Muggled to many times so this one has to go.

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED**###
This cache is carrying one or more logs which suggest some attention by the cache owner is needed.

The guidelines advise that the CO should make occasional visits to check on the cache as well as promptly address any logs that indicate that the cache requires some attention. If you can not attend to the issue promptly, then you need to Disable the cache - I have disabled it this time.

Please respond to this situation (or indicated your intentions including a date) by **22nd September**, otherwise it will be necessary to withdraw the cache from the Active listing. The [Geocache Maintenance guideline](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance) explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported.

**And don't forget,** once you have addressed the issue, post both an "Owner Maintenance" log, see here; [Removing the Needs Maintenance Icon](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and an "Enable Listing" log, see here; [Temporarily Disable and Enable ](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) to get your cache up and running again.

Unfortunately a DNF but the shoe is safe.

Couldnt find a container but found a shoe at ground zero.

Didn't find. Think it's gone missing Unfortunately didn't read activity prior to doing cache...

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Done with autumntree.

We couldn't find this one GPS looks like it was stop on with the usual hiding place at the location but alas no containers and no sign of the cache. We had dug around in the leaf litter in there as well.

In Ballarat for the weekend (Geokids have Monday off as well). came to the surrounds then in town of Creswick. We have had a great day out with Autumntree getting her 1000 th cache along the way.

Heading home today and drive past Lal Lal turn off all the time.

Found while in this area. TFTC

Interesting cache! TFTC .... got back to the car and found a heap of wasps taking interest in the front of my car, they even tried to venture in when we opened the car door. Little blighters!

Very hot day! Glad to find this one after failing to find the multi cache in the area!
Nice little spot.

Thanks!

TFTC - this is a lovely spot. The waterfalls are gorgeous and worth the brief detour from the main road. Should have brought the fly repellent with us!

Found while bbqing in the area. Fav point for camo TFTC

Thanks stashaa. This one was great for our souls! The falls are very loud and impressive today... What a great day to visit. log is slightly damp but still fine to sign. Little miss Plow was very happy to make this find. Now off to the playground to tire out the kids and have some lunch.

Nice easy find. Beautiful viewing of the falls on the way.

Liked the container. TFTH

With a milestone to reach and an event to attend we headed this way for the day with GemmaSistema, becca86 & boo09. A great day with some great finds. TFTC!

A great day had exploring the area with neisha07, boo09 & GemmaSistema after attending the nearby event. A lot of fun! TFTC!

With a souvenir available for a Multi find, an event at a scenic location and 1000+1500 milestones for my daughter and myself respectively (she had earmarked the nearby Miners Right), it was a no brainer that we travel the almost 1.5hr trip today.
We nabbed this one with a group shortly after the event. TFTC

**Found whilst House Sitting in Clunes**... Beautiful little town...

Out and about letting my GPS be my guide...

Great to see water over the falls too...

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment stashaa...

Cool TFTC

It was up the the Lal Lal falls today for an HQ Duck Race event that I had planned for some time. It was a great excuse to visit this location that I had never been to before and to have a meet and great among many cachers from different parts. It was very, very cold but the views and the company were worth the trip outside. This was a quick find for us today. Signed and replaced as found.

**Thanks for this trad cache, stashaa** [^]
**Cache container in urgent need for CO TLC, lid being eaten by something, log in good condition**
**Took Nothing, Left signature**

Went to Lal Lal Falls today for a Duck TB event, then onto to my brother in law's place in Ballarat to visit a sick nephew. This was the 2nd of 8 finds for the day.
During the event, Pam and I snuck off to do this one.
After scratching around for a bit, it was found, in good condition.
We came by again here later with a bunch of others, on our way to another cache.
**Thanks for placing this cache stashaa**

Found with the Sims. Great meeting you all. tftc

Almost exactly five months ago we came here but missed out: There was no water in the falls, and there was no cache in the hidey-hole. We knew we'd come back one day to rectify this situation. Today was the day, and we are very glad we can finally claim a smilie on the interesting hide and one on having seen and heard the water coming down the falls, with a vengeance.
Thank you for bringing us here twice, and for replacing the cache in the mean time!

