Currently at the Top End, unable to get near this cache for many months, so it has to go.Three logs by one cacher has done the job a chainsaw couldn't do.
##Cache Maintenance Required please.##This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit, to address the issue described in the logs. The cache owner needs to either fix the problem or archive the listing, after picking up any geo-litter. In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page.See the maintenance section of the [Geocache Hiding Guidelines](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance). If there is a good reason for a delay in enabling this cache, please post an update note log here on the cache page so that everyone will know what's going on. When the maintenance is completed, you can re-enable the listing by entering an "Enable Listing" log, and then post an "Owner Maintenance" log to clear the "Needs Maintenance" attribute, if set.I will check back in 30 days to be sure that the maintenance has been done, or that further information has been provided. If there has been no action to repair the cache, or explain the situation, unfortunately I will need to Archive this cache. Caches archived because of lack of maintenance will not be unarchived.The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.Thank youBalayangCommunity Reviewer -Australia
GZ area is covered with dead tree. Impossible to get in. Needs maintenance.
Visited today and found the honoured gentleman, but unfortunately, GZ appears to have altered with the dumping of dead trees and no cache to be found by us today.
Caching our way in Jurien Bay and surrounds as a part of IGD23 This was a nice simple multi to start off the day. TFTH!
Teamed up with Photo-Play first thing this morning and made a quick find here. Thank you for the cache WanderingAus.
In Jurien Bay with BJA3 for the IGD weekend.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this hide for us and others to enjoy finding!
We really like these LKA series so have a fav!

Hitting the road for IGD2023 in Jurien Bay. Looking forward to a great weekend! I’ve only been to Jurien Bay once in my life, and that was for a lunch stop on the way to Geraldton, so it will be good to spend some time in town. Naturally the drive up and back were caching missions in their own right, with the objective to clean up the new placements. Plenty of new and old caches in town too, that I am yet to have touched up in my last trip. This cache was one of this weekend’s many stops. Cheers WanderingAus!
In Jurien Bay for [IGD2023](https://coord.info/GCA9VEJ) this weekend having a ball finding heaps of caches by day and telling stories by night at the caravan park. A great weekend with lots of laughs, one to remember.
Met up with geotrakka and neva2old for a trip out to Stockyard Gully Cave picking up a few of the new smilies along the way. Found this multi after a not so short search, it was neva2old that came up trumps as I was about to give the game away.
WanderingAus I found your cache at 1:31pm, this was the 9th of 26 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 8044. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

Thanks WanderingAus; all’s in good shape here. Thanks for bringing us here to remember those who’ve served.
Last cache at Jurian before heading further north and always on a multi mission. Have travelled WEST from home base 3500 km away and that includes altitude as well so enjoying the landscape and habitat changes of this BIG country. Surprisingly new cemetery or new work! TFTC and the lure to visit.
I see dead people.
Heading south after one mintue of moon shadow. This is one of stops on a long journey.
Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun.

Find 5 of 14 with 1 DNF. Mr O wanted to walk the Yonga Trail before it got too hot and this was the only weekend we could come and overnight in Jurien Bay for an early start. Mrs O's knees didn't fancy the full loop and opted to make Mr Lesueur her far point.
Edited log. Hit enter a bit quick!
I generally leave the the solving of these to Mr O, perhaps because he always arrives at the source first, but on this occasion I had to do the calculations myself. Thankfully I got it right and a quick find was had.

After spending the night in Billabong Motel Meadow I was taking on the last stage of my journey from Exmouth to Perth . As I was heading further south weather was constantly deteriorating, but it was still good enough for several cache stops . Thanks for giving me so many chances to pause my long journey and of course

PS: Info was found quickly and a few moments later I was able to sign the log [:o)].

Another LKA completed. I do like these, and this was a nice easy one. Thanks for placing this cache for our enjoyment.
Out and about again caching, this time heading back from Geraldton and picking a few along the way - mainly picking up LGA’s.
Found a variety of hides and in different areas which made for a nice day. Generally quick finds today
Thanks to all the CO’s for the hides I found.

