### Cache Maintenance Visit Required please.###This geocache has been brought to my attention as needing an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache. See the [GCHQ Health Score](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713) process.It certainly needs to be checked by the Cache Owner. The cache owner needs to:* Take action to restore the cache or address issues such as correcting the D/T rating, or the posted coordinates.* 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 that 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 Croker Crew and to take it off the playing board to prevent further inconvenience to our Geocaching Community.[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 taken by the CO.If nothing has happened, I will conclude 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 in good condition and 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 youBalayang -GeoffCommunity Reviewer
With E95 and all the prickles, even with the four of us scrambling around, still no luck.
Today we walked and walked in Casuarina Coastal Reserve along the many trails, finding Darwin's first 'power' trial and completing it along with some other caches in the reserve. Some caches were easier to find than others, some were in prickly bush areas, others searching amongst the debris. TFTC
We decided to go for a bike ride along this coastal track to the dripstone cliffs. Was quite a nice ride with no to many people on the track.
We didn't have to run through the jungle for this one as it was pretty close to track.
Thanks for placing this cache

I’m visiting family for a week with time for geocaching as well. I parked in Buffalo Creek Rd as that was the most central location for the caches I wanted to find.
After finding a few other caches, I headed down to this series, though this one was my last for this visit.
Gz had me going into a prickly jungle but after a couple of attempts I gave up. Then I saw the previous finders comment about a spor - that was so much easier.
I’ve found a number of If’s caches in Brisbane - definitely some good ones. Tftc

Found under SPOR. Suspect someone has done maintenance here as the hide has changed but it is a decent hide.
We parked our car today at the electrical substation as it seemed like the safest place before embarking on the power trail. OCW irondale. We found them all except number one. TFTC

Today we took an early morning bike ride towards Lee Point, where a small trail of tradis had been waiting for us for a long time.
Some of the caches in this series were found years ago. For the remaining tradis, the travel time just didn't fit; it was always the rain season.
But this time it was right. Arriving before the actual rainy season, the past rainy days did not bother us; instead, there are now no more bush fires and plant growth has not yet started.
Only this hiding place took me longer to find. The bin was newly laid and is a bit off the original coordinates near the path and now between stones, covered with stone.
So after seven finds in this jungle, I was looking forward to heading home along the coast.
Thank you Croker Crew for laying and caring!

Found the cache after reading the logs here, not the clue. It is getting deeply buried under fallen leaves and may be easily lost soon as this is the time of the year when many trees shed their leaves at the end of the dry season. By the end of the year, mud and soil movement from the heavy rains may also bury or move it.
We found this one under a SPOR, where the newish log sheet had just 2 signatures., Liz & Bruce, and pprass. We signed under pprass, and continued our journey along this very civilised path.
As we were walking, we noticed three white cockatoos, which are almost half black at the moment. I guess their nesting hollow is in a burnt tree and they have taken on some of the colour of that!
Thanks Croker Crew

On a trip around Australia with the family, out finding some caches this morning asking this beautiful track. Quick find here, tftc!
Found at 10:55:00 AM(t) GAFF1.
We loved that song and thought it a bit odd for the band - but it was a big hit! And now it is still more of an issue as nothing has changed in that weirdo country where they just have to have their guns nearby - and assault weopons mind you as well!
Glad thatthe cache was replaced
Thanks Croker Crew.

Read through logs, decided to do a maintenance drop until CO can check on position and container. Look for rocks behind tree.
Out for the day with Wollaston and Liz and Bruce with caching as our tour guide.
Thanks to CO’s for taking time to set out and maintain hides and for showing us your very special part of the world

On a mission to celebrate “someones special birthday” so we’re on the hunting trail in the NT with SeasonedBird, Liz and Bruce. Another great day for caching. TFTC Croker Crew

Find #7
Spending a few days in the area. Thanks for hiding this cache and giving us the opportunity to explore . Doing maintenance as required. Rocks.
No finds since 2018, nothing close to the photo from 2017 found, couldn't even find the throwdown jebjeb dropped a year ago. This cache needs checking, may have melted in fires over the last two years - especially since before that nearly all logs are finds and it used to be easy.
We couldn't find anything like all the others before us. So we placed a bag with a note at the given coordinates.

