I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore the cache or communication from the cache owner yeatesy89 requesting additional time, within the time frame requested in the last reviewer note, and it appears that the cache has been abandoned.

##Cache Maintenance Required please.##
This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit, to address the issue described in the logs.
The cache owner needs to either fix the problem or archive the listing, after picking up any geo-litter. In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page.
See the maintenance section of the [Geocache Hiding Guidelines](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance).

If there is a good reason for a delay in enabling this cache, please post an update note log here on the cache page so that everyone will know what's going on.
When the maintenance is completed, you can re-enable the listing by entering an "Enable Listing" log, and then post an "Owner Maintenance" log to clear the "Needs Maintenance" attribute, if set.

I will check back in 30 days to be sure that the maintenance has been done, or that further information has been provided.

If there has been no action to repair the cache, or explain the situation, unfortunately I will need to Archive this cache. Caches archived because of lack of maintenance will not be unarchived.

The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.

Thank you

Nada but I didn't look hard after the NM log has been unattended to for two months and CO hasn't been active for 12 months. Area is filled with rubbish and previous finders have indicated the cache is destroyed.

Jjj

Didn’t find it ;(

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

Need check up due to many error logs

Couldn’t find. Apparently it’s been destroyed!

Not found today. Might be destroyed due to weather

We found the remains!

Found but couldn't sign it because the log was wet and crumpled up.

Log needs replacing as it's soaked through

DNF - May be there as there’s a broken container but hard to say if that was the cache or not

Too wet to write

Good hide!

Good hide

Done! Easy peasy!!!

Found with Kittyangel35. TFTC

Finally found with Team Cambo.

Very clever hide this one TFTC

Took the opportunity to head over to the Ellenbrook area today to spend a couple of hours making a dent in the huge amount of unfound caches I have over here. Ended up with 18 finds, plus a few DNFs too of course As today was more a drive-to than a walk-to I moved the car closer to GZ after finding #4 - although I am sure it would be a nice walk through the park I quickly twigged what I needed to be looking for here and after discounting a few potential hosts I eventually spotted the right one. Coords were a little out for me but otherwise very nicely done, very sneaky TFTC

Marvellous hiding spot props

Found it too wet to write. @loulam06 tftc

??

Find #534. Got up at 5.30 am on Australia Day to find all the Ellenbrook caches. Now off to Dome for Aussie Day Breakfast. Oi Oi Oi. TFTC.

Could not find looked everywhere help plz

Found. Hard as the coords are way out. Think water. Thanks.

Found it on the floor

TFTC. Took a while to find it. Saw some likely culprits but all were negative. Eventually found.

Spent a few hours with my geodaughter TH/CS tackling some of the Ellenbrook caches, 30 finds and a number of DNFs later we called it a day. Thank you to all the COs for placing the caches.

Out and about with the Geodad (GHFB) today to claim some caches around Ellenbrook. TFTC

Found it.It was a really good find

Found it quick as soon as I got my head around the thought of water .
Thank you Bella

Coords are a bit off but after walking around a bit I spotted it. Signed and replaced as found. Tftc

Vety clever. Love the clue. Very wet log. TFTC

Find 6 of 15 with no DNFs for a change, on a pleasant ride around South Ellenbrook. We delayed our arrival so that the rain could finally pass over and it worked out well.

Pleased to report that the cache is still present and correct. Co-ords are definitely a bit out.

TFTC yeatesy89!

.

DNF

Found a white water pipe which could possibly have been the plane but no luck finding it

Had to do a bit of wandering about and testing as we had a pretty good idea of what we were looking for. Then we spotted it and had the log signed quickly. Nice sneaky hide, yeatsey89. tftc

Found! Clever! Thank you

I beat dad at finding it

TFTC
Log is soaking wet can’t be signed

Took a little longer than I thought as coords we’re 6m off

Tftc, found with emmapaul. But log too wet to sign

Tftc

So I just noticed I’m not the only one out caching today. I seem to be on the tails of @Tessplus3 and friend

Out for the day with Tessplus3 #9/11 TFTC

Walked over it a couple of times. UMeHedgie's geosense won for us today.
Out on the hunt for the elusive hidden creature, World Turtle, today with UMeHedgie. 33 to go.
TFTF.

At last ive found this one. Been meaning to come back for another look for quite a while. TFTC

Great hide, took longer than it should have. Tftc!