Great spot, thanks for bringing me here today. Thanks stashaa.

found on a group assault after an event nearby. TFTC

Running Mega late for the Event cache here today because of car troubles we finally arrived just as everyone was leaving. So we had this cache all to ourselves as everyone had already completed it already.
Once we walked to GZ a quick and easy find greeted us. With a very interesting camo. While Singing the log a fellow cacher also joined us as they were returning from completing another cache.
All was returned and found and thank you Stashaa for placing the cache

Nice find

A quick find while at the Ducks at the falls event today.

At the Lal Lal duck event today, so doing all the nearby caches too. Wandered up to this cache and a group of cachers already had the log out and were signing it, so they happily added my name. A great location. TFTC.

So grateful to be here at the falls during Lal Lal duck event today, heaps of waterfalls!
Thanks stashaa

Yay, finally able to make this into a smile, was great to get back, and also see the falls with water, this is such a lovely area, thanks for such an interesting and amusing cache.

Haha very good !

Cool

Haha made me laugh!

Argh don't kick around the bush with this one

Taking on the back roads around Ballarat on another glorious autumn day. Another great geocache adventure. Its been a while since we ventured out this way, pity there was no water. Who would think that it would be dry in May !!!

TFTC TNLN

Lots of fun navigating with the dog on the lead... Not

Took a bit of searching, though that was because a 10y.o. was incharge of the gps. Not too far off the beaten track.

Found with Scouts on our Post Jamboree camp. TFTC

Third time lucky!
I made a trip to Lal Lal with the sole intention of getting this cache. Clean pair of heels to GZ, where I stepped up to the cache.
Thanks for replacing it, stashaa.

Cache has been replaced. Please note that the container is not the same as in the discription. Happy caching.

After a run of DNF's, I believe that this needs to be checked...

Found several likely spots at the gz but no cache.

We were here today to try and get both the nearby earthcache and this hide. Unfortunately, six pairs of eyes did not manage to find either this cache or any water in the falls.

was at the nearby earth cache with a group and thought we would collect this one whilst we were here however we couldnt find it at all. We even widened our search by still was empty handed

Was a DNF for us today, maybe it was because it was so hot, and maybe we didn't have our caching eyes on properly, we will be back to try again soon, it is a beautiful area. Thanks

Couldn't find this cache. The compass said we were pretty much on top of it, though it eluded us.

I failed here more than 2 years ago, and I failed again today. GZ seems pretty obvious, but still no smilie for me. I hope it hasn't gone missing again, as it was just recently replaced.
Thanks for the hunt, stashaa - it's still a great area for a stroll, even with no water at the waterfall today. A wonderful piece of Australian bushland here.

Cache has been replaced and ready to be found again.

Nice, quick, easy find. Little bit of water running at the falls. Thanks for the cache Stashaa.

Disabled until further notice.

Didnt find today

This one is down in the gorge if you want it you cocksucking cunts

I think this one has been muggled.

Pretty sure where it was supposed to be but it wasn't. I'll be back again

Woohoo another one bites the dust. Been decades since we were in this area still as beautiful as ever
TFTC

A nice quick find, which was good, as it was super cold with the wind blowing straight across the paddocks. Thanks for bringing us here, another place we've never been, and probably wouldn't have if not for caching. No water over the falls though, which I was surprised about, given the rain this morning. Thanks for the hide and bringing us here.

One of the reasons we cache, to go and see places may havr o didn't know existed. This is one of them. Great spot and view for a cache.

Nice spot

Tftf

Dog sitting duties this weekend so decided to clear up a few caches that I have been meaning to do for quite some time and let Tess have a few walks in the bush as I slowly creep towards the next milestone. I love travelling these backroads as you never know where you will end up and what you will see. Great co ords made this an enjoyable walk and a quick find. Absolutely freezing here today with a wind chill factor of about minus 3.LOL. No water coming over the falls but enjoyed the walk. Thanks stashaa

A quick find late in the evening.... Very picturesque even though the falls aren't falling!

