The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.
I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.
Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.
If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.
For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.
After the nearby CITO and some cache maintenance, Owl wound her way home via the worst possible route. This included a detour to a cache that was to be found 'some day'. Today was the day and the lid was located soon enough, but as others have observed, the cache bottom and contents are missing. The CO seems to be allowing claims on this alone, but if it isn't going to be fixed, it needs to be removed to prevent ringbarking and then archived.
This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.
I sincerely hope the previous finder has messaged CO as to WHY the cache needs maintenance.. It's smashed, missing and in bits. Log book amazingly drowned in this rain so signed lid. Unfortunately I didn't have repair equipment with me.
Cache holder is smashed off, log is completely missing presumed drowned in rain and lid was at base of tree. A small swap was there but I took it to save on more littering.
Beware of Kash the huntsman guarding his train. He prefers hi fives over knuckles.
Was prepared to scale a tree, but no need.
Replaced log and put in little snap lock bag to protect it. Tftc Pretty Park.
Another DNF off my list!

After an early start with Rod81w on our waterbag trip from down south to attend the nearby CITO we continued to find a few caches around this area, one we don't get too very often at all. [^]
Came for a nice little walk in the wetlands, cache found quickly.
Thanks for the cache Harleyjohn2569.

A rare day out North with JJ52. After a early pick up we drove to this side of town for a CITO then cached our way around the area
Quick find, log book needs replacing

Spent far to long looking down.
Ended up at eye height. Enjoyed walking through the stolen generation garden. Thanks for a tricky one.

before setting off for this one we took some paper just in case there was no log so signed said piece of paper and placed in cache thanks for the hunt and TFHC
Easy find but no log inside. Needs maintenance. Took photo as proof of find. Happy new year - TFTC
Went bak today.. completely demolished.. found a few bits.... my guess local ferrals.
Mr Tardis was up north caching today, and stopped by to find this one. I found it after a few minutes of searching. Logbook was wet and mushy. Couldn't sign the log.
Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Harleyjohn2569.

Found It!
A nice walk and a quick find. Inside the cache I found a large flower and the damp remains of the logbook. I removed the flower and left my mark on one of the bits of paper but I think it needs some attention from the CO soon.

Found it but couldn't sign it, too damp inside still. Needs maintenance and perhaps waterproofing.
Found it fairly quickly. Invite couldn't leave note. Water had seemed in and pencil ruined. Still Fun

Found it lying on the ground, looks like it should be hanging somewhere! Left it behind adjacent tree. Log is very wet. Thanks.
The only thing we found was an empty purple plastic tube. Don't kniw if this was muggled cache.
Thankyou Harleyjohn for picking up on my error. Didn't have much luck today with a few caches not sure if this one still there. Very interested in completing a few more of your caches will wait on a few more logs before proceeding. Nice locations though, never ventured that way before. Thanks again.
Unfortunately didn't find today. Will keep an eye on this one and try again another day. Any hints will help!
Wow. Looked for ages. No find. The pine tree looked 'out of place' but no cigar. We have been defeated but will try again. Feel free to message us a hint
Out with Mattycat for a hot day tour of the caches in the area, found after a short search, no wriggly sticks spotted today TFTC Harleyjohn2569
Just a few with mr Froghoppin today.
Back in old stomping ground for a little "bushwalk".
things have sure changed here. I remember walking around the sheep paddocks and then the holes when they first dug the original lakes!

Out with sesofficer & CPWanderer for the day.
Not sure how we missed it, but it was found rather exposed.
Huge park, thanks for bringing us here Harleyjohn2569

Went to grab a few of the annoying green boxes. Pulled up for this one, looked at each other - we have done this! So off we go to find out when we did it and now logging a late "claim" - logged was clearly signed.
So thanks for the hunt twice!
