###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###
----------
I notice from one or more log entries that this cache would seem to be in need of some help - **there appears to be a need for owner intervention.**
Therefore, the cache is being temporarily disabling so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.
The guidelines indicated that periodic 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) I cannot see any log that indicates a recent visit by the CO to this cache.
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 **28th September,** 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 28th September). 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, then a few weeks from today, when I next look at the cache page, it is likely that I will unfortunately have to de-list (Archive) the cache 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 information/advice posted above.

No one has found in a very long time. Previous findets have also mentioned when found there was no container just a log laying on the ground. Please go out and check it and replace or archive
Searched everywhere possible for a 20 metre radius, and could find nothing. Cache owner may need to check this cache out
Like previous finders we found the ziplock bag on the ground so once again placed back in the right spot. TFTC
It is not in a tin anymore was not even in a bag. Found a ziplock in the bush and put it in its location. Needs some attention
Found the log on the ground. It was not in a container, nor a plastic bag. Signed the log and put it where I thought the cache would have been.
Found it today, however the only remains of the cache are a plastic bag and a wet log. TFTC!
Found it! Next time we are here we will replace it with a new log/pencil... Not in a container and in bad condition.
A quick stop on the way back home after being camped at Chichester for the Long Weekend.
Cheers

With Hoojar, a quick stop on the way back home after being camped at Chichester for the Long Weekend. TFTC
As previous no container present, but placed back where antigravitational device still resides. TFTC
We found the cache just barely! Cache needs a desperate update in log book and cache container!
Searched around GZ with no luck, wasn't sure what the hint meant either.
Looked back at previous logs to see that the original container has gone.
Eventually found the log on the ground near a ziplock bag so I placed it in the bag and put it back near where I think the cache is meant to be.

Found while on a canoe trip on the William river. I didn't tho have a working pen after it got soaked by the river. Easy find tftc

Today our destination was Gloucester/Copeland, we took a route far from the most direct, via Dungog and Monkerai, to fill in some gaps in our map. Threatening poor weather had us packing raincoats and spare clothes, but in the end had a beautiful fine day, and only one DNF all day....
What a dicey bridge..... Good to see some work is being done. Quick find in the obvious spot. TFTC PD186

Camping with the kids for the weekend and we nabbed a cache and passed some kids played Pokemon go.
Found it 09/07/16, not sure what the clue has to do with it, that threw me off a bit, should've followed the marker earlier
On our way to a overnight cache camping event at the Barrington Tops, We stopped for this cache along the way , we liked the little bridges we walked across from the nearby park . The cache container is not very kid friendly . Thanks for the cache PD186 tnln sl

Found and signed log
Not sure cache is the original, log paper on ground 90% of log contained in current thing.
Will not hold up to weather.
Owner needs to check

I left work at a reasonable time and set off on a huge detour to clean up a bunch of caches from Paterson to Clarence Town and back home. It took a bit less then three and a half hours to find the eleven caches and get home.
This was my eighth cache for the day. I drove past this on my way to Iggy farm, so I knew there was a good spot to park right next to the cache. Unfortunately, there was only a log, no container. I did not have anything with me, so I Improvised something out of what was lying around on the ground. It does not seal, but will stop it from blowing away.
Thanks for the interesting history and cache!

Took a little longer than i thought as there was no anti gravitational attachment. But the cache is there. Signed and replaced. TFTC!
This was our 5th cache for today. We pulled up right next to GZ & made a quick find. We signed the log & replaced. We really liked this bridge, it was very interesting. There was even some young kids climbing on the outside of it. ". Their bave". Thanks for bringing us here & TFTC.
2nd in Australia
We were on a orientation tour and had a stop at the camping area. Easy to find. TFTC

It was fascinating to read the plaque, and find out about the JohnsTon the bridge was named for. And the cache was an easy find.

This was an easy find as we headed out of town. Canary noticed there was a spelling mistake in the cache name, so please change the title before he blows a gasket! Thanks
The fourteenth cache on my northern road trip with bikerbuddy and Toriaz.
A nice quick find, although we weren't sure why the name is spelt wrong.

I turned up in the picinic area to find it full of working muggles, not working !!
Must be lunchtime
I hoped the cache was hidden far enough away to avoid them.
It was !!
Down the muddy path and across the small footbridge I wandered.
The footbridge had been underwater recently [:o]
The track took me to the Brig O johnson
A proper bridge, and as the cache notes informed me, an olde bridge
The cache was an easy find nearby [^]
TFTC and history.

I have driven over this bridge by car, ridden over it on a bike, paddled under it in a kayak, and now found a cache at it. Life is complete.
Found but the cache log is in need of attention as the log is in a 100 bits .
I have put a new piece of water proof paper as a new log.

Homeward bound from the QLD MEGA Event and stopping off at Clarence Town for a break. A straight forward find. TNLN,SL. Visited some TB's. TFTC PD186.
Note to CO: The log is in pieces and could do with a replacement.

Think I found this a couple of years ago but forgot to log. Found it today anyway. TFTC.
a quick find whilst staying in the area after bringing my mother-in-law home. tftc
Found while converting a couple of muggler friends into happy geocachers. It was a warm afternoon and I would have enjoyed joining the youngsters splashing around in the water under the bridge.
