Logs
I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, Coco_01, requesting additional time.
An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.
Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

###Cache Maintenance Visit Required please.###
This geocache has been brought to my attention as needing an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache. See the [GCHQ Health Score](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713) process.
I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it checked by the Cache Owner.
The cache owner needs to:
* Take action to restore the cache or address issues such as correcting the D/T rating.
* Re-enable the cache by posting an Enable log
* Post an Owner Maintenance log to advise what has been done and to clear any Needs Maintenance attribute which is present.
Otherwise :
* Post a Note Log to request more time if necessary or provide other information..
**Do not use an Owner Maintenance log for this. That is for use only **when you actually do something to repair the cache**.
Alternatively:
* Archive the cache, and remove any remaining geo-litter from the site.
In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page to await owner action by Coco_01 and to take it off the playing board to prevent further geocaching community inconvenience.
[Please see the maintenance section of the Geocache Hiding Guidelines.](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance)
**I will check back in 30 days** to see that action has been by the CO.
If nothing has happened, I will assume that the cache has been abandoned, and, unfortunately, I will need to Archive this cache.
*Caches archived because of lack of maintenance/abandonment will not be unarchived.*
The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is in good condition, waiting to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.
Please see [my profile page](https://www.geocaching.com/p/default.aspx?u=Balayang) for additional information.

Had a good look on the 20th December and contacted cache owner. Still had no reply.
Sadly with so many DNF its fair to say this cache is gone.

Couldn't find it and spent about 20min looking, maybe discovered and moved by muggles?
Scratched around at the coords and within a wide range of GZ, found the sculpture but nothing near it either, the previous logs are quite conflicting also
Having to bring my granddaughter back to Margaret River was an opportunity to find a few smilies on the map. Thanks to CO’s for placing and maintaining
It started out as a very wet day today but the rain started to ease up as the morning progressed. We arrived here with ilook4geo and went on the hunt.
This cache was found without any problem and two more names were soon added to the log to record our visit. Thank you to Coco_01 for placing this cache.

Had a good day today caching along with goingplaces2, especially after the weather had fined up. Found this one OK and with the log being signed it was time to continue with the hunt. All was in good condition. TFTC.
An easy find - certainly not what we were expecting from the posted difficulty and not quite at the posted location - but a nice find nonetheless.

This cache was a little confusing as was expecting it to be more difficult based on the rating, it was a little off the gps coordinates and wasn't associated with the sculpture. Found something though! (Wasn't magnetic)
Staying in Margaret River, I had planned to do quite a bit of caching, but it has been pouring with rain, and we had both flu and covid vaccinations, which slowed us down, so not much caching has been achieved. Oh well. I was determined to get one cache here, and this was the one.
TFTC, took the kids out to the skate park and found this one nice and quick
Nice to get a smile after a couple local DNF.
Easy find, difficulty 1.5 perhaps. TFTC

Came by bus from Augusta to Margaret River and had some time before our journey continued. We really liked the skate park and the youth center and it was fun to watch the action everywhere. Thanks!
We visit our family in Margaret River and walking to the center. Find some labcaches and this one. Thanks for the cache.
Greetings from the Netherlands.
Greetings from the Netherlands.
Down in Busselton for a long weekend, making use of a spare bed made available to me for the weekend. This was one of the finds made.
After dinner and a beer in the park at the Northern end of town, I swung back here to see if things had quietened down. Was able to make a quick find of the no longer magnetic cache. Cheers Coco_01!

Wandered around towards GZ and a bit of scratching around soon had the cache in hand, about 5m from where I was being pointed.

A final weekend getaway before the school year starts to grab a bunch of caches with good friends SirFancy, Meme28 & I C Nothing (SMIC).
Day two had us completing our version of the cape to cape experience.
The morning was filled with caching around Dunsborough & Yallingup getting my name on the last of the WAGB Challenge caches.
We lunched at Yallingup Maze before heading all the way down to Augusta and starting to make our way back northwards.
The day finished with some more adventure labs in Margaret River and dinner and the Settlers.
Not satisfied enough we grabbed a few more finds on the way back to the accommodation.
I finished the day with 36 finds, 18 adventure labs, 18 challenge signed and 1 DNF.

Thanks Coco_01 for placing The Sun, The Moon & The Star for me and others to find.
I added my name to the log at 17:56 on 29/1/2022.
This is find number 4003 for me.

