###Cache Owner Action Needed###
This cache has been brought to my attention as likely to be missing.
After a string of successful Finds, it has now had a string of DNFs. I agree that this certainly suggests that something has happened at the cache location which requires investigation by the CO.
I am going to Disable it, and I'll check back in 4 weeks to see if either
- the CO has checked or rectified the apparent problem
- the CO has communicated when action will be taken
If the CO has not taken either of these actions, then regrettably the cache will be archived.
The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.
Thank you

Dnf, with, Angus who is a very competent geocacher, her 3rd attempt to locate cache.
No idea... so many places to look. Had a nice walk though. Thanks- will try again.
Looked for about 10mins but couldn’t find it! We were pushed for time so couldn’t keep looking
Out for a good bike ride today, stopped and searched for what was about 15 minutes before I realised the cache was right where I left my bike. TFTC
Caching in the area we picked up a few caches and this was one of them.
Cache and contents were in good condition.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Went for a walk with mum and easily found this cache i took some swag & put some in it 
I must be out of practice for some reason I just could not find this one at first.
It is a lovely area to walk in especially with our new geopup.
This cache was hunted, tagged and released by activehunters tftc.

Found this and a plastic bottle, didn't see the "obvious" cache, maybe it's time for new glasses..
Went for a walk today to find a geocache for international geocaching day 2019 found it!
found it!Enjoyed the lovely walk on a Sunday afternoon to the area where we hadn't been before.. Once there the cache was quickly discovered......
Not as many muggles today saw a quick snatch and grab on the second try.. Tftc
We haven't cached in this area for some time. So we enjoyed our walk along the bank of the river, with quite a deal of bird life to entertain us. Once near GZ we started to look for the cache. It took a few minutes to find as our GPS wanted us on the muddy banks of the river and we had to widen the search area. After a few minutes we located the cache in a sensible hide for the area but it was 12m from the published coordinates. The card used as a logbook was damp and needs better protection - in fact, a more substantial logbook would be a real improvement. Thanks Thor8008 for the cache.
Having seen this one appear on the map a little while ago, it has been on my list to turn to a smiley. Then, having a new phone, I took the opportunity today, I pedaled out on the geo-cycle to see if the GPS functioned better than my last one. It does! Looking forward to more impromptu finds now that I have a useful tool that will travel with me most of the time. I am hoping that the winter floods don't carry this one away. TFTC Thor8008
After being on the mainland for several months a few new caches popped up around Launceston, today I decided I would take the dog for a walk and collect of them. First one I walked and stopped by to get the required info for the multi at the annexe theatre which I collected on my way back home and the other was along the river. Both caches were easily found on a nice day, lots of people out and about made it a little tricky to retrieve the multi,
Both caches are all good.
Thanks for the cache

Thanks for the cache
A little time on my hands with a few errands to do about town prior to picking up Cat from school. Managed a quick stop to track down this well hidden little cache.. thanks..!!
As this cache was definitely there I was going to go back to find it...and find it I did, oh, so easy...the cache was NOT there when I looked the other day and had to log a DNF. I have no idea how it got back there but I am glad to now log this cache as found. TFTC.
Seeing this cache had 2 experienced cachers log DNF’s I went into this one thinking maybe it’s gone missing or it’s harder than it looks. I made the walk into the GZ this evening not holding my breath for a find. I arrived at the GZ, and before did even started searching I’d found the container. Not sure how anyone could have missed it, it was pretty exposed. The log was damp inside the container, but I could still sign it ok, and claim a surprising first to find.

I will log a first to not find, this one had me looking and looking but I can have a cache staring me in the face and I still won't see it...I will be back again soon. Thanks for getting me along this bit of track, I have been meaning to do it for some time and now I have a challenge to see where it goes.
