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 30 days so I don't archive the listing for non-communication.

Out with mrwhiskers76 today. About to head out for lunch and stopped by this one on the way. The weathers fairly miserable so there’s little to no muggles around except for the few passer byes in their cars. This one took a little while to find as it was definitely well hidden. The magnetic strip didn’t appear to be on the cache container. The log was still very dry. Thank you for a sneaky hide!

We parked on the low side of the road and a resident arrived just after us and appeared not to be very happy with us as we had parked near his driveway and he wanted to back down it but we made it difficult for him to position himself to make it easy. We could wee that he was expressing his displeasure to the Mrs sitting next to him. The cache was another very quick find for Mrs Shifter. No ants in the cache, but it was a little difficult to open.
Thanks for the hide JSB001.

**The Cache**
I initially had the wrong cache page open duuhhh and went down the walkway and then came back up later to see he builders busy doing their thing - they weren't paying attention ... phewww ... that made my task easier. SL and returned cache to its hide'y hole. Lovely location. OCW *Little Kitten* and *DustyJapserJet*.

Great cache!

Started looking in the obvious place as phone was a little jumpy and builders close by were keeping an eye on me, soon found out that the obvious place isn’t always the best. So I started walking along and soon enough the cache was in sight as soon as I grabbed it a resident popped up beside me and asked if I was ok. I quickly explained I was with the SES and we were there recently and a member had lost a multi tool and I was hoping to find in. Lovely person offered to help and went off in the opposite direct, I slowly signed and replaced the log and thanked the resident and explained we’d probably be there all day looking.

I was in Wollongong for some family commitments. After dropping off youngest at a friends house, I had two hours to do a bit of caching. I had fun, but did miss my wingman Finalf29. I found four and the numbers I needed to solve another.

This was my second for the morning. Thank goodness it wasn't where that great big spider was... OK my fear of spiders has improved, but seriously that was one HUGE! Little traffic out today, so easily retrieved. Thanks

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 1st of 22 finds.
The neighbourhood dog across the road started getting antsy about my presence. Happily found quickly before the rest of the neighbourhood heard the alarm-dog.

Did a quick detour after dropping off a friend/carpool buddy nearby in my attempts to get to 200 caches by my 1 year geocaching anniversary. I parked on the bottom road and walked up. Had a little gps bouncing happening, but had CIH before too long. "Easy one!" I thought. Nope!! That's when hordes of ants started to pour out of the tin! They've laid some eggs in there. After some waiting and some shaking them off, I got the tin opened and the log out and signed. Recommend CO or next cacher brings some bug spray though!!!
