### **MAINTENANCE REQUIRED?** ###
I notice from recent log entries that this cache would seem to be in need of owner intervention as there are one or more comments in regard to the state of the cache log. It leads one to the contention that the cache container is no longer weather proof. Therefore I am temporarily disabling it so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.
A basic tenet of geocaching is that **the cache log needs to be signed to record a find,** see here: [Logging of All Physical Geocaches](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#logging). At the moment this would seem to be extremely difficult if not impossible to meet that requirement in regard to this cache.
Prompt attention by cache owners to any log that indicates anything could be amiss is greatly appreciated by all seekers. The guideline advises; ***"if you can't check/fix it straight away then Disable it till you can."*** see here: [Owner is responsible for visits to the physical location,](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance ) and here's how; [Temporarily Disable and Enable,](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235) also check out this Blog: [Helpful Tips To Keep In Mind As A Geocache Owner.](http://www.geocaching.com/blog/2015/03/you-hid-your-first-geocache-now-what/)
Please respond to this situation by **3rd September** to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness. If you require more time, please be sure to post a "Write Note" log (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.
**And don't forget,** once you have addressed the issue, post both an "Owner Maintenance" log, see here; [Removing the Needs Maintenance Icon](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and an "Enable Listing" log, see here; [Temporarily Disable and Enable](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) to get your cache up and running again.

Took the dog down to explore the Two Towns Trail since we hadn't yet gotten to it after moving to Drouin. He loved it, I was scared I'd fall in the water behind the fences or get stuck somewhere int he bushes. Gave up pretty quickly as lots of muggles coming and going. Maybe I'll be back another day. TFTH!
Should of looked at the previous logs before attempting. Couldnt see it. Is it still there? If I had found I would have gone for the jog to the car to fetch a temp log in bag like I had the one nearby for other cachers interest. Tftc anyway and I hope some maintenance is done soon.
After a bit of a search this was found out in the open unfortunately it is completely water logged and not signable which is a shame for such a lovely walk geodude#74 will be uploading photos
Found it. Creative cache but unfortunately log not able to be signed due to water. TFTC
I found this cache today at 4:15pm as number 44 of 53 on my Australia Day Northern South Gippsland Loop. I was going to park at the north but the TomTom said that there was a road right next to the previous cache at the south even though it was a longer drive. This turned out to be rubbish as the road did not exist and a 200m walk was in order to that cache and another 500m onward to this one, As previously reported, the cache log needs replacing but I still left my mark. Thanks from D B-A.
Another great find on a geocaching trip around the area after the MEGA.

Very clever hide!! 2nd time back and found it! It's very wet again unable to sign log! TFTC!
Sometimes you just get lucky. This could have turned out to take quite some time, but I was able to identify the sneaky hide. The log is starting to perish, but is still able to be signed. I took a photo of the container as well just to be safe.
I like the nearby permanent bike pump - it is a great idea and the first that I have seen.
Thanks Jared75182 for the cache.

A Friday the thirteenth roadtrip with 2/4ths of TeamThommo and my geoteen on a mission to complete 6 different caches in a day... The trip had us start our day in Suburbs of Melbourne then all the way out to LoyYang In Gippsland...
I had previosly DNF this one... with some TeamThommo help we were able to make a super quick find today... This area is building up super fast.. Im sure in the next 12 months, this will be quite a high muggle area...
Thanks Jared for this cache

Quiet happy to report this one has now been found! It was I a camo I had previously considered but just hadn't located! TFTC SL TNLN TBV
Went for caching run around Drouin found 5 and DNF 2
This was the 6th of 7 caches I went looking for.
The day that is getting hotter. I spent about 45mins looking everywhere and was getting frustrated so I PAF and got a small hint. I was looking in the area all together. It took me another 10mins of searching and I finally found it. The log was wet, it tore whilst I was unrolling it. I dried it out then I signed it and replace it back in it hiding spot.

Well Jared75182 thats another DNF for one of your caches. Stumped still has me stumped and now this one! I was in the area and needed this one for my DT Matrix. I felt I had enough experience to tackle this one I have found some very sneaky hides even FTF on a couple of quiet hard ones and I have found several of your sneaky hides so knew what I was in for. I could get my phone to settle any closer than 4 meters. I did take into account the mowed grass hint and I do know some of your pasty hides would fit into this area. But NO!! I couldn't find it and disappointingly it looks like someone else has been in the area recently as one of the logs had been taken off and lots of the nuts are unscrewed. I wish cachers would be more courteous when they are looking for a sneaky hide. I see there have been no DNF's for quiet awhile so that suggest to me people are looking but not logging. I replaced the log but my fingers were sore and couldn't get all the nuts screwed on. TFTH I am not sure if ill be back for this one! Well done!
Out and about this afternoon on a caching trek, the only plan was to be where the rain wasn’t,
this worked for us today, really enjoyed the cache hides along the way any thanks to Jared75182
for the effort and placement TNLN SL

Found while out and about with my caching buddy Slink1. We had a great day dodging the rain and we managed to collected a few caches along the way. TNLN SL
Our regular Wednesday geo-caching run has us heading for a day out at Drouin. This is our third find of the afternoon session and we are now into double figures for the day. Cache all good.
Fortunately found the cache without needing a lifeline. Checked all the likely spots and spotted the tricky hide. Thanks Jared75182
Searched for this one with TheGGGs for a reasonable time it was found after a hint FPAF. I was a bit short one end to be on the mowed grass and finish the job. ( have seen one like this ) Well done jared75182 and thanks FTC.
kmps picked me up to go and find this one and we spent some time looking and I even said to him I wonder if it is like "------- -----" but even this didn't help. in the end I used the PAF option and quickly made the find. Well Done Jared75182.
As this was the last of the new three I decided to have a captain cook at this one as well and after a enjoyable and easy walk i arrived at the cache location. I spent a fair amount, OK a long time looking and was going to give up but decided to make a call. I was looking in the right area but at the wrong spot and with a hint the cache was found with the words "how did i miss that"
The cache was logged and it was home time after.
Our thanks to Jared75182 for the cache

Joint FTF After grabbing the other two ftfs we continued on to this one and searched for awhile with no luck so Corey made a call to the cache owner who confirmed we where in the right location but searching the wrong thing so we searched for about half an hour and was just bout to give up when I found the cache nicely hidden. Thanks jared75182 for the cache.

We all looked for ages to find this one. Finally just as we were about to leave, Bounty Trackers came up with the goods!! TFTC
Had just found a joint FTF with Bounty Trackers and coreyta so we were keen to make a quick pick up at this cache. We were certainly in the right area but had spent a good 20mins looking without a result so resorted to making a call to the CO who confirmed we were looking in the right direction. Finally just as we were about to give up Bounty Trackers said there was just one more place he had not properly scoured. Well, wouldn't you know it, the wonderfully camouflaged cache was right there so thankfully we could log as a find and not a DNF. Thanks Jared75182 for yet another challenging cache!!
