Logs
I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, CatWomanAU, requesting additional time.
An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.
Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

###Cache Maintenance Visit Required please.###
This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache.
I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it checked by the Cache Owner.
The cache owner needs to:
* Investigate the situation and either restore the cache, or address any other issues, such as correcting the D/T rating if necessary.
* Re-enable the cache by posting an Enable log
* Post an Owner Maintenance log to advise what has been done, and to clear any Needs Maintenance attribute which is present.
Otherwise :
* Post a Note Log to request more time if necessary, or provide other information..
**Do not use an Owner Maintenance log for this, that is for use only **when you actually do something to repair the cache**.
Alternatively:
* Archive the cache, and remove any remaining geo-litter from the site.
In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page to await owner action by CatWomanAU and to take it off the playing board to prevent further geocaching community inconvenience.
[Please see the maintenance section of the Geocache Hiding Guidelines.](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance)
**I will check back in 30 days** to be see that action has been by the CO.
If nothing has happened, I will assume that the cache has been abandoned and, unfortunately, I will need to Archive this cache.
*Caches archived because of lack of maintenance/abandonment will not be unarchived.*
The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is there, and in good condition, waiting to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.
Please see [my profile page](https://www.geocaching.com/p/default.aspx?u=Balayang) for additional information.
Thank you

Couldnt find this one. I found the item mentioned in the hint and, with great trepidation given the snakey weather, I navigated throught the long grass to get to it. Despite moving it as much as much as possible to search around it (and avoiding blackberries), I couldn't spot the cache. I wasn't prepared to extend my search any further into serpent territory - so it may be that I missed other possibilities
Having been tasked with providing transport for my CotE (not a cacher) to get to her regular Tuesday commitment, and having gained all but two of the "Wonders of the World" for my "passport", here was my opportunity to compete the set. Just one more... Thanks for this one Catwoman, I left my calling card.
Thanks for the cache CatWomanAU.
In Launceston for the weekend with RLD4963. We had run out of daylight but still had some time before heading out for dinner. We decided to search for this one as it was close to the highway and so we had enough light. Once again, we had to wait or some dog-walking muggles to pass and then we made a quick find. Thanks for adding to the caches in the area.

out and about caching with 1 Rafa today, an easy find with clues TFTC TNLN log dry.
After a trip to Devonport today it was back to Launceston for a work Xmas dinner and I had just a couple of hours to wait around. What a bonus, time to do some caching. I concentrated on mainly roadside or city caches and this one could be seen from the trail. It had slipped down the bank so after logging I slipped it back under where the hint said it should be. All good with the cache thanks CatWomanAU, nice little spot here.
Contents are wet but log book is dry, emptied the water out and put a lady bug in

Found with Mtrax on our mini holiday in Tassie! Now in Launceston - before heading back to Hobart tomorrow. A nice cache here. - thanks cwau.
Found it but didn’t sign log book. Will come back with something nice a dry to replace it
It was our last day in Launceston and we had a few hours to kill before we had to head off to the airport. We decided to go for a walk to Tailrace Park and grab a few caches on the way.
A quick find. The log was quite damp however I was still able to sign it. TNLN. TFTC.

In Tassie for a few days with 6hinemoa2 for some fun caching in the Southern state. The cache container was full of water so we emptied it and signed the log Thanks for the cache
Out with Sorceysal for a few days of caching fun in Tassie . We had just driven off the boat after a long night in the recliner lounge and were heading to Ross via Launceston.
Of course we couldn’t go past a cache along the way . This was saturated. You must have had a lot of rain in Tasmania.

#8076 - 12:10; After arriving in Tasmania last Saturday and heading down to Hobart for a few days, we are now in Launceston. After a meeting in the city, I decided to grab a cache or two while I killed a bit of time before catching up with an old mate for lunch. Parked beside the highway and after managing to prick myself on some blackberries, managed the find. TFTC CatWomanAU 
On a bike ride with some venturers tonight a great opportunity to grab a cache or two.
This cache was hunted, tagged and released by activehunters tftc.

