Unfortunately there does not seem to be any evidence that indicates that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement. It would appear the owner of this cache listing is no longer interested in the cache and the cache has been abandoned.

As such the cache is being de-listed (Archived). If there are components or remnants of the cache, please recover them as we don't want to litter our environment with Georubbish.

If you wish to contact me regarding this cache, 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**###

----------

Hi there Cache Owner,

This cache has come to my notice as there is a 'Needs Maintenance' log that that indicates there is some sort of issue with the placement and it needs your attention please.

Check out the Guidelines here: [**cache owners responsibilities.**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance) If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to [**Disable the cache**](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) within 14 days,** 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:

- Check on the cache, repair and/or replace the cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked 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 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 (within 14 days). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. For ongoing issues (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to speed.

- If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**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.

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) 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 information/advice posted above.

Even though there were a number of DNF’s before us, we thought we would give it a try anyway. We didn’t find a cache, but we did find an echidna who was burrowed down in the dead tree and very cosy. Looks like this one has gone walkabout some years ago. Looked for quite some time but no cache was uncovered.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Even though it looked like it was missing from the previous logs, I went for a hunt. Found what the clue referred to, but no cache. I'm sure it's gone astray.

Was in the area and decided to have a look. Like the previous two posts, found the hide but the cache was nowhere to be found

We'd noted Perpetuallylost's DNF, but decided to have a quick look anyway. The place described in the hint was easily identified and unmistakable, but we couldn't find the cache either. Our thanks anyway to Blacklegend.

Muggled. No container to be found anywhere fitting the hint. Sorry.

Found it

Nice stroll into the bush and went straight to it.
Thanks for the day's enjoyment.

Tfth

[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

I like it

Another one of the list

Found with josh obtain. Tftc

Quick easy find. My last find in Victoria for awhile i am on my way to Queensland

A nice view of the river from this vantage point
Completely muggle free this morning [^]

So I soon tracked down the cache hide

Not sure why you would want to camp here though !!??
Yes there is a great beach on the Murray, but the Newell Highway just a few hundred metres away means this is an all day, all night, pit of noise

TFTC

Brilliant hide & beautiful scenery!

Great cache lots of fun adds to camping trip. Heading north for some sun. TFTC

Travelling around Australia in our Caravan with our cat.

Making our way south to Melbourne now, it's amazing seeing all the other travellers heading north! Are we heading the wrong way

After establishing camp at Apex Beach we headed out to see what this side of the border had to offer! Grabbed a few smilies and checked out some alternative camp spots.

Maybe 15 campers at this site today alone. Can't imagine how busy it gets in Summer.

TFTC and feeding our Geocaching addiction Blacklegend

Campers informed us of local wildlife movement. Luckily never saw them

Beware of legless lizards TFTC

This is one of the caches we found while out on another glorious day amongst the magnificent ancient, River Reds - our last in the area for a little while. We have definitely bookmarked this border area for a return visit, sooner rather than later. Well . . . . . . as we proceeded to access this cache it slide down, and down out of reach. Reaching equipment was fetched but H-P was able to maneuver into a position to grab the cache by hand.

Our thanks to Blacklegend for bringing us here.

Camped at Finley, and headed out to pick up a few caches in the area.

This is a great spot, and there were many campers along the river.
Cache was out of their view, and found quickly.
Many thanks for placing this cache, Blacklegend, for us and others to find.

Murray July 2014. A long weekend trip down to the Murray to explore and get some great caching dome. I was able to visit some great spots and get some very interesting caches on this trip. Thanks.

Our 1st Victorian cache! Lots of campers here relaxing and enjoying the beautiful location. We stopped for lunch and had a million dollar view. TFTC Blacklegend.

Found @ 12:52pm, find # 3088.
A quick caching run from Numurkah to Tocumwal and then back to Melbourne, this one was on the way.
A short excursion off the main road down to the river side. I was surprised to see so many caravans and tents around here, I thought that I was going to have a problem getting this one, but when I arrived at where I was to park the car, there wasn't really anyone around so I headed over to GZ and was able to make a quick find.
Took TB and I was on my way.
Thanks to blacklegend17 for placing this cache.

