Hi there Yenoromm,
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 could not find this cache. I am not sure if it is there or not, so I will watch it.
Grass around pole at GZ is fenced off.... too hard to look properly without attracting unwanted attention. Unless of course the CO owns the house it is near.
after a night run with my brother we decided to go have a look around shane we didn’t have a pen so we left 1 piece of hair hahaha
There was a damaging hailstorm here this afternoon. I was talking to a few locals about what what happened, and a lady walking a dog happened to be the mother of the owner. The log is greatly in need of tidying up - it's all there since 2007. The original notebook, and maybe 6 to 8 scraps of paper people have added - all damp, fragile and stuck together. I couldn't find any of the latest logs, so I found a spot amongst old entries at the front of the notebook. Unless a new notebook is provided, people will just keep adding little scraps of paper to the mess! Anyway, I found it to be a very friendly neighborhood. The residents today were all too busy looking at cracked car windscreens and broken skylights to take much notice of a cacher poking around!
A quick find to start our day of caching in the area. Thank you for keeping this one alive for such a long time Yenorom Rangers.
On this Melbourne Cup day it was great that the local aged care was having a cup function so our car blended in with the relatives cars. A quick and easy find - log book was slightly damp and nearly full. TFTC The Yenorom Rangers
On a quiet and sunny day an easy find after reading the hint. This cache was well needed due to our lack of success with our previous cache. TFTC.
An interesting hide in ugly suburbia. The log is damp and it was difficult to find somewhere to sign as the pages are sticking together. Tftc
I'll second geo_seek's comments - I felt intrusive and the log is wet. But it's survived a long time - thanks Yenorom Rangers for keeping it in play.
Felt like I was intruding a little bit in the neighbourhood. Logbook was seriously wet and needs replacing
Tricky as there were two open for inspections in this street and people working on a roof nearby. Managed to sign the log book without being spotted!
Been for a drive around in Templestowe with a very hot day over 42 degrees. Found it and logged in. Good one. Thanks Yenorom Rangers for placing the cache.
Getting it out was the hardest part. And then we had a minor freak out when we thought a live hug had run over our hands. But we survived!
Cool Spot. Very Creative.
We went to “Down The Rabbit Hole” to find it. Turns out it was like another 100 meters to walk there.

Working in the area this morning and I suddenly found myself with some free time. Caching my way to the next job sounds like a good idea to me. This one was very close to the job so naturally it was the first one I found. Cache was tucked away nicely but no match for this geocacher. TNLNSL. TFTC. Kkams.
Saw the cache while walking toward the GZ!
The logbook needs a maintenance as there is no space available to sign. The first log dated back to 2007!

I promised myself a few Christmas caches today and knew it was time to take my leave as the kids wheeled out the karaoke machine
Driving to GZ from our host’s house a few hundred meters down the road I was able to arrive swiftly.
Checked out a few of the less obvious places for some reason, then did a round like I should have initially and had the cache in hand shortly after.
TFTC and for being a part of my day.

Pole position indeed. Geodad dropped son to soccer training and then dashed up the hill in the geomobile. Through the chicanes, slowed a little for the hairpin and then pulled in for a very brief pitstop at the GZ.
Easy find and quick sign, and we were away faster than you can say "splash and dash". TFTC

Nice easy one for the start of the month. Seven down in the dozens challenge. Tftc
Out caching with quiet1_au today. I spotted the cache, while Q got it as we navigated a muggle neighbour. TFTC
A relatively quick drive-by for lochb and I, parking at GZ for cover we had a quick search and lochb spotted the cache tucked away. We had a rushed log and replacement as the residents came home but not a problem. TFTC
A quick drive by just like the description said, thanks. This is almost the 10 year anniversary!
Found after a brief search - larger than I thought it would be for such a location. TFTC

Suscoe had a big day out today with 40 finds in total as we wandered the streets around this area.
After yesterday's 43 degrees heat we were enjoying the below 20 degrees coolness with typical Southern Victorian Summer weather in full swing.
It was a drizzly old day with a decent breeze and some rain at times. Cloud covered the sky all day.
Thanks to The Yenorom Rangers for placing this cache.
All quiet at Gz today.
Cache was in good order.
We removed an inappropriate advertising card left by someone,

Searching parcells have found it again. Stone throw from home. Took seal and jaguar and left some tattoo's.
Nice quick find this evening. I must say though that the log book could do with some attention!
Thanks for the cache.

I had a day to spare in Melbourne today before getting down to work here tomorrow. So I decided to head out and see how many caches I could find on foot. After 7.5 hours walking about, I had found 43 caches (including a few not from this series) and encountered a small number of DNFs, DNAs and MIAs. Not one of the series caches but one I found on my way back to where I left my car. TFTC, Biggles.
A tip for future searchers, please bring a small logbook as the CO has not maintained this cache for some years. The container was also broken at some point in the past so *may* also require replacing.
This is an older cache now and the only one still active from this caching team.

Last one in a 20 cache day. By the time we reached GZ we were pooped, but a nice easy find rounded out our day. Log book is soaked and pretty much destroyed. TFTC!
I was on my way home after a morning of cycling and caching on a cold and windy day. I thought that I would fill in the single outlying caches. This was my ninth for the day. A quick find. TFTC.
This cache was a quick and easy drive by. Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.
