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

----------

Hi there Fred&Mandy,

It looks like this cache might need some attention, as one or more seekers have indicated there is an issue. The cache has been temporarily disabled, so as to remove it from search listings and discourage people from visiting this location until the issues/s with this cache can be addressed.

**You do need to respond 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 and repair and/or 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 (unfortunately), so without your note on the cache page explaining that the site works are on-going, you have been in hospital, the area is in flood, or some other reason that has prevented attending to the cache, they can't tell what is going on.
So please just post a note to the page (within 14 days) 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 those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when a Reviewer next looks at the cache page, it is likely that they will, unfortunately, have to de-list (Archive) on the basis that it has been abandoned.

Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

**JUST A TIP:-** Have you checked out the Geocaching Dash Board designed to assist a Cache Owner in managing the caches they own? Have a read about it [**HERE.**](https://www.geocaching.com/blog/2020/07/welcome-to-the-cache-owner-dashboard/?newsletter=PM) You will find your very own dash board [**HERE**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/owner?utm_source=geocaching&utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=COD).

Thanks for your cooperation,

This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache. The log is very, very, very wet and needs replacing.

Currently holidaying in Lakes Entrance and the weather overall has been pretty wet to say the least. After visiting the nearby Trestle Bridge, we stopped in here on the way back to our accommodation to explore this area and find the cache which we did. However, the log is very, very, very wet and needs replacing although we did manage to sign. Maintenance request to be logged. TFTC TNLN.

Found it! This was our last cache find for the day. We stopped here and discovered the forest floor was carpeted in flowering natives including wax lipped orchids, sun orchids and we even spotted a donkey orchid as well as lots of other flowers and grasses. Some flowers were a bit bedraggled after all the rain but we were really happy to have found this fabulous piece of bushland. Thanks for bringing us here! The cache was found easily. Unexpectedly, it’s a bit damp! TFTC SL

The work year has finished, so it’s time to head off on another road trip - to explore ‘The Pointy End’.
DAY THREE: Lakes Entrance, Bairnsdale
This wasn’t on our list but we thought we’d stop to give the mozzies a feed.
Thanks for bringing us here today by placing this cache, Fred&Mandy
 
28-Dec-21
Day 3 of the Bring In The New Year (BITNY) road-trip. Today we packed up camp at Woods Point and headed back west towards Bairnsdale via Nowa Nowa and Lakes Entrance to name a few. Today I will hopefully travel through my last UBD map and tick off another LGA on my list.

Looked in a few spots before spotting the cache. A lovely spot for a picnic. Log was a little wet.

Thanks Fred&Mandy for placing this gamepiece in the wild for us to find.

This is our first chance to take off in our motorhome and test it out. It is so long since I have been caching, I am feeling very rusty, with very little caching over the last 18 months. Now we are semi retired, so we will no doubt get familar and catch up on some very late logs.

Stoppped off and made a quick find here.

Thanks Fred&Mandy for placing the cache and doing the maintenance, so we can enjoy the find.

We stopped on the way to Little River Gorge Falls,
We need one cache on map page 23 of the Victorian UBD map book to be able to complete that challenge cache.
That is our goal.
We live in Regional Victoria this is the last Covid-19 lockdown weekend for metro Melbourne .
So we thought we would take advantage of that on the cup day extended LWE, we created for ourselves, and take this 4 day tour to do this one achievable but lengthy access trip.
We were suitably impressed with this cache site.
Unfortunately we didn’t have time to do the walk, but it planted the seed to eventually return.
East Gippsland is wonderful!

What a cool structure that has been built near this cache. Thanks for bringing it to our notice. We did stop and soak up the cultural wonder of the location, especially the vegetation nearby. If it has any significance to the local indigenous community it wasn’t obvious. Some information about that would have enhanced our experience. The cache was found more from a distance of a few metres than closer to it. All was in good condition.
 
27-Sep-20
After working in front of a computer screen in my lounge for the last 8 months, it was good to be able to get away. Geohusband, Ausyowie, was explain how he had visited this area many moons ago as a child, so whilst he was driving, I searched interesting cache in the area.
A wonderful area to visit.

Cache guarded well by a determined team of mozzies. (Poor Ausyowie has many bite to prove it)
 
27-Sep-20
Enroute to Mallacoota after geowife Malipara had spent the better part of 6 months working from our lounge room.

