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.

Not there looked for ages no where to be seen

Given that this one hasn't been found in so long, I would suggest it needs to be checked if it still exists at the coordinates, and if not, archived or replaced. Thanks!

This is my second unsuccessful attempt. Must be a small container.

24-Mar-21
2 DNFs in a row. Searched for 10 minutes with no luck. 5 for 7 today...
 
21-Mar-21
Unfortunately we did not find this one today maybe we will look again when passing another time.

After the DNF I thought best to check it. It’s still in place and ready to be found.

Happy hunting.

Had a lovely walk in Apple Tree Creek on New Year’s Eve, and this little treasure gave me a bit of trouble...took a while for me to locate...then more trouble to even access.
Finally I was victorious!
Then before I got a chance to log it....the crazy govt. border closures came down on us like a ton of bricks!
So only just logging this now.

Interesting spot for a rotunda but guess it has flooded on occasions Bruce spotted the cache most likely because he is significantly taller than Liz and I

Quick find. Tftc

No luck for me. Maybe my lack of height did not help in the search. I did try to find it by holding my camera phone as high as I could.
 
09-Sep-20
I passed by this spot a couple of days ago,
and it was packed with an herd of grey gomads !! [:o]
Today I turned up to look for the cache,
and they had all left Smile

Not that it would have mattered,
turns out the cache is well away from the crowds anyway Smile
And in the shadows,
the cache was soon spied Big Grin

I needed to find something to increase me height to width ratio Red Face
A small rock was all it took Razz
Cache in paw,
logbook signed Big Grin

TFTC.

Childers
Arrived into town this morning & have set up our caravan in the camping area.
This morning we caches in a circuit around town, in the afternoon we found the ones close by.
Following the historical trail it led us to places that are of importance to the local area.
Originally we had a DNF here, after contacting the CO we were given a nudge where to find it. IT was hard to spot in its hide.
This looked a very nice camping area, quiet a few vans here.
A FP given here for placeing this historic trail
Thanks for placing this amazing series halez1993

(FTF) On my way home from a very successful 2 days in Hervey Bay and saw these so as I had to come through Childers any way why not do them now. If you are vertically challenged you will have a problem with this unless you can elevate yourself a few centimetres. You have to be Under then Up and then In. Looking at the road look towards the left hand front corner as the co ords are out by my GPSr. TFTC halez1993 and Hanlea.
