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.

The construction works are nearly done, will fix this up soon.

Got to check this out.
 
16-Feb-12
Looked and looked for this one Sad
 
13-Feb-12
When I searched I searched everywhere and this cache hasn't been found since the second of October last year. With the constuction nearby I think it's gone.
Could the owner please confirm that it's either there or not, I've been anxtious to find this one.
 
22-Jan-12
No sign of it.
 
21-Jan-12
That is a few DNF's in a row might need checking
 
14-Jan-12
This one appears to be gone.
 
29-Oct-11
Searched for a bit.

Construction site nearby, I wonder if that has an effect?

Found the "tree" but nothing around and no need to "fence it".
 
02-Oct-11
Managed to find the gap - didnt help that the grass was wet! So close, but so far! Cache found quickly after waiting out some muggles. TFTC
 
27-Sep-11
This ended up being a bit of a walk for us to get around the creek but it wasn't to cold tonight and so it was nice to get out for a night walk with miss Stormcatcher. Once we got to GZ we came across an unexpected obstacle and a bit of commando skill was required as the cache is currently protected by a nice perimeter fence which I really think should get us a few more difficulty stars lol anyway even with all the activity in the area the cache was still safe and we logged our visit and continued on our night walk . TFTC
 
21-Aug-11
Quick night ride round the suburbs...
Cycling gear did not appreciate the tight squeeze through the only gap in the fencing i could find...

Will be interesting to see how the construction turns out for this area...

19-Aug-11
Currently has a construction fence around the whole area, there is a gap you can fit through however. I got the cache, but unfortunately had no pen, so couldn't sign. TFTC
 
13-Aug-11
Lol, we found the clearing and looked around for at least 20 minutes before we read the previous logs. Yep we agree with previous logs, we think this one has gone missing with the advent of the work being carried out in the vicinity.
Sad
 
22-Jul-11
Looks like this one is gone, probably whne the workmen put up their fence around the flying foxes.
 
22-Jul-11
Looks like this one is gone. Maybe when they put the renovation fence around the flying foxes.
 
15-Jul-11
We looked everywhere but couldn't find it. From reading the past logs, it might have been well hidden, so might come back here one day.Sad
 
02-Jul-11
Out on a caching run with caching mate Slink1. Quick find today. TFTC SL
 
02-Jul-11
Quick find...was actually aiming for a gnome (that wasn't there) but found this instead. I think there's probably an orange pen close to it also coz by the time I got to the "http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=43e8e94a-1c64-4685-98ed-0cdf7ec54815">
Place for Dogs (which Elvis quite liked) I didn't have it no more. Hmmmm...

Quick find on a fine day out caching with my mate Dunko while in Canberra TFTC SL

Maybe not just yet, I'll be sure to replace this.......

12-Feb-11
This cache is definitely gone. Found an arrangement of stones at the base of a tree with no cache and no sign of one. Not sure what the last finder claimed that they found....
 
12-Feb-11
Apparently this is missing
 
16-Jan-11
Found and logged at 12:05, One of 15 caches found on my day of caching in the ACT
The cache container is cracked an in need of raplacing as the log is full of water
TNLN TFTC
 
04-Jan-11
Found remnants, no container or log book!
 
30-Oct-10
Found after a walk from the carpark. It is all very wet due to a cracked lid. TFTC
 
04-Oct-10
Log book is still soaked, guess it won't dry in the ziplock bag. Left a possum. TFTC
 
22-Sep-10
good find TFTC
 
18-Sep-10
Found. Log book still soaked but managed to sign it. TFTC
 
18-Sep-10
Good find but the log was still saturated, managed to write in it but it should probably be replaced.
 
05-Sep-10
Tftc
 
04-Sep-10
I did find it but the rain over the past two days and the broken lid on the container has taken its toll. There was no pen but the notebook was soaked anyway so I am not in the log.
 
27-Jul-10
I had absolutely no trouble finding this one - the lid was some distance from the cache, and the container was exposed.
The lid is cracked.
There were no swaps in the cache, and no trackable.
I added a couple of stampers for swaps, signed the log, and put the container back together. I also put the container where I think it lives, and put a pile of rocks on top of it.

Looking at previous logs, I think perhaps some children know where this one is now, and it might be time to move it a bit.

 
25-Jul-10
Found easily enough, the cache was somewhat wet.
After tipping out all water, signed the log and replaced.
TFTC
NO TB WAS FOUND.
 
18-Jul-10
found the cache signed the log, this was my first find
 
18-Jul-10
Found this one with "wackyroger", signed new log book.

Huge unhappy face here Sad( I did find the cache, well part of it and some of the cache notes which were ripped up. Found the lid of the cache near the flying fox and didn't find the rest of the container or anything else. Sorry folks but this one has been well and truly muggled Sad
 
19-Jun-10
This cache has been muggled, I have the lid only and some of the cache notes. Sad
 
19-Jun-10
Look like this needs to be replaced.
 
