I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, Zac_and_Martin_Chugg, requesting additional time.

An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.

Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

Back home we decided to tackle a few caches that have been published since our last time in Launceston and surrounds.

Cache and contents were in good condition.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Just arrived in Launceston and the kids were desperate to do something fun. So a trip to the playground was on the cards. What an awesome playground, combined with a spot of caching, it is fun for all ages. TFTC

After a day on the road, we set up the van at Big 4 & brought the kids to the Riverbend Park to run off some energy. This cache was a quick find after a short walk. TFTC.

Took a bit of searching to come up with this one.
Recent rain must have covered it with a bit of mud.
Eventually I had it out and was able to sign the log.

A lovely spot to sit and look at the water . Thanks for the cache tnln replaced as found sl
 
The geocache is still there after the floods.
 
12-Oct-22
Found while entertaining geokids at the nearby playground. It’s obviously a seagull nesting area, they are out on the old dock sitting on little brown balls of fluff. They were annoyed at me for visiting. TFTC

When we came across the tent city we knew we had to be quick. We didn’t want to be the reason we spoil anyone’s fun. We have made it a life mission just to spoil our own kids fun.

It was time for a beer and walking back passed the hotel we saw a sign that shone out like it was an epiphany. Surely a place named “Woodys Bar” was going to welcome us in and maybe give us a few free beers. I haven’t had that nick name my whole life for no reason.

Unfortunately it wasn’t open for another 18 minutes and we were impatient. I was quite pizzed off so we went into the amazing park and then headed across the ditch to the mud bar to enjoy a cocktail to celebrate the day. tftc

Log was a bit torn so take care when extracting and be sure to roll up right when you're done

Good

Couldn't find this one when we last cached in Launceston back in April. No problems today and it was found within seconds.
Then drove along to check out the camping set ups nearby - not sure how they're getting away with that there! Looks like they've been there a long time.
Thanks, good to finally cross this one off the list.
 
02-Sep-22
Wasn't here the first time.
Found this time.

A quick find on my way to refuel the cache mobile.
Looking at Peppers Silo Hotel, I doubt anyone would be able to rappel off there anymore.
Thanks for the cache!
 
28-Aug-22
Great view very muggly.
 
28-Aug-22
found it!!
 
14-Aug-22
Looking for something to fill in time whilst not studying, it was suggested that I finally get around to logging THOSE caches long found but never logged. Some even have funny stories of being visited not only once or twice, but a few even have had a third or fourth visit before realising I've been there done that. The date is as near to the correct day the cache was found.So sorry for the generic and late log.JABs.
 
13-Aug-22
A nice quick find a few muggles around but that didn’t stop us getting the find!
Thanks for the find.
 
Finally done it. I will have to drill a chain into the rock to keep it there next time, if I can do that.
 
I'll check on it tonight. It was never missing when there were all those dnf logs, they just didn't find it. It has gone missing before though because of muggles.
 
Not there, Thanks to everyone that suggested maintenance. It was definitely muggled because the geocache was opened and had the log book all ripped up with weird scribbles. The geocache was not in the original spot but under a rock that was half underwater.
 
27-Jun-22
Found that spot, would have been ideal hide.
Unfortunately it's gone.
 
26-Jun-22
Could not find it Zac. I see it was recently replaced. I was actually here awhile ago and didn’t find it but forgot to log a DNF. Had a really good look with Geo Maggie2 but it looks like it might be gone again.
 
09-Jun-22
Searched under the two boulders but I could not find it!

I grew up playing around this area in the '70s.
So much has changed.
No fuel depot, no sports fields, no timber mill, no wool sheds, no sheep loading ramp or pens, no wharf to speak of.
The seagull nesting area is part of the wharf I remember walking along as a child.
I came down hoping the cache had been reactivated (loaded on my GPSr) but it had not.
I had a look anyway and found what was left of the original cache.
I hope the CO replaces this one.

Thanks for bringing me back to this area and for the memories.
 
Checked today and we could only see a ripped up logbook and a plastic bag. We will replace it asap. Next time we put it there we will peg it down or somthing so it is secure. If this happens again this cache will be archived.
