As there has been no response to the last request/s to attend to this cache, or provide regular updates, the cache is being de-listed on the basis that it has been abandoned by the Cache Owner.

If there are components or remnants of the cache, please return to the GZ and collect the cache (or remnants). We don't want to litter our environment with Georubbish.

Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived.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

###**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 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) 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 6th 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 6th 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, it is likely that I will need 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.

Nice spot! Cache is in need of some maintenance though!

TFTC! Is in need of some maintenance though.

TFTC

Out & about on this warm afternoon grabbing caches...last one for the afternoon too...it was fun getting to this one...didn't come the easier way but took the pine track...fun...
A quickly located cache however is in need of a replacement as the sistema is brittle & cracked with some missing bits...placed back as found...
TFTC Beaker

Found it in pretty bad shape open with contents spread around, will need replacement. Tftc

We had to swap our days due to high fire danger risk.
No one here today, CP soon had cache in hand.
Thanks for the hide Beaker

Easy find with clare007 as we wandered about the back tracks!!!

Found while out looking for a bridge with Yellatori.
TFTC

Catching up on logs , found with relle77 .

Suscoe was enjoying another terrific day in Mount Gambier today.
We were heading towards the end of our time here and so today was a wander picking up a number of caches that we had left for today.
All up we found 27 caches today to the east, the north and around the lakes.
It was a windy day, sunshine from time to time and some high cloud.
There was also some smokey air from controlled burns as well.
An enjoyable drive in the XR6.
A quick find and sign.
Thanks to -Beaker- for a nice spot in the bush.

Another nice quick find !!

Tftc

We negotiated our way along teh tracks through the forest but we stopped when we were within 400m of this cache because the track became very sandy and was beyond the capability of our low clearance AWD. Mrs y'stassie walked the distance and came across a 4WD playground - they had certainly made a mess of the area. We were glad that we stopped when we did. Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks for the cache -Beakeer-.

found with goitsy

Geocaching day out

decided to do a spot of geocaching today.
started with this one.
walked over it a couple of times
was distracted by less than impressed geo baby.
lol didnt realise it was lunch time.
tftc beaker!

Found while taking the little one motorbike riding. Nice easy find Geodaughter took toy zebra and left a mickey mouse charm

Found

Just so happen to stop and read the 'clue' only to realise I happen to be dead standing on GZ. Saw a family of Roo's and an emu, great hide!

There is so much track, in SA, that it no longer used
TFTC

Found after reading the hint. TFTC D

Lookin a little sleepy will help find it

Found on the way back to camp in rennick forest after caching for a couple of hours.

Made all the harder by searching at night with only my ithingy for light as well as searching

My GPSr took me down the wrong road to this cache. The first road just inside SA is not for 2WD cars, my rental car was fish-tailing it and I was praying that I would not get stuck. This cache was not an easy find. I walked the length of the rail from the road to the trees without seeing a hint of it. When I walked back from the trees to the road I spotted something that turned out to be the cache. I hid it as well as when I found it so the next person will have a challenge also.

I flew into Melbourne on Sunday, rented a vehicle and am driving to Oz Mega in Murray Bridge. Of course I am trying to find some caches along the way.

Today, Tuesday, is is my second day of caching in Australia. This is my first caching trip south of the Equator, so I am finally getting some S's to go with all my N's. And this is my first caching trip east of the Prime Meridian, so I am finally getting some E's to go with all my W's. (My trips to Europe and Asia were before I took up geocaching.) Thanks for the cache. This cache is my find number eight (8) for the day, and find number nineteen thousand three hundred ninety four (19394) overall.

May all your days bring you more smiles than frowns . May your year 2014 be better than your year 2013 was.

Cache on!

What a great photo opportunity on the rail line.

Closer to our final destination

tftc

TFTC

Good find in the dark!

Geodad went out on the search for this one while Geomum had to keep the car moving because Geoson was grumpy.

After a quick search the cache was found, logbook signed and off to the next one.

Container was wet inside but the logbook is still dry.

A quick search and knowing some off Beakers past hides had this cache in hand..Loved the slippery roads out here!! Awesome!
Cheers for the cache

This one was good! One of my favourites so far! Forgot to bring a pen to write in the Log Book though, sorry

Tftc great hiding spot

Found on the third pass up and down the track. Thx Beaker for the hide.

Great hiding spot

I was headed back to camp for the arvo.
Another cache or two couldn't hurt though
Let's see what is along the way ...

Oh goody, a railway cache
I parked the geomobile on the crossing.
Fun to do !!
Of course one assumes that there will not be another train along for a day or two before leaving the geomobile in such a spot

I strolled the track.
But before I could get the cache notes to display on the 'dumb-phone' I spotted something out of the corner of me eye.
Well blow me down and cover me roses [:o]
A cache.... just like that
The cache wasn't exposed, it was just the camo that gave it away [^]

TFTC and detour to some rusty rails.

The loved the forest in here, with the trees all lined up with military precision. Also liked the hide - TFTC.

On my home from The Big Little Event in Nelson.... A caching I shall go....

