The cache has been [**temporarily disabled**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=235), so as to remove it from search listings and discourage people from visiting this location, until the issues/s can be addressed.

**You do need to respond in some way within 14 days,** so others know you are on top of it, as well as indicating exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication scuttle this listing.

#What you need to do:-#
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-

- **Check On The Cache** - once checked, place an Owner Maintenance log and then enable the cache.

It's missing.
We found last week and the last find was 2 days ago.
We have returned with friends today and it is gone.

Found it with mr 10 very clever find

Find number 12159 at 8:14:58 am on Tuesday the 11 July 2023
Departing Melbourne the other day and travelling north for the winter, well, for the northern warmth actually (hopefully ), passing through as many small towns as I can grabbing the odd cache here and there as I travel. Leaving Mathoura this morning and travelling through Deniliquin, Hay, Darlington Point and Griffith. I was hoping to get to Condobolin this afternoon but only managed Tullibigeal, I'll be heading off in the morning, north again .
A nice quick find today, neat hide
Log sheet is full and could do with a replacement.
**Thanks for placing this cache dghoffy**

Found it today with the kids after a few days of rain. Great location. Exact GPS location is a little out but read the sign for a clue.

Just getting around to logging a few caches after being away for few days.
Was checking out the watertower artwork and noticed that this cache not far away. Definitely need your rowboat at the moment with all the water around.
My wife is on a roll today spotting the cache fairly quickly
TFTC

Thanks for the cache. Found with Algae on a road trip up north to the warmth. Big ants nest in the cache. Needs a new log, didn’t have one. Well hidden. A fav from me, well made.

Found with Shumba7 on our way north chasing some warm weather and a barramundi. Plenty of ants standing guard

We had just completed the long overdue maintenance on our caches in Echuca that the floods had washed away.

It was quite an experience walking around and realising that the top of our heads would have been under a meter of water going by the high water marks on the trees.

We decided that an LGA we hadn't cached in yet was not too far away, so we headed up the Cobb Highway to Deni.

We had Gypsy Girl with us, and she joined us as we searched for the cache.

A nice quick find of a cache full of six-legged cache guardians. We knocked the cache guardians out and signed the very full log.

Thank you for this Traditional cache dghoffy. A favourite point from us for a well-constructed and clever hide.

Hello dghoffy thank you for the cache

A nice easy find.
nice hide.

This was one of many caches found on our way back home from Newcastle seeing our grand children.

Found on Sunday, 21 May 2023 at 1151

**TFTC**

Not today, brain cells weren’t working.

Thought this one would be super hard. But no. Arrived to see the hide on the front instead of the back. Awesome hide

What a fantastic cache in a lovely location. I thought I'd have to walk away as it took a while, even though I touched it. Gave everything a harder tug, and low and behold, there it was. Well done. Loved it.

Rutherglen to Deniliquin.
After leaving the events at Corowa we stopped along the highway were we found it suitable to pull over with the caravan on.
A well constructed hide worthy of a FP
Thanks Thewins5 for hiding this cache.

Thank you for placing this for us to find. Thank you for contributing to the geo map and maintaining when required. TFTC

SA’s Leap Year Event - keep the date free - 29th February 2024. GCA1DNA. Can’t wait!!

#17436 - 6:50:00 PM; Day 1 of the Rutherglen Mega mission. The plan for the day is to head to Deniliquin via Wagga, The Rock, Lockhart, Jerilderie, Conargo and Wandanella, adding a few counties to the tally along the way. All up 16 cache finds, 21 Adventure Labs and 4 DNFs. All caches were found in good condition and replaced as found. It was now dark as I strived for the last couple of caches I'd included for today. Another where I actually had my hand on the cache without knowing it! Checked some earlier logs and twigged about the hide. Adding a fave for the effort here. Well done! Apologies for the largely generic logs! TFTC dghoffy

After a short meeting in Wagga it was a wet trip home via a few caches.

I fully agree with a previous log that this is a good cache to use as an intro to caching. Well designed and thought out but not too hard to find, spiders and all

Thank you, dghoffy, for this cache.
#4238. Log signed at 1739Hrs.
(I often sign the log book as "W+W" to save paper/time/ink)

Found within a few minutes of climbing around the grass and reeds, quite an easy but clever hide, thoroughly enjoyed and props to who put this here, highly recommend for anyone trying to get into geocaching xx

Found with gridge98 on a roadtrip to Sydney!
Thanks for the cache

After the CITO in Shepparton last night and an early morning swim in the Campaspe River then a 7am event, it was off on a day of LGA exploring in NSW. Having not cached or explored much over the border, today was the day for it.

A very clever and tricky hide here. It took me a while even having touched it and not realised it was the cache. A favourite point for your efforts.

Thanks dghoffy for adding this cache to the worldwide collection for us all to enjoy.

Cool hide here after not having any luck on the other cache in town, don't understand why this island needs 2 cameras though.

