Logs
I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, Leerum & Franny, 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 Visit Required please.###
This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache.
I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it checked by the Cache Owner.
The cache owner needs to:
* Investigate the situation and either restore the cache, or address any other issues, such as correcting the D/T rating if necessary.
* 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 Leerum & Franny 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 there, and 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.

Could still be there however vegetation growth over time has made it hard to get a good look.
Weather was not great and began to rain. We left after about 15 mins of looking.

A DNF for us. We searched 10 metres around GZ but no luck. At the next GC ... looking for seals.. the GZ was spot on with my GPS. So either coords are out well and truly or perhaps muggled. But we had a win of sorts. A bloke walking the beach became so interested in GOING he downloaded the GC app onto his phone and began the process of signing up as an activity for his kids.
Day 2 heading north for a four day break, I had a few caches on my list to find. Add a smiley here. Found and logged. Thanks to the COs for maintaining these caches for our enjoyment! Cheers
What a great beach , we are camped at Milligans fir the night, so did the walk up the point to the left, absolutely stunning view. We did the ca he on the way back. An easy find TFTC
TFTC. Nice and challenging. My son swapped out a bookmark for another goodie. Plenty of goodies still inside.
Yay found it!! The kids loved the cool ammo tin! Thank you We signed the log and left a couple of swappables
Took the plastic horse, left the shell from Francios Peron national park. Great find!
Awesome container on an amazing beach, interested as to the name of the person who owned the shack
Our Billy Goat climbed the hill to see what she could see whilst I signed the log.
Do not let your mother convince you to ride your bike from green head because it is much longer than they thought and it is a corrugated rode and you get jiggled to your core. An easy find and only a little way from where the dunes start. Enjoy!
Lovely find, easily accessible. Cache in tact. Logged, signed and replaced as found. Thank you for this. We are from NSW and found ourselves in WA for the duration (and beyond) of COVID-19 travel restrictions. We have had a wonderful time in your state and love every area we have visited. Loved the history provided with the navigation prompts as we are not locals we appreciated the information. Basil/Linda Stewart (Lake Conjola, NSW)
Glad you bought us here. What a beautiful beach. Will def come here again to camp and to fish. TFTC
It started to rain so we quickly ran back to the car and was unable to find the cache
Great spot, we stayed in Milligans island camping ground for a couple of nights.
We were wandering around looking silly for a while here. Eventually we found our bearings, and the cache TFTC Leerum & Franny
We decided to spend the Easter weekend in camping in Dongara.
Brilliant area!
Thanks Leerum & Franny for the hide..

This was just an excuse for short diversion on the trip from Geraldton to Capel. It was a pleasant surprise to find a decent cache container. TNLN, TFTC
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 lokouts 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.
An easy find in a beautiful setting. Thanks go to Leerum for bringing us here,

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. Good views of the bay from here. TFTC.
What a view - being able to live there to enjoy such a spot must have been a privilege.
Great cache guys. Kids loved it. They took toys and replaced with mini car, Coles minis, mini Rey. Beautiful spot!
We discovered the great nearby camping area and decided to spend the night. We checked for caches whilst on a beach walk and, voila, we are going right past one. Great area, we can see why shacks here would have been popular. TFTC
Today we moved on from Dongara and headed further south down the coast road as we work our way slowly to Perth hoping that the weather doesn't get too cold. We are definitely not used to it after being up north for so long!
Another quick stop on our way and a chance to check out this interesting coastline. Lots of great places to camp and some great views.
This was a quick find once we made it to GZ.
Watch for the redback on the camp covering the cache.

Thanks for bringing us to this nice spot. Took a while to find as GZ was all over the place. Eventually found it. TFTC
A nice little detour on our way to Geraldton for a couple of nights. There were no TBs in the cache
TFTC Leerum this is find # 5043 for us.

Just staying overnight at the campground. Watched the sunset and grab the cache. Tftc
We loved our little drive along the coast! Just beginning to rain! Dropped off a TB great to see a great container, love these. TFTC
On our way up to the Murchison for Easter we decided to continue our cache hunt north of Jurien, happy to say we walked away with a smiley today, both on our faces and our profile, what a beautiful spot for a cache, a favourite point coming your way TFTC
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!
Lovely beach! Tommorow we will take a swim there!
