Requires maintenance.

This was supposed to be my first find of the day, but after looking around for a couple of minutes, I consulted the previous logs which confirm it's more than likely missing.

No joy, can see great hidings spots though

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Went looking in anticipation but like many others it was a DNF for us to.

Indeed DNF

Not found, sorry

It should be easy, but there was no Cache.

For three days we visit the cultural capital of Australia, with its large glass towers, beaches, street art and the Chinese New Year bonus Then we visit
Then we head for Phillip Island where we meet our first kangaroos, little penguins and breathtaking landscapes. Walking is the best way to explore the Wilsons Promontory Nature Reserve. Nicknamed 'The Prom' by locals
A small flight by plane and here we are in the financial capital of Australia Sydney for three days with his famous opera his Sydney Tower of 309 m and his famous bay visited by boat We will make a small detour by the Blue Mountain before joining Melbourne by the coast through Australia Rock and our first seals and the Kiama Blow Hole
for the sequel will be the famous "Great Ocean Road" with the twelve apostle, Apolo bay and the peroquets that eat us in hand at Kafe Koala

- 120 caches (a GPS)
-18 homes
-a very beautiful country
I thank all the installers for allowing me to do my hobby and discover places that are not in the travel books

Needs checking please.

Looks like this one has fallen foul of an unwanted visitor and has been taken. Great spot, spent the day jumping off the old diving boards into the river, kids loved it

Tried to get to this one whilst over in Tassie doing a whirlwind seven day tour around this amazing island state. Home again now, tired but happy, and committed to returning another time to explore some more. Didn't find that many caches during the time I was there, but this was one that I did manage to sneak off from my muggle companions and attempt to find. No joy, despite spending quite some time looking. I see another cacher logged it as found just two days later, but the log reads like they didn't find it at all. Given that and previous logs, I suspect that the cache might indeed be missing. Perhaps the CO could check on it?? Thanks anyway CatWomanAU

I found a likely place for the cache to be hidden, but I get the feeling that it has been removed from it’s hiding spot

Found some rocks, found a hole. Sure looked like a good spot but no cache for me.

After we enjoyded the ride in the chairlift, we're looking for the cache that had to be here somewhere.
We've checked the hint, and then it was very easy to find.

Our tenth day in Tasmania and today we're exploring the area near Launceston. Our first stop is at Cataract Gorge. Beautiful location. Quick find by the geomom. Hello from Calgary, Canada. TFTC.

Arrived at Cataract Gorge, saying “ I wonder if there is a geocache here. My daughter says there is probably one in those %#}{^*. So I checked the app and would you believe it. There was one in those %#}{^*. Daughter went and got the cache and I did the legals and replaced as found. TFTCM
Cheers

Nice and quick. Cheers from QLD

Over the years, geocaching has taken me on many adventures, including interesting destinations all over my home continent of Australia and many overseas as well. It has also introduced me to a diverse group of like-minded caching tragics, many of whom I now call close friends.

Today, I was lucky enough to be out and about searching for caches, something I do on almost a daily basis. This was one cache that was targeted and found.

Sorry for the late and generic log, something I am notorious for. Thank you CatWomanAUfor adding to the adventure that is geocaching.

We found a container and it needed a new log, so we added one for you. We parked our car in front of the spot so we had some 'cover'.

What a most unexpected little get away.....I needed some R&R and the lovely micaparamedic needed to cache in Tassie to meet a challenge cache's requirements, soooo a plan was quickly hatched and we were on our way.

Gary was good enough to do all of the driving (a real treat for me) so I just relaxed as we explored various beautiful locations that Tassie has to offer.....and we even picked up a cache or two. [^]

The weather was fantastic, the food was delicious, and I was delighted to catch up with some very special people.

Thanks so much for the cache CatWomanAU!

