This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.


Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache.

If you plan on repairing this cache, please log a note to the cache (not email) within the next 28 days so I don't archive the listing for non-communication.

Nope

Didn't find

Found it! easy cache but didn’t have a pen/pencil so we couldn’t put our names on the log!

Found this morning after reading coolcatacoolplaces' log.
TFTC!

Another day another cache, quick grab at GZ.

Looked for about 20 mins on both sides of the bridge and couldn't find it!

Found! Different tin and location to what used to be here

Lozza47

Didn't have enough time. Also think I was on the wrong side.

Used coolcatacoolplaces log for a GZ as it's 12m away the shops and not as per posted coords. I knew what to expect as for the container, thanks rinsemesocks

rinsemesocks I found your cache Hercules Street Troll (Dulwich Hill) on 28/1/19, 3:08 pm. This is my find 2243 and find # 9 today. Went back after I read the previous find log and eventually found it. Not where I thought it would be. Thanks for the cache! TNSLLN

rinsemesocks I didn’t find your cache Hercules Street Troll (Dulwich Hill) on 28/1/19, 2:58 pm. Searched the likely spots but couldn’t find it.

Found it on grating - so replaced close by

DNF

First find of the summer holidays

Easy find! Did not bring a pen so was unable to log - found with geo doggo

Great spot! 2nd finder and official log book!

Since November 5th I study Englisch at ILSC for 1 month. On this day I went first to home after school and then I walked around for searching boxes. At this place the cache was obviously gone. I could replace it so that the game can go on.
Thanks for the cache from Bonn, Germany

I could see it but all the way down there, haha, checked everywhere and even the other side of the brick wall. Sat down and read past logs for easy finds and colour of the container informs me of one location. Stood up for higher elevation and then wondered. Oh that looks similar to a mint tin with same colour but close to 4-5m down, hmmm, may need to fish or replace, thanks rinsemesocks

Unfortunately no joy on this one despite photo clues and the compass. Hopefully next time!

Another day another cache, quick grab at GZ.
Cheers

Didn't seem as though it should be hard, but no luck here today.

Good one

This one was where it was supposed to be

Easy peasy coordinates are bang on

Found whilst waiting for geo sons soccer match to start nearby, log was hard to get out because of the name tag someone had jammed in, finally removed the name badge, sorry but what a silly item to jam in.... thanks to the CO for this cache, I used to live in these parts 24 years ago...memories.....

This one was found soon after hopping off the light rail.

Good one, thanks rinsemesocks.

After a DNF up the road at dully, I came down here for a quick find. Hard to get the log out with that name tag in there. Cache# 793 TFTC

After a totally awesome day I decided to finish the day with s few caches. I saw this one as I approached the lid was not closed. When I looked inside there was someone’s name tag for Woolworths. I sign a fresh log and return everything to the cache I could not get the lid to close. So it is still open a little and water will get in. Tftc

Fun

Found

We set off with the geo dogs today a bit early as it was still very hot - a bit too hot! This one was easy but it took us a while to find it. Lots of fun. Nice one rinsemesocks. The log was full so left a little piece of paper in case someone else came today!

Kids very excited to find their first Geocache (Dad found yesterday’s one!)

2nd in the day. Loving this!

A quick find walking home from dinner

tftc! very close and local. Nice to see some more pop up around my area

The hide was a little different from what I expected. But, the container wasn’t!!!

TFTC.

Beware of angry troll at printer shop. Do not Park there!

Found

We are having no luck

Well that was a bit trickier than your usual rinsemesocks hide.
I checked for the most frequently used type of location except there weren't any accessible. Looking at the GZ area there were now dozens of possibilities so it was a systematic touch and look method of attack until I was in a position to actually see the cache.
Having had a bad experience with this method of cache placement at Lewisham it was carefully does it to retrieve and replace the cache.
All good, no accidents this time!

With the scribing done I headed down the street for a history lesson.

TFTC #2249

Pretty easy and fun tftc

nice and quiet here while the school is in class. Found quickly, and only had to wait for a coupe of muggles to walk but before replacing.
Thanks for the cache.

Searched everywhere in the bridge we could think of. Couldn’t find.

After a month in far flung lands, I have returned hungry for those critters who, disguised as mint tins, hang out near bridges causing mischief and mayhem.

So today, eschewing running horses, gentlemen in top hats and ladies in fascinators - I went on the hunt for a feral brownie, dwarf, elf, faerie (also faery), fay, gnome, goblin, gremlin, hobgoblin, kobold, leprechaun, pixie (also pixy), puck, sprite, fairy .... ok, TROLL. And pwn'd its sorry rear end.

