Good Day,
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 a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.
Looking forward to hearing from you,

The kids and I headed out this morning to nab a few caches. We fly back to cold Ballarat on Sunday so are attempting to get cache #5000 in sunny QLD. This took a little searching but I soon noticed something odd. Really nice hide here. Also got a toot - not sure if it was a fellow cacher? Many thanks for the cache.
Someone please update the coordinates. Spent half hour with four people and no such luck
FOUND IT! Big thank you to Paul who came and helped us out. Talk about a twist in the plot!
Initially GZ seemed to be in the bushes but read a few logs and found new coords which could not be used right away as a parked muggle was opposite the new GZ. Finally said muggle drove off and the cunning hide was spotted after some testing moments at 16:05. Thanks Nedandmrskelly
Co Ordinates need to be updated as the posted co ordinates are to far distant.
We came across your cache, Nedandmrskelly, after an event for Temingi's 10-10,000
Nice quick find while popping up up to Rocky for Lunch - and a few caches this later afternoon
Log signed and cache replaced at 12:03 PM on May 27, 2018. TFTC.

Almost stumped us! Daughter finally spied it. Great camp container. Thanks for the hint Roddyc and YOF.

Using Co Ordinates by another finder we arrived close to GZ and parked adjacent to a certain object. We are in Yeppoon for an event tomorrow hosted by Temingi.
Walked over and soon spied something that was a little different. Liked the well placed and constructed container. All good here. Signed log YOF as that is what I use on small and micro logs to save space on the paper. TFTC Nedandmrskelly

A day of caching with Dad off to a slow start with us circling here for 20mins with no luck. Next time maybe
Poking around GZ,
it seemed pretty obvious where the cache was hidden.
Not at the coords,
but closer to where the damn "Munzee" is located
But don't let the damn "Munzee" distract you.
You are not there yet
I poked for a goodly 15 minutes before I finally got serious
Oh yeah !!
I've seen exactly this type of hide a few weeks ago !! [:o]
So as soon as I saw it I knew I'd found it [^]
Brilliant camo in such a spot though [^]
Gotta give it a fave dance point !!

Found at 8:22 AM GAFF4.
Gosh - this was a tough micro cache to find as it is 14 metres out! A very nicely camoed cache that is for sure and one that we have not seen before done in exactly the same way.
Thanks Nedandmrskelly.
Feedback: We have provided the corrected co-ords if the CO would like to update the posted co-ords.

No luck for the three of us tonight. It is always difficult when someone says the coords may be a little off. Nothing obvious for us, but 'Get Well' was exactly what I was going ot need in just a few short hours from now!
It has been far too long since Seffnjarah, Swellerfungus and I did stupid things on a roadtrip a long way from home. So, a caching road trip from Brisbane to Rocky & Yeppoon and a few ports (and mountains) in between was planned. The well planned though overly optimistic caching itinerary included miscellaneous mind bending puzzles, half a dozen or so of Queensland's Oldest caches a few wee hill climbs, a healthy selection of unloved caches and any other interesting caches in between.
We all had our various theories about what type of cache container this one was. The previous logs are a little contradictory. A thorough search revealed nought. Glad we stopped though, as we now knew where the emergency was and little did we know we would be back later in the night.

The Bromance called in here as part of our weekend road trip from Brisbane. Unfortunately three sets of eyes failed to find the cache here, although we did find the secret stash for some muggle smokers. At least our visit taught us where the emergency room was, which Swellerfungus would unexpectedly make a visit to later in the evening.
After i think the third time here and walking away empty handed and scratching my head in frustration i finally found it after about 15 minutes and a phone call to a friend who had found it . Who i might add was laughing because I couldn't see it. Very very clever. Tftc
Thought we knew what we would be looking for here but couldn't come up with the goods. Searched for about half an hour and then as we were leaving we had another theory so turned around and went back again. Certainly made us feel foolish when we noticed that cachers with 10 and under finds had got this one. Maybe next time, thanks.
needing a find to plug a hole in the calendar , we came here to check out the area if we need it some day, Not in a hurry to return.
The cache was an easyish find when I thought about where it might be and I recall a lot of the finds we had of your and searched accordingly.

forgot to log a few caches whilst in yeppoon in august, so i am updating before we head up again! this was a great cache, tricky, but have seen a few of these before. gracias ned and mrs kelly.
Finally found it .... After going back three times we could not find it walked around everywhere near coordinates but couldn't seem to see it ... Then finally after a hint from CO went back for the forth time n found it !! Just a hint it's not exactly at coordinates .
Found it but not without help from Nedandmrskelly. I was looking in the wrong place and trying not to look crazy in the process to the rest of the world driving past. This was a cool looking cashe love it.
You can see it from the road.

cache find #3290 This was a very quick find. We spotted the cache as soon as we arrived at GZ. TFTC.
Arrived at GZ with Dossiesjay and the GPS had us walking all over looking like yet another crazy from the hospital. after a few occasions where we wanted to give up but refused, we started again & I had my hands on it and was giggling to myself..... my first day caching and I had the prize.
Arrived at GZ with super moose Jr and we thought we had it in the bag. The GPS sent us on a wild goose chase and we were back and forth for way too long whilst people were driving past looking at us, we were close to giving up a few times but we didn't want to so we went with what we thought and still came up with nothing until first time cacher super moose Jr had her hands on the prize! Great cache TFTF
Second of this afternoon's group and once I'd parked the car, it actually ended up being a surprisingly quick find of the cleverly hidden stash at 16:50. Unfortunately, the ants found me somehow while I was completing the formalities.
TNLNSL, although our BYO pen geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks Nedandmrskelly.

While everyone headed to the Stanthorpe MEGA (I accidentally double booked myself) I headed here to visit my parents for Easter.
After Red Dwarfs suggested this one I headed for GZ while I had Geohubby on the phone. JUST in case I asked him if Merryn was nearby but no such luck. However luck was not needed as I had seen a few like this in my travels.
I signed the log and returned it to its home before discreetly leaving.
Later I was pleased to receive a photo from Geohubby with the Co.

Well this one had me stumped for a bit. Never done a cache like this one before. A bit of a hint from Temingi put me on the right track. It's definitely not a 1 star difficulty cache. Maybe 2 1/2 to 3 stars. CO may want to look at it and change it. Cache all good and SL. TFTC
Searched for awhile. We know that we are looking for something different but no luck. Any hints?
Dug in the sand, looked like a crazy person as several cars drove by, still didn't find! Anyone have any hints??
#FTF# Gotcha !!!Thanks for placing some new caches in our area. Hope there will be many more.
(P.S. you can let Red Dwarfs off the leash now ) Visited TBs and GCs.
