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

After a good look around in various nooks and holes in a few different trees I couldn’t find this cache. Last find was April so who knows if it’s still there
Nice quick find of cache considerably smaller than said mint tin. Tftc beautiful area
It was a nice walk along the foreshore to the cache. Not a mint tin but still found it. Thanks for setting this up.
After a mission of finding parking and the school pickup rush, I was finally on route. Found the geo on the ground? So I popped it back in what I feel like is an appropriate spot.
We headed to Dunsborough for the long weekend, happy to say we came up trumps and walked away with a smiley after a brief search TFTC
Had a good look (4 of us), we are here for 4 days...please can the CO confirm that it is still in situ!
I think I found it - cache wasn’t in a mint tin though it was a mini plastic tube. It has names and dates but nothing looking like official geocache. I hope it was the real one ️
Found on father's day by the Vincent and Madsen clans thank goodness we had the small hands from the little treasure hunters to get the cache out of the hole
Found after finishing the Cape to Cape track. Few days R&R before heading to Collie to finish off the Bibbulmum track to pemberton. Thankyou for the cache
Another day out with cullum68 in this lovely area a bit windy today thanks for the cache
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.

This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.
I arrived her with maccamob and after quite an extensive search we were unable to find the cache.
Thanks for bringing us to this lovely spot though, perhaps we will have more luck next visit.

We did try here for ages, and with various TOTT, All to no avail, though. Our thanks anyway to dnanx.
Was down near Dunsborough, doing some Caching when I noticed there was a couple of ftfs, rise from my messages. So we stopped what we were doing, and headed over to them to find Barnzy12 had already beaten us, besides 1. One was better than none. Thanks to everyone for placing these caches for everyone to find.
Found on an early morning walk! Got sprung by a muggle and spent the next 20 minutes explaining geocaching! TFTC!
The weather wasn’t so fine so we were looking around to find some Caches in this nice town. Here we could find the hiding place quickly! Thanks for it !
Picked a beautiful evening for a walk along the foreshore. Had a few muggles doing the same thing so waited a while to extract the cache. TFTC
TFTCAfter a couple of dnfs it was a welcome relief to find this one. Thanks for the cache
After a little search got it but unfortunate my daughter returned it to the wrong hole and it has dropped deep into the tree and now unretrievable , sorry
The coordinates point to a particular tree which also matches a previous log photo. I searched this tree thoroughly with a torch and checked other trees nearby to be sure and I couldn't find anything
Looked in every possible home. Most likely been removed. Lots of kids who climb trees could have found it and not known what it was.
hi dnanx spent about 15 mins searching 4 trees here and the cache is not here. dont know how people log finds when it is not there
Hi there dnanx.
This is the 1st of 1 caches we didn't find today.
[:(!]
We spent quite some time here at around 11:43:00 AM, but we just couldn't locate your cache. It's either not there, a very clever hide or we are just suffering from "cache blindness", so here's a DNF from us.
Regards
Ian and Penny
