Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the geocache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

Didn't find

Tried to look with the photos but no luck

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Our 2nd DNF today
From the photos, we found what looked like the broken cache container on the car park level, and after 4 previous DNF's, it's probably time for a check...

We had a good look around, but with no luck..

DNF, found the spot using other cacher’s photos but couldn’t find the cache

Hmmmmm - shame.

Searched for a looong time but after reading logs my guess is that it has fallen down. There was alot of dead leaves and vines so I wasn’t able to search through it all.

Found it. TFTC!

Random geocaching on a visit from Perth TFTC

We attempted this one a few weeks ago however an intense storm made it impossible to search. Glad we came back in the sunshine, what a cool spot. Would have loved to have seen the railway in action back it’s it prime. TFTC

A fun find!

Smart spot

Be prepared for the rain!!! Awesome spot with a clever concept.

This geocacher reported that the logbook is full.

Found on Sunday caching day. Log book full. TFTC SL

Quick and easy find.

Plenty of muggles around here... just channelled my inner Harry Potter "Accio"! And just like magic this Cache was in our reach!

Found it but no room to right on the log

Found, no pen still tftc

TFTC

Quick find and sign TFTC

Tricky!

Easy find. Great clues and hiding spot

Good one.

The mum of the 2 kid newbies found this one! We were here for a quick visit and had a great time showing the Atherton mob what GC was all about. A fairly easy find. TFTC!

We're lucky to have kept a few caches to find on special days in our homezone, this was one of them. It was actually a much easier find than we expected. Happy international geocaching day everyone.

Good hide.

Quick easy find

Lucky wifey looked down, cache had fallen to ground, put back according coordinates, tftc.

2nd cache find today. I did have to jump down and s t r e t c h my body to get back up. Found cache lying on the ground. Love your cache idea. Replaced back at gz. It can now be reached from carpark. Tftc

Very sneaky little cache found after our Crystal Caves adventure TFTC

Nice hide, quick find
TFTC

Great hiding place

Cool hiding place

Easy find

A fleeting visit Atherton once again before we head south. We love this area.
Seeing this one was up and in action again, We decided to make a detour on our way back to base camp and come in for the surge.
Who doesn’t like platform 9 3/4, or 9 1/4?
Like any Harry Potter fan, we put our heads down and just ran to GZ. And of course that yielded results.
Thanks Arachnauts!

Finally found this after several attempts. TFTC.

Finally got around to doing some maintenance- cache replaced & good to go

Guys this was super good if you look hard enough you will find it I put some stuff in there so the other people can find it and than you geocash thanks alot

Decided to do the Atherton Tablelands today during our week in Cairns. With so many recent DNF's we decided not to waste any time looking. Might be worth checking out.

Great Northern escape 2022 Day 45. Cooktown to Atherton travel day. I headed off after packing up in the rain and getting quite wet, but of course as I got a bit out of town it stopped raining. The Black mountain rocks looked very broody in the mist, and I dove straight past Lakeland. A quick stop in Mount Molloy and on past Mareeba. At last as I reached Tolga there was some caching to do. I moved onto Atherton and set up camp in a town van park and went out for a few more in the late afternoon. A longer day than I have had for a bit now.

A few holes and a few objects, but I did not managed to find anything except a few wasps, which 'just' missed me.

Thanks.

Must have been taken

Could not find

No find but stung very badly and painfully when stick my fingers up the holes.

Sadly not today

Found it

couldn’t find it, wondering if it is still there

Looked for a while, too hard for us

Reinstated. The location has been a bit damaged in the interim so the cache is not totally secure so please handle with care until it can be fully fixed. Happy caching

Needs to be checked on

Don't know

Looked high and looked low. No go for us today.

We left Mission Beach for a day around the Tablelands before heading to the Undara Lava Tubes.

While the family visited the Crystal Caves I had 90 minutes to do my own exploring.

Not sure if this one is still in place after reading the previous two logs. If it is, it was too pod for me today.

Thanks Arachnauts for creating and placing this for us to enjoy.

Couldn’t find this one. Very disappointed. From reading the comments and looking at the photos think we might have looked in the roght place but it wasn’t there?

Wow that was hard took over an hour to find but was still fun

Grey nomads, currently spending time caching in far north Queensland. We have had enough of Cairns and hankering to get back on the road again. Finally up on the tablelands, caching in and around.

Might be missing, photo to be sent to Arachnauts before logging my visit. Message back from CO has been received giving me permission to log this as a find. Definately has been muggles again apparently.

Once Again a good hiding spot guys

Tricky! Had actually come away from its location but once we figured out what we were looking for we found it.

Found with gxybuddy #2 for our Atherton Tablelands tour. TFTC ️

TFTC found with LouLouRu14

DNF- try another day!

Bloody hell found it!!

Nice spot some water has gotten into the cache over years TFTC

TFTC quick find short walk to access

Has a look around then checked activity with 2 dnfs,actually.found it on the ground and put back in a logical hiding spot at ground zero

DNF

No luck with this one

Nice easy find, TFTC.

Nice find TFTC

Great unique cache!! Nice location next to the superb local IGA and a bike course for kids (pity we didnt have the bike with us). Couldnt sign as our pen went on strike in the rain, please see pic attached. TFTC

No pen so photo for log. Tftc.

We couldn’t find it. Either we are really dumb or it’s been moved. Probably dumb.

TFTC! Really epic cache

Bringing my well-established passion for Harry Potter together with my new-found passion for caching, TFTC!

Pretty easy
Kk

wow that was funny to find

TFTC. Clever hide

Tftc, very clever, shame about the train line.

Found tonight nice easy find tftc

??

Found! Love the idea of the cache

Have a favorite point for originality and great use of the environment.
1st time to the tablelands where it hasn't rained, fingers crossed it continues for next few days whilst we chase

Found with orth71 on a trip from Townsville to Tablelands.
Was intrigued given no train tracks evident.
Nice use of surroundings with some local art works for the cultured at heart.
TFTC

What a neat cache and loved the name of it. Thanks to the hint it was a quick find tftc fav pt dropped

2 days in Atherton, trying to get some good sunny weather before heading further west. Not so unfortunately, got wet a couple of times grabbing the caches.

Currently no access from IGA car park, best alternative is from Vernon St

Brilliant. Thanks

Checked cache, still there

Could not find it.

Quick find but not where was supposed to be, the cache was inserted back to front and sitting on the bottom of the receptacle

TFTC

We drove and walked to here, unsure why as it was just around the corner from our park but we did a town trip anyway to get our park. Didn't find our friend who had gone in search of coffee but the tasscrays did show up as we strolled along.
they stopped to search a likely area but we went on the GZ where ratdog made the find.
On holidays with Ratdog12, TMac61 and Rights21

Great chase
