##Cache Maintenance Required please.##
This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit, to address the issue described in the logs.
The cache owner needs to either fix the problem or archive the listing, after picking up any geo-litter. In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page.
See the maintenance section of the [Geocache Hiding Guidelines](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance).

If there is a good reason for a delay in enabling this cache, please post an update note log here on the cache page so that everyone will know what's going on.
When the maintenance is completed, you can re-enable the listing by entering an "Enable Listing" log, and then post an "Owner Maintenance" log to clear the "Needs Maintenance" attribute, if set.

I will check back in 30 days to be sure that the maintenance has been done, or that further information has been provided.

If there has been no action to repair the cache, or explain the situation, unfortunately I will need to Archive this cache. Caches archived because of lack of maintenance will not be unarchived.

The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.

Thank you

Found with The X-Trailers in terrain I hate. Should be a rant for rocks like nano's in SA. Some of this series took longer to locate than others. Fun time all the same

Found at 10:42:00 AM(t) GAFF3.
A very subtle hide for a sistema container that we thought would stick out like the proverbial! However thanks to excellent co-ords the cache was spotted - in a very well hidden location.
Thanks Lumpyjrb.

The journey continues with ilook4geo. We decided to have a go at this series and actually managed to find each one and sign the log. We did do some rock scrambling but success gives encouragement for the next one. Thank you to Lumpyjrb for putting out this series of caches.

Doing some more caching today with goingplaces2 and found this cache. Log was signed and all was replaced as found. Job done! TFTC.

After attending the mega in Townsville we are now heading for Darwin. First a couple of nights in Katherine at the Riverview cp. This was one of the caches we targeted and found. Thanks for arranging the hide.

This was the most difficult cache to unearth of this rock and roll series. I just did not move the right thing. Muggle husband had just got out of the car to help when I did move the right thing. He was very grateful.

Found this brand new replaced geocache container.

Well this one isn’t giving itself up.
If it’s a sistema container, and the fire activity that’s been through here in the last year or so suggests, then either it’s burnt or for some reason a lot of us have missed this one.
I wasn’t too keen placing my fingers in around the crevices.
 
01-Aug-20
We tried as did others same story. Oh well.

With geohubby driving shuttle busses for the V8 supercars all weekend I treated myself to a caching trip. We are partial to a bit of rock and roll so couldn't leave this series alone. Left a shell. TFTC Lumpyjrb

Still travelling NT after the Red Centre Experience but now moving towards Birdsville in QLD for the Big Red Bash.

We camped overnight between Edith Falls and Katherine so that we could tackle the nearby caches.

This cache has been burnt/melted in the recent fires so we replaced it.

Found, while heading towards Katherine, we unhooked the caravan and took the side road.
As we both love Rock 'n' Roll music, we were looking forward to completing this series.
For the 7 caches, it made us use all the geo-skills we have.
A good variety of containers, with some very imaginative hides.
Thanks for the series, Lumpyjrb.

After the breakfast Meet & great Darwinites we headed out to do a few caches with 2Lost-Souls.
I'm glad this has been recently been replaced so that we can record a perfect 10/10 for the series.
Thanks Lumpyjrb

This was our 4th cache find in the caching run & we found it at 12:53
So this now makes our total find count 6900.

Another wonderful day in Katherine. The cache raid today was a random start point followed by a string of caches selected, in most cases, by the "next closest" method.
This cache is lucky. A fire has just gone through here, and the nearby tree is still smouldering and smoking.
[/blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: Average (Around 5 metres).
Cache Condition: Container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Smiley Badge.
Thanks Lumpyjrb for the hunt today.

After 5 days in Darwin for the V8's and a little sightseeing it was time to head south back to the cold. Of course we grabbed caches on the way. Spent today in the Katherine area before staying the night at the Mataranka Thermal Pool. Smile

Quick find and sign for this one. TFTC. Big Grin

Saw this group of seven pop up, so parked the rig in Katherine and went back north. Decided to start from No 1, which was just as well, since it gave us a string of 5 out of seven FTF's. YEAH!

So... R and R # 2 was FTF for us, as well.

That part of the road has certainly changed since we first drove along it in 1976!

Thanks for the series, Lumpyjrb

Nice hides - all different and all interesting.
