Logs
I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, CreightonCrew, requesting additional time.
An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.
Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

###Cache Maintenance Visit Required please.###
This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache.
I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it checked by the Cache Owner.
The cache owner needs to:
* Investigate the situation and either restore the cache, or address any other issues, such as correcting the D/T rating if necessary.
* 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 CreightonCrew 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 there, and 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 you

Tftc. Must be well cammo. A very unfriendly person lives in the place behind the bus stop. Left to avoid confrontation.
Spent a while here looking but did not come up with anything, the home occupier behind was not friendly so we decided to give it a miss
Sad to say we missed this one. Spent lots of time going high & low. Lunch was calling so grumbling tummy’s won’t. Thanks anyway.
Geodaughter saw this one but was to scared to touch it. Great hide, very imaginative. Geodad and mum with geo son still in the car with his phone.

Searched everywhere but could not find. Flicked back through previous finds to try and get some clues but still couldn’t find! Maybe next time
Outnabout hoping for a find but not for us today. 20 favourites so it must be a goody. Someone had mistakenly used the bus stop as a toilet which was rather unpleasant and reduced our search time.
Tricky! Well done Log needs replacing - only a couple of teeny places left to scratch initials. Thanks for placing this - made me smile
What better way to spend a long weekend than packing up the car and heading off on a road trip? We made plans to meander our way to Northam and camp there overnight before setting sail for home. This was one of the caches we had targeted for the day and we also had some GCA caches, Waymarks and Adventure Labs on the radar. Cheers and TFTC.
G’day there CreightonCrew, I was in this area today and found your cache Do the bus stop (if you can remember how). GC3TEC0. I added my name to the log book at 10:38 am on 27 February 2021. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!

With only two weeks until I relocate to the east coast for work, it was time to get out and see some of WA. I borrowed a car for the weekend and planned a micro-adventure. Mundaring, York, Northam, and overnight in Toodyay. Tomorrow I'll visit New Norcia before heading back to Rockingham.
I spent a few hours and quite some money in York, doing my bit to bring my tourist dollar into the local community
Thank you for the cache

From reading previous logs, was looking for an out of the ordinary container. Found it but did poke with stick first!!! Tftc!
Headed out to York to spend the day with BJA3 doing what we love to do - caching. Picked up over 30 finds today with only 2 DNF's & a couple of Lab's as well .
The geowife found this one quite quickly but was unsure at first whether she should touch it .
TFTC CreightonCrew and bringing us to this spot!

Quick park and find with geoson on L plates to York to see my parents in the caravan park nearby.
Had a look for this one the previous day so after reading logs the previous night, had a better idea of what to look for. Found very quickly this time round. Heard about these cache containers but this is the first time we’ve found one. A fav from us. TFTC
Found
Ewww was the first impression nearly over looked it
Cheers for the hide

We didn't have any luck here a couple of days ago. Sought a hint around the campfire at Kwolyin and returned to day on the way home and located the sneaky hide.
TFTC CreightonCrew this is find # 9681 for us.

Hi there CreightonCrew. I was out with Mistraluna for a couple of planned days of Geocaching around the FOTT trail near York. We had both worked out finals for all caches and using the Nuvi and both GPS's, all caches were found quickly - and the containers and logs are in good condition. TN, LN, SL. Thanks to CreightonCrew for this cache - our find 8311
Last stop of the day as we head back to camp. Nice hide. Geoson missed it at first but on his second look came up trumps. Tftc
After a rather unpleasant experience at one of the caches we tried for this morning, it was far more enjoyable to come and find this one along some country roads that I don't think I have ever travelled before. Super quick find by Mr Luna Maya at this one. Interesting construction. Can't remember exactly how to do the Bus Stop, but will check it out on youtube - should be good for a laugh. From here we continued trundling along from one cache to the next, following our noses, sniffing out smileys. We met up with another caching team for a few joint finds around York before grabbing pub lunch and then worked our way back towards Northam for the end of the race and closing of the event. Congrats to all the winners - sounds like they had fun, but then again, so did we. Great day all the way around. Thanks for adding to the adventure CreightonCrew.
A quorum of the Fott was here so we are retrospectively claiming the find. If that's an issue let us know.
WAGB19 weekend! Had driven out to Northam this morning and after checking out the event location & registering, I then headed out for a drive picking up some caches between Northam and York, with some time then spent in York itself. Was a lovely day weather-wise and caching-wise This was one of the caches I stopped off at. Parked the 4WD up which blocked out most of the shelter so regardless of any muggles I could pretty much search in peace, lol. Had an idea what I'd be looking for here and was pleased to make a nice quick find of what I expected All good here, TFTC
Out and about with SVKR_WA, AlliedOz and Kyzabra during WAGB19 picking up the odd smilie here and there. A great day with the usual banter thrown for good measure.
Found this clever container after a few minutes searching.
CreightonCrew I found your cache at 2:42pm, this was the 15th of 17 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 5393. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

