Unfortunately, as there has not been a response to the last request/s to attend to this cache, or provide regular updates, the cache is being de-listed on the basis that it has been abandoned by the Cache Owner.

Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained here: [**Unarchive a geocache**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56). If there are components or remnants of the cache, please return to the GZ and collect the cache (or remnants). We don't want to litter our environment with Georubbish.

If you wish to contact me regarding this cache, please send an email via my profile - [Bunjil,](https://coord.info/PR9GZ0K) and quote the cache name and GC number.

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

----------

I've noticed this cache is carrying a maintenance log which really does need to be addressed by the cache owner.

The guidelines indicated that periodic visits to check on the cache, as well as prompt attention to any logs that indicate there is a problem, are part of the [**cache owners responsibilities.**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance) If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to [**Disable it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=235) - I have Disabled it for you this time.

**Can you please respond to this situation (or indicated your intention) within 14 days,** so others know exactly what is happening with this cache?

You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:

- Check on the cache, repair and/or replace the cache 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 praises.

- If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (within 14 days). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. For ongoing issues (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to speed.

- 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 I next look at the cache page, it is likely that I will, unfortunately, have to de-list (Archive) it 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.

This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.

No finds for 6 months and very few places for it to be. Could the CO please look at this one?

Another DNF. Time this one was looked at.

DNF DNF
Thanks

We looked for about 15 mins because it was very wet and cold the other day but came up empty handed.

No luck here either. And with that, time to head back to the car.

Oh no! A DNF on our first attempted cache for the day. Never bodes well. I feel like we should have found this one, but it was elusive. Lots of long and very wet grass could have concealed it very very well. Will make another foray at some time.

[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

I like it

Another one off the list

Cruising through and thought we could grab this one quickly - we were right! Thanks for the cache, buzzsmc.

Well its the middle of school holidays so why not pick up the bike and get some Tupperware containers! left Highton at about 10am and hit the G2Q trail and made my way out to leopold where i almost finished suscoe's part of the trail and started on cloudgliders. I also found a few other nearby caches. all up a pretty good day with 20 finds and 2 DNF's. Afterwards I rode out to pt Henry and found a few more caches. All up 40km and 5 hours on a cold windy wet day.

after a ftf on another cache in this series I popped in to grab the number. all good here. Wouldnt be surprised if this cache is found by the kids who play in this tree

We are staying in St Leonards for a few days and it was great to be able to do this cache series and find other caches nearby. We enjoyed the varied hides. Thanks to buzzsmc for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.

Spot on co-ords led to an easy find. TFTC

Quick find on a driving mission. Cache was almost kinda buried though....... TFTC

TFTC

Quick cache before heading home easy find TFTC

Today I deemed some exercise was in order to assist the weight gained by the overindulgence of the festive season What better way than to walk briskly along the rail trail and collect a few more smileys as I went My total caches for today amounted to 14 before the weather became too hot I had a lovely morning and thoroughly enjoyed both the walk and the variety of caches that had been placed for me to discover Thanks to all the COs for their massive effort in setting up this trail

The Sims_family were keen to get out for a drive this evening having pick up our brand new car today. What better way than to change a few caches into smileys.

Even though the Sims_family have visited the Capitol and celebrated the overthrow of president geo-snow We decided it was time to visit District 4 and share the good news of Commander buzzsmc to power.

Thank you buzzsmc for the cache

Quick find, nothing to report, no rebels in sight. TFTC

Visiting Dad in Leopold this weekend so I decided to grab this close by cache in the afternoon. Nice easy find at GZ.

TFTC

After going round and round the streets through here I arrived at the far end of the reserve and walked it from there. Tell tale signs told me there was a cache hidden here and sure enough it was.
Thanks buzzmac

Special code received. Thank you for this game

Over for the Surf Coast Mega with tmann421 enjoying the area and collecting caches along the way.
Thanks to all the CO's for adding to the enjoyment of this fun trip and TFTC.

Over for the Surf Coast Mega with Just-Lookin.
Really enjoyed the caches in the area which added to the enjoyment of our trip. TFTC

Nice and easy kid friendly cache plus there is a play ground near by. Tftc

After my Gps was having a meltdown I finally found it, good one!