We are running out of caches close to home so have ventured NOR for fresh pastures. NEF. TFTC yeatesy89

With not too much caching done by us recently we decided to rectify that and made plans to head north and cache our way towards the Swan Valley area. We left home nice and early and collected this cache along the way. Cheers and TFTC.

G’day there yeatesy89, I was in this area today and found your cache Bella's 3rd Hide GC6Z1F1. I added my name to the log book at 11:59 am on 3 June 2018. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!

This cache find brings our total find count to 9674. Woohoo!!

Day 127 of 365! Wow 4 months already. 100 down 200 to go.
Definitely not the white pipe. If there is no log book or Geocaching signage then most likely it is not the cache. I eventually found the correct cache after rummaging around in the bushes and finding some stolen good from a house down the road coords were 9m out for me, try 47.619 Tftc!

Found both items in question. Green and black.

Most creative hiding space! Previous pictures of people thinking they’d found it by the white pipe and it was damaged is not it!

Nice one! Cache looked in good condition to me, TFTC!

Found the cache. It was broken but found it. TFTC

This geocacher reported that the container is damaged.

We had half an hour between school pick up and work so headed out for a quick grab. As others have said, this one needs attention. Found what others had posted in their photos

Needs maintenance

Found what is left of the cache going on previous photos.

found it needs restoration i think

Well it looks like it’s seen better days

Thinl we found it but looks broken. Maintenance required please.

I think this is it but has been broken.

Found it. TFTC. Took me a bit longer than it should have.

TFTC! 3/4 Get!

Another big days caching with Barnzy12 to cleanup a number of green dots that have managed to appear on the map in recent months. Today we set out to remedy the "invasion".

Started off with a huge walk around Woodbridge with the lovely walk trail highlighted by the Woodbridge riverside series of caches that form a nice walk oth with the others along there.

Meandered our way towards the swan valley with a quick stop off at three sticks, and after reading a recent log by a local cacher about the activities of single men at the toilet block and then seeing two single males in the car park we made a quick find and escape before heading further along towards west swan road.

Drive up west swan road finding cache after cache from the swan valley cycle tour that we have previously missed before attempting a number of caches around the Ellenbrook area that we haven't gotten.

All up a great days caching with us hitting he magical number of 30 finds, which is helping keep up our yearly numbers!

Thanks to the local COs for a great days caching.

Good hide

Good spot

TFTC

Daz89 was on the mark with this one

Nice hide tftf!

Very clever thnx

Great hide! This one took me a few minutes as I focused on the wrong object to start with. It was the right idea though and I eventually got to the right spot after widening my search a bit. Thank you for the cache yeatesy89.

Found first go thx

Nice sneaky one, thank you for your cache

Very sneaky! Well done

Headed out with the geodaughter Kristybelle to grab some caches in the Ellenbrook area. All the caches were found with a couple that took a bit of searching. TFTC yeatesy89

Back today and avenged our previous dnf. Log is soggy wet.
Beautiful weather and a pleasant morning caching Ellenbrook and surrounds.
TFTC yeatesy89 this is find # 3208 for us.

Will try again later.

Tftc yeatsey89 found it after reading some logs. Was full of water

very wet paper

TFTC nice quick find!

Quick find while out on an early morning cache run before work.
Coords several metres out but soon spotted the cache. TFTC

Slinky Malinks

Another great find. Took ages to find, though we had a pretty good idea what the container was so started searching for that and BINGO!

The clue had us baffled but when we found it it made perfect sense tftf

Tftf cords are about 10m off from actual location

TFTC very clever

Headed to Ellenbrook for a bit of caching, this was one of the caches we found in the area... There were neighbours across the road, so I jumped out & Jase headed off to find a spot to park. This was were I snuck into the bushes in search of the prize I was scratching my head for a few minutes, then again doing my best to hide from some council workers when I noticed something that needed further inspection... Once the coast was clear, I hastily signed the log before hightailing it out of there

TFTC yeatesy89 [^]

Thanks. Took ages and while I remember gpsr said 12m at coordinate ending 619 and 085.

Found it. The new cache is slightly bigger than a Bison tube and has something to do with water. TFTC

Got vey scratched arms but still no luck for us here today

Cache replaced please make sure you are not being watched my muggles
