### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED?** ###
This cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as one that may need attention. Perhaps it is time for the CO to check on this one please.

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.

Your prompt attention to logs that indicates things could be amiss will be greatly appreciated by all geocachers. It is generally accepted that 3 consecutive DNF's is reason enough to check, see here: [Owner is responsible for visits to the physical location,](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance )

Please respond to this situation by **6th June** 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.

We did not find it needs a check

Could not find it, may be missing going by previous log entries
 
This cache needs a check
 
22-Jun-16
Nothing but knickers and suspicious small bags found.
 
01-Jun-16
Found the container defaced... From the log this isnt the first time.... Maybe time to find this cache a new home
 
01-Jun-16
Found the container, open and empty right next to the water. No log. We read through the logs that this has been defaced several, might be time for a different location.
 
29-May-16
I went to both sides and a couple of times back and forth. Found underpants and an old fence post and suspicious foil packets under the west side and nothing much under the east side Sad another time
 
22-May-16
Great clambering by Oman found the gold
 
26-Apr-16
Not sure if we're looking in correct place or side of road. Navigator going crazy. Will be back
 
25-Apr-16
TFTC. GPS went a little haywire when getting close. Fun find. Pretty view. No pen. No treasures.
 
26-Mar-16
Down town and found
 
24-Mar-16
Took a little while but thanks to a previous hint we got it!
 
23-Mar-16
The GPS told me where to look so under I went.
I imagine that this is not always a desirable place to be judging by the evidence...
However your little cache was roughly hidden where I imagined it to be, just took me 2 passes to spot it
Thanks
 
23-Mar-16
Found after a second attempt. This one took us a while! Good spot tftc
 
13-Feb-16
Thought I spotted this one straight away - nope: it was a homemade bong. Yikes!
Looked here there everywhere. Seems I had the right idea all along just had to narrow it down. TFTC.
 
07-Feb-16
Was looking on wrong side of road, then read a couple of previous logs then went too correct place to make a find, with a nice sized container too, was surprised to find a Travel Duck #3 inside cache it was NOT listed as being here, have taken for movement elsewhere so it can continue travels
 
18-Jan-16
Tftc. Found with ^dventurer right near my best friend's pad.
 
18-Jan-16
Woo hoo found it! 007Stealth and myself came up trumps with this one...and fancy this our friend lives close by!! TFTC

Out and about for a picnic in Brimbank Park and picked up this cache on our way home.

As always, we took the hard way in and the easy way out. The creek here is a beautiful little oasis. We saw a gorgeous green parrot and a big fat eel.
 
27-Oct-15
Found with Mrs Blue Duck. We parked in sight of the bridge, around the corner and crossed the road, not realizing we werewrong side. Mrs Blue Duck was dubious about our approach but if we hadn't gone that way we would not have seen the eel and pretty green parrot in the creek. She went around while I clambered diwn on the wring side. No luck. Mrs Blue Duck went the sensible way and spotted it straight away. Good condition but pretty exposed. Rehid the cache. TFTC.

Had never quite got to this one when caching nearby but had some extra time today and given it was a public holiday thought GZ would likely be quite so thought to give it a go. Parked in a nearby street and had a quick walk to GZ. Relatively easy find but surprised its lasted so long given the obvious activity that happens almost on top of it. Cache container whilst intact could use some TLC as it doesn't close properly anymore. Thanks shaymo69.
 
24-Sep-15
I attempted this one a few months ago but disturbed a young couple kissing as soon as I stuck my head under the bridge at GZ so I quickly retreated leaving them to their privacy. Today I had the area all to myself and made the quick find. The lid won't seal properly anymore but otherwise all is well. I like the couch opposite GZ, not sure how someone managed to get it there but I hope they've had a chance to use it. Thanks for the cache shaymo69.
 
21-Aug-15
A lot of ground work going on nearby but they were not interested in me.
As soon as I had signed the log i looked up and there was a rather comfy couch perched directly opposite me. Should have been on this side so I could have used it while I signed the log. The container is a little broken and could do with some TLC.

We found your cache Rosehill on 25/07/2015 4:01 pm. This is our find #4519 and find #11 today.
found with wozzle68
The cache is in good shape.
Thanks shaymo69 for the cache!

Feeling like a troll no 51

A bit of a hard one to get to for me lucky I was with Highrod. TFTC
 
05-Jul-15
After literally driving over this cache hundreds of times since it was placed, today I decided to cross it off my list, which is long overdue since it is the closest unfound to home. A bit of a look around easy places before I descended for a relatively quick find. Great to see this location from a different perspective. Cheers.
 
05-Jul-15
What a lovely winters day to grab a few caches in the area.
Easy find, a little tricky to get to, but still getable.

07-Jun-15
We were in the area and noticed we hadn't got this one. The kids found Rosehill an interesting road with all the streets with gem names like Diamond. A fair bit of earth works in the area, but after a bit of a read of a couple of the logs a quick'ish find. One of the clips was broken on the cache but the log is in good condition.

