looked for it for ages. Can it be updated to say archived as i use GSAK and exclude archived caches and it still returned in my results.
TIA

Judging by all the logs this one is gone. Can the cache be checked or archived if no longer able to maintain?
In the area today looking for some other caches and Shell had a look for this one and she had no luck again. Reading the logs looks like it has been removed.
Was to be our first cache for the long weekend but not to be. There has been a lot of water through the area but we couldn't find the cache.
Our new 60CSx took us straight to the cache. We put in a small lock and two keys. Took nothing. It looks as if the access from the park to the cache may be being cut off by a new fence that is being built. Take mosquito repellant.
Another nice park that we might re-visit in cooler weather. No muggles in sight due to 40+ temperature. Log book rather damp.
Took frog, left Ping Pong Ball.

We were in the area (dropped off one of "The Crew" at a Scout Camp), so I arranged to do some caching on the way home.
We had to get past a whole heap of Grey Muggles having a stop at the little shack. We counted 7 MGs (cars) from a range of years.
Beautiful spot!
We left a toy frog (thought it was appropriate) and the Geocoin and took the magnets.
Thanks for the Cache

Riding the motorbike back from Timber Top we thought to have a go at this one. Anne on back of the bike with GPS in hand counting down the meters when we ran out of road, parked the bike and off on foot We located the cache, actually I located it but because Anne reached in she claimed the cache after some discussion we agreed a team effort. We signed the book and placed it back. nice area and bit of country
Nice quick find. Plenty of water nearby too.
The cache was still a little damp inside but much better than Madstars reported and the Log was now quite dry.

Found after a bit of searching. The cache was half filled with water - dried it out as best we could, however log book may need replacing. TN - left farm animal toys and signed soggy log. Stopped for a picnic lunch in the nearby park. Our daughter keep freaking us out as she kept pointing and saying "SNAKE DADDY'.
Nice quiet place, found easy enough, log paper slightly damp but usable, took Red Jeep TB to move it along. TFTC
Yep, I see it
But before stepping out of the geomobile this morning I had to pile on the layers of clothing. At 7.30am there was a bitterly cold breeze blowing across the area [:o]
So it was with numb fingers and toes that I struggled to scrawl me name in the log book after extracting the cache from deep within it's hidey hole
TFTC, I dropped in a Red Jeep TB in this Yota cache

Yep found the cache, the new position did not affect our search, water is still high as it is everywhere in the Hunter!
3rd cache for the day - thanks.

Took a bit of searching for but got there in the end. Due to recent rain and flooding in the area, the cache was submerged in water. Suprisingly the log was quite dry. After signing the log I repositioned the cache up out of the water. The co-ords will still be acurate.

Found this one after a little bit of searching.
And.... I hope this to be my last geocache find using a TomTom. This was also the worst the TomTom has ever done. It took me up Fisher Close, which is like 500m away from the actual cache, and not even in eye sight of the Park that it's in. But I eventually got there, through a bit of 'dated' local knowledge.
TNLN, thanks for the find.

cheers

Really cool park. I loved some of the buildings, it’s certainly worth a stop. The cache itself wasn't a walk up start either so all in all a good one. This was out 300th Cache Yipeeee !!

Nice park but a bit damp after all the rain. After our last encounter with mozzies we broke out the Aeroguard and after nearly gassing ourselves we figured if it did not stop the mozzies it would keep any passer by from getting too close.
After a bit of poking around found a very sneaky hidden cache but everything is a bit damp.

Found after a 5min search. Nice spot but a few too many mozzies for my liking. Thanks anyway.
Found this one after mucking around in the wrong spot for 5 minutes. Took nothing and left nothing.
Little wet i dried it out as best i could.
Thanks for the hunt.

Well at least its still there, I will still have to get back out there and dry it out a little.
Yes, it's there but was rather wet due to all the recent rain. TN. Left pre-decimal coin. Signed log book. TFTC.
The hiding place was easy to spot from a distance but the recent rain made getting to it a little trickier without damp toes.

This our second find and surprised to find two travel bugs. We took one and left the other. Will deposit in my next cache

3rd find for the day.
Took a short walk down the path and spotted the likely hiding place from a short distance away.
I was puzzled for a while as to why the cache didn't agree with me as to where it should be sitting, then said bugger it and looked in the less likely places. Voila!
Cache in hand, I was set upon by a pack of little Rats who promptly swapped some change and a rubber ball for a lockset and gel pen. Also dropped off the Seal of Approval TB (one of the 2 TBs the previous log mentioned).
This is a generally nice park, but could be so much better if some maintenance and/or restoration work was done for the facilities.
Thanks.

Returning from Sydney to New England via Thunderbolds Way and decided to detour and find a cache. Beautiful area and very neat Park. Thank you for the cache. We took Travel bug and left a Geocoin "Lord of the Rings" hoping to make its way to New Zealand. Cache in good order. Plumtree Wanderers
Found the cache early this evening, just as the moon was rising....it came up beautifully and could be seen, almost orange as it peeped through the trees.
I was visiting the area for my niece's wedding (yesterday) and enrolled the help of another niece (with a car) and a visiting relative-in-law from the UK. The "girls" aged 16 and 23 drove off with me leaving the other 14 rellies behind drinking beer and wine.
The cache was a great easy find for the niece who grabbed it without thinking what might be in that deep, dark hole! She was stoked at her first find and is trying to think of ways she can participate more without her own GPS.
Took the Geocoin and thong key-ring (for the UK visitor) and left a travel bug. It would have helped the bug greatly if the visiting rellies were into caching or knew of others who were....but it was not to be.
Thanks for a great cache! PS wear boots!

Had to visit the area to get Micro-Mix’s feet molded so we dropped by this cache Took ‘can’t remember’ left coin and stuff. TFTH.

This is an excellent roadside park to visit. Very pleasant spot to tarry a while - an easy stroll in a wetlands type locale with its consequent population of birdlife.......and a cache to boot. What more could a passing through cacher desire. Just up the road there is a bird observation hide. Well worth the visit whilst one is in the area. At this time of year there were literally thousands of cattle egrets nesting in the swamp fringing trees.
Did no swaps today but picked up the geocoin and will deposit somewhere equally as nice in the next week or two. Thanks Team Yota for showing us this lovely spot.

On my way to Paterson after spending a few days at Tea Gardens so took the slow road. Nice park in a nice location. Thanks for taking me to another new location. Left WIld n Free Geocoin.
Not difficult. Found at the end of the day in fading light, with owner looking on. TFTC
Woot! First to find! Moved on the Aussie Travel Bug, left batteries. Thanks for the hunt, lovely area. I suspect this cache may have been recently inundated by water, though was dry inside.
