Hi Morley196,

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 4 weeks) 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 4 weeks 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.

We are on another short (three day) caching holiday in North Western Sydney, staying for two nights in a park cabin at the Ingenia Holidays Avina BIG4 Holiday Park at Vineyard. Hoping to collect some previously solved Mystery/Puzzle caches, complete some Adventure Labs, and accumulate enough cache finds with our mini seven day streak for this month’s "Wheel of Challenges" (medium) souvenir. Photos will be uploaded to some (most) logs on our return to home base.

Today (day 2) started with an exploration of the area around Riverstone, collecting some Traditional caches and going for a walk around the Riverstone CBD for an Adventure Lab and it's associated AL Bonus cache, but sadly there was also several DNFs. After lunch we headed up to Richmond for a four stage MultiCache and a couple of Traditional caches. A total of 15 finds for the day (day 2).

This was the next one we came to as we strolled along the main street of Riverstone, but sadly nothing cache-like was found at GZ. TFTH anyway Morley196.

On a walking tour of Riverstone to find a few new caches that has been published since I was last here, this cache proved to be a poor start to the day. Both the D/T rating and previous finder logs / experiences suggested that this cache should be pretty easy to find, however it eluded me this time.
 
20-Jul-22
Damn, no sign of it
 
29-May-22
Very easy find but once again I took the last spot in the log

This was the only find for the day. I asked blackdiamonrun if he wanted to find a cache with me today as I needed another traditional to fill my calendar. This one, upon reading the description and seeing the location, seemed like a good option. We parked across the road and made our way to GZ. I had a thought about a particular type of placement but that wasn't to be after making an elevated observation. Nevertheless, walking ahead and turning around should not be discounted as I found the cache. SL. TFTC.

Bit busy on a Sunday afternoon, but managed to retrieve, sign and replace. The lid does not tighten, so this one may need to be replaced soon. TFTC

Nice quick one. Thanks for the cache.
 
11-Apr-21
In the area today and once I'd finished my chores decided to grab a few more caches in the area and this was one of them.

After parking close to GZ the cache was soon in hand and once the log was signed all was returned as found.

Day 2 of post-Christmas caching with aubeasty and we still had a bunch to find before we reached our goals. Rain, wind and humidity could not stop us and the mix of ALs and trads in the area got us over the line before the end of 2020, phew!

Can it be closed and keep a log dry, then use it!

Cache Log:

This was our second cache of the day. After finding Roseberry Park Estate (GC8K4ED), we came straight here. This cache location looked both simple and odd. We thought we knew where it would be and we were correct however, if we were wrong, we just didn't know where it would be.
Thankfully, it was exactly where it seemed to be and everything was found it really good condition.
Thank you for hiding this cache and not allowing it to go to waste. You provided us with some fun and good memories and we appreciate that immensely.
Thank you Morley196.

Nicely tucked away. Most of this COs caches are "top shelf" in their construction. Thanks again, Morley196

Two ALs and an influx of new hides had me coming up a day earlier for a family function to lay assault on the Riverstone area. Clue and convenient parking had CIH within seconds of exiting the car.

Today I decided to have an early break from work(ing from home) and head out to grab some geocaches. Wrestling my way through school-traffic it took me a long time to drive from Castle Hill to Riverstone.

Once arrived, I unfolded my foldable bike and started my Riverstone exploration and picked up quite a few caches.
I recall Morley196 once showing his 3D printed caches on an event. And here they are! Well done!

Cache in good condition TFTC

Riverstone tends to be a place I go through rather than to, so it was good to spend an hour or so around town this morning, using the good old geo-map as my guide.

I particularly enjoyed your cache making abilities ... it's amazing what you can do with a 3-d printer these days.

Thanks for your efforts morley196 and, along with goingplaces2, for showing me a good time in Rivo.

After a brief walk up and down finally spotted the cache. Container looks to have some damage to it and may not be in the original location.

#7200 (5 of 5 today)

Another calendar find day today. So headed out Riverstone way for some numbers.

Went for five and found all of them. Also tackled a multi near my first find of the day - getting as far as the coordinates for waypoint 7, before heading off for more finds.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Wasn't actually looking at the numbers closely enough to realise I was going to hit a mini milestone when I left home today. Soon realised 5 would be the charm, and thought a **Morley196** hide would be a good choice - this CO is my third most found. Many thanks for all your hard work.

And this is the one for the milestone.

Quick find sign and replace here.
Time to head home.

We decided to clean up the rest of the caches around this area while out with ilook4geo. We pulled up here and spotted the container immediately. The log soon had both names noted on it as required. We then tried to tuck the container back in so it was a little less obvious.
Thanks you to Morley196 for placing this cache.

Continuing my drive heading west and away from home, what am I doing, I shoud be heading homeward by now but hey just a few more caches while I'm out here.
For a moment when I looked at where this cache was located I had a horrible thought - this is Sunday so maybe I would be muggled out here.

Arriving at the location there were no muggles in sight, it was later than I thought. I could see something that matched the hint so went over for a closer inspection.

The cache wasn't where I expected or the GPS liked. Hmm, cache creep?
The container, now what has happened here? Now that I'm writing my log I've had another look at the cache info and see why its like that. Good idea.

Signed the log and replaced where the GPS told me to put it.
