Try This Greenbelt Irymple, Victoria, Australia
By monts5 on 05-Feb-12. Waypoint GC3C5RF

I cannot see any information that suggests to me that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement - one or more of the following applies:

- Cache Owner unable to maintain cache
- No response from the cache owner.
- No cache to find or log to sign.
- It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.
- Cache has been abandoned by cache owner/cache in disrepair

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to also prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the next 28 days, just contact a reviewer (by email and include GC number in cache name) and, assuming it still meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

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

Should you wish to replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

### **MAINTENANCE REQUIRED?** ###
This cache would appear to be in need of owner intervention, therefore I am temporarily disabling it 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.

Geocache maintenance is a cache owner responsibility and includes regular visits to the cache to ensure it is in proper working order, especially when a seeker reports a problem with the cache.

Your prompt attention to any log that indicates things could be amiss will be greatly appreciated by all geocachers, have a read here: [Cache Maintenance Guidelines.](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance) The guidelines advise; **if you can't fix it straight away then Disable it till you can.** This Help Centre article tells you how it can be done; [Temporarily Disable and Enable.]( http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 )

**Please respond to this situation within 28 days - so as to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.**

If you require more time, please be sure to post a "Write Note" log (not an email) explaining the situation and indicating how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to date, or the cache will be treated as an abandoned and archived without further notice.

**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.

tried but to no avail

Despite having three teams searching high and low, we failed to locate the cache. We were later given a clue about the nature of the hide. In hindsight, the terrain rating may have thrown us off the scent a little, but our searching should still have located the container. Our thanks anyway to monts5.

An extensive search by 3 teams resulted in no luck. Would be good if the owner could check on this one please.

Searched for your cache Try This Greenbelt but couldn't find it today

Unfortunately did not find this cache today, hoped to have found both of them but we have been defeated!! Looked around for a good while, searching but unfortunately nothing :/

Attempted this one today with no luck. we believe we know what we are looking for but just didn't spot it this visit. next time will try with a previous loggers co-ords and see how we go.

Don't know if this one is still here

My son (5) and I looked but could not find it. A muggle happened to comment that the area looked a lot cleaner now that it had been cleaned up so maybe it has been removed.

We spent a bit of time looking but no luck.

We couldn't find it. Possibly hidden under tree prunings.

Think we know what to look for. Feared it has been muggled. Please check

Good spot..

Our 1st cache for 2015 @ 6.35am
TFTC

No luck for either of us here.

I think I know what I was looking for, but it seems to be buried in bark.

Found it! Good hint!

Spotted this one really quickly...
Thanks

The previous log encouraged us to revisit this one. The log in the cache is totally stuck together.

Found at 11:55 AM GAFF3 at a distance of 5 metres. We were pretty sure we knew what we had to look for, but we couldn't find anything - probably buried we thought. So we just started to rummage around and low and behold we uncovered it [^] It wasn't placed correctly and a piece from the top was off it, but we replaced it as natural as possible and left it visible
Interesting decorations on the house over the road a bit - I bet it started with just those Olympic rings
Thanks monts5.

??

nope. maybe owner should check?

No joy here for Bogonghazy and I today. We weren't put off by the previous DNF's, but a thorough search turned up zilch. Thanks for the hunt though.

Searched and searched for this one, but no luck for Sully and I today. Tried from the top of the post to the sign and the bushes, but too good for us. Thanks anyway monts5

Next time

Here from Canada, caching our way across Australia....

Had a good look for this one but unfortuately you've out smarted us.

Thanks anyways monts5

Didn't find it

We are not pros yet,

Back to caching school for me. Couldn't find this one. TFTC

My second DNF on this one. This time I was armed with a specific hint only to fail again after an extensive search.

Didn't find it due to grumpy old lady who lives next to GZ have had a few tries to sneak in but get caught each time. I must have an orange flashing light on my head!
Will keep trying to sneak in then I might get lucky in finding the cache.

Caching with team pedal pushers
On our trip from Adelaide
This is a wonderful cache

Whoa great effort

The log is fully wet ands needs to be replaced

Out with Sars12. Log too wet to write in but logged anyway. TFTC

Out with Sars12. Log too wet to write in but logged anyway. TFTC

Found quite fast. Tftc

Cache was found on its side, on top of the ground. Could not write on the log, as it was water logged. Left as found as we weren't sure of it's proper location or orientation.

this one took us a while, especially with the number of roaming muggles. eventually we were able to spot it. log sheets are damaged. TFTC

Good hide - took a few minutes to spot. SL TFTC

This one had us scratching our heads for several minutes. Found it with dewfin53. TFTC.

Nicely camouflaged cache. Thanks.

Now this was ingenious! TFTC

Found it

Found on our trip to Mildura for some rand r well Caching anyway.
took awhile to find it and a quick signing got us going to the next cache

14:58
This being our final day in Mildura, we were keen to put a few more smilies on our map. Of course we must leave a sprinkling of caches here to ensure another visit to the wonderful Sunraysia. We did try this greenbelt and it tried us! Resorting to a PAF, when we finally found the cache the satellites today had our GZ 7m north east of the cache location.

TNLN . . SL . . Thanks for the hunt monts5.

This was our 1st cache find in the caching run & we found it at 10:26
So this now makes our total find count 5775.

We are spending a week caching around Mildura with Phetlern. Today we spent a really enjoyable half day caching on our own while Phetlern attempted some of the longer multi caches that we have already done.
Looking at the map, it appears that we have finally cleared out the town grid (until more caches are placed of course.)
We DNF'd this one the last time we were here. Today the coordinates were really good, and we soon had the cache in hand. The log appears to be a few disconnected pieces of paper so we replaced the entire log sheet.
[/blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: Excellent (Under 2 metres)
Cache Condition: Container was in good shape, the log was in tatters.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Nothing.
Thanks monts5 for the hunt today.

