Hi
This cache appears to have some problems. It is the cache owner's responsibility to read the logs and check the cache to sort out any problems with it and give an indication of when it may be up and running again for people to find.
**The cache is being Disabled to give the Cache Owner an opportunity to investigate and fix the apparent issues.**
Once the cache is operational again, the CO should write an *Owner Maintenance* log advising that the promlems have been fixed, and to remove the *Needs maintenance* attribute (red cross) if that is showing on the cache page. The CO can then write an Enable log to return the cache to play.
If the cache cannot be fixed it should be archived.
**If there is no response to this log after 30 days the cache will be Archived.**

The [Geocache Maintenance guideline](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance) explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported.

Searched for a long time and then read the DNF logs. Should have done so earlier!

Being Launceston,
I've gotten used to reading previous finder's notes,
to assess if there is a chance of finding a cache before heading there

In this cache I was wandering past anyway,
so despite the negative outlook,
I poked around for a couple of minutes.
More to enjoy the place than find a cache

Great place for a stickybeak
But alas a DNF

Looked in all spots but could not find

Looked around the obvious spots then widen the search but came up blank

I can confirm that this is 100% after being a previous finder it is no longer in the same spot or near by

Think this one may be missing cause it hasn't been found since last year and there is some rubbish around so it may have been picked up as rubbish by the people that look after the area.......!!

Like previous cacher I did lots of scrambling but didn’t find cache - but it was fun anyway!

Had a scramble up and down the slope and checked out a few stumps, but alas no cache. Thanks anyway Trey_72. We will watch future logs with interest.

Easy find TFTC

TTFC 4th one awesome view

TFTC

Found

Geokid looked ages for it "noooo muumm its not here" mum comes in for the look "are you kidding! It literally is RIGHT there!

Very nice one

I know that you walking down from the first base input nothing that's nothing find the log thank you.

I decided to leave my phone's interpretation of what I said as the log entry. Voice recognition is not all that good when you are out of breath. What I said was that I walked from the first basin and found the cache. I took nothing. I left nothing. I signed the log. Thanks.

Easy find once I realised there was no way that the co-ordinates I had were correct, the hint really helps

In Launceston for the weekend to catch up with friends. We went for a rather pleasant walk with lots of history at the power station, and were able to fit in a geocache or two. Of course, none of the five of us had a pen. The others had an excuse as they are sort of still muggles, but I should have been prepared better. So we took a little stick and added a cross to the logbook, right under pipemo's (?) log from 2-2-17. I have photo evidence of our cross if needed. TFTC

Found it !

Thanks for the cache great start to the evening

Today we found caches that had been published since our last visit and this was one of them. At GZ we made a quick find.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

easy find, was here with the geo-pup on a walk in our local area. have wanted to do this one for a while but was saving it for a day where i needed to be close to home but needed to get out of the house like today. TFTC Trey 72

Hi Trey 72
Find this hard to believe as there are no foxes in Tasmania - so how could they fly here?
Found this one with Budgietas after finding the History Cache next door.
Sainted at 1600hrs
TFTC and cheers

Quick find while here doing the history cache

These CoOrds had me All Over the Rocks....then Up on the Grassy Slope..
I spotted a couple of "Footings" in the long grass and climbed down to them to investigate.
The GeoWife stayed up on the high ground insisting I was "Way Off"
She was right.....but I enjoyed the climb....
The hint put us right tho.

Found @ 8:12pm with hccatcher11415 and squiggle30 after a lovely dinner at Jailhouse Grill

hccatcher did the retrieve and replace after waiting for a track walking muggle to leave.

Thanks Trey_72

Found after dinner with mum and allrounder

I would have liked to ride this flying fox!

Thank you for the cache.

After a nice meal out in Launceston with the muggle cousins, aunt and uncle we drove via Duck Reach on the way home.

A quick find with allrounder and squiggle30.

Found at the conclusion of a long walk from Cataract Gorge Reserve. Currently backpacking around Tasmania in celebration of finishing my degree! Cache in good condition. TFTC from Nelson Bay, NSW Australia

After getting myself to GZ and finding nothing I worked my way up and down and still didnt find anything, it was only later that we searched where the name would suggest that we came up with the goods.

Thanks for the cache.

The best caches I have found so far by type are:-

Traditional [Moorgreen P3:1, Penny Pincher](http://coord.info/GC32Z5B) By [Sven&Cup](http://www.geocaching.com/profile/?A=6596795)
Multi [CoaledHearted](http://coord.info/GCKGZ5) By [CraigRat](http://www.geocaching.com/profile/?A=256663) 
Unknown [Men In Black Holes](http://coord.info/GC1DVB0)  By [SG-3](http://www.geocaching.com/profile/?A=918045) 
Letterbox [Rolf's Letterbox](http://coord.info/GC5NCYM)  By [membsec](http://www.geocaching.com/profile/?A=5318842)

perhaps we should have taken more notice of the description and name rather than the coods as we spent a while scrambling at a lower level and gave up. After taking care of some other business we came back and found this as easy as you please! Thanks Trey_72

Here to check out the view & debate whether I'm really up to another walk down & back up the hill (which I wasn't) but that didn't stop us nabbing another quickie. Always good for another reason to return to Trevallyn reserve. TFTC.

Great little known history

In the obvious spot. Very interesting reading the signs regarding the power station. Don't think I would have fancied going over the flying fox!

I expected to see some fruit bats around here, but learned a lot of Launceston's history instead.
Thanks for the hide, Trey_72

A nice find in a scenic spot. TFTC

Of course I found it

A very overcast and ordinary day. Cache description led me to the only place it could be for a nice quick and easy find in an area just oozing with Launceston's rich history.. thanks..!!

May the way of the Hero lead to the cache!

I cache your reality and substitute my own! TFTC.

As we parked the car we looked in the direction of GZ and immediately saw something of interest. Closer inspection revealed the cache. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Trey_72 for the cache.

Quick find, TFTC

Had to wait for a coupleof car loads of muggles, eventually a quick find. tftc

TFTC had to wait awhile until sightseers had gone and the I could make a quick dash to GZ. A moveable I hid some time ago is still hidden away close by to this cache

Quick find once muggles cleared away during my lunch break
Nice location with a but of history
TFTC

*FTF*
A combined effort with Noman05 and Revhead24-7.
A great spot for a cache in general, although as a parent I am concerned about the GZ and you coordinates are a bit out according to my phone.
This cache was hunted, tagged and released by activehunters. Tftc.

*[FTF]* When I was out getting my first FTF, I was alerted to this one and seeing as how it was so close why not nab two.TFTC.
