Unfortunately, I cannot see any information that indicates that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement. Therefore as advised previously, the cache is being de-listed (Archived) to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

The [**Geocache Maintenance guideline**](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance) explains what needs to happen with a Disable cache.

Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained in the Help Center article [**here**](http://support.groundspeak.com//index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70).

If you wish to contact me please send an email via my profile - [**Bunjil**,](https://coord.info/PR9GZ0K) and quote the cache name and GC number.

---------

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

----------

I notice from one or more log entries that this cache would seem to be in need of some help - **there appears to be a need for owner intervention.**

Therefore, the cache is being temporarily disabling so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

The guidelines indicated that periodic visits to check on the cache, as well as prompt attention to any logs that indicate there is a problem, are part of the [**cache owners responsibilities.**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance) I cannot see any log that indicates a recent visit by the CO to this cache.

If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to [**Disable it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=235) - I have Disabled it for you this time.

**Can you please respond to this situation (or indicated your intention) by **27th September,** so others know exactly what is happening with this cache?

You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:

- Repair and/or Replace your cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the praises.

- If you don't plan on fixing it up then please [**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.

- If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (by 27th September). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when I next look at the cache page, it is likely that I will unfortunately have to de-list (Archive) the cache 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.

TFTC NEEDS MAINTENANCE WATER LOGGED

Spent 20 minutes looking but could not find a 1 litre container.

Aku berhati-hati, tapi tidak menemukan cachenya!

Wonderful afternoon out to Wee Jasper with fitzy_1965. I've never ventured this way but will definitely be back. The rock formations are absolutely amazing....next time I better not drive so I can really enjoy the view.

fitzy wanted to show me Fitzpatrick Trackhead as he had been here many times before. It just started to spit rain as we pulled up near the stye in the fence. A quick change of shoes for me and a hurried walk up and over and onto GZ. My GPS had me going in circles a bit but fitzy headed me in the right direction. Unfortunately, the lid of the cache has been cracked and long past its use by date. log back has clearly been exposed for awhile but I was still able to sign it. Have covered it the best I could.

Time to do a few caches in the Wee Jasper area while waiting for trail walkers to return to the Fitzpatrick trailhead. Loved the area and the pristine waters and landscape!
TFTC Wilbert67

Out this way for the weekend braving the cold and exploring the caves in the area. Had such a fantastic weekend caving, abseiling, and zip-lining through the punchbowl cave.
After packing up the tent, decided to walk over and find this cache, with intention of dropping off a TB I was overdue to get rid of. But after finding the cache soaking wet with no lid decided against it.
Lovely spot and area!!
This cache is in need of maintenance. Thanks for the hide

10517 and 1st of 2 found today.

Never having been to the Cave we decided to head out today and have lunch as well. After the preliminaries were over I decided that a cache was needed and as FFP used to camp here, here we came.

Thanks for the cache t_reez and the highs.

This cache has a broken lid, as mentioned by an earlier cacher, and the contents were soggy, especially the log book.

Left as protected as possible, but needs urgent attention by CO.

That was a challenge by myself, but I got here and found the cache. Unfortunately the cache is very wet condition. The lid has broken and it has very little protection from the elements. Great spot! TFTC

Found during a lazy Saturday morning drive home after working around Tumut/Tumbarumba. The camp ground was empty bar a learner driver doing reverse parks, but there were a couple of muggles checking out the info sign just down the hill from GZ. I had a bit of a look out the outcrops and grabbed the cache once the muggles were out of sight. Emptied water and re-covered the cache in the crevice as best I could. Log is damp but not mouldy yet. Needs a new box. Many thanks t_reez

Plans were made to head out on Saturday to do a spot of caching but the weather wasn't the best so Saturday turned into Sunday for us as the weather was beautiful today. RW was in need of some Earth caches to log a challenge cache she had signed while we were away awhile ago. So a drive was in order to collect two of them for her and off to Wee Jasper we went. Lovely day out and about.

Lots of muggles were around here today. Parked nearby this one and wandered over and soon had the cache in hand. This cache needs a little TLC.

Thanks for the cache t_reez and thanks for the company RW.

