Sadly unsustainable

### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED PLEASE** ###

----------

Hi there baluke,

This cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as a cache that **MAY** need some attention.

You may recall having received an automated email from Geocaching HQ which explained what you needed to do.

Unfortunately, nothing seems to have happened, so the cache is being temporarily disable - see here: [**Geocache Health Score.**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713)

**You do need to respond to this enquiry in some way within 14 days, so others know you are on top of it, as well as indicating exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication scuttle this listing.**

#What should you do now:-#
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-

- **Check On The Cache:-** Visit the cache to check, repair, replace or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the logs of praise to roll in.

- **Place A Write Note Log:-** Reviewers are not mind readers, so without your note on the cache page explaining that the site works are on-going, or you have been in hospital, or the area is in flood, they can't tell what is going on with the cache.
You need to post a note to the page (within 14 days) explaining the situation and when a Reviewer next looks at the listing, all will be fine for a little bit longer.
Be sure to indicate **the actual date that you expect to have it fixed** so that everyone knows you are on top of it. If you have a long term unavailable cache (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 4 to 6 weeks, so as to keep everyone up to speed.

- **Adopt/Archive:-** If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another Geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**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.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of the above. Well, when the cache is next checked by a Reviewer, if the issue has not been addressed, or there is no acknowledgment as requested above, it will be assumed the cache has been abandoned and processed accordingly.

Honestly, it's better for you to decide, so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

Thanks for your cooperation,

Bunjil

Doesn’t look like it’s there, looked for a good 15mins

No luck today. Perhaps it’s gone.

Looked everywhere high and low

Spent a while looking, did not find.

Nup

An unfortunate dnf to finish our trip today, me and thestorm_bringer searched for a while but unfortunately couldn't find it, tftc Baluke!

Hmm a little disappointed. I m sure I combed the GZ area. Bend Low & swap all Low. Nothing. The last find was in Jan 22 , quite a long time ago. Not too sure if cache is still in tact. Greetings from Singapore . . This would have been my 2nd find of the day, if found. What a waste, spend closed to 30 mins here. Lots of runner, walkers , bikers, passing by. They must be curious except for one elderly man w dog, stop to asked. Don think he heard of geocaching.

Look hard, no need to jump fence, can find from bridge

Found it nice and easy spot

TFTC! Nice and easy find.

Good hide. Log book needs updating, although I forgot to bring a pen anyway.

Nice, easy find. Could probably do with a new logbook soon, but still signable. TFTC

Nice and Easy - just been here on the bridges multi. Found this one on our return wanderings.

Second one kinda fun but it was little

Got it! Think it needs maintenance because it's wet and yukky but a great spot!!

Logbook destroyed, unsignable

Found it. Good little hide.

Clever! Surprised a few muggles

Found it.. a good safe find

Condition of the cache has seen better days but great hiding spot

Just out of sight. There’s a bit of water damage

Good fun to find

Found it! Log book is distroyed though.

Thank you! Log is water damaged, will come back and out fresh paper in

Last day of the school holidays so we thought we'd better make time for a cache or two.
This one was found easily using the hint. A great hide in a great location.
Unfortunately the log seems to have seen better days, although it is still signable.

Thanks for the cache baluke.

Good hiding place took a while but found it eventually

Good hiding

Could not find it - cut myself in the process from the plant blades ️

TFTC

??

A little tricky but very close to the point on the map.

Found it

Easy TFTC

Great Find! TFTC!!!

Found while I short walk on way to optomotrist appointment. Hopefully after this appointment I'll have less difficulty reading small print in log bookstftc

Looked everywhere for an hour but still couldn’t find it! Hope to find it in the future though! Good luck

Found! Thank you.

Found it TFTC

Nice spot. Took me almost 10 minutes and falling off the bridge to find it. Great it’s in a safe spot.

Cache needs some TLC, bit of moisture damage to the log book. Thanks!

Nice one thanks!

Good hide

Found

Found it pretty easy log was not in good enough condition to write in it but was a nice easy find for a cold quick walk ! Thanks ️

TFTF. A bit water damaged but managed to log anyway! Great hiding!!

