###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

Hi there Cache Owner,
This cache has come to my notice as there is a 'Needs Maintenance' log that that indicates there is some sort of issue with the placement and it needs your attention please.
Check out the Guidelines here: [**cache owners responsibilities.**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance) If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to [**Disable the cache**](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) within 14 days,** 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:
- Check on the cache, repair and/or replace the cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked 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 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 (within 14 days). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. For ongoing issues (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to speed.
- If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**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.
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) it 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.

Had another look at this and the area of the coordinates has been mown and is now clear of most of the vegetation. see messages sent. and photos taken if required. I believe the Cache is gone but would be happy to find out otherwise.
Needs maintenance and may I humbly suggest a slight repositioning. Assistance offered if required, cheers bmtc18
There has been mowing around the coordinates but no cache as described found. Worth a check. Thankyou cheers bmtc18
No luck yesterday, nor this am. Not too many places you can hid an ammo tin around here ?? Oh well, maybe better luck next time round ! (sic)
Yay! Our first geocache find! Kids, bikes and dog, an all inclusive find. Great hiding!
Killing time waiting for Kenare’s car to be serviced I found myself close to this nice easy one. Thanks for the hide!
This is the first cache we went searching for and it so happens it was put there by a scouting colleague of mine. We used a mobile phone to search and while it got us within one metre of the cache, there was much fun and jubilation when we were successful. (BJ)
Was in Warrnambool for the day which gave me the opportunity to collect some smileys. This one had been on the radar for some time but due to muggles l never had the opportunity.
Found it today after a short walk to gz. TFTC, LS.

Traveling to Australia for the first time. Used littel time to faund some few GeoCach.
Good to find another cache while riding the rail trail. The directional signs on this end of the trail need a bit of work - best to peruse rail trail map and google maps before you ride, but eh its part of the fun. Pavilion cafe and beach scenery great at end of this trail.
Tftc. Found with Osclaire on our summer holidays in 2019. We were camping and then met some family.Then one of us was hurt so we went to go to a shop.
A nice break from the heat. Needs a new logbook as the current one is full. TFTC
This one has been the easiest one so far on the our current adventure but what a wonder walking track along the river !
Found this cache today and it is no longer x an ammo tin it is a sistma 400ml or thereabouts container. Travel bug was not found either so someone else has taken it and not logged it as such. Anyway TFTC.
Quick easy find. Muggles on the road but not many walking on the gravel path.

This cache was a mandatory one to grab for us, as we had visited these barracks many years ago, sleeping on the cold concrete floor. Ah the memories....
The cache was quickly located, signed and returned. Thanks,

a pleasant easy find in the glorious sunshine today. Plenty of muggles nearby but not one in the area when I was making the find, great stroke of luck! TFTC
The three of us couldnt find it today, despite someone apparently finding it yesterday!
First find on our holiday in Warrnambool
Nice easy one with the kids. Log is full, and waxy - hard to sign.