Unable to find, Tried new cordinates, Definlety needs more info.
Could someone see if it still there and let us know?
Cheers

With better co-ordinates it was a much more successful mission. The log is a little worn. Thanks.

Had searched everywhere for this on previous occasions with no luck. Put in the updated numbers from a previous log & found very easily! Found with Kev the Sidekick. TFTC, very sneaky.

The hint made sense once we located the cache. The log book is falling to bits. Thanks monts5 for placing this cache.

Greynomads - Bill and Diana TFTC TNLN SL

Found with Jraz!

On a camping trip at Hattah Lakes with Starruby and finding my first caches. Was going to use the name Scissorman, and signed the log as such, but it wasn't available when I joined up later, so Spartan it is!

I was looking at the cache, but had no idea it was it, until Starruby picked it up and took out the log! Very Clever. TFTC

Found on a caching jaunt with Scissorman, with the ladies remaining at camp looking after the kids!

We had a look around but couldn't seem to spy it. Then I saw the now obvious hide which didn't belong in the picture. Scissorman, new to caching, was surprised, having passed over it moments earlier.

Coords were a little out, though perhaps the cache has crept. TFTC

We searched all sorts of places for this one, high low, in out, anything that looked remotely like a hiding spot. Finally put in the updated decimal minutes from a previous log and spotted the neat hide from a certain angle. Thanks for a good search.

A clever hide. The log is a little worse for wear. Found with Roffer & F. TFTC.

Second try worked, but only just

Had to go back for daunts when couldn't locate, caddy 07 grabbed just as we bout to call it GOYA

Found on 2nd try with a mob.

Beginners came with very experienced daunts and high hopes, but no luck.

Found it yay! well me mate did TFTC!!

**Very Late Log** I found a file of old found logs from an old gps on the harddrive of a now defunct laptop. If you are unhappy that I've logged this so late, delete the log, you won't hurt my feelings.

This was a trip to Mildura to attend an event on invitation from a Mildura family who came to our 2012 JLWE event earlier in the month. I took the trip with Skippy and Flipper & Co and Liz & Bruce also came along. We cached along the route both to MIldura and back home to Adelaide over the two day weekend. This cache was part of those travels.

I made no specific note about your cache, but thank you for placing it and keeping it online for us to find.

A fine day in Mildura so we spent the morning caching with friends Skippy and SEMIK before they headed back to Adelaide - in the afternoon we managed to get a few more. Some great hides, very sneaky making for a most enjoyable caching day. We found .282 and .636 had us closer to gz. We spent quite a long time admiring the wheely good fence across the road. Skippy particularly liked his counterparts decorating part of the fence.
Thanks to monts5.

Quite hard as the coordinates are out and cause you to look in the 'wrong' spot.

Thanks again for a friend's guided tour No.2.TFTC monts5 it was quite a challenge but simple if you know where you're looking.

After three attempts we have managed to find it. Like previously mentioned we can't believe we missed it till now..... And yes the log sheet was extremely tricky to remove. TFTC

have tried this one three times before found today how simple they can be tftc

Found today very quickly. Not shore how we all could have missed this one. The last visit we looked for a long time with a lot of eyes and had no luck. The coordinates are close. Within 5 metres. Dropped some TBs in for a visit.

Very easy to find, extremely difficult to get the log book out of the container.

Btw the coordinates are correct, but impossible to remove logbook.

We have just sent a message to the CO of this cache, to try and get an answer to see if the coords are correct and what relevance the HINT has.
We are looking at making a trip up this way to do this cache and others in the area, so we are hoping for an answer.
Plus, it is not really polite to ignore requests by cachers to check coords, it does not take long to do so.
Can't wait to catch up with some of the local cachers when we come up.
Cheers

Latest Update: 30/4
Still no reply from the CO, which we find is pretty rude, but we will keep trying.

Our 1st DNF today.
Adding another DNF to the cache count.
We spent quite some time here today but couldn't locate the cache.
Ian and Penny

GZ for us was 1 meter to the rear of the left edge of the sign.
Scoured everywhere.

Way too hard for us.

Could not find even when with Doheng & GUIO .

Hint doesn't ssem to help or be relevant for the area. Looked up to 50mtrs in all directions from GZ.

Team NKJ

We have been back for a look again. Still no luck. 6 sets of eyes. 3 teams of experienced caches. How good are the coordinates. Can you please check.

I realise that with a three and a half star difficulty that this is not going to be an easy cache to find. But with seven other DNF's and no finds, the question needs to be asked has the cache been muggled before it has been found, are the co-ords correct. I spoke with one of the cacher's who logged a DNF and they have returned more than once so how many visit's has this cache site really had? Could the owner please check that the cache is still in place and waiting to be found and perhaps place a log to indicate that all is good.

I was determined to find this one, after seeing the dnfs, but I have just joined the club. It needs to be checked out.

searched every where the clue didn't make any sense please can you expand on this

Really well hidden? or Not.

Second look and after half an hour, still no luck. Could you please confirm the coords are correct and maybe expand the description? Thanks

Looked & could not see. Didn't spend a long time though.

Tried for ftf. Thoroughly searched GZ with no luck. broadened search and still no luck. Not quite sure what the hint is talking about.

Out to find a FTF but no good. Looked in the dark for some time. Looked in all the spots that i could find. Then looked at the hint. Had a look at those spots but still no good. I will keep an eye on this one and try again. Great to see some new caches in town. Brian.
