Hi TeamAllaru,The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention, or it may not but in the absence of the cache owner performing maintenance and/or disabling the cache to check it out, 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.Ngaambul - Matt

I'm thinking it may have been muggled. I believe I can see where it is supposed to have been.

DNF
 
05-Oct-24
A bit too well hidden (for me today)
 
04-Oct-24

This one took us a long time as we searched every nook and cranny, up and down. Then Mrs SKI spotted the anomaly.Today we set out on a loop, first heading down the highway to Uralla and then returning via the Mihi Trail to reach Armidale late afternoon.We found some great caches along our way and explored Uralla completing caches and an Ad Lab.The Mihi Trail was an unexpected surprise as we really enjoyed the undulating countryside and a number of historic homes and farming buildings. The trail also pointed out a number of interesting features we may well have missed. A variety of hides, all in good condition and all easily found made for a pleasant drive.Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache TeamAllaru.**SKI Pair****

Full time Nomads, travelling around Australia since 2014. Making our way to Broken Hill for Mundi Mundi Bash. Before leaving Uralla we headed out to tackle some caches in town, before returning and hitching up the van and heading to Tamworth.Wow this had us beat. We were calling it quits and going to log a DNF when Mrs Felix ....... something and Mr Felix saw the cache apparently he had already looked there! Hmmm maybe not.We found this cache today. TFTC TeamAllaru Cool

TFTC and the extra clue the coordinates were spot on we spent a while looking at the wrong end and looking for a bigger cache after reading previous logs, but Im happy to report that the cache size and coordinates listed are spot on to the cache that is currently in place.Very clever and a favourite point for creativity

After coming to this park for years as a rest stop on my way home from visiting family, I was excited to see that there was a cache here... Was hidden a little too well for me to find this time. Will definitely be coming back to have another crack on my next time past...

26-Dec-22
A little hard
 
15-Dec-22
Heading home after a few days exploring and caching around the Armidale area.
A fairly quick find despite the coordinates pointing us to the other side of the creek, S30 38.289 E151 30.009 should be closer to the mark.
Thanks for the cache

29-Oct-22
Had a lovely day at thunderbolts! I definitely don't think it's a micro cache ️
 
29-Oct-22
GPS had us on the wrong side of the bridge but found it once we had looked on both ends
 
13-Oct-22
Searched high n low in many holes in one for nil result. Repairs at Gz with bunting barricade at the end. Perhaps better luck next time.
 
25-Sep-22
Pritty hard to find had to look at a spoiler to find it
 
19-Sep-22
DNF at 11:02 AM.
GPSr took us to the middle of the bridge and we looked in all the nooks and crannies, then the GPSr wandered over to the other end so we dutifully followed and checked in all of the nooks and crannies - but couldn't find anything. We couldn't even find the GCA cache that was there that cachers were finding and claiming it as the Digger Elks Bridge cache!
Must be well hidden after all of the drama in the past!
 
12-Sep-22
Well at last we get back to Uralla to have another look for this cache.
A couple of people enjoying the park, so after a thorough search we eventually discovered a cache.
Thanks TeamAllaru for placing this cache
 
11-Sep-22
GPS had us on the wrong side of the river, but a quick find for us once we expanded our search. Geokid swapped one of his toys for a glow in the dark planet. Log signed and cache replaced as found - TFTC!
 
10-Sep-22
Not too hard but still found it in a little bit disappointed because there was no pencle and no geocaching explanation book but Still put some glow stickers

06-Jul-22
Day off while working at the solar farm so I thought I’d grab some caches!
River was flowing nicely, good hide! Tftc
 
17-Jun-22
Cache has been replaced with a little added camo to hopefully keep it more secure and hidden from muggles. Good luck and happy caching
 
06-Apr-22
Disabling this cache, as it keeps going walkabout. Apologies to previous cachers for the inconvenience. Will have replacement cache up and running again soon.
 
05-Apr-22
No luck think it fell threw or went walk abouts.. will come back another day to have a better look
 
22-Mar-22
This was the last cache of the morning & we finished with a DNF.
We were with a previous local cacher who had found it before so felt confident on a find.
We think it may have fallen right through.
Thanks
 
13-Mar-22
Lots of muggles about, back another day for a more thorough search.
 
09-Mar-22
Caching with FootyFanatics on a trip up to Armidale. Decided to go to the Top Pub in Uralla for lunch so it was essential to do this cache. Nobody around today so easy to find.

Ftf new log with FF and jasmr
 
26-Jan-22
Geograndson olliejf_h is visiting Armidale from Sydney. We've done a bit of geocaching in the last ten days and today he will head off back home to get ready for school next week. We collected Geobuddy jasmr and drove to Uralla to find some newly placed caches by TeamAllaru. We intended to get coffee at our favourite cafe but forgot the Australia Day celebrations. Not only was the cafe closed but the main street was cordoned off for the parade.

Never mind, a great time was had by all. Please forgive the cut and paste logs, TeamAllaru, there are a few to get through.

Thanks for the cache. Took nothing, left nothing, travellers visited and the log was signed.
