If there are components or remnants of the cache, please return to the GZ and collect the cache (or remnants). We don't want to litter our environment with Georubbish.

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

----------

I've noticed this cache is carrying a maintenance log which really does need to be addressed by the cache owner.

The guidelines indicated that regular visits to check on the cache, as well as prompt attention to any logs that indicate there is a problem, are part of the [**cache owners responsibilities.**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance) If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to [**Disable it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=235) - I have Disabled it for you this time.

**Can you please respond to this situation (or indicated your intention) by 20th July,** so others know exactly what is happening with this cache?

You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:

- Repair and/or Replace your cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the praises.

- If you don't plan on fixing it up then please [**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.

- If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (by 20th July). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, it is likely that I will need to Archive it on the basis that it has been abandoned. Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the instructions posted above.

We spent a long time looking for this micro, even widening our search quite a long way. Again it has not been found for two years, so might be time to let it go. We did enjoy our walk to the pump station, which is in good order. The frogs were happy too!

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

No luck

Actually not so much DNF as didn't get to it!! Too wet underfoot after all the rain and it started raining as we were enroute. Maybe next time. TFTC

Pleasant walk in scenic area. TFTC.

Good one to find

Easyy

Just wanted to ask what does GZ stand for?

Startled a few Roos near GZ. scenic location on the banks of the lagoon

Cache kindly fixed by another cacher. I have thanked them personally for this. Cheers and good to go.

A day out picking up leftover Cobram Barooga caches. Quick find. Tftc

[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

I like it

Another one of the list

Victorian Murray River region caching weekend 2015. I walked along to this one and was impressed to see the re-use of old stuff here. A nice remote spot not to far from the real world.

Thanks.

here last week. Have replaced zip bag and container;)

Wow! I am so glad I went for a walk. If the creek was full today; some massive trees along the way. I tried to take a few shortcuts But always came to some soggy ground. Stay on the high side;) TFTC.

Up here on a birding trip and mooching around in between times checking out the birding and the neighbourhood. What a great area and so close to town. Thanks for your efforts to show off the area, have seen more than ever before and really appreciate it

Found it! Lid is broken.

A bit tricky

Container lid broken. Found on ground and replaced it where we thought it should go

After a long Search. Found on the ground. Replaced where we thought it should go. Lid broken

One that beat me today....

Had my non caching son with me who had a good look as well, but with 2 sets of eyes, we still missed it.

Thanks anyway Blacklegend.....

Lots of long grass - need to be very careful

Today was probably the last chance for a trip over to Cobram before the hot weather hits. A couple of puzzles were solved and a plan was hatched.

The Prado managed to get to within 140m of GZ before recent rain stopped out progress. A short walk along good track then very long grass to GZ.

Thank you for the cache Blacklegend.
#2983rd @ 1121hrs.

Good walk new to barooga really like these caches

I'm glad the terrain was not wet. I reached this cache via the back route which had lots of logs across the path I took. I found a much better route to walk out. TFTC

TFTC

See the shed when playing golf and came back leather with Andrew & Trebortseb.

Lived here and golfed here for years and did not know these relics existed! Thanks for the adventure.

This was a little tougher getting through all the fallen timber, losing the track into the water, and then refinding it on the other side.
Once at GZ, it was a quick find in exactly the spot I would've hidden it.
Thanks for another piece of history Marshy

Nice walk through the bush over all the fallen trees, think your meant to take the foot path.

Do this one with GC2YO6D, it will save doubling up the track.
We did this one 2nd & covered unnecessary terriotory .
But we got to GZ & GPS sent us over a large area, but finally found it.
Me thinks problem coz of clouds n trees.
On ya legend.

Parked my car on the side street and strolled in to find the cache. The weather was very pleasant so it was an extremely nice walk. SL TFTC

Today is our last day of caching in this area, we are heading from Tocumwal to Cobram & return.
Drove our 4x4 along the road to the cache & on to the pump station.
Thanks Blacklegend

From the nearby Lagoon cache it wasn't too far to stroll to the Pump
Assuming the trail that I was following led there [:o]
It did and I poked around the maze of pipes to find me a cache
What a great stroll along the creek [^]
TFTC.

Found by Garrottor TFTC

Took a little while to find as GPS was having a moment.

The grab was a little reminiscent of the 80's Flash Gorden feature film.

Walking was abut muddy and slippery, but negotiated without incident, and to the accompaniment of lots of common froglets croaking heartily. Another easy find TFTC

Find number 2 of 37 for the day with Chaplain Mike around the Tocumwal/Barooga area. Always nice to retrieve a cache under your partner's nose when they've already had a "boy look". SL TNLN TFTC!

Find 2 of 38 with Smart Sassy Siren for the day, looking to complete a couple of milestones, including Tigersden's 25 in a day Challenge, Smart Sassy Siren's 200th and Chaplain Mike's 250th. This is part two of the first walk for the day - nothing like slippin' nad sliddin' in the mud. TFTC SL

Continued on the walk along the track for another easy find at 3:50pm. The lagoon has some water in and doesn't look too bad at present.
TNLN
thanks blacklegend

After the Lagoon we walked further in to the Pump Station. We were all checking out the pipes, but Chewin' was the one to grab the cache.
Nice stroll into GZ.
Thanks, Robmc.