With the horrid weather yesterday, caching didn't happen so plans were made to get out and about today as both myself and FFLL had itchy feet. We decided a drive out to Wee Jasper was in order and mother nature put on her best for us It was an amazing day out in the country, HEAPS of photos taken, lots of laughter and chatter. A brilliant day of caching with no DNF's to boot

As we continued our adventure around Wee Jasper area, this was the next cache on our radar. We entered Fitzpatrick Reserve to see a large number of Army Cadets preparing for their caving adventures. Enjoy kiddos Parked up nearby and wandered over towards GZ. A little ascending then descending and soon the cache was located. Unfortunately though this cache is in desperate need of CO attention as the lid is non existent (completely smashed) and the container will full of water. We emptied the water out and signed the log (half the book is wet, other half is damp).

Thanks heaps for the company today FFLL and thanks for the cache t_reez [^]

This geocacher reported that the container is damaged.

While the tadpoles were busy running around in the late afternoon sun, it was a perfect opportunity to grab one of the caches closer to our camp at Billy Grace. Given the holes in the area I though this would be a difficult one to find, but ultimately an expanded search area was necessary to find it.

The cache is not in a good way, it's likely the original container as it's significantly perished and does not seal. Despite this, the contents are in good shape, must be the glove on top. As it appears the CO has not been around for some time, it's unlikely to be replaced anytime soon.

TFTC t_reez

Found 10:07 11/3/17. Was a little worried the nearby leaves were covering a cave. The lid of the container is broken. There was water in the cache, but the log is dry. Thank you t_reez for the cache.

S35 08.340 E148 40.228
My Garmin had this about ten metres from GZ, and preferred: S35 08.340 E148 40.228
However, clambering about located the cache. A new cache is needed, as the lid is broken. All my spare caches were either too big to fit here, or smaller than a cache here deserves to be. TFTC t_reez.

Our GPS told us to look around a flat area. When we realised that this cache is T3, we starting clambering around and soon had CIH. The container has a cracked lid, but everything within was still dry. TFTC

Out with Just a cacher for a lazy Sunday drive and a few caches.

An easy grab but the cache is starting to suffer UV damage. A new container will be needed very soonj,

Thanks for the cache t reez

Out with Black Bunny on a Sunday drive to grab a few caches on the back roads. A nice scenic drive and an easy grab here today.

Thanks for the cache t reez.

Awesome cache found while spending the long weekend camping at Billy Grace.

Found many times over the last three years but for some reason I haven't logged this cache before, my first login is three years ago!! Anyway, the caves we (as in scouts) explored this week include Dogleg (definitely doesn't need stuff), Signature, Punchbowl, Dip 4 (an amazing cave) that we followed through to Dip2. Skills practised this weekend include abseiling and rescues, this was a great weekend but a bit exhausting. Thanks for the geocache in a special adventure place, this is another favourite.

We were spending easter camped at Tumorrama and decided to trek over here today and do a few caches. We saw some great sights while out and loved visiting a part of the country we haven’t seen before.
Luckily it didn't take us to long to discover the container at GZ before having a quick look around the area. We have decided we should come back here some time for a whole weekend.
TFTC.

Although we have no caving experience, the caretakers at Wee Jasper mentioned that signature cave was accessible without equipment (apart from torches!). We managed to follow the directions and access the start of the cave but chickened out at the muddy slippery slide into the first chamber. Not sure we would have got back up that so better not to risk it!! Luckily we were able to collect this cache while in the area as an added bonus. It took quite a hunt but turned up in an easy spot in the end. Thanks t_reez

A group of exhausted cavers, lots of thistles and a fear of uncovering a snake on a balmy summer's day amongst the leaves and rocks meant that this one will need to wait for another caving trip. So close, but not close enough today.

#879 Fairly easy find with the Green-martian. Cache contained 1 abseiling glove, but 2 would have been more practical! Thanks t_reez.

Quick find in a very prickly area. Cheers.

Found with toy hunters. Great spot!

Today, as part of our caving trip for Outdoor Ed, we came to Wee Jasper for an overnight camp. After some caving last night and some good times at the Shearers Quaters, we came to Devil's Punchbowl today to do some abseiling. As a collective class, we failed to find the cache while abseiling, but we decided to come up here to find this cache on the way back to the bus. After getting to GZ, it took a few minutes before any of us found it. Luckily, Sam found it soon enough (he wants full credit for finding it). Took a dinosaur in exchange for a abseiling glove - hopefully it will be to good use for someone. TFTC t_reez! Oh, yeah, don't fall down that big hole near GZ - chances are that you won't be found!

