###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.
I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it 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.
* 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 which 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 trickytrax and to take it off the playing board to prevent further geocaching community inconvenience.
[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 by the CO.
If nothing has happened, I will assume 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, 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 you

DNF - not sure if it’s the giant tree on the corner but we couldn’t find Sad
 
14-Jul-22
DNF for this one, We looked at all the likely spots you would/could hide a cache around GZ, also looked at previous logs for any hints. . trickytrax.
Attempted to find this at 10:30AM on this Thursday the 14th of July in the year 2022
 
02-Jun-22
Checked around the tree. Can't reach the hole on the upper side.

Found it a couple of years ago with geomum
 
14-Feb-22
Finding it necessary to visit Coffs on a regular basis for family reasons so rewarding myself with picking up a few caches here and there. I was fairly certain I was in the right place as there were lots of nooks and crannies but unfortunately I came up empty handed this time.
 
06-Feb-22
Very appropriate name for the cache, seemingly endless nooks and crannies here but eventually found the right one. As mentioned previously, the log is in poor shape and needs replacing.
Thanks for the cache

Thank you

Log very full and wet found a space to sign didn’t have anything on me to replace sorry

First full day in Coffs Harbour and we decided to have a nature day - first the Botanical Gardens and then a walk. And no harm in picking a walk with some caches - so did part of a walk nearby.

Found a few that had lain undisturbed for some months. Glad to see they were still in play.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Checked a few logical areas but nothing sighted. I suspect this needs a cache check.
 
11-Feb-21
Checked a lot of nooks and crannies but must have missed the one with the cache.

Today was a day of doing some caching around the Coffs Harbour accompanied by ilook4geo. It was a successful day with no DNFs to mar the chosen list. Each cache had its log signed with both lots of initials, then each container was replaced where it had been found. Thanks go to Trickytrax for this cache placement which needed a bit of probing to locate it.

Doing some caching this morning around Coffs with goingplaces2. It was a fun day and we were happy to add some more smileys to the map. This was another one we were able to tick off our list. TFTC.

With relatives dropping over after lunch we got out in the morning with a dozen caches in mind, grabbing 11 of those and an extra one, adding a few GCA finds as we went. With everyone at work and school, muggles were on the low side, thankfully.... The GPS placed us right in between the two trees, so we concentrated on the nooky one and Samuel spotted the hide.

I've been visiting the area for the last week, helping my elderly parents up at Woolgoolga so it hasn't unfortunately been a caching holiday but I got the chance to grab a few this afternoon on my last day before flying out early tomorrow. Circled the obvious before making a fairly easy find this afternoon. He is camoed. Thanks trickytrax.

vacation in Australia combined with caching, TFTC
 
17-Mar-18
More obvious than we thought
 
02-Mar-18
Out and about in the Coffs Harbour area for some sightseeing and geocaching to explore new areas.

Just go with your gut instinct when arriving at GZ and you will be in the right location. A simple find, just bring a reacher to make the final grab if you don't want to stick your hand in there.

Arrived at GZ, GPS was a bit off, but went with my gut instinct, just watch for the ants nearby.

I rolled up on the pushie today,
and had a real moment of Déjà vu [:o]
I had been here before !!

A search of GZ soon revealed a cache Razz
It was like I knew where to look for it [:o]
And while signing the logbook,
I saw me name already signed in the logbook !! Big Grin

So I'm not going mad !!
Yet !!
Well I will claim the cache today Smile
I obviously missed claiming it a couple of years ago Red Face

TFTC ... again Smile

Coffs Harbour staying at the footy club for the weekend.
Today we headed north as far as Arrawa then returned back to town, caching as we went.
The cache was 14m from where our GPS said it should be. Still as we pulled up it was where we expected it to be.
Thanks for placing this cache trickytrax
 
14-Aug-17
Quick find once the muggles in the house across the road drove away, soon had log signed and cache replaced TFTC Cool
 
01-Aug-17
We've come north to escape the miserable Victorian winter, and Coffs Harbour you have certainly not let us down. A week of beautiful sunshine and warmth and some caches thrown in for good measure.
The GPSr had us some 14 metres away today in an area obviously well searched by others!
We had given up and were walking back to the car when we decided to widen the search and then came up quickly with the cache.

Just returned from my holiday and catching up on the logs from my fantastic trip. Took the slow route back to our accommodation and scooped up some caches along the way. All is well with this one. Signed log. Thanks
 
15-Jun-17
Had a great time at the Alice Mega and now on the homeward stretch so still looking for caches along the way. We may sign small log sheets as CG.

Thanks for the cache trickytrax.

Found with cousin Temingi on a caching adventure around Coffs area. TFTC

I'm believe there was a geocache in the past on the same tree, only on other side. Took Nothing Left nothing sl
 
04-Mar-17
Quick find obvious spot so tftc
 
16-Feb-17
TFTC, pulled up near GZ and saw the obvious structure, soon spotted a likely hidey hole for a quick find. Luckily took no notice of my GPS as GZ is approx 16 metres out.
 
13-Feb-17
Found in the company of pprass

Well ya got the 'nook and cranny' part right. Peter was over there and Cat was over here, i was standing far away as there were so many flaming ants, i mean seriously why so many here? I ended up giving in and helping, thankfully i spotted the cache. TFTC trickytrax
feedback: needs some serious ant rid Smile
 
13-Feb-17
Found at 10:07 AM GAFF5 in the company of NurseHayley.
Well that was an interesting exercise! The GPSr took us into the bush which we thought was correct for a T of 2.0, but then at a distance of 15 metres, c-pprass insists that it was where she was looking, but it then took Hayley to actually spot it.
Thanks trickytrax.
Feedback: Co-ords are about 15 metres out