We just had enough light to complete this multi after visiting Jurien Bay this evening. A wander around these old headstones found us with the necessary info to collect the final.
Thanks WanderingAus for the multi placement in an interesting location. We always like a good historic cemetery.

Today saw us tackle a few 4wd hides with a bit of exploring in between, this was right up muggle Hubby’s alley. I really enjoyed climbing sand dunes and lookouts as well. Thanks to the CO’s for placing and maintaining caches.
A quick find by mildandcob after collecting the numbers and doing the maths. Thanks for the cache WanderingAus - interesting locations to visit, but no plans to stay!
Up in Sandy Cape for a girls camping trip for the week. Dropped the girls off at the boat ramp in town while I go hunting. Happy to see an LKA here - I always enjoy these. Cache is great condition , signed and replaced as found. Thanks WanAus 167
came back for a second time and saw it straight away after a bit of searching in a bush
very good camouflage container TFTC

Found it. TFTC WanderingAus. Once I had the final it was a easy find replaced as found. Another LKA done.
Thank WanderingAus for another excellent LKA, we really like these caches! Picked up a TB to move on its way
A nicely kept cemetery a nice simple multi LKA all in good condition TFTC. Dropped of trackables.
Finally we are on holidays and we are heading north for sun and the beach. On our travels we completed a detour to come find this multi. Nice and easy cache found in good condition but log was missing so have put in a temporary log until someone can replace it with one of better quality.
WanderingAus wandered by on a maintenance run, and confirmed the cache was still in place, but light on for swaps. I replaced the container with a 500 ml drab camo'd screw-top plastic container, replaced the logbook kindly placed by Meme28 with one of mine, replaced the rusty pencil sharpener, and added one pencil and a few swaps.
Day 2- Heading north for a four day break, I had a few caches on my list to find. Add a smiley here plus I have added a new log book. Thanks to the COs for maintaining these caches for our enjoyment! Cheers
Love an LKA. Did this one in the rain but didn’t get too wet TFTC. Log book is quite full
Heading up to Geraldton for a weekend camping trip and as usual earmarked a few caches along the way to stop off and stretch the legs. This one - and the nearby trad - were my Jurian targets today After a quick find at the other cache, I drove across to the cemetery. No one around so spent a few minutes wandering around before heading to the necessary location to get the numbers. Always like visiting locations like this so was in no rush Numbers quickly calculated, then I wandered off to GZ. Took a few goes to uncover the container, it was only when I repositioned myself slightly did I spot something that needed further investigation... No problems here though, thanks for bringing me here today. TFTC
On a road trip to Gero then Exmouth. Stopped in here for my only cache for the day.

Staying in Jurien Bay for a few days, we were determined to find this one after making a balls up of it when we first arrived [:o)] Well, it was that I had actually nutted this one out years ago but only discovered after looking for this one that perhaps I had miscalculated!
It probably would have been quicker to just go to the grave & re-do the questions, but later on back at camp I realised my error & we soon had some more co-ords These also did not seem correct & with some more fruitless searching we noticed a bit of a typo when plugging in the coords
Once having the correct info, Jase made the quick find in a much more suitable spot... TFTC WanderingAus [^]

I see some complaints about caches in cemeteries but if they can teach us some history and help us not to forget our fallen soldiers then I'm all for it. Also I am a sucker for multis and a cemetery is a great place for them.
After working out the numbers we headed to GZ and, after a bit of poking around by all four of us, the egg found it. Nicely hidden.
Thanks WanderingAus

We gathered data as quickly as possible at WP1 to escape the ant attack. A bit unsure at GZ but some previous logs pointed us in the right direction. TFTC WanderingAus
We were very pleasd that the weather is quite a bit cooler today which makes hiunting for caches more enjoyable. Our selected caches took us to some very good lookouts and viewing points and some had interesting history to read as well.
Each cache had two names added where appropriate, as we were travelling with ilook4geo.
This nice multi gave the correct numbers to substitute into the formula and took us to GZ. Looked around a bit and located the container. Thanks go to WanderingAus for this cache placement.

