Unfortunately there does not seem to be any evidence that indicates that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement or an indication as to when this might take place

It would appear the owner of this cache listing is no longer interested in the cache and 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.

If you wish to contact me regarding this cache, please send an email via my profile - [**Bunjil**,](https://coord.info/PR9GZ0K) and quote the cache name and GC number.

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

----------

Hi there Cache Owner,

This cache has come to my notice as there is a 'Needs Maintenance' log that that indicates there is some sort of issue with the placement and it needs your attention please.

Check out the Guidelines here: [**cache owners responsibilities.**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance) If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to [**Disable the cache**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=235) - I have Disabled it for you this time.

**Can you please respond to this situation (or indicated your intention) within 14 days,** so others know exactly what is happening with this cache?

You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:

- Check on the cache, repair and/or replace the cache 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.

- If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (within 14 days). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. For ongoing issues (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to speed.

- 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 those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when I next look at the cache page, it is likely that I will unfortunately have to de-list (Archive) it on the basis that it has been abandoned.

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.

I stopped off to look for this cache today... without reading the previous logs first. Really should have as it is clear from Kezababe's log of 18 Nov 2019 that the cache has gone!

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

The navigation takes you to dug up group where a large tree used to be. So not sure if it disappeared with the tree.

Brought Loose Unit here, as I grabbed my nuts last week.

Tree, where the cache was, is now split in two. No nuts to grab.

Requires maintenance.

Didn’t find. The tree looks newly fallen so wasn’t sure if that was part of it

I spied the set of nuts, but after reading comments about the log being wet, I hope it’s ok that I didn’t grab them. TFTC

Found the nuts but couldn’t get the paper out due to it being absolutely soaked. Thank you for this find!

A reasonably quick find .. the log was really wet and needs attention..thanks StaceV for placing the cache

Quick and easy cache find. Though logbook is toast and wasn't able to sign.. thanks for the cache.

Nice set of nuts Tftc

Lock book needs service rodeee

Found but log book is absolutely saturated. Have replaced the paper but what we found was unusable

Amazing hide, log was super wet so had to use a spare bit of paper, might wanna waterproof it. TFTC!

H

Noice. While the hubby was playing with the nuts, I ran back to the car to grab some paper for us to sign and add to the cache. Logbook is saturated.

Thank you StaceV.

Good fun if your out and about.

Out this afternoon collecting some caches along Swansea Road in the gloomy conditions. I dint take log to find my nuts here and I jumped up and quickly grab them. There was no-one around today so I felt no shame in fiddling around and accessing my nuts. Thanks for a fun idea, TFTC!

Nice, easy find. Cool cache. All in good condition. Fave point from me. TFTC

Some free style caching by stealth bike today chasing random caches. I did and I signed it. Thanks to StaceV for the placement and fun.

I missed logging this one so I'm a bit late.
Good hide when we were eventually able to look for it without an audience.

TFTC TNLN

We parked nearby and while we initially started to look for this one a couple of cyclists were also parked nearby, poncing around in their lycra while unloading their bikes so we headed off down the track and resumed the search upon our return. It didn't take too long to locate the nuts which I was able to grab and then fondle to relieve them of the log. Clever cache so it's another one I'll be adding to my eclectic list of favourites.
Nice one!
TFTC

Found it! The cache is damaged, missing a middle from one of the nuts. Also, this is not a regular sized cache, more a micro/ nano

Found on 31 Mar 2019 at 2:02 pm.
The weather was absolutely terrible yesterday and not much better today. Constant showers but I headed out anyway for a few hours. The good thing about the cold and showers ... no muggles made for pretty uninterrupted searches pretty much everywhere. That made up for the bad weather.

I parked in the nearby car park to do the next 3 along this trail before the rain then got too steady and annoying so I then headed back home.
I walked over from the car and the phone said 80cm away...hmmm must be pretty close. Oh there's the nuts. A short time later I was then signing the log.
Thanks StaceV for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

Easy find

Well, there's no other way to say this... My daughter got up there and twisted the nuts....awkward! Planning on coming back tomorrow with the rest or the family to find some more caches. The bell birds here are beautiful.

Dnf

With a little help from my Caching buddy , BonnyBlack , I grabbed this one . The log was wet and useless , so he made up a new one which I duly signed . Thanks StaceV

Found with Dancingjaz but no log book inside

Is my 600th find very clever hide log was found open and very soggy needs maintenance

Thanks StaceV again. Followed doctors advice and checked them. Forgot pen. Doh!

Needs maintenance

Found, but log was too mushy to take out and sign

Well set up cache and yes logbook is set.

I have driven past the caches along this trail on so many occasions yet I hadn't previously stopped. It was time to rectify that. I wandered to this GZ and found the cache easily. Not the easiest retrieval but got there. Unfortunately the log was wet and I couldn't easily sign. TFTC

Very wet log and full

Said nuts are much easier to spot when the host is nude. Log book wet and full

Grabbed the nut

A quick find here on a foggy morning. Tftv

Clues were handy made it easier to find. 15 April 2018 1:04 pm

Very cool and a bit nutty

Love the hide. Haha great cache cheers!

