M.W.M - The entry Vittoria, New South Wales, Australia

I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, Code1, requesting additional time.

An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.

Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

----------

Hi there Code1,

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 don't have a crystal ball, so without your note on the cache page explaining that the site works are on-going, or you have been in hospital, or the area is in flood, they can't tell what is going on with the cache.
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 new 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,

Found but clue is not true! Log book soaked and couldn't get it out. Have a photo of co wants to see proof.

This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.

The rivets made it hard to get out.

We have decided to stay one night in the forest. After setting up camp we headed out to do the caches that were a little further away leaving us to explore the forest in the afternoon.
We were quite surprised to see so many people at the camp ground, quiet a few look as if they have been living here for some time.
We enjoyed our drive around the area, some very scenic locations.
We had to take a second look at this one as we had missed it on our 1st attempt. An extra hint from the CO & reading some logs we managed to make the find. It was caught up making it difficult to spot.
Thankyou Code1 for placing this cache.

Looked everywhere ( we thought) but couldn’t find it. Another day maybe.

Orange 2020 Day 3. I headed out for a long weekend away with Fitzy1965 & MinnieK to cache between Orange and Dubbo. We explored forests and towns and camped at Macquarie Wood. The weather was great and we managed to visit many more caches than I ever expected. The day started with packing up, then we found the remaining caches around the woods here. Lastly we finished the day by getting to as many of the Orange caches as we could in the remaining time.

Thanks.

fitzy_1965, albida33 & I headed out for a long weekend away. Basing ourselves at Macquarie Woods, we ended up visiting Orange, Parkes, Dubbo and lots of towns inbetween.

Day 3 saw us pack up camp early, finish the caches in the Woods then into Orange before heading home.

Quick find here today once we got the new co-ords

20,302. Found with minniek and albida33 during a Canberra Day Long Weekend caching meander around the Orange/Parkes/Dubbo regions.

A plan was hatched for the three of us to head up this way for some quality caching over the 3 days. Day 3 and we packed up camp before trying for all the caches in the Woods. Quick find on this one, then we headed off to Orange for some outstanding caches there.

Thanks Code1 !! Very convenient series !

#2032 Final of tens finds after a short search while travelling back to Sydney from Dubbo. The log sheet is completely saturated from sweating in the plastic bag. Tried to sign but more etched than signed. Needs some CO TLC. TFTC

Bit wet

We moved to Macquarie Woods today from Bathurst as it is such a lovely place to camp. After consulting with the owner and advising the entry to the park has now changed we rehid a new container at the new entry point. Thanks to Code1 for hiding this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.

Fantastic forestry! Even saw a beautiful Deer on the side of the road! Awesome trail to follow

Nice to be greeted.

Reach, reach. found it TFTC

#317 On my way home from field days in Orange, why not stretch the legs with a cache or two. Didn't know this reserve existed, thanks for bringing me here.

Quick find on a lovely sunny morning. TFTC

Just picking up a few caches around the area with goingplaces2. This was a nice quick find, log was signed and was replaced as found. Camped here for the night. TFTC.

Caching far away from home, stayed at the nearby woodlands camping site on a cold night. What better way to warm up then get out and do some nearby caches. A easy find. Tftc

#3472 After our overnight stay, GM and I with Duffco found some caches in this area. Great track to drive on and nice pines. TFTC.

Another good find while looking around the area.
Thanks.

Tftc on a Sunday drive

A quick detour and an even quicker park and grab, thanks.

Quick find after walking out from the reserve where I'm camped for the week - lovely spot to spend some time over Easter. TFTC and the recent maintenance Code1.

As were were camping here for the night we thought we had better log in a local cache find to represent the area on this visit. It was an easy find and all was put back as found after the log had been signed. Thanks go to Code1 for this cache placement. No muggles happened along while we were there.

Cache replaced.

Last M.W.M cache for today (we will come back and look for Big Brother now we know that it has been replaced).
The container had, as mentioned before, been squashed. We managed to fix it a bit, so that at least now the log fit in it and the lid could be closed. Noted though in recent log that it has now been replaced by the CO.

As noted by the previous finder, the cache was squished, but I was able to pull out the log. Unfortunately after signing I discovered the log in the plastic baggy would not go back into the cache itself. Left the cache with the "door" open, so may not be weather proof any longer. Thanks for bringing us here today.

Found on ground squished... put back on sign, but may need replacing

TFTC, good fun, easy find.

was having a lazy day , then boom baby , 8 virgins to be had sat down to load the gps's and nothing went straight for me [:(!][:o)]
but went back to semi ol'scool and bam the data loaded , off into the west we go, the Silver Bullet on a mission
turn at the right spot , very familiar to us for many years , the smell of fresh cache was ripe in the air , will we be first was the question, quick as find with spot on coord made a fine start to the rest of the adventure opening the log revealed we were the champions of the woods blank log
Can it get cooler , well yes it can, 7 more blank logs
Some very cool caches with lots of time and thought going into them No:6 gave us a little grief , if i had of gone further with the investigation 5 minutes earlier , when i played with the camo , would have been nearly instant
Thanx heaps Code1 for a fun little drive, highly recommend the run, we took 1hr neat
cheers from the Routers

I had woken to find a heap of new caches out there but having had a good win at rugby and with a sore head the lure of more sleep overwhelmed the new caches.

Finally got our act together and went for a drive. JB was more interested in trying to lock down the gps direction when I came back with the cache in hand. Nice quick find to start what ended up a very enjoyable drive. Thanks Code1