A road trip south with the team found this cache in good condition and logged as Team SMIC! Cheers
Day Two of the SMIC(SirFancy, Meme28, I C Nothing and Cirrus_WA) weekend, we started out in Dunsborough and headed to Margaret River.
We grabbed many labs, multi’s, mysteries and challenges.
I’ll sleep well tonight.
Congratulations to Cirrus_WA’s 4000 find during today.
This is my 1422 find.
Thank you Coco_01 for placing and maintaining this cache.
Geology rocks but Geography is where it’s at!
(I’m not a geologist I just like puns)

Meme28, Cirrus_Wa, Sir Fancy and I C Nothing are hitting the road for a caching weekend with many caches in our sights. A weekend of many laughs and hopefully a few challenges we will qualify for after this run. All caches were found in good condition. Logged as SMIC.
Not near the sculpture and not magnetic
But a nice addition to our Margaret River caches

Exploring Margaret River for a few days. Quick find once we were looking in the correct place. Thanks Coco_01 for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.
Here we are having another fantastic day in the Margaret River area. This morning we collected all the information for the two local Adventure Labs Many aspects of which were in the downtown area and then a few of the elements were out of town in very interesting spots. Given we were in town we explored the shops for a while and generally had a good look around before heading down to the beach areas and the actual mouth of the Margaret River . It was still and warm in town and yet it was totally blowing a gale and quite chilly at the coast. Of course we picked up a few geocaches along the way and unfortunately quite a few dnf’s today.
We had been near here earlier in the day collecting info for the Adventure Lab and as we didn’t want to break the flow of that we decided we would come back here later. It was much busier at this time of day with lots of muggle mums and dads picking their children up from the nearby childcare centre, in hindsight it probably would have been easier to get it this morning. A far bit of stealth needed but we got there in the end and then hint and info didn’t seem that helpful the gps in the other hand was spot on we located, logged and replaced cache. TFTC

TFTC Coco_01, non magnetic plastic container found, log & cache in good dry condition.
Apologies for the late log. I only recently (re)discovered this list of caches which I had picked up on my drive back from a very enjoyable long weekend in Margs. Fairly busy here today so took a while to search as lots of interruptions. I also knew from previous logs that this one was a bit different what was expected. After searching all the usual spots and then widening further I finally made the find. Coords were good though so should have made the find sooner! TFTC
A nice quick find here this afternoon, guided by the GPS and great coordinates. Thank you for the cache Coco_01.
Found by geokids after following clues from other people. All in order. Thank you
TFTC Found it following comments from others. Not by sculptures, but nearby. Not a metal mint tin- plastic cylinder.
We found it! yay! we went in circles a couple of times but found it with a couple of bugs. Great find so much fun.
Tftc Coco01. Had time this morning before brekky to go and hunt some local caches b4 things got busy in town. Looked for 5, this was 1 of 3 found. Rest of the day spent on a local tour bus sampling wine, beer and chocolates.
Took awhile of searching and reading back through logs before blink finally found this one. Great hide but the description definitely needs an update. TFTC Coco_01
Spent ages looking but still could not find followed all clues and hints and ended up driving home with a never to be seen before sad face on our map
Another skate park for my grand kid to rock it on while found the cache. Not magnetic and not a mint tin but not hard to find.
Taking a 4-day weekend to chill out down here and eat food with my lovely other half, Spiderlance.
I actually saw the cache location pretty quickly after arriving at GZ, but decided not to look at the hint threw me off. After reading through logs saying the hint was inaccurate, I went back and indeed, that's where it was.
Log is full as others have mentioned. I think it's neat that this was placed as part of a Scouts presentation! TFTC.

Quick find by steffles after reading up on the other logs. Chill day watching people who can are good at skateboarding
Down to watch my son play footy. Luckily the spot was blocked by piles of 4WDs so I was sheltered from all the muggles. TFTC
After spending some time visiting the farmers markets this morning and checking out the Main Street, we decided to come and find this geocache.
It took us some time before we could 'make our move', as there was one particular muggle that was parked outside the geocache and would not move!
When we finally had a chance to find the cache, it was not what we expected. Owner, could you please update the description as it certainly does not match where the geocache is now hidden (spoiler: the hint (magnetic) is not right). Please also note that the small logbook in the cache is also full, so this will need to additionally be replaced.
Thanks anyway Coco_01 for the hide. TFTC!

Out with oldmorty this afternoon in search of a couple of geocaches.
Nice quick find.

Nice quick find.

It was my birthday and I'll geocache if i want to! Grabbed this one after rehearsals at the nearby Heart theatre.
Had to find one in Margaret River after watching little athletics country championships. The log is very near full thanks for the cache
After some perseverance we found it. And discovered a travel bug! The was no other trinket here. We will bring one back. ️
Glad I read the hint to go with the co-ords. Most peculiar set of directions, when faced with the reality of the terrain. But the co-ords, oh yes. And no, no magnets involved. Very muggley area.
Found on a few days In Margaret river before heading to Collie to finish off the Bibbulumum track. Thankyou for the cache
While in this beautiful town found with cullum68 between the showers of rain thanks for the cache
Post a winery tour I made a brief stroll around town in the dark. Hint had me checking some areas, coords another. My advice - trust the coords
Down for the weekend, getting the odd cache or two, plus some fishing with a mate.
This was an interesting cache as the hint says it is magnetic. But it isn’t.
Also, it is my 1000th find; a milestone of sorts, and far from home in Sydney.
