Unfortunately there does not seem to be any evidence that indicates that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement. It would appear the owner of this cache listing is no longer interested in the cache and the cache has been abandoned.

As such the cache is being de-listed (Archived). If there are components or remnants of the cache, please recover them as we don't want to litter our environment with Georubbish.

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.

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

----------

Hi there Cache Owner,

This cache has come to my notice as there is a 'Needs Maintenance' log that that indicates there is some sort of issue with the placement and it needs your attention please.

Check out the Guidelines here: [**cache owners responsibilities.**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance) If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to [**Disable the cache**](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.

Great view! Thanks for bringing us here. TFTC

This geocacher reported that the logbook is full.

Fantastice views. Verry close to mugles castle.

We certainly enjoyed the views along this road - though we hope that the existence and location of the cache is known to the home owners here!
Quickly found, two travellers picked up and noted that the cache already had a visitor today. Left a TB in return.

Found on a beautiful spring day!! Left Travel bug “Ring of Fire” and “keep your fire burning” geocoin.

Great view. Now to take a closer look at the lake. Thanks!

Quick find with an amazing view- who could ask for anything more! Tftc! Tb left

Cache ok but log book missing. Left a page from my note book with my log. Tftc

Took glow in the dark dino left toy leopard

Out along the back roads and this cache took me to a view of the lake

But why is the cache 'here' ??
There is an even better view another 50 metres down the road,
which isn't right outside the house !!! [:o]

So I parked about 50 metres down the road,
and snuck back on foot to avoid muggle detection

TFTC

Making a backroad diversion on the way back from Warrnambool in order to pick up a few caches along the way. Easy find. TB drop

We pulled up, puzzled at the size of the various dams, then spotted the lake. That is quite a lot of water!
Thanks

Found by Scott & Shaye.

Found on homeschool outing. Boys enjoying exercise

On my way home from a few days away. I was all by myself and had the opportunity to just take it slow and check out the area. Geocaching takes you to such a huge range of locations.
Thanks to LisaGreen from mogni

Out and about on a localish outing today exploring Winch / Bambra / Angelsea Heath.
Lots of Iron-bark woodlands and slipping and sliding around 4WD tracks!

A nice view here - wonder if the house owners know about the cache?!

Thanks for the placement.

Impressive windchill today - great view. TFTC

Nice cache
TFTC

Daddy G found this one! Well done Daddy

TFTC

I have skirted Lake Wurdiboluc many times and even stopped there for a cache or two but never realised I could see it from here TFTC

Down this part of the world for work and thought I would squeeze in a few caches along the way. Nice views of the lake here as advertised, glad nobody was home while I quickly searched for and found the hide. Thanks for the cache JustinDay.

*On the way to Lorne for the day*.

Out with TR! grabbing one or two on a day out and about.

This was found fairly quickly with no muggles about.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment LisaGreen... Appreciate your efforts...
-P

Stamped and returned as found...

Took: Nothing
Left: TB

**#12065**

Cache-On!

Grabbed this one on a day trip to Lorne with Snap Happy. Thanks for the cache.
Number 1 for the day
TFTC..

Heading home after a trip to the Forrest rail trail.
Not much of a view through the drizzle.
TFTC

Great find

TFTC- lovely spot to stop en route to Deans Marsh

Easy find in a very windy day

Yay we fond it.. (u is missing lol) not reachable with my wheelchair but absolutely hilarious watching my half muggle mum trip over trying to retrieve the cache...

TFTC!

Set off to gather some Bambra/Deans Marsh caches today. What else would you do to escape the coastal influx. Rain to begin the day, humidity and eventually heat and strong winds. More like the top end tropics than Victoria(except for the wind LOL)

Certainly is a wonderful view. Thanks for bringing us up here and thanks for the cache LisaGreen.

Left Seahorse and Took a seal.

Note: parking seems to be directly in front of the only house on the hill. Some stealth may be required accessing the hide.

08:39
The serenity of the Otway Ranges was a far cry from the frantic festive season preparations going on in town! There was a carpet of flowers and the birds sang all day, as we set about converting some of the long outstanding green boxes to smiley tokens. We soon had this well stocked cache in hand, signed the log and paused to admire the view.

Our thanks to LisaGreen for placing this cache.
17444.

found logged and on my way back home tftc

Quick drive by TFTC

Found it and thanks for bringing us to a lovely view tftc

tyfc. loved this one.

Out with MaggieDot and three geokids to winchelsea. The meander home brought us to this cache. Quick find by the geocachers in training. Cache in good condition. TFTC.

