Hi there samsmith1993,
Your cache "Hedgehog" was last found on 21/06/2015, 51 days ago, and has had 6 DNF's since that time..
Is there any chance you could do a maintenance run to confirm if it is still there - - and replace it if it isn't.
If that's not possible then please archive the cache so that the spot can be freed up for someone else to use.
Regards
Ian & Penny

Purpledarkness didn't have their caching mojo going on when they got here.
Between a long drive, wet weather, a gardening muggle, 4 inches of wet leaves and Purple's new pants there really was no hope.
Not really a fan of scratching about in an actual garden so uncharacteristically for us we threw in the towel early.
May return, may not.
TFTH.

Not many muggles around. I had a good look and dig around, but could not find the cache.
Felt too conspicuous amidst all the muggles to really search properly today. Geokids tried a tree climbing decoy whilst I tried to dig around but this only created more interest from the sun baking couple nearby. So.... we left it, not wanting to give the game away and to think this was supposed to be easy . We will return.
What a lovely park! No muggles around at lunchtime during the week, males digging around easy Tftc
Managed to catch an earlier plane than originally planned so we had a bit of time to kill before we needed to head off. This was our chosen cache.
A rather quick find thanks to the good clue.
What a lovely park.
Thanks samsmith1993.

The park was full of families but there was a way to GZ that seemed to offer some cover.
A quick sign of the log and I was off home.

Thank you for the teeny baby bottle! We loved the geocache. Happy cache-ing everyone
I was prevented from searching here once before, and then I ignored the spot because I wanted my Terrain average to stay high, but today it was a whole new post-Mega ballgame.
I made the find by heading straight to what seemed the most likely spot: it's nice when that happens. I then left just as a BCC team arrived to do more trimming. All good here so TFTC!

Quick and easy find ... lots of muggles around!!! Mozzies are everywhere #3 cache located!!!
Found it!! Was wet and not able to log on the paper. We added a waterproof plastic bag and new log sheet. BYOP
Our first night cache! On our way home from dinner decided to do a spot of geocaching. Thank goodness for torch apps! Couldn't sign the log as its too damp. Good little hiding spot. Tftc
[Blue]This cache was found at around 19:07 and brings our overall cache find tally to 8604.
While waiting for the other Gangsters to fly in I had a crack at finding this one and succeeded. Lots of mozzies and the log was soaking wet!
Thanks samsmith1993 for the cache. [/Blue]

Out this way after work. Parked nearby and strolled over to the obvious feature. A quick search revealed the cache. The log was very WET. Luckily, I had my wonderful write anywhere pen with me to sign the log.
Lovely little Park for our first "SUCCESSFUL" night cache. Lowg is absolutely saturated after all the heavy rain. Found at 9.10pm on 21st Feb 2015. TFTC.
A late night pick up at the airport so it meant for a late night cache pick up too. The phone GPS was a little bouncy and wondered about the clue, but then I decided to follow my instinct and soon spotted the hidey hole. TFTC samsmtih 1993
Find #1379 at 17:17. Coords a few metres out but the hint helps.
As previous finders have mentioned, the log is wet pulp and really needs to be replaced, along with a baggy and maybe a container upgrade.
The mozzies are pretty fierce here, too.

A nice easy find as Mrs Gunnie and I made our way home this afternoon, but I struggled to etch my name on the very wet log. These containers don't keep the water out very well so in its lair, it would be swimming quite regularly at the moment.
A nice area for a cache and tucked nicely out of the way of the playground which is handy.
Cheers samsmith1993.

Log is saturated. I wrote my name on a new piece of paper but had no zip lock bag so I'm assuming my new paper will get wet as well.

Log was saturated.
I put in a new piece of paper but I had no bag so if anyone coming this way for a find could help with a bag for the log that would be great.

Out collecting a few caches on the way to work. Nice little park and a find soon in hand. Unfortunately the log is a little wet.
A quick visit to this cache on our way home from the Event 12-13-14 Multi Event in Brisbane Botanical Gardens. A nice walk in the park and geopartner came up with the cache.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks samsmith1993 All good with this cache

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Jinga2 at 11:50am. Nobody watching us as we sneaked in to GZ and signed the log. TFTC
I pulled up close to the area and found a muggle family on the swings. I noted that the GPS was pointing away from them and headed that way. Now I found there was a council truck parked on the road and the driver did not look to be moving for some time.
I wandered around talking on the phone while I looked at a few places but I could not do a full search with the muggle so close.
There are a lot of leaves that the cache could be hidden under. I will return again.

Nice easy park and grab on a lazy Sunday afternoon drive...left some american coin... tftc...
It was nice to get to the park. I have been doing a 'steps' challenge with work. The idea is to take a crazy number of steps before Christmas. This morning's walk took my to the Hedgehog, and even though it was still early I was hot by the time I got there so it was nice to be able to take a drink and sit in the shade a while.
There were a couple of kiddles on the play equipment, so I timed my sweep for when mum was looking the other way and made a quick grab. A quick sign up back at the bench before waiting for another break to return the cache and walk on to work.
Thanks for the cache and for showing me this lovely park guys!

DNS: muggles. A student-free day was not the right time to come, but even so, there was a very large number of park users all over the place. Another time for me.
*FTF*
Got home after a big day at the food markets, visiting with family and of course finding a few caches along the way. Scrolling through FB and I noticed someone else had mentioned new caches had been published, and checked my emails.... 5 new caches!! This one was the closest (and of course, pretty close to where we had spent most of the day!) so we jumped back in the car and took off!
Arrived a GZ and there were a few people enjoying a lovely evening in the park, but they paid us no mind as we went in for the cache. Retrieved log and was confused by two signatures already on the log from the 16th of October, but on closer inspection noticed it was from the CO's.
A great way to finish my weekend! TFTC!
