Logs
I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, peebles85, 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 peebles85 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 you

Found it - overgrown and under lots of leaves - it’s in a better spot off the ground - filled it with gifts
Our first hunt did not go as expected... Looked high and low but couldn't see any box.
Up North for the weekend collecting caches along the way. A bit cooler and rainy compared to the glorious weather yesterday.
We have driven around this area before but could not find the entrance then and given it was suburbia and the time of day there were people everywhere . Today studied the area before arriving and found an appropriate entrance to the reserve, all very quiet at gz so a nice quick find, log and replace . TFTC

Found on our Launceston holiday. A quick find. What a stunning area in the evening. TFTC peeblss85!
The cache was found in the last place we looked, which as usual was not the first place we looked. Thanks for placing a fun cache guys. We do love your work. We signed the logbook. Of course we did that is way we play this game. Cache in pretty good condition for the cache age.

Easter 2020 was supposed to see South Australia Geocaching hosting the next Easter big MEGA event, GeoVenture 2020 at Millicent. GC82DAN. Due to COVID restrictions the event is now postponed to early October 2021. Check out the event page and our website for new details. We would love to see you at this four day event. Mega event sponsored by Wattle Range Council, Geocaching.com and many other supporters. Lots of caches to find with two classic geo art trails including the famous animated bottle and glass.

This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and a Samsung S8. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs...
Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun.

quick find. cache needs new logbook urgently but otherwise it is in dry condition
out and about with Lil Rafa caching for the work days. easy find with clues. TFTC TNLN log dry. a new place I have not seen before.
Thanks for the cache peebles85.
Found today whilst on a short visit to the Launceston area with RLD4963. This afternoon we spent some time looking for caches in suburban areas. This was a nice quick find at GZ.

Found cache on ground, open and log saturated. Placed it where I thought it was meant to be.
Damn muggles!
Damn muggles!
Log saturate. Could not sign. TFTC. Found on our TASMANIA ALL OVER journey. Join us on Facebook page of that name.
Hey! I found the geocache and it seems like the elements got to it? It was strewn across the floor, open and wet. I've put it all back together but may need tending to
I’m staying nearby thought I would come for a search. With all the recent DNFs I didn’t have a lot of hope, so I didn’t even bring a pen. I did actually find it really quickly. I placed a tiny scrap of paper with my name on it and returned the cache. TFTC.
We looked for a while but no luck for us today.
Guess we'll have to watch it and return another time.

Thank you for the cache. Maggie the great GeoWestie caching with Carer. Lovely spot
In the last couple of days we've travelled from our native Hobart to Launceston for a bit of a Queen's Birthday long weekend getaway.
Today we spent a lazy afternoon caching to the west of Launcestion, including a short drive around Prospect. Naturally, we picked up this cache while we were at it!
Thanks for the hide, we had good fun tracking it down!

Impossible to find! I can’t find it! I looked everywhere for 2 hours and couldn’t find it!
I think someone took it!

Out on a cold morning to get a few new caches which have gone down since our last visit to Tas, TFTC
Hello peebles85 thank you for the cache.
I found this one easily as it was out in the open. Replaced a little better.
I wanted to find some caches so I could get some Hidden Creatures souvenirs that I can proudly display on my profile page that no one will see.
I travelled up from Hobart for this search.

Cleaned out the cache left the new dry log a new ziplock bag & some fun swaps for the kiddies tftc
I strolled into this hidden little park today.
And about 20 metres from GZ,
found a logbook lying out on the grass !! [:o]
Not a good sign.
At GZ under the gaze of faceless house windows,
I spied the cache container
Well somebody has put a new logbook in there at least.
So I signed it
The olde,
now dry but not really useable logbook,
was reunited with its cache