Day 3 of our trip from Adelaide to Sydney with Courtneyrose_ , today we made our way from Echuca to Corowa detouring the back roads out to Deniliquin and back to Victoria to complete a few of the wherigo series near Rutherglen.

Thanks for the cache

Found it

Very nicely done. Colour match is the impressive part. Have yet another fave point. Tftc.

Nice little spot.

Too clever for me. DNF Today

Brad has been sent to NSW for a week or so to assist in the flood disaster response. Pretty hairy time. And lots and lots of water and mozzies. And dead cod. And black toxic very smelly water. And water on roads. And blocked roads. And lots of mud. And rain. And river levels getting higher every day. And lots and lots of sandbags.
Only caches were caches of opportunity or on the way over or back. This was one of those.
Found in the first spot checked. Nice hide. FP. Picture of tye Edward River oval attached.
TFTC

Couldn’t find the cache, too clever for us

Very nice quick find thanks

Surprisingly found in the first place I checked. I thought it might be in there but it still wasn't quite what I was expecting.
Great camo!

TFTC
Awarding favourite point.

Not today. The wrong cache to take a first timer.

Can’t find (total novice first geocache EVER). Just want to check that it’s not off the path enough that you have to walk into the garden

???about an hour

A sneaky hide, only found after teaching out to CO and returning. TFTC

It is always appreciated when the CO goes that little bit further when hiding a cache.
Well done. Have another FP.
Adding a photo of the silo art nearby.

Found by Mary and David at at 12:25. Day 2 on our way north to attend QOGM Murweh. We were locked down last year, and the borders were closed. Cold and rainy todasy, so we did wonder about the cache name and whether we'd need a kayak. Needn't have worried, and found a brilliant hide, one of the best-made of its kind we've seen. An iconic location, and a well-deserved FP given. Our thanks to dghoffy.

Quick find to start my day towards Mildura and Broken Hill
TFTF

Quick stop before the rains hit again, we’ll constructed cache TFTC

Day 2 of our tour of Victoria and NSW. Grabbing a few caches along the way. 5 from 5 today!
We thank the community for placing and the ongoing maintenance so that we can continue having fun.
The spoiler photo makes it easy, maybe dghoffy should delete to make the hunt a little harder!

Just passing. This s well done park. TFTC

I’m off on my annual 6 week adventure and it is back to Outback Queensland to finish off what I started last time but got interrupted along the way.
It is nice and quiet on the roads this morning and I’m now in NSW and the weather can only get better to Melbourne is at the moment.
Deni the Ute capital of Australia but I was not after a Ute but a cache instead.
I have driven past this place many a time and have not given it a second glance.
They have done a great job on fixing the area up here and it looks great.
Had a walk around and the phone soon took me to GZ and a clever cache was soon spotted and the log was soon signed and now back to heading north.

Thanks dghoffy TFTFC

Cool hide! Beautiful spot!

Tftc nice spot for a walk. Impressed with cache.

Nice hide. Impressive engineering. A few birds about. No people though. They must be working. Tftcsl.

Heading home from Wilcannia we deceived to grab a couple of caches to break up the drive. This one was a great hide, had it in hand reasonably quickly. TFTC

Row row row your boat found the cache pen decided to shit itself

Found It!
A quick find here just before dark. That's a well built cache!
TFTC

It was the only possibility. Very nice work.

Found the well disguised cache soon after arriving at GZ

A nice walk in the park on a sunny day.
Thanks dghoffy for the cache

TFTF! Very clever!!

The GC 'Peaks' challenge is finishing in a few days and I had less than half of the required points needed
So a caching day was planned and I decided a trip to Cobram and into NSW was the go[^]
I'd been trying to get a support worker and then my Wellness Coach, aka Moesby, said she was free tomorrow afternoon and she'd love to go caching![^]
1pm saw us heading off into the wild caching yonder and 1.22am saw me dropping Moesby back at her home[^][^] after a tiring[|)][|)][|)] but calm[^] and relaxing day[^] of caching![^][^]
We ended up at Deniliquin, Tuppal, Barmah and then back to Picola on our roundabout way home

All up, 7 caches were found, 2 DNFs were not found and an adventure lab stage was found at Picola at 12.30am[|)][|)], which also completed that adv lab for me[^]

Maintenance was undertaken on a few caches that needed some help[xx(][^]
It's amazing how time consuming looking properly[^] and then repairing or replacing a cache can be[?][?]