Lots of campers nearby today so we disguised ourself in river watches as we dashed to grab the cache, quickly signed the log and returned TFTC

Found this One with Tamzy and paddyjak TFTC

Found with Tamzy and HolzCotz, lots of people around enjoying the beautiful river and the sunshine so we had to be careful and time our moves just right TFTC

Stopped here for the last night on our 3 month tour through parts of Australia. Not too many campers, though the trail bike riders made more noise than we would have liked. Took nothing, signed log, left TB. TFTC.

good one - gotta be tall to spot it. tftc

A view and a cache, thankyou.

Thanks blacklegend17 for your cache.

Another cache found by "the england's" on the Big Red or Bust tour. July 2013.

Cache found at 4:29 PM on 12/07/13. Cache number 567.

This was our 1st cache find in the caching run & we found it at 10:29
So this now makes our total find count 6256.
[blue]
We are camping at a different spot along the Murray River and thought that today would be a great opportunity to tour some of the other camp sites and caches the area has to offer.
Yes there's a nice view of the river, but all the rubbish left behind after the Anzac Weekend isn't so pleasant.
[/blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: Excellent (Under 2 metres)
Cache Condition: Container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Lanyard
Thanks Blacklegend for the hunt today.

It's been a while since we've had a day out caching, but with studies completed, today is the day. Making a trip to Tocumwal to clear a few caches off our list.
Greg recovering from a sprained ankle, so most finding left up to me, especially on the rough ground.

TFTC SL

We chose to do caching around Tocumwal today.
We found some very interesting sights, the blowhole, old airfield, creeks & of course the mighty Murray .
Some very interesting tracks along the river

TFTC Blacklegend

Found cache while on a camping holiday with Port63.
Easy find. Took TB. Will take good care of it.
Thanks for the cache.
Happy Australia Day

Camping with the Bloody Tourists we set of to find this one but with so many Views of the river I almost forgot the cache but it was soon in hand the the log was signed TFTC TNLNSL

I am discovering lots of great beaches and campsites near Tocumwal along the river. Lots of others already know this as there are caravaners galore populating every beach i found today. Left TB. TFTC

Container replaced. Good to go.

# 1925. Caching today on a Cobram-Tocumwal run with Robmc and chewinprickles. It was nice to see the wide expanse of the river. Rob soon had this one to hand. One end of the container was broken and missing but surprisingly the log was dry in its bag. TFTC BL

Spent today caching the North East with Bettyboo3747 and Chewinprickles.
Bit of slipping and sliding out along the road today, but not enough to need 4WD.
A few campers already set up and lounging around in the sun - nice work if you can get it!
The cache container is missing its end, but the contents are still fine.
Thanks, Robmc.

Found at 10:39 AM GAFF1 with perfect co-ords. Had to go into 4wd as the tracks were a bit slippery. All around we could see where the water had risen to.
Thanks Blacklegend

the container is very brittle and broken needs to be replaced

we know this river very well by now we have been back and forth across it a lot today. great camping spots along here tftc

about 5 vans parked on the beach today, what a great spot Thanks for showing us this spot

Sorry Adam did not have a spare container today, the side is out of the cache

#619 on day 175 of continuous caching after a small day yesterday this was set to be a bigger day after going to Yarrawonga MacDonald and finding their WiFi to be a little lacking I asked one of the employees there and he told me about a Laundromat that had a WiFi hot spot so off i went and collected a few more geocaches for the gps and started to work my way toward the days goal of at least 50 and yes I got there and added 1 for good measure.

21 of 51 for the day and this was my biggest day yet. This was a lucky arrival as the place was packed with vans today and it being rather early in the morning it was hard to be stealthy but I approached GZ from a suitable distance and the natural geography provided the necessary cover to make the reason for my appearance at the location less obvious. The log was signed and the cache returned to it location. This one will need a little attention the container is rather brittle.