Nice find here at the bus stop.
Log was full so a replacement was inserted.
Heading out and about with Granett, Kyzabra and AlliedOz today around the wider Northam area. Popped in and out of the Event a couple of times. Thanks to all the COs for a great day.
CreightonCrew SVKR_WA found your cache Do the bus stop (if you can remember how). today at 14:42:19 1 Jun 2019.
CreightonCrew - Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment. We love travelling the state and visiting some places that we would only visit due to this game.
This find brings my find count to 3498

Having checked in to WAGB19 and done our meet and greet, Granett, SVKR_WA, Allied Oz and I headed out to grab some caches over the weekend.
Lots of laughs on the drive and this was one of the caches on our radar.
Very cool variation and worthy of a fav.
Thanks heaps to CreightonCrew for placing and maintaining Do the bus stop (if you can remember how).. I found your cache today. I added my name to the log and replaced where I found it.

Certainly a funky piece of work here. We decided to have a stroll out to this one after a nice lunch in town. We came across a few dogs, one of which would have weighed more than the two of us combined, on the way and were glad they stayed on their own side of the fence. As has been previously reported, this one's log is full and in need of a replacement. Thanks for the clever wee hide CreightonCrew
Very smart. Originally we saw it and got grossed out. It was very easy once we saw our target. Logbook very full.TFTC
Called in on our way to York for a couple of days, normally we only pass through so will be good to check out all the old buildings.
After going to check in at caravan park it was time to head into town and grab a cache or two or three (you know how it goes )
Do you think I could find it so Mr dimor had a look from a different angle and saw it. Thankfully no red backs were sighted
TFTC All caches were replaced as found

Very nice jide and camo (giving a fav) but log is overfull getting write overs. TFTC CreightonCrew.
We left Perth this morning to start our long journey east. After several months exploring some of the best that WA has to offer, we are now on our way back to our home in Victoria. We have caught up with friends, been made to feel very welcome by a number of local CO’s we have met on our travels, snorkelled in the pristine waters of Ningaloo, and spent 6 amazing weeks exploring the Kimberley region from east to west, and north to south. You blokes really do live in God’s own country. This is our third long visit, and we intend to be back for more.
Although we have missed family and friends while we have been away, the one thing we have not missed is the rotten Victorian winter. And we must say Perth has certainly come to the party with a succession of beautiful, sunny spring days. A lovely note to be leaving on!
Stopped in York for a look around and some caching. Even got the bikes off the back of the van! Lovely little town with lots of history.
It took a a bit longer than we were expecting, as we searched every nook and cranny before finally coming up with the very well-crafted hide. Great work. The best one of these we have seen done!.
The log is very full and needs to be replaced. Signed ‘SKI’. No room for more.

First of 23 finds made today as we head south out of this lovely little town of York.
This one is a much better version of a similar hide type that we have found a few times before.
The log was full so I wrote our name over an older faded entry.
Thanks and a favourite point from us.

Before arriving to GZ I thought the cache might be like that. Took still little bit looking around before I found it. First time seeing this container in real life. FP!
On e again, Monts refused to come with me today. Anybody would think he is becoming a recluse! I told him it would just be a nice day around York, but he still declined. TFTC CreightonCrew

Another fun find with Just-Lookin.

Great camo. Kids found it very quickly bot told not to touch it so moved on. Came back and grabbed it anyway to find the cache. Well done
Sorry !! I'm too young to remember how to do the 'Bus Stop'
Embarrassingly I do remember how to do 'The Locomotion'
And 'Nutbush' (though I only remember ever doing that dance on roller skates)
Back at the bus stop I took a seat for a moment.
It would be handy if one of those pesky rain showers happened about now
Nup !!
So I set about searching for the cache ...
... and searching ...
... and searching ...
a few minutes later I found the cache in its very appropriate camouflage [^]
Very funny !!

Finally found (fourth time) - well to be truthful, geofriend and I were looking (& had been so for about twenty minutes) when a car pulled up. Uh oh, I thought...someone was wondering what we were up to, but no it was a fellow geocacher who was willing to give us a very big hint ... Loved the camo on this nano TFTH
Found without too much trouble after reading the terrain rating. Wasn't able to get the logbook out so SpiderJockey07 and i took a photo as evidence of our find instead. TFTC
