As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm temporarily archiving this to keep it from continually showing up in search lists. Just contact us when you have the cache repaired, and assuming it still meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.
I spent about 30 minutes hunting for this but I now have to agree with NIBS and Rav 4, I think it has gone walkabout.
I went looking for this one acting off an old info sheet and didn't see the note posted by Rav 4 Raiders. I too searched the area high and low for at least 30 min, but came up empty handed. Great area for a walk though. Sights and (pleasant) smells aplenty.
Made a visit to this site as was in the area. Walked in circles for 40 mins and came up empty handed. Either the floods moved it or skippy has collected it for personal use. If prior visitors say was damaged may need to be visited to confirm still active. Will monitor to re-visit as great walking area with Geo-Pup.
Found at 5.15pm in pouring rain.
The whole area at GZ is a big swamp at present.
Cache log was saturated but managed to inscribe our name in it.
No ruin to be seen. Cache was found after a brief search.
A great area for some exercise.
Thanks AC

Found the cache after briefly walking around in a circle or two. GZ was definitely wandering, fortunately the cache sort of stands out.
You really need a pen to write in the log book as it is soaked. A pencil just doesn't get going.

Nice area around here. Very cold even though it is only 4pm. Took the dog out for a good run and he loved it! Found very quickly and easily as the sat lock seemed to be very good even with all the tree cover. The logbook is very damp so this may need a bit of drying out and placed into a zip lock baggie. Took dog toy and left WWII figurine. Cheers.
Found at 11:50 with Alex, Hayden and Michael helping.
We had a really flaky lock, varying by up to 35m, but easy enough to spot the cache.
Took the polished stone, left teddy keyring.
Thanks Animals.

Found by Mini Skip with only a few minutes of daylight to spare, next time we'll go into the forest earlier. Took Tommy fiurine and singapore coin, left 2 bags of marbles.

Found the cache amongst the needles and the cones. I'm suprised its still there after all the work in the area.
Thanks guys.

The sat lock was ok under the tree's but we didn't know where to look first, there's so many possible hidding places It took us a while but we got it.
Found by Mary & David at 1730. The rain today forced a change in our caching plans. We cut back to an abbreviated program. As we walked in from the road, our apprehension grew the closer we got to GZ. The loggers have been at work thinning out the plantation, and we were worried that the cache might have been crushed, buried or suffered any one of a number of other nasty fates. Fortunately, we found it shortly after reaching GZ, but there were freshly cut branches all around. Like being in a Norsca ad - green, scent of pine needles, pine log chips and sawdust. The pouring rain certainly refreshed everything but added to the slippery factor. Don't know how much longer this cache can survive. No swaps small enough so took nothing. Our thanks to The Animal Cachers.

Found quite easily which we were relieved about because there are a lot of trees lying around that look like they have been cut quite recently. Loved the smell and sound of the wind through the trees. Took the pig and left the tramp. Thanks Animal Cachers.

Scullyk found the hard one again...
Wandered around in circles 110F (43C) heat looking for the cache!
Our GPS bounced around like a rabbit in a skillet set out in that sun...
At one time I had to get into the Sun to re-lock the Sat's and I thought the GPS would melt!!!
Above is the GZ location our GPS thought it was at...
This was a very nice cache and we had a nice walk in the woods.
never saw any ruins (except the ruins of old trees that were logged)
Took Mexican coin and Animal Picture - Left RugRat Baby and Ronald McDonald
Thanks for this one!!!
Found 15:25, after a pleasant walk in the forest.
Took military figurine (Boer War) and left body scrub glove.

Found this one after walking around in circles for a while. There seemed to be other logs in the note book that aren't logged here (?).
The forest was beautiful in the late afternoon.
Thanks guys

Found this one on the way to the Motor Museum. The S.A. State Forests are run a lot different to the ones back home. Really enjoyed the Motor Museum and even got to see the Giant Rocking Horse.

Couldn't see any ruins nearby but the forest was nice and peaceful with sounds of birds and creaking pines.
Looked in all the obvious places til I saw the cache just sitting out in the open. I placed it back exactly where I found it but covered it up slightly. (217)
