I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, Hillz_Crew, 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 Required please.##
This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit, to address the issue described in the logs.
The cache owner needs to either fix the problem or archive the listing, after picking up any geo-litter. In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page.
See the maintenance section of the [Geocache Hiding Guidelines](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance).
If there is a good reason for a delay in enabling this cache, please post an update note log here on the cache page so that everyone will know what's going on.
When the maintenance is completed, you can re-enable the listing by entering an "Enable Listing" log, and then post an "Owner Maintenance" log to clear the "Needs Maintenance" attribute, if set.
I will check back in 30 days to be sure that the maintenance has been done, or that further information has been provided.
If there has been no action to repair the cache, or explain the situation, unfortunately I will need to Archive this cache. Caches archived because of lack of maintenance will not be unarchived.
The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.
Thank you

We are back camphosting at Mundaring Weir, so a good opportunity to explore some 4x4 tracks. But no luck here for us either!
Very hot and recent burn, may have perished, or I just wasnt looking hard enough. Please check though
Sad to say, but all good things must come to an end, or so they say!! Found this one early Monday morning after packing up camp and hitting the road for towards home, making a rather long day of it, stopping here, there and everywhere, hunting down smileys along the way. Had to give my driver a stern warning on the way to this one - thinks he is a gun rally driver or something, scared the living bejeezus out of me, lol. Found the cache after regaining my equilibrium and a short search. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for the rest of us to come and find Hillz_Crew.
Quick find heading home from our girls weekend at WAGB Northam! Found with Geogypsys Tftc
Out for a bit 4WDing on the Powerlines Track today and managed to fit in a couple of caches as well. Searched around for a while before resorting to PAF and then found the well hidden container. Probably would've found it without help eventually.
Hillz_Crew I found your cache at 10:32am, this was the 2nd of 2 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 5316. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

With an IT issue freezing the network at work and little prospect of an early fix I decided there were better things to do with my time, like geocaching around Lake Leschenaultia!
On the way back I stopped off here. This one's been on my radar for ages. Took several minutes of hunting but didn't take too long before spotting a likely spot and bingo! TFTC

Took a bit of a search but we eventually had the nice sized container in our hands. All in good condition here.
TFTC Hillz_Crew this is find # 5688 for us.

Found the cache while out on a hills run with Lazarus. I managed to find twenty one caches for the day with this being find number fourteen. This seems to be a popular spot with the 4WD crews as a number of vehicles pulled up before heading off down the power line track.
Thanks Hillz_Crew for placing and maintaining this cache. Out and about with Barnzy12 getting a few smily faces.
Out caching in the bush for the day, this one took a wide search effort; Barnzy12 making the find.
Thank you Hillz_Crew
Thank you Hillz_Crew
Out for a days caching with Lazarus68 east of Perth and trying for some GCA caches around these parts. Good day out. Thanks

Accompanied with Everlasting for the day after attended Australia Day event. Thank you for the cache
A hairy drive up the hill in my 2WD but made it there in one piece. A 5 minute search revealed the cache. A great spot. Have a fave point for the location. TFTC
On my way to Exmouth via the airport I decided to stop past this cache to retrieve the listed trackable and add some miles to it.
Arriving at GZ I find a car hooked up to a trailer with the owner nowhere to be seen or heard, well that suited me fine. Turning to the job at hand I wandered over to GZ which had me in the clearing at first and as the GPSr slowly settled, it brought me towards a dreaded rock pile
Abandoning the GPSr a methodical search began and a short while later I had the cache to hand .
After signing duties done I rummaged through and came up empty handed with the TB.
Thanks Hillz Crew was a fun challenge and I like the spot. [^]

Spent some time trying to find this cache and we were unsuccessful. There is lots of rubbish (cans and broken bottles) around, so maybe some muggles have disturbed it or maybe we were just not meant to find it this time?
Back again after CO confirmed in place. Bouncing GPS did not help so went for a systematic approach. Miss 13 won the prize here with cache at least 6m off from GZ. Tftc
Have checked on the cache after we got our 1st ever DNF and it is at GZ where its meant to be...
Spent a good hour looking for cashe... Wondering if maybe it has been put back wrong????
Thanks to m4yb and her looking after my animals at home I stayed an extra day up the farm which meant I left earlier - All cachers know what an early departure means..
I don't go into Northam on my normal journey to and from Wyalkatchem, but after picking up an injured Kookaburra off the road I detoured via Northam to drop it off at a specialised Wildlife carer. So of course while I was here I decided to grab a few more smileys from the many caches Northam has to offer.
This was stop off #11 on the way home, after a short detoured of the hwy and up the hill into a deserted area. Luckily I found this cache fairly easily with good co-ords. Because there are so many hiding stops up here. Dropped of a TB that wants to travel the highways. TFTC Hillz Crew

Where, oh where could this geo be. I finally found it after both geoteens had given up and gone back to the car. There are certainly lots of hidey holes. I think I checked every single one. TFTC
Found while on a short holiday exploring Perth and the surrounds.
After a long day finding over 100 caches mostly in the Wandoo series, it was time to find a rest area nearby. But not before one more cache - it was still only 1am, after all...
The cache was found easily under torchlight.
Thanks, Hillz Crew.
P.S. There's not much a (rental) 2WD can't do .

