As there's been no cache to find for months, 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 the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

7 months have passed since "will replace soon" log. Suggest if not to be maintained then it should be archived. If owner will maintain it soon, then maybe we can find it and log it.

Dropped in here today didn't realise it was unavailable as we are on holidays, Oh well at least that explains why we couldn't find it...

washed away.. will replace soon. Sorry.

Just went to drop off a geocoin and pick up travel bug but couldn't find the cache. There are a few stubbies there instead.

Been to look for this one on many occasions hoping that it not in place due to floods. Just like stop the world only found beer bottles.

Found it, hollow hard to get into, no little geo climbers around. lots of mud around have to wash the car now, great day out thanks.TNLN.

This Cache will be replaced at the end of the wet season,, Flood damaged.

Floods or Muggles took the cache away.. Will replenish after the wet season.

Nice easy find and made easier as there was no one around as it was raining.
Took car and left Subaru Fan Club pin. SL. TFTC.

Easy find.
Lotsa muggles around!!
Little Ben took music thingy and left a toy car.

Easy drive up....really muddy area and there was some interesting smells coming from a parked car over in the bushes so avoided those muggles even tho at first thats where the GPS wanted to take us...Found the cache with a little bit of where would be place a cache thinking....Took marbles...Left Shark Attack TB .....SL TFTH

There were a few Muggles around. COntemplated how to climb it for a bit and then discovered climbing wasn't all that necessary!!!

TFTF

Drove right up to the cache location and found it without any problems. TNLNSL.

It was very warm and still today and the swimming hole looked inviting but, no, there are more caches to do!

We basically drove right up to the cache and quickly found the cache. The waterhole looked very inviting. TNLNSL Thanks for the cache

it is good

We had a look a few days earlier but a group was camped under ground zero. came back a few days later after going on the railway - this too was good, and found it without too many headaches. due to holiday mode we forgot to log the find. anyway thanks for the cache.

The Crew.

This is our very first one ! We could not find it for about 20min but we found someone taking the cache from the hiding spot !!?? It was a great meeting and enjoyed good start !
Took finger monster and put a Kangaroo.

Found this one today, easy find took telstra arm band left small sponge ball TFTC

This is our first ever cache! Found it fairly easily, after some wandering and working out how the Navman works. It's in quite a different site to where GoogleEarth showed it, but a great hiding spot.

Took a martian in a spaceship, left a Telstra armband.

Yarrum jnr finally found the cache with his friends Team Redbacks. It was much easier and far more enjoyable to do, now that the coordinates have been corrected. Everyone thought it was a great spot,the boys had a swim to finish off after their discovery. Thanks for the cache and the opportunity to visit the park.
Left 5 soldiers, took small snake and lizard. SL

A digit makes a bit of a difference, too...

Got it with the new waypoint. Great hiding spot.

Damn Damn....We feel thoroughy beaten by an 8 year old. Spent lots of time looking for this one to no avail. All we got for our efforts were bruises and scratches. BUT we were not the only disappointed people.

Yarrum jnr was keen to try and find this one, but we came back empty handed. It was a bit of an unpleasant hunt. Came back scratched and sweaty. It has a terrain rating of 1.5, so I am wondering if there is some kind of error in the coordinates. There appears to be no public tracks or trails to the GZ, (however you can avoid pushing through all the tall grass and overgrown bushes and fallen trees if you detour onto a private access road). We persevered for quite a while, tried an alternate datum, and even wandered down to the nearby park which appeared to fit the clues a bit better. But alas no luck. We bumped into "The Goons" while we were there,who appear to have similar results to us. We will wait untill someone else has found it before we try again.
