Hi League13,

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. 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 28 days) 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 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.

Hi League13,

This cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, only to discourage people from visiting this location until this cache may be addressed.

**Please note that caches disabled during the current COVID19 crisis you will be given some extra time to react as we recognise that CO's can't just pop out and fix the issue,** geocache maintenance can wait. Once the acute threat of pandemic is over, I will remind you about your cache needing attention.

Should you feel it safe for you to maintain and address this cache now, AND your regional Health and Governmental authorities allow it, please feel free to do so. However, I would like to assure you I will not be archiving any caches which the cache owner does not currently feel safe to maintain.

I'll pass by in about another 45 days and hopefully this will all be over.

A late night caching adventure brought me to the GZ, and there was one feature there that I’ve seen utilised many times before.
After waiting for a pause in the traffic, the find was made.
Tftc.
 
21-Sep-19
Easy! Too many hints:) found it, then realized I didn’t have a pen on me. Started walking back to the car and found a working pen on the ground, ha!:)
 
12-Sep-19
Finished work early and decided to come this way. First one for the day. I spied a logical spot and yes it was there. The lid is broken so was hard putting back.

03-Jun-19
With no break in my work schedule today during daylight hours to go and grab a cache i chose to head up here after dark to grab this one to keep my streak going.
Having read a couple of the comments i had a good idea of where to look and thanks to the good coords and the clue i was able to grab it straight away.
The log is currently a ripped off piece of cardboard and will need replacing but otherwise the cache is in good order.
Thanks.

Went to the wrong spot initially, but ended up finding it. Scrolled through the logs to find hints.

Took me a few ‘ feels’ but found it - desperately needs more and better log sheets

My name is in the log because my Mum found it for me so technically I found it

Had a strong feeling I knew where this cache would be hidden having seen a few like this and we made a very quick find, it was on the ground in the open. We quickly grabbed it and moved away out of sight of the builders and traffic people across the road directing trucks doing work on the church to SL. Replacing it was a little tricky due to the work going on across the road but we got there in the end. Suspect it will need some maintenance soon, log is just a bit of cardboard someone has placed in there, I didn't have anything on me to replace it and I think the cache container will slide out into the open again. TFTC!

Find #: 2,027
Companions: None
Muggles: None
Weather: Pleasant autumn afternoon
Cache condition: Good

I parked in the curved road, to be nearly run over by some buses racing down what appeared to be the wrong way, at least compared to how people park on the road. Once at GZ it was pretty obvious where to search, having seen this hide style in a few other caches in the area - CIH! TNLNSL, TFTC
 
02-Feb-19
Came once and did not find at first but then came back and looked longer to eventually find the cache!
 
25-Nov-18
Hint says "shoelaces" but only if you were standing on your head. Someone had put it up high. Found thanks to photo and replaced low. TFTC
 
25-Nov-18
Quick find but tricky to retrieve from where it had been put back, not in accordance with the hint. We put it back where intended. TFTC

TFTC I visited many a parks today Wink
 
11-Jul-18
Today we headed back over to North Ryde and Denistone for some more short walk and "park & grab" caches. And amazingly we ended up making the exact same number of finds (17), and also the exact same number of DNF's (4), as yesterday. This was the 15th of 17 finds for the day.

A quick find of a very popular caching container hidden in a familiar hiding style. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. TFTC League13.
