Logs
I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, Stickyfeet, 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 being in need of an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache.
I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it checked by the Cache Owner.
The cache owner needs to:
* Investigate the situation and either restore the cache, or address any other issues, such as correcting the D/T rating if necessary.
* 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 Stickyfeet 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 there, and 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.

No joy again, saw a few DNFs before hand but thought I'd have a crack anyway. Chimney is still here but no sign of a container
Unfortunately we did not find, we spent a good 15 minutes looking. We think it was moved as looking through the previous finds, we found a photo marked "spoiler photo" and there was a picture of the hollow metal pole that we had found earlier. We checked inside again and there was nothing there. So sadly, we left empty handed
I have had my eye on the caches in this reserve for quite a while but was waiting for the right weather conditions & fitness levels & generally prevaricating. When the two new puzzles were published & soon solved I ran out of excuses & so we headed NOR. Perfect weather for the walk which took us 2 hours for all seven caches because we are generally old & knackered. We had fun though. TFTC
Collecting my race number for a trail run tomorrow and so thought I’d collect a geocache while I’m at it. Interesting host, thanks
Photo contains spoiler
I walked passed it, but my son was lifting things up and looking inside

Nice quick find here and came across from cachers that have recently come over from the UK

Last one of the day after a very long walk with the dogs and Brit5000, tftc and Pretty easy cache, bit of a bush bash to get to it and came across some fellow UK cachers! Thanks for the cache
Focused on something else, I initially went straight past it. Very appropriately titled. Managed to scratch in my name. TFTC Stickyfeet.
Last find of this very hot day. Container too hot to handle. Couldn't sign the log due to the crayon in the cache permeating the paper. Was able to make an impression on the back cover. Needs a new log book. TFTC

Crayon is now gone, I removed it.

Hailed from Kununrra to Perth , found it easy after short search. Hard to write log book with pen cos from oily substance smeared inside, signed at first page.TFTH
Great spot. The crayon in the bag meltet and left a mess on the logbook. Tftc
Found on a sunny morning walk in Neerabup National Park today. Took a short detour off the trail and soon found the chimney (it was very hot) and the cache! Thanks for the fun cache.
The last cache in the two series of caches places by StickyFeet. Great experience StickFeet thanks.
That was unexpected. Wondering if it was Emmet’s aquarium I passed in the way! TFTC
Great little find, had some great fun with the kids, left a little something too. TFTC
Exploring the trails around Neerabup, this was another cache find on our very long walk... This was an unexpected place along the trail in which Jase quickly made a find [^]

Out this morning for a looping walk to collect the Neerabup trail caches plus the Find 30 and a few others on the way Phew and so to the last one for today - fantastic walk with 16 finds, inc a multi & a mystery, with no DNFs No problem getting to GZ from the trail, it's only some light bush, and straight away saw ahead what I thought would be the hiding spot. I was wrong but soon after spotted something else which caused me to laugh - and of course there was the cache. So many questions though: was it here already, did someone carry it in just for this cache, who was/is Emmet and did he get himself another chimney? I guess I'll never know, lol. Anyway questions aside the container was a nice quick find, no problems here. Thanks for a neat hide to finish off my walk today - will definitely be back over here to explore some more. TFTC
