Unfortunately there was no response (or regular update) from the owner within the time requested and as per the original note this cache has been archived. If you wish to replace it please submit a new cache via [this link](https://www.geocaching.com/play/hide).Ngaambul - Matt
Hi Sicad69,The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention, or it may not but in the absence of the cache owner performing maintenance and/or disabling the cache to check it out, I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner 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 4 weeks) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.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 4 weeks 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.Ngaambul - Matt
If were at the right spot - also known as Ground Zero - but no physical cache, then one cannot claim a valid find! No handwritten entry on the paper log is a DNF. Thanks Sicad69 for having these caches for play over the years, however its time for archive unless adopted out by CO
See my DNF. String present but nothing at the end. Could CO Sicad69 please adopt these out for another geocacher to keep these in play, as per your request last year? Or archive? Much appreciated.
Great cache idea, but it has fallen into the bottom of the post. Need replacing.
Found it but as others have mentioned the string is there with nothing attached.
This cache , as well as all my caches are available for adoption as I have moved from the area and cannot maintain anymore.
We found it but we cant say we logged it. It seems to have fell down, so we need some owner attention.
It is not retrievable. The string was clearly cut so the cache must of fell down. Thank you.
Astrid, Maeve and Teddy found their 1st Geocache and were SO excited. Now to find some more.
A nice quick find after the nearby muggles moved off.
The logbook is very full and need replacing also the lid on the cache container it's starting to break and I'm not sure how much longer it will last

Had to come around a second time because muggles were near the GZ. Got there in the end

This was the only find for the day. Needing a traditional to fill in a missing date in my calendar, I pulled out my list of traditionals that would potentially be easy to locate and noted this was the next one on the list. It is difficult to refrain from finding lots of caches in one day when trying to fill spots in the calendar. Having learnt my lesson about previously missing the turn into the estate parking area, this time I didn’t make the same mistake. Still unsure if I could park any closer to GZ for this cache, I decided the walk would do me good. I made my way towards GZ but as I approached, I realised I could be here for awhile to conduct a thorough check. Sure enough, it took several attempts until I had CIH. SL. TFTC.

At the third time we could grab the box, before there where to many people.
Thanks

Inventive little spot. The hint does give it away a little. Thanks for the find.
We were in the dog park and we thought there might be something in there so we check and there was
Find #: 2,618
Companions: None
Muggles: A family enjoying the park
Weather: Cool winter day
Cache condition: Good
After finding #3 I doubled back to #7. By this stage I had completed the AL that shares the park, so was able to aim directly at each cache. I found the cache in the second place I looked, annoying the local critter (sorry, spud). TNLNSL, TFTC

Came for a nocturnal wander and a few finds. Found both as have others. Thanks Sicad69.
A quick find between muggles. Not easy on the weekend that’s for sure! I had a curious dog sniffing at the fence but the owner wasn’t looking my way luckily. TFTC!
Found easily in the dark. OCW MaxAdventurer after C62 Geom8 CCE at the Ettamogah Pub. TFTC Sicad69
A quick find with the geodog Zelda while attempting the new AL around here.
Saw the decoys, and the real one too. Zelda enjoyed the play in between caches and AL stages. TFTC

We took our visiting grand doggie to the dog park and afterwards we discovered this cache. Cool hide. Thank you for this cache.
The OlMaLol’s arrived back from QLD today and whilst Mr OlMaLol had to return to Canberra, miss OlMaLol stayed with her family for a few more days. We had previously taken them caching with us and they loved it so much that we set up an account for them. And thus another cacher exists! So along with our geopup and the newbies, AusPol, we went for a gentle stroll around the park collecting a few caches.
With our geopup, dog parks are a must with his boundless energy so when this cache turned out to be right outside it seemed perfect for us. We found this after AusPol’s failed attempt. All in all a great start to this series and we will definitely be back to finish this off. Ttfc

An easy find with the help of the clue. It just required a bit of patience to find the right spot.
The cache seems to have been moved a short distance from the original coords.
The container is in good condition and the log is dry.
Thanks.
