to the area it lives in good choice. Found with staybe&co. What a beautiful day, we spent it with our family geocaching. It's good when both mums like to cache the day was simply awesome. thank you for placing and maintaining this cache for us to find. tnln sl.

How blind am I? Took me a minute, even I was at the right spot.

Nice container. FP

Thanks for the cache

TFTC Took my poking stick with me to this one and it came on handy, once I knew it was safe I signed the log lol

Found it with the help of the family, even junior was excited about finding this one. Great hiding spot.

TFTC

Found on second attempt

Tftc

Great scare for the night. Loved it.

Again nearly gave up, very inventive capsule nearly didnt even approach it

nice hide this one, second place we looked and geo buddy put his hand on a bud that bite him just as i spotted the cache, log signed tftcsl

Took a road trip with Forbiddenground, travelling from Brissy with 2 specific goals. An Unloved cache past Coffs Harbour and the Hwy park & grabs on the way. A great trip with many great caches along the way. Would like to thank the CO's for placing their hides & keeping the game alive.
Tftc

Great cache, loved it.

Tftc.

With the geomobile settled at the end of Settles, I settled into finding the cache
A likely spot presented itself and I settled into finding a way through the ramparts [:o]
I'm glad I haven't lost me youthful sprightliness

Now where's the cache ??
I gave the likely hiding spots a damn good poking.
Nothing !!

I moved something that was getting in the way of me feet and almost leapt out of GZ
Very funny there 'earthly65' ... yer got me

TFTC and a good chuckle [^]

Very cool hide. When we found it we laughed so much as the other half had been standing on it the whole time we looked. We got a fright when he realized he was standing on something. Tftc and the laugh.

Very clever. A tight squeeze to get in though.
Thanks

Haha, this was a classic.

Intro friends to geocaching with this one

TFTC log to follow.

Oh what a great cache it made us jump!! TFTC

Joint effort with Team Maybery. TFTC. A really good cache spoiled by rubbish left all over the place.

Walked around gz before I realised where it might be. Sure enough the guardian revealed the prize.
Favorite.

Lovely cache earthly65 thankyou

Thanks

This one was searched for for about 5 minutes when I saw it. Didn't scare me as I had read the logs and have seen this done before in a previous cache. TFTC

Love it, gets a favourite, TFTC earthly65!! Mind you, from here on you did my head in! About 7 DNF's in a row!!

Great cache love it! Hot day today but easy find for a quick park n grab. Helped reading past comments for clues. TFTC

Found with brad1987
Thanks for the great hide

Lmao what a great cache

Armed with stick went looking, sent sis in with stick n gotta. We laugh so much thanks for this so much fun

took some time but finally had the cache in hand. TFTC

Gotcha !!! TFTC

Today we travelled from Nana Glen to Moonee Beach, picked up some caches along the country roads.
Really enjoyed this cache, something a little different. Worth a favourite point
Thanks for placing this cache earthly65

Siqest cache in the best spot! With da crewww!

Great but scary find

What a day, we have seen big kangaroos, frightened a goanna up a tree, lizards, skinks & had to give way to a 1.5mts Red bellied snake. SO when we read that this cache needed a long stick & beware of snakes you can imagine how wary we were. But all was fine to an easy find TFTC

Awesome cache and in the obvious and siq spot!

Got a long stick to do the checking for me first,then got serious and retrieved the little critter.TFTC.

Little bit of a scare
