We couldn't find this one today. From log images we figured out where it should be, but turned up nothing.
We knew we wouldn’t be looking for an ordinary cache, and when nothing materialised we had to call this one a DNF sadly.
We found this on the way home after a long weekend at the Central Coast. Really cool cache. TFTC.

On the way home from a long weekend at the Central Coast, this cache was on our route due to some confusion with the car's satnav. After a quick find of the very cool cache, we were on our way again. TFTC!
We were following the sat nav, only realise it was taking us a route affected by snow conditions which we were planning to avoid. A small detour had us back on track and seeing as we were likely not to be in this neck of the woods again, we decided to stop for a cache. Fun cache! Thank you.
Will that Coyote ever give up! Love the cache. Left a TB. TFTC! FP awarded from GeoJess
Love the creative container! Lol Wish I didn't open the photo in the previous activity though
One of the most creative caches we have done. Loved the container. Thanks for your creativity.
Found with Shaneo58 on a nice day in early winter, with temperatures in the lmid 20s. On the way to the wine country, made a nice quick find, loving the theme, fave piont. Log signed and caches replaced as found. Thanks For The Cache TeamSenz

Last cache of a nature -packed weekend at Frying pan.
Heading home, much to relief of geodog, we found this gem.
Having grown up on Road-Runner and Coyote when we finally got a TV (yes there was a time it didn't exist in every home!) I loved this one.
Thanks and a fav from me

Another senzational cache! I'd had this on the to-do list for a very long time but had never gotten close to it until today. The area was deserted, except for some sort of vet guy who was releasing snakes or possums. We found the cache and noticed the log had had some (muggle?) finds since the last online log. All's ok with it but we were careful to avoid naked flames. Thanks TeamSenz.
Absolutely one of my favourite caches! Did it in the rain and it added an extra layer of ambience and mystery to it TFTC! ^.^

First cache of the day on the way to Cessnock. So creative-it deserves a Favi Greetings from Germany, tftc
It's been close to 18 months since I had been home last so with the geoson in town and aussieben driving we hit the road.
Geo 4 year old loved this one. Fp awarded thanks TeamSenz for great creativity.

Out with Snakepiters to find this cache. Happily we were able to find gz and claim our prize. We are enjoying our time using Kurri Kurri sports club camp as our base. Thanks to TeamSenz for hiding this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.
We have set up camp at the Kurri Kurri sports club.
Todays trip was a few random caches, along with stops at a couple of bikes shops.
A variety of cache types & hides found. I was looking for the road runner who did not make an appearance. Loved the whole set up a FP given.
Thanks for placing this cache TeamSenz

After a day out with Shaneo58 and Grub Fred caching and lunch at the Wollombi Tavern we were heading home and as I had a DNF last time I tackled this one decided to take them in to help look for it this time. Well a blind bloke with a blind guide dog could have found it and it was in exactly the place I looked last time, you couldn't miss it if you tried. Anyhow they got a laugh and I got another smiley so thanks TeamSenz for another fine cache. Gotta be worth a smiley after all that.
Find No: 6803. Took a day trip with YellaBelly and shaneo58, had a great lunch at Wollombi Tavern, gets a favorite, thanks for the cache TeamSenz!!
Plenty of parking here with no traffic at all. I walked in through the light bush and soon found where to look. What great camo, although it would be like a red flag to any cacher. Thanks TeamSenz for a good hide in the bush, I like your style in designing containers too, good fun!
Around the area for the Oz geomuster and grabbing some caches in the area. Very creative hide. Love it. Thanks for the cache TeamSenz
Despite some GPS woes, we soon had this dangerous cache in hand! Beep Beep!
Thanks for the cache TeamSenz!

On our way home from finding some of the OZGM mysteries. Last find of the day.
Not too bad a walk from the car, had to jump across a bit of water due to all the recent rain. Found cache quickly and SL.
What a unique container! T4TC!

Beep! Beep! Lots of work going on at the road today. Graders and trucks moving stuff around. But away from prying eyes I managed a quick find. Found log on 2nd go. Found TB on 1st go. Took TB. Good camo too. FP awarded. TFTC
Great cache container. Worth a fav point for effort put into container scorcher of a day today but worth the walk in the heat TFTCSL
Nice one!! Once again a fantastic imaginative cache. Worth a drive out with the learner driver. Fav point from me.
Took advantage of a fine sunny day to grab a few in this area. A short walk from the road and we had the cache. Had no trouble getting the lids off. Found a nice, big, actual, log book. Took a moment to read through some of the logs. SL then replaced cache. There was a large piece of what looked like a cache hide cover lying on the ground. Was this supposed to be some form of concealment/ Anyhow we placed it the way we thought it should go so that any wandering muggles wont see the cache. Thanks TeanSenz.
Didn't have time for the nearby mystery as we had an appointment in town so will have to come back for that.

With the day begging perfect for getting out and about exploring, we took the kids out to find a few caches that had been on my to do list for far too long. Ever since this one has been published I had been keen to check it out, so at last I could. Whilst the kids didn't quite understand what they were looking at, they loved the container anyway just because it was different. We did find getting the lid off the cache difficult, and had to resort to some macguyver tactics to get it off. The cache is slightly looking a little worse for wear so may need some TLC.
Gratias Team Senz.

