Logs
Unfortunately, I cannot see any information that indicates that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement. Therefore as advised previously, the cache is being de-listed (Archived) to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.
The [**Geocache Maintenance guideline**](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance) explains what needs to happen with a Disable cache.
Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained in the Help Center article [**here**](http://support.groundspeak.com//index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70).
If you wish to contact me please send an email via my profile - [**Bunjil**,](https://coord.info/PR9GZ0K) and quote the cache name and GC number.

Heading to the Queensland Muster in Barcaldine with plans to catch up with family and fellow cachers in NSW first we headed up through some uncharted areas seeking out presolved puzzles and any other caches that took our fancy.
All dry today and we were able to sign . Can’t say we have seen one done like this before!
Thanks kazskrew for the placement.

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###
----------
I notice from one or more log entries that this cache would seem to be in need of some help - **there appears to be a need for owner intervention.**
Therefore, the cache is being temporarily disabling so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.
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) I cannot see any log that indicates a recent visit by the CO to this cache.
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) by **27th September,** 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:
- Repair and/or Replace your cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) 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 don't plan on fixing it up then please [**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.
- 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 (by 27th September). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it.
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) the cache 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.

Found it, but I didn't attempt to sign the log as it was saturated. Badly needs maintenance.
Had fallen off where is was meant and found on the ground near by. Needs maintenance
We are in Orange waiting for the Geoman to finish a bike challenge. Some hints from previous logs were helpful. TFTC on a very hot Orange day. #104
Tftc - found it with no pen. Son forgot to bring it, too many caches without a pen
Located the hiding spot but didn't find the cache. Our team member did the rescue. A 'souvenir' from visiting orange. Thanks for hiding this cache here!
We maaaaadde it to Orange, just exploring the streets before dinner. Raindoctor through his experience located the cache. Also in the mix was candytyt and our mate shiny
Sneaky hide
Log sheet needs replacing sorry didn't have a suitable paper with me. Tftc

I was determined to find a cache during my short stay in Orange so braved the early morning cold and drizzle to get this one. GPS was accurate, and simple find thanks to the hint. Logbook full. Tftc!
In Orange with Trodectus on a heritage train ride so had looked at some caches to do. Arrived GZ and after short search had CIH. Log is full but found a spot to sign. Cache replaced as found. TFTC
Came to Orange on a heritage train with Coybear2000. We had a little time to go for some caches.
We headed towards GZ and started our search. We soon spotted a potential hide but it took two of us to retrieve it. The log is full. TFTC.

A few minutes spare during my visit to Orange was near town and this one was close by drove up to GZ and went to the obvious place and bingo just need to encourage it out .. thanks
Headed out on a geocaching weekend through Bathurst and on to Orange with Fitzy_1965. We have pre-solved a number of puzzles and they were our main priority. Added in the odd multi & traditional along the way.
Found whilst waiting for take-away dinner to be ready. Not too many muggles around after dark but still required a bit of stealth when a car pulled up on the roadside. Find 32 for the day, TFTC

Locating this cache was not difficult, but getting it out of its hiding place was! A locally available caching tool was used to extract the container and from there it was all plain sailing. Name was added to the list and everything was replaced. Many thanks to kazskrew for a fun cache in the city centre. Favourite point added for a nicely hidden cache.
11195. Headed up to the Orange region with AngelG27, Sol de Lune and specimenX ("FASS") for a fun-filled weekend of caching. Lots of caches found, a few not found, and a lot of laughs had as we toured around over 2 full days as far north as Wellington which resulted in 124 finds for me.
Arriving in Orange around 9pm we checked into the Motel then headed out for a few quick finds while the muggles (mostly !) were indoors. This was the next find of the trip for me. While carefully searching at GZ a few pizza-munching muggles came past and sat nearby to finish their meal. While Angel caught a few pocket monsters as a decoy SDL made the find. Log signed, cache returned, and we were off to the next one.
Thanks again kazskrew !!
TNLN - TFTC !!

Found as part of an Orange and surrounds geomission with fitzy_1965, AngelG27 & Sol de Lune (signed as FASS to save time & space ) Top weather, great company and lots of laughs meant for an epic weekend of caching all round!
We had to wait out a couple of muggles at this spot but soon had the cache in hand for the signing
Thanks for the hide, kazskrew

Travelled to Orange from Canberra tonight with Specimen X, Sol de Lune and Fitzy_1965 for a big weekend caching. Got here around 9pm and decided to head out for a few quick caches while the muggles were inside keeping warm. Signed as FASS
Third of the evening - but still lots of muggles around. Had to find a couple of Pokemon to keep the muggles at bay! Quick find in accordance with the hint. TFTC

Hmm, lost my post here, so trying again. Snaffled this one today while the ladies were shopping. Found a park spot, free, not in here it was full! Had a coffee and a quick walk around but this busy town/city is not relaxing
TFTC a great place to hide. Out for dinner in the big O and a couple o glasses o red so a need to hunt. Thank you
We wanted free shady parking and found it but it meant walking a bit further to the cache. Worth it for such a good hide. TFTC kazskrew.
Having parked our Motorhome in the carpark we thought we had better find this one. A quick find, thanks kazskrew.
The irony is that these ones are maybe harder to find when in plain sight!

Neatly hidden cache and not many muggles to worry about on a Sunday afternoon. Thanks.
Came to checkout the D5 for later but we were happy to settle for a cache we could find. Thanks kazcrew for a neat urban hide .
Surprised at how cheap the parking was, a quick find however so I didn't pay anything at all!

Great clue. Noone around in the afternoon so was able to search for it. My first find.
No one around in the parking lot so late in the day, but still we had some trouble after misunderstanding the hint and not looking well enough in the first place. Thanks kaskrew.
In Orange for a couple of days and dropped by this one on Saturday afternoon. Reasonably quiet so I could search without too much hassle. Did read the hint and then soon had the cache in hand. Agree with others.......nice hide.
Thanks for teh cache kazskrew

The second last day of our Christmas/New Year camping trip saw us heading from Wanda Wandong camping area in Goobang National Park via Yeoval, Cumnock and Molong down to Orange.
Parked outside the paid parking area and grabbed the cache.

We thought Christmas Day would be good day to do this one as there would be fewer muggles about. We were right, the car park was completely deserted which made for a quick find, though extraction took a bit longer. Thanks for the cache kazskrew.
