Found the fishing wire to retrieve the cache but definitely no cache on the end; ah well
 
12-Mar-22
No luck here today.
 
26-Feb-22
Looked for a good 15, couldn’t find the crane
 
11-Feb-22
Came to The Shire for our Friday afternoon post-work caching walk. Enjoyed reading about the crazies but had no luck at GZ today. We found where the hoisting device was attached but there was nothing attached to it. This probably explains why half a container has been hanging around the last few months. We saw no sign of the container. Oh well, it was an interring place to visit. Cheers…. Gaztek
 
06-Feb-22
Well, some serious maintenance is required here, as this is just a follow up of the previous two finders

Found it late afternoon. Cute little container. BYO pen/pencil. Needs new log.
 
03-Apr-21
We were here nice and early but still there were a few walkers about. The log book is a bit full but that's because some nuff-nuffs have scrawled their names the entire length of the log. Nice one.

Fun hide, clever use of materials & hint. Thanks Team MavEtJu

Cache on!

23-Feb-21
A nice quick find to start the day! Looking at a previous log definitely helped! Sadly log was full as previous finders decided to take up 16 spaces with their 1 log. Tftc!

Out doing some late night Adventure Labs with steeba. We found most of the labs south of the CBD and as we completed the LAB we were fortunate enough to grab these bonus caches.

As we grabbed a nearby waypoint for a LAB we stopped here to get this one.
Thanks
