I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, Swamp monkey02, 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 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 Swamp monkey02 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 you

Looked for a short while before agreeing with previous hunters that it’s likely been taken.

Had a good look, turned over a number of rocks. The have been muggles playing around here recently - I live just up the street- and there was a bike ramp set up about 20m from GZ. Cheers tee_eff

Hi there Swamp monkey02.

We found your cache **"Monzi,Kelsey and Harry's kids cache"** at 9:50:00 AM today. (This makes our find count 23790).

We decided to attempt some caches in Bridgetown today. We thoroughly enjoyed our drive, the walk and the scenery & found 17 caches & DNF'd 1.

Thanks for placing this cache here. Over the years, Geocaching has taken us on many adventures and to lots of wonderful destinations all over Australia. Without 'caching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic wanderings. 'Caching has also introduced us to a diverse group of like-minded people, many of whom we now call friends. Thanks also for not placing a mint tin or a 200ml Sistema here. It made us feel really good to find this "special" cache here.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 13m from where the GPS said we should be looking. Wink
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Smiley Badge.

Thank you Swamp monkey02 for adding to our adventure.

Regards

Ian & Penny

Nice lake. Wish I brought some little surprises for the new cache
 
08-Dec-18
After all the other teams not being able to find it we too had the same experience.
We found the lid and a pet Rick that we could not get out of its place it has fallen.
We replaced the cache with a new container and maybe it will get lucky and not get taken.
With the encouragement of housing it is always going to be at risk.
For now all ok.

Sent Mr OOH YEH out on a caching run down south to turn some of those green boxes into smileys. Managed to find all the ones that was on our list with a few that took a bit of searching. Thanks to all the CO,S for placing these caches.

Out down this way finding caches whilst camping in Pemberton. TFTH
Signed lid and no sign of container
 
02-Nov-18
Found the lid only here. Signed that.

Down south on a boys camping trip for a few days, with cravo10 and a couple of muggle mates who have accounts (Rebeljac and Matty333)

Managed to snag a bunch of caches on the way down and back including a few near where we stayed at Big Brook Dam near Manjimup and Pemberton.

Thanks to the local COs for their caches.

07-Feb-15
Great hide i imagine this would have been a lovely spot until they put houses all around it... was a bit tricky being stealth as there are no entry signs everywhere?
 
23-Oct-14
Well m4yb and me arrived safely and checked into our B'n'B, after a coffee we headed out to see what Bridgetown had to offer. Years since I had been here when Nacho Mamaz were recorded by the ABC for the great "Blues at Bridgetown" show. Great memories, but so long ago.

Nice hide here and glad to put a smiley in the area and show a find after so many months. Thanks Swamp monkey02. {:)]
 
23-Oct-14
On our way down south for our Denmark geoweekend. This was our first find in Bridgetown. We checked into our B & B nearby and then drove around the area, parked his GeoJazz and wandered down. Very picturesque area with the lake and the hills around. Made the find of this great cache, SL and replaced. TFTC Swamp monkey02.