Thank you for the cache. It’s a huge bridge and quite a scary feeling standing on top and looking down at moving cars

A nice easy find prompting a walk on a chilly but otherwise nice day! Unfortunately the contents of cache has been badly damaged by water (see photo). Couldn’t log due to this, but will return another time to do so if the log book is replaced. TFTF

Looked around but no luck!

Tricky

TFTC

Think trolls with fresh breath. The mag clue is very helpful

Tftf

Looked as much as we could , no sign anywhere

A bit damaged and had some bugs inside.

Awesome spot!

Magnificent

Plenty of muggles about on such a nice day - had to be sneaky! TFTC!

Good hiding spot.

This one didn't take too long as there weren't too many places it could be. I have driven under this bridge many times but this was my first time actually on it. Log had seen better days but is still dry and functional. TFTC

The description don’t lie. Nice

Thank you. Great find

Thank you!

First cache find after Iso. Great hide, took a little bit but eventually found it.

Found it on the 3rd of May. Found eventually. Not easy

Done

Brilliant hiding spot! Very creative

Tftc.!

A tricky one hint it’s in a mint container

Clever to use the magnet to hide it

Little trick but nice

Ooh this one was a little tricky!!

A lovely afternoon for a walk along the Koonung Creek Trail from Wetheby Road to Springvale Road and back.

Just a slight detour here to pick up this handily placed cache. Waited out a couple of muggles, then found a moment while some others were absorbed in watching the traffic from the middle of the bridge. TFTC

Yay!

Found it, forgot to bring a pen

Thank goodness it wasn't over the freeway! TFTC

Haven’t been on this track before. Geo dog is enjoying herself. Thanks for bringing me here & TFTC

A quick easy find while wrangling an impatient geodog in one hand and a hat desperate to make a daring escape down the freeway in the other. TFTC!

I'd missed this one quite some time ago and decided to make a successful search a priority while on today's bike ride alongside the freeway. Ready for a lengthy look, I couldn't believe my eyes when I spotted the cache at 12:25 before I'd even parked the bike. How did I miss it last time? [8)] Oh well, at least now it won't haunt me any longer as I drive down the freeway.

TNLNSL, although a couple of our geocoins had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks (at last) BaLuke.

Ended up being a nice easy find.Thanks for the cache. Find No. 1014

Nice!

I’ve been having lots of trouble with my GPS but luckily a few previous logs were enough hints for me to find this one!

Found it about 1.5 metres away from the point on the map

Touche ricochet. Just another detour on a cold Melb winters day. TFTC

First for a while.
Thanks for the hide
As previously mentioned.
A bit damp.

Found it, thanks! Log book is pretty damp.

A bonus cache while following up on a multi. Very pleased to not have to go further out - the speeding traffic is very unsettling if you look down. TFTC.

Nice hide. TFTC

Easy find for this one. Little harder to remain inconspicuous, good thing no one round at 3pm on a Monday. TFTF

Found it! Very cleverly hidden, liked the camouflage tape.

Such a good hiding spot it was quite difficult for a second find the logbook was full and soggy more micro than small thanks for an entertaining hunt

Found it

Found it! Thanks

F(H)ound it! #3040 @3:40 PM

I am down from Queanbeyan, visiting the out-laws for a week or so.
Joining the Sister Outlaw for a bit of birthday caching.

I made this one a little more difficult than necessary but was still within the bounds of a reasonably easy find.
We wandered onto the bridge where it was quite bracing in the windy weather
Thanks for the cache BaLuke

Ridgeo-pup pic attached

Gosh that traffic is noisy!
Found quite quickly before crossing the bridge to find another cache. Crusty K9 wasn't real pleased by the traffic noise, but coped okay. Thanks BaLuke.

Easy find

Suscoe had a delightful day out in this area.
It was a sunny day with a gentle breeze every now and again.
We enjoyed the streetscapes in this area, a mixture of older homes and some new large builds. We also liked the walking trials too.

Thanks to Baluke for this hide, a quick find and sign, the postie rode past on his bike which was a nice touch.

Great hide

This cache was very close to a mystery cache I had solved. So it just had to be found. Great spot for a cache.