Found what I thought would be the place for a cache but couldn't find anything.
Will have to give it another go later, but thanks anyhow.

TFTC, stood out once we got there(no real camoflauge we could see). Had a bit of trouble getting it open so we left it rather than accidentaly breaking it.
Very creatice/memorable.

I knew what this one looked like
But Little Scooby Doo didn't
So i gave him some clues to help him find it and we looked and looked as a teenager would say
" Boom" it just appeared.

Great morning caching with the family. Found this one this morning. Signed log. Took stamp, left matchbox car, some yoga car stickers and left a name tag.
TFTC awesome effort.

Found at 1124. A quick easy find as I found I started looking for a coyote which could have been near by. TFTC.
Loved the container - a lonely spot. Found it out in the open but have replaced in tree with covering - maybe animals moved the covering - the lid was set by wasp nest - 2 months since last visit - give a fav for this.

I was out for a treasure hunt with my Poppy, Calypso62. I love it when he comes to visit and we can go looking for treasure. Poppy decided this one would be a good one for us to find. We parked up the road a bit and walked along then followed a bit of a trail to GZ. Poppy had a really good laugh when he saw the cache. He explained to me all about the Road Runner and the Coyote. Thank you TeamSenz for allowing me to log this find. It was great fun.

I was out with my granddaughter, Possum Blossom, for a short caching run and this was our first for the afternoon. I drove down the main drag before realising there was another way to reach GZ. A short bit of bush bashing soon had us at GZ. I did wonder about the name of this cache. Needless to say I had a big smile on my face when the cache was found. Well done TeamSenz. Adding my favourite point to the list. Thanks for adding to my global geocaching experiences. Cheers

A quick park and grab on our last day of caching in the Hunter Valley and surrounds before we head home. Another glorious sunny day too. TNLN SL TFTC
A nice drive down a well graded dirt road. A nice short walk in the bush. Then an awesome Camo. Thanks for your creativity TeamSenz, this cache gives more bang for your buck than most that I have found. Definitely a Fav Point. TFTC TeamSenz
Found in the company of pprass
WOW this cache was pretty cool- I'm glad it had multiple labels saying 'Geocache' on it cause some muggles would get suspicious ha- I tried to open the container but it was put together so tight i couldnt do it, Peter opened it straight away. TFTC TeamSnez

Found at 11:47 AM GAFF1 in the company of Team Nurse Hayley.
I think it is a fantastic set up, but imagine if a muggle stumbled over it. Boy would we hear about it [B)]
We actually had a bit of trouble opening it - well Hayley actually had a bit of trouble opening it It was then passed onto me so I turned it upside down thinking if she couldn't open it from the end that she was trying to open it from, then it was to be opened from the other end. Well - I nearly ripped my wrist off trying to budge the glued end [xx(] I then turned it over and managed to open it with a bit of effort.
Thanks TeamSenz.

Out and about for a day caching in the region.
I had found the nearby puzzle cache, so I might as find this one as I am driving past.
I did not expect that. Awesome container. A fav point from me. [^]
A quick find.
Thanks for he cache.

Searched for an hour but GPS was all over the place. After being scared by a roo that came out of nowhere and a red belly sunning itself by the water I decided I'd had enough:( I would say terrain is more like a 2.5 too. I'll come back some other time as it sounds like a great cache.
After our 2km trek in the bush for some nearby mystery caches, a park and grab was in order.....
A fun find, thanks - dropped off a trackable to continue its journey....

Geez the mozzies here are beyond ridiculous!!! If only the cache was real i would have used it to blast every mosquito into non existence.
But a really clever cache made the attack worth while.

On our way through the Hunter finding some golden cache nominees. Found with TsyeymToronyu. Quick walk through the mud and we located the cache quickly, took some photos and signed log. T4TC
Headed up the M1 with Mumma-Kel again this morning to check out some of the COTY nominated caches in the Maitland area. This one was a pretty straightforward find and as novel as the container is, I came away from it wondering whether, in this day and age, it's an appropriate one ... or indeed, whether it complies with Groundspeak guidelines. Good, though, that there's little chance of any muggles coming across it! Thanks for the cache and for the smiley TeamSenz.
After doing as nearby monkeys do, Opa-Shrek and
I continued into this cache - I'd heard murmmerings about thus one on the cache-vine, and had a fair idea what to expect based on the name anyway.... And at GZ what I expected was exactly what we found. Well, except the barrel load of pencils. I didn't expect that - normally you're hard pressed to find one in a cache, lol! Another fun cache TeamSenz, thanks!
PS...the drawing in the logbook, it's supposed to be the roadrunner. My apologies to the actual cartoonist. Meep-Meep!

Had to get the trusty gps out to find this one as the phone was lost. Cool cache and appropriate for my line of work. TFTC.
#8 of a day out into HAVOC land with the DOC, searching for COTY nominees and other worthy caches in the area.
Being high on the DOCs hitlist, I hoped that this would provide a little more BANG than the last ones had! And it certainly did! (well in some aspects!) Great craftsmanship, something a little new and different. TFTC!!!!

Dropped in to do this geocache on my down to attend the Melbourne MEGA Event.
Woohoo, loved this container. Being a huge fan of ACME, and devout customer of course. Oh how many contraptions have I myself built, along with Wile-E-Coyote, trying to catch that Road-Runner!
