Cache was found after a short search. Thanks for the fun. Cleaning up Victoria with gridge98. We are on a mission this week. Completing twenty finds in Mexican local government areas is the challenge. Another find with the correct criteria. It is in Victoria and we have not accumalated twenty finds in this local government area.Today was the day to find this cache. Today is Thor's day the seventeenth day of the octavus month of the Roman calendar in the wonderful year of twenty twenty four. We found your cache container and added some inky stuff to the paper sheet or note pad you have supplied for a log book or scroll. The cache container and log book or scroll were in good condition. It was a bit windy today. It was so windy today.With the log signed and the cache replaced it was time to leave. Onwards to the next cache. Woot, that is not to far.I would like to show my respect and acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the Land, and their continuing connection to it. I wish to pay my respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures; and to Elders past, present and emerging.I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count and winning that one hundred word diamond badge again. Somebody moved the goal posts. So many caches to find. So many caches to log. We find them, sign them and replace them.This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and an Apple iPhone 11 using the marvelous Cachly app. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs macro.Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun. Apologies for the generic part of the cache log. We do apologise for the generic logs. Thanks to all the cache owner for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke fr den Cache. Gracias por el cach.

A nice walk along the trail today, a good variety of hides that some need new co ords but other than that they are a bit of fun. Travelling around Victoria with Freddo for a week finding caches as we go. With two challenges on our radar we were in full force. All logs signed with our names or F+g98 for the smaller caches. Thanks for the cache
Didn't have a heap of time to look, but didn't manage to find it. A hint whether to look on the north/south of the track would be handy.
MTY Rail Trail (Are We There Yet) was transferred from Poiter.h to user grannyapple64
No luck on this one after abit of bush bashing. With a few previous dnfs we will keep an eye on this one for a future revisit.
Still on the very long straight. Looked heaps but needed to keep walking. Sorry Poiter.h but I just couldn’t find it.
Out again for a caching morning in the excellent company of Tiz13 with the target to find caches along the rail trail Well we must have arrived as this one was found with a short search TFTC Poiter.h
A tricky day hunting on the rail trail. Found this cache, but it is missing the log.
Finally came to find the missing cache in this trail. Happy that I can finally make it a smiley. Log paper was missing completely. Needs replacement. The cache was also filled with water. Tftc
Another quick when there is something to be found . Log was missing, but we’ll replace that next time we come out this way. TFTC
Checked on the cache today and found it was missing.
I have replaced it.
Happy Geocaching
I have replaced it.

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED**###
----------
I'm not sure of the legitimacy of the 'Find' log for 29/Dec/2020, so perhaps it's time for the CO to visit and check the situation - confirming the cache is actually at the listed coordinates, please.
**Cache has been Disabled pending CO investigation.**
Whilst it is recognized that as a result of the current COVID19 situation, it might not be possible for a Cache Owner to just pop out and check on a cache, we still need to know that you are on top of the issue.
CO's of caches disabled/requiring maintenance during the current COVID19 crisis will be given some extra time to react. Caches where the cache owner does not currently feel it is safe to maintain will not be archived in the normal time frame, as long as there is some indication from the CO. **Don't let a lack of communication kill this cache.**
#What should you do:-#
- Should you feel it safe for you to maintain and address this cache now, AND your regional Health and Governmental authorities allow it, please feel free to do so.
- **Alternatively, what you need to do is place a Write Note log indicating a date when you you expect you might be able to attend to the issue/s.**
**The Write Note log should be placed by 1st October.**
#Please Note#
When a Reviewer next looks in on the cache, if there is no acknowledgment from the CO as requested above, the Reviewer will assume the cache has been abandoned and process accordingly.

Another search with no luck. Too much scrub again, some hints on these ones would be nice
The Sun had come out and living in Baw Baw shire we were not locked down so I decided to head out for a day out of the house and a nice walk along the Moe - Yallourn rail trail, Gippsland has some great locations to visit and lots of caches that have not been found in awhile, so with my new caching gear gloves, sanitizer and mask. I had a great time touring around the area finding caches and exploring new places. took some time to find this one, the trouble with this supposed to be water proof paper is once it gets water on it the ink runs and it sure was hard to write on.
Thanks Poiter.h for the cache.