More forest roads, interspersed by the rail line...
Nice hide, needed the hint....
TNLNSL
Thanks

Quick find

Grandy found it. Very excited young fella.
Quite a clever spot. Would'nt have found without
the hint. Well, eventually we would. Tftcsl,tnln.

Really sneaky hide. TFTC TNLN

Wandered around for 15 minutes, then read the hints. been walking over the hide several times. TFTC

Had to use the hint for this one. Took a deer, left a zebra. TFTC

A nice easy find while on a nice drive in the forest TFTC.

Found it on a day motorbike riding TFTC 3rd for the day

TFTC nice easy one on the way back home from caching at casterton last one for the day.

Great little hidy hole,

found it with wmf138 had a ball with all the little one

Had to pass this spot between jobs so caching in work hours. Always good. Tftc

Had help from the creator in finding this one. Thanks Beaker for the intro to geocaching. It was a really great way of exploring mt gambier. Tnln.

Found by Mary & David at 0900. Another big milestone for us - a kilocache in fact. For these special moments, we have always tried to use a memorable cache - no celebrations over a nano in an alley for us. We also try to choose a cache placed by someone we know well, and this one fitted the bill admirably. The clear scent of pine needles, the lonely call of a solitary crow, an occasional magpie chorus, sightings of long-legged boomers, and the flash of colour from a scarlet Rosella all added to the atmosphere here. We also enjoyed the ever changing palette of greens and browns of the pines, the blackwoods, the ferns and bracken. Mt Gambier will always be a special place for Mary with so many family connections. However, we didn't try to emulate Possum Bourne, but rather took our time to enjoy the landscape. Our thanks to Beakers Bunch.

Easy drive by

Nice easy find.

Found on a gorgeous day. Taken 2x tb's left two marble. Tftc.

When we were planning our trip to Mt Gambier a few months ago, I spied this cache on the map, and suggested we go here. Once we actually got to Gambier, I had totally forgotten about it until I spied it on the Nuvi as we were heading out for the day. TURN LEFT HERE was the instuction to Nowhere2Bseen and off we went through the pine forest. Finding the railway out here was a little surreal... but out we hopped and found the cache quite easily. Signed the log and carefully replaced. The railway certainly has been reclaimed by the forest.... pine trees growing straight up between the sleepers.
TFTC and bringing us out to the place.

I hear from the passenger seat of the Geo-Ute "Turn left here". Needing no further encouragement to get off that terrible blacktop and onto some really nice gravel roads we navigated our way to the cache. Suddenly a railway line complete with ballast of bluestone and "pudding" stone (the stuff that looks like an aero bar made of rock). Sniffing around a bit I managed to find the location of the hidden container. Along with it is a belt clip which belongs to JGC3. I left it there because that is what the note said to do.
The railway line hasn't been used for a bit either... There are a couple of trees growing through the tracks now...
TFTC

cool nice one 2
2:15pm

Such a pretty area, great hide spot. Took: Eyeball, Left: Reindeer. TFTC.

TNLN TFTC

Nice easy one tnln TFTC

TFTC This was our 3/10 cache for today. We literally parked right over top of this one in our 4x4 to have geo hubby step out right on top of it. We took a crusty hair tie and left a Marlin.

Found this one as we headed back to Melbourne. What a beautiful spot. Wish we had more time to explore in that area. Next time. tftc, tnln.

Awesome spot. Like these finds. Train would certainly have a hard time now. TFTC SL.

Muggle Ronnie was the finder, out for the day with Hannah & PT

Once again found by muggle ronnie, we have to try harder

A nice easy find in the middle of the forest. TFTH...SL...TNLN

A quick stop here on a mornings drive through the forest. I had a few heart in moth moments driving south along the border track when the surface changed to sand. (I've got myself stuck a couple of times while driving on sandy tracks.)

While retrieving the cache I thought that I heard a train whistle - turns out it was cockatoo.

Thanks for the cache Beakers Bunch.

Great side trip. Love to make this a cycling rail trail, but the vegetation has really taken over.

Another great hide beakers, sorry for the late logging. A very interesting drive in here, fill in half a day nicely.

second log attempt I lost my first one due to a human malfunction aughhhhhhhhhh that is so frustrating after writing an elabrit story.
Short version is we heard peacocks everywhere in the forrest a bit eary even as the sun was now hiding behind the trees.
Beaut spot and we would love to be here during a rally it would be awesome! TFTC TNLN SL

out and about with the rhyan clan and team scallywag for an afternoon of caching.

Took geokids out for an afternoon bike ride, but great idea for hide also. TFTC

Found In the company of Mooshell. TFTC.

Good hide. Quick and easy find. TFTC, TNLN

Loved the strategically placed Xmas tree (pic). Also the strategically placed cache. Lots of strategies here.
Are they going to rip up the track, or let it rust some more[?] Clear skies and our thanx once again to Beaker [^]

My first find for the day and what a beauti.
Drove in from the border signs which was more fun than the solid way I took back out.
Great hide. Love your work

Drove straight to this cache from Phone. A short but interesting drive. If a tree falls in the forest does a cacher hear it?

Quick stop her. You have to be lucky some times!
Nice little spot for a cache
Cheers, TNLNSL.

Spotted this one took slimy snake Left Kellogs pedentiometer