It's so pretty through here - I should know - I spent my high school years living around here! Thanks for bringing me back and TFTC!

Quick and easy find at 3:30pm
Managed to squeeze this cache in just as the weather started to turn
The rain/drizzle looks like it is set in

Thanks for bring me out to explore your local area

TFTC

Off the Otway trail, great to see this scenic and peaceful stop. Left the car door open, go figure, a truck and trailer with three big hay bales decides to come by! TFTC

Today we explored Geelong and surrounds using geocaching as a guide.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Nice quick find in a surprisingly scenic area. Right in view of a homestead; wonder if the owners know about the cache? TFTC.

Find # 1957

As I was only 75 smilies from 2000, and 2 days left of the Year, I decided to hit the "This way to the Otways" trail, the Tiger Line trail and a few others that looked like quick grabs to get the big numbers before the new year.

A 14hour solo round trip with only me, ute, GPSr and a selection of music to keep my sanity.
I left home just before 7.30am and got back home almost at 9.30pm and had travelled 628ks

this one was well worth the diversion form the the otways trail.
a good sized cache, heaps of swag and a great view.


TFTC LisaGreen

2nd find of the day.
Beautiful view.
Located nice & quickly.
All in good condition.
It's decorated cute! Good for kids. Loaded with heaps of stuff/swaps/SWAG.
Left- a smiley face magnet.
Cheers & T.F.T.C!
Safe travels & hoppy caching =]

A nice easy drive by and a fantastic view of the lake. Thanks to LisaGreen for the hunt.

Out in a caching/ maintenance run with geordiefamily. This was one of the caches we visited on the way back home.

Awesome view of the lake here at s spot we probably would never come to. TFTC

LL

Hubby spotted that one from the car. Eagle eyes!

Out today to complete some of the Otway series with alchey
Made a detour to come and collect this one.
Yes, there are great views to had from here and thanks for bringing me here also

Thanks LisaGreen for the find
Log signed and replaced. TFTC & smiley face
Find #748

Out today with Darth Briji to claim a few smiles, this was one of many for the day.
Took a detour off the main route to take in the views
Thanks for the Cache LisaGreen
#504

While we headed down picking up dbelco's series we saw this just around the corner making the trip we couldn't resist just taking a slight detour. The cache is huge with lots of goodies in it

Actually spotted this one from the road. Nice easy find on a quite road. We signed the log and hid the cache with a little more camo. TFTC LisaGreen.

We found it and it's loaded!!!

We found it and it's loaded!!!

We found it.

Found with AnjBato. Kids had a great time going through the well stocked container trying to decide what to swap! Tftc!

Was on a mission to knock over a bit more of the Otways trail and after being rained out at my intended starting point of Lake Modewarre, this looked like a handy alternative. The rain had passed by the time I arrived however everything was still a little drippy. I parked, admired the expansive view and then made a quick find before heading off towards the Otways.
Thanks LisaGreen !

Beautiful sunny day for caching around Colac-Otway country
Great view up here
Thanks for bring me here and cache

What a beautiful view! The gps had us within 10m so it took a few minutes to find, we left a Disney land souvenir

A beautiful view. Our GPS had us on the other side of the road but once we took stock and had a think, we had the cache in hand. The cache is a great size, has loads of good swaps, is in great condition and is nice and dry. Thanks for the hide LisaGreen and for bringing us to this picturesque location.

Thanks for the cache. Cool cache. Great swaps. Awesome view.

Mrs Crackers joined alansee and Liz & Bruce for a trip to the Otways to pick up the rest of the series that we hadn't found as yet before going to the event tonight.
We decided to take a small detour to pick up this one. We had't long parked the car when the cache was in hand and we were all adding our names to the log.
The view wasn't as good as it could have been in the drizzling rain.

A bit of a deviation here while doing the series and a nice quick find and a chat to a local to boot.

A top day with a couple of other teams with a high level of geocaching addiction, namely Alansee and Di from Team Crackers. Loads of fun, the rain was a light drizzle most of the day so not too bad. This was one of the caches we targetted and were able to find. Thanks to LisaGreen for placing this cache.

Found your cash and the view is awesome considering I go there every day lol

15:07

Nice little off road detour here today.

Nothing beats a good country drive.

We pulled up close by and jumped out the car.

No one home close by luckily.

Picked up a TB to move on soon.

TFTC

We drived up here after a trip to Lorne.

The road was bumpy.

We then got out the car and found it.

This was fun.

The road was dusty.

We found the hide really cool.

