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.

Not at the listed coordinates. Is within 161m of another hide. D/T rating is off as it’s a tree climb.
Needs archiving.

Could not find this one today.
Was up there and later confirmed with the only finder

Needing a daily find I stopped by before work to grab this one.
Thanks to the hint I was able to spy the hide 35m away from the listed coordinates And then thanks to a broken branch nearby I was able to make the climb.
Given all that I’d say this is more like a D3T3.
Picked up the TB.
Thanks for the hide.

Teamwork? Not this time. Used what was at hand this time of night, scaled to where i had to climb to, checked out the big green cache guardian and the gi-ant, checked on the TB and signed the log.
I did watch the first to find search for this, the day she found it, me with a ladder on board the back of my ute. She went from tree to tree from the posted coords and did well managing to get the bottle down, then threw it back up. She didn’t need teamwork either and i was after a daily instead of a ftf. Wondered why she never logged it immediately and had a laugh when Debomb had the sob story afterwards. Nice first hide boys. Terrain rating wasn’t accurate and the coords were out but still a fun time to be had. Cheers

Hard find people must of moved becuase I had to really climb up the tree to find it so I put it in a slightly easier spot in the same spot though

I lifted my 5yr old daughter into the hidey spot to retrieve the geocache today... I knew where it was (although it has moved slightly, you can no longer see it from the ground) & she was stoked to see it for herself. Left lots of SWAG. Both geo-munchkins Happy danced today!! Signed log. RAF.

I got boosted up the tree by my mum skatierocks because she already knew where it was. I just needed to get it for us to sign the log. I was sitting on her shoulders then standing on her shoulders then she lifted me up with her long arms. I spotted the cache & got up to get it. My little sister AmazingGracieGrace gave me a high five when I got down with mums help & we filled this geocache up with SWAG. Then I put it back where I got it from. “It was a fun to find this cache up a tree”

TFTC My sister got this one for us with mums help & I danced around the trees keeping an eye out for muggles for my mum. There was no SWAG, so we put lots in for everyone.
I found it up a tree but I could not climb
Got a mate to climb the tree (needs at least 2 people) look at description for clues

Spotted the cache after a quick glance. Too many muggles around at GZ this afternoon (a bunch of adults) at the picnic table close by. There’s no way this cache is a 1.0/1.5. It requires a TOTT &/or ability to climb a tree.
TFTC. Heard on the grapevine about this one from good ol bro and his girl so we did a sneaky quick grab. Co-ords were a lil bit out for us. Way to go.
OMG STF ( Second To Find). We have been set up by my own sister and niece Team Bombas! (Loose Lips Sink Ship). This is how the story unfolded. We were just about to leave from the tablelands this morning and happened to mention as we drove out to Team Bombas that some new caches had been placed in the Ville and we would try and nab one on our way home to the Burdekin. After watching these three caches we noticed by the time we reached the Ville there was only one FTF still available. After quickly parking our vehicle and scouting the area the search began. This is a very very busy area at this time of the day with people picnicing, taking photo and walking their dogs. But we were not going to let this stop us, as we were determined to get an FTF even if it meant waiting until midnight. So we scoped out what we thought were the two trees in question for ages where our coordinates had lead us, while we waited for the crowds to die down. Once there was a lot less traffic we ramped up the search but we still could not see a cache from the ground. After a gut feel made us look further a field due to the comments from skatierocks. We then located a different pair of trees and honed in on the location which was a distance from where our coordinates were taking us. Seeing what we thought was a cache from the ground we boosted into the tree. With excitement in our veins ensuring there were no muggles to spot us. To our jaw dropping surprise on opening the cache we could not believe our eyes, our heart sank with a smile coming to our faces at the same time, we had been gazumped. Pipped by my own sister and niece (BTW, it’s there fault we now addicted to this game of geocaching). After a quick phone call and some stern words (tongue in cheek). We had a good laugh about the scenario. Thanks McCarthyBoysYT for the challenge TFTC
