Hi there piggysue,
This cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as a cache that **MAY** need some attention.
You may recall having received an automated email from Geocaching HQ which explained what you needed to do.
Unfortunately, nothing seems to have happened, so I am having to take the next step and temporarily disable the cache - see here: [**Geocache Health Score.**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713)
**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 to check, repair, 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 the above. Well, when the cache is next checked by a Reviewer, if the issue has not been addressed, or there is no acknowledgment as requested above, it will be assumed the cache has been abandoned and processed accordingly.
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.
Thanks for your cooperation,
Bunjil

I had a look in what I thought were the obvious spots but no sign of it. Quite a few fallen trees so maybe it's been displaced?
Had look around, but not too keen on rummaging in the bush. Looks like area been used as a toilet.
Came here with my 5 year old son, recently divorced. Could not find this cache. Son is inconsolable, afraid I will lose custody over him. I don’t think I can ever feel love again
found it, if was open on the ground in plain site, don’t think that’s where it’s ment to go
I driven on this road so many times and had idea this was here, thanks I did the circuit walk today
First time finding this one took my friend out for the first time geocaching and she found it very quickly not knowing what to look for
Lovely walk and fantastic lookout.
We found this on 8/8/21. Didn't have a pen on us to log our details.

OMG! what a view. This site reminds me off a passionate Matthew Flinders scholar, Anwyn Martin RIP. TFTC
Thanks for bringing me to this place that I never knew existed. Fabulous views. Cache was dry and in fine condition. A favourite from me.
Lots of people when we reached the right are. Turned out they were scattering Grandma. So that was awkward. Found the cache and got out of there ASAP! Tftc
Awesomely beautiful views and a wonderful cache to commemorate them.
Up here today with my hiking group and had time for a short scout around where I found the treasure.
Thank you piggysue

Thank you piggysue
With my 2 geokids and another really keen, freshly introduced. Nice view from here! TFTC
Stunning view of the bay, the heads and out to the ocean. The colonial wording on the cairn inspired me to read up on the indigenous history of the area - the Boonwurrung locals called this place Wonga after the Wonga pigeon that flocked here to nest apparently... geokiddies are into the game now and made the find despite a few muggles TFTC
Quickly spotted the right place - unfortunately people do not take their rubbish or used masks home.
Great spot, except for the improvised trash can / toilet right near the cache. . Thank you!
Lovely view from here found it without a pen but fortunately some other Geocachers were here to lend me one. Here with the family, loving the walk today, thank you!
It's an easy walk here from Seawind Gardens, and the views are great. Finding a cache here was the cherry on top. Thanks piggysue

Thanks for the cache! Brilliant view, and a nice spot away from most of the people. (The log's getting pretty full.)
Walked right past this cache and literally saw it and ignored it. Decided to call quits and as I was walking off decided to look at one last thing which I ignored and what do you know there it was. TFTC such great views
Beautiful drive and amazing view. A bit tricky to find the box, can be overlooked but shouldn't be too hard to spot it. Enjoy
We could see where it was but too many muggles so didn’t actually open it. Nice spot though.
Today was supposed to be a small family get together down on the coast with a 10 kilometer walk. However with one of the kids injuring their foot, plan B was enacted. This was a much smaller walk around Arthur's Seat. Geocaching wasn't even the plan for a change.
However after passing the Flinders Memorial, how could I not stop to look when I was so close. Took so long with the amount of people around before I was about to jump off the path. Then quickly found and signed the cache hidden away. However getting back on the path, a few people saw me, but of course no one courage to ask me what I was doing. Then had to run uphill to catch up with the rest of the family
Thanks for the cache Piggy Sue

How the world has changed since I found this cache. I was caching with Mieleikki, who was visiting from Hungary. We enjoyed some nice walks around this area today. The talk of coronavirus was there, but it was all very new. Fast forward to now and everything is a bit more serious, although there seems to be light at the end of the tunnel. Unfortunately, Mieleikki had to cut her Australian holiday short and return home, but we had a great day out today fining select caches.
This was an interesting one. There was a steady stream of muggles at GZ and although we could spot the likely hide, it was difficult to get a break in the traffic to make the find. Eventually Mieleikii made the jump and was rewarded with the find, whilst I stood lookout.
Great spot, lovely cache!

On our way to Sorrento we stopped this morning at Arthur's Seat, enjoyed a great view over the bay, had a nice walk - and found this nice little cache.
Unfortunately I had forgotten my pen in the car, so I had to use the old, small, green one that was in the box. I hope the log is readable.
Thanks for showing this nice place.