This one took us a bit of looking to find. A little off with coordinates but we got there in the end. Tftc
Not a big fan of this one.
Paper needs replacing, hard to writ on
Look for mushroom. TFTC

Found on 30th September with the Geokids while camping in the area. Thanks for bringing us to this lovely trail.
Waiting for some muggles on bikes to go past, we had searched for a little while but had to stop and eat snacks so as not to look suspicious. I spotted a couple of bits of wood that looked a little out of place and there it was! Tricky spot.
I had to be in Moe today to drop something off and so Ilukaperi and I decided to make a geocaching trip of it.
Ok, so all day so far I had been quite lucky and found most of the caches before ilukaperi did. This is NOT the way it usually happens, so I was kind of revelling in my new found geocaching skills. Anyway with 3 DNFs before us on this one I didn't have high high hopes and after a whle of searching I was about ready to give up, when the lovely cry of "Found It" came through from ilukaperi.
I think nature had had a extensive role in providing some extra natural camo for this one so for her to find it where she did was pretty amazing. Great hide, but an absolotuely astounding find. Finally ilukaperis skills had come to the front for the day, and just in time too.

Thanks to the last finder for putting this back in the right place. I forgot to bring some swag, but there was no room for any in this one (so tiny)! TFTC!
We found it but it was on the wrong side of the track. We put it were it was meant to be.
A big thank-you to Teammoss5 & grannygeo64, for preforming cache maintenance for me.
Happy Geocaching

DNFd on the way down but after finding the others I came back for a quick find here. Log is so wet I couldn't sign it but took photo as proof of find. TFTC!
Finally found one! We have looked for about 6 so far today without much luck (we are beginners)
Give up because of two muggles keep round with their motorbike.
I feel not right for me today so better not continue and will come back with during the week day.
DNF for me today.

DNF for me today.
Found by Geo kids and muggle Nanna, they were walking Nanna's dog Missy and our Geo kids suggested they do some of the trail. Its taken awhile to work out exactly which caches they found as they didn't log found strait away and it was unclear. All sorted now. TFTC Poiter.h its always nice to find one of your caches
### **OWNER ACTION NEEDED?** ###
Perhaps it's time for the cache owner to make a visit to this cache as it would appear to be in need of owner intervention. I am temporarily disabling it so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.
Geocache maintenance is a cache owner responsibility and includes regular visits to the cache to ensure it is in proper working order. Your prompt attention to any log that indicates things could be amiss will be greatly appreciated by all geocachers, have a read here: [Cache Maintenance Guidelines.](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance)
The guidelines advise; **if you can't fix it straight away then Disable it till you can.** This Help Centre article tells you how it can be done; [Temporarily Disable and Enable.]( http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 )
**Please respond to this situation within 28 days - so as to prevent the cache from being archived.**
If you require more time, please be sure to post a "Write Note" log (not an email) explaining the situation and **indicating a date** when you believe you will have the issue resolved. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to date, or the cache will be treated as an abandoned and archived without further notice.
**And don't forget,** once you have addressed the issue, post both an "Owner Maintenance" log, see here; [Removing the Needs Maintenance Icon](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and an "Enable Listing" log, see here; [Temporarily Disable and Enable ](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) to get your cache up and running again.

Found on the ground again only with the lid under a tree that may be marked for removal (has a red paint spot)
Tftc found on the ground no container. Found with NoonaB put back where we thought it belonged.
Found this one on the ground and without a lid. Seems other cachers have had the same problem. We put this back in a place where it would be a little concealed but have no idea where it was meant to be. Would be nice if the CO could come out and fix.
Found log on ground without container. Called Poiter and let him know. Placed in a spot but not sure if that's where it's meant to be.
1420-1425, and 1440-1450 had a good look around. Didn't know I was 'supposed to be looking only for a lid', but couldn't find the log either. Probably needs another check.
Nice quick find. No container, only a lid but the waterproof log can still be signed. TFTC!
Nice quick find, though after reading through some logs first, I kept searching too high up... Thanks for the cache