Nice views in the afternoon, saw a big red fox and a lot of kangaroos on the way in. Thanks

A very impressive gorge that seems to start out of nowhere! The falls were totally dry today but we would love to see them in full flow one day. There were fresh flowers by the marker for the people that died 20 years ago in the rockfall....nice to see they are still remembered and loved.
TFTC

Found it! Falls were dry today but was a good bbq spot to return to

Nicely placed cache, fairly easy to find

Found,nice spot,didn't bring a pen though 17 February 2015

Find # 2036 @ 1040 H

Heading off to Ballan for the days event, I decided to go to an area out of Ballarat that I haven't visited before.

Wow what a view, this is a much better view of the falls rather than the small platform lower down.
Sadly the falls were not turned on today so ill have to come back to see them in action.

when I headed of to GZ I had to make it a quick grab as there was a couple of muggles coming up my way. and thankfully the co ords were smack on and allowing me to make the grab.

TFTC stashaa

Found with the 2 youngest of our group. We haven't been here for years and was amazed to see how different it is now. A nice little walk and a great viewing area. TFTC Stashaa

Had never been to this area before, so I was looking forward to this all day. There was a lot more water running today than I expected. A very rewarding cache. TFTC stashaa.

❤️

It was an ideal time to visit today. The sun was shining, the waterfall was flowing and we had the track to ourselves.
I have always loved the beauty of waterfalls and this one was impressive too. We saw the sad marker located behind a fence that commemorates the tragic accident that occurred here.
Thanks to stashaa for bringing us to this wonderful location and for the cache.

Amazing location, TFTC

Falls looked really good, took some really good photos

Off the beaten track but eventually we found it

Out adventuring this morning with gummiebear310, accounts and my two geokids (ages 3 & 5). Once the GPS settled it was a nice easy find by master 3. We were lucky to come today as we have had two weeks of rain so the falls we're fabulous today! Thanks

Find #2
Found after a short drive from my house
Found it with my mum and her friend Cathy

Found with Stitchgirl gr8 views

Lovely place for a picnic, but perhaps when the rain eases and so I'll wait til the spring. Another stashaa cache. I can cross off the list, and no nano and no trickery! Leaves me only one more active cache to get, in Bacchus Marsh, reckon that's where we might head tomorrow! TNLN TFTC stashaa.

Nice walk passed a massive heap of roos! Quick find in usual spoy on dusk. Tftc

A nice walk and a quick find.
Unfortunately the falls weren't flowing today . Never the less, a pleasant area.
Tftc cheers

Great little walk! Easy find. Thanks!

I went out to the Falls today. I rode my bike from my house. I'm a local but I didn't find it. My dad and I (13) looked around for about an hour but couldn't find it. Could I please have another clue. I just started this and haven't found my first cache yet. :/

Found with Geobots and Oz_DKD
On a day out for Andrews Birthday.
Fantastic trees in this area.
TFTC

Found by the-geobots, 23/3/14 - TFTC.

A great location. TFTC

Nice spot. Will return when there is some water running.

Fun find in a nice area.

Enjoyed the walk and the von Geurard view. An easy find but not a drop of water over the falls today TFTC stashaa

Checked this one today and yes it had gone so have replaced with a new one. Cache in its place and ready to be found again.

Found GZ quickly, but the cache proved too elusive despite a lengthy search in the rain.
TFTH.
(Maybe the people who were following krankitkiwi were not real geocachers after all :-/.)

Well this was a dash to the cache l, as the 'we are not caching family' are on the path! Great view, walked to get a good photo thanks

In a bit of a hurry, gps/phone battery going flat

I have been coming to this area for over 30 years orienteering but this is the first time I've actually been to the falls. And they are flowing well today. Thanks for bringing me here stashaa.

The most junior member of the Glanville Girls found this one today with Beckster22 and Tomstache. Thanks for the hide stashaa

Fantastic view of the falls on the way to this cache. Lovely place.
