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.

This location is now been cleared for a housing development. Cache if still there is now inaccessible
I replaced the paper and left a pencil next to the container - but I don’t think the rock will be in place much longer because they have just ripped the surrounding trees down.
Needs maintenance- the paper is wet.
Was fun, but don’t go if you want want really tall grass and white fluffy plants all over you!
This was our most challenging cache, wasn’t hard to find once we found the rock, but it was a journey getting there!!

Found with shaneo58 in the second half of winter, getting up near the 20's deg, and only needed a shirt most of the day. This was a quick find after 'road to nowhere, did not see any snakes or even hear any. This is the 3rd cache of 10 for today. Log signed and caches replaced as found. Thanks For The Cache MadRoosterMan

Definitely not one for a family of geocachers, pretty dangerous with heaps of long grass and a few snakes
After a trek through the long grass, nearly breaking an ankle, i found gz, then the rock that other logs mention. Not real sure why this is here, the cache, not the rock.. Neighbor took quite an interest, but did not say anything. Circumnavigated gz, hoping not to find a sleeping snake, and finally found the cache buried. Seems like something may have moved in to the hidey hole, as there is fresh digging and thats what buried the container i think. Log is unusable, as others have mentioned. Will be posting a needs maintenance. As i did not have my cache bag with me, I left an eftpos receipt with date and name on it in the little baggie.
Found with Beary_Unicorns on a very hot Saturday afternoon. We made a visit to the Central Coast to find a few geocaches. Beautiful area, love it down here. Visited trackables, tftc
Wet and marshy but was fun to see a few odd things around as if someone was living around 
We got about 10 meters in and saw a huge brown snake so we turned back
Had my kids with me wouldn’t recommend others taking kids.

I had to wait a while for the muggle school boys to walk past but once I did it was a pretty easy find. The log inside needs replacing as it is very old, full and starting to deteriorate, so if the next person that finds it could add some new paper in there it would be greatly appreciated.
Found it with (magicbeastplays1). Log needs maintenance a bit soggy and about to run out of room
Found it again with B_hallows again very hard catch in the grass indeed B_hallows and me are pretty good at finding these catches each day
Didn't know that place existed. Someone has being sleeping around. Nice view of the vegetation.
Thanks MadRoosterMan! Someone was watching me, but wasn't mad.. (see pic). The guardian?

Wore my boots thankfully as it had been raining and the grass was long. TFTH in the middle of a paddock. SL.
This one was an interesting walk through long grass. After checking all the obvious rocks we found what we were looking for.
#4010 (15 of 15 today)
It's milestone time again, but my target has flown the coup. Almost 90 minutes away, I'll need to be quick - and lucky.
And I still have 4 finds to make first. Luckily there are 4 other caches nearby...
Managed to get 15 for the day including my milestone target - best make the day worthwhile after the long drive - and 14 other caches besides.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Final find of the day.
Went around in circles a bit getting to GZ on this one. Finally got there via some long grass and spotted a likely hide. The cache wasn't overly obvious but a closer investigation uncovered it.
Completed signing duties and replaced. Took the shorter way back to *The Hademobile* and now it's time to head home - via one last stop to place *Traffic Control #3*.

We probably should have taken the path that didn't lead through the long paspalum! Log is a bit flaky having been wet at some point. TFTC.
Nicely hidden cache log was slightly wet back still useful all in all simple and fun.
Found with my two sons on a long morning out geocaching. As I had both of them, we targeted the easier 1.5/1.5 caches which I had been avoiding. After starting with our only DNF we ended up with nine finds, only two of which were not the usual culprits.
We had some fun here on this quiet round about, where we went around a few more times then we needed to. I think the Terrain rating is a bit underrated, but diffeculty is about right as my eldest found it before me.
Thanks for the circles, walk and cache!

Back to the Central Coast today, our main objective a local EarthCache, but we circled it first grabbing some local caches on the way in. 8 for the day with 4 DNFs, some more disappointing than others.... We have unfinished business down here, so will pick up some stragglers another day hopefully.
Quick one here, gee there are a lot of unfinished roads down here! Pretty damp log sheet here, container needs upgrading MadRoosterMan, TFTC.

We came to Warnervale for the wetlands earthcache today, we did others around it.. TFTC!!
On our way from Sydney for a getaway over the long weekend, we stopped at this cache for a rest and a search. Searched once in all possible hidey holes. Then searched again, and there it was, hiding.
Log signed and back on the way towards Tuggerah Lake.