13-Jun-10
First cache of the day after scraping the ice off my windscreen. Very cool morning but its never too cold to cache. Walked past a gentleman walking his three beagles but that's a story for the next cache (Creek Crossing)
A stranger once said to ManGecko (as SheGecko was playing on the swings) "Do we stop playing cos we get old or do we get old cos we stop playing?" Get onto the slippery slide people and work this one out for yourself. Wish the other toy was still in action! Great cache spot! TFTH Smile

A very pleasant walk under our umbrellas. Pity the fun police have spoilt this spot for the kids! It needs to be fixed up and the placed used again. Nice find and could be a bit wet now.
 
13-Feb-10
A nice walk on a rainy day. TFTC
 
28-Jan-10
Quick find with poor signal
 
11-Jan-10
'Twas dark and the moon, a bare sliver, was still skimming the horizon.
Creaping from a near by DNF we hadn't used the torches so as not to draw attention to ourselves.
We set the two dogs to guard the path and sought the cache.
Instant gratification.

Thanks

Nice, easy find.

05-Jan-10
The container is no longer waterproof; the logs are protected in bags, but the cache has a little bit of water in it.
 
02-Jan-10
The near by park was a welcome break for the kids in a geocaching afternoon. tftc!
 
13-Dec-09
easy cache tftc
 
20-Nov-09
Nice easy Cache, Got there just before the rain. TFTC
 
17-Nov-09
Sometimes what you think is going to be an easy one makes you do some hard yards. Of course, this may be cause I was in a hurry and wasn't concentrating but there you go.

Puddle kid and Puddle teen were with me on this one and despite the moaning and groaning about the grass seeds in their shoes, a good time was had by all.

11-Nov-09
Had a lovely walk, crossing the creek using the stepping stone blocks and then wandered up to the cache. sat for a minute to savour the moment, then back to the car for some more caching fun. TNSL, TFTC Smile

Took some newbies for their first experience and found the cache after a nice walk through this park. All the grass is very long after all the rain. Following some comments by other cachers we took a new log book, sharpened the pencil, and put the stuff in a new ziplock bag. Hopefully it will stay dry now. Left car. Took pirates spy glass and a kinder surprise puzzle. TFTC.
 
24-Oct-09
Forgot to mention that I dipped some trackables to log some miles.
 
24-Oct-09
Found this cache in this lovely park. Boy do the lawnmowers need to come here. They must be short of lawnmowing funds. There were quite a few of the "clue" so we kept thinking: Oh, that must be it. TFTC. SL.
 
This was our first find, very exciting great to see what its all about will be looking out for things to swap for future caches

[:) nice find for my first find felt like dog chaceing his tail kids had fun it was something different to do and get out side
thanks for the adventure
cheers
 
11-Oct-09
A nice good walk through the suburbs from my place to get this cache. Next time I should see which side of the creek the cache is located at in order to avoid adding extra mileage to my feet Wink. Cache log book is quite damp and getting mouldy. Probably recommend getting a new log book and a new ziplock bag for protection. TNLN TFTC.
 
11-Oct-09
Log book was extremely wet, ended up trying to write on the log book on the back cardboard page cause the pen wasn't working and the pencil I had didn't like it either.

TFTC
 
11-Oct-09
found this one but the log is very wet, had to write on the cardboard.
 
03-Sep-09
Log is wet so be careful writing in it. Left a present for the next dog owner. TFTC
 
31-Aug-09
Log was a bit wet but still managed to sign it. T: dice, wrist band and magnet man. L: octopus, squid and telescope. TFTC
 
29-Aug-09
Another nice walk to this cache. Was vigilant with the magpies but they didn't bother me so I shouldn't have worried. An easy find at GZ. TFTC!
 
28-Aug-09
Heading for a WP from A-Z Canberra Tours and this cache was too close to pass up. And the geohounds needed another leg stretch, so joy all around. Sara held the dogs while I signed the log, TFTC

What a great walk along the creek across the bridges to a very obvious GZ Big Grin How in the blazes has that not got muggled??
Very enjoyable cache to do

Found with Badja Jnr. Close to home. Had to go around to get there after recent rain. On the way back we had to ford the stream. Sad there arent any flying foxes any more.
 
20-Jun-09
Easy find, replaced with a little more subtle camo as was very obvious to any muggles passing by....

Walked here straight after brewing up a fresh batch of Marsupial Casserole, and by the time I found it, was ready to go home and rest.
Nice area though, and a good hide.

It was CRAZY hot out looking for this one. If I had thought about it, 38 Degrees was probably too hot to go after this cache, but, stupid ole me, I did it anyway!

Fortunately it was a quick find.

Found with Gigs74 - her 1st cache (applause). Although a stupendous moment, it was a quick tag and release as a muggle was striding the nearby pavement Smile
 
30-Nov-08
This was a really nice bike path and I would have loved to continue on - but the cache list said otherwise.

In any case, thanks for having brought me here to JazzzaXtreme - Fogg

[Found it but unless I was suffering domestic blindness] as I frequently do [could not find the travel bug!] Sad. TNLN
