Logs
I am archiving this cache due to the unfortunate lack of action taken to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, Hiddo, requesting additional time.Despite ample opportunities provided for the Cache Owner to respond, their silence leads me to the conclusion that the cache has been abandoned.In such cases, archived caches will not be unarchived, and as a result, this location is now open for the placement of a new cache by another interested party.Thanks,BalayangCommunity Reviewer - Australia
### Cache Maintenance Visit Required please.###This geocache has been brought to my attention as needing an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache. See the [GCHQ Health Score](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713) process.I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it checked by the Cache Owner. The cache owner needs to:* Take action to restore the cache or address issues such as correcting the D/T rating.* 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 Hiddo 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 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.Thank youBalayangCommunity Reviewer -Australia
Ooh took a while. Was getting dive bombed by a little bird who had a nest nearby. Couldn't make sense of the clue so just went on instinct! TFTC
Well this cache was creative with the description making us smile, we had a bit of trouble locating where GZ. Once we had we make a quick find.
This was not one of finest geocaching moments... I was able to play with peg leg though when it came to the obvious cache not so much.. finally hands on it, I knew it was time to go and have lunch!
Out and about today and I decided to check the map to see what was nearby.
I find myself with time to kill so I stopped by here for a find.
Headed NOR today for a meeting today so stopped by for a quick find.
Many thanks to Hiddo for placing and maintaining Sky Deck. I found it, I signed it, and put it back as found.

Headed north of the river to pick a few caches up. Didnt get as many as i hoped to get as there was muggles everywhere enjoying the beautiful winter sunshine. Managed to rectify a few DNFS which was good and all the others except one was found with a few that took a bit of searching. TFTC Hiddo
All clues suggest its high, but nothing that I could see... 30mins in, after every possible place, didn’t see anything.., apart from a dead wader bird
With the long weekend looming we decided to head NOR for a days caching adventures. We left the deep south nice and early to ensure we were able to target a decent amount of caches. We had fun driving from cache to cache around here! Cheers and TFTC.
G’day there Hiddo, I was in this area today and found your cache Sky Deck GC3PKGC. I added my name to the log book at 9:40 am on 26 January 2019. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!
This cache find brings our total find count to 10311. Woohoo!!

It's been a long day! [|)] Spent around 10 hours out on the bike, grabbing caches. Took the train to Stirling and then went through Tuart Hill, Joondanna, Yokine, Dianella and Inglewood before 'running express' back to Perth Underground Station to jump back on the Mandurah Line home. Got a little bit sunburnt, and had limited success at stages throughout the day... However, I still managed to end the day with 29 finds and 7 DNFs - the majority of those being at missing caches.
I swear I checked that spot first... went back for a second check and realised I missed it! Cheers Hiddo!

Found it. TFTC Hiddo. Nice hide here and very enjoyable rolling the canon balls at pegleg. The problem was trying to retrieve the balls, I had to return to the geomobile to get my Floaties. The log was full and I had one handy so I replaced it so now a new log.
Out and about with teamBastholm to grab a few more smilies TFTC
Log is full and we didn’t have one on us

Thanks for taking us here it’s pretty little spot to watch the birds. Cache in good condition
Out on the hunt for the elusive hidden creature, World Turtle, today with UMeHedgie. 41 to go.

Skyryser had the cache in hand after searching the area a bit. Tftc The-Shredder
Out for some caching with the geo daughter, one half of TH/CS. Trying for a bunch today. Took a little while but got there in the wnd.
Find 5 of 9 on a bike ride in and around Stirling. There were also three DNFs along the way.
Made this difficult for ourselves! The cryptic nature of the description fooled Mr. O. completely while Mrs. O just ignored it and made the find. A lesson there, methinks. Last written log was by fratra so not sure how to interpret Freddo's log, although I seem to recall he dislikes this kind of cache somewhat.
TFTC Hiddo!

Couldn't find anything resembling the description or the site mentioned by the last visiter.
Definitely a longer time frame needed as the places for possible hidey holes are endless! Had to get back to a hungry child though so we cut our time short.
Out caching with Thronsy.4
We couldn't find this one and couldn't spend any more time on it as we were on a short time frame...

We headed NOR this afternoon to visit our daughter and son-in-law and managed to talk them into grabbing some caches with us.
Methodical searching uncovered this.
TFTC Hiddo this is find # 3854 for us.

Im pretty sure this one has been moved or taken away as I knew exactly what I was looking for.

