It appears the owner has stopped replying and the cache is still missing.

Time for the cache to go?

Missing cache

Five months ago the owner confirmed this as missing. Has it been replaced?
 
31-Oct-18
I had a good look around amongst the indicated places but there is a considerable amount of leaf litter and sticks covering everything so I only had one good look in the most likely spots before heading off as we needed to be elsewhere. Will probably call in again for a better look next visit from the north.

Thank you Geocachers for your wonderful messages. I stopped by to give it a bit of long overdue care and attention but unfortunately our Geocache has been taken. Give me a couple of weeks and get it replaced - target by end Aug 2018. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Found this cache thrown in the bushes without cap and has filled with water all the prizes washed away and log book was destroyed

Couldn’t find the cap

Could the owner please come and collect the cache as it is no longer usable

It will be in the same place as first hidden

After parking near GZ it was a short walk to the large water tank and after a brief search it was CIH. Played a few rounds here in my younger days. Course looks great today. TFTC KimLoane.
 
26-Oct-17
Our first geocache find! TFTC. Container hinge is broken, so comes open easily and is probably not water tight anymore.
 
19-Oct-17
Impressed by the size! Could do with a pen and log book about to run out. Tftc
 
10-Oct-17
Good luck!

Found this one pretty easy thanks for the adventure. Zaproaster
 
28-Aug-17
With temps around 12degs, te car was a warmer option then staying inside so to get blood flowing, a few cache finds should help.
This took a little longer than anticipated. Phone lied to me so danced around the tank a little further. Yay!! TFTC.
 
20-Aug-17
TFTC. Forgot our pen

I was looking in the wrong area and this took way too long to find, but eventually I widened my search area and the easy-to-find cache was unearthed. TNLNSL TFTC

27-Jul-17
Working in the areas I thought and find a few caches while I'm here before heading home.
I followed my phone towards GZ and the cache didn't take long to find at all as it was in plain sight. Oh wow, this is the first plastic ammo style container I've come across. Log was signed and I returned the cache as found.
There were no trackables in the container, they appear to have been removed and not logged out.

Find: 361
4th of 5 finds for today
1 DNFs for today
Cache: In good condition apart from the broken hinge but still waterproof.
Log book: Its a little worse for wear. The staples holding the booklet together have rusted trough but otherwise still dry and signable. Booklet is almost full.

Thanks BoogieRogue - will give it some care and attention.

Previously logged under team account BoogieRogue. Re-logging with my individual account. The cache was visible from far away without any sort of camo. I put it back where I found it, but probably needs a better hide. All bugs are MIA. TFTC TNLNSL.

After visiting my brother in law nearby we came here for a quick cache before returning home. It was indeed a quick find. Logbook is almost full. Unfortunately the 3 tb's listed in the inventory are not present in the cache.

Nice Cache!
Together with MMXX.

On a walk around Lane Cove we came across several caches.

So far seen on this trip: Thailand, New Zealand and Australia.

TFTC from a geocacher on his journey through the world.

Danke!

After a semester abroad in New Zealand, I travel around Sydney and the blue mountains with MMXX now. There are plenty of amazing spots to discover.
Thanks for placing a geocache here and sorry that I keep my logs short.

We wanted to find at least one cache today, to qualify for the "Haunted Hides" souvenir, so I decided to stop off on my way home from work to see what I could pick up around the Northwood area. This was the 4th find of the day (a total of 5 finds, 1 DNF, and 1 "unable to search" for the day).

I was now heading toward home, but stopped off for this one as I was passing. Parked the geomobile in Gamma Road, and then headed across the lawn toward GZ. Took the more difficult "direct route" straight through the scrub, and soon arrived at GZ.

Noticed the cache container as I approached, and so it was to be a very quick find. This is the first time I have seen a plastic version of this "classic" type of caching container. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. I then took the much easier route, going around the scrub, to get back to the geomobile. TFTC KimLoane.

Find #1435
 
30-Oct-16
Found no worries, would type more but my internet connection seems to be failing...

EDIT: Stupid 'net connection - anyway came here after the "7 Bridges Walk", cache easily spotted, worrysome brown patches, signed log, TFTC!

