### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUESTED PLEASE** ###

Hi there Sparra0907,

It looks like this cache might need some attention, as one or more seekers have indicated there is some sort of issue. The recent logs may contain more details about what sort of issues are evident.

The cache has been [**temporarily disabled**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=235), so as to remove it from search listings and discourage people from visiting this location, until the issues/s can be addressed.

**You do need to respond in some way within 14 days,** so others know you are on top of it, as well as indicating exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication scuttle this listing.

#What you need to do:-#
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-

- **Check On The Cache** - once checked, place an Owner Maintenance log and then enable the cache.

- **Place A Write Note Log** - indicating a date when you expect it will be restored.

- **Adopt Out or Archive** - depending on whether you want it kept or for it to disappear.

Full details for each of the above choices can be found at [**GEOCACHE MAINTENANCE**]( https://wiki.groundspeak.com/display/GEO/Victoria) on the Regional Policies page.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of the above. Well, when the cache is next checked by a Reviewer, if the issue has not been addressed, or there is no acknowledgment as requested above, it will be assumed the cache has been abandoned.

It would be far better if you decide, so please do something before then. Please don't send an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

Thanks for your cooperation,

Bunjil (Pete & Helen)

This cache is in need of owner attention - given it is now over 2 years since the last CO visit, without any finds in between, perhaps another visit is needed, to see if the container is still there and check that the coordinates are correct - within 3m of the GZ.

Really surprised the CO hadn't already checked on this one, given the location and flooding!

No luck at this one which is a shame. We have made this into a bit of a Sparra trip. Hopefully next time.

We looked high, we looked low, we looked in, we looked out, but today there was no way we could work this one out!
We're a tipp'n it's a miss'n.
Given the markings on nearby trees, unfortunately, the new container and swaps have probably been taken by the flood!

Thanks for the hunt anyway Sparra0907.

This cache had been muggled. We have replaced it with a new container, new log-book and all new swaps. It is in place now and all good to go again. Cheers. The CO.

Will check out this cache asap as soon as the border lockdown is lefted. Thanks and Cheers.

No luck today despite wide searching. Hasn’t been found in over 2 years so maybe a CO check is in order. (I might also have cache blindness) Thanks for the hunt anyway

No luck today ️

Oh faith is needed. A bit of blind faith and geo wisdom comes in hand when getting this tricky hide. This was the 2nd time looking as we seemed to have over looked the obvious the 1st time around. Great hide, amazing location. Thanks for bring us here we really enjoyed this one!

Oh what a lovely stroll in the bush and be careful of wriggly sticks.

With Fitzy_1965 we headed off towards the Murray River near Swan hill. Lots of driving with great river banks to be explored on four rivers along the way. Day 3. After a cockatoo filled night at Chah Singh Reserve we headed further towards Swan Hill, via the Wakool River and Toolybuc. We after a dash to the outskirts of Swan Hill we ended up camping near Nyah on the Murray River, no cockatoos this time.

Thanks.

15,142. Found during a long weekend run down through the Lockhart, Jerilderie, Deniliquin, Moulamien, Tooleybuc and Nyah regions with Albida33.

After camping down by the river near the cache Chah Singh last night, we packed up and continued along our planned caching trail. This was the next find for the day. Nice quick grab at GZ. Signed the log, returned the cache, and headed off to the next one.

Thanks to all the COs for putting out their caches !

Out and about today doing a bit of research for a couple of new caches
Well finally a smiley face for this one after a previous DNF
Nearly gave up but just had to have another look see
Bent the wrist a bit more and hey presto there she be!
Thanks Sparra0907 for the cache

Spotted by geodaughter!!!!

found very scary spot

A DNF for us. The GPS'r took us to a tyre lying out in the clearing but no cache.

Found it after a while

Looked and looked and finally snagged it

Finally finally finally

Maintenance check. Went for a drive today to check and see if this cache is still there. Yep it is. All nice and dry and waiting to be found. Cheers. Sparra0907.

I am thinking this one needs to be checked. Couldn't find a thing. And we literally looked everywhere. Even climbed up trees!!!

Very hard to find! Swapped a koala for a hair clip. Tftc.

Once again we log a DNF very frustrating to go so far and not find it.

Alas we have to record a DNF for this one.We did find the"this is not the cache" container pretty quickly which stated that we were close. The GPS took us within 2 metres of the non cache so we set out on about 20 metre search radius but to no avail. Oh well better luck next time.

Coordinates changed from:
S 35° 12.473 E 143° 41.303

Coordinates changed to:
S 35° 12.462 E 143° 41.315

Distance from original: 89.5 feet or 27.3 meters.
Muggled again.

Sully1 and I found the decoy but not the real mccoy.
Coords had the cache 12m over the fence, meaning the decoy was 22m away, with the note in it saying we were close. Maybe the Montana's were out, or perhaps it needs checking again. Hope for your sake it hasn't been muggled again, a very nice spot on the river. Thanks anyway Sparra0907

No joy for Bogonghazy and I here today on our trip from Ballarat taking in the Wedderburn events weekend, Swan Hill, Moulamein, Balranald and then across to Mildura. As BH has explained in his log, something doesn't seem quite right. Might be worth a check. Thanks for the hunt though.

NO WONDER I didn't find it. The co-ordinates have been changed since I loaded them. All I found was the false cache (see photograph). I searched around further wondering what the CO intended, but left without a find and annoyed [:(!]. I signed the false log anyway to show I was there.

Beautiful little spot. Very well hidden. Tftc

This cache has been muggled AGAIN, so I've replaced it in a different location. The new coordinates are:-

Tftc

Spent 2 hrs trying to find. I think it defently needs five stars.

Straight after loging the did not find. I hade another look. And come up with the goods.

Checked it out this morning. Cache A.OK. Its ready and waiting for a FTF.Sparra0907.

Found this awhile ago in pieces. Cache has been demolished.

Got pretty hot today and the flies were carrying us off will try again next trip to Swan Hill.
Thanks anyway Sparra0907