Good one. Daddy helped with lifting up to reach it

Cookie geodog and i found it but just couldnt reach it. Im an oldish woman lol so i wasnt going there. Ill have to train my geodog to climb and fetch TFTC

Took a while to find this then read the attributes listed which gave me an indication of where to look. It was then easily found, but how to get it? We actually had a very useful TOTT in the car which was employed and The_Evil_Muggle volunteered to do the reach for the cache. That’s the way to do it! TFTC

Nutty Professor

Thanks for placing and maintaining this- so cool. Hot day out caching the valley

Almost went nuts looking for this one, nutted it out in the end

Thanks StaceV

forgot pen

Yay my first geocache

With emeraldflame

Just over 6 years after getting the FTF, and after a 5 year break from Geocaching, I'm back and showing DaD0n the ropes. Great cache to start him off with.

Found easily, saw container was open. DaD0n pulled a squished logbook out of the bottom of the container, signed, then replaced making sure the lid was secure.

Thanks once again for the cache

Found just before a storm set in. A lovely part of Lilydale. There was no log book in the nuts. TFTC

Thinking a wee detour Enroute to Harrietville would be a great start to the journey. The log is pretty well stuck and needs a tool to extract. Wetlands seem to be well cared for and loved by the locals. TFTC and the wetlands!

Well spotted by my son, inventive spot

TFTC!

TFTC!

I originally found this cache with my Mum heymissjo, but now that I have my own account, I am logging. Thanks for the cache.

For the past few years I have cached as part of "team heymissjo", but now I am old enough to have my own account so logging the find. Thanks for the cache.

Sneaky hide!! Nice

The log is a bit moist.
TFTC

With Cup day off it didn't take much thought as to what I should do. Loaded the bike into the car and headed into the hills.

#5. I spent a while investigating an out of place item at GZ before heading further into the oasis and sighting the cache. Very small to be considered a Regular but I won't complain. Log is full and needs to be replaced asap.

Thanks for the cache

#2022

Since moving from New Zealand 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
No two areas are the same here and almost every place I go 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.
The caches I’ve found in Australia so far have for the most part all been in great condition. Keep up the good work.

nice cache my boy found this thanks

Finally found some nuts

Found

Terrific hide, love these ones that are very inventive, favourite from me. Added new log as the other one was full. TFTC and the series.

Sent geodad aka geobill13 up to get the cache, said he nearly lost his own nuts on the way up haha. Lovely night for a walk TFTC

Took a little while but my partner in crime and I found those glorious NUTS!!! Thanks for the MMRS

Found

Out and about for the day with Echidna44. Thought we would clear out some in the east. We parked in a picnic area and decided that this was a part of our walk for the day. I could not remember doing this one back in 2011. it seems that Mr X it. Worked out it was the terrain that we needed to be aware of and that solved it all. Logs books are very wet and FULL. Great cache. Thanks for the cache

Out with xambo4u, this was the last before we stopped for lunch at the nearby table. It took a little while to locate the elusive nuts, but all was well in the end. Wet log, both full. Great cache, thanks Gunks

We parked in the adjacent car park and made a quick find.
The log is a little wet.
TFTC!

Love it , awesome little hide.. and the amount of times we have walked, ridden or run past this...

#3 of a lovely 30 km bushwalk from Lilydale over Silva dám to Olinda . TFTC

Well that was fun! Sent my 60 y/o mother up to get the nuts (seeing I had a sleeping baby on my back!). Love it! Favourite point from us. TFTC

Just a quick note that the log was very soggy and almost impossible to sign.

Well hidden

The nuts are well hidden

Tftc

Clever hide TFTC

Found it! Log books are both wet.

Found! Very cool! Couldn't write in the log though no room

After struggling with the GG series. It was good to see that my geocaching skills were not completely off today. Tftc

Logs need serious replacing. Managed to squeeze us in. TFTC

Lol good one

With this one not too far from the track, we feigned interest in an abandoned lawnmower as muggles passed by. With them out of the way, cache was in hand quickly. Log was full but managed to stamp it and replace it.

Ouch my nuts !
Thanks for the hide
It's turnaround time, I wish I could cache all day, but a wedding awaits the muggles plans for the day. I know there is some caches nearby I'll be looking for a chance to grab them

Ooh that took us a while! Great hide in a spot that is built for trickery! Cheers!

Find no. 1662

Initally I was over thinking the hint here, convinced I knew what it would be... turns out i was wrong, but a super cool cache was found.

As others have said both log books are full, but we managed to squeeze SB on it.

Thanks for the clever hide.

Love those nuts

Found! Awesome design. Log books need replacing URGENTLY.

Great find

Following a short walk along Olinda Creek, the nice construction was soon spotted and reached.
We read the sign re. revegation of the area. The poplar trees, being environmental weeds, are doomed ...
Both log books are in a poor state, full and need replacing.

Was a bit shaky when I got here, as I was almost rear ended turning into the car park even though I had my left indicator on for a reasonable amount of time.
Anyway I forgot all about that once I found this cache, nothing like grabbing some nuts to calm your nerves Cool construction, thank you

Lovely day for a walk along the track. Found it TNLN
Tks

Clever hide. TFTC.

The Surprise find

Feeling a bit sorry for my self so off to find a cache. Happy now, we have just had a hard rubbish collection and this mower was at GZ thought it night be the cache for a moment haha. TFTC

Great cache. Well thought out and good construction. We did this as a drive by on our way home from picking up another cache in lilydale. TFTC

Nice cache lots of fun.
