Hi there EthanWJ7,
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 I am having to take the next step and temporarily disable the cache - see here: [**Geocache Health Score.**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713)
**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 kill this cache.**
#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 praises.
- **Place A Write Note Log:-** Reviewers are not mind readers, so without your note on the cache page telling them what the situation is, they can't tell what is going on with the cache.
So please just post a note to the page (within 14 days) and, when the listing is next checked, all will be fine for a little bit longer. But 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 this page and post a note every 4 to 6 weeks so as to keep everyone up to speed with what is happening.
- **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, 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 new 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)

4 April 2021, had a look around for about 20 mins with no luck... maybe next time
After a detour to the start of the town for a toilet break at what I thought was a historic centre but actually an amazing conversion to a golf course, I thought to check out this nearby cache.
The town is lovely and it was a nice quick find before the rain started

The cache is a bit wet and log has started to grow mould- luckily I have plenty of hand sanitiser!
Found by Team Ladava in the run up to our 2,000th. find. (It’s only been 13 years.)
A few hours in Eynesbury was the selected location for the day.

Out to find a few caches for my last caching day of the year. I chose this area as I have found a few here previously and had still plenty more to target. I also decided to try and make it to the intervening days event in Melton later in the day. It was a hot day with lots of dust and flies but a satisfying total of 49 caches in all to clock over my 2000th find for the calendar year. Navigated through to a close parking space and after that the hide didn't cause me too much trouble. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache MrBiff247.
Caching in the area we picked up a few caches and this was one of them.
Cache and contents were in good condition.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Some free style caching this morning as I was in the city early and had 4 hours to burn so I headed out to a new area for me. Spotted the likely hide as I approached. Thanks to Mrbiff247 for the placement and fun.
Out and about with bogonghazy and geodog tess to clear up a few missed caches.
A short walk soon had this in hand whilst bogonghazy caught up with a nearby mate who lived opposite the cache. Thanks Mrbiff247

We were heading to Ballan this morning with Ausfox; and Neville_devil for an Event but left early enough for a detour via Eynesbury for a few smiley along the way.
After a pleasant walk out to the Headless Windmill Neville_devil made the quick find here as I answered a PAF from a fellow Geocacher of significance. Its always good to help out other
Thank you Mrbiff247 for the smiley

This was an easy find as we saw the cache as we walked towards the published coordinates. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Mrbiff247 for the cache.
Found in the rain, at least noone else is silly enough to be out in this. Pretty well makes for a muggle free day!

Decided to get out of the house for a bit of fresh air, take the dogs for a walk and fill a gap in my days' caching calendar. TNLN, TFTC Mrbiff247

Another day to mark off my geocaching calendar, so off to Eynesbury it was to find at least one cache.
This cache was my backup for my primary target of The Sound of Silence. I had originally planned to ride my Firestorm, but changed my mind at the last minute and drove. Somewhere along Greigs Road my change of mind was validated by a short, sharp rain squall, which was also the catalyst to change my primary target to t his cache - in case the squall had company following. It was a nice quick find today, then a nice walk to the original point of the trip.
The cache is in good condition.

Nice day for a geocache. Have just recently gotten back into geocaching after a long break thanks for tbe cache
A nice little area here; the houses that back onto (or front onto?) here are lucky to enjoy these surroundings. A quick find, sign, and return. Thanks Mrbiff247
Found with omegaman1971 while caching in the area this afternoon. The cache was soon located after a short search, thanks Mrbiff247 for the hide.

Back caching in an area I haven't cached since 2013.
Still an awesome place.
After a short walk from the nearest parking found this well hidden cache.
Cheers for the cache

Quick find. Very exposed to the houses here... I hope the owners aren't watching, or are aware of what we are doing! Tftc
Out for the day exploring the Eynesbury area.
Beautiful day for the middle of Winter.
Great walk through some historical spots of a time gone by.

Some after lunch caches were in order today, I knew just where to go! A quick find - seems a little exposed here, hopefully the nearby residents are cool. Thanks for the cache Mrbiff247.

Easy find with Hedgerow the Hedge Hog cache was in plain view so covered it properly
12/06/2017 2:55:00 PM - To celebrate the Queens birthday I swung past here to find this cache which had me going in circles for a bit and then I figured I'll forget about the GPS and checkout the hint. A few minutes later I had the cache. Thanks Mrbiff247 for the adventure.

Found by Aussie Train Driver 01/06/2017, find number 1052.
I have had this series on the radar for a long time and a day off work today provided the perfect opportunity for a bit of caching.
I drove to this one and parked the car at the end of the nearby street. A short walk to GZ and I had the cache in hand. I made it quick as there were a few nasty smells coming from the manholes nearby!

Hi there Mrbiff247.
We found your cache **"Walk in the bush"** at 1:03:00 PM today. (This makes our find count 16219).
We started the day off by nominating a cache some distance away from our camp site and then took a route that was mostly determined by the next closest cache according to our GPS.
On our trek we found a variety of wonderful containers - and ended up finding 20 caches with 0 DNF's. Thanks for placing this cache, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found this cache around 3m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** Sadly it is certainly not a regular size. Nor is it even close to being a walk in the bush.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

Wasn't too far away this afternoon with a work appointment so instead of heading home after I thought I would stay in the area a collect a few Local cache. A nice variety of hides, a few drivebys on what I hopped would be quiet roads be geeeeeeeeeee they were busy as. A nice hike out too, and I stuffed up trying to get to the car so I ended up 2km away from where I thought I left the care. Oops not paying attention. Thanks for the fun, will pop back one day and collect the rest. Tftc