Very apt cache name given the backdrop. This has been a great trail so far and with lots of punchy witicisms and clever use of numbers and plays on words. TFTC
A few days in Darwin to get used to walking in the heat before hitting up the Kimberleys. Headed out to Lee Point in the late afternoon with an on-shore breeze, perhaps that was cheating. Anyway - enjoyed all the caches along here although missed out on a few (gotta leave some for next time). This was the first one I found with this type of fixing/container and it suited the location well.
Found with tassie expat while exploring this trail. Thanks for placing this series.
Fourth for the day while geohubby is off driving busses. There has been a bit of storm damage in this area and at first I was at a loss. Even resorting to the clue didn't help initially but I found it lurking behind some debris. Just realised I have put tomorrows date in the log book - sorry about that! Thank you for this terrific trail.
You just have to love If’s posts. Puts a smile on your face every time you read them. TFTC

This is a cache with a beautiful description and a lot of work put into it. In fact, I have to check if I've heard that song before.
I've taken on the track this morning with a bottle of water and some mossie spray in my backpack as instructed. All the boxes I found were in reasonably good condition. Some were a bit wet.
A couple of bikers and a lady with 2 friendly dogs was all I encountered along with plenty of birds and insects. Thanks for this trail!

Decided to come out and do this walk before continuing our adventures down along the west coast. Thanks to all for placing and maintaining caches along this area.
We're continuing our wanderings across northern Australia after attending the Red Centre Experience over Easter. Today I had Pa drop me at the end of the CCRB PT as I wanted to walk it and he had other obligations to attend to.
It was a fabulous walk, meandering through the bush on a warm but not hot day, a slight breeze helping to keep the temperature down and the mossies at bay unless I stopped too long at any GZ. The bird life was great and many was the time I wished that I had carried my binoculars, though I hate to think how long it would have taken me to complete the trail if I had. Loved the finches, honeyeaters, black cockatoos and doves. A magical place.
The search for each cache was varied - some very quick, others far too long, some really frustrating while others were absolutely delightful.
To all COs involved in my adventure today, a big shout out for placing the caches. I enjoyed the variety and the effort that went into them. A couple in particular are memorable and I will award them FPs.
All the caches were found and my name added to each log either as SG, stamped or signed as usual.

Taking advantage of the cooler morning temperature we set out today to finish off this trail.
This cache was found quickly on a lovely Darwin morning..
Thank you for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.

Now visiting Darwin after the Red Centre Experience.
The plan today was to head out for a full day of caching by Mr Felix on his Geo Bike.
Was a tough day with humidiity, heat and green ants, but he managed to find your cache today.
Thoroughly enjoyed this series, the hints being available certainly increased my enjoyment when I struggled.

Last one for my walk today before I had to turn around. Looking at the map now I wish I had pressed on and put off my plans for the afternoon - the walk was hot but I loved getting back on a trail again. TFTC
25/02/2017 11:06:00 AM - Today my caching mission is a visit to Darwin and this trail was my main target for today. I wasn't prepared for the humidity which made it a challenge but I enjoyed it all as I explored and managed to find this cache.
Thanks Croker Crew Cache is good condition and has spot on co-ordinates.

I set out early this morning and caught the buses to the Hospital thinking I would get a couple of the caches at the beginning of this trail but as I went along I got more and more involved and was enjoying myself so much I went all the way to the end grabbing as many caches as I could along the way The path was quite walkable with only a few places where I had to gingerly use stepping stones to get across the little fords I enjoyed all the caches on the trail and can tell the CO's that I found them all to be in good condition Please keep up the good work, you guy's are what caching is all about Thanks for all the caches Chingola from Guernsey
Found this on a trail run in the park, very fitting. Thanks for the clue and the hide.
Nice one for my 333rd find! Easy with the hint. Thanks again for this great series of caches
Had to take short cut thru bush to next track. Found it thanks. Greetings from Kununurra W.A
Another quick find on today's walk from CDU to CCRs 003 to 011 (I got 001 and 002 yesterday). A really nice series and the track through here is really lovely, with its cool shade (and despite its mozzies - repellent is a definite). TFTC and the series
Today we got up early to tackle this series before it got toooooo hot for us Tasmanian's. We arrived after solving the Mugglrland series and Mr "T" headed off while Mrs "T" completed a few caches on the way to the pick up point. I enjoyed this series and the variety of hides that I found along the way, all caches were in good condition making it a nice morning walk.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Found it!! Out and about with the GF "Kym's Adventure" on a Sunday cache run to see how many caches we could fit in one day. This was number 5 of 23. Loving the stories behind the names of your caches. Makes for a day of education also quick find here TFTC
This cache was found on a bike ride starting and ending at the hospital this afternoon
It was a very warm day indeed, so the shade from the trees was very much appreciated. I did enjoy this little trail a lot. Apart from chicken no other animals where spotted.
The caches were all found and not that difficult to spot - lovely [^].

Enjoyed the walk to find all of the caches along this track. Thanks for showing us.
I arrived near GZ and had to wait for a few riders to pass before heading to the spot I needed. The cache was soon found and after signing the log all was returned as found. On to the next.........