EDIT #2: NONE of the 3 listed trackable were in this cache today Sad

In between looking for a property to rent, it was necessary to let a little boy run around and burn off a bit of energy in a park. This spot was probably the closest that was convenient at the time, and there was a cache to be found, too.

A lovely patch of green with lots of trees and space to run. We watched some golfers enjoying their morning round before heading down to GZ. It was easy to spot the large container as we approached. The contents were slightly damp. Alas, also only two items of swag on such a large box. We found a further two items lying on the ground nearby, which I returned to the cache after signing the log. I also left my signature small wire dog.
 
08-Aug-16
Lovely sunny walk and I avoided muggles and stray golf balls. Thanks!!!
 
17-Jul-16
Made my way down the hill today for a nice quick find as it was pretty much out in the open. After signing tried to tuck it in a little better so it's not as noticeable to the casual observer. I could hear golfers but couldn't see any today. Thanks KimLoane.
 
09-Jul-16
Very easy to find but nice surprises in the cache. Nice work on the box waterproof even in heavy weather.
 
03-Jul-16
Found it but no pen in cache and I had forgotten mine so photo of log book attached. TFTC!
 
06-May-16
Great hide and our first find. Thanks we had fun.
 
29-Apr-16
Came to drop off a travel bug. I was a little worried it would be overflowing with TBs based on the inventory, but that was not the case. There was only 1 TB present, so I did a swap.
The groundskeeper obviously is using this as a dumping ground for grass clippings. Might have to keep an eye on that if he starts to spread them closer to GZ.
 
24-Apr-16
Never seen one of these caches before. Great idea but not as waterproof as their metal counterparts. Dropped a TB in the box. Cheers!
 
13-Mar-16
Saw a few dodgy shots on my way here but they still looked to be having fun !

Quick find as was universes, signed log and gave it a cover of natural camo

2 days in a row geocaching with a good friend. its a little cooler than yesterday which made it nicer to find the hides and faster to find them today, some of them were very tricky

Easy find and in an evident hiding spot. Watch out for straying golf balls.

Doing some bush regen here and did the obligatory search for a nearby cache. 48m that's close. Was a quick find. Cache was full of water so drained it. No pen so ripped a bit off the last page. Unable to get lid on properly so did my best and pushed a little further under the rock. Tftc tnln

A quick find after a little scrambling. Cheers. Nice container. Should last a long time.

Thx nick

An easy find, my first of the newish plastic ammo cans, gotta say, not a fan, give me a metal one any day. Dropped a couple of trackables in and found a pen nearby.
 
31-Oct-15
I bet these neighbours are tickled pink with a sanctuary on their door step. What a great looking course from up here, Rock skipped, until a likely hide showed itself, thanks for the cute hide KimLoane
 
30-Oct-15
Thanks for the find. The geobf had fun rummaging around while I kept a personal lookout for spiders haha
 
25-Oct-15
Parked in the nearby street and strolled down towards the two water tanks. After a bit of rummaging through the bush, the cache was soon found. An interesting plastic version of an otherwise well known caching container.

Every now and then I need to come to this area for a meeting. But the last time must have been before January, as I hadn't picked up this conveniently located cache. Got to the area, and then spotted a nice little GeoTrail, and made a quick find.
 
29-Aug-15
nice find by grumpy cat
 
16-Aug-15
Another one while I was in the area. I'd not been down this road before and I thought this was a park before I realised it was a golf course. The hint was good to get in the right area as my GPS was playing up but then I checked the likely spots and moved out to find the cache which wasn't that well hidden in the end. A plastic ammo can! Nice to see a decent sized cache again. Signed and replaced.

Thanks!

Cache No. #378.
Cache of the day: #1 of #1.
Time: 10:40 AM.
Streak Day: #4.
TB's Discovered: #0.
TB's Retrieved: #1 (O BOMBEIRITO - MELO).
TB's Visited: #2 (Cyber Sunnies, Rakosnicek).
TB's Dropped: #0.

Came down here with William Rhodes today to find this cache. Tried to keep the streak alive and this was the cache chosen. Took a while to locate but we found it in the end. Someone tried to start a story so we followed suit and carried it on.
Took the TB that was there but hadn't been logged to get it on the go again.
The cache contents were a bit wet but not too bad.

