Hi rinsemesocks,
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.

Took a good 20 minutes or so for me to find in the dusk! Great spot, great spot! TFTC!
Found, with Wazza9 on an effort to find some caches in the area, disappointing with the DNF's. Stamped log and replaced. Thanks to CO.
TFTC,
After 4 DNF's this cache gave me hope. A long time since I have visited a rincemesocks cache and as usual, a mint tin troll.
What started as a good start soon went bad with 3DNF's in a row and only 4 finds from 9 attempts.
I have been set a personal challenge by another cacher to lift my every day finds to 10 per day.
To complete this by the end of 2022, I have about 60 days that I must cache on and need to get up to 6 caches on the worst day. Since my local area has been almost cached out, it is necessary for me to travel to new areas or areas I have not cached in for some time. Unfortunately, my success rate is in the hands of the CO's maintaining their caches. An hour drive each way today for a les than 50% result will not bring me back in a hurry to this area.

Geodad, geoson13 and geodaugther9 out for a cycle and some caches. Geoson13 has this one quickly in hand. TFTC.
I love caches like these. It wasn't too hard and I found it fairly quickly. The street art on and around this bridge is so beautiful, take your time to check it out when finding this cache
Cache is approx 10m away from posted co-ords . Had to use my caching sixth sense and the clue (not the hint) to find it.
Third troll find for today on a lovely spring sTroll. TFTC.

Was about to give up when I noticed where the cache might be. Sure enough there it was. TFTC
A long hunt for this one under the night sky. After expanding the search some more we were finally able to sign our names. Glad to have a smile on this. TFTC
This one took a little while to find. My gps was putting me about 15m away from where the cache was finally found. My first find in this county - YAY!. TFTC
A late night caching trip in the rain, and a quick find.
The alternate approach made spotting and retrieval a fair bit easier than it could have been.

Great location took the kids a while but the 7yr old cracked it. Swapped the eraser for a car and dinosaur.
Fairly quick find, managed to pick it up without anyone seeing me (as it should be...). Thanks for placing.
Started with a 5 km run along Cooks river and mounted my bike for a total of almost 30 km to find lots of caches along the river/canal/stormdrain. Al were find quite quick and easy.

At the end of school holiday, brought geokids to have a walk along Cooks River for geocaches. Wrongly got the side of main road. It was a quick found. TFTC
rinsemesocks I found your cache Punchbowl Road Troll on 9/2/19, 3:45 pm. This is my find 2268 and find # 13 today. Coordinates spot on for a quick and easy find. Thanks for the cache! TNSLLN
Really quick find from the grass side, parked 50m away a few days ago and spent too much time on the one along the creek, this no time here that day. Here today and glad to remove the green drop off my landscape, thanks rinsemesocks

Was out over this way today and needed a quick find.
This was nice and easy and very easy to walk under the road.

Helped BMX501 find today. It was found fairly quickly. Unfortunately too small to deposit a trackable. Will have to find another one.