# 548. Found on a day touring with Robmc, Chewinprickles and Purpledreamer. The three of us continued onto the pump station where Chewin' managed to locate the cache after a short search by all of us. Thanks BL

Interesting place too. Didn't look around perhaps as much as we should have but enjoyed the short walk in although we could have driven apparently.
Thanks again Blacklegend

#649 on day 175 of continuous caching after a small day yesterday this was set to be a bigger day after going to Yarrawonga MacDonald and finding their WiFi to be a little lacking I asked one of the employees there and he told me about a Laundromat that had a WiFi hot spot so off i went and collected a few more geocaches for the gps and started to work my way toward the days goal of at least 50 and yes I got there and added 1 for good measure.

51 of 51 for the day and this was my biggest day yet. What an interesting hide this one my GPS lied and I had to spend a little longer than I really wanted to spend looking for it but alas I came up trumps again and this made it my 33 Blacklegend find for the day and now have found 45 of you wonderfully hidden caches. Only about 70 to go but some of them don't exist any more.

Blacklegend my hat goes of to you for you wonderful efforts in the cache pages and the hides will defiantly be returning to the area and find some more of the remaining cache you have hidden for us to find.

an even better location and a great little hide - Tom (8) is enjoying his first day of geocaching.

Little bits of history everywhere - fantastic story - tftc Blacklegend

Was in the 4wd today so was able to drive right up to it.
TFTC.

#2409 What the heck - decided to continue onto this cache regardless of the inappropriate footwear . Had an interesting walk up the incline with thongs! Dad spotted the container and had to use some bark to de-web and retrieve. Thanks for the cache Blacklegend

I must have approached from the right direction, because I could see the cache from 20m away. Just needed my glasses to sign the log

Rated: for Overall Experience

Found and logged at 9:10, Spending a few days caching along the Murray
I thought about driving down the track but decided I needed the exersise
Thanks Blacklegend

We were on our way to this cache and got to within about 20 metres and Geonan decides to start bolting in the direction of the pointer and then...down she went. We all started to fall to the ground in fits of laughter.She got tangled in the long green grass and fell up hill. A perfect landing really.She came away uninjured luckly. Geodaughter found the cache and we signed the log and off we went. TFTC

# 4 / 24 on a Cob / Toc night assault with Haveanez.

I remember walking past this place a few years ago, mainly because of what the odd materials the fence is made up of. Big Ez made short work of the find then skillfully negotiated the 4x4 out past the mud hole to continue the nights run.

TNLN, TFTC, Cheers.

Found this one with DJ Rascal after first grabbing Bullianginya Lagoon Cache. Glad we didnt get stuck tonight - quite a bit of water around, and mud!
Came up with the cache pretty quickly and headed off for the next. Nice spot for a cache - thanks BL. TNLN SL. Cheers.

Walked in from the other one. Thought I was looking for something bigger, but eventually zeroed in on it. Thanks. It looks like not too long ago, the water was MUCH higher around here!

Reperio at 0945. After stopping by 'Bullanginya Lagoon' a little further up the track, it was on too this one, and if I thought the first part of the track was muddy, then the second was just as muddy if not muddier. Once there though, there was only a couple of spots the cache could be, and found it in the second spot.

Gratias BL.

micheena - Everything as was before. Sometimes nothing changes.

Another quick find after the football this morning.In a nice area.
TFTC Blacklegend

Wow Nice little place. TFTC

A slippery trip in but the cache was quickly found, phew!

A bit of a slip & slide to get to this one, always good fun!

Found on the weekend of the birthday bash for Blacklegend.
Many thanks for the hide.
TNLN...........SL.

A slippery trip to GZ and the convoy but get there we did.

A brief search located the cache and wee all signed and stamped the log book together.

Many thanks to Blacklegend.

A uick drive by and the cache was in hand. Thanks Blacklegend. Found with the Farmers 5, and Earthbound Control TFTH...SL....TNLN

TFTC, tricky hide, had to look several times,found with Roostaman, Fred6603, and Hinco

The Chief was busy searching as the Walenators and Farmers 5 turned up to help. Just as the Chief found it! TFTC

Sorry its taken so long to log the cache, the dog really did eat my note book ripped it to pieces we picked up all the bits and put it away in the cupboard and forgot about it. Today after spending ages to sticky tape it back together I can now start logging, the ones I can still read anyway, the others will have to wait to we get back and check the log books.
This cache we found with Team Crackers after the event, a joint FTF.
Thanks Blacklegend,
Regards Mr. Coffee and the Coffee Clan

After finding the nearby Bullanginya lagoon the Coffee mobile had no trouble getting close to this one. It took longer than expected to find this tricky cache but we were rewarded with another joint FTF in an interesting and unusual location.
Thanks once more Blacklegend

*STF* by Quasar3671 and I, whilst here for BlackLegends Birthday Bush Bash Bonanza, well done Coffee and Crackers teams for the FTF.. Quasar make the find on this whilst I was about a step and a half behind.. Find #1261

Found with Spaldem during 'Blacklegend's Bush Birthday Bash' event held on the Saturday in Barooga. I wasn't sure about the track so parked the car at the enatrance and we walked to GZ. As it turns out it looked worse than it was and we could've easily driven the 4WD all the way. It was good to walk to a cache for a change though. A short hunt at GZ and the cache was found and log signed. Thanks for the hide Blacklegend.

Found with Roostaman, Hinklenator and Hinco. After finding Bullanginya Lagoon we continued on our moonlight/torchlight stroll. Must have been using my painted on eyes as I looked in the spot 3 times before finally spotting it.

Thanks Blacklegend.

TFTC *FDF* Found with Hinklenator Roostaman and Fred6603 this one was a bit harder to find in the dark, well camouflaged under torch light.