Found this morning with JetFuselage and WhiteChocolateMocha. The GPS was mucking up and had us going in all directions but JetFuselage's eagle eyes picked this up as we scouted the general vicinity. TFTC

Found with my parents, TFTC

Found with my geowife and geoson, TFTC

It is the big absel required to find somthing in the area that attracted the bananas to the area.
But with very little knowledge of the area this treasure was on the very path of prickles and destruction we had taken to investigate.
We found this one a little worse for wear due to a broken lid that was draining all the rainwater into the storage area. We left it upside down to drain. But the zip lock bag was working a treat.
Anyway we found this treasure, our objective and the easy path back.
Thanks t_reez.

Went for a drive to find some caches and check out some camping spots. TNLN TFTC

Number 5 of 10 found today.
Thanks for the cache, but running out of time.
Must head back to Canberra so will take on Vertical Two another day.
Grab an apple from the tree on the way.

Easy to find, thankfully the blackberry had been cut back. Fantastic spot, TFTC

My family and I were camping at Wee J on our annual camping trip with friends. Geokid and two of my friend's muggle kids came along to experience geocaching. This was the first find we made. Young Nick scratched up his leg on nearby brambles whilst getting to the cacheso we took a bandaid and left a dice. TFTC t-reez. It was a good start to the day.

A quick find after an exhausting day in Punchbowl cave and finding Vertical 2.
Thanks for the cache.

Found at 9.40am, We were camped just a couple of hundred metres away, We spent the morning exploring the caves as best we could,
We hadn't brought our ropes with us so were somewhat limited, but enjoyed the morning just the same.
TNLN
Thanks

Rated: for Overall Experience

At the Fitzpatrick Trackhead Campground waiting for the abseiling Venturers I dropped off yesterday to be ready to go home. Awesome opportunity to find a geocache.
Back in 1989 when the Hume and Hovell Walking Track had been newly opened, this was the starting point for a hike to Tumut for my Queen Scout Award and Gold Duke of Edinburugh Award. It's a little different now, definitely used a lot more but also heaps of blackberries on the track (that weren't there 20 odd years ago).
It was nice to grab a cache and reflect on the hike I undertook many years ago. There was also a geocoin.

Found at 4:14:00 PM.

After having to cancel a planned visit due to a virus outbreak (them not us) geowife suggested a trip out to Wee Jasper to look at a cave. So we packed the car and away we went.

This track is a bit overgrown, I don't reckon it gets too many visitors. The advice to watch where you step was good for the blackberries and the holes in the ground. For some reason it took a little while to find, but that was recitified by biewing from the right angle. Dropped coin.

Thanks t reez

Found with 3InOne after a day of caving and abseiling instructing for a Father Son camp.

Found with B_ronwyn after she had taken us abseiling & caving as part of the nearby Mountain Trails Adventure School. Great to meet you B_ronwyn & help you find your first Australian cache.

Great hide! Found with GeoStudents on a school camp.
This one took a while to find, but found it eventually. It was very tempting to search down many of the natural unmarkedcaves around.
TFTC!

Been around here a few times but never realised there was a geocache
good hide, lots of fun.

2115 GAFF1 Would think that I have been here MANY years ago, well before caching days.
A nice walk in with MVMB, but a bit of a search around the area being careful of the cave entrances.
While i had some abseiling gear in the car tonight was not the time to use it with just the two of us.
Left a black pen, otherwise TNLNSL.
Will book mark for the Night Caching elective.

While Cookie had some gear for going down a cave we found quite near the cache GZ we thought better of trying that with just the two of us. Well hidden (the cave and the cache). Think I left a pair of scissors here. Otherwise TNLNSL
TFTC t reez

2477. A nice stroll and a quick find while the rest of the crew were preparing lunch after some abseiling close by. TFTC.

Took us a while because the track was too tempting. Lots of blackberries but great hiding spot.

After an extended visit at the tourist caves nearby, it was good to see the (entrances of the) 'wild' ones nearby. GPS was wandering a bit, and found some nice deep holes while looking. Got tangled in a few blackberries while looking, but eventually spotted it.

Despite having driven past here many times, I've never actually been to this spot before.

Thanks.

Wild goose chase at first then backtracked and bam!

