The guidelines advise that the CO should make occasional visits to check on the cache as well as promptly address any logs that indicate that the cache requires some attention. If you can not attend to the issue promptly, then you need to Disable the cache - I have disabled it this time.

Tried to find this cache on an awesome boating/caching weekend at Younghusband with Hurtle, Astro, Cache_Or_Check, Malco and Four-Fun. Had quite a few of us scrabbling in the dirt looking for it but couldnt find it either.
This is a DNF for me too...
Alas a takeaway container is always going to look like rubbish, it finally looks like it has been binned...

Despite there being lots of campers all the way along the bank, there were none near GZ, so I was able to have a decent fossick around. Checked out lots of nooks and crannies, but no luck for me today.
Travelling around Australia.
Back in SA for a few weeks and loving it already. Magnificent weather that has been turned on for us.
Up early this morning to go to the Dawn Service, back at home, we checked out nearby caches,packed some lunch and set off for a days outing. [^]
Well a full on day we had. How do they say [?] When in Rome ........ Well when in the Australian Power Trail State do some Power trails [:o)]
So sure enough a big day out for us and we arrived home exhausted and with 81smilies our reward.

Heading back to Adelaide for an appointment,
we had to take the scenic route for a change!
Somehow the map had followed some little green boxes,
and yours was one of them!!!
After a bit of a hunt it was soon unearthed.

found it on the long way home from camp and kayak event. cache was in about 8 pieces. log book dry and in one piece. replaced cache with picture shown added plastic bag and pencil as well. recovered well with cammo but I don't understand how it could get damaged there, maybe a fallen branch?
Returning home from a weekend up the river so took the opportunity to call in at Big Bend and collect a couple of caches [^]

CPWanderer & I were down this way grabbing some new caches.
As it was the last day of school holidays, it was busy with human & car traffic.
Found it in the first place we looked, but was deceived from a tricky camo hide.
Loved the piece of nature at GZ & the cheeky hide.
Thanks for bringing us here pinkjellyfishy