Great to finally find this one, a little tricky with all the blackberries, but it is that time of year. TFTC.
No fitness equipment seen on me stroll around today 
A few fitness fanatics were seen jogging past though.
Me own fitness ??
Well the experts recommend at least 20 minutes of exercise everyday
I think I'm overdosing while chasing caches [:o]
Yes !! Geocaching keeps you healthy [^]
And down here by the riverside,
down by the riverside,
I soon found this cache hiding
And as an extra health benefit this morning,
I got to guzzle quite a few blackberries

Hi there CatWomanAU.
We are camped at Old Mac's Farm, near Launceston (EIEIO
). We are planning to find some geocaches around the area in the next few days. We found your cache **"Memory Lane #2 Fitness First"** at 11:25:00 AM today. (This brings our total find count to 18511).
We ended up finding a variety of container types and sizes on our journey & found 11 caches (& DNF'd 0).
Thank you for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places to visit on our nomadic wander around Australia.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container is cartainly not a regular size [:(!]d cache as indicated on the cache page.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

Went for a quick cycle loop to grab four caches around here which we hadn't looked for before, and learned that caching on a bike is amazing!! So nice to be so quick between finds. This was actually the busiest cache in terms of muggles coming past! We were able to wait for a gap and then make the last fine on our loop. TFTC:)
Nice quick find on my way past. First day caching in a while, glad to be getting back into it!
Checked cache. A OK'd. Even got a cheer from the neighbours, so my muggle radar is off!
Found this on my lunch run today, muggles sprung me just as I was about to replace, so rather than wait around for them to pass I took it out to Tailrace and back - sorry to anyone searching In that 15 minute window!!! Tnlndsl will be back at some stage with pen to sign log tftc
Suffering from cabin fever I just had to get out and find a few easy caches today even though the weather was about to turn atrocious! A nice quick find our 5th for the day. SL TFTC CatWomanAU
Quick find, nice to finally be able to tick this one off, thanks for resurrecting.
Well there would be no hope of finding the old cache with all of this flooding debris. Cache replaced.
Not sure if everything was just overgrown? Had a really good look. Hopefully muggers haven't taken it
Travelling around Australia and spending a few months in Tasmania.
Back on the bikes this afternoon. Popular area here along the river for all types of muggles had to have eyes in the backs of our heads.
Cache was found but not 'exactly' where we expected it to be, but near enough.
The caches that we found today were all in good order.
Looking forward to meeting local cachers at the Event on 17th October.

Found while visiting in Launceston from Newcastle. Took a while to find even though the GZ was only 2 meters from cache. TFTC
TFTC had o wait for a few walkers to pass before I could have a good look for this one but soon had it in hand.
Found while down here on holidays from Queensland visiting the Tassie in-laws over the Christmas period.
This was a busy spot when I arrived, the dozen or so muggles on push bikes seem to take forever to go past.
Once they were out of sight it was an easy find for me while out exploring the local area.

TFTC great day out walking with daughter

Obfuscation. And cuts. Sorry to the fauna whose nighttime home I may have unsettled.
at 1801. We are on a 9 day bus tour through Tasmania arranged by the Albany Creek Garden Club in Brisbane.
Our free time is very limited but we were carrying a large TB and were anxious to find a large enough cache to drop it in. This was the nearest regular cache to our motel (1.62 km) so we made a fast walk to it before dinner. It took us a while to find it as it is well hidden and we were getting anxious when Cyndi spotted it. We made it and picked up two other caches on the way back to arrive at dinner only 15 minutes late.
We dropped the Little Kangas Big Adventure TB.
TFTC CatWomanAU. The cache is fine.

Searched everywhere that matched clue, approached from another angle and spotted it easy. TFTC find #214 
Found during a short stay in the northern part of the island with deercheetah (daughter and granddaughter).
Quick and easy find - we likes these. Thanks for the cache.

Nice easy find with friends. No pen so could not sign the log book. Took dummy key chain and left badge
After being scratched by searching I finally got a visual but was bleeding enough already. Did not sign log but got photo. TFTC. Angus88 the great GeoWestie assisted by grey nomad Carer Lis Brown enroute from Bundaberg Qld to Perth WA via all of Tasmania. Love, love, love Tassie.