Found by Team Justice #408 - BJ & MJ

Quick find before work TFTC
 
03-May-15
Nice find

Found this one on the way home after picking up an e-bay purchase. Where I once restricted such purchases based on distance, I can now justify driving just about anywhere as a caching day Big Grin Usually the kids are more than happy to cache till it's dark, or even later. Today they were only interested in getting home to set up the new trampoline. We stopped for a couple anyway - this was the last one before home though. Found after a bit of scrambling around. We think the container may need some attention. It is closed ok for now, but one of the clips did not seem very secure. Thanks shaymo69 for the hunt!
 
02-May-15
Thanks for the cache. Easy find with geokid.
 
26-Apr-15
After a scramble around underneath the bridge I managed to find this cache. Coords had me a little unsure so I tried the other side. A snaplock container may be better here Smile tftc today! Avoid the side with the bong display!

Tricky hide but got there after a few minutes.
Many thanks for the challenge.

An easy cache to find and log, out of view of everyone.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks shaymo69 & lukesavva for this cache here today.

Great find

This was the 'just one more' cache for me tonight , thinking that it would be quick, but GZ was adventurous, looking under a lot of rocks before thinking about another spot and there it was, cache was opened, I dont think anything was missing, secured lid , thanks for the cache , was fun Smile

Suscoe's 21st find of the day as we steadily made our way towards Melbourne.
We thought this cache might pose a few problems but thankfully coming equiped with something required the cache was soon located.
Signed and logged and on our way.
Thanks to shaymo69 for placing this cache here.
All quiet at GZ so to speak today.

I came past here, and decided to stop on a whim. At first, the concern was whether I could be seen from the nearby school properties, but my guess as to the cache's hiding spot put paid to that.

And sure enough, there it was. While signing the log, I noted that the cache had been found by some less savoury locals, so I spent a little time making some comments in the log book illegible, and was forced to remove the most defaced pages.

Thanks for the smiley and the short adventure, shaymo69.

shady, tricky spot tftc

Very tricky, great spot! TFTC

Coordinates just got confusing! Sad
 
15-Jan-15
Tried for a quick find on the way home from shopping today. No Luck, thought it would be under the bridge and had the kids looking for it. Looks like a bit of dodgy activities happen at times under the bridge and we didn't like poking around some of the stuff that has been left behind. Decided to give up without that much trying (still think it is under the bridge).

nice hide we saw some people looking at us whilst we found it hopefully their not muggers
 
09-Jan-15
Bit of goat work needed but found it carefully hidden, T4TC
 
29-Dec-14
Found today with Melbermans while out together. Far too much poking around in odd places for our taste, but ok in the end. Tftc.
 
24-Dec-14
Took way longer than it should have.
Found it in the end!

This cache appears to be in need of owner intervention, therefore I am temporarily disabling it so as to stop it showing up on on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

This cache is listed as a Traditional type cache. A traditional cache consists of at least a container and logbook and is located at the posted coordinates. It would appear from logs that this cache is not located at the posted co-ordinates.

Please respond to this situation by 2nd December 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.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days, so as to keep everyone up to date, or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Coordinates changed from:
S 37° 44.890 E 144° 52.926

Coordinates changed to:
S 37° 44.875 E 144° 52.893

Distance from original: 181.1 feet or 55.2 meters.
I have no idea why the co-ordinates where out of whack, however they are now updated.

Thought we'd swing by this one to have a look. It is indeed fortunate that other posted alternate co-ords for we did indeed find ourselves at the locked front gate of St Bernards!

Thanks to shaymo69 for the hunt.

Found by Mary & David at 1250. Our first caching outing, apart from a couple of local ones, since we returned from overseas ten days ago. Gorgeous sunshine and blue skies. Our indicated GZ was almost 60 metres from where we found the cache, but the hint and the terrain rating gave us the necessary pointer to a quick find. We noticed Alsume's coordinates afterwards, and compared them with our own taken on the day, and reckon that they are spot-on. Our thanks to shaymo69 & lukesavva.

Came here knowing I would have to use intuition rather than coordinates, and after sussing out the area settled on a likely location and sure enough turned up the cache at 12:20pm. Hard to get exact coordinates due to the nature of the hide, but I reckon S 37 44.875 E 144 52.893 would get you pretty close - then you just have to troll around until you find it Wink.

thanks shaymo69 & lukesavva

GZ is inside the school property, obviously inaccurate. Cache owner probably needs to go back and get more accurate coordinates. Smile
 
28-Oct-14
I am going to call this a FTF!

I saw this pop into my email today and thought I would go for the first to find, as I approached GZ I did another look via my phone to confirm if I would be a FTF only to see Pwags' comment. I thought to myself lets have a look anyway.

I arrived and parked in a nearby street and walked, after reading the clue to where I thought it would be. After some searching I went back to check the attributes and had an ah moment. (I would remove the park and grab icon).

I then made my way to the likely location and had the cache in hand (well I think it is) signed the log, replaced and was on my way.

I will also say that if this is the cache (and I will message the owners to confirm with some details of what I found) the location has some potentially hazardous rubbish near by so caution is advised (and possibly the removal of the kid friendly icon)

Shaymo69 congratulations on becoming a cache owner

Published - Congratulations on your first cache placement but I have reservations as regards the accuracy of the co-ordinates.