All day, I had been wondering where all of the cluster of geocaches around Cobram that I had seen online had gone[?][?] On our way home, I suddenly realised that in my late night efforts last night to re-date the pocket query split for NSW, I had only downloaded about 1/3 of the NSW pocket queries So my GPSr had only 1/3 of NSW's caches in it DOH!! Some of them were even archived too That's what happens when I'm tired and dealing with lots of phone calls while working in GSAK

I'd given Moesby my GPSr again to walk into this cache[^], so she could practice finding caches[^], and I questioned where she was going because I was tired[|)][xx(][|)] and it seemed that we had walked further than we needed to[?][|)][?][?]
When she said 'I have 1m' and she was standing by something I'd seen used as a cache hide before I walked up and looked for the usual type of container[?][?] There was NOT one of them but there was something I had seen before[^][^] I asked Moesby if she could see the cache hide[?] and she couldn't but with a nudge, she did find it[^]

Last actual cache for the night[|)][|)][|)] and now for the drive back to Shepp via Picola[^][|)][|)]

Find # 10300
Heading up north to Parkes for work. I decided to make the trip a 2 day one, as there is quite a few caches between home and Parkes.
Today was the bigger of the 2 travelling days. Took me 6.5 hours to do a 4.5hour trip where I stopped in Narrandera for the night.

A relative quick grab. Was just about to check previous logs when somthing got my attention...

Reperio 18:43

Stopped by here on our way to Nathalie today, and it was a lovely scenic spot to pull up and let the kids run around for a bit. What could be better? Well, a beautifully crafted cache to fit its surroundings…that’s what! Awesome cache! Well done. Fav point added.

Gratias dghoffy

Well constructed clever hide in a very open area.
Thanks for the hunt dghoffy


Find recorded using GCDroid and logged using GSAK

Found a range of caches as I heading to Mildura today. This was the first for the day, lovely construction on the cache here, and a quick find on this quiet morning. TFTC

Found and very clever !

Clever

We are finally out of our lock down and are making the most of it by catching up with friends traveling via different lab caches that we haven't found. We had a quick overnight stop in Swan Hill was required to do this and we are now heading towards Wagga Wagga picking up any caches that too far off the road.

We have never seen this park before on our travels or simply not taken notice of it until today. We really enjoyed our wander to gz reading the information signs as we went all the time being watched by a lone pelican standing on a log in the lake. Once we got to gz we waited for the GPSr to settle and then started our search and it was like winning Tattslotto. The nicely camoed cache was located in the second place we looked and we very happily added our name to the log.

Many thanks dghuffy for showing us this location and the nice hide, a favourite point from us.

Our second go at this one. The GPS was still about 10 mtrs out but we widened the search, A very sneaky hide. Well done. Cache OK

Quick easy find, blended in well, TFTC

Quick find. Blended in perfectly. TFTC

Found with big_j21 and miah06. Walked round for a bit with the GPS jumpy. Looked here and there. Geodad thought he found it but was let down. Big_j21 was the one who finally had the ah-ha moment (right where geodad had been). Previous logs helped and Miah06 made the grab. SL and replaced. TFTC

Grabbed it right away by accident

What a great hide, very clever. Fav point for sure. AnsMisty

Found TFTC

love this cache yes a fav for us too. tftc

We love finding caches that have the latest log as a DNF, to clear that dreaded little red dot.
When we pulled up at the roadside I thought, oh no, please don’t be in that, and was very pleased when your very good coordinates took us straight to GZ, where Catnap777 made quick work of locating this clever cache.
A favourite point from me for a very well constructed and clever cache container.

Loved the engineering on this cache. I love anything that is manufactured to this extent. Gives you a sense of achievement when you find a cache like this. Thank you to dghoffy for providing and maintaining this cache which was found in good condition.

Tried to find this guy with no luck. 3 of us searched high and low.

Phone was a bit jumpy, so I tied the dog to it and walked around for five minutes looking for it. All ok and well done with the camp. TFTC

Found with Dozenmater TFTC

TFTC - found with rainygirl74

This is my first one for this town it is a lovely town I have been up this way along the river before years ago. it is beautiful thank you for placing

Another calendar hole (this one a Project GC only lab cache day). Working near Booroorban I stopped in Deniliquin on the way home to collect this recently published cache. All quiet here and after looking in one spot I actually followed the GPS and quickly saw something that looked suspicious. And the cache it was. Full of small black ants, but all good otherwise.
TFTC dghoffy- a nice bit of kit

Decided to escape for a quick visit to Deni as there are a few newies in town. We also needed to do some cache maintenance in Mathoura.

Tricked us for a little while, but then Greg had a brain storm. Fav point from us

TFTC

Last find for the day with CH83, having driven from Canberra across 10 different LGAs to spend the night here, before onto Victoria in the morning. Really cool container, seen a couple like this overseas before so didn’t take us too long to check the correct spot, but a really well made and sneaky cache nonetheless.
Thanks for placing it here!

Quick find today while on a trip with JR_117. TFTC

Last cache for the day before returning to our cabin in a nearby caravan park
The old arrow on the GPS was swing around abit and after it settled down we soon spotted a maybe this is it. Yep it sure was
Really like these type of caches so it's an FP from H&P
Thanks for the cache

9773 Located by baby&Mrs gopher at 1535. Wasn't sure what to expect here and had almost given up the chase, but was very surprised when found,and we will give a FP. A cache with a little difference again .SL Tnx djhoffy.
