I think this cach needs to be archived, a call for maintenance has not been addressed by CO and there is quite a few DNFS it's seem to me that the cach is gone.
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.
I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.
Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.
If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.
For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

With all of the recent DNF's, and our check visit back in May, I think it is about time for a CO check on this one.
Had a good look around and unable to locate this one. Judging by recent posts I think it's a goner...
Had a good look, almost fell in the river and banged my head. Still nothing.
Not my mist successful day hunting.

We were driving past the cache location today and decided to stop off to check if it is still there, as the logs show that recent cachers have not been able to find it.
Can confirm that the cache is definitely NOT where we found it previously. Checked all around the correct location, just in case it had suffered from "cache creep", but nothing was found. It looks like this one is gone.

After a week full of work in the office, we needed to get out and get some fresh air. Having noted a number of new caches not too far away, we decided to go for some of them.
We searched and crawled around, scared a few ducks, but the cache didn't show up. We will be back when it has been found by another cacher.

A nice quick but didn't have a pen on us. So we had to walk back to car to god a pencil and then returned to sign log. Tftc
Streak day #114 - after staying dry whilst delivering pizzas in the area it started to rain just as I was getting out of the car to grab my daily cache. Thankfully I had an umbrella. From the carpark it was only a short walk to the GZ and I quickly had CIH. Signed the log then headed back to the dry warm car. Exhausted after a long week and with a weekend is looking even more hectic, I was glad this was a quick cache. Cheers.
Geoson was driving around racking up hours and I asked him to stop by here as this cache was placed on Nov. 28th, missing from my list. While I was under a young family stopped to admire the ducks so I had to stay put!

Found with TimboC but I had to go back to the car for a torch first. We signed and pondered the origin of the unusual container. It was surprising to see all the cricket games midweek in the holidays. Thanks AmJake.
RS climbed underneath as we admired the strange colour of the creek. Haven't seen a container like this before, nice bit of recycling.
The first time I have seen that type of container, I found it and TC did the signing duties.
The ninth of twenty two today. Found with Rainbow Spirit and Martin Cousins.
Rainbow Spirit went under for the find while we admired the smell!?!
No TBs inside.

Took a nice Christmas Eve walk from Queenscliff. What nice parks here. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek
On a walk to pick up my car I stopped in for a pleasant quick grab. The ducks were out to say hello too. Cheers!

had to wait a while for muggles to disperse but found it straight away. geokid #1 reached for the cache and got more than he bargained for in the form of a large huntsman spider. spider retreated and cache signed heartrate back to normal we exited with geokid #2 on muggle watch. saw a scaley local in the process.

Dropped in the travel bug picked up at "Water View" - a must visit for creative camo
Found on a Saturday afternoon caching adventure not too far from home.
Parked in the Nolan Reserve car parking area, off Kentwell Road, and made our way across the bridge over Brookvale Creek, to GZ. Noting the cache name we checked the most obvious location and were rewarded with a quick find. Swapped TB's. TFTC.

5/12/14. 11:05 AM. Cache #2053. Streak day #166. I just had time for a couple of caches this morning, so I thought I'd try for AmJake's new ones on the beaches. After "North Manly the 1st", this was 2nd. I checked the satellite view as I crossed the oval and there was really only one place it could be, given the cache name. Once in place, it was a quick find. The hardest part was getting the log book out with all the swag inside. That and getting the pen back in! Signed as 4TF. I'm not sure what the muggle mums sitting down at the nearby playground would have thought! TFTC }:)
Neat cache and good hide, also well maintained grounds around both sides of bridge, TFTC Jake
What a great way to start the school holidays with a FTF.
The emails came through so we jumped in the car and headed to the easiest of the newly published local caches, where we made a quick find.
While we were there, the kids had a play in the playground, we had not been here since they were very young when it was a favorite. After thirty mins or so no one else had showed up so we headed home, deciding to share the love and leave the FTF on the other cache to some others.
Thanks for bringing us back here after so long and thanks for the prize, it will go towards a cache we are currently finalizing.

While staying with our family in Sydney, and being keen geocachers, we set off in search of this cache very soon after it had been published, with a possible FTF in mind.However we were a little too late, but pleased to have Bronze. This was a nice quick find.

After FTFing the other AmJake cache and having a great chat with Baktrak, we headed to this one to complete the duo.
We parked around 300m away and set off on this lovely afternoon to GZ. After a very short time the cute little box was uncovered and we opened it up to find we were STF. Thejohnnos had tricked us and FTFed the cache even before we were home from school. Them private school people!!
Another great cache for an afternoon adventure. Thanks AmJake
