##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

There's been no response from the CO in the past month. This cache is in desperate need of maintenance. Please see my uploaded photo on my NM log. Perhaps it has been abandoned?
Time to bring it to the attention of a Reviewer to determine its future.

Hi

#4781
What a great view from up here. There are issues with this cache but I did sign the log.

This cache is in desperate need of a maintenance visit by the CO. The glass container was broken and presented a danger so I have disposed of that. The log has been damp in the past but was dry enough today for me to sign. I've left the log and pen in situ but these are open to the elements. Hopefully, the CO will perform the necessary maintenance to keep this cache alive.

Needs attention please

Badly in need of maintenance.

Lovely view. Found by geokid

Almost drove past this one but it was worth the effort to find GZ. The container is broken and the log is extremely wet - I was lucky to find a semi-dry spot to sign it. TFTC

A quick find with an easy hint. Cache is smashed and pages are damp. Desperately needs attention. I didn’t have a container to swap it out with.

Great view as we head out of town. Another spot / location we wouldn’t have seen if not for there being a geocache here - thank you for bringing us here.

Quick find after checking out the view over Kandos. TFTC

A cache much more to my liking, away from muggle eyes. Certainly not a micro. Great views.

A lovely lookout !

Tftc

Found on a day when the sun came out! A very easy find.

Tftc smellyboot, great view from this lookout.

Thanks for the cache

Great view of kandos

Beautiful view

Good hidding place loved the view...

Thank you was a fun find.

We stopped here and made coffee and ate a muffin admiring the view.

TFTC.

I am sure we have been here before but time no problems finding the cache. Not sure about the glass - maybe a future cacher could exchange it for a more appropriate material? TFTC

Second (or third) time we have been up here but this time we found it. Great spot for morning tea and fabulous views. Thanks Smelly Boot.

Nice and easy find. Thank you.

TFTC.

Taking a couple of days off and collecting a few caches along the way. relatively quick find at GZ. With the cache in hand we signed the log before replacing as found. Both the log and cache container are in average condition. Found with JJCC, thanks for the cache Smelly Boot.

The following TBs came through for the mileage : Bob geoMinion, Dave geoMinion, Evil geoMinion, Jerry geoMinion, Larry geoMinion, Mary Hyde's Treasure, Stuart geoMinion, teamMerlin's 7 Deadly Ducks Tag (Lust), Vanlith The Youngling, Hidden Creatures Geocoin TB, teamMerlin's Football, Daltus-Dachzeltbus39

Nice hide!

Nice hide

Lived in Rylstone for 4 years, didn’t even know there was a lookout picnic spot here. Has a fire place and bin. Great view of Kandos and the cement works. And some very stunning grass tress to see from the cache point. With HudsonDesign who took the photo for us other 4 Hudson’s.

Found

Great view

Found!

Found at 11:42:00 AM

I was actually surprised when I got up here to find it's actually a lookout. That'll teach me for not reading the description. Any idea what that yellow structure down on the main road is?

Thanks Smelly Boot

Found with ease. Nice views TFTC

Headed north for a caching weekend away with fitzy_1965 & GLISS!

Quick find here today.

19,300. Found during a weekend caching meander with minniek and GLISS!, and an awesome time was had.

After packing up camp we headed back to where we got to yesterday to continue through our list of must do caches. This was the next one. Quick find by minniek. Signed the log, replaced the cache, then headed off to the next one.

Thanks Smelly Boot !!

A great way to spend a weekend - a trip away with minniek & Fitzy_1965 - yay! A quick find by minniek. TFTC.

We stopped at the lookout to take in the view of the cement works and I took the opportunity to grab the cache.

Great spot, thanks Smelly Boot.

TFTC.

Stopped by on the way back home after a weekend at Dunns Swamp.

Cheers

Quick stop and grab. TFTC

I missed the turn for this lookout as there is no sign, but soon turned around and found where to park near GZ. A short walk later I held the cache and logged. Thanks Smelly Boot for bringing us here.

Easy find on a rainy day. Lot bigger than I expected. Tftc

Thanks for the cache

Only just started this today and found first one awesome fun.

Nice raining day for nice little find.

We are spending time at one of my favourite locations Dunns Swamp We managed to do a few caches along the way with the caravan on before getting to our targetted location. Even though it is school holidays we found a nice camping spot. I enjoyed cooling off in the beautiful water while Bruce went to do the 2 au caches we needed to get the coords for the other cache published. Must admit he looked rather shattered after he had been hiking in 38 degree heat. Thanks to Smelly Boot for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.

Found with cullum68 (mr grumbles) on our way back to goulburn thanks for the cache

Headed up with nissan 65 for another few days caching. Today we are heading back towards bathurst and Goulburn Thanks for the cache.

30/9/17. 12:50 PM. Cache #5322.
9th of 23 finds (& 1 DNF) today.

Day 1 of the long weekend and I came up to plunder caches in the Mid West Regional council. First leg of the day, coming up from Sydney, I cleared as much as I could from this corner - Running Stream, Ilford, Cudgegong, Aarons Pass, Clandulla, Kandos, Rylstone, Dabee and Carwell.

