I am regretfully archiving this cache since there's been no response from nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in the last reviewer note.

Hi Guwapo

This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit and after my previous reviewer note, there has been no owner response. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.

Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.

Please note, that if a cache is archived due to lack of owner maintenance, the cache is unable to be unarchived.

Regards

This cache wasn't here after searching all over the show, appears based off of the history that it's not here anymore
 
30-Sep-20
Check pretty well but nothing
 
13-Sep-20
We inadvertently found a log book about 300m from the cache site lying in the bark chips of the skate ramp.
Checking the logbook with online entries of caches we believe the log book belongs to this cache, so definitely not in place.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Have a feeling it's not where supposed to be? we used the hint and comment (hint) 'clever, magnet' and we have been really thorough..
 
25-Sep-19
Nah, I think I like the odds better when attempting this in daylight. However, I did find something which I'm pretty sure is being looked for by people involved in another activity.

There's nothing like a fun little wager to make finding a geocache more fun. The GPSr pointed me to two hint objects, so we each picked one and I'm glad to say I was victorious - Hevic now owes me dinner! Yet another cute little park I didn't know about, cheers!