Thanks Blacklegend for one more in the list.

There are lots of nice beaches here in Tocumwal, thanks for bringing us across to this side, we are camped on the other side for a few days. TFTC

A nice walk thru the bush.
The place is beautiful and found once the gps settled down.
Picked up a tb.
Tftc.
Dog-gone

Yippee!! Been meaning to get this one for awhile now, but water and boggy track has stopped me. Got this morning on the way to the Mulwala Country and Western Festival ... thanks Blacklegend

Had a great day Caching with Geokid Emily and Cachound Chester. found 18 for the day.
Thanks for the interesting and historical information for locations around Toc and Finley.

We'll be back.

Excellent hide. TFTC.

The view of the river had a toilet placed nearby which was strange.
The Walenators and Earthbound Chief teams soon located the stash and we all signed together.

Another nice spot which would be popular in the summer.
Thanks to Blacklegend.

A "What The..." moment. A toilet sitting on a beach in the middle of nowhere!! Hmmm. I think the Chief thought the cache was going to be a 'flash in the pan'...Oh dear!

There was a porcelain throne right there on the beach. A bit public!

Found in the company of the lovely fiance, walenators, the Earthbound crew, and The Farmers 5 teams.
Great views of the river if one was to 'sit and think' on the porclian throne sitting nearby.
Bizarre that it has plumbing!
There were few people camping with their converted buses nearby.
Thanks again Blacklegend!

TFTC, almost ran into a very large 8 legged guardian, but managed to avoid it. Cache found quickly, on a lovely river beach with lots of campers

Found with the Farmers 5, Earthbound Control and Princess Dalia. After a short search we had the cache in hand. Thanks Blacklegend. TFTH...SL...TNLN

At first we thought the "view" of the river was going to be from a fabulous porcelain cache container! Fail! The posse found the cache and we were on our way. TFTC

Found with meagaan nice hide TFTC

Found with muggle bf Brad.. Left small tape measure and took doll. TFTC

Got to within 200 metres of GZ and our lovely view of the river had come to meet us. Rising river gives us a DNF for today.

We love this spot, come here every year but this is the first time as "Geocachers". Our GPS was within 1m of the co-ords given. Fantastic to see the river so high, although there is one koala stranded in a tree but won't be long before he can come to ground again. TFTC

Great spot by the side of the river. Nice quick easy find once my gps stopped being flaky. Should come back here for a bit of a fish sometime when im not caching..
Thanks Blacklegend17 for this great cache.
Cheers

Tide was up here in the not too distant past.. luckily this one is outa reach.. TFTC onward bound C@H and MrJibblets head.. Find #578

Grabbed while out with Mr Jibblets and Spladem on our weekend away for the 'Yarrawonga Meet,Greet and Eat'. TFTC

Right to go. Survived the floods and was high enough not to get wet. Cheers.

Temporarily offline due to the flooding Murray River. It will be back.....

This cache site really shows just how much rain we have had and just how beautiful and mighty this river is. Easy find SL TNLN T4TC

Thanks Blacklegend top spot, nice part of the world you live in.
TNLN SL Cheers

#509 @ 3.00pm. On our fab caching day out with team Haveanez. We had to come here as our Adelaide caching mates are the owners of the TB that was in this cache - it was too close to home not to pick it up - thank goodness no one had come along and picked it up since yesterday . There were quite a few people camping here at this location - obviously a very popular spot at all times of the year & I can understand why....now if only people learnt how to go to the loo in the bush correctly we'd "all be happy campers!".

Took: Gecko TB - & a photo opportunity was seized
Left: 1000 finds GC

TFTC - really liked this area in spite of the loo paper

Found on our super day out with Skullracer1!
Hadn't been to this spot before, but definately will be back with the camper!
A few campers close by, but with the nicely placed 4wd's a nice cover was made for a quick find!

