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

##Cache Maintenance Required please.##
This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit, to address the issue described in the logs.
The cache owner needs to either fix the problem or archive the listing, after picking up any geo-litter. In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page.
See the maintenance section of the [Geocache Hiding Guidelines](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance).
If there is a good reason for a delay in enabling this cache, please post an update note log here on the cache page so that everyone will know what's going on.
When the maintenance is completed, you can re-enable the listing by entering an "Enable Listing" log, and then post an "Owner Maintenance" log to clear the "Needs Maintenance" attribute, if set.
I will check back in 30 days to be sure that the maintenance has been done, or that further information has been provided.
If there has been no action to repair the cache, or explain the situation, unfortunately I will need to Archive this cache. Caches archived because of lack of maintenance will not be unarchived.
The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.
Thank you

Unfortunately, I believe this cache has reached its end. The area is fenced off for housing development and the spot where the cache was (or very close to it) has been scraped to bedrock to place a new road.
There's a very thin chance it'll survive un-noticed, but it'll be a few months before GZ can be accessed again so at a minimum it should be disabled. But I believe the CO is long inactive.

Today was a ride from Marrara to Lee Point for a means to find a DNF from 6 years ago, however it was not to be. SO a ride around getting hopefully a few to make up for it.
There are signs of recent fire so we thought that this was going to be a miss, however was plesantly suprised to find the container all good for a find.

There was a fire through here last week. All the long grass is gone, but the cache survived without issue. Ready to be found.
Too grassy, looked to dangerous, so I did not venture into this unfamiliar territory, sport but I did not like the look of the area.
This was a bit of a struggle with the long grass and I was wearing thongs! So not a terrain 1.5 in summer. I persevered though because I really wanted to grab a cache before I fly out and was running out of time shin I saw the D/T of wet buffalo. Parked on the side of the road and was sweating like crazy as I made my way in dodging sticks and grass and green ants.... touch wood didn’t get bitten by any. I’m giving a FP for the hide that made me smile... indeed wet. This will be paired with the finding of a cache very close to home on the same day. Thanks CO, my darwin trip has been great!
Last cache to find with Low1 this afternoon. Short walk and bingo, the cache was found and happily logged. Added a new log
Great effort for your first time. Loved this hide, TFTC NTSTROM!
I will comment though that we have found a lot of local caches that have online logs but finders have not signed the log. Hmm, not playing the game?

Nicely done. Well camoflauged. A lot of green ants for your troubles though
Nice easy one, great start as we haven’t been geocaching for a while found by Master E

Today we explored Darwin and surrounds picking up a few caches on the way and this was one of them.
An easy find at GZ.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Wonderful to find geocoin

Today had a bit time for a short cachetour. Selected Muirhead and this cache.
Found it easily.
TFTC!

Almost overlooked GZ, but something was just a little out of place, but is was the geo-kid that finally shed some 'light' on the situation. TFTC
Once again thank you jane_tour for doing maintenance here. Nice quick find today. Only name in the new logbook so I'm not sure what previous finders found. Thanks also to NTSTROM for placing this. I'm sure you never expected it to be on the edge of suburbia. Dipped a TB.
Believe we found it.
Cache has unsigned bits of board which remained that way as didn't bring a pen

I've placed a small container and a logbook there temporarily until the owner can arrange for a proper replacement. This is still a good hide and it is NTSTROM's first cache. There are great caches by him and there has been plenty of activity around this area.
We only found a clip of sestima on top of rock. Searched everywhere but nothing. Thanks
Found what's left of the cache. Just a clip - sad. Fire has gone through. Have a photo of the clip to prove we found the location.
We believe we found the spot...lock part of the container found but cache not in sight... ;(
