I am archiving this cache due to the unfortunate lack of action taken to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, Johnson and Johnson, requesting additional time.Despite ample opportunities provided for the Cache Owner to respond, their silence leads me to the conclusion that the cache has been abandoned.In such cases, archived caches will not be unarchived, and as a result, this location is now open for the placement of a new cache by another interested party.Thanks,BalayangCommunity Reviewer - Australia

### 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 Johnson and Johnson 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.Thank youBalayangCommunity Reviewer -Australia

Unfortunately I was unable to locate this cache today. I will add it to my list and hopefully return soon to claim the prize.

Knew a nano on artwork at night might be a bridge too far and 15 minutes of searching proved enough to call it quits tonight, will be back with more motivation and light next time.

Decided to spend some time this morning with myself and my GPSr and the car with the plan to clear some caches between home the the SWH.

The day was not to warm, but at time hot, but still, nice to find these little prizes in the Bush. Some I made more difficult that they needed to be, and only 3 DNFs today.

Cool Thanks Johnson and Johnson for bringing me to this location. I found the cache at 11:26:00 AM. This was my 19 Find for today out of a Total number of 27 for Today. The cache was found in Good Condition and I returned the cache as I found it.

This find brings my total number of Finds to 3708.Big Grin

Tftc - last one before high-tailing it home after driving down to rescue our toaster from it’s abandonment at our church youth camp
Searched all the artwork and concluded that the only place it could be was where we found it but was a tricky little one to get to... finally Driving Mrs D. came up with the tiny little thing
 
02-Oct-17
A tricky find.
Yay! Out caching with Team 8Ball and Cassie & Co.

Down from Geraldton enjoying the drive and the scenery with Team Bastholm and Cassie &Co. Thank you.
 
02-Oct-17
Found out with Del And Toni
 
Time to start our journey north back to our Geraldton home, with caravan in tow we were still able to stop and find a few more geocaches - this was one of several we found today.

We found this cache hidden very high up, I aren't short - standing on tippy toes I was only just able to hook it out using my pen. I must admit I was slightly worried I might flick it out of sight luckily I didn't. After signing the log I replaced it slightly lower down so that the next finder didn't need to be over 6 foot tall, after all it is only a 1.5 terrain.

Ian & Sue - Team Pathfinder uses T.P. to sign smaller logs.

TFTC headed out today as B12 was working for the most of the day. So decided to go to caches that he has found and I haven't as yet, with the rare days that we are not together caching.

Steve eventually finished and met me to collect a few together.

Some great camo caches in byford were found and some great containers hidden also.
