With a number of DNF logs and no response from the CO to a Needs Maintenance log dated 18/4/20, it's time to bring the cache to the attention of a Reviewer to determine its future.
Out and about today with Smurfyguy and Calypso62.
We search for this one and just could not find it.
After reading some logs, it looks like it may have gone missing.

Out with Smurfyguy and Rama497 today heading for the Lego shop at Broadway. With three pairs of eyes looking, no cache was found.
Considering the size of the cache and the obvious spots where it could be I think it could be gone
This one is definitely gone. Between the clue, photos and past posts it obvious where it should be. And last post says it was in a scooter handle? Something is definitely a miss with this
My first find!!!! Was so so so exciting. I took pictures and everything. So so excited about this new geocaching hobby!!
I have a 3 month sabbatical mostly traveling around the planet. My goal is to find and log 1000 caches. Australias Perth and Sidney are my second and third stops, this is the first visit to Australia for me since it is far away from Switzerland. Next station will be New Zealand. This is my sabbatical-cache #183.
Nothing to see here. Judging by the previous comments it might need maintenance.
I was in Sydney this morning collecting info for a lab cache I'm building and as one does, I took the opportunity while I was there to grab a few smilies. This one was a straightforward find thanks to the much appreciated hint ... but as others have noted, only the log book is there, its container has obviously gone walkabout. I had an enjoyable wander through Ultimo afterwards ... it has certainly changed a lot in recent years.
Thanks for the hide drhusk.

Out and about seeing the sights and walked past this location. Hint was spot on so quick find. No cover on the log book but dry today so all good. Not sure how long condition will remain good though! Tftc

My final day in Sydney before heading up the East Coast and then to Melbourne. I was on my way to the swimming pool with GeoMum, when we stopped to find this cache. I've walked passed this spot many times, but never noticed there was a cache here!
The hint confused me... "firth"? Was that first, forth or fifth? Anyway I search the whole area and eventually found the cache. Well, I found the logbook, anyhow. No container at GZ. A good place to hide a cache, TFTC.

69th cache found in New South Wales City of Sydney.

A rather ‘naked’ find in the urban jungle. I haven’t visited anywhere else where a hide like this would last long. My likely last Aus find for a while. Thanks Sydney; you’ve been a blast.
Thanks drhusk

In the CBD today for some business.....and maybe a couple of caches
Good place because pretty well shielded here. No container...not sure if that is meant to be. Signed the log and put back where found. TFTC drhusk.

First find of the day on an early morning caching run before flying to Norfolk Island.
Quick and easy find here although there is no container just a logbook. Think it'll last tho tftc
Once I found the GZ it was a quick find amongst the muggles, the worst part was putting it back.
Easy find thanks to a really useful hint. However, there was only a loogbok (although in good condition). Not quite sure, whether also a container was intended or not... TFTC!
Hopped off the train halfway home from work for some geocaching. Clever hide here hidden exactly as described with oblivious muggles on the footpath and down below inside. SL TFTC Cheers.... Gaztek
A couple of days working in Sydney with some time for caching outside working hours.
This was the first of the trip and my 2,500th find overall. Yay!!
A nice and easy find, like pretty much all of them, which is really quite a good thing when there are SO many muggles around. Mind you, big city anonymity helps as nobody really cares about you or what you are doing. TFTC

Squirrel! I am one of the 30odd cachers and i am visiting from Tennessee , with muggles, and friends traveling to New Zealand and Australia. We signed or stamped the logs as NZGA2019 aka New Zealand Geocaching Adventure 2019. It is a 25 day adventure through 9 different cities between the two countries.
all is good, so cache on!

We are having a grand time sightseeing in this beautiful part of the world, caching along the way. Our group stamps logs NZGA2019, which stands for New Zealand Geocaching Adventure 2019. We represent Puerto Rico, Canada, and my home, the USA. Sydney is fascinating!
I am traveling with a group called New Zealand/Australia Geocaching Adventure 2019. We are from all over the USA and Canada.

I am visiting from Beautiful British Columbia, Canada along with others from Canada, the USA, and Puerto Rico. Our cruise has now ended and we are spending a few days in the Sydney area.

