Bit tricky as there is lots of tree stumps in the area. It is about 3m off track
Out in the area and saw this cache had been moved and replaced with a DNF so very tempting to come and out I came!
New location coordinates and hint are both accurate although my phone was jumpy for a few minutes. Found it in the first place I looked!
Thanks for the find and maintenance!

Are around cache has been cleaned up which is nice, however they took the cache with the rubbish. It has now been replaced in a slightly different spot.
###Cache Maintenance Visit Required please.###
This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache.
I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it checked by the Cache Owner.
The cache owner needs to:
* Investigate the situation and either restore the cache, or address any other issues, such as correcting the D/T rating if necessary.
* 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 keepy2004 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 there, and 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 you

Found a stump but no cache. Got within one metre fighting the scrub and vine but no cache. Moving on. Cheers.

My 3rd of 10 Latrobe hides before heading onto Spreyton then Devonport
The cache was found and the log was signed at 10:23 on the still, cool and partly cloudy day of Tuesday 23 November 2021. Plenty of parking space nearby
The cache and contents are in A1 condition

A great name in these parts and a lovely walk. Lots of creeper at ground level but soon enough I had your cache.
Cheers

It was wonderful to hear that Teddy Sheean finally received recognition for his heroic actions by being awarded the Victoria cross in December last year. Thanks for placing this cache allowing more people to learn about this incredible young man.
The cache was found in the last place we looked, which as usual was not the first place we looked. Thanks for placing a fun cache guys. We do love your work. We signed the logbook. Of course we did that is way we play this game. Cache in pretty good condition for the cache age.

Easter 2020 was supposed to see South Australia Geocaching hosting the next Easter big MEGA event, GeoVenture 2020 at Millicent. GC82DAN. Due to COVID restrictions the event is now postponed to early October 2021. Check out the event page and our website for new details. We would love to see you at this four day event. Mega event sponsored by Wattle Range Council, Geocaching.com and many other supporters. Lots of caches to find with two classic geo art trails including the famous animated bottle and glass.

This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and a Samsung S8. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs...
Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun.

We have loved our time in Tasmania and we couldn’t ask for better weather on our final day. Today we chose some favourite places to explore and relax before returning to Victoria including Latrobe & Sheffield.
Thank you for highlighting this area with your cache.

TaurusSix and I found the cache. It has been muggled. I found the base and lid separate under dirt, and the log on the ground a little away. Then I found the cache note. Signed damp log and put it all together and hid according to the hint.
Thanks for the cache keepy2004.
Up north for a few days with RLD4963 and the GeoGSP. Today we were heading back home, but we had time to grab a few caches after having an early lunch in Latrobe. This was a nice quick find at GZ.

Thanks for the cache. Apologies for the generic cache. Spent four days 'up north; with Lil Rafa and the GeoGSP. Today was day 4, a bit cloudy today, but no rain, so another good day for caching. Today we did a bit of a circle, before heading back to Latrobe (again) for more caches and lunch, and then a couple along the highway as we headed back home. Thanks to all the co's for placing the caches for our enjoyment.
Great enjoyed around of 6 caches before prior final cache..
what a beautiful day sunny today than yesterday poured raining ...
Nice spot, sign the log with good dry as no trouble...
thank you keepy2004 for greatly

Up from Hobart Mrs W travelled to the Community Event at Latrobe with Tassie Trekkers in pouring rain. As we had a day of caching planned we packed a change of clothes and the rain coats. Arriving in Latrobe around 8.30 am we cached until 7.30 pm and had an enjoyable break at the event for two hours. Our list of caches changed as the weather improved or worsened so we will have missed a few. Gives us a reason to return. TFTC
Today we headed to Latrobe with whitewebbs to attend the community event and took the opportunity to find some caches in the area and this was one of them.
Although it rained most of the day we were still able to enjoy day and we visited some areas not been to before.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Quick find while the kids played on the equipment. Ps, love the book exchange nearby. TFTC
Working towards a milestone and needing only a few more finds we decided to do some caching in Latrobe on our way home from Launceston. This cache was a quick find, after reading recent logs we expanded our search area a little. The area was deserted which made the search easy. TFTC
