Hi cheekykea5

This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit and after my previous reviewer note, there has been no owner response. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.

Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.

Please note, that if a cache is archived due to lack of owner maintenance, the cache is unable to be unarchived.

Regards
TheCoddiwompler

Time to head back to Clyde, where we are staying, so took the scenic route. A wee detour through some interesting country side to this cache.
The co-ords are a bit out, but the cache page told me where to look (while SW hunted for his mislaid clip on sunglasses - found in his jacket after just about turning the car inside out). A quick find. TFTC.

I went up this road on the back road through to Clyde, it was a straight forward find so was quickly signed and I added the Happy Easter coin there that I had found earlier in the week at lawrence. For the pirate challenge. I was a long way from falling in luckily..
Thank you for this cache and another happy face.

Biked the river trail (picturesque in autumn colours) from Clyde to Alexandra, then back along the rail trail from Alex to Clyde. After returning our hired bikes in Clyde, jumped back in the car to do a few caches in what was left of the day. This was one of them. Took longer than it should have to find as we were concentrating on rocks rather than stones! #1172. TFTC.

Having spent the early part of the afternoon drinking Corona and zipping down a home made water slide I found my knee was a bit banged up. As a result I went for the closest cache I could drive right to. This one was 1.18km from our friends house. A nice quick find in a spot I could just get to. Hoping it heals fast so I can get more caching done!
TFTC Cool