Instinct should have led me to a quick find but this took some time. Fortunately uninterrupted. Initial "find" turned out to be a real sprinkler head. Oh well!!! All good and TFTC
Great hiding spot and a quick find here this morning after a detour on my way to work. This area is quite nice, very green with some wildlife paddling around while I was searching. Thank you for the cache Hiddo.
Found this one with Damenator at night. It was hard to see in the dark but we found it after 5 mins or so. It ended up being right where we started looking. TFTC
TFTC Our second time looking. Our 100th find we celebrated it with our friends who introduced us to Geocaching. Thank you Pug002 (I think)
Thank you! Would have found this quicker if I had read what size cache I was looking for. Initially spotted the likely GZ, but dismissed it until I realised I was looking for a nano.
At a training course nearby today so decided to find a few caches before heading home. Lots of ducks around the pond today, I think I scared them away from me :/ Found the cache easily and hid from the traffic behind a tree while signing. TFTC.
TFTH gorgeous morning to be out and about. Lovely little area, pass it so many times in the car
Had a free hour so decided to pop along and see if I could grab this one and the nearby Sensing Something New. Came here first and although quite near a busy road, the location was muggle free and searching was not a problem. Even better I pretty much went straight to this one! Quite large for a nano too! What a lovely area it is round here; surprised there isn't a few more caches (might have to look into that A couple of cyclists came along just as I was about to replace the container but they zoomed by and then I was soon on my way. All ok here - TFTC
This evening i did some running while Philippluca took the bike so we headed to this cache after we had found another one. We searchd for some time, read the logs and had the right intension so after some time i had the luck to find it. Thanks.
Just went out to do some sport, and did this cache on the way. Found together witch JackDalton. Very obvious bit still good hidden.Took a while to find it. TFTC
Sometimes the obvious place is where you should start. Found the cache straight away but can see that it might be tricky to find at night. TFTC
Nanos can be hard or easy to find. This one was easy. Thanks for the cache Hiddo.
As sr_sparky said my GPS was off by 50m and took a bit to settle. Out caching with Sqwash before a meeting. Took me longer to roll up the log then to find the cache. TFTC
Out caching with Sqwash before a meeting. Her gps put us on the other side of the road, so parked the bikes and went for a short walk to GZ. Couldn't see much of the park in the dark.

Yayayay ! Although I wasn't the one to find, I knew knew knew it was there !!!! Hahaha tftc !!
After 20 minutes searching we returned to the first and obvious place we looked and found the cache.
Spent a while searching the wrong area but previous logs indicated we should look closer at the obvious spot we had first investigated, and sure enough there it was! Tfth!
Ahhhhhh so frustrating lol !! I'm a gardener here and I still can't find it !!!
I had a frustrating search here more than a year ago, but now decided to come back. A pair of fresh eyes and the cache was in hand in a minute. I do not understand how we missed this...

This one frustrated me to the point I had to walk away. After a few breaths I walked back and found it immediately. TFTC
GeoJ and GeoL had a fruitless search here several weeks ago and today we all came determined to make the find. It was not easy for us but it was fun We were so close to it the whole time and in fact it was GeoR's fault the find was not made sooner after declaring "it's not over there, I have checked" .... luckily GeoJ quietly made his way over to double check the area and made the discovery A tricky little hide with a lovely view. A fave point from us. TFTC!
Previous logs gave me a good idea where to prod. Three AP caches in less than 30 minutes, this MUST be my lucky day! TFTC
Looked everywhere, had a false alarm with the sprinker, power box opens but no cache!

As one of the muggle gardeners I'm very frustrated I can't find this one !! Especially when I saw ruffdawg caching and came back for a squizz ... And still no luck lol ah well maybe next time
Yay... Whilst trying to run away from other players trying to steal my loot in GameOfPhones - i popped into this one and finally was awarded with a smiley.
Good hide thanks for the cache

Dodging muggle gardeners we snuck up on this and discovered in a different spot than I would have thought. TFTC.
The description, while funny and unusual, did not help me much!!!!! Luckily the gardening muggles ignored us. I had a lucky find, before hightailing out of there as the muggle whose house we parked in front of was fretting about the garbage truck coming and not being able to get to his bin..... TFTC AP!
Armed with a solid clue from CO, I returned and searched where I had already looked. So it's either gone, or I'm blind!
This was the first cab off the rank today, after being in the area doing a spot of babysitting. And very amazed and relieved to find it within seconds of arriving!
Thanks for the cache Allied Pranksters.

Found @ 13:35!
Find #1, but hunt #2 on a day where I exploited a lift to the southern area of my 5km radius!
Struggled a little here, but that was because I missed it on the first pass of the obvious object! It was a brief search due to traffic, but I had another look and found it in a place that always seems to take me a while to find!
Good location for a cache - took some photos if the birds and pond before leaving for the next cache!

I made this fairly simple one more difficult than it needed to be. Probably because I was absolutely spent from the gruelling ride to get to this cache. Nice area, I like what they've done with the place. TFTC
