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Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived.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).

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###
----------
I've noticed this cache is carrying a maintenance log which really does need to be addressed by the cache owner.
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)
It does not appear from logs that the CO has visited this cache recently, so it is being Disabled to remove it from search lists.
**There needs to be a response to this situation (or intentions indicated) 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.

Container isn't sealed from water. The paper was wet. Might need a sandwich bag for the paper. Cheers mate
GPS was bouncing around a bit, once it righted itself it was an easy find. TFTC!
A nice drive up to here from Orange. We stopped for lunch and had the place to ourselves. TFTC
Nice easy one. I phone coords needed resetting but in the obvious spot. Picnic here today with the geodog. Great spot. TFTC
After a drive to the top of Mt. Canobolas we stopped at the nearby tea shop for refreshment and while waiting l made a quick find. TFTC.
Our first cache for so long! It has been 15 months since we geocached. Visiting Orange on a beautiful Easter weekend. Using the new geocache app for the first time so a little confused. Found the hint and then decided it was referring to a species... until I tried to explain it to geo teen. He looked at me as if I was an idiot and then I understood. Other geo teen braved the location and retrieved the cache. A lovely spot and good place for a cache. Thank you. Signed the log and added our path tag.
Found it in a good spot on a hot day!
It wasn't camouflaged at all so have added a little extra.
Logbook was wet and full so needs some attention.
This was my first find before Mr CT as he usually finds them first

Found this cach after going to the top of the mountain, unable to log as there is no more room, found this cache with McCauley4
Went for a hike at Federal Falls... lunch at the tea house, then found the Geocache.
It needs another piece of paper or book to sign as the current one is full.

11236. 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.
After finishing the Lake Loop we drove up here through some road works (on a Saturday??) and arrived at the park. Searched a couple of trees and SDL came up with the goods. Log signed, cache returned, and we were off to the next one.
Thanks Danthesouthsfan !! Good result in tomorrows game !

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!
After completing the Lake walk/ride series, we continued our geomission along to this one. Weren't sure which tree at first but SDL managed to make the find here
Thanks for the hide, Danthesouthsfan

A weekend trip up through this area with SpecimenX, AngelG27 and fitzy_1965 to grab a few caches up around these parts. Covered a bit of ground and found a great range of caches. Always good to get away on a group caching run.
Thanks for this one Danthesouthsfan. Nice to find another one of yours after a few years.

Fitzy_1965, SpecimenX, Sol de Lune and I (logged as "FASS") headed from Canberra to Orange and surrounds for a caching blitz over the 30-31 July weekend. We logged around 1000kms in the Geo-Jeep, selecting those caches that Fitzy had not previously found. I scored around 130 caches for the trip. The visit was characterised by blue skies, very green paddocks, lots of water off and on the road, a fair amount of mud, and good company! Still plenty of caches to collect and scenic spots to explore on a return trip. Thanks to my fellow travellers for a fun weekend, and the COs for all their efforts in putting out and maintaining the caches.
42nd for the day at 1115 (47th for the trip). Drove here after finishing the lake series - met some road works on the way. We had no idea which was the tree of choice, but we picked a likely candidate to search, and SDL came up trumps! Thanks Danthesouthsfan - hope your team is playing up to standard!

I found this one on the 13 June 2916 and I forgot to log it. Found with the geowife after waking Federal Falls. TFTC.
After a 2 1/2 hour hike around the Federation Falls loop decided to celebrate with a cache. Co-ords were all over the place but soon had cache in hand. TFTC
On a Flippers end of year trip swimming and having fun in the Orange district

After visiting Mt Canobolas and driving back into Orange stopped off to find this cache, which we did. TFTC
After visiting Mt Canobolas we thought we should find a cache before heading back into Orange. Lovely little park. Thanks.
Nice easy one for family fun down low and safe for kids. Thanks. Took nothing and left a nice blue feather we found on our hunt.
Found our first travel bug. Hooray! Left him sleeping there for now till we get better at this LOL. Nice size container to find -
watch for the blackberry spikes

Nice hiding spot! Wonderful treasures! Plenty of room for more swag. Log is full.
Could have parked much closer to this cache than we did and saved a walk through the mud, never mind soon had CIH when a muggle arrived.......nothing to see here!

#239. Found today with meals 5 after a trip to up the mount to find an earth cache for International EarthCache day. TFTC!
Relatively easy find. A nice area but sadly neglected. Didn't take any items (left them for the littlies).
Found. Coordinates out by a few meters.
Two of the listed TB's not there.
Left a TB.
Needs a new log

Fortunately we did not need to resort to the hint because we have no idea what it means. Cache was found in good order, still containing plenty of swaps. We took the geocoin. TFTC.
The hint made no sense at all. Lots of old bluestone huts around here, the shelter would be handy if you miss judged the weather up around the mountain. Easy find TFTC
Back after a long absence .... Nice little cache to start the day! Thanks for hiding it.
A late drive to Orange to cross a date off.
Made a quick find as it was getting dark. Tb out coin in.

On the way down from the mountain & stopped by this little park / picnic area – cache a little damp but OK - TFTC / TFTH / SL
The sadisitc GPS took us to the wrong tree and laughed (I am sure it did) as I got tangled in blackberries. But we got the cache without more damage - nice to see a large container. TFTC
It was spotted in the second tree we looked out - without the blackberries. No one around today so no pressure. TFTC
Came out to this one as the planned cache for the calander day was not doable due to muggles.
Even this one had muggles at the shelter but they were packing up so I hung around to make the find.
The cache was easily located and log signed.
The listed TB isn't in the cache though.
