No response from owner. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Knew this was a tricky one, and as it was on the archive hit list, thought I would take one last chance to see if I could revive it!!

Unfortunatly wasn't able to achieve it, not sure it is "gone", I just couldn't find it!

Thanks happyharries, hope it is still there!!

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.

No replies to calls for maintennance. This one needs to fall asleep.

This one hasn't been found for quite a while. Can you confirm whether it is still there?

Aussie Liahona and I had a good look but were not inclined to spend any more time when we saw thisone has not been found (or maintained) for so long. If it was on the ground it is probably gone. Perhaps someone could make a decision on this one?

This one eluded us this morning. Wondering if it is still there. Took geodog for a swim afterwards. All is not lost.

Three pairs of eyes, a remarkable number of spiders in webs, but no luck finding the cache here today. Another time, perhaps.

No luck on thios one for me today, i got sick of the Indian minor that kept swooping me, so I moved on.

Had to look realy hard for this one ,the colour of the cache blended in beautiful

went looking for cache late yesterday without any luck but found today so much easier to find in day light TFTC Duggstr

This one escaped us yet again . Will return !

3rd time lucky! Cache was totally exposed so moved slightly - still exposed but camouflaged better from muggles

First find

Yay awsome find much easier in daylight

Went rustling about in the bushes with the wife in the dark no less. Did not find it will have to go back in the daylight. Dang it!

Got there in the end. Thanks!

Have been here twice now and couldn't find No gps and have checked google earth but still no luck. I know that I'm pretty close but just can't find it. Will try again this week.

5.15pm - While out for a few quick Mothers Day cache finds, came to this place as Rhesusfactor has tried many a time to find but couldn't. We searched around all the likely places and moved further afield and back; only by coming from a different angle did I spy it! Yay.... I found it! It is hard to look for something when you don't know what you are looking for! Clever hide, well done! TFTC.

thats crap, the cache is a good 5m+ from the GZ that trimble consistently puts me at.

log is full. signed the back.

had a good luck for this but had no luck one will try again.

Found by Mary & David at 0920. A quick find as we know this style. Another nice park. Our thanks to happyharries.

Had no hope with this one. GPS was jumping all around, and it was too hot to use much brainpower. Having now read the logs, seems I should have been looking for something I may not have been. Confused me this one.

Clever hide! Took a little while to figure it out. TFTC happyharries

Found at 1012 with Marg. A quick find away from nearby muggles. Cache OK and dry. TFTC.

I stood near GZ and looked for quite a while in all directions, then moved and looked a bit further out before finally seeing it where I had looked several times before . Signed the log. TFTC happyharries

Again i return to Glindemann, again the GPS sends me to the same tree with the same pieces of string on the branches and again i cant find the bloody thing after an hour of looking.

i hate you glindemann

someone PM me a hint.

Needs a new log book, hidden in plain sight

found with farcestudios and esp, easy find once GPS settled down, will need a new log book soon

Strolled to this one from Chief Mott back to where we were staying for a few days in Brisbane. For some reason we didn't realise this was a micro unitl later - no wonder it took us a little while to find it, but find it we did on the cusp of conceding defeat.

found on my second attempt, this time with anddad

Found at 1500Hrs with bluegonz. Looks like the area around GZ has received some gardening work in the not too distant past and now the cache is probably a bit easier to find. Thanks happyharries.

No pollen. No muggles. No cache. . . . oh, hang on a minute, there it is! Found with DisSister. TFTC

someones gonna need to hold my hand for this one. i still cant find the bloody thing.

We were glad to see that GZ was a little away from the muggle rich areas of the park. We tried this one twice today, once in the morning and then again a couple of hours later after we got some help from a previous finder. Though the information we got from her wasn't too accurate! We had it in hand within seconds the second time. I don't know why we missed it the first time. I'm sure we looked there. Good hide. TFTC

After getting covered in pollen on our entry to cache we were looking for around 5 minutes but then I thought outside the square. 10 seconds later we had cache in hand. TFTH

Undercover Duo

Oh my God lots of muggles and we lucky found with friend and dog... good hide!!!!

Bloody pollen things everywhere. The gps didnt settle down and nowhere i looked yielded any clues. I eventually found a hole in a tree and thought i saw a tiny cache stahed in it.
I was wrong. It was a hornet.
I cut my losses and fled.

a clever hide not far from where i was staying on my trip to qld! found with auzzie convict and little crispy tftc

Was almost going to give up on this one.. and there it was. Greate cache.

Found it No. 1716 ... good hide .. TNLN

After managing to park along side this cache, it took a little scouring to find the booty...

I went in blind for the first 10 minutes or so then headed back to the Gunniemobile for the hint. Back in to the trees thinking I knew what I might be looking for, it turns out that I was not even close...

Nice hide. I left wondering what the hint meant however???

Cheers

Sat is a busy day for familys in this park so subtlety was required. Thanks!

