No response from owner. If you wish to repair/replace the cache [red]in the next couple of months[/red], just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. 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 30 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

Searched with Gonefishen07. same as everyone else this cache must have been washed away it really needs to be archived. Coo Coo for geocaching had a visit to GZ

searched with hearse068 same as all the previous lookers DNF put this one to rest as it must have been washed away

Let's do the humane thing.

Maybe it's time?

DNF today - sorry

17-02 1st DNF of the day at 10:00
Is it still there?
(''\(OoO)/'') No luck today but we will be back...

Looked and looked with no luck. Guy one the property across the creek was curious after his dog barked at us constantly.

found the place and how it was secured but was missing

Looked around for quite a while, but only found a suspicious item that could well have been used to hold the cache in place. Obvious old flood debris in the trees above the height of this item. May have to come back and check again sometime.

Was driving around a bit in the very strong winds, and didn’t realize I was almost right on top of where I needed to start this adventure. I didn’t even know such a place existed. Walked a fair bit, and had a bit of an “up and downâ€. Just as well I brought my gumboots - could almost surf in those waves. Again, almost about to give up, when I spotted something very interesting. Very clever spot piglet* . Thanks for this interesting cache location. Left nothing, took nothing (except a few photos), signed logbook.

Found it nice and easily - thanks.

I couldn't help myself and let out a "Moooooo" and instantly had an audience.

great hide easy find

Found this one - last for the day. The log is still damp but we were able to write on it carefully. It is getting close to needing another log.

E!

Nice easy find. Log damp. Not easy to fill out. Nice spot. TFTC

nice hide, but paper damp and falling apart. thanks

Volunteer Members of the Morwell SES found this cache while on a map reading and GPS Navigation exercise. Thanks for helping us train these members.

Very inspired to visit this location again after reading the sign in front. Log note was a little wet, so please be careful.
Thank you

found this one however the log note was quite damp.
signed it anyway, thanks!
will have to visit again inspired by the sign before the fence

FlyingPigSquadron has landed!
Can't believe this has lasted so long - well done
TFTC piglet

good one almost walked in to it lol SL TFTC

I like a brazen hide (if you can call it a hide as such)! My GPSr led me straight to it for an easy find. I enjoyed having to climb over the fence with that ladder to get to it.

I love caches hidden in plain view, and I'm normally accustomed to trying to spot the elaborate camo! This one though takes the cake! Talk about bold!

Thanks piglet for an interesting cache on this very hot day.

Found by caughtatwork at 12:45
Upon seeing the trees I despaired at finding our 4th cache of the day, but careful approaching meant the GPS kept up with us and headed us the right direction right off the bat for an easy find.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks piglet* for this cache today. A number of younger kids were just down the creek sliding down the muddied embankment before sliding into the water. It looked like such a great idea on this hot day.

Enjoyed the short walk and pleased for another muggle free cache considering our experience at the Sale Clocktower. Easy find, despite being in plain sight, it's quite well hidden!

Quick grab ..very cool

Quick find...a crazy dude was flipping out on the road nearby... decided might be best to get away...

Found at 1350hrs whilst on a caching day with Undies.
Log still a little wet.

1305h. Not so creepy. Just as well the rain hasn't been as bad as the MET said. Don't know about stocking the place with fish.

A bit of a walk, but a good cache worth a look.
Thanks

Found @1420 Hrs after doing some work on a telco instalation nearby.
Log was still damp but was able to sign only just.

Found today at 1000

Nice and easy find.

Log was saturated though and made it hard to sign.

Thanks for the cache,

VKC1SR

Log is saturated... will need replacing.

On a caching run with KI Bug, as they had already found it they left it to Marian and I. Followed the GPSr right to GZ when Marian said is that it and sure enough cache was in hand, thanks again Piglet*.

The dog over the creek kept barking at me while I signed the log. Then the dog's owner came out and asked if I was fishing. "No", I said. Then he wandered off.. TFTC.

Great hiding spot! My second cache for the day!
Lots of muggles swimming upstream! Be very careful!

Not too hard to find but I was wet and the inside damp! Really needs to be dried out but not while we were there! Interesting location but not creepy. Thanks piglet

Lovely little walk! Loved it. However the log sheet is very damp, and needs replacing...

Cool hide!!!!
Log book VERY wet and really no opportunity to dry it out.
Still trying to work out why there are bags of mandarins lying around near GZ!

Grabbed this today on return from a funeral in town. Then the long journey back to Canberra. Farewell Noel, Farewell Traralgon - will come back to see you both again one day. TNLN, TFTC

Found 200807160837 . Down in Traralgon for work I took the opportunity to climb a stile and have a walk by the not so creepy creek

The mild tree cover had me checking a few spots before the surprisingly obvious cache was spotted

TNLN

Cheers piglet*

hard one to find only found by chance great little spot

thanks from team cruiser

This is a creepy looking spot.

These micro ones are always hard to find, this time by sheer accident someone was looking up from the creek edge

Thanks Piggy

Auskiller

Interesting hiding spot. Found easily. Thanks.

This one took me a while to find - but really it shouldn't have! I was a bit disappointed with myself for not spotting this one sooner. This cache has recently been underwater, as the nearby debris clearly indicates - but because today was so hot, I had no trouble at all drying out the cache and logsheet! SL at 2pm. TFTC and the hunt.

Found this one on our holiday trip on the way to Melbourne.
The weather was fine and caching down under was great fun for us.

Stopped by to find on the way down to Melbourne for Xmas. Easy to find, log book is very sodden especially after recent heavy rain.

a quick cache on the way home from a weekend in Sale. found this one while again utilising my unique Ninja Caching skills and nabbed the cache under the nose of a couple of young muggles fishing. Log was a tad soggy, but ok if handled with care. The next finder might be able to put in a silca pouch to help dry it out a bit better.

