Sorry ShannonPC, after a thorough search I did not come up with the goods today for your Traditional, Stop 47. It may be worth a sanity check to see that it is still here, I have been known to be cache blind at times. Clearfelled
Hi ShannonPC. Today I/we attempted to find your Stop 47. Unfortunately, one of the following happened and that made us unsuccessful in logging a find :1. Hadnt rubbed all the sleep out of my eyes. 2. Hadnt had breakfast so was concentrating on filling my stomach. 3. Had someone else with me and they couldnt be bothered looking and wanted to leave. 4. Had muggles hanging around waiting for me to leave so they could relieve themselves. 5. Wrong time of day. 6. Wrong time of night. 7. Wrong information given to me about where the cache is hidden. 8. Coordinates out by more than 10 metres. 9. Nobody has blown up the nano factory yet. 10. Too much or not enough water / light / GPS signal. 11. Flat battery in navigation device. 12. Cache has been stolen / muggled. 13. Such a small cache hidden in such a large area (fake rock in a boulder field / pico in west coast horizontal scrub)14. Too far up the tree to reach with the ladder AND the pole. 15. Too far down the hole to reach with a magnet or grabby tool. 16. I gave up looking. 17. I need to be somewhere else soon/now/a while ago. No offence intended! One of these may actual fit my DNF on your cache.
Dnf a tree branch had fallen not sure if that made it harder to find, or if it was hidden in there.
### Cache Maintenance Visit Required please.###This geocache has been brought to my attention as needing an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache. See the [GCHQ Health Score](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713) process.I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it checked by the Cache Owner. The cache owner needs to:* Take action to restore the cache or address issues such as correcting the D/T rating.* Re-enable the cache by posting an Enable log* Post an Owner Maintenance log to advise what has been done and to clear any Needs Maintenance attribute which is present. Otherwise :* Post a Note Log to request more time if necessary or provide other information.. **Do not use an Owner Maintenance log for this. That is for use only **when you actually do something to repair the cache**. Alternatively:* Archive the cache, and remove any remaining geo-litter from the site.In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page to await owner action by ShannonPC and to take it off the playing board to prevent further geocaching community inconvenience.[Please see the maintenance section of the Geocache Hiding Guidelines.](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance)**I will check back in 30 days** to see that action has been by the CO.If nothing has happened, I will assume that the cache has been abandoned, and, unfortunately, I will need to Archive this cache. *Caches archived because of lack of maintenance/abandonment will not be unarchived.*The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is in good condition, waiting to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.Please see [my profile page](https://www.geocaching.com/p/default.aspx?u=Balayang) for additional information.Thank youBalayang -GeoffCommunity Reviewer -Australia
Tasmania Trip Day 7. I only stayed in Queenstown overnight, but I got a great feel for the place and would love to spend more time here. My target today was Hobart, but although the total distance did not seem too high, the nature of some of the roads and the lack of towns made for a longer sparser trip than I had expected. There were plenty of great nature spots along the way and when I did at last reach a bigger spot, New Norfolk, I had an enjoyable time exploring the town. I had expected more in Hamilton, but alas did not even get lunch there. After getting into Hobart I checked into my motel in Battery point and headed out on foot. I visited the coastal section of the pint end finished in Salamanca place for dinner and a few virtual caches before heading back up the hill to my accommodation. I should have checked the logs before I stoped, but I also did not find anything here today. Thanks.Albida
Today Zozetta and I headed out to the Claremont area with the aim of finding a few caches. We started the day at Windermere bay then drove towards Granton finding some good caches along the way. We discovered some places that we had never been to before found a good variety of container sizes and types. It was good to be out caching again after two weeks without attempting one.
We parked right next to the cache and made a quick find, seventh of eight today. Log book is dry.
Thanks for the cache ShannonPC!

TFTC! A quick grab n go. Not the salubrious spot due to loads of rubbish. Need to come back for a CITO around here…
I had this one on my map as a blue sad face for quite some time. After seeing it got replaced I’ve been meaning to come and have another look. Driving in the area today and needed a find for my calendar so stopped to see if I could find it today. I found it immediately out in the open. Log book a little wet but still able to sign. Put back where I think it probably went. TFTC.
At the obvious hiding place?? Yes there it was. A quick find on my way home TFTC
Found with clanbeckett as we had a little bit of time to kill before heading to the airport.
Moved from Brighton to Hobart showground today out this afternoon for a few caches, TFTC.
Moving camp from near Kingston to New Norfolk today. After stopping for coffees at Mona (just 'cos we can) and heading out on the old road we had to slow down for road works just near GZ. There was plenty of room to pull off with our camper in tow, so we did a quick grab and go. Thanks ShannonPC. All good here.
One more before dropping the kids home. Let them find this one, which they did in super quick time. TFTC.
Cache was pretty wet inside, but log not too bad.

Down in Tassie for a break before Christmas and continuing our travels around the country, wow the countryside is absolutely glorious. Happy to say we came up trumps here and walked away with a smiley TFTC
A quick find at the end of the peak hour rush.
Not as busy as it used to be along here.

First cache for the day after our plans to ride the track and get the Derwent Views caches was thwarted by fog and strong winds.
Instead we headed to this cache which was a quick and easy find which is the best way to start a caching day.
Thanks.

Nice drive-by after doing some of the railway line caches and heading home. Miss 3B was about toast so she sat in the car while I grabbed it

We came back today and saw the cache hide easily. It was not like this at all when we visited two weeks ago. It sticks out like a sore thumb and is likely to go missing (again?).
Glad to get rid of the frown.

Quick search in all the obvious places and no luck.
Maybe the CO can look in on this one, as the dog owner over the road was paying a little too much interest for my liking.