I had barely started scouring GZ when Jeset spotted this one! Great little park!

Was my second visit and this time, after some searching, I did not leave empty handed A good hide, TFTC!

YEAH!!! Our third attempt and we finally found this slippery little sucker. Mind you our past two attempts have been at night so I am not surprised we missed it on both occasions. The placement of this cache is quite unique indeed - don't see too many of these around. TFTC. ..eatmorchikin & Stigglepot

Lovely park here. Great for family picnic!
Been searching for a while.. finally found it. phew!
TFTC

Haleluja I have found it... We go to this park all the time as we live next to it, and I have a poke around each time. This time I thought sod it I am going to find it!!!! And I did there was no divine intervention or Clues just thought about where would I hide it..

Thanks for the cahe even if it did cause so stress in my life.. But no more HaHa...

Sinninen64

found it thanks

Accompanied with my friend PatO. Her first use the GPS and coordinate is spot. SL. Thanks happyharries for organising the cache and hunt.

found with Zenelf now I don`t believe in divine intervention but when we were about to give up on this one a ray of sunlight broke through the leaves lit up the cache much to our surprise just shows he is a cacher to....lol
TFTC TNLN SL

found with Claeton so read his log because I still don`t believe it but it did happen
TFTC TNLN SL

2nd attemp and a no go GPS got too 2 foot away can the owner varify if it is still there. 4 of us had a 45 min look, Also there are lots of spiders in the bushes not a nice thing to find especially when they are huge

Sinninen64

Arrived miday park was packed I also use this park a lot but I must confess I did not find the cache nor have any idea where it may be. GPS sent me in a bunch of trees by the creek then it went all over the place. No idea what clue is refering to so I will need to do this again at some point.

Sinninen64

Our first of four caches today. Arrived at the park and found it crawling with muggles. Engaged stealth mode and I think I got in and out without drawing too much attention to myself.
Took a little bit of searching but cache in hand fairly quickly at 11:26am (Ant24 got this one while i was soaking up some sun on the grass).

Finally! After too many unsuccessful attempt, I can tick this off the list. When I approached GZ tonight there were kids everywhere with torches - had to time my search attempts carefully. Still no find, so called a previous finder, and voila! How can you be so blind!
My 800th find!
TFTC

Found ok this time after a 10 min search. Still don't get the clue I'm afraid. TNLN, thanks Happyharries

Well, this would have to be the smallest cache I've seen.
Nicely hidden. The kids and I had a good challenge finding it, but were able to do so in about 45 minutes.
The terrain was easy and the park itself is one we've visited before many times. A good place for a picnic before hunting for the cache.

My second DNF on this cache - GZ sort of settled this time, but I simply couldn't find it.

#7 of 12 finds on my first day in Brisbane; second last trip for the year. I found this one at 1735. It took a bit of finding, but the coordinates were absolutely spot on. [^] Then I had a heck of a time extracting the log, and I was cursing the last cacher for pushing it right in there. However, when it came my turn to replace the log, I withdrew my curses. Just the same, I hope it will be a little easier for the next cacher. I made no exchange. Thanks to happyharries for the cache. Cheers, dak.

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Jinga at 11:28am. I have looked for this cache before and today it was still quite tough to find. The co-ords are absolutely spot-on though; just blind that's all. Glad it is now off my to-find list. TNLNSL TFTC

Couldn't find this one this afternoon, and I spent a fair bit of time in the bushes looking I might add. The GPS was all over the place - the first time I have ever followed the arrow and the distance has increased. However, I knew I was in the vicinity, and as a previous finder had no GPS, this was no excuse. I will have to return. I lived near here up until about 2 years ago, and I was amazed to see how much the trees have grown. Thanks happyharries for the visit.

Fifth of many cache's today. Great hide, I have to find out where you get those container's from?? TNLNSL. TFTC.

Searched this one out with my mother, she's now hooked!

I don't have a GPS and so I find these simply by using the google earth link and looking where the arrow points to. Your arrow was a little off, but others I've found in the past have been pretty much spot on.

All in all, a very nice cache! very well hidden!

Happy we found it on our first attempt!

No idea where this one could be. GZ was jumping by 10m.

Failed attempt #2
...eatmorchikin & Stigglepot

Finaly found this little sucker,[^] 3rd time lucky. Yay!
Thanks for the hard find looked everywhere, but we were determined. No muggles to hide from this time, it was quiet supprisingly.
happy hunting the next geocachers.
nicnick out!!

Found a second trip. GPS had me just a few metres different today & eagle-eyed geokid found the cache in about 2 seconds. He then raced off to the playground to elaev me to work out how to carefully open the cache. TFTC. And it is a great playground.

We stayed across the road from this one. I could walk to it. I have not stayed so close to one before.
It was a great park. My kids would have loved it.

