Unfortunately there does not seem to be any evidence to indicate that steps have been, or will be taken, to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement.

It would appear the cache has been abandoned.

As such the cache is being de-listed (Archived). If there are components or remnants of the cache, please recover them as we don't want to litter our environment with Georubbish.

### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED PLEASE** ###

Hi there Echo & Spice,

This cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as a cache that **MAY** need some attention.

You may recall having received an automated email from Geocaching HQ which explained what you needed to do.

Unfortunately, nothing seems to have happened, so I am having to take the next step and temporarily disable the cache - see here: [**Geocache Health Score.**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713)

**You do need to respond in some way within 14 days so others know exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication kill this cache.**

#What should you do now:-#
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-

- **Check On The Cache:-** Visit the cache and repair and/or replace or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the praises.

- **Place A Write Note Log:-** Reviewers are not mind readers, so without your note on the cache page telling them what the situation is, they can't tell what is going on with the cache.
So please just post a note to the page (within 14 days) and, when the listing is next checked, all will be fine for a little bit longer. But be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it.
If you have a long term unavailable cache (where you don't have an actual date), please ensure you visit this page and post a note every 4 to 6 weeks so as to keep everyone up to speed with what is happening.

- **Adopt/Archive:-** If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another Geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**Archive it,**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56) so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of the above. Well, when the cache is next checked by a Reviewer, if the issue has not been addressed, or there is no acknowledgment as requested above, it will be assumed the cache has been abandoned and processed accordingly.

Honestly, I'd rather you decide, so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

**JUST A TIP:-** Have you checked out the new Geocaching Dash Board designed to assist a Cache Owner in managing the caches they own? Have a read about it [**HERE.**](https://www.geocaching.com/blog/2020/07/welcome-to-the-cache-owner-dashboard/?newsletter=PM) You will find your very own dash board [**HERE**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/owner?utm_source=geocaching&utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=COD)

Thanks for your cooperation,

Definitely nothing here we had a look around and nothing. Will be back if someone else finds it

DNF. Definitely missing. Maybe muggles took it and throw away??

Found the first wooden pole after metal ones but did not find cache

We looked for ages could not find anything

Found. Good spot. Left dinosaur, took shell and place a trackable in

Amazing location for a walk

It was found easily this time as last time I came it was def not where it was this time found much better and hint very helpful

Celmac710 and mini me found it no trouble this time so glad it was there to find. Yay. Hint very helpful

I looked where it stated it should be and took in the hint but was unable to locate the container

Found, with a little bit of trouble. Don't appreciate the comment from person who dropped it saying we shouldn't be doing it in lockdown. 1km from our house, pretty sure we're allowed out to exercise still. Dampened our excitement for our first experience

Gave up

Found easily, a bit wet inside. Left a trinket. TFTC

Followed the hint and found it straight away. The log was all wet so I popped a new one in, in a bag to stay dry. TFTC

Lovely sunny day. Fun find. Hint needed.

TFTC good spot took, a bit too find( 10 minutes)

Found it! - Kyla

Tftc walked past it at first (needs more paper)

Good fun

Another easy yet fun find as the two youthful ones full of energy had a race to the cache. Yet another example of the snail wins the race as the fastest went straight past GZ.
Thanks for the fun

Thanks for letting us enjoy your treasure

Nice hidden gems

Found it

Little tricky but we found it in the end, we added a little something

Needs a new log but nice easy find while walking the dog

This was our first one. Used the hint as we are new at this but it is fun to find!

Found it

All good. I put in a log book and a couple of trinkets...

Unfortunately an open (albeit in good condition) and empty cache container greeted me at GZ
No obvious sign of contents laying about
Retrieved a scrap piece of paper and signed and dated which will suffice for a log
Replaced the container as per hint
Many thanx to Echo & Spice

*3 Dec 2018, Found @8:33 pm, Find # 2264.*

In the area picking up a few caches for the calendar and come to find this one. A quick find, but had to wait a little while for the passing traffic to die down.

**Thanks to Echo & Spice for placing this cache.**

A quick find here thanks to good coords and descriptive hint.
Cache in good condition.
This puts me 100 caches away from my goal of 1000 finds for this year.

Thanks Echo & Spice.

Grabbed the GC Travel Ingot to carry on my journey.

***NO CLUES OR HINTS IN THE FOLLOWING TEXT***

Since moving from New Zealand in 2016 I have been enjoying the area, exploring and finding caches.
So far I’ve knocked off 4 of the states. VIC, SA, NSW and A.C.T all multiple times.
No two areas are the same here and almost every place I go to is stunning. The beauty of caching is that it takes you to so many places you would never usually find.
Thank you to all the cachers out there for hiding and maintaining their caches. Especially to those who put so much effort into creating unique and fun hides.
I enjoy finding well maintained caches in fun and unique cache containers. No one likes finding a mint tin – but a find is a find after all.
I’m currently working on a Project-GC challenge to get the average word count on my logs over 200 words.
So please ignore the rest of this log as it is just nonsense and song lyrics.
Well she was an American girl
Raised on promises
She couldn't help thinkin' that there
Was a little more to life
Somewhere else
After all it was a great big world
With lots of places to run to
Yeah, and if she had to die
Tryin' she, had one little promise
She was gonna keep
Oh yeah, all right
Take it easy baby
Make it last all night
She was an American girl
Well, It was kind of cold that night
She stood alone on her balcony
She could hear the cars roll by
Out on 441
Like waves crashin' on the beach
And for one desperate moment there
He crept back in her memory
God it's so painful, when
Something that's so close
And still so far out of reach
Oh yeah, all right
Take it easy baby
Make it last all night
She was an American girl
Well I'm a-runnin' down the road try'n to loosen my load
I've got seven women on my mind
Four that want to own me, two that want to stone me
One says she's a friend of mine
Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy
Lighten up while you still can
Don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand, and take it easy
Well, I'm a standin' on a corner in Winslow, Arizona
Such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my Lord, in a flat-bed Ford
Slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me
We may lose and we may win, though we will never be here again
So open up I'm climbin' in, so take it easy
Well, I'm a runnin' down the road tryin' to loosen my load
Got a world of trouble on my mind
Lookin' for a lover who won't blow my cover, she's so hard to find
Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels make you crazy
Come on baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me
Oh, we got it easy
We oughta take it easy
