Was out looking for the new one and found the original still in play.
 
01-Oct-21
We were looking for another cache at this location and found this original container which has been archived. The current container is black where as the one we found is silver with a full log. The CO advised me that it would be OK to log this cache to keep our streak alive.

Hi emilywanders,

This cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give you 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 45 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness. **Please note that caches disabled during the current COVID19 crisis will be given some extra time to react as we recognise that CO's can't just pop out and fix the issue.

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 listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

30-Dec-19
Back home and needing to keep my streak ticking over I thought I'd have a go at this one whilst in the area and noticing it had a recent find.

Looking, looking, looking and ……………...found! Took me 45 frustrating minutes to find something that with hindsight was very simple.

Was happy to have this cache in hand after only a couple of minutes. A previous log did help but still had to risk the fears and have a feel. Australia has a lot more creepy crawlers than home
Cache all good. Hi from NZ and TFTC
 
18-Oct-18
Will try again
 
08-Oct-18
Another doozy. This one just takes a lot of searching in the right areas. Four today for Braxx Yvette and Corey. Yeeew!!

After seeing the replacement back in April, this cache has been on the search list for awhile. Got the chance to search for this today and after looking in a bunch of potential site found this one when we took a step in the right direction.

Avoided the tennis playing and swimming muggles for a quick sign of the log. Thanks for replacing this cache and another smiley to add to the map. TFTC

Sneaky little spot. Just remember to check EVERYWHERE.

Couldn't find this cache again. It's not in the same spot where I found it last time. Although, It could have been moved to another location. May need to check this one CO.

We finally got the little bugger Smile. After about 3dnf's and lots of time. Glad to put a smiley on this one. Thanks emilywanders for the hunt:-)
 
17-Nov-16
Another look for this one and another DNF, I think I have lost my caching mojo as this one still eludes me. I have no doubt it is there, I just can't see it. Hopefully one day I can convert this one to a smiley. Thanks for the chase emilywanders. Sad

Quick find today after no luck last time. Tftc.
 
11-May-16
Seeing as this had been found since my DNF I came back for another look and spent too long looking over an object mentioned in one log. Looked further afield but found nothing. Sent a PM to a previous finder but didn't get a reply before I left. I was halfway back to my hotel when the reply came so I wheeled around and returned. The hint was gold and I made a quick find this time. It's NOT on the power box (or near it really) so I don't know what that log was about. Anyway I was happy to sign and replace.

Thanks!
 
15-Apr-16
Took me a while to find but found it! Haha
Make sure to check every thing metal.

05-Apr-16
Going by previous logs and the fact it hasn't been found for a while I'll guess that this is gone again. No sign of it in the logical spot. Or elsewhere.

It appears as though This cache has been muggled. I have ordered a replacement micro and will reactivate it once I have replaced the cache. Thanks, Emily.
 
27-Sep-15
Both Wolffman05 and myself searched the area thoroughly today, with no luck. Checked the hint and searched the obvious location. Too good for us today, so we're walking away with a Sad face. Thanks for the challenging hide emilywanders. I'll place this cache on my watchlist and have another go at turning it into a Smile face when I know it's definitely there.
 
18-Aug-15
Quick lunchtime drive by. Very easy find. TFTC!
 
15-Aug-15
See previous note.
 
09-Aug-15
We got a bit worried that we were not cut out for geocaching when we were having so much trouble looking for this one, especially when it has been described as a nice easy find. After searching every inch of the power box and deciding to get back in the car, geo son started giggling and produced the cache from his pocket - arrrrrhhhhh!!!!!

{*FTF*} @18.30 with Jackylegs44
Very quickly engaged muggle P as driver, she was fast on it and does it good!
We had to wait for a freight train and still I was able to make the first group.Smile
Not as hard as it could have been given the location, low muggle factor this time of day and week too.
Said it yesterday, happy to see a new cacher in Townsville
Thanks for the cache

Woohooo. Got there and none of the usual suspects there. Had located cache quickly, got log out as karicka stopped with screeching tyres and ran as fast as the old legs would carry him