Found by Mary & David at 1230. Marvellous view, although the land is looking so brown and dry. A nice mix of gums and blackwoods here. Even better to get off the main road onto a gravel road. A great way to experience this part of country Victoria. Dropped off "Ernie" TB. Our thanks to LisaGreen.

Found! Took the time to visit this location from the main road & glad I did. Don't think anyone was at home when I went looking, otherwise I probably would have looked out of place. Some good goodies in here but took nothing.

TFTC

Find #511

Certainly is a lovely view of the surrounding area, plenty of water to be seen today. An easy find. SL TFTC

It was nice to detour up here for the great view and an easy roadside find.
Found with featherdown today
TNLN

This morning was cool enough to enjoy a lot of caches before the expected 29 degrees arrived later.
A brief stop up here to log this one
TFTC

A couple of days away to collect a few caches.
Late logging so apologies for not personalising logs.
This is one of 59 for the day.
TFTC SL

After doing the Otways trail, Sully1 and I just had to do a few more caches.
This was a terrific view across the lake in the late evening, thanks for sharing it LisaGreen

8.43pm, nearing dark, hungry and tired, but we were still caching on the way home after our day to the Otways. Bogonghazy was quick off the mark here, and as I was dragging my feet to GZ he already had the cache in hand. We signed and replaced and returned to the car pointing it in the direction of home after a long day. Thanks to LisaGreen & JustinDay

1st cache!

On our 5th holiday in Australia we travelled from Lorne to Torquay, partly over “This is the way to Otways" and further over the Great Ocean Road.
On the way back to the Great Ocean Road over unsealed roads we picked up this one.

Greetings from the Netherlands and TFTC.

TB out

Found 4:43:00 PM, in the company of Muzza during our first combined caching day for the year.

TNLN, thanks LisaGreen.

Today was my day out caching with Biggles Bear and we planned to both do our 8,000th cache along the way. We planned to do the 'This way to the Otways' series but had a bit of extra time to do a few others along the way. This one had some great views across to the lak.

Thanks to LisaGreen for the cache and the views.

I'd planned a big day of caching for today and a big day it was. The main aim was to complete the Otways trail of caches and to find other caches along the way. Starting just out of Waurn Ponds I made my way to Cape Otway Rd and continued to the end of the caching trail before heading east towards Torquay and then on into the southern suburbs of Geelong. Hitting the road at around 7:15 am, it was a long 20 hour day of caching with 630 km travelled and 100 caches founds along with some DNF's. With my first cache found at 7:30 am, I crawled into bed at around 3:30 am the following morning. A great day and thanks to all the CO's who placed the caches I found (and did not find) today.
Nice views from the road here and a quick park and grab.
Thanks for the hide.

Found by The Empire @ 12:40pm
Find number 32 of 37 today on the day of the Geelong Xmas Smorgasbord of Events. Thanks for the cache LisaGreen.

Found on a big day out to Deans Marsh and home with my geobuddy BJ. Watched by an observant farmer I got out and took photos of the lake until he lost interest! It is a great view though. LN, picked up Tim's birthday bug TB. TFTC LisaGreen

Nice find thanks

It is a picturesque setting - I had never been out here before.
The cache could be seen from the road while I was still in the car, so it was quick find. After signing the log in the well-presented cache, I covered it up a little better. Discovered the Tim TB but left him there. TFTC.

What a wonderful view across to Mt Buninyong in the distance. A great place to log #200. I had a quick look at the contents and saw a geocoin from Tasmania but didn't see Tim's TB amongst the bits and pieces (hope I'm just blind). TFTC Giving it a favorite because of the view today.

Woo hoo great one Lisa

Easy find for us while we were driving around the back roads here. Found "Tim's Birthday TB" and a Geocaching Pathtag in the cache which we left alone since we couldn't move towards the desired destination.

TFTC

Easy find on a lovely day.

TFTC

Quick find at 11.50am, thankfully as it is blowing a gale up here!

Found by Andrew and Chris 9/9/13

Found by Andrew + Chris - 9/9/13.

Dropped TB

Yay! Good one, scenery wasn't as good as I had hoped but the horses were friendly

Just a quick afternoon hunt on the way from Bo-Luc (GCHX72) to collect trackable from GC3T9YV
TFTC SL
took frog, left red warrior

We were staying in Wurdiboluc for the weekend and while there wasn't much time for caching but we did sneak off for a couple of hours.
Nice view and what a well stocked container - fantastic.

TFTC LisaGreen

Gorgeous views that I never knew were here. Thanks for taking me here. First cache of the day going out with friends and family. As usual kids always find first. Took geocoin left pathtag

Nice park and grab, nice view. TFTC
