As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it. Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Hi Smiley's , Has it been checked ?
 
17-Mar-13
Hi smiley, are you going to get this up and running again?
 
31-Jan-13
Unfortunately I'm still recovering from major surgery (getting better every day !!!!!!). However I will attempt to visit the cache location within the week and hopefully reinstate it to its previous glory.

Smiley here from Canada; yes I do have someone looking after this geocache in Australia; so just waiting to hear back from them if they can restore this geocache; but for the time being; this geocache should be disabled.

Thanks; Smiley Smile

The owner of this cache last logged on in August 2012 as of right now... I think he also lives in Canada? If no past owner is going to try and keep this cache going then it probably should get archived! I don't want to log this as "needs archived" yet just in case someone DOES maintain it on behalf of the owner!

The cache is definately not here as I've found it previously as "The Neighbs".

After the previous DNF we were skeptical. Again, no sock found even with help from the missus so I'm not sure this one is here any more. Please have a check and we hope to get this one soon, it's a nice spot and it's interesting to see the developments happening at Green Hills!

A DNF for us.

Did not see the sock but there appeared to be geo trail so knew we where in the right area. Widened the search but no luck

Found the cache but not the sock. I also did a bad thing. Opened up the clips locks on the side of the container & one broke. Seems to still be pretty watertight though. Sorry. Sad
 
30-Jan-11
Seems like it moved slightly from the original spot, but still around the general area... Great find Anna!! Along with Chucky, Newii, jeff, Bianca (newbie) and myself
 
21-Jan-11
My first ever cache, and what a nice spot to find it.
Used the logs and description to find the scrub with the sock (all the shrubs look the same) and after a bit of jumping in and out of the scrub between joggers I found the prize ! The cache is in good condition, with plenty of goodies inside.
I guess this cache will always be a special one now as it was my first !
 
16-Jan-11
My last cache for the day, as it was then time to return to Taren Point and retrieve younger daughter, Bethany, from the birthday party she was attending. Parked near the beach for the walk in, grabbed a choc dip soft serve for the walk, my first one of these in years! Headed up to the cache, found it, signed the log, and then back to the car.
TNLNSL, thanks for the cache smiley's!
best wishes,

While spending the afternoon at Wanda Beach, the wife and I would do a quick geocache while nearby. Took the trail to GZ. A quick search and was spotted by Kate (wife) and then I when in to grab it.

It was a bit cooler and wet today keeping the muggles at bay; however we enjoyed the walk and quickly had the cache in hand. Exchanged swaps and took in the views. Will have to follow the track another day, thanks. Big GrinBig Grin.
 
03-Dec-10
Don't you just hate it when everyone else seems to find a cache easily and you keep searching under a bush without success? Sad. found the sock, but no cache immediately nearby. I decided to extend my search radius a little and there is was!!! Smile In Sydney for Ed tech conference. TFTC
 
05-Nov-10

Report: After seeing it would not be the day to complete the Beach Run Multi I took this one on instead. Wind was up, very cloudy, but still a nice walk to GZ on a good path. No one really around until after I was standing with the cache in hand when I heard joggers coming! I ducked into the bush and they cruised right passed me hehehe sneaky. Cache is in good nick but please follow finders be careful with the surrounding vegetation. The Dunes are very sensitive. Tread light! Very Happy

26-Sep-10
This was awesome! Picked probably peak period to go find it though. Sunday morning, soooo many people going for a jog or walk. Made me feel a little bit lazy with my leisurely stroll, coffee in hand.
But we found a couple of breaks in the flow of people to duck in and grab it and pop it back.
TFTC.

Great spot, lovely walk and so accessible. But so well hidden. Lots of trinkets from Canada. TNLN
 
01-Feb-10
One has to wonder what this spot looked like before the sand mining companies pillaged vast amounts of the sand.
The Aussie movie Forty Thousand Horsemen was filmed here when the dunes were much bigger.
An easy find, thanks for the chance to return to a spot I last saw as a young child many moons ago.
 
06-Jan-10
found in bush just off walking track
 
27-Dec-09
Found with the kids in tow. Son's first find! Took Geoguitar GC and left "Pink pearls in mersea oyster" TB hoping to get it closer to the oysters.
 
19-Dec-09
we didn't take the most direct route but had fun walking the beach. Found a sock - actually one of many - in car park & now sock is in place. Left a Canadian guitar geo coin, took nil. Seemed a good Oz cache for it & specially as it was placed by a Kiwi ex-pat Cdn! TFTC
 
27-Nov-09
Found it after a bit of scratching around, no sock. Took Canadian geocoin and left bouncy ball. TFTC
 
14-Nov-09
A pleasant stroll up from the Wanda Beach carpark before hitting the surf. Friend Anna scored the points on this one, pleasant views with few muggles about. Thought this a good place to drop in a Canadian geocoin that had been freshly brought over by it's Canadian owners and I had found yesterday in the city. Thanks Smiley's.
 
12-Nov-09
Looked around the area, 100% sure I was at the right spot, but I couldn't find it. Sad [?]

We found it Sock missing but easy to find without it. Well hidden Windy day but we were protected on the walk to the cache. Took a bouncy ball and left a little car and little pony.
 
10-Oct-09
Second cache of the day while riding our bikes around Cronulla - still raining. TNLN. TFTC. For those not from the local area it's worth heading a little further north along the service road to see the last of the sand dunes - I believe this one is heritage listed.
 
12-Sep-09
A nice easy find in a nice spot on a nice morning. Muggles every where

What a top day and a top spot for a Cache. Not a puff of wind, not a cloud in the sky and really good surf. I followed the track and it seemed like every Muggle was out for a walk or a run. I had to time dashing in and finding the Cache between the passing joggers. I hid behind the bushes to complete the log and swap some TB's and again had to time replacing the Cache which was a rushed job. Not sure what the two women thought when I suddenly appeared behind them but they seemed to increase the pace a little, mind you not enough of a fright to stop them talking. I swear one of them never took a breath all the way back to the car park, just "he said and then she said....

Anyway brilliant place for a Cache, enjoyed it.

Took: TB * 2
Left: TB * 2

TFTCSL Cool

Out on a bike ride with the geokiddies and decided to detour to this cache. A super location with great views.
Took several TB's & a geocoin, left a couple of TB's.