Walked in there briefly a couple of week ago (mothers day) and their were too many people around so I left it until today. Took a short time and a little bit of thought and all was revealed.
Thankyou happyharries for this cache.

Once the GZ settled down this little gem revealed itself. Takes a little wisdom to pick this one - or was that a little luck TFTC Very nice hide indeed

aaaargh!,new it would be there somewhere!phew,coords are pretty good too!thanks HH.

Couldnt find this one (yet), had a good look. To many muggles around not a good day for looking. So ill be back.
Tryed to get help from some one whos found it b4, but not easy discribing it over the phone. Any way well be back.

DNF @ 9:42pm

Well, that's taken us down a peg or two. We parked within meters of GZ but that was about as good at it got for us on this visit. I do feel better after reading the logs; seems, hardly anyone finds this one on their first try. A nice spot though and there was even water in the creek. cebidae /almost / slipped and fell in but so such luck. Apparently this caching trip only has room for one klutz...

DNF 1 of 10 attempts for the night. Mloe and I didn't find this one, but it appears that is de rigueur for this cache at least. How the dark side trembles at our attack so far .

A little bit older, a little bit wiser and more experienced and so it was an easy find (this time)

Our 9th find of 33 caches for the day. Nearly gave up on this one, one last look yea found it, excellent hide!

TNLN

Went straight to it this time.
Cheers from the Posspet Boys.

Had a look but didn't look for a Micro so that might be the reason why.
Cheers from the Posspet Boys

Finally! The first time I visited I think this had gone missing. Second time we couldn't find it. Third time lucky. This time I knew what I was looking for and pretty much found it straight away. TFTC.

Our second visit to this one - this time we had success. thanks happyharries

Nice spot and nicely hidden cache. TNLNSL. TFTC.

Rode past and remembered that we had forgotton about this one -no GPS , just a distsnt memory of where and what it was-Bingo , we found it after quick search-had to race over to shops to purchase a pen though so we could could actually log it.
TFTC

Somewhat fortunately I took a friend with me on this one. He'd never been caching before and while I looked in the wrong spots I heard those dreaded words, "is this what we're looking for?" Don't you hate amateurs?

Nice placement, happyharries. It's a bit of a fiddle to remove the cache, so be gentle with it. TN/LN/SL.

Muggle central around here today mid morning. Must be school holidays
A read of the clues and a flashback to a couple of recent cache finds had me thinking. "I bet I know where and what I'm looking for" [8)]
Sure enough I found it after about 5mins
I'm sure I won't feel so smug after trying to find my next HH's cache [:o]

The clues for this cache have also been adjusted.
Happy hunting.
Happyharries.

Do the clues still aply to the new location?? I had trouble with this. Thanks

Obviously the locals thought this was a great cache as they have taken it.Have changed the locaction hence the updated co-ordinates.this is now a micro and more difficult to locate so you may wish to revisit this one.

New co-ordinates due to relocation of cache.

Couldn't find it either. Maybe looking in the wrong place but it was very wet and lots of rubbish around. I did find an empty zip lock bag?

There has been some serious water flow through here recently... Couldnt find it

Time: 10:10
Time to Find: dnf
Cache Condition: ????
Note: I found the cache site easily, parked the car close by and made the short walk over to ground zero. The gardens were beautiful. Soon after arriving a frilled necked lizard appeared from the under brush and rested to stare at me about 3 feet from where I was standing. It’s been so long since I’ve seen one that I stood mesmerized … I had my camera with me but didn’t get it out to take some pics until it was too late and the lizard had disappeared into the gardens once more. Missed my chance!!! I searched for the cache for about 10 mins, but I couldn’t seem to find it! I even got the gps to zero at 3 ft, but the terrain rating where I was more a 3 than 1 ½ listed on the cache page! I moved my search location after a few mins to accommodate the listed terrain rating, but still no dice! Oh well … win some and lose some. No matter … I had a great time here all the same. Thanks for getting me out this way today.
Happy Hunting!

Hmmm pretty obvious place. It was a little exposed when we found this, so we covered it a little better. TNLN TFTC

Came on it from the wrong angle but found it easily. TNLN. The playground looks like a massive expense. Is there an election coming??.

Second to walk to it?
Found with a friend on our morning walk with only a slight detour from the regular route required.
Took us a while to actually locate it. No swaps, signed log.
Thanks for the hunt.

Quickly stopped to grab this as I was going past. Had to use stealth as muggles where playing basketball.
TNLN

Maybe not the first to find, but probably the first to walk from home to find it. When they come up at .58 km from home coordinates there is really no excuse.
Also thanks for the log idea, I needed something like that for some micros I plan to do later in the year.
TNLNSL
Thanks for putting a cache here, we walk by several times a week so will keep an eye on it.
GEOBLASK

A nice quick find on our way home from a day of "East Side" caching.

Left a keyring and took nothing. SL. TFTC!