I recall coming to this area as a child iver 40 years ago to visit an aboriginal co-op and we were talking about in the car. That brought us here.

Lessons learned and a quick find before we were on our way. Thanks Fred and Mandy.

Took nothing but time to read the signs.
 
22-Sep-20
Thanks for the hide. Kids loved finding this one and loved running around the area to explore.

Found by Mary and David at 17:00. Our last for the day as we head on in to Lakes Entrance. Bitterly cold and rainy after beautiful weather during and just after "The Gong" Mega. A very interesting place, and we liked having to find information from the signs ourselves. Mary also loves infusion sachets. Our thanks to Fred&Mandy.

Found on day 8 of Fergzters family holiday that went from Ballarat to OzGeomuster at the Gong and homeward again via the coast route. Today we travelled between Eden and Lakes Entrance.

What was to have been a quick weekend trip to Melbourne to accompany leafotwind on his 3,000th cache find Cool (since I had also recently completed the Victorian Premiers whereigo Smile) became an 8 day trip because there was a CITO [^] at Traralgon the next day which then led to Mallacoota SurprisedCool and the Snowy Mountain Highway Cool[^] since I couldn't legally use the Great Alpine Road as I didn't have snow chains SurprisedTwisted because the boring freeway back to Melbourne and then back to Shepparton didn't sound like fun SadRazz

The first day, I met my sister in Bendigo Cool as she waited for her semi to be unloaded and reloaded, so we went op shopping in the meantimeBig Grin[:X]Cool From there it was off to Melbourne and the group find of the Victorian Premiers whereigo which had taken me to many spots in Victoria Big GrinCool[^] Then the group slogged our way up a slippery, muddy slope [|)][xx(]SurprisedTwisted to get a couple of simple drive by 4 x 4 caches (when the tracks are open) before caching on into the night CoolBig Grin

I made a find on a previous Sad DNF at Moe Cool then it was off to Clean Up a Creek at Traralgon [^] followed by finding some bloody good caches Cool (both containers and reasons for placement) around the area with leafotwind, NoWorries andAlphaDeltaIndigo Big Grin[:X], chatting to Crisp image as the group found Wherever I Lay My Hat CoolSmile before Rex and I left the group, walking in the Crinigan Road Bushland Reserve at dusk[^]Smile, seeing a huge Surprised Dr21 dredger once used for coal mining and now placed at Morwell, finding a tiny grave in the middle of a shopping area Sad, finding my 1st 3D printed cache container Cool and then it was off to the Lakes Entrance area and wandering out on the peninsulaSmileCool[^]

Seeing old RAAF airfields and radio bunkersCool, seeing tiny country towns and meeting some great people Smile (including an almost muggle woman and her children in Mallacoota where she had previously looked for 1 cache and who may now get into geocaching properly Cool[^]), seeing the sun rise while surrounded by kangaroos Smile and standing on the eastern coast of Vic Cool and chatting with Rollmatrix throughout my time in Mallacoota and Genoa SmileBig Grin

Spending a few hours chatting with a lovely truckie, Michael [:X], who was on a wood chip run to Canberra as we traversed the countryside in the dark (after I had apologised for slowing down his fully laden rig as Harry crawled his way up a hill Red FaceWink) then I pulled into Cooma for a break and an EC and also found a cache, Southern Cloud, about the aircraft accident Sad and then accidentally ended up at another memorial cache, Southern Comfort, Southern Cloud or Southern Storm, later on in the trip SurprisedCool

Seeing brumbies amongst the snow along the edge of the road at night in the mountains in NSW Cool[^]Smile, seeing a thermal pool early in the morning with steam rising from it in the cold air and water plants growing up from the sandy bottom Surprised[^]Cool, seeing the grave of the alleged Man from Snowy River while finding the multi The Man from Snowy River - HCPPP CoolBig GrinSmile[^]Cool and then chatting to SciFiRulz who I managed to sneak in a quick visit with CoolSmileBig Grin before heading home and finding The Highest Railway Station on the way Cool

Over the 8 days there was 9 DNFs Sad (although I did manage to find a few on my 2nd attempts Smile), 1 CITO event attended Cool and a total of 111 Smile cache finds including 3 FTFs SurprisedCool

As I am about 8 months behind in logging, I'm resorting to template logs to catch up. Sad
My heartfelt thanks to the COs who have placed some tricky, funny, exercise required, scary, interesting and devious caches in some amazing spots! Cool[^]CoolSmile