Easy find, beautiful walk across the bouncy bridge and around the basin. Tftc

Quick find during our walk through the Cataract Gorge Reserve. Tftc

Tftc there was no log so have add some paper

Tftc

There is no log book, sorry not got my geo bag today to replace

Spent the morning wandering around Cataract Gorge and revisiting the fabulous Redwood tree that I remember from my last visit in December 1995 (I was just about to start my horticultural studies and was awestruck by the first Redwood that I'd seen). Picked up this cache on the way out - had parked almost next to it! Log book was missing and unfortunately didn't have any spares with me. Have taken photo for verification of required.

Easy find TFTC

Nice one, TFTC!

Found it good job

TFTC, excellent one.

Found this one after a nice long walk via the Zig Zag track and around the Gorge and then back along Seaport. Don't know why I haven't found this cache before but wasn't expecting to be caching so I didn't bring a pen but did take a picture of the log, will get back and sign it soon. TFTC.

Gorgeous little container! Thanks!

Had a few hours at the end of our Tassie trip so checked out the gorge. Saw some nice peacocks on the way. Parked right on GZ for a quick find. Thanks.

Found

TFTC nice and easy

Found with DRZBWILSON. TFTC

Quick find on a very cold and frosty morning!
Tftc

Nice quick find after finding a heap of caches in the gorge , thanks for replacing

Third try at this one saw it was replaced so looked again yay there it is!!! Tftc

Cache Replaced - let's see how long this one lasts. If not long, I have a creative replacement in mind....

As previous two cachers, DNF and looks like it's been muggled. Obvious spot is open and the rocks presumably used as cover are scattered around.
Good spot nevertheless

First for the morning however unsuccessful. Good day all the same.

Hunted high and low for this but no luck Hint seems very obvious and coordinates spot on. There were a couple of obvious hiding places so not sure if this one has been muggled?? Really enjoyed the gorge afterwards!

Danke für den Cache - TFTC!

Jnr badnuz05 found before I could even get out of geo 4x4 lol! Great way to start an arvo!

Good cache... had to plan my find as the muggles were around...

Last cache found in the gorge for the day, in the carpark on the way out. Quick find thanks to the hint. Cache dry and in good condition.

TFTC CatWomanAU

Thanks great spot Maggie 2

Found it thanks

Quick find before our walk

We came to Tasmania and visited Cataract Gorge ... did few walks and coz this cache was nearby with our car, so we grabbed and add one more smiley face on our list.

TFTC CatWomanAU

What a terrific spot. Beautiful place to spend a few hours or the whole day swimming! TFTC!

A quick find on the way out of Cataract Gorge. Thanks for the cache.

Quick find after we enjoyed the chairlift & swing bridge stroll. Kids loved spotting peacock's in the grounds. This is our first find in tassie with Cristabel. Tftc & the handy hint in a high muggle area. No free car spaces today.

Found @ 2:27pm with squiggle30 after a lovely walk around the gorge with hccatcher11415

Quickly spotted by squiggle, the cache was retrieved and replaced with no-one any the wiser.

Thanks CatWomanAU

Found after a fun time at the gorge.

I spotted this one first then I let allrounder find it.

Thank you for the cache.

Quick grab before heading out to explore the gorge.

First stop in Tassie. Loved the Gorge walks, and this quick find to mark our arrival in the State today.

An easy finr early in the morning, not to many people around here.

Easy start to the day
Tftc

Found this after a awesome walk along the gorge. Tftc

This cache has history with us! Today we found it! Sweet! All fairly quiet at the end of the day. Thanks...

Auf unserer gemeinsamen Reise durch Australien (nun sind wir für 14 Tage auf Tasmanien!) gings mit Wollitier auch hier und da zum Cachen.

Diese Dose hier konnte von uns gut und schnell gefunden werden.

Das Würmchen sagt **DANKE!**

*(mein Australien-Fund Nr.39)*

Where is it!!