Going out today with goingplaces2 to find some caches in more coastal areas. Beautiful day today, cooler but very windy. Cache found easily and in good condition after working out the new location. TFTC.
Well that led us a merry chase, teach me to check and recheck my figures. Tyfc. All is good there.
Was looking in the rite spot but didn't see it at first. Walked away for a second then found it. TFTC
Having a quick lunch and brief geocaching fun in Jurien Bay. Found after finding the required info and doing some maths. tftc sl tnln
On the drive up to Gero from Perth today. After lunch at the local bakery we stopped off here for a quick find once calcs were done. TFTC
One of these days I’m going to stop grovelling around in bushes in my work clobber. Nice and quiet here today though so not conspicuous. Grabbed between showers.
Spending a couple of days at local caravan park now thatnit isn’t busy. Left the family behind and did a solo trip out to this cache. Glad my maths was good.
TFTC
The listed TB isn’t in this cache. There was another one and I took that but it seems the last person is still logging it. I will sort it out with them before I log it

Second day in Jurien Bay, early in the morning we took a swim in Jurien bay. After the swim we drove to Green Head and the surroundings. We walked the glacier like dunes, and the great views on the coastline. In the late afternoon we also drove trough the NP of Lesueur! We ended at the cemetary of Jurien Bay, of course not for getting buried, but for logging my first multicache in Australia! It was another great day again! Tomorow we'll drive to Kallbari! Fasten your seatbelts!
My first multicache in Australia is a fact! The cache is still on his place!
IN: 1 TB
OUT: 1 GC

Unfortunately I couldn't track this one down today. A few trees/shrubs have been removed - not sure if that has anything to do with it or it was just poor searching.
Always enjoy these LKA caches. Found the final waypoint and cache easily enough. TFTC
We headed off on a return road trip today to add some more numbers and claim some smileys, a quick bit of math and we had this cache in hand, Neva2old we seen the eyeball TFTC
Didn't have time for this one on the way up to Gero but made time on the way back. Found the site, obtained the coords and went off to find the cache and indeed we did find ti. All well with cache. Signed log and headed to Jurien for some overdue lunch and coffee. TFTC!
Stopped at this cache whilst on a roadtrip with Eliktrisiti. We didn't find as many caches in the Geraldton area as we had hoped for, and after being home for a week or so, I have decided that the motto I would adopt for these logs would be this: It isn't the destination that is important, it is the journey!
In a nutshell, we had fun and that is what it is all about. Great company, lots of interesting locations, good variety of caches, even got to meet one of the local geocachers while out and about, and of course, we came home with a whole swag of smileys.
This cache was found on the homeward journey. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache WanderingAus.

Couldn't find it for quite a while. Then I checked my formula and discovered I'd made an error by leaving out one of the letters. Stupid me. I was looking in the correct general area anyway and eventually uncovered it. Thanks for the cache WanderingAus.
Ok so I'm hooked and now have a caching name thanks to neva2old. We felt a bit creepy doing this one but we signed sealed and delivered Tftc
Found it with muggle Sue, swapped a Tassone devil for an eye ball to Krop watch over this cache. Tftc
Beautiful afternoon in Durien and enjoyed doing the rounds of town. Collected the info and made a quick find at gz. Thanks WanAus
Thank you! I headed up to Cervantes for the weekend, for some sightseeing and a cache or two.
Today was for national parks and caches, and I stopped here after visiting Lesueur National Park. After arriving at GZ, I sat down at a nearby bench to figure out the final. A low flying plane caught my attention, and looking skyward, I saw a number of parachutes floating to Earth. While perhaps commonplace to the locals, it was fun to watch for me. With the new coordinates entered into the GPS, I soon found the cache.

Originally logged under clan-wallace. Geohubby wants his own caching name so guess who is relogging the lot for him?
I really like doing LKA caches, I will have to hide one! This was a good one, a very small but perfectly formed graveyard. We seem to have been following in the exhausted footsteps of Everlasting on this trip. I hop we get to meet up with her over the weekend. TFTC
