Logs
### Cache Maintenance Visit Required please.###This geocache has been brought to my attention as needing an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache. See the [GCHQ Health Score](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713) process.I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it checked by the Cache Owner. The cache owner needs to:* Take action to restore the cache or address issues such as correcting the D/T rating.* Re-enable the cache by posting an Enable log* Post an Owner Maintenance log to advise what has been done and to clear any Needs Maintenance attribute which is present. Otherwise :* Post a Note Log to request more time if necessary or provide other information.. **Do not use an Owner Maintenance log for this. That is for use only **when you actually do something to repair the cache**. Alternatively:* Archive the cache, and remove any remaining geo-litter from the site.In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page to await owner action by Morgo the geo and to take it off the playing board to prevent further geocaching community inconvenience.[Please see the maintenance section of the Geocache Hiding Guidelines.](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance)**I will check back in 30 days** to see that action has been by the CO.If nothing has happened, I will assume that the cache has been abandoned, and, unfortunately, I will need to Archive this cache. *Caches archived because of lack of maintenance/abandonment will not be unarchived.*The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is in good condition, waiting to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.Please see [my profile page](https://www.geocaching.com/p/default.aspx?u=Balayang) for additional information.Thank youBalayangCommunity Reviewer -Australia
This one has had a great run over the years. Time to open the space up for a new hide.
I think this one has gone missing. Can the next geocacher replace the cache please.
Could not find! So frustrated as feeling very silly because everyone else said it was easy.
Great view, the walk up from the falls was a pain but it’s definitely worth it in the end.
Which forked grass tree?! Took us longer than it should have but Mr atCat finally made the find. Beautiful view from this spot - we're glad this cache made us stop. TFTC Morgo the geo
Took Uncle Punkclint for his first geocache, and this was it: being close enough to home, and a typical bush hide. Did a couple more along Park road before heading back south. Thanks for the cache. Did a bit of CITO there as well as some local scumbags just leave their fast food packaging everywhere. Nice little part of the world. TFTC
I was out for the day with a non-geocaching girlfriend. We had decided to see some of the nature sights around Perth, and John Forrest Park was our choice for today.
Having found one geocache, my friend was hooked. We set off around the road (not that we had much choice in which way to drive!), and stopped to look for this one. We probably made it a little bit harder than we needed to, and it took quite a while to find it. But find it, we did!
We went on to find several more caches during out day out. I probably got a little bit too much sun, and my feet are a bit sore, but it really was a delightful day out.
Thanks for this cache, Morgo the geo!

Had to explain to some people all about geocaching as their car was parked right where we wanted to be and we didn't want to look suspicious. Quick find afterwards. TFTC
Some really great views around this beautiful area. Nice quick park and grab, TFTC and bringing us to this special place Morgo the geo!
NB: We did pick up a TB from this cache even though none were showing in the inventory. I will log it shortly so the owner can follow its progress.

Out with Team Barritts finding smiley's. Tftc and bringing us to such a beautiful spot.
Just for interest, the TB was marked as MIA. It was dropped off at a cache in the Barossa SA - EEBTCPGGS (GC6YTW4) on the 11/04/19 and then later reported as missing on the 14/07/19. So nearly a year and it has resurfaced again! We will move it around with us and then drop it off to continue its travels.

We found it but it was difficult because the app took us on a wild goose chase
On our trip through south west of Australia, we drove the Scenic Drive from the John Forrest NP. At 11:10 we came to this cache and found it without any problems.
No trade.
Thanks, Axel XXXX and Petra from Berlin, Germany

Headed over to John Forrest NP for a Boxing Day walk. Never usually come in via Park Road but it's a lovely drive that I will be sure to do again. After stopping at the nearby Perth Lookout cache I carried on a little further and then stopped here to admire another great view. There are actually two forked grass trees here, however the cache was still a very fast find Picked up the unusual trackable button TB and will help move on Thanks for placing in this great little spot. No problems with the cache, a quick easy find - TFTC
On our way back to Perth we made a stop in the John Forrest Nationalpark. We walked on the Nationalpark Falls Trail and the Railway Reserve Heritage Trail. It is a really beautiful Nationalpark.
We have 2 months for holiday in Australia. My aim is to find every day a Cache. This is our 29th day and my 31th logged Cache.

Had the chance to meet up with our dear friends from Canberra , the 2 N's. Decided to tackle a few caches in the Nationalpark before having a nice lunch together. The cache was found after a short search. tftc sl tnln
Lots of spots it could have been here, it was just a case of going through them.
Had a good look around but no luck for us this time... we'll come back again soon and give it another go
Headed up this way today to place the traffic control movable cache. Had the morning free and thought of heading up the hill with it.

A day off work and spending it in John Forest National Park.
Nice quick find here, now off to get some lunch at the tavern.

Thanks for a fun find. Agree with previous posts to be careful of all the broken glass around.
Great views of other sections of the park from here. There were quite a few possibilities for hiding spots but turned it up eventually. TFTC Morgo the geo.
Another beautiful view from this cache. The smaller Feral Dragons had fun clambering over all the huge rocks.

Wow, great hide, it was my second attempt at this one. Great view too.
Lots of muggles about due to school holidays.

What a beautiful spot, whilst geo son was posing for a photo for me he found it, great hide
Clevett was quicker than me on this one. Nice way to spend Mother's Day afternoon with my fellow cacher and mum
