It would seem there are one or more aspects of this cache that do not conform to the Groundspeak geocaching guidelines.

The CO has been given the opportunity to rectify the situation but this does not appear to have happened.

As the cache is no longer guideline-compliant it is being Archived to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to also prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

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.

If you wish to contact me regarding this cache, please send an email via my profile - [Bunjil,](https://coord.info/PR9GZ0K) and quote the cache name and GC number.

Finally completed this one. Has seen better days

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

----------

I've noticed this cache is carrying a maintenance log which really does need to be addressed by the cache owner.

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) 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) within 14 days,** 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:

- Check on the cache, repair and/or replace the cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked 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 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 (within 14 days). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. For ongoing issues (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to speed.

- If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**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.

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) it 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.

House sitting at Nairne with earthlight & we decided on a day of sunshine and caching.
Started with a very windy morning and beautiful scenery as we make our way throughout the hills collecting unfounds️
After lunch we worked our way around Nairne collecting more unfounds.
Walked past twin black lambs in the neighbouring paddock on the way to this cache.

This cache has a hole in the container and has seen better days & is in need of maintenance.

Last find for what has been a great day caching with Clare007. Talked her into walking the fire track today.
Cache has seen better days and lid has a hole in. Log bk has been wet at some stage.
TFTC and a walk along the track to admire the views.

Took a little drive down the road. Found the container not where it was supposed to be according to the previous finder who was with us.

Retrieved it from the paddock and returned to where it is supposed to be. New log book added.

Thanks for the cache Tulani.
Found on 1 Apr 2018 at 3:42:00 pm.

Had fun trying to get to gz and was an easy find, nearly took home a sheep bone souveneir. the container was dripping with some type of fluid but the log book was fine.

A visit to my mate who was recently out of hospital saw me arriving a little too early to the area (possibly on purpose!). The stroll was a pleasant one even though it was slightly damp under foot. A couple of horses were being ridden past so that was amusing. After stopping to say high, we were both on our way.

Thanks to Tulani and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet!

A short caching run with Mr and Mrs Froghoppin to clear off some caches between us.
It was raining.
We got to the end of the road.
It was raining.
We negotiated a "gate".
It was raining.
Quite a nice stroll through the cow pats and puddles.
It was raining.
Waved to the cows. Walked some more.
In the rain.
Found a great tree, with some cloudy views.
Did I mention it was wet?

Are the sheep muggles in disguise?

Out today with Freddo to tick off a couple more mini powertrails [^] and any other that happened to be along our travel route.
This was one of the many fun finds for the day.
Cheers & TFTC Tulani

OMG!! we must be crazy. On a cold wet late afternoon along with JF & the geodogs we walked along the firetrack to find this cache. When we left the sky looked ok. Slight relief from the weather from almost inside the big tree. From the cache back the rain pelted across the paddock & the hill seemed a lot steeper than I remember. Thats it, just one for tonight. Back home for dinner & dry off. SL. TFTC

Found this while Geo-Daughter and I were going for a walk during school holidays. The container was out in the open in the grass. The log was still in good condition. After cleaning it out, we signed the log and returned the cache to where we believe it belongs

A nice short walk today along the old fire track. I found the cache in the first place I looked - don't you just love it when that happens?

I rescued the stranded TB in the cache and freed a dozen earwigs who had set up camp in the cache.

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Tulani.

Another hot day walking down a dusty track after dropping off the Granddaughters at school. Dropped off a Travel Bug names "No place like home @113" sending it on its way after traveling from North America to Australia. Good luck on its travels. TFTC

An enjoyable walk this morning with no cattle grazing along the road. The cattle over the fence look like they're scratching for a good feed though SurprisedTwisted! Sure is dry around here.
Saw a rabbit in the distance run under a pile of branch cuttings as we walked down the hill Razz.
Took card. Left ear plugs. SL.
Thanks again Tulani.

Super find...we would never have thought to jump that fence before. What a lovely walk through old-school Nairne. And found a TB! Baldmaxman, we seem to be forever hot on your heels!

Down, and down, past the bees, up and up. Look for cache, find cache. Down and down, past the bees and up and up (this up seemed harder than the first up). I love the good ol' bush engineering at the gate.

Thanks for the cache Tulani.

 
14-Dec-12
Found after a nice walk in, from what looked like the only reasonable access to the cache. Gave the tree with the beehive at the bottom of the valley a very wide berth. Thanks for the cache Tulani!
 
02-Dec-12
Cache found in the last place we looked, which was actually the first place we looked. I left my swaps in the Pahero and I did not have anything of equal value in my pockets. Thanks for the cache guys, we love your work.

we started walking down the track after negotiating the opening fence.... there was a calf in front of us! it stayed in front of us all the way to the cache. nice easy find - thanks. then back to the car with the calf in front of us again, accompanied by half a dozen cows the other side of the fence kicking up a fuss!!! mrs K hates cows - boy did she walk back to the car quickly!!! haha. the calf skipped over the fence near the car much to the delight of the cows & mrs K.

Nice walk today on a lovely day.

Dropped some plants off to the school and went for a walk to get this cache. The false hide got us too! Red Face. But a quick search turned up the not camo cache. Smile Bri's big mits couldn't fit in the hide so it was Sal who did the recovery. Great hide for your first. Thanks for bringing us down here Tulani. We both need the exercise. Big Grin

I couldn't resist doing another cache on such a gorgeous day [^]
I was mildly surprised to where my GPS took me, then wondered how I would get the fence back after I unhooked it!! I know, will sneak through the fence that way I don't have to worry Big Grin
Love the walked down & admired the lovely huge gum trees.
Wow, feels like this track goes on forever even my GPS has no map of this section.
Found the tree easily enough, almost got fooled by the decoy bark Wink
Have to say, that is one very pink container left my sunglasses on for that one.
Cheers Tulani for the great walk down memory lane Smile

Walked to GZ in a shower of rain. A bit wet underfoot after the rain last night but after a quick find I had forgotten all about the dampness. TFTC Tulani
 
09-Oct-12
A pleasant stroll to this one(avoid the cow pats!!) and a quick find in its sheltered spot! Thanks Tulani for a great little hide!!
