Time to archive this one.

###Cache Maintenance Visit Required please.###
This geocache has been brought to my attention as needing an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache. See the [GCHQ Health Score](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713) process.
I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it checked by the Cache Owner.

The cache owner needs to:

* Take action to restore the cache or address issues such as correcting the D/T rating.
* 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 Liz and Bruce 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 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 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

The cache is hidden under rocks but if it cannot be found could the cache please be replaced. With our thanks Liz and Bruce

DNF after a long search

A lot of DNF‘s

Left no stone unturned and could not find unfortunately

Searched for quite some time, but unsuccessfull

We looked high and we looked low but no luck for us here today. No doubt we will be back to explore this lovely area.

Thanks anyway.

Gave up after 15 mins searching with 5 people, even considering the notes from the other cachers

This is another lookout with a wonderful view. It is a shame that Ross died so young. The cache was found after searching for quite a while.

Under rocks. Ye! Finally. Great views. Tftc

Found it. TFTC Liz and Bruce. I was on Plan "B" before I found it. Replaced as found. What a great place.

Walked down to the lookout here with ilook4geo and went off track just a little to look for this cache. It was a surprisingly quick find and the GPS said 1 m. Looked around and noticed something that suggested a hiding place and that proved to be right. It was the first place checked. The log had two more names added and was then put back in its place. Thank you to Liz and Bruce for placing this cache.

This was a great lookout to visit with goingplaces2 and the nearby cache was a bonus. Something caught our eye at GZ and the cache was found. All was in good condition and the log was signed. TFTC.

Geodaugther gave up quickly due to the wide area to comb and the very annoying flies... Will be back for a proper search but suggest to narrow down coordinates at actuel GZ for kids.

TFTC challenging climb down, was hard to find as cache not at co-ordinates, recommend changing GZ to actual location instead of reading hint to find new location.

After we all trekked down hunted everywhere. Super trooper Mrs DD had another go after we checked pictures. Yeh had it in her hand!

Yahoo, found by mrs Geo after walking back down after checking spoiler photos, well done dear. Started our 2nd tour of WA now touring around the south slowly heading north on our way home to Cairns. Did your K5 - Ross Graham today. 2 March 2022 12:27 pm Tyfc Liz and Bruce total caches now 4409 .

Wow Rocks & Rocks & more Rocks. GPS a bit jumpy, spent 40 mins around GZ but had to call it quits!!!!thanks anyway.

Quick find here, tftc!

Marble Bar to Baldivis with axell33. We ventured further away from the highway to seek this cache out. With the full moon hiding behind the clouds, lighting since Karratha, rain, roos, goats and a rabbit, we were all good for our walk to gz. Being the middle of the night, we were alone and could hear the river rushing below. We made the find after a bit of a search about the area. A good walk after a long drive was much appreciated. We will enjoy this amazing area once again on another occasion. It has been many,many years since I was here last! Thanks for the cache here.

Taking a detour off the highway to change the pace a bit, we made our way to this cache. We parked up and made our walk to gz which to be honest was exactly what was needed. After making our way down in the dark we started our search in the dark with the sound of the river below us. We searched for about 10 minutes before we finally made the find. We signed your log book at exactly 5am just when the first tiny hint of sun was starting to show. We stayed for a little while enjoying the moonlight on the rock face and early morning sounds of the bush. We returned your cache to where we found it. Now for the walk back to get the blood pumping for the next leg of the drive. TFTC Liz and Bruce

Day five of our stay in Kalbarri out and about checking out some of the local sights. The missus stayed up top again as I went down for the view and the cache.

A quick find with the new coords and supplied spoiler pic.

Liz and Bruce I found your cache at 2:03pm, this was the 6th of 6 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 6514. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

SLTFTC

We searched high and low. Actually, nearly all low, but no luck. Way too many possible hiding spots.

