###**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 regular 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) 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 22nd July,** 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 22nd July). 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, it is likely that I will need to 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 instructions posted above.

At a lunch time walk, came looking for this cache. Nothing obvious stood out for me at gz. CO intervention required.
This one hasn't been found since early April; could do with a welfare check.
Examined this lovely specimen very closely - I’m certain the cache has been lost/removed.
I reckon it's gone... looked at all the photos still couldn't find it... lots of the comments said it was fragile and it hasn't been found in a while
Sounds like a very interesting cache but I’m afraid we couldn’t get there. It’s possible we were barking up the wrong tree. TFTC anyway
Found location but couldn’t find cache That camouflage was obviously too good for me
Trauma probably brings a lot of people here. Visited roof tiler brother who fell a long way from a ladder last week. This stoic guy who sustained 8 broken ribs, fractured shoulder and clavicle, punctured lung, damaged kidneys and extensive bruising drove himself home first. He’s on the mend, so what next best thing to do? Geocaching afterward. I lived nearby in Athol St about 40 years ago and had forgotten how wonderful and grand these old trees are. Planning to get all 8 in next little while. TFTC
I'm out for a bit of exercise on my bike & to grab some caches. Good camo on this one! Thanks
Nice Cache but no way to get this out.. Photolog

5. März 2018 Thanks for the cache! I couldn't write on the paper. Very cool camo!
This week I had my first ever trip to Australia. This very anticipated visit gave me as well the opportunity to cache on my 35th country & 6th continent ... and that starts to count
So, on Saturday I did 8 caches or so, and on Sunday I walked over 15 km from Collins to the beach and back. I found 21 caches, visited 3 fantastic parks, enjoyed gorgeous weather, witnessed my first cricket match ever, walked on the roads where a Formula 1 price will take place, got a nice tan that will make my friends back in Belgium jealous, found my southernmost & furthermost cache ever, watched some interesting artworks, learn about geology, got lost a few times, got a thorn in my nose, got very dusty jeans, broke one nail, got many people looking funny at me, watched no koalas nor kangaroos (do you really have those animals here?) saw more people kite surfing than ever before, walked through two flee markets ... and had THE TIME OF MY LIFE !!
Thanks a lot to all Cache Owners in Melbourne, it was GREAT, and if you ever plan to visit Bruges in Belgium ... just let me know
Take care

After recommendations for this series at the event yesterday I had to come and give it a go. Thanks for a great cache.
This ones a real dank ‘ace-in-the-hole’. That’s cowboy lingo for a sneaky hiding spot, YEEHAAA.
Silly me. I had the cache in hand but then walked away. Geohusband then got the find.... How annoying. Haha. TFTC
Great hide thanks skakids it was camouflaged well and a very good cache,I did this one with amaali and will be going to spend the day doing yours.

Walked my way front central city to Yarra south today to find some geocache. This was one of them. TFTC Greetings from Belgium
Another easy find today! With the heat, that's a good thing! Thanks for the hide!

Quick park and grab on Boxing Day. Love the Camo on this one. Muggle was an issue when returning the hide. All good though. TFTC
Quick and easy find. On a well hidden cache. Our biggest problem was a dog walking muggle. Thanks for the cache skakids

Took a few circles to finally see the well concealed cache. This one is wonderful once found! Thanks Skakids!
Found it. Cool hiding spot.
Log is a little bit water damaged and was hard to get out of the cache.

Last one for the day, and this one took a little longer than expected. GPS was jumping around, and it wasn't until I stopped trying to use it and started looking at the area that I noticed the cache. Something just didn't look right. Bingo - there it is! Nice camo. Fave point from me. TFTC
A quick one with a nice camo, once we found the right location. We're in Melbourne for a shareholders meeting and wanted a quick cache or two. Tftc.
In the city as support crew for the Melbourne Marathon, so while my wife ran the race, the family went caching and cheered her on at various places around the course. Massive amount of people around but they all seemed so focused on the marathon we were were able cache unobserved in the open.
Walking to the cache, with all the different types of Nerf bullets laying around, a number of people must have had a Nerf War here. Cache was found after ignoring the GPS whose signal kept bouncing around. Interesting cache hide here.
Thanks for the puzzle Ska Kids

Good camouflage. No lid, log paper was water damaged and couldn’t get it out to sign
First day in Melbourne and first few caches done (17 to start with) while exploring Kilda and Windsor area in order not to overdo the first day with all the jetlag and stuff
Stash has definitely an amazing camo but indeed logbook calls for some maintenance as paper has been wet and hardened afterwards.

Nice find. Definitely a favorite. I love that it looks just out of place but fits in all at the same time. Log is a little tattered maybe a bag will help
No login in this cache but photo on request as we do not want to ruin the hiding space tftc
