This cache must have been removed by ranger as it is no longer there and location has been changed
Amazing sunset opportunity, however no go on the cache.
Lookout upgrade may have covered or removed this.

Found hiding location with photos in logs, but no container.
Looked down slope, but also nothing, probably lost

I looked for ages and read all the previous logs but could not find it. Bah! I returned for a second look later in the day and still found nothing.
Sorry guys but I do not think this cache is there any more. We have search high and low, looked at the clues and even pictures after getting home. Went back and search on out hands and knees but to no avail. Bitterly disappointing for us as travelled from UK but it's been eight months since last find so high possibility that is has gone. CO please check if still in situ.
Just checked this one. It sorta survived the fires. TB is safe with us. Replaced log book and container.
After a good hunt around and reading of clues and activity, found it!! Have left a trackable in it.
Beautiful view. Had a local muggle watching tv here. Must be a favourite Telstra spot. Cheers
Today we visited Eungella national park and found some caches. This one was hidden very good.. Without the picture - no chance. Thank you for showing this great point
More fabulous views! Love it! Thanks to the good hint we found the cache. (GPSr wanted us over the other side)
The log is too wet and slimy to sign so we left a replacement log and double bagged it. Hope that keeps the water out a bit better.
Thanks for placing this cache. Wonderful location.

Satisfying quick find as this cache has great camo! Sorry to report it was full of water so our mark on the log was difficult. Drained and dried contents as best we could but maintenance is needed. Took nothing left nothing - beautiful spot - TFTC!!
Ok so it seems I need to up the difficulty of this cache as several would be experienced caches dnf and logged a need archive I was doing a maintenance run today expecting cache to need replacing but it was still there safe and sound dry and in good health ,I rechecked cords and all is ok ,I even took a photo of cache very close to its hiding place to try and help
30/6/17 300pm Searched high and Low. Could not find worth the drive for the view
I can not see a needs maintenance log on this cache,
From the [Help Centre,](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=57)
>If you find a geocache that is in need of some help (e.g. container is cracked, logbook is full or wet), please post a "Needs Maintenance" log on the cache page so the cache owner and the community is notified. This log adds an attribute to the page (looks like a colored cross) to alert other geocachers of the needed repairs. Logging Needs Maintenance does not increase find count. Needs Maintenance logs are not forwarded to reviewers.
and from the [Archive help centre article](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=56)
>Please use this log only when there are serious problems with the cache or its location. Do not use it if the cache needs repairs, or you didn't find it, or the location made you uncomfortable. Please consider first contacting the owner of the geocache with your concerns. Use the profile link next to the cache owner's name at the top of the cache page to send an email, as well as logging to the cache page about your visit.
If you have no response from the cache owner after 30 days then I'd suggest using a Needs Archive Note. Except for in the most extreme cases, it's normally best to give the cache owner a chance to fix the issue before alerting the reviewers.

This seems to be a difficult one to find but I will try and get up there and check it in the next few weeks as I do need to do a log replacement run on some others thanks for the notification
This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.
DNF at 9:39 AM.
A lovely view, but we were then faced with dredging around a lot of undergrowth trying to find this cache. From what previous finders have said the co-ords are about 10 metres out, but even at that range we couldn't locate anything.

Could not find , had 4 people looking . Brand new to this . Gave up after half an hour. Might need more clues or get it checked
We were in the clouds looking for this and there were lots of leeches. Covered the GZ area and then expanded the search, GPS was showing 10m away when the cache was found. TFTC
No luck today here... maybe Next time....
Merry Christmas from Germany
Vielen Dank fürs Ausdenken, Legen, Hegen und Pflegen und natürlich ein dickes

Today we explored Dalrymple Heights and surrounds using geocaching as a guide and picking up a few caches on the way and this was one of them. A beautiful drive through the rainforest, thanks for showing us this location. An easy find. Took TB.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Out with the family great view up here
GPS was little over the place but had an idea where it would be
Drop off a trackable as well

today Ratdog and I returned to (hopefully) make a find. The boys were with us but not much help. We reminisced about the "olden" When we first moved to Eungella, This place had a long drop toilet, was a popular place to have "Bus Run" parties for the primary school bus run. So much has changed here since then, gone is the track and toilet so too the old handrail lookout. we remember when the tourist was leaning not he handrail and the rail gave way, at least they only fell into the lantana.
Today the cache was still hiding we thought. nothing to find around our GZ but then I said I was always going to hide one here but couldn't get permission from the National Parks people. [:(!]
Guess What I found the cache right where I would have placed it. it was very exposed today but I rehid it better, we did look there last time but obviously no good enough. Log signed Ratdog left me to rehide.

Visiting Eungella for a BBQ with old friends, we had time to come here for another look. I was searching in the very wrong area but the cache was found and all is good with the inside. Saw a bit of wildlife in the cache but nothing on the road or in this area today.
now we off for that BBQ. didn't have time for any other caches today next time

I have checked up on this cache recently and it is still there within a metre of original location someone moved it but it is still well hidden and you do not need to rummage through the bush it is close to walkway
our geosense gave us no clues for this one. or is disappeared. looked in a few places. Saw something we thought might be hide but it was pretty rotten and falling down. not our day today.
This cache gave us a reason to stop at this lookout which we hadn't been to before. TFTC.
We took a drive out from our camp spot at Broken River and were happy to find this great little lookout. The container was out in the open so after signing the log we re-hid it as per the hint. Thanks for bringing us here & TFTC.
Staying just down the road and were recommended to visit the lookout. Once we trusted our geosense we soon had the cache. Spotted a snake and a kookaburra on the way back to Eungella. TFTC.
GPSr didnt like the trees. Had me looking where others had been but then stopped for a think. Definitely no need to go trampling the bush, check out the view and rely on your geo senses. Cahe all good. Thank you modro1.
Kids were onto this one straight away, I think I would have had to search for a while longer. Great spot!
Had the little Blue Heelers scrambling round in the brush and an easy find. Did a little swap and back on our way.
been here a number of times
ah cache reincarnation ... ya got to love it [^]
been awhile since there was a cache here ... 2007 I think - GC121G5 "the valley"
just after QPWS pulled down the old observation platform and installed the path and retaining walls.
anyway, snuck up in the late afternoon for a look
Eungella was very quiet this afternoon,
pulled up, and tried to use the GPSr to guide me,
but it was bouncing around all over the place, so I read the description again, and put it away.
started having a scratch around, then some scrub turkeys came over to lend me hand
ahh, there you are
signed log, was a bit empty so left some colouring in pencils and a carabineer
and took the FTF note
thanks modro1
now off to check on the others