No luck today

Thanx t_reez great little cache. Just enough intrigue to keep us on our toes!! Great campsite nearby. Might have to come back another day to stay overnight.

FOUND THIS ONE ON A ROUND GEO TRIP, EASY WALK AND HEAPS OF ROCKS, TOOK A WHILE TO FIND AS IT IS WELL HIDDEN, GREAT CAMPING AREA NEAR BY WHEN ITS NOT TO BUSY. THANKS.

Found with a geofriend on our trip to tour Carey's Caves at Wee Jasper (fantastic place!). Parked nearby then made the stroll to GZ. Dodged a few blackberry thorns but found the cache easy. Lots of campers around the place enjoying a long weekend getaway! Thanks t reez!

Another great spot, left a zip tie .TFTC. Found with Joe and Ma

What a fantastic camping area. TGC

Relaxing camping weekend - apart from freezing nights. Winter is coming. Found this log fairly close to our campsite without too much drama (apart from the blackberries). Left a hula girl, took a wrist band. TFTC t_reez.

Kids and I rode up from Billy Grace, went and explored the entrances to the caves a bit further up the hill before finding the cache. Forgot to bring a pen (even after reading other logs that said they forgot a pen) so we came back later with a pen (and torches for the cave) to log then headed back home after a great few days around Wee Jasper. The kids are well and truly hooked on geocache now

A quick find after attending this morning's Scouts Own up in the entrance to Punchbowl Cave.
Found with 2 of the 2nd Castle Hill troop.

SL TFTC

Parked about 150 meters from the cache. Walked up, don't recommend wearing thongs, and found the cache safe and sound. Signed the log!

Walked from the Billy grace reserve for this one, and realized we didn't bring a pen! So we took action with some berries and a stick!

A day out with Bruce's Run, The Keswick Kid and Sammy found us venturing around the hills near Wee Jasper. Found after a bit of a round trip only to realise we did not have a pen. Had to make do with a stick dipped in to some berry juice, made our mark and onward. Oooops, have to go back to pick up the GPS left sitting on the rock next to GZ! GPS recovered and off again.

Yup, we took the hard way in all right - came in from way above and discover we didn't have a pen to sign the log. Not to be perturbed we improvised with a sharp stick and not quite ripe bramble juice!
Tftc

Lots of thorns, but loved the caves nearby. TFTC

Found in fading light after a great day around Wee Jasper Found some fabulous fossils

Our first first true geocache! Lots of fun!

nice easy little find. Geokids found it on the way to a bigger prize

On the way there - watch those thorns! TFTC

#7 5.30pm
We found this one in the fading sunlight, after a great day out at the Wee Jasper Naturally weekend. We went on the history walk around the village in the morning and the fossil tour in the afternoon.
GZ is an interesting place with the caves and beautiful views back over the valley.
TN, left heart pendant and bug stickers. TFTC.

Nice little walk - will come back in summer for camping.
Luckily we read the description for vertical two before we went on. Turned around and walked straight back to the carpark.

Another easy find in an interesting area. TNLN. HOTA

Strangely it's been a while since this cache has been logged. Found it at about 12.05 this afternoon while at a scout camp here.

Came to GZ from below and then above, taking extra care not to accidently find any holes. Eventually made the find and realised the name of this excellent cache.

Many thanks t reez, from a Hathi. A perfect location for a cache.

Cheers
MajuraHathi

Tftc great place so many great memories inside these hills! Was reminded of this spot Friday 0510 when I was awoken by earthquake that's epicenter was here. No aftershocks felt

Forgot the pen have To go back to sign!

Used this as an introduction to some friends to geocaching. Great cache
TFTC TNLN

II picked this one up as I left Michalong Creek. I had expected a longer walk, after reading some of the logs, but it was quite a short walk. tftc, tnln.
Cv.

Heading for home to attend a function from the Scout camp today I detoured to grab this cache. I have spent many an hour (days or months more like) both near and under this cache, a favourite stomping ground of my youth. TFTC.

Found it on the way home from an extended long weekend camping.
TFTC.

Found this one, whilst exploring the caves/camping nearby (..ish), with scouts (I see a growing trend here..)