Caching your beautiful country with the NZGA 2019 group. Life and coaching were great except for the smoke. So sorry you have had this devastation to your country.
I am visiting from Rhode Island with a large group (31) of Geocachers from USA, Canada, and Puerto Rico. We will be signing as NZGA 2019 (New Zealand Geocaching Adventure 2019) to save room on the logs. We are out caching on this beautiful day in your wonderful country. If answers or pictures are required one if us will send them soon. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache!
I am traveling with 32 other people, most of whom are geocachers. We are from all over the US, Canada and Puerto Rico. We are signing logs NZGA2019 (New Zealand Geocaching Adventure, even though we are now in Australia ). This is our first day in Sydney. GPS kept on taking us from one side of the road to the other but we finally found it.

Greetings from St Louis, MO. Traveling with other geocachers from the USA, Canada and Puerto Rico. After we checked into the hotel we went out and grabbed a few caches. Signed the log NZGA2019. TFTC
Find #: 2,217
Companions: None
Muggles: Yep
Weather: Hot spring morning
Cache condition: Only the logbook present
I decided to go for a jog on a day that later got to 37C (but was only low 20s when I ran), and this seemed a reasonable destination, with most of the route off-road (e.g. Darling Harbour). Once at GZ the detailed hint allowed me to make a quick find - what _did_ happen to the missing log pages? TNLNSL TFTC

#6698 (2 of 3 today)
Got out late morning for a few caches today. Decided to hit an area I haven't been to for a while - meaning some new caches have moved in.
Went for three - basically determined by the free 2 hour parking at Broadway and the need to grab some lunch and check a few shops.
Got out of the parking station with about 3 minutes to go. Well timed.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Well, the second cache today where GPS is pretty useless. It had me well away from GZ, while the hint & photos were much more useful.
After a few minutes waiting for gaps in which to search I made the grab. Hmmm. Well I have a log but no cache container. Is that right?
Completed signing duties - definitely log pages missing here - and then a flood of muggles. Decided to take it for a short walk to my next find, before replacing on a walk past.

After just making in time for the end of the happy hour at Killiney's, we had some time to kill before dinner and decided to get a few caches. Thank for the no-frills hide and the detailed hint.
First cache tonight while trying to build an appetite for dinner.
After having a snack at Killiney Kopitiam, we made the short walk to find this unique container.
Thanks for the hide and cache in such a busy part of town

Greetings from Hong Kong!
Have a trip to Australia. Of course I seize some chances to find some caches along the places we visited.
This is the 9th of 12 caches found.
It is already very late when we arrive hotel, yet we have to buy something in the supermarket, and I would also like to find at least one cache every day in this trip, so as to record where I have been. so we try to find this cache which is the one closest to our hotel.[:p]
I was prepared to have a DNF according to the recent logs, but fortunately, I follow the hints given and find the cache (just the logbook in fact) right away!
The buildings in Australia are interesting.
TFTCSL!

Looked for a while in the area described by the hint but DNF. Maybe missing. TFTC!
Walked past after class trying to find it in the break of muggles. Tried a few nooks and crannies but no luck. Will try again another day

Catching up with a friend in the city and what better use of time than to find a few caches beforehand. With a very generous hint, cache was quickly in hand (but seems to be missing a few log pages). Hope the sticky tape holds...

Welcome to Sydney. This was my first Cache in this lovely town. Thanks for hiding.
Well that's quite a brazen city cache! Thanks to an extremely accurate hint it was a quick CIH. Muggles galore but none the wiser on this one. GPS has GZ further away but I'm blaming the buildings. TFTC
Visiting on a 2-week vacation from Chicago, Dawn and I had a little free time on our last day in Sydney for "just a couple" more. This one was right by our hotel, and we missed it the other day, but had no trouble with the find today. Mahalo for adding to the fun! TFTC!!
A quick find under the cover of darkness with the generous hint taking us straight to the cache

Great little hide and I needed the hint as GPS didn’t like all the buildings TFTC
This cache will be temporarily replaced. Recent rain made me think there must be a better way of doing this
When the torrential rain of the last few days cleared I headed into the city for a few small jobs, including buying a Christmas gift, which I'm very pleased with!
Finding the cache was the next task.
Some photos confirmed I was in the right spot so I stood for a couple of minutes watching the passing muggle traffic. Once I'd established the pattern the helpful hint made for a quick find in a break in the passers by. SL, interesting date, 19-9-19, and replaced where found.
The logbook no longer looks like some of the photos. It seems some of it has been removed.