Nice find! The cache is in good condition. I felt sure it would be in the tree stump when I was walking over there, but I was wrong! Thanks for the cache, CO. And thanks for bringing me to this interesting spot.
Great spot. Not too hard to find. We have left vevetoy travelbug to contine his 4wd adventure in Australia. Safe travels!
After a lovely morning bike ride around Chidlow and surrounds I had some free time for caching so I decided to stay in the area. This was the last one on my way home.
I've wanted to find this cache for a very long time, but I'm usually with non-cachers, or don't have the 4 wheel drive with me, but today I did.
I was happy to make a quick find here, and I left the Skies op wereldreis Geocoin here. Thanks for the hide Hillz Crew!

Headed towards Mundaring with the kids & we made a detour to find this cache... The kids were very excited to be at the Powerlines, so they watched the never ending stream of fourbys & motorbikes heading off on their adventures I snuck away to find the cache & eventually found it after clambering around the place...
TFTC Hillz Crew! This is a great spot for a cache as we love this area, but such a shame that others think it is a dumping ground & a toilet

Nice drive up to the top of the hill, a really nice view of the sunset to boot. Quick easy find. Tanks for the cache, as well! Bahahahahah!
Dragged geohubby offroad, kicking and screaming. Quick search and we had this one. FTF certificate still there? Left it aline as we can't claim that one. SL TFTC
Awesome spot not where we thought it would be ! Found at 9:40 pm go the apple torch
Thanks for a great cache. GPS bouncing around a bit near the power lines but got there in the end.

I don't usually venture this far East with work but today was my lucky day. Thanks for the distraction and the cache is in good order. TNLN & TFTH.
Found while cycling home from Wooroloo. Avoid the large upturned tree stump which has become a public toilet. Cache in great condition.
Decided to make a quick stop on the way past. Took a bit for GPS on my phone to settle, but soon found the hidey hole!! TFTC
A quick find with iluvtrekking as we headed to York for the weekend. Parked within 16 mts of gz and quickly spotted the hide. Thanks Hillz Crew
Found with richlink while on a geo road trip to York for the weekend.
Thanks Hillz Crew.
Thanks Hillz Crew.
Nice one, thanks. About 3m out by my GPS but that'll be the trees. Lots of possible hidey holes but it was found within ten minutes. Biggest problem was the volume of goodies in the cache; could hardly get the lid back on!
Soooo. Ended up a super interesting night. 2 adults, 2 kids and a dog. Found the cache, jumped back in the car.. And it would not start!! Flat battery. Rain. Moon. Beautiful. Rescued by a friend who lives close all home now. Love an adventure. Glad I did not go alone.
TFTF. TeamCupcake you forgot you FTF Certificate! Left Scooby Doo, took necklace/bracelet.

JOINT FTF with JacobsCrew!
A last minute decision to go for this as the 3yo geotwins were tired and grumpy but mr 6 and miss 8 were super keen. Driving in I was really unsure as to keep going due to the Authorised Access only signs...my philosophy being it was on my maps function?! Saw a bloke leaving his car with GPS in hand...he ended up driving down too when he saw me go past lol...I was purely being lazy as couldn't walk in the whole distance with the twins. Upon arriving at the end of the road JacobsCrew and I had a laugh but I said he could have this one (pointless trying to get there first with 4 kids to get out and their boots to get on lol) Being the gentleman that he was he suggested a joint FTF. Mr 6 ended up finding it which was great given he was keen for that hot wheel car but huge thanks just go to JacobsCrew too. GZ was out by about 5-6m (possibly the overhead trees??) but overall a great cache with lots of awesome hiding opportunities.
Big thanks to JacobsCrew, great meeting you, kids thought you were awesome and we need to team up again they said lol.
Took hot wheel car and ball, left new yoyo and new necklace/bracelet set.

Joint ***FTF*** with Team Cupcake Oz at 4.45pm.
Finished work and decided to give this one a go. As I headed to GZ, There was a sign with unauthorised entry about 1.2km from GZ. So I parked the car near the sign and decided to hiked the distance but with in a few second another car zipped pass me so i thought it would be safe with numbers. Back into the car and off I went to join the other car. We parked about 50m from GZ and Mrs.Team Cupcake Oz was going to head off and leave it to me but I believe in joint FTF as it is only fair to team up, especially with the area with so many hiding places..It was about 5m off but was soon found by a Mr.6 in the Team Cupcake Oz...he got the prize plus we forgot the take the FTF certificate...It was great to meet another team on the road and we may meet again...TFTC Hillz Crew..
