Temporarily disabled due to maintenance, which is fair enough as no longer has a lid. But is still there. Shame as is a great spot for a decent sized cache.

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

----------

I've noticed this cache is carrying a maintenance log which really does need to be addressed by the cache owner.

The guidelines indicated that regular 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) 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 10th August,** 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 10th August). 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 it is likely that I will unfortunately have to Archive it 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 instructions posted above.

Walked around to the boardwalk first to take in the views. The wetlands were a little ... erm... drained? There wasn't much water around.

Went back to GZ and found the cache quite easily. As already stated, no lid so we were expecting a couple of guardians. We weren't disappointed with a frog and a huntsmen making the cache their home. Be aware for the kiddies!

Dropped off a TB. TFTC!
 
28-Dec-17
A shame there was no lid on this cache. Some stuff had blown out and was lying on the ground. Replaced as best I could. On an upside I found my first ever frog gaurdian. Not surprising for the area I guess but pretty cool!!
 
25-Dec-17
Tftc. This was a tricky one.
 
08-Dec-17
That's a good one! Found it in my own but will definitely have to come back with my son as he'll like this one

Rode the mountain bikes around the bike trails around Mt Barker, grabbing caches along the way. Great trails in a lovely area - enjoyed the ride around the wetlands - plenty of birdlife. Found and signed log.
 
27-Aug-17
I left a number of trackables in this cache on 2nd July during a nearby event, as I knew I wouldn't be able to move much further. There appears to be quite a few not logged out yet, I have contacted the following 3 finders to check on their whereabouts. Thankyou to the cacher who took and logged the last two.

 
13-Aug-17
Good one!

02-Jul-17
Was close by at a Geo event, and decided to wander as one does in this game, The find was easy enough, but seems to be lacing a logbook/sheet, so I have added a few pages from my notebook.

A new logbook should be added sooner than later ... or a future cacher can bring one to pop in, I would have if I had known it needed one. Cache is otherwise in fair condition.
 
02-Jul-17
Was at a nearby event and found this after a short walk in a nice area I haven't been to before.
Had read logs and came prepared with a new log to leave.
Thanks for the cache The Sensationals

Needs urgent maintenance
 
07-Aug-16
The cache is in a great hiding place, but, with no lid, the contents were swimming in water. I drained the container but the logbook was in no condition to sign it. I put a plastic bag over the container but really it needs a proper lid and a new logbook.
TFTC
 
19-Jun-16
Please note this cache is in need of maintenance. It has lost it's lid and is quite water damaged.

My last find for the day before heading down the freeway and going home.

Out for a caching day trip with CPwanderer, Clare007 and Locus Cache with the aim of today being to collect a few caches from southern Adelaide including Tangari Regional Park....man oh man some of the finds today had us really earning the smileys given the steep and difficult terrain.

There was a lot of laughter [^], a few swear words Surprised, some huffing and puffing up the hills [xx(] (and bound to be some sore muscles tomorrow), LOADS of silly chatter which made us all giggle [:o)].....poor CP, lots of girl talk today! SurprisedWinkBig Grin