15th find with Geojess Sandar10 and Oenze rambling we will go.
thanks to piglet for a quick dash to ground zero

Fifteenth of Sixteen for the day on our Morwell Caching Weekend with Highrod and Oenze and geoJess(woof)

Find # 1835 and 13th of the second day at about 3:15pm. Accompanied by Highrod,Sandar10 and GeoJessWoof on our long weekend to Moe and beyond. Easy find but the log was all wet. TNLN, Signed Log, Thanx Piglet*....

Found @13:55
Judging by the detritus in the tree, this cache has survived being underwater during the recent flooding. I can't believe it hasn't washed away. Log damp and needs some TLC.

Another easy find following the well worn track. Found without trouble at 1530 hrs.
Signed log, TFTC piglet.

Found at 14:00. An easy find following a well worn track. The cobwebs are more creepy then the creek. Thanks

Members of Morwell State emergency service found this cache while on a GPS training exercise. Thanks for your assistance in training the members of this vital service.

An easy find in a not so creepy place. Walking track was easily found due to trampled down grass. Got to GZ quickly.
Thanks for the cache piglet*

After a brief walk along creepy creek we soon found the secluded area and the cache spot.Thanks to piglet.

I liked this one...it could keep you guessing for a while but it gave up its secret without too much resistance

not so creepy, however the long grass on the walking track helped with locating this cache. Previous cachers had trampled the unmown grass, making tracking a breeze.

Nice spot.. Found today at 11am Got to GZ and had the cache withing a minute....

0030 re-logging due to name change

This was our fifth find for the day while on a caching extravaganza with the Coffees. As the Coffee Clan had previously found this one, Mr Coffee remained with the cars while we headed off with Mystery Inc and Mini Cacher 1. The GPSr gods were very kind to us today as we walked straight to it and the clever little cache was in our hands eventually once CrackerDad's nubile fingers rose to the task. The container was slightly damp so we dried it out as much as possible before replacing it.
Thanks for the cache piglet*.

Was on my way to Miner's View and noticed it as I passed. Stopped on way back for a nice little walk and a sneaky hide. GPS up the creek (and it was tempting to put it there). Thank you.

Quick find on a nice little stretch of creek. Co-ords are spot on as they had me straight onto GZ. Thanks PIGLET* for a good cache.

Short but plesant walk along creek. Grass starting to grow.A bit surprised at hide not quite where we expected it to be.

Found myself on the correct side of the creek, and then the good coordinates had me at the clever little hide, guarded by an ex-cicada. Thanks piglet* for another good one.

Enjoyed the walk along the creek. Good hide
An easy find at 7:45pm. On my way up to the Gold Coast, then over to Mt Isa. Signed log. Thanks for the hunt Piglet.

Found it with Wasptor, great hide, TFTC

Was heading back for dinner and noticed this wasn't too far out of the way. Nice easy find. TFTC

Was down in Gippsland chasing fires this week but had a day off so what better way to spend a day than caching.
A quick easy find and of course no swaps in a little cache like this.
Many thanks.

Found this one ok.
Signed log.

I was expecting more of a battle here with gps readings but the coords were spot on and I had your unusual hide in hands straight aaway. thanks piglet.

Found at 12:00. This one was way too hard, we wee sear5ching for almost an hour before we found the Cache.

A nice access for walking path in the recreational creek. Thanks for the little gem in the area and the cache.

Bit tricky this one, but after a little lateral thinking it was soon in hand.
Many thanks.

Nice walk along the river from What the...log. And more green grass. TFTC

Found by Joe Possum and visitors. The creek had crept up a bit after the rain. But still a pleasant spot. Should come back for a spot of trout fishing some day. Thanks Piglet.

Dear Piglet,

We found your cache today at 1:50pm as the tenth of fifteen on our Gippsland Power Play Day. We thought that this one might be a tough find, but luckily we located it in the third place checked. Thanks for the cache.

Kind Regards,

D,H & A B-A

A nice easy one to find. Placed in an interesting spot Found at 5.45pm TNLN. Thanks Piglet

Did this one in the dark for an added degree of difficualty on my way to work @1815hrs
Thanks

This cache has been checked out and is OK, so it's enabled once again.

Not sure why this is "unavailable". Visiting friends in Carrajong Sth, we couldn't miss the opportunity, and easily it found right on the GPS button. Seemed secure enough although as noted earlier the log is a bit damp (and getting full). A nice one Piglet, compared to another one of yours later in the day.

Nice quick find. Location spot on. Log OK now although it has obviously been wet in the past. Thanks Piglet

Found without problem. cache is ok but log a bit damp.
thanks piglet

Found by edmil & maddie. After staying over in Yarragon after a wedding we decided to nip down to Taralgon before meeting the rest of the group for brunch & pick this one up (and anymore in the area). Find was quick & easy. Thanks for the micro.

I am temporarily disabling this cache as I can't get there to fix it in the near future. If there are any caches in the area in the mean time that could lend a had i would appreciate it. sorry for the inconvenience. Piglet

Found 16:40, a nice easy find as we returned home from a long weekend away.

TNLN, thanks piglet*.

The fixing device has deteriorated and the cache is no longer able to be securely attached to where it was originally placed.

Found at 1.50pm GAFF1. This area is not creepy at all! A pleasant walk and a quick find, however it was not where it was supposed to be. We looked around and then found where the cache should have been placed and noticed that the weather has deteriorated the fastening device. This cache needs some maintenance. Thanks piglet*

I have been driving this town for ages but have never been to this part before,so stopped on my way through to the Caravan and camping expo this afternoon. An easy find. You chose an interesting way to secure the cache. Thanks Piglet

Nearly had to swim for it (started on the wrong side). Nice little hide.