After my DNF at "Willies Cache" (and a decision to skip "The Track with a View"), this one was next in my sights. Thanks to the hint, it was an easy find, and good to be back in the smilies again. Thankfully, no sign of the cache guardian mentioned by the previous finder, and I was being wary. OK, time to get "Cemented in Kandos" next. TFTC.

The big huntsman spider on guard was a bit of a surprise.

Nice quick, good spot to stretch legs for my drive from Lithgow to Muswellbrook tftc

Easy find and a great view of the town. Thanks for bringing us here.

Found quite easily in a good location. TFTC Smelly Boot

Out around the Sofala / Ilford area this afternoon for a few caches. Quick find. TFTC

Nice view of the old town! TFTC! : )

Easy find on trip from Bathurst to the coast today. I got the relevance of the name, enjoyed the spectacular view and grabbed the cache! TFTC Smelly Boot, I would never have discovered this great vantage point if you hadn't brought me here!

This was certainly a nice easy cache to find as it was right where it should be. Signing the log was the next thing to do and the cache was then put back back in its proper place. After that we were soon on our way. Thank you Smelly Boot for placing this cache and for bring us to this area.

We discovered all those many a couple of days ago.

We have solved all the interesting mysteries before we started our trip to the Mid Western Region of NSW.

Day 1

We started the day in Meadow Flat, followed by Sunny Corner and Dark Corner past Palmers Oakley.
We loved the hilly nature along many peaceful Gravel roads. Many smilies were forming on our map.
We finished the day in Bathurst.

Day 2

We started all fresh again in the morning. Leaving Bathurst, we were able to get going about faster along the sealed road.
We reached Sofala at around lunch time. We couldn't believe that about 40,000 used to live here. It really seemed that the city stopped developing in around the 1850's..
We continued towards Hills End and Windeyer through dry grassy land in 47 degrees heat.
We spend such a beautiful night here in Windeyer in the caravan park. We booked one of the train accomodation where you got to stay in the train back in time. What a great experience. We really liked Windeyer as it seemed so far away from all the city rush. Te locals were very welcoming and were happy to see us in the pub next door for dinner.
What a great community living were it seems like everyone knows everyone.

Day 3

We left Windeyer after a big breakfast. We travelled along Hills End Road until we reached the turn towards another Gravel road. There wer many animals to watch and it got even hotter and hotter.
This day ended in Mudgee.

Day 4

We took a look at Mudgee city today were we searched for a couple of caches and ten continued towards Rylstone.
After we continued to the Wollemi National Park which a good friend recommended us to go. Here we climbed on the top of the mountain and simply enjoyed the stunning view and the tranquil nature.
After, we traveled towards Kandos, Capertee, Cullen Bullen, Portland and Wallerawang back home to Sydney.

We hereby would like to thank all owners for this great interesting tour. We got to see many historical places and sometimes felt like as if we were living back in the the 1850's, which is a good thing.

Thanks
Team sissifalke

TFTC Thank you for going to the effort of hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity.

...and it becomes patently clear why it is called Rotary. Nice views.

A nice lookout. It should be signposted. The road in was 200m closer to Kandos. TFTC

Found a while ago with j0shuajames, only just got an account!
Thanks!

Great view!!

another nice spot for views I wouldn't have found without caching, not signposted and road isn't exactly well maintained. type of container was a tad unexpected too but not particularly hard to find.

Our last cache for our road trip this weekend. This was a nice spot, with good views out over the area.

And the cache was a quick find.

Thanks

This was our last cache after a modest weekend of caching near Mudgee and beyond. We'd taken this route on our way home to pick up a few caches. We drove up this hill and made an easy find. Some nice views of the town from where we parked, too. Thanks

Stopping off on my way to a boys weekend at Bylong Creek. I just love the countryside around here - the green rolling hills and the cliffs in the distance are just spectacular! TFTC

We quite enjoyed this find!! Thanks

Such a great view from up here and I got to see it because of this cache. On wards and upwards to the mega. TFTH

I was following the Australian Solo Speedway Championship which was held over 4 meetings in Adelaide, Mildura, Undera and Kurri Kurri. To enhance my travels, I picked up some caches along the way. This was one of them. tftc.
Crusty.

We received a message from chippyroo to see if we wanted to travel for the day and grab caches somewhere we haven't been before, Today we found many caches and travel over 800kms for the day to do so. TFTC.

Found with Justjessie, TFTC.

Found with O319. TFTC

What a great lookout and an easy find to boot.

Lovely spot

Tftc, quickness was used.

After leaving Kandos I had this one set as my next find but missed the turn off!

A quick u-turn a little further up the road had me doubling back to the turnoff and a simple find.

Thanks Smelly Boot for the cache.

On the way to Gulgong via Kandos and Rylstone.
Nice and easy. TFTC.

After leaving Kandos township in our Nissan Patrol 4WD Mrs one-Eyed and I decided to have a go at this cache.
After missing the turn first off , decided to do a quick youee over double lines, then Mrs one- eyed spotted the small track, which was easier to enter coming towards Kandos heading east.
What a great view of the Kandos Valley, found the cache okay, took some great Panorama Photos , then back to the caravan to stitch the pics.
