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

Hi there Earthly, there seems to be a few DNFs stacking up on this one, could you please check on it or send me to its exact location (possibly with a picture), as Im often in the area and would be able to confirm if its still there. Thanks Chippymick

Not for us today… Had a pretty good look but no luck.
 
13-May-23
No luck today….. we had a good look, but there are plenty of caches in front of us today…
20 reported DNFs and 70 finds.... This one probably deserves more than a D2, or a good hint.

Good hide took a minute
 
31-Mar-21
Came along with ilook4geo after an appointment in Moonee. The co-ords here were very good, but it was not until something was moved that the other team spotted the container. It was a simple but effective hide. Many thanks go to earthly65 and robbieracer66 for placing this cache.
 
31-Mar-21

12-Aug-20
Sadly. Have not cached for some months now and on holidays in this area and this mature aged lady must have lost her grossness. Spent some time and all the obvious place did not tried anything.
TFTC anyway.
 
28-Jun-20
Great spot, tricky but didn’t take too long!
 
27-Jun-20
T’would be easier if it were orange

Had us searching for awhile but a find was made. TFTC
 
26-Jun-20
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.

Had us searching for a while before spotting it. A FP given.
 
26-Jun-20
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

Nice one. Took a little while but a systematic search had me signing the log soon enough. Tftc now it's time to find some lunch .

TFTC, 3rd time lucky and only found with a hint from a prev finder, I can't believe I did'nt see it the last 2 times.
 
09-May-17
The log roll is in tatters and in poor condition.
 
07-May-17
Needs some kind of clue
 
02-May-17
Found with cousin Temingi on a caching adventure around Coffs area. TFTC
 
20-Apr-17
Another frustrating 20 min search for no find. GPS had me going around in circles, a hint is needed. I noticed the C.O did a recent maintenance run in the area but nothing noted about this one.
 
09-Mar-17
Gave this a good search for no luck, to good for me today.
 
08-Jan-17
Can't believe I found this one as quick asI did. Log needs maintenance
 
03-Sep-16
You Sir, are one sneaky cache stasher.
 
21-Aug-16
To hard this one
 
08-May-16
Well this one certainly had us stumped for quite some time.

We walked around and around looking here and looking there.

You can certainly see where cachers have been - lots of disturbed logs and ground.

Mrs Staybe called it quits first, then Ozglory fell too. But Mr Staybe was determined to make the find and yep he sure did!

Clever hide, not sure how it could have ever been muggled :O

Thanks for placing this cache, off to your next one.

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. actually it was mr staybe who found this one whilst i was sulking over in the car. not sure why but my gps doesn't like this area at all. it had me 30 m away whilst 2 phones were pretty good.
 
01-May-16
Could not find it anywhere in the bushes!
 
27-Feb-16
TFTC!! amazing idea
 
20-Feb-16
Went back again today to try and find this one. This time had a hint from the CO, I don't think that we would have found it without the hint. This certainly was tricky for us.

TFTC
 
08-Jan-16
New cache waiting to be found.
 
08-Jan-16
Another cache muggled...groan...anyhoo...new cache in place....happy caching!Smile

02-Jan-16
Frustrating couldn't find this either Sad
 
13-Dec-15
Thought I'd have another go
But my efforts have uncovered no
Geocache anywhere here
And yet I know it's very near.
Alas this one will have to be
Another DNF for me.
 
08-Dec-15
Unfortunately wasn't able to find this one. My Gps indicated distance of 0 m, but in spite of my searching couldn't find it. Thanks anyway. On holidays at Moonee Beach - nice little circuit of Old Bucca and Bucca Roads on my push bike this afternoon. Picked up 3 (out of 5) caches.
 
21-Oct-15
Hint would be good if its still there
 
13-Jun-15
quick find here tftc
 
13-Jun-15
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.

Tricky tricky.

First find of the day
 
13-May-15
Oh this duo of cache hiders are messing with me head again !! [:o]
I wandered around here for a good 15 minutes .... ignoring what should have been a big "HERE IT IS" !! Red Face
A visit back to the geomobile for another read of the cache notes and a sip of fizzy cola was needed Razz

And back at GZ, I finally woke up and investigated the odd thingy that I had been ignoring for too long and found the cache Smile
Good old fizzy cola Big Grin
Works every time [^]

TFTC ...
 
09-May-15
Sneaky little hide. We almost gave up hope until the other half spotted this one. liked this one
 
25-Apr-15
Checked on this cache as we were on a maintenance run in the area....cache is in placeSmile
 
30-Mar-15
Had a bit of a look around various spots here, but nothing I could see that might have been a cache or a suitable hiding spot. Hopefully it is still here as I seem to have trouble with some of your hides. Not that there is any real reason to visit apart from the cache. Thanks earthly65 and Robbieracer66.
 
30-Dec-14
Nice quick park and grab. TFTC
 
16-Nov-14
Took a while, I'm not sure it's in its original position, TFTC earthly65!!

Gotta nice one

Teamdfl and I are heading south to the Port Macquarie region for a 4 day week-end of caching. Cool
After starting the day at Corindi Beach we are slowing making our way south finding caches every 10km from home for a challenge cache. Razz
Unfortunately we could not find the cache just down the road so we made our way up to this one.
A very short search and this one was spotted.
Thanks for the cache.
 
17-Oct-14
Heading south for a few days with Brother Colin. We have a few missions planned to complete some "Challenge" caches.

We had stopped over night at Corindi Beach and we were now starting the first mission - to complete the "Well Traveled Cacher Challenge". Today was all about heading south and finding a cache in every 10km band.

With a fail just up the road we were hoping for a find here. We pulled up and began to hunt. The GPSr was pointing to a pretty vague area. A short search soon revealed the cache though.

One down. 26 to go. Big Grin
