Muggled! Not really surprised as the area has changed a fair bit with growth of the trees... Time for a new container!

Headed out today after work to grab a cache for the day, and was quite surprised by the dog area here. Even more surprising was finding the cache where it was. Surprised that a doggo hasn’t come across it.

Gratias The Smodges

Stacked my bike on the way there but it was pretty cool

Nice little find

Found

I got it

Easy!

Found

Found the cache didn’t pick it up as there is a paper wasp nest next to it

Fantastic, thank you. Nice safe spot.

In Orange for a short while to see my partner's family. A lovely place and we enjoyed the walk to find this Cache! Looks like it now has some extra layers of protection from the elements.

TFTF!

Log replaced, double bagged to try and keep out the weather.

All fixed, replaced log - double bagged against the weather. Cache on!

----------

Hi there The Smodges,

It looks like this cache might need some attention, as one or more seekers have indicated there is an issue. The cache has been temporarily disabled, so as to remove it from search listings and discourage people from visiting this location until the issues/s with this cache can be addressed.

**You do need to respond in some way within 14 days, so others know you are on top of it, as well as indicating exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication scuttle this listing.**

#What should you do now:-#
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-

- **Check On The Cache:-** Visit the cache and repair and/or replace or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked and [**ENABLE your cache**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ). Then sit back and wait for the logs of praise to roll in.

- **Place A Write Note Log::-** Reviewers are not mind readers (unfortunately), so without your note on the cache page explaining that the site works are on-going, you have been in hospital, the area is in flood, or some other reason that has prevented attending to the cache, they can't tell what is going on.
So please just post a note to the page (within 14 days) and when a Reviewer next looks at the listing, all will be fine for a little bit longer.
**Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. If you have a long term unavailable cache (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 4 to 6 weeks, so as to keep everyone up to speed.**

- **Adopt/Archive:-** If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**Archive it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56), so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when a Reviewer next looks at the cache page, it is likely that they will, unfortunately, have to de-list (Archive) on the basis that it has been abandoned.

Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

**JUST A TIP:-** Have you checked out the Geocaching Dash Board designed to assist a Cache Owner in managing the caches they own? Have a read about it [**HERE.**](https://www.geocaching.com/blog/2020/07/welcome-to-the-cache-owner-dashboard/?newsletter=PM) You will find your very own dash board [**HERE**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/owner?utm_source=geocaching&utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=COD).

Thanks for your cooperation,

Found today. Easy find. Log and everything is all very wet!

Bathurst trip October 2022. Day 2. I heard there was to be a Community Celebration Event in Bathurst on Tuesday, so I planned on a two day camping caching trip to join in. Rain threatened both days but only fell a few times, except overnight when it seemed to rain all night. The trip was Canberra, Cowra, Bathurst, Millthorpe, Orange, Bathurst and home again via Cowra. I managed lots of caches and enjoyed the trip away.

With no one on the dog park, I was quickly able to zoom into the cache location. The cache is still very wet. Not a surprise with all the rain.

Thanks for the cache The Smodges

Council built a new fence, so old GZ is not easily accessible

Awesome hiding spot

Thanks little geo man.

Thanks for our first geocache find!!

A nice stroll through the park to this secret little hideaway, no storm troopers in sight but as always we are alert!
May the force be with you

I found it. It wasn't hard I forgot a pen so I couldn't write my log in it

Lake Cargelligo - Orange
Staying at Orange for 2 nights camped at the showgrounds.
Our 1st day was just caching in the town region. This is always a good way to visit your area.
Thankyou The Smodges for placing this cache.

Thanks

Gotcha!

Ps. Not a good spot for people with their hair in a bun. It gets caught in the trees

All good besides getting hair caught on tees lol

Thanks for the cache, all looks to be in good condition.

Found it

Got em tftc

Took a while to find the post but got there in the end

This is my first ever geocache and it was so fun!
Thanks for putting one out here!

Brought our puppies to help, took a bit but found it!

Magic cave see we
He was five but now he’s eight
Finders shall we be

Thank you, Geoson for sharing this cool spot with us!!!! Improviser On The Go was small enough to fit in the cave! Dr. Strange brought the pen, but was too tall to immerse himself.

Found it. Cool.

Found it!

Good spot

awesome spot!

Our first find! So excited!

Was a lot of fun

????

TFTC, Didn't bring a pencil so have decided to keep my distance. But it is there at the geo-cords

Found it. Wet inside

After a thorough search of many caves, located a bit far from the gps location and stickers strewn all around. Have relocated to gps location/hint with stickers safely back inside. Tftc GeoSon!

Found it not quite where it was supposed to be…hopefully it is now back in the ‘cave’!

Thanks GeoSon, we had a great time finding our first geocache!

A little boggy at the main entrance but we found a dryer option for the way out. A very good hiding spot - the app got a little confused so we went around in circles a few times once in the gate. We had lots of fun. GeoSon we left you some extra swaps as this was our try at GeoCaching and we had such a good time.

Very good hiding spot but muddy after the rain

Found while on a driving holiday from Brisbane

Quick find with Sophiescout and aussiepusckaks this morning on our return to Canberra. TFTC

Found with Jemalong&family and Aussiepuschaks TFTC

Found with Sophiescout and Jemalong and family as we leave Orange for another day. TFTC

Cache 7572 on 29 May 2021.

Here in beautiful Orange from the ACT to spend a long weekend with some family members and taste some of the local wines. Might as well grab a few caches while I am in the area I guess, would be rude not to!

Quick find , cache in good order.

Thanks The Smodges for the cache and the fun!

Nice find thanks

Nice place for dogs

Tftc GeoKid. I took my own geokids to find it and let them lead the way. It was a nice walk through from Cargo Rd.
Took some swag, left some swag.

Thank you that was a fun place to hide

Had a little play while here

Good find for our birthday cacher!

What does a geocaching orienteerer do with a free morning? Goes geocaching of course. The Duntryleague series was the first of the chosen caches and it was an enjoyable walk with a variety of hides to keep the mind ticking over.

The cache name had me intrigued so a visit was in order. I can see how a 5yo would see this area as a cave.

Thanks for the cache The Smodges.

Thank you. Was really fun and adventurous.

Thanks s

Found it

Found with Joshwyatt83, Blayke04, ArmyBrats4

Found with kelr0cks and armybrats4. Found by brat 4

You forgot to add a key word- Spikey

Well done turtle the smell of pines very spiky

Needed a break to stretch my legs so a trip to a wee cave was in order. TFTC

#470. A nice quick find with meals 5 to earn the last day of 2020 souvenir. TFTC!

Found it. Kids loved it

The plants scratched me, I feel dino-sore

I got attacked by bushes but it was found

Thanks for the cache, didn’t realise this area was a dog off leash spot! I initially thought it was private property but the gate has a sign on it

Hola! We left a little message with Em. We liked the little dinosaur

Well I was expecting a deep dark whole but this will do, and I wasn't probably dressed for a cave anyway, container's all good, now dinners calling

Easy

Got it. Kids tracked it down

Worth braving the rain and nosey neighbour

Great hide, took a little bit too find asking the trees, watch out for the fencing bit overall great find!! Couple little treasures in the as well

Found very clever
