This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.
Had a very good scout around for this, couldn’t find it and resorted to phoning a previous finder who told me where he found it a year ago and it certainly wasn’t there.
Needs a CO check. No finds for 12 plus months and not where a previous finder found it.
Out for a walk in nature today. I had to come to this cache from the one nearby because I couldn't resist. Even though it was fairly hot, the walk was not too strenuous and finding the cache took quite a while. Eventually I trusted the GPS and lo and behold I was right on top of it in the end. Indeed the cache is hidden exactly how you suspect it to be. Thanks for the walk out to this nice spot, it was well worth it.
Out walking in Ellis Brook Conservation park when we skipped over the ridge to try and find this one. No luck this time, but geo-dog enjoyed a quick dip. We will be back with reinforcements.
Out doing some GCA caching and called in to find this cache whilst in the area. Nice area around here.
Cache found without problems. Log signed and cache returned as found.
Thanks MadScouts for the cache.

We chose the wrong path to get to this one and had to walk through the bush for a little while, it wasn't thick bush and quite easy. Found cache after a little while all was well with cache. Found a much easier way back down. Thanks for showing us this area great spot.

Quite a scratchy path but well worth the injuries what a beautiful spot. Miss 9 picked up a tick on the thigh and I got one on my arm and one on my back. tftc

Michael agreed, degrudgingly, to an hour of caching on this glorious afternoon. It was a long drive down to a cluster of 4 caches, one of which was this one. This was by far the lengthiest search, despite the low difficulty rating. Eventually Michael approached from the "right" direction and the cache was spotted. Thanks MadScouts.
For find number 3 of this geocaching run, the lesson is stick to the path... silly me going bush bashing! However on getting to Gz a quick easy find in a pretty spot, wish I had more time in the light to explore more! Next time!!!!
A quick find, but I encountered a large Tiger Snake on the path, about 40 mtrs from the cache, so future hunters should be cautious. It was sunning itself alongside the path and I walked past less than a metre away . The cache was found easily with good coordinates. SL but no swaps today. Thanks to MadScouts for the cache.
I arrived just after 6am and was surprised to find the gates already open but not a single soul around. Absolutely perfect conditions to explore this area that is new to me. So many amazing plants and lots of kangaroos! Not far to walk from the main carpark and we arrive at the dam. Nice little hideaway for the cache. I had the likely hide sussed on arrival and it was right on the money. TNLN SL TFTC MadScouts
Two of us searched for a good 20 minutes without luck, I think the cache is missing. I work at the site so happy to have another look for it if Madscouts can send me a description of where it may be.
Decided today to drag the geodog Charli out for a stroll around the Ellis Brook Reserve and chase down a few caches. Parked near the picnic tables to grab these three.
Took the wrong track initially for this one, found myself heading in the wrong direction and going up a steep hill. I thought the track would double back at some point but it didn't. So I went back down about halfway and ended up bush-bashing my way to GZ. I realise now that if I had gone all the way down things would have been a lot easier.
Because I had come in the wrong way it took a few minutes to negotiate the last ten meters to GZ but once there I had a surprisingly quick find.
I was also surprised to find a blank log book, don't know what the other two finders have signed but it wasn't this log book. Unless of course the CO has replaced it? Have attached a photo.

Took a group of neo-cachers out to find this one and they not only found it but loved the scenary. They had no idea this area existed.