Many thanks to blacklegend17 for another top location.

Found while out caching with my mentor Obi Wan Blacklegend17. TFTC!

** Coordinates Changed From **
S 35° 49.350 E 145° 33.517
Distance From Old: 43.5 feet or 13.3 meters.
Coordinates changed to S35 49.357 E145 33.515 as per another cacher's readings. Wasn't aware it was that far out. Should be all good now. Cheers and thanks

A very serene spot by the river, first thing in the morning. Found the coords were out by quite a bit as stated in the description, took some new ones that should be accurate: S35 49.357 E145 33.515. Dropped off a TB. TFTC.

found this one in the dark at 6pm with the help of Desserttsunami, clues helped alot.

Another cache i missed in the area last year i was more then glad to get off the list, fortunatley there were no camper's to hinder our search today.
Thanks for the cache Blacklegend17
TNLN SL

Found with Mr Jibblets after we found the right track to go in on. Thank god for the 4x4 not the would of helped with road tyers on it.
But got there in the end. Great little spot. Weather kept all the muggles away.

Nice place for a bike ride! Few campers around, but no trouble.
Thanks

One of several lovely spots on the river that caching took me to today. There were a handful of campers still here at the end of the long w/e, but none too near the cache.

Yet another lovely spot on the Murray thanks again BlackLegend

Found and logged at 9:35, On my way to Echuca for the Anzac Day Event

Indeed it is a beautiful beach, like so many around the Murray here (we were camped at Carters Beach, Ulupna). And, yes, indeed, the pen was leaking so we replaced it with one from the Oz Mega showbag, which seemed appropriate somehow, otherwise TNLNSL Thank you, blacklegend, for bringing us here.

Muggle campers abound.. They were just opening the beers and taking shelter from the few spots of rain above. I looked for the metal which was a good hint. Our thanx again to the blacklegend from TeamAstro...... Sort of wished I'd been camping here tonight. But we cached on

Found with tofka,ADV,Redinguana and Moneydork.TFTC.

Lots of people camping here which was hardly surprising, it's a nice place.
TFTC

The cache has a leaking pen (which covered me in ink).
One of many finds on our Wagga Wagga MEGA trip (from NZ). TFTC.

Coords seemed a wee way out for us. Just enough shelter from camping muggles to not be a problem. Cheers Gav [5418]

Our GZ about 20m out. Mugglemania on last day of Easter holiday. T4TC, M@

Lots of muggles around enjoying the long Easter weekend at the river. Would make a lovely camping spot in quieter times.
NINO, TFTC

Found easily, even with LOTS of muggles around.

TNLN

One day we will be there for camping as lovely place.. Thanks for show me to see this place.. Found it TFTC

1135 Found by baby&Mrs gopher at 1035.A quick easy find with the muggles showing no interest after the NEW YEAR celebrations last evening.Took TB and visited a coin.Tnx blacklegend17

Oh! here I am.

We did not find this one because the river was wall to wall campers and by our calculation ground zero would have been in someone's portable toilet!!
Maybe we will go back in off-peak time.

Found by djcache on a detour from a trip into town for ice.

Two locations with the metalic substance mentioned in the hint. One is more correct than the other though.

Coords out by at least 12-15 metres so go by the description or the coords attached to this log.

I like our sand bar much better. We're the only ones camped on it. This place & the spot over the river get more like suburbia every year.

DJ

Found by djcache on my annual trip to Tocumwal for cod opening. Coords less than helpful, glad of the hint even though two trees had bits of the hint lying around.

You don't need a new GPS to manually average waypoints. If you're not sure how to, message me (though I won't answer for a few days) or ask another cacher how to do it.

Thanks for the cache.

New coords attached.

dj

Not many muggles. Although the ones here must think that it is typical that women go off to do their business together even in the bush . Left travel bug dice. Tn.sl Cheers

lucky place

To many campsites around to try today, will have to go on my to do list
