Hi there doheng,
This cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as a cache that **MAY** need some attention.
You may recall having received an automated email from Geocaching HQ which explained what you needed to do.
Unfortunately, nothing seems to have happened, so I am having to take the next step and temporarily disable the cache - see here: [**Geocache Health Score.**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713)
**You do need to respond in some way within 14 days so others know exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication kill this cache.**
#What should you do now:-#
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-
- **Check On The Cache:-** Visit the cache and repair and/or replace 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.
- **Place A Write Note Log:-** Reviewers are not mind readers, so without your note on the cache page telling them what the situation is, they can't tell what is going on with the cache.
So please just post a note to the page (within 14 days) and, when the listing is next checked, all will be fine for a little bit longer. But be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it.
If you have a long term unavailable cache (where you don't have an actual date), please ensure you visit this page and post a note every 4 to 6 weeks so as to keep everyone up to speed with what is happening.
- **Adopt/Archive:-** 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 the above. Well, when the cache is next checked by a Reviewer, if the issue has not been addressed, or there is no acknowledgment as requested above, it will be assumed the cache has been abandoned and processed accordingly.
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.
**JUST A TIP:-** Have you checked out the new Geocaching Dash Board designed to assist a Cache Owner in managing the caches they own? Have a read about it [**HERE.**](https://www.geocaching.com/blog/2020/07/welcome-to-the-cache-owner-dashboard/?newsletter=PM) You will find your very own dash board [**HERE**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/owner?utm_source=geocaching&utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=COD)

Dug around the area marked in attempt to find. No cache anywhere. Either ended up in the reeds of has been stolen.
I was too close not to detour around the corner after skating and go for this cache. I l really like these wetlands to walk around and the location of the cache is very picturesque. Luckily the water wasn't any deeper and I could cross on the rocks. While I was filling in the logbook I could here a muggle walking the path so I had to wait for them to pass before leaving quietly.

A stroll around this area this morning found the cache safe and sound. Plenty of bird life chirping away.
Found. Thought we were going swimming for a moment...but not today. With reeofmar. Matt Mel and Tom
Came back for a second go thankfully the water in the creek was lower this time
Second time we found this. Everything has grown a lot since last time we looked.
Needed to get out of the house & stumbled across this area. Great hide. Thank you.
Another sunny day in and around Mildura
While looking around, we found your cache!
Logs with the team Mattycat stamp include Purrfect Di, Jack, and Sebastbat as well as teen muggle Alex. Some may get our initials as well All have made us smile
A wander through the wetlands soon found a small track in where we needed.

Day two of 2020 and still in Mildura. This proves to be fun in the almost dark as the network of tracks did not show up but trusty torch found a few geo trails. Bird song greeted me so just may come back for a day visit! TFTC
A nice little morning walk from Mildura to these wetlands. Had a tour around and found geocache along the way
Off on a road trip to the Silo Art tour Vic, Mildura, Goolwa SA, Maitland SA and then home via Murray Bridge, Naracoorte, and the Grampians, picking up some caches along the way as we see the sights. We have arrived at the next stop on our trip, Mildura. We headed over here with the geo-Sister and geo-Brother-in-Law to check out the wetlands before heading back to our accommodation to watch the Melbourne Cup. We all made it across the creek without getting our feet wet and it was Mrs Pooky who made the quick easy find as the cache was visible on approach. TFTC and bringing us to this area. TNLN.
Beautiful spot with the sound of birds all around, just lovely. You will need to cross the little rock creek so be careful it's slippery! Took a toy and replaced with a toy. The container is brittle though and damaged. It will need replacing. TFTC. SL and replaced.
Travelling around Australia, camped on the mighty Murray today we headed out to see where Geocaching would take us. We found your cache during our explore.

Took a little bashing around but we got there. Such a gorgeous little hiding spot. Tftc
Nice little spot, would be perfect for a picnic. You have to cross a little rock bridge to get to the catche so be careful bit slippery
Found with my daughter and puppy. It was my puppy’s first Geocache. Good on ya Stormie.
Thanks Douheng, found this cache eventually, we walked in the other way. Found in good condition. Thanks for bringing us on this walk.
Came out on dusk today and put a new logbook in. Old logbook is still in cache for CO to collect. Removed some inappropriate swaps and placed some new ones in. No longer any issues with this cache. Thanks.
Even though the Needs Archive log (Dec/23/2018) is inappropriate in this instance, it would seem that this cache would appear to be in need of owner intervention.
Therefore I am logging a Needs Maintenance log and hopefully, the owner will take the opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.
