One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than %d% days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep 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, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

definatley not there checked today needs archive so others can place cache in the area

In town caching all the new caches that have popped up and though we would give this one a go. Fix up if needed and attempt to adopt seen as cache owner not been around since 2008.
Well after visit and with no problems with ground cover or any other matter we were unable to locate this one.
It looks like this area would have been a very nice place to come and swim but now. The bins are falling apart and there is rubbish all over the place. There were a few kids swimming or had been but there no way we would be.
I think it would be safe to archive this one.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.
I am 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 28 days) 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 page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Grrrr. When I read multiple previous logs of DNF why do I bother. Got me stumped. Did farmer Brown next door use this stump for his winter warmth. Plenty of stumps on private property....
 
10-Nov-12
Poo second time and still no luck. Searched every stump from Warren to Dubbo but no luck. Started from GZ and spread out only stopping when I hit the NSW border.
Rekon its grown legs and bought some camo gear from a passing soldier and hides, channelling a sniper from WWII.

Found at 2.15.

We also had some trouble locating this cache as our coords were out by 31m.

May need to be checked to see if someone has moved it.

Took frog.

Took quite a while to locate this one as the posted co-ords where well away from any hiding spot. Searching at dusk and a nearby tree full of wasps didn't help either. I wouldnt mind paddling down the river in the near future. Many thanks.
 
12-Apr-09
after looking at local views and a short walk we found cache after
looking around location for a while .nice location though
peaceful. Thanks from Team Denmar.
 
15-Mar-09
Found this one just after dark - also found the co-ord's to be out by about 20m, but still easy to find.
 
16-Nov-08

Found after a short search the stinging nettles are hard on the legs, 5th cache for today and time we headed for home. We will return another day to find a few more in this area. Took a keyring and left a different one.
Thanks Scaryfluff.

Hi We had a bit of trouble finding this at first, then tried coord's suggested by Team 80 and found it with without to much trouble. Nice spot thanks for showing it to us. TNLN Well Done Thanks heaps.........
 
26-Mar-06
Unable to locate. Looked in all tree stumps but were still unable to find

 
Finally we got this elusive bird. After two failure and heaps of burrs we exchanged keyrings. We also took Mr Roo the hitch hiker so we can send him on his way to Ireland. Thanks Scaryfluff.

Took lots of searching to find this and the mossies had a field day while we were doing it. They obviously prefer meat, no veg! Went back to the car to see if there was a clue that would help. There was and it did. Am sure we would never have found it without that help. The item mentioned in the clue was completely covered over by a spreading weed with little round sticky balls on it. Thanks scaryfluff, we had never seen so many large thistles. TNLN. Caravan friendly cache.
 
27-Aug-05
Took a little bit to find. Took Travel Bug Barney and left Mr Roo13 Hitchhiker. As the pres said the co ordinates put you into a paddock. If you try these co ordinates it should put you within a metre or so: S32 08 521 E148 14 019. Still had fun stomping around the thistles and dodging the bees. Thanks Scaryfluff. Team'80'
 
30-Jul-05
What a beautiful spot this was! Took a little bit of looking amongst all the thistles but we were lucky enough to find it after a hint from Team Cruizinaround. The
co-ords were out slightly but decided that we would drop off TB Barney to continue his journey to meet his twin brother in California. T. Golf Ball (so we could fit Barney in) L. Hair jewels
 
We looked, and looked and looked. Found heaps of thisles and burrs, but, alas, no cache. GZ seemed to be in the farmer's paddock. Still, it was a nice spot.
 
17-Apr-05
we (pres. and 1st lady were in attendence) searched for an hour without finding it. gps kept pointing to some farmers paddock
 
14-Apr-05
Third of six sought by a solo Team Bluedog today. There were plenty of farmers friend, cobblers pegs or sticky beaks well in bloom. One thing though - this is not a large cache. TNLN Team Bluedog
