I am archiving this cache due to the unfortunate lack of action taken to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, The GeoTrekkers, requesting additional time.Despite ample opportunities provided for the Cache Owner to respond, their silence leads me to the conclusion that the cache has been abandoned.In such cases, archived caches will not be unarchived, and as a result, this location is now open for the placement of a new cache by another interested party.Thanks,BalayangCommunity Reviewer - Australia

##Cache Maintenance Required please.##This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit, to address the issue described in the logs. The cache owner needs to either fix the problem or archive the listing, after picking up any geo-litter. In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page.See the maintenance section of the [Geocache Hiding Guidelines](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance). If there is a good reason for a delay in enabling this cache, please post an update note log here on the cache page so that everyone will know what's going on. When the maintenance is completed, you can re-enable the listing by entering an "Enable Listing" log, and then post an "Owner Maintenance" log to clear the "Needs Maintenance" attribute, if set.I will check back in 30 days to be sure that the maintenance has been done, or that further information has been provided. If there has been no action to repair the cache, or explain the situation, unfortunately I will need to Archive this cache. Caches archived because of lack of maintenance will not be unarchived.The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.Thank youBalayangCommunity Reviewer -Australia

Need a replacement container and log at a minimum here. Spent a long time crawling through and found a pile of remnants or toys and container. And 12 tennis balls. And some gaffa tape which I really hope was once part of a container

So happy to find this! We found two separate containers, a circular container covered in a plastic bag to keep it dry and a plastic Tupperware container. Inside we found a car trackable and signed the log

Thank you to the previous finder (Vadrox?) who appears to have replaced the cache. The remains of the previous one are present and are still drying out; I suspect that most items won't be salvageable. This was, fortunately, a quick and muggle-free find. Thanks GeoTrekkers.

WinkGrabbing some caches to hopefully clear some missing datesSmileBig Grin[:o_________________________________________________________________Cool Thanks The GeoTrekkers for bringing me to this location and taking the time to hide and maintain this cache. I found the cache at 10:57:15. This was my Find 1 for today out of a Total number of 5 Finds and 0 DNF for for this Caching Outing. The cache was found in Good Condition and I signed the log and returned the cache as I found it.This find brings my total number of Finds to 5679.Big Grin

This geocacher reported that the container is damaged.
 
04-Aug-22
The lid is not existent anymore and the container was filled with water. The log and all other paper based objects are rotten and unusable. All steel parts of the swag are rusted. In short, all content of the container is a one big sleazy mess. I left piece of paper as a temporary replacement log and my trackable in a Ziploc bag. I will try to replace the container, but to salvage the remains of the log someone has to take it home and dry it up. I am leaving Australia in a day and simply have no means to do that.

In addition to the homeless person possessions, there is another interesting and puzzling item in the same bush. I wonder what kind of animal lives there.

It took me a lot of time to find this one. Thank you for the challenge.

Very quick find during a day at the beach.
 
07-Jul-22
Heading north and looking for some high terrain caches we spotted this one. On approached we wondered how far in and in which direction so we dived in and soon spotted the hide. The lid is unfortunately quite broken so needs maintenance. We completed the signing duties and re hid. TFTC
 
19-Jun-22
Out and about today and I decided to check the map to see what was nearby. We stopped at the nearby cafe for a coffee and I went for a wander and find.

Many thanks to The GeoTrekkers for placing and maintaining Rhino. I found it, I signed it, and put it back as found.

Not the nicest retrieval of my caching career. Glad I was wearing a rain jacket so I wasn’t too scratched up. Lid is broken but surprisingly contents were fairy dry. TFTC!
 
30-Jul-21
Did not find as cache placement is a 'home' for a homeless person.
 
03-Jul-21
Easy my butt hole maybe for a spider

Nouthing like a good crawl in the bush,TFTC
 
09-May-21
Found and replaced as found to reduce water ingress
 
27-Mar-21
This was a quick find, TFTC. Unfortunately the lid has cracked so I have positioned it in a way such that it hopefully will not fill with water. I have also taken the trackable. Found with Tank_Squad.

The lid has a crack in it, I have positioned it in such a way that it hopefully won't fill with water.

TFTC! Our last day in OZ. I actually wanted to leave the little fella here, but there have been too many TBs "gone missing". Therefore we just signed the log.
 
11-Mar-20
After a short night in Perth the tour started that took me all the way up to Broome. During the long hours of driving I, unfortunately, had no wifi so therefore no chance to log all the caches I found en route. I do that now and must admit that I don't remember all the details. However, whenever I had the chance during our stops I found some and had a good time searching for them. Thanks to all the owners who made this possible.

After checking out the "Sculptures by the sea" exhibition, Youmi and I did a little detour to this Cache coordinates, before leaving for Freo.

The Cache itself was a quick find, but a bit of a scratchy undertaking ...

Thanks, for hiding this Cache!

After visiting the „sculptures by the sea“ Lundi263 and I quickly went into the park and found the cache. Thank you

Happy New Year !!!! First find of 2020. Nice crawl!
 
29-Dec-19
Not wearing the correct attire for climbing into bushes but luckily previous caches have made a semi entrance and it wasn’t too tight.
Quick find once there.
Thanks for this hide, one of the only in this suburb without a high muggle presence.

The Flintstones family on a few days stopover for Pebbles' Athletics Campionship on our way to Europe. Lots of nice places to discover her in Peth as I have never been. Thanks to all the COs for making this such a memorable time (especially so from the current perspective).

Today a visit in Fremantle with Dino and Wilma. After that we drove up the coast a bit and these caches here looked like they were in an interesting location so we stopped and went for a walk.
Quick find, nice cache, all in good order.

Thank you The GeoTrekkers for putting the cache out and maintaining it.

Found together with Fred.