Two Norwegian travellers on vacation/geocaching in Australia. Travelling by car from Brisbane to Adelaide with stops in interesting and not so interesting places. We have been travelling almost 5000 kilometers before we returned the car in Adelaide last week. Then we flew over to Tassie, hired a new car and will do a rouindtrip the next 2 weeks. Started in Hobart and went to Saddle Mountain and then to Stanley. After two nights in Stanley we are heading for Launceston.
Arrived yesterday. Today we are going by foot to Cataract Gorge and will log caches on our way. Hot and sunny day. Typical Tassie weather??
Had a brew from a local producer at the gorge before continuing our walk back to town. Found the cache in good coords. TB out.
TFTC

Nice with hint

Easy find. Dropped off tb

Tftc

Yes, could be a tricky story to retrieve this one. I seem to be lucky to have come here on a quiet day, so I could easily log and replace the container.
Thanks for the hide, CatWomanAU!

Quickly found today tftc

Our first Tassie cache! TFTC.

This was a quick find which almost made up for DNF that we spent 45 minutes searching for a little while ago. - Zeke & George of Hot Springs, Arkansas, USA

Forgot my pen but found it snug in its hidey hole.tftc

This was a real walk in the ...park.

Hmmm, my immediate reaction was to wonder what memories or such were created in that particular parking bay???
Many thanks CatWomanAU from the Wacky one

I am trying to figure what happened here in car park number 9. Anyway, off to another cache - aiming for Paradise by the Dashboard lights - on the way to Ben...

Thanks to CatWomanAU and *clear skies* from TeamAstro. Cache the planet!

Found this one when I was up at the gorge looking for number 6 of the weary traveller series. Sadly there were some weary travelers exactly where I wanted to be. So- I was very happy to go looking for another in the area. Thanks!

A walk in the Gorge after a rainy day. Tftc

TFTC

Nice

May the way of the Hero lead to the cache!

I cache your reality and substitute my own! TFTC.

Quick find on a relatively muggle-free day. TFTC

Hi

I'm sorry, but your recent move has brought your cache too close to the Traditional Cache of "Weary Traveller (6/7)" http://coord.info/GC6J547 and will need to be moved. Please read the following item on cache saturation http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachesaturation


I've disabled this listing for the time being, could you please move it to a new location that fits within the saturation guidelines. Once that is done you may enable the cache.

Hi Tchingal

CatWomanAU here.

Apologies for the delay - I have replaced Memory Lane #4 - Gorge Yourself, if you could please reactivate it as per your note.

Ready to go..

An action had been taken on this cache because of one of the following -

No response from the cache owner to the previous reviewer note ask for this cache to receive maintenance.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As there has been no response I'm archiving this cache to stop it from showing up in my reviewer searches and new placement checks.

Please remember to return to the GZ and collect the cache or Check it has been removed if you have not already done so.

We don't want to litter our environment with Geotrash and if you have any TB's or coins in your cache I'm sure the owners would want them moved on.

If you decide to proceed with this cache in the next 28 days please contact me via email and I'll unarchive it for you.

This cache has now been taken off my watchlist and I will not see any notes you leave on the cache page from today

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

When I found it, the cache was an M&M tube at Base of tree in long grass, could be mistaken for rubbish!

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I noticed that this cache has been unavailable for an extended period of time without maintenance occuring as set out in the cache guidelines published on Geocaching.com.

While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other caches from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever.

Please either repair/replace this cache, or archive it (using the *archive listing* link in the upper right) so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location.

I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you plan on repairing this cache, please **log a reviewer note to the cache** (not email) within the next 28 days detailing when it will be replaced, so I don't archive the listing for non-communication. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a **reviewer note** every month (28 Days) to keep everyone up to date.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice

I have a funny feeling that maintenance in the area may have lost this one.

This hide was too sneaky for me today. TFTH.

No luck for me here either

In a tree? Under a rock? In this cossack bush? I stuck it out while people walked by every few minutes but no luck.