Took a while for the gps to make up its mind but found it in the end

With the help of Kevin's phone an easy find. TFTC

It was a little bit climbing until we found this cache.
TFTC

A quick find in the morning.
Tftc

Since this one is obviously gone, we decided to replace it.
It is placed according to the hint at S27 48.706 E114 28.450
It's hidden at a dry branch under some rocks.
TFTC and greetings from Austria

We did here a replacement of this box. The new coords and a spoiler picture too.
S 27'' 48.705

Happy caching. Maybe the terrain should be a little bit higher.
TFTC and greetings from Austria

Although we searched for quite a while, we couldn' t find this one.

TFTC,

Very pity, we searched in vain! PePPer812

Please replace this cache if you think it is missing. with thanks Liz and Bruce

No internet and GPS didnt help so didnt find sadly!

19 days trip from Broome to Perth - together with Sharrrk I came here - but without Sharrrk I had to search because he enjoyed the scenery while I tried to figure out the meaning of the hint - which was not very helpfull in a scenery consisting of rocks... Also I wasn't sure what you mean by "from GZ" - do you want me to add some meters to the GZ coordinates and not give exact coordinates? Or did you mean the viewpoint? Anyway - I tried everything and found nothing. After a while I decided to continue the walk and enjoy the scenery without this cache Thanks for leading us here.

While on my #midlifegapyear travels around Australia we found our way to Kalbarri... A stop at the river gorges was on today's agenda, and this made for an easy find while here. Thanks for this tourist friendly cache in this spot Liz and Bruce, great to put a smiley here to mark my travels on the geomap.

TFTC

Today our tour - which began in Perth, WA , and led us thru Western, Northern and Southern Australia back to Perth, was simply visiting the NP of Kalbarri.


On the way we came to some interesting locations. Here we searched, found and logged this Tradi-Cache.

Weather was good in the morning and it should even get better during the day.

Thanks to 'Liz and Bruce' for showing us this location, for the fun we had with 'K5 - Ross Graham' and the smiley. The search here and today didn't take too much time, fortunately.

Greetings from Germany and we hope to see you soon in the forest.

Perfect hiding spot!!

On our trip from Perth to Exmouth we made a 2 days stop at the Kalbarri Nationalpark. Today we visited the midland of the Nationalpark. It‘s an amazing place. I can really recommend the walk down to the river. It’s contemplative there!
We have 2 months for holiday in Australia. My aim is to find every day a Cache. This is our seventh day and my twelfth logged Cache.

Back in the Dark Ages when we were younger & fitter we hike in this Canyon & kayaked down the river. Unfortunately that was before we dicovered geocaching. Happy to stand & admire the view today
TFTC

Fortunately I was there on my own, otherwise I would not have looked for the cache. TFTC

Nice walk down and up. Some kangaroos on the other side of the river. TFTC.

TFTC. Nice easy find. Great location

Found with help from my cousins, who took pity on our fruitless efforts. Sadly, we forgot to bring a pen to log the find in the cache.

Heading home from Paraburdoo I took a short detour via Kalbarri to pick up some geo’s. There is plenty to marvel at in these lovely gorges. TFTC

Thank you! Having a mini holiday in Kalbarri. After visiting nature's window, I headed this way for a different perspective. And another cache! Thanks for bringing me here. I very much enjoyed sitting by the river with my feet in the water for a while.

Found with EwaldK

Found with 14lena11. Tftc

Never been here before. Quite a magical location with almost no one else around. Thanks for being us here.

River me timbers that's a swell findaroo

Found it very well. Ist wonderful here in Kalbarri !
Thanks for the Cache

A bit of search around GZ but the coordinaTes were spot on. TFTc! The river is just flooded so everything is so brown but beautiful.

Thanks for the cache. Greetings from Switzerland.

Heute: 4. Cache von total 4 Caches.

Den Cache haben wir beim Besuch des Kalbarri Nationalparks gefunden. Wegen dem Cache mussten wir nicht schwitzen. Diesen fanden wir problemlos. Aber die Luft war sehr heiss, mindestens 40° oder noch mehr.