Anyways, thanks for the cache.

Great one for the GeoKids

First cache for the day and it was an easy one. Spotted from the golf course. TFTC!
 
25-Jul-15
Thanks Kim - I tried to interest Andrew P in coming with me to find your cache but it seems I married a muggle!

Log book is dry but inside of box damp (not too bad )

Thanks for fun find!

So, it turns out I was looking in the wrong spot...

Found with Jase90 at 5:08 PM. Feeling as though I needed to take a short break from studying, Jase90 was in the area and suggested we duck down the road to pick up a quick cache. Jase90 picked me up and we headed over to Lane Cove to attempt the Hole In One Traditional Cache. We parked the car at the top of the hill on Gamma Road and walked down the lawn towards the published location. Upon reaching Ground Zero in the fading light, it took us a couple of minutes searching until we spotted something which looked out of place and had the Cache In Hand not long after that. We performed the signing duties before returning the cache to its hiding location. Signed Log, Took Nothing Left Nothing. Thanks For The Cache KimLoane.

Found at 5:08pm with JordsAU.

JordsAU and I were out for a few caches this afternoon but we were side-tracked by the footy which we ended up kicking for nearly 2 hours at Buffalo Creek Reserve and managed to only finish the day with one find and one DNF.

We arrived here and headed straight to GZ where we spotted a likely place for the cache to be and within a couple of minutes we made the find.

Signed log, thanks for the cache KimLoane and well done on your first hide.

Found the cache and got a haircut full of spider web. Totally worth it, thank you!

Streak day #192 - after a very lazy morning I decided to head to Lane Cove so I could grab an audiobook from their library. I was considering doing several caches over this way, but ended up running low on time, plus a new cache came up closer to home. If no one else beat me I wanted to try for a first to find. I used to know this area really well as I used to deliver and repair the garbage bins, so I would spend hours driving around the various streets each week. I've forgotten a bit, but I found my way down to Gamma road easily enough where I parked hoping for a quick find. As I walked across the grass I almost rolled my ankle on a pesky rock that was hiding in the grass. grrrr my ankles already aren't the best without making it worse because of a silly misstep. I threw it into the bush so no one else would suffer the same fate. As I started walking down the hill but quickly realised I needed to go further around. I was surprised to see a White-faced heron standing by the pool in one of the neighbouring yards. As I got closer to the GZ I had to be careful of the nearby golfing muggles who no doubt thought the girl in the dress walking onto the golf course must be lost. It didn't take me too long to locate the cache despite the need for stealth. I had to work around spiders webs though. I signed the log quickly and put the cache back where I found it. Trying to maintain my stealth I took the time to take a photo of another heron that was looking for food a little further down the hill. See, I'm just an innocent bird watcher. Wink TFTC.

Finding a couple of caches along Stringybark Creek whetted my appetite for more so I drove over to attempt this one. There were no golfers close so I was able to locate the hide without being observed.

There was an unlisted TB in the cache so I took it to move on.

Nice one, thanks KimLoane.
 
21-May-15
Quick stop and find. SL and replaced. Added a bit extra camo as it was poking out a bit. TFTC.

First one with little brother

Checked cache after reports of it having water in it. All good now.
 
07-May-15
A quick find once at GZ. I would have thought that the contents would have been drier that they were considering the container. Just goes to show you how water is not a force to be taken lightly.

4th for the day.

Found during a night walk. Left TB. Thanx.

Found it this afternoon with the kids. We had to wait for a few golfers to play through before we could get to GZ but once we were there we found it quite quickly. Signed the log book and swapped a toy for another toy. A fun cache. TFTH.
 
18-Mar-15
Out looking for something other than another 1½/1½ urban nano and found this nicely placed, decent-sized hide. Took the dino-TB. Thanks KimLoane.
 
08-Mar-15
Checking out the cache is all intact and dry. All good. Dropped off a new trackable to set it on its journey.

5th cache! TNLNSL TFTC

Why did the golfer get a new pair of socks?
Because he had a (insert cache name here)!

Anyway this was on a direct line between an appointment and home. A quick shifty around and I found the container with official pencil inside!

TFTC KimLoane - nice view down the fairway.
