Hi moom3,

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

Looked all around unable to find it.

If it was meant to be under this bent tree it is no longer there. Had a good look everywhere else

Couldn’t find

Good find, but full of water. Paper all wet.

Sad about this one, it kept saying it was 1 Meter but then it would say 9.

Found a pile of rocks that didn't belong at the hint tree but no container.
Had a good look around the area for other spots but no cigar.

Ironbark.

Didn’t have much time to look but this one did stump me :/ Next time!

.

Found with Galeforced! TFTC!!!

Found with wootowncrew. Log very hard to sign... water logged. First of the day

Dnf

A few that fitted the hint but found it. Thanks!

A few options from the clue but great fun. Thanks

I have moved this one approx 30 cm up into a better position as the camo had died off. It’s still on the same bendy tree. Otherwise all is in good order, happy caching !

Finally time to do this walk today all in one go! A nice quick find at this first cache to start off the day, thank you!

Nice one!! Thanks

Thank you

Hard to find but first one found!!!

Heading to the Shire for dinner with friends, so left early and decided to target the start of the *Coal coast Series*.
Went for six and got them all. HUZZAH!
Almost got to my friends' place on time, too...

Under the bush well hidden

Found it with my girlfriend on a day out geocaching

Found it

Found

Nice one!

A few objects matched the hint but eventually I found the right one. Coords a few m out for me today. Tftc

Thank you for creating it this was the first ever geochache we have ever done

On our wedding anniversary having fun thanks

Scrambled around a little here as there seemed to be a few options which fit the hint. Eventually spotted something a little suspect and sure enough there was the cache! Co-ords were about 9m out for me? But it is bushy around here. Tftc!

Out caching with Meritonnn enjoying a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Blue skies and gorgeous ocean views along this series. TFTC!

Decided to come down and enjoy the day by finding a few caches then a swim. Never been here before. Great area and my new favorite beach. Find was pretty easy. Signed and placed back

Yay the last in this series (I hope). I started at the wrong end and forgot my pen for this one so the picture is my proof

Finally finished series...... sdrawkcab!!
Beautiful area to cache and leave Sydney behind.....TFTC's !!!

All in order here. Picking up a few smiles before we head off for a swim to cool down. Tnsl, Tftc Moom3

Went out and checked on all caches that have been placed so far in this series. All are still where they should be, and have replaced a few logs.

Tftc, quick and easy find!

Try again next time

Spent the day collecting caches in the Illawarra. Completed the Coal Coast Series along with a handful of caches in my 50km radius. Found most caches in good condition, with decent coordinates and helpful hints. Thanks to all Cache Owners for their contribution to this recreational activity.

With Wheatz

With Juan.

Quick find, nice town tftc

TFTC

Coordinates were a bit off but spotted it after about 5mins! TFTC

Out for the day with KillerPython, gps was off but eventually we widen our search and got there in the end TFTC!

Raincoat on, time to brave to the wild weather and find some local caches on a morning off in Wollongong's northern suburbs.

Took a lot of searching, but got there in the end.

Cheers

Cache appears to be in good condition and still within its hiding spot.

Today I needed to find 3 caches, we came down here to pickup some of this series. Quick find, stamped log and replaced . Thanks to moom3

TFTC,

A bit late logging this cache after a couple of nights under medical care.
Again, Nana made the discovery. I might as well post DNF's, her built in GPS was faster and better than my Garmin.
Came out with Nana nel to top up our day counts to 5 as part of a personal challenge set us by Grub Fred.
Visited trackables.

Just a reminder for people to read the description of each cache, as more hints are mentioned. Also to look at the whole cache page itself. Will be doing a maintenance check on all caches with DNF’s tomorrow (26/10/20).

Thanks again everyone, appreciate all of the support and guidance. Will be doing the last lot of caches in the series this weekend (31/10/20), if all goes to plan!

Looked around for a bit but could not find

Tried to finish off the rest of the series around here this afternoon but fell a couple short. Most were quick finds. This was the first. TFTC!

Bit of bush bashing as gps was slightly off for this one, beautiful area

So many bent trees! I resorted to a Paf to eventually run it down, thanks.

The last one of the series. Thanks, this was an enjoyable group to find. TFTC

Found it thanks. Good one.

Thanks! Found with help from fruends

Needed a clue but got it

A great afternoon to get out and do some caching. It'd been quite some time since I'd cached in the northern suburbs so there was plenty to choose from. What I should have realised is, being a weekend it'd be very busy with plenty of muggles to spoil my hunt.

Nonetheless I bagged a handful of caches for my afternoon in the northern suburbs.
A nice easy find in what was a popular pathway.
Thanks

We started at the very beginning, a very good place to start. Quick grab TFTC

OCW Brewmaker & EverestHigh

Headed south today.

A lovely beachside location

Picked up TB

Tftc

Easy find but watch out for broken glass. OCW The Bebes. TFTC

Some streets in Stanwell Park I had never been before! Interesting new little series.
TFTC Wilbert67

Heading this way to visit family and to grab these first four caches of the series.
This one took some finding! With the hint in mind my Garmin 700 GPSr lead us to the place but we searched for sometime before we had to PAF a previous finder. Armed with some guidance we were still having no luck. I decided to widen my search and strait away spotted the cache about 5 meters further away. Not sure if the GPSr was acting up?
Signed the log and re hid. TFTC moom3 and mrwiskers76.

So many ways to interpret the hint. Eventually the camo revealed itself.

TFTC.

We had planned to do the nearby AL this week. It was a pleasant surprise to have another 4 caches to look for today. Dropped a TB to continue its journey Thanks moom3 and mrwhiskers76

Brewmaker and I saw these caches come up whilst on a day down in Kiama.

Knowing Brew can't resist a [FTF], I checked on our way home and they were still unfound.

A quick detour and the four FTFs were ours.

[FTF] with MrD. More to come. TFTC
