Take Five Upper Swan, Western Australia, Australia

I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, AusTrackers, 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 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 you

I took a walk out here a couple of weeks back to try for these three caches. All 3 have been burnt out.

I emailed the CO asking if they would like some help with replacements but after nearly two weeks I haven’t received a reply.

Checking out the area and this one has been burnt out.

Favourite point for the view. Thank you for this amazing spot and cache.

With a couple of hours to kill between the Dr’s and the Tax man, i decided to head into this area and grab a few caches. From Syd’s Rock Den, i relocated the car to near the pay booth and ventured in from there.
Deciding on the furtherest one first, it was a pleasant stroll to this one where i had to leave the track for the last 50 odd meters. Once at GZ, it was a quick find and i added our name to the log before rehiding and retracing my steps back out to the track.

Found. Not to hard to find. Think there’s a theme with rocks

Found well hidden

A bit of a scramble through the bushes and caught some ticks on the way in. Once at the location it was an easy find. Found this cache on the way through Walyunga NP and saw a Blue-Tongue near the campground. If you want to camp at the the campground call ahead and pay the fee to get your access code.

tftc austrackers was up here the other day but did not get a chance to log my finds. Did a short walk to grab the caches on the east side of the park. Love this park lots of great scenery and lots of BIG hills.

Not such a nice view with the weather closing in. GZ was spot on but it took a while to find and then retrieve. TFTC TFT cardio TFT TICKS!

Number 2 for today out for a short walk after camping the night. Cheers

We took the austrackers pathtag

All good here - unfortunately I took the wrong finder cards so was unable to top them up

Found with Beldon Scouts

Spending the weekend camping in the beautiful Walyunga national park. Took to the trails on the deadly treadly's with the Geoson and a muggle mate.

Great views and great fun was capped of with a quick find

Tftc AusTrackers

Wandered by in the rain on a late afternoon stroll in extreme weather conditions, thanks for the cache AusTrackers.

very nice one, well hidden, yet quite easy to find using the gps location.

Found it.... Awesome view!.. Wish the tracks were accessible to vehicles

Nice view worth the hike

After finding nearby "Loads Of Toads" I decided to take the trek to here. A short search discovered the cache nestling............
Lovely walk, great scenery and fantastic cache.

TB222G2 was not in the Cache

Found it - no trackable

Lovely view, I really enjoyed the hike up to this one.

Spent a rainy Sunday afternoon walking around Walyunga National Park picking up a few smilies. Walked 12 km all up. This was the second find of the day. Walking up the hill, I realised that there was probably a hard way and an easy way to get to this one from the track ... I correctly picked the easy way.

Quick find here ... had a quick look around, notived a few possible hiding spots, then thought about where I would hide a cache here and soon had it in hand.

Signed the log. Grabbed a finders card, but when I got home, I found that it gotten wet and all the ink is smudged .

Thanks for the hide AusTrackers ... enjoying my walk around the park, and I was still dry when I left here ... early days though.

Great view

Found the lovely geocache among the granitoid outcrop. Took "Take Five" card from the geocache as souvenir from AusTrackers. For the souvenir cards, spectacular view of the Darling Scarp, and the great effort for putting the geocache, a favourite point is in order! Thank for the hide AusTrackers.

Out doing some hiking today, bit of practice for the Bibbulman Trail.

Decided to do the 10km Echidna trail (which is incredibly steep for quite a while by the way) in the anti-clockwise direction from the carpark, and thought I'd do this cache on the way round.

It appears however, that they have changed to Echidna trail, and it now cuts back in diagonally towards the carpark before you get to the cache. They haven't however updated the downloadable map on the Walyunga website (words fail me sometimes), so I just assumed they had put the trail sign facing the wrong direction and carried on the old track to the cache. If the owner is wondering why this cache isn't getting many visits recently, then this could be the reason.

Found today with Everlasting on a very pleasant walk. Great day to do this one.

Great views.

TFTC AusTrackers

With FelixII. Enjoyed walk along to the GZ - beautiful view and weather just perfect!!!... No swap. Signed the log, collect the card. Thanks AusTrackers.

Great way to get some good exercise.

Fantastic views - given it a favourite point. Renaming this one "Ants in your pants" cos thats where I found one and hadn't even sat down!

Visited Walyunga NP today for a bit of a walk and an overnight camp with Pink_Bilby and some friends. This was the first cache on a 9.5km walk. The cache was easily spotted but we left it up to the kids to find it which took some time. TFTC.

Found on a walk and overnight camp with friends. TFTC

looked all over that hill. never found it. a clue would be nice please

A cache with typical AusTrackers finesse - views, good hide and those lovely finders cards. Thanks guys

Quick find on the way up to "Where's Waly"
TFTH

Took a while to find but great hide.