Danke und Gruss

Another easy tftc

Flies are very friendly but I found it regardless

Found together with Murphy.law on our Australia trip. TFTC!

On our todays’ tour from Kalbarri to Monkey-Mia Roxyline and myself mad a stop here for the nice scenic view. Nearby we were able to find this little cache. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache, Murphy.law

After a nice day of hiking in the aera this is the last cache of the day, a short walk to GZ and the hint was useful...TFC

Had a good look bu no luck today

Quick little find on a hot and fly encrusted day (thank goodness for the hat nets) in Kalbarri National Park.

Found it. Tftc SL. Great location

Lovely day in the national park

Day seventeen of our 'loop tour'. Managed to get a pooch-sitter for most of today so we could do some more of the Nat. Park caches. This was our fourth stop for the day and it was already warming up and the flies in abundance. Another masterpiece of Mother Nature - stunning. The co-ords are now spot on. The hint is no longer relevant. Left new log sheet. Thanks Liz & Bruce

This cache was found today and brings our overall cache find tally to 9899. We found this as part of our 2018 Round Australia trip.

I had some issues with this oine today, after searching around at the GZ for a while I couldn't find anything. After checking the hint I made a quick find. I've included some better coordinates.

Thanks Liz and Bruce for the cache.

We visited the lookout and were able to grab and replace the cache during a break in muggles. Great views. TFTC

TFTH

Out and about visiting the area and grabbing a few caches along the way.

TFTC

Lovely area TFTC

Found on a nice walk.

Today we travelled from Denham to Kalbarri and found this cache. Beautiful views on the Murchison River.

TFTC!

2018.07.14 We all did a quick trek down to cache location and scurried around for a bit, thought it would be a nano considering it's location. Everyone else conceded defeat and headed back to car, on our way up geo wife and I were discussing how it could be obviously hidden. That was when i spied the obvious place and the retrieval was a success.
Only after I put back cache did I see the location hint LOL
TFTC

Geodaughter a bit cranky so leave her with father in the car and looked at another gorgeous gorge. Thanks for the cache

TFTC:)

After spending 2 days fishing in Kalbarri it was time to hunt down some caches and take in the spectacular views ....TFTC

Found with dad (spatialriq) while on a holiday trip to Monkey Mia.

Another beautiful area! Who would had thought this was here after all our flat driving.
TFTC

We drove from Geraldton to Kalbarri to show off our beautiful gorges to visitors from the east. We haven’t been to the Kalbarri gorges for a long time and like the improvements for safety and a good excuse to pick up a cache as well. TFTC. SL.

Quick found. Coordinates slidely off but i found it Tftc
#122, 10:31, Found it with Cachebox!

That's a strange cache, I am not used to search at an offset of the ground zero! But still, we found it after searching during several minutes.
Thanks! We are now heading down to the river!

TFTC great spot

Found the this little box as I stopped here on my way out of the wonderful Kalbarri N.P.

It was a bit weird that this seems to be an offset cache - the coords took me to the plaque, where I looked thoroughly before reading the clue. There's also some very nasty thorns nearby. If you're reading logs for a hint, it's very close to the path.

Today our plans brought us to the NP of Kalbarri! In the morning we start with "Loop the loop" trail. A magnificent walk in a scenic landscape! We are still wondering why there are only 2 geocaches in the area near "Loop the loop". This can be much better imo, there is so much potential in this area! Continueing the walk along the river seemt too strenuous for us, we decided to return and enjoy once more the ridge walk and the winds of the doctor. The flies in Kalbari were more active than usual... Tommorow we drive to Shark bay! Thanks for al these geocaches!

Greetings from the far Belgium where it is currently a freezing winter!

Tftc

After a second attempt for the day i found it with RAMCAN but it was nowhere near the coordinates, only found by pure luck

Tftc

GPS kept jumping around but eventually found it, thank you for the cache.