Errgh blackberries!
Errgh prickles!!
(I think that sums up alot)

Like others, my GPS was insistent that GZ was down that hole. Hmm nah.
But after a short search, i found the goods

Took us a little while to find this cache. The GPS had us looking down the big hole... but then we spotted it elsewhere. Love this place; so cool. Swaped Horse toy for a sticky hand toy TFTC

Nice spot out here, must come back for some camping, caving etc. blackberries look like they're starting to take over around GZ though some have been sprayed. grabbed "Otto". TFTC

Interesting spot. Out on a Wee Jasper run with Agent Basil and Batgirl & Co. This one slowed us down a little, as we weren't entirely sure how big a one litre container was. Fortunately, I was able to locate the cache which clarified that issue. Unfortunately, I didn't communicate my find very clearly to the rest of the team and so while I was filling in the logbook, they were still hunting for the cache. Oops, sorry about that guys!

Found...well no...I didn't but dopplefrog did. No doubt I would have eventually. AB and I had been a little confused over the listing as 'small 1L container' and thinking 1lt milk is not really small. During this conjecture Dopplefrog holds up a sistema box and says, "This is a 1L container guys". Right, point of reference now gained (or so we thought) we continue to search for something that size whilst he is merrily logging away. A minute or so pass by before we realise it wasn't his morning tea in the box...he'd actually found the cache. D'oh! [:o)] [:o)] [:o)]

Hmmmmmm, nice cache, nice location. Hmmmmmm, 2 of the 3 of us have decided to never let the third forget about the slight ambiguity of the size of a 1 litre Sistema and whether it included his morning tea! How's that "1 Litre" ???? All good, and off to Campground for proper morning tea!

Heading home from a weekend of camping we just had to stop and check out the area around this cache and the caves. Miss Stormcatcher has been in the area as a youth on a school camp and it was a bit of a walk down memory lane. Lots of very interesting cavities and caves scattered over the hill (and blackberrie bushes ..ouch) We reached GZ and found the cache, a deep looking sink hole nearby was very cool. Would love to come back here to go caving and exploring ( we also checked out the new cache at the Devils Punchbowl that has yet to be found but obviously didn't have the gear or the knowledge to get it, but still very cool location ) . TFTC

Well, forgot to log this one after a great weekend out at Wee Jasper. Was out there with scouts caving and abseiling, and also placed a cache up at Devils Punchbowl.

This was a great find after we camped on the previous night. It could be a while before we return, so many camping places to choose from. TFTC.

Found on a caching and camping weekend in Wee Jasper with Fraggle_Rock, Wasptor and Leechie.

Had a great lot of fun on this camping trip with the Leechies and Kirbstars another great cache! TFTC!!!

Great caves in the area We went in one, and will definitely be back another time to explore a bit more without the kids! TFTC

Found this one with Kirbstars, Wasptor and Family on our weekend Camping Trip (2 of 7 for trip)

I hiked in an out of Fitzpatrick's Trackhead numerous times as a teenager, and visited the nearby caves several times too. The Geohusband was a more enthusiastic and frequent visitor than I was - even digging through sand to get into a blocked off chamber of Dog's Leg cave (just before the style) with his mates several years ago.

Found it eventually, after a bit of scrambling, GZ had us looking down a hole.
Picked up Elvis the TB - very cool.

11:07am
After nearly being run off the road on the last stretch coming down to this area by someone doing way over the speed limit for that single lane winding road, we arrived here to find we had the place to ourselves.

A quick walk and a leap over the fence and we arrived at GZ, a bit of a pad has been worn to this general area. After my son jumped down a bit of a step, rolled on his ankle and then into blackberries, we found the cache.

The first cave we came to, well, the only cave we came to, sounded like it had a river running through it. Is there a good website that describes the various caves here and their locations? Would love to get a url.

No writing stick in the cache, had to go back to the car for one.

Cheers

Had a poke around for 10 minutes or so, carefully avoiding the hole that appeared to go a very very long way down. Too many prickly bushes in the vicinity for me and I ended up empty handed. Oh well.

We have been here many times...

Quite a few kids going caving in the area. Perhaps the scouts? Got here as it was getting dark so will need to come back next time for some caving ourselves.

After going back for the torch we returned to eventually find the cache! TFTC

T: TB's

Found on a wet damp day. Dropped off two Travel Bugs. TFTC

Prickly.

Let little muggle babies of a friend take some small items in order to drag reluctant Dad into the fold. Had no replacements on me. Apologies.

Kids and dog got all caught up but we managed to get down unscathed.

No caving action this day.

Muggle Dad liked the area.