Great spot and lots of Kangaroos. Sorry didnt take five had more caches to find and not much time, night was coming around way too fast.

TFTH SL

A peaceful and scenic spot to 'take five' and a nice day to enjoy this walk. Thanks for the caches AusTrackers, I've picked up five of your lovely cards today.

It was a beautiful day and a great spot for a cache. We left the girls behind down near the river. We left "go go crazy bone". JJJC

Continued on to this cache after Loads of Toads, would be rude not to! Had quite a search at GZ but finally laid our hands on it. TFTC

Found with Blossom TFTC

We made our way up here from Loads of Toads. What a fabulous view from here, I loved it. It's hard to choose a favourite from today's caches as I really enjoyed them all a lot. But the views here have to make this one a top spot!

Love coming up here! Shame it's the last Austrackers in the area. (Keep you eyes peeled on the new caches though...) took longer than it should have but found in the end. Great spot. The area is full of awesome views. Took TB and left a TB. Confirm there's no Geocoin in the cache. TFTC

Lovely day for a walk, and great views from the cache. Nice and easy to find, and I picked up one of the beautiful finders cards too. I brought a gnome along for the ride, but he didn't make it all the way He is keeping an eye on things from down below. Left Ganesha Travel Bug, unfortunately the GC was not in the cache.

Thanks for the cache and the walk AusTrackers!

Great view, TFTH...no TB in there, took nothing, left a green jemrock

Great view. No TB.

Ran to the top of the hill to take in the stunning
views, then picked up and logged the Cache on the
way back down.

Cheers for bringing me here...
(great location for a Night Cache, I think) !!!

The next find on my AusTrackers-Cache-Log-Day. It was a bit of climbing but found the container easily. I just took one of the finders cards, not five. I get used to these nice designed finders cards having quite a lot of the so far from AusTrackers and WanderingAus.

TFTC and cheers from Germany.

After the recent rain and storms it was nice to get out for a nice stroll after work this afternoon. Enjoyed the short walk after doing the other nearby cache, and enjoyed the great views after a pretty easy find in a great location.
Took the Diabetes TB to move along on its awareness campaign but didnt see the Geoswag GC in there, maybe i just missed it although Mrs Red Devil dosn't recall seeing it either.
Thanks for a reason to visit a part of the park i hadnt seen before.

A perfect way to start Winter. A lovely sunny morning walk through Walyunga N.P. to this awesome spot. Yet again AusTrackers have led me to another picturesque location that I thoroughly enjoyed. Managed to find this one without even turning on the GPS, although I had a quick look at an aerial photo of the area before leaving home and took a rough measurement from the junction of the tracks. Then just stepped it out and was surprised at the accuracy.
Picked up GeoGold from Honolulu #3 TB (TB2XPXD)
Dropped off "Castrovillari, Italy" Unite for Diabetes Travel Bug (TB1BN!K) to continue raising awareness of Diabetes around the world.

Thanks AusTrackers for another great cache, I look forward to the next one. Hopefully I will get a FTF on one of these out here as I love this area and to the south around your other caches.

(Chwiliwr team catch up log)

We had to drive north further towards the coast so Chwiliwr did a 'slight' detour to get this cache.

We thought that someone was already at the cache as there were very fresh footprints on the track that stopped near where westarted going bush but we found a blank notebook so I don't know where they were going. Joint *FTF* with Chwiliwr.

Thanks AusTrackers for the cache.

Just a note to drop off the 'GeoGold from Honolulu #3' TB (TB2XPXD) on behalf of Chwiliwr so that I can pick it up again and show it's true travels.

Couldn't believe it....thwarted again for our first `FTF'. The whole cache was bit funny really. We have had a cache to place and decided a few weeks ago that it was going to be in this park. We had intended to go up there yesterday to place but a change of plan at last minute. Then at about 3.50 checked email to find this one just published. Got as far as getting in car but didn't open the garage door. Time was too tight. Would have taken about 25mins to drive to location and then would have to find. As park shuts at 5 thought against it and decided to go today, still confident that we could be FTF.... how wrong!!!! It made the 1km walk back to the car longer than it ought to have been LOL.
Congrats to Chllwr on being FTF....
We took Second to Find certicate and the Tortoise TB. Signed log. LN.
Cheers Guys. Good exercise.

*FTF* at roughly 1030am.

Dropped the trackables into the cache.

Thanks AusTrackers for the cache.

I hate when this happens. I must have found and left the other nearby cache not long before this was published as I was using the phone app to find the other one and this one did not show up.
