Checked this one today and it actually is missing this time. Not sure if/when I'll replace it so archiving this one. It had a good run, and I didn't realise how well hidden it was when I originally placed it.

### 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.It certainly needs to be 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, or the posted coordinates.* 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 that 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 Gemfyre and to take it off the playing board to prevent further inconvenience to our Geocaching Community.[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 taken by the CO.If nothing has happened, I will conclude 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 and 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 youBalayang -GeoffCommunity Reviewer

WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 62 - Swan Valley Perth Day 7. After two days of very wet weather, today was cool but clear and sunny. A fantastic day. I headed into the Perth Hills to tackle two more counties. Mundaring and Kalamunda. Parts of today's drive reminded me of where I grew up in the Adelaide hills. Not to mention a big road with lots of trucks. I took a little extra tri to do some Labs around the town of Mundaring before heading hoe to sit out in the sun doing my logging and planning.I was working my way along the fence searching for something when I found needles and such like, so I called off the hunt and left it. Thanks.Albida

Back in WA after being on the road travelling since early 2014.

Ducked out for a quick caching run before and after lunch. Being warm today it was back to camp for a swim and rejuvenate. Razz

I had to come out to Midland again today to collect some items for the museum so the Better Half came along for the ride and do some caches after.

Cache was found after a small search. Log was signed and the cache returned as it was found.

Thanks Gemfyre for placing this cache for us to find.

21-May-22
Find 3 of 14 with 2 couldn't looks and 2 DNF on a beautiful autumn sunny afternoon.

This one took most of my time today. Was sat right next to it and couldn't see it. Took a PAF to say keep looking exactly where I was and I'd find it. Sure enough I did. Not quite as low as I was looking.

Headed over to pick up some caches in the area today - and this was one that I stopped off at. Oh dear, there have been quite a few caches today where I have turned up only to realise I have been here before... but have forgotten to log. This was yet another one! I recall last time this cache took ages and was very satisfying to finally spot it right in front of me. Today I knew exactly where it was so an immediate find Smile Signed again but making sure this time I also log it here! No problems here today - TFTC

After doing a few hours of work at Midland Station for train replacement, it was time to enjoy the rest of the day off to myself. I did so by going caching in the Midland area.

Took a short while. Noting the comment “it does stick out” helped me find the right GZ and ultimately the cache.Cheers Gemfyre! Big Grin

The most rewarding find of the say so far. I was having trouble, and just after I finished a message to the CO, I spun around and there it was! Its surely there. This would be an ideal spot for a CITO event. My 2nd find in the Shire of Mundaring. TFTC

5 for 5 today...
 
29-Sep-21
Too tricky for us apparently...
 
01-Aug-21
Came to turn this frown upside down. My advice would be " don't be led astray by misleading logs & follow the CO's instructions. TFTC

29-Aug-20
Definitely one that makes you think but got there in the end great camo TFTC
 
29-Aug-20
Wow. That was a tricky one. Took a long time. Nearly gave up but decided to break open the biccies and coffee then had another go and voila. Spotted it straight away this time. It was not what we were looking for originally. We were over complicating it. TFTC

15-Jul-19
I was fixated on a different type of cache here. Took a little while but sticks out once you see it. Log a little damp. TFTC

Nice little cache. Thanks for the hint.
 
08-Jun-19
Funnily enough I was expecting this type of container but slightly bigger and for some reason I was expecting it to be brown- I think similar ones I’ve found recently have been. Anyway it was a fairly easy find. Tftc

out with Schnappy96 this took a little while, but cache still there TFTC

Out and about this morning picking up a few extra caches that have been on the radar for some time.

Special thanks to the local COs for some fun.

All found quickly. Thanks

Came back with c10. He sorted it
 
04-Jan-19
Our second dnf for the morning, need to get our caching eyes working.
 
10-Dec-18
After visiting a relative we stopped by for our third try at this one. We almost decided not to bother as we don't tend to look for them more than once if they Nanos but as we often drive by this one was the lucky one.
We rethought our strategy and decided to not think of magnetic... Just taking our time we eliminated places until we spotted the cache. Definitely a nano...
Now this won't show up in our searches. Tick it off

Almost gave up but persevered, went a little further along and found the tiny cache. Log is full but managed to sign .Interesting location. Tftc

Second time at this cache - knew the location as soon as I arrived and remembered the fruitless search last time. Another fruitless search again. Clearly we’re on different wave lengths
