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

----------

Hi there Trigger_Fish,

It looks like this cache might need some attention, as one or more seekers have indicated there is an issue. The cache has been temporarily disabled, so as to remove it from search listings and discourage people from visiting this location until the issues/s with this cache can be addressed.

**You do need to respond in some way within 14 days, so others know you are on top of it, as well as indicating exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication scuttle this listing.**

#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 logs of praise to roll in.

- **Place A Write Note Log::-** Reviewers are not mind readers (unfortunately), so without your note on the cache page explaining that the site works are on-going, you have been in hospital, the area is in flood, or some other reason that has prevented attending to the cache, they can't tell what is going on.
So please just post a note to the page (within 14 days) and when a Reviewer next looks at the listing, all will be fine for a little bit longer.
**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 the page and post a note every 4 to 6 weeks, so as to keep everyone up to speed.**

- **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 those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when a Reviewer next looks at the cache page, it is likely that they will, unfortunately, have to de-list (Archive) 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.

**JUST A TIP:-** Have you checked out the 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,

Having a swim when we visited!

Well uhhh... Photo says it all.
I recommend this cache be disabled for now or marked as a kayak cache.
Will come back when floods subside.

This geocacher reported that the container is damaged.

Out for a days caching before Xmas. I travelled far and wide.

All ccaches found were in good order unless otherwise noted.

Another cache hunt on our 2022 South Australian Adventure.

We are off to Explore Mypolonga today thanks Moneydotk for showing us around.

We are enjoying our time in SA, but it is time to slowly head back West again. Thanks to all the COs for taking us on this geo-guided tour.

Found quickly whilst doing the Mypolonga Adventure Lab with hevwalker and Clare007, I jumped out and found the cache in the first place I looked, had it signed and replaced quickly, only to realise that we had to come back when we looked at the Lab locations. We felt we were driving in circles for a while as Clare007 had trouble with reception and completing the Lab Cache....but got there in the end. TFTC

As we drove past I thought there has to be a cache in there......and there was. TFTC Moneydork

A great day with JJ52. We started at Mypolonga and found a few caches there. We ran into Hevwalker and her crew while we were there. Then we made our way to CP's Climb My Tower event. We ended up finding all the caches in the Kinchina Park. We found more than we thought we would and are feeling the effects after. TFTC Triggerfish

In Mannum for the weekend for a little R&R.Today we headed out to clear as many as we could and sightsee the area. A quick find here. TFTC

This is the first time that I have ever been to Mypolonga, so I reckon I qualify for that Locationless now. Caches on machinery fill me with dread, but this one isn’t hard. Thanks for the hide Triggerfish.

Easy find for grandie

Love the hiding spot

A nice quick one in the rain before work love it

TFTC. Enjoying cache finding in the lovely rain

I was a little bit pumped too as I grabbed the cache. TFTC

In all our travels we would not have even thought to travel to this location.
(HaHa). In your dreams, these cachers do.

[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

Devilish

Brilliant and Clever

I like it

Another one off the list

Nice relaxing find excellent location TYFTC

Top of the hole. Nice free camp for cyclists. Very very windy cycling today.

Very quick find even though didn’t have phone service. Tftc

Today, jesswrigley and I headed to Mannum, Mypolonga and Monarto. Our first stop was Mannum Waterfalls, and we had a good walk around in the nice weather, before heading to Mannum for lunch and completing the new Adventure Lab there. Then, we made a quick stop in Mypolonga checking out a few of the geocaches, and it was then onward to "Woop Woop" Creek at Monarto for the event and new *Underrated Aussie Series*. A few hours of nice walking around and admiring the creek/valley right before the rain hit in the evening.

We pulled up to admire this old pump relic. Thankfully, it didn’t take long to find, perhaps partly due to the small section with cleared web compared to the existing webs. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks Moneydork/Trigger_Fish for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

Great find

Geosister overlooked it but found easily

Nice find! Collected on a nice day out. Tftc

Easy find.
Quiet area today.
TFTC!

A quick find on my 4th day geocaching around Murray Bridge. TFTC.

Great hint

Nomads travelling in their caravan around Australia. We have been on the road since July 2011 and discovered caching in August 2013. We travel with a bunch of travel bugs belonging to our sons and grand children. Where ever possible, we will maintain your cache as we travel.

After our house sit in Willunga, we are on the road again, filling in time before we go to Kangaroo Island on 1 Nov. Based at Murray Bridge Showgrounds - the home of Oz Mega 2014.

Heading out towards Mypologa found us exploring the area, and looking for somewhere with a view for a lunch break. Thanks for the hide Moneydork, our black glove was very useful here.

out with mogni on route to Murray Bridge to do maintenance on some of her adopted caches. quick find. found while doing the wherigo.

Thanks moneydork for this hide. Nice history on the pump and engine

Whist looking for another cache, we came across a number of caches in the Mypolonga area and took the opportunity to look for them. This was one of them.

Accurate coordinates, the hint and a limited number of hiding spots led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Moneydork for the cache.

Hi there Moneydork.

We found your cache **"Irene is Pumped"** today and this brings our total find count to 21947

We spent the day caching around Mypolonga, then the Kinchina Conservation area (trying to avoid an orienteering group). We ended up finding a variety of container types and sizes on our journey & found 18 caches (& DNF'd 0). Thank you for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic wandering around Australia.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

I had a great day with Whitepaws9 from Victoria because we chatted and laughed along the drive.

Thanks Moneydork for the cache

Great spot for a cache

Thanks Moneydork

We started our day doing the "walking" series of Cp Wanderer and finished in a run day of caching, we couldn't find it but a phone call was made and a replacement was on place, and this started to be a competition of who will find the next hide first . TFTFun

Mr Tardis was out on a caching run with Locus Cache, AndyColombia, K.B, Team Scoobster and Team Unicycle. We had fun finding some caches around Mypolonga.

Six of us couldn't find the cache. Locus gives the CO a quick phone call, and it turns out it's been muggled. A new cache replaced with permission from the owner.

A mighty nice pump Irene.

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Moneydork.

SEMIK and AndyColombia organised a group to walk "Walkies" and since I had already walked them all, I oferred to drive walkers back to their cars. I may have also invited just a few more people out for a fun walk in the bush too
After the walk, two car loads of us including Uni & Medusa (minus Medusa), Team Scoobster (Mr Scoobs), the Tardis Trio (Mr Tardis), K.B., AndyColombia and I decided to get some nearby caches.
By days end I had 1 DNF but also had 47 finds.

Despite much talk of pumping, no geocache was found and Millsmob greeted us by saying that they had also not been able to find it after an extended search
A phone call was made to the CO and the cache was replaced in its original position.
Hopefully Irene stays put and enjoys being pumped

TNLN. SL. TFTC Moneydork

I was in Murray Bridge for the MEGA a few years ago and logged plenty of finds at that time. It was great to return today with a group of South Australians to log some more finds. Thanks for the cache which someone got permission to replace while we were in the area.

Didn't find it ,then found it after the awesome six turned up and fashioned a replacement cache out of an awesome bits box.
Nice to meet fellow cachers while out and about.
Thanks Moneydork for the cache hide