Thank you rinsemesocks for this merriment.

-- Find #2 --
found cache with help from hefferman while little bastards flooded out from the gates of hell

Nice to walk around the neighbourhood and see the light rail pass underneath. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek

A quick find while in the area.

Easy find, watch out for the grumpy troll who works at the printing place, don’t park there!

A classic RMS cache, expectations met. But sorry to say, this log is very damp and only just hanging together. Back of log sheet in use already.

First timers here - we've looked everywhere on this bridge

Found with harrison

A quick find this morning while out in Dulwich Hill with the geo kiddies.

We stopped here so geoboy could do some train spotting and while he watched I made the grab from a usual spot. Cache is in good condition, plenty of room on the log. TNLNSL. Now off for a trip on the light rail into the city.

Thanks for the cache rinsemesocks.
Find #155

TFTC

Out walking the dogs and stopped for this quick bridge cache. Thanks

Helping a mate move nearby, I saw the opportunity to grab a cache whilst doing a lunch run.
A quick walk whilst we waited for our lunch to be made and a fortunate quick find.
Unfortunately not in my own vehicle so I was without a writing implement. Photo of log attached.
Tftc.

Yeah

A lovely day to be out and about - caching. Easy find, TFTC.

Deliverying cookies and thought I'd have a stroll. Tftc!

????

A quick park and grab for this one. TFTC rinsemesocks.

Nice quick easy find

Nice quick find TFTC

Took a slight deviation from my normal route home from work today, after a morning shift, to grab some caches around the Dulwich Hill and Lewisham areas. This was the 1st of 7 finds for the afternoon.

Parked the geomobile close to the cache location, in Hercules Street, then wandered up to GZ for a nice quick find. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. TFTC rinsemesocks.

Find #1908

Quick find.

Nice ine

Found it

Thanks geobro

Thank goodness we did not drop it. Thanks

Nice easy cache right around the corner from my house so fun to get it!

Careful not to drop it. It would be a tough retrieval. Tftc

Nice quick find. TFTC!!

Found it, TFTC

Don't drop it

Blended in with the metal framing.
Pretty easy though.

Nice and easy find. Feeling satisfied.

Found with fdbtdk

No schoolies around late on a Sunday afternoon. Mr Ozjeeper had a quick, easy find. Don't Trolls live underneath their bridges anymore?

First easy find of the day

With AWTYOW now only 3 away from her 600 milestone, she quickly spotted this one. TFTC

Came into focus when I stepped back to think. TFTC

Quick park and grab
tftc

Awesome Geocache.

Heeeiiit

The Light Rail departs at the end of my street and the Dulwich Grove station is very close to this cache so I hopped onboard.

There was a steady stream of muggles today. I spotted the cache and waited for a break so that I could make a grab.....same in reverse for the replacement.

Another bridge and another mint tin ticked off

Tftc

Found with Jaybeem! Quick and easy, TFTH

Tftc. Quick park and grab, thanks.

Found in 2 seconds but then mate dropped cache off the bridge which then he climbed the fence at got it

Really easy find, Friend dropped it under the bridge and had to climb and get it, he also took a shit in a bag and put it on the grass with a love note to Harry Styles on it.

20/6/17. 11:14 AM. Cache #5130.
3rd of 4 today - Leichhardt, Marrickville, Dulwich Hill & Denistone East.

Started off the morning with a trio of RMS caches in the Inner West, including 2 puzzle solves. I came to this one after finding "Henson Park Code" (finally!).

I parked about 150m north east of GZ and on my walk over came across an odd statue sitting in the park. As I got closer, I saw that it was none other than the late Chris Cornell of Soundgarden / Temple of the Dog / Audioslave fame. I left Chris and continued towards the cache.

At first look of this troll's bridge, I thought there were potentially lots of hidey holes, although feeling around just ended up with the usual dirty hand. I stepped back to appraise things from a distance and soon spotted it. SL and replaced.

Now I had to head back to get my daughter to a medical appointment. I wanted a 4th for today, but would have to wait until my daughter was back at school again. And the only options were a long way east, or south, or west. I was really hoping that the frog would do some publishing today, something close to home. And you know what? He came through - enter "Along the road". (JFTF, too). TFTC.

Took a 'long cut' on the way to an event at Olympic Park to convert this into a smiley.