After a stroll, a DNF and a coffee in Barwon Heads this afternoon, we decided to go for one find today. Luckily we still have most of the Hunger Games hides to find, so this one was "it" as we were going to drop something off in Leopold anyway.
A quick find was made though we did wonder for a moment if it would be there as GZ is clearly used by some local kids as a playground.
All good here. TFTC

Yay, our 200th cache! Was a little cold today but still a cute park to be at! Nice hide, we had few that we couldn't find today for different reasons, too many muggles, too high, and just plain couldn't find them, was nice to end on a good note TFTC

quick find thanks

Quick find for our second of the hunger games

On the way home from the Shepherds Road Treasure hunt and just had to get a few more smilies. Another of this series signed off. Noticed there was a number in the cache. Duhh, why didn't I see these before. Oh well, I guess that I will miss the final. Thanks buzzsmc for the series.

Out and about in District 4, on a cold winter's day. Heading home to the heater actually, after adding our name to the log and collecting the information.

Our thanks to buzzsmc for placing this cache.

It's a bit of a hassle not using the app to find a cache... I found this 3/6/16, and have the clue from it written down, but ten days later realised i haven't actually logged it. A belated big thanks to Buzzsmc!

Heading to Leura Park for lunch, so picked some of these on the way. Cache score to Jinky. Left a geonickel, TN, SL, TFTC!

Marshall's Geelong this cache today,
Easy enough find. Been to this park many times whilst living in the area.
TFTC

Nice find while my niece was at the playground. Thanks

Found in company with suehut and a granddaughter who would rather play on the playground equipment. Sue toddled off, oh no toddling is the granddaughters style. Sue strode off to search while I pretended interest in the little one. By the time l arrived at gz Sue was squawking for a pen. So guess who had to go 50m back to car to retrieve the pen. Yep....Pa. So l have no hesitation in claiming a find. Thanks. My first in the HG series.

We headed down to Leopold today as well all had Monday off School/Work.
We have gradually been finding caches around the trails for the last few years.
The rain got us about halfway through but it was a nice walk.
Thanks for the hides.

Found with the family.
We did quite a bit of walking between these caches and even got rained on.
Thanks for the hides they were fun to look for.

Found with Mum, Dad and Eddie.
It was very windy and even wet on the trail.
Despite this we still had a fun walk.
Thanks for the cache hides.

Found at 0130 after work, needed sleep as would be back at work by 0530 lol

Late afternoon and the area is deserted so it was an easy find, number noted and I was off to the next.
I had some problems navigating to this guy as the streets are in this modern method of going around in circles but got there in the end, thanks buzzsmc for placing this guy.
Cache was easily spotted and rehid better but if the park ever gets a maintenance crew in here and the mound goes so will the cache.

No-one was about here today which helped us nab a quick find. We were dreading a bison-in-a-tree scenario, but fortunately we didn't have to go fishing in this district. TFTC

Knowing what we are looking for makes the find that much easier. Another find by the McPhail family

On the way to pick up dinner and needed a cache for th day.

Ah this one is closeby! A bit of a scrounge in the dark then found it.

Look forward to getting the rest - cheers.

nice easy find this one. as long as you are on right angle to see

Suscoe was out on an afternoon caching trip today in pleasant sunshine and a few clouds.
Unbelievable late Autumn weather really, feels like spring time.
With days like today it makes you wonder what is going on with the climate!!!!!!
Found our way in here and a quick find resulted.
Thanks to buzzmc for this hide and series.

Our first Hunger Games find! Fresh new hides, lets do it!
JH & SB

Nice quick find, nice new book with a few logs already signed. Tftc

nice find sorry for the late log

Thanks for the [FTF] Birthday Present.
Do I, don't I. I couldn't resist looking for a Birthday FTF. Unwrapped the cache to find a clean log.
Signed and replaced as found.

Thanks for the the cache Buzzmc, Happy Birthday To You Too.

Nice find

After finding a few in the series this morning, I was keen to grab a few more tonight. They say two heads are better than, but in this case it was three !! I joined forces with unstoppable force that is The_Tritonz and together we set about conquering this series.
Another area unfamiliar to me, it was driving through a maze to get here. Clue noted and onto the next. TFTC buzzsmc

Using the cover of darkness tonight in the company of DAB we managed to cover from District 3 to District 1 in a reasonable time gathering the necessary intel needed to regain entry to The Capitol. We think rabbits will be caught here more than fish in this rabbit warren, maze of streets, but we did find our way in and become victors of the district.
Thanks buzzsmc for the hide and the series.
