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 30 days so I don't archive the listing for non-communication.

Out geocaching with my boys for the day ( _Kade_ & _Troy_ ) Perfect activity for school holidays & a nice cool day to do it. We crawled around all over the place & sadly couldn’t find it boys were very disappointed.
Sorry but we didn’t find the cache although I think it would be epic. Although again TFTC
Not this time. A lot of overgrown shrubs and weeds which may make this difficult to find. Will be back...
On my rounds tonight, I stumble upon this one without even looking at the hint
Very cool spot!
Very cool spot!
I found it! Thank you for adding some fun to my daily walk. I need to come back and put something in the box
On my small cache round today I also stopped at this box.
Thank you

Thank you

In the valley between the two rocks, go down and it should be on the right. It is like a lunch box container.
Lovely spot that I feel I have been to before hunting geocache. Did the legals and replaced as found. TFTCM

My fifth and final cache of the day.
Its 10:30 and is way to hot and humid to do more than sit in the shade drinking something cold.
I made a quick find at the GZ thanks to the generous hint and good coords.
The container is in good condition and the log is dry.
Thanks.

great spot bell birds an old snake skin. great cache. picked up a couple of trackables and left some toys.
TFTC Thank you for hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity.
Clue helpful and accurate but think terrain could be a little higher depending on agility, especially with the amount of rubbish dumped nearby.
Heaps of swag for young girls! Having a great day caching while visiting Sydney. Tftc!
Out today for a few local ones that I missed or have gone down since I was out this way last. 6 for the day. TFTC
Today I headed out to Dural for the Amateur Radio NSW (HAM Radio) bi-monthly Trash & Treasure sale at Quarry Road and, after a fun filled morning of HAM radio junk scrounging and a nice BBQ lunch with lots of friendly chit chat, it was time to get caching and collect enough caches to enable us to complete the Mystery at the Museum cache challenge with the collected jewels safely returned to the vault. I had packed the folding bike into the geomobile and planned a "ride & grab" caching raid along the Windsor Road cache trail, and maybe a few extras around the Rouse Hill area, to give us the needed minimum of 23 finds. This was the 25th of 27 finds, and 4 DNF's, for the day.
After completing a nearby Wherigo cache that we had started a bit over a month ago while visiting Rouse Hill on the new Metro train, but whose final GZ cache container turned out to be too far away from the puzzle for us to walk to on that day, I next came to this one. Parked the geomobile close to the cache location, in Greensborough Avenue, and then ducked down into the valley for a nice quick find. Signed the unusual logbook, discovered a TB, TNLN, and then replaced as found. TFTC chops133.

Out to continue the caching streak. Arrived here at a very quiet time. Cache was quickly found. log was signed and we looked through the lovely lot of stash for the kids. Thanks to chops133 for hiding this cache.
Came along here today and with having the hint in mind, it was clear straight away where we needed to look form this one. It was found quickly and easily and was found to have a lot of goodies for swapping. Another name was added to the list of finders and all was then put back in its hiding place. Many thanks go to chops133 for putting this cache into play.
Super fun, checking all of the rocks, make sure you look underneath and between every rock, you’ll be rewarded with a big stash of cache
While driving to Rouse Hill shops we made a detour to find this cache. The cache was found quickly and easily after arriving at GZ. The log book was signed and then the cache was replaced as found. Thank you chops133 for placing this cache.
This cache was a really nice hide, good to end our day with an adventure down the valley, I dropped a TB that we picked up at the Clearwaters Mega in Queanbeyan, TNSL TFTC.
This one was a good size cache so we dropped off some S.W.A.G (stuff we all get.) We left a few things in this one. Dad spotted it and I made the grab. TFTC
Thanks for a lovely little hide. We topped up the box with a handful of SWAG. TNSL TFTC
OCW marj01 around Rouse Hill, Annangrove and Kenthurst. After a dnf on a previous cache we were back on track here. TFTC chops133.
This was a quick park and grab on my way into Rouse Hill shopping precinct. Signed the log and grabbed the TB before replacing as found. tftc
Great spot! Left a trackable. Be careful climbing down here, there is a lot of glass around! SL TFTC!!
Parked in Oakmont Way and strolled down to GZ. CIH within seconds. Loved the swag. Great cache, thanks Ella and chops133!
Left Port Macquarie heading south to the Mega event At Canberra.
Our 3rd stop on the way at the Richmond club.
.Today after visiting the parklea Markets we stopped to find a few caches on the way home.

3rd and final find for the day, well early morning - its too hot out here!
This was an interesting area - passing commercial places not very far away, then suburbia and on the other side of the street the country and then the bush.
The cache hide was in a safe location, dry and away from muggle eyes, a good sized well stocked container and a fun logbook.
I liked it all a lot! Well done, Ella!
A favourite point for your work.

I was wearing thongs and after the rain it seemed not such a great idea getting to GZ. In the end it was appropriate footwear. See photo.
#2559 went on a trip to Singleton and Maitland to get some GA moveables along the way. This was one of the caches I stopped at on a really hot day, and it passed 40 at 10 am. Had foreboding helicopters going on overhead and a major accident which shut the road on the way home
This was the first cache that I went it was still bearable except the spiders webs I walked into
With cache in hand we signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for bringing me to the area and thanks for placing the cache chops133

Driving out to Kellyville Ridge to collect son from his work. Did think about the FTF but the heat spoiled that and chose to stay indoors until called upon.
Really nice hide Ella, lovely GZ, even skull inside the cave in which appeared to me as a small cat’s skull, thanks for the smiley chops133
