###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 redcenterdazza 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.

A DNF for me too on this one, I think it might be gone. There’s a rock in the base of the pole with nothing under it. Also there doesn’t appear to be any magnetic containers inside the pole.
Easy find. Quite a busy road though so it was hard to find a break in traffic so I could sign the book with our being spotted haha
On a working holiday from South Australia and was staying nearby, had to grab one from a different state. Tftc.
awesome spot…had a feeling it’d be there! found it with my dad at 8 at night with camels in the back of our car! Love it!!
Sir_spectre and I went on a long overdue holiday to the Northern Territory. We had some great experiences and saw some amazing natural wonders. Not all went to plan - covid closures, flood effected roads, renovations, hot weather, some car troubles and not forgetting the huge jump in fuel costs 
Any caches that needed repairs were fixed and numeous logs were replaced or added too.
Thanks to redcenterdazza from mogni

replaced due to flood.
Mogni and myself went to the Northern Territory for a 10 day holiday. We drove 5478 km's in those 10 days. The plan was to go up the Sturt highway and then go via Ayers Rock, King's Canyon and then through to Alice Springs stopping at the gorges/chasm/gaps along the way. As you can expect nothing goes to plan. Day 1 Adelaide to Cooper Pedy, made it just before the Roxby Downs turn off and blow the side wall on the tire of the 4x4, 193 km detour just to get a tire and even then it was the second tire place that had the tire the correct size. We had camels come in to the campsite in Erldunda Roadhouse, they even left hoof prints 1/2 a foot from the tent, at King's Canyon we had dingo's come through the camp ground both nights we where there and at Alice springs we had a mouse move in under the tent in their campground. Some of the aboriginal towns we passed where in lock down because of covid 19 so no going in to get fuel there, that changed some plans. The floods where way worse up in Northern Territory than i realized. Some creeks/rivers i could see the debris over 2 meters from the river bed and down one 4x4 track it washed the road away completely, the hole was 3/4 the length of the 4x4 and over 6 foot deep. The temp was 33 to 36 for 9 of the 10 days and finally cooled down for the drive home. We got 7 different caches types in the N.T. plus every different cache size. It was a good trip but not the one we planned. To many of the roads in the N.T. where damaged and not repaired ( still closed ) so that cancelled plan A but that's just a excuse to come back isn't it. Come back and see what you missed last time when the roads are fixed. We came with 19 regular " geocaching size " containers and a milk crate of small containers by day 7 all the regulars where used as replaced caches and by day 8 the smalls where gone. It was the UV rays a lot more than the floods that killed the caches and almost all the log books where saved, the micro containers seemed to have constantly full log sheets so they where replaced too.

A drive out exploring and finding a few caches and this is one we found. All good here, log signed and replaced as found. Thanks Redcenterdazza.
I almost DNFd this one and I decided to read the logs.
Sure enough another quick hunt revealed the cache hide.
Cache is in excellent condition however the log is struggling.
Visited 3 TB.

The cache was found in the last place we looked, which as usual was not the first place we looked. And not where I was expecting the cache to be found. Thanks for placing a fun cache guys. We do love your work. We signed the logbook. Of course we did that is way we play this game. Cache in pretty good condition for the cache age.

Easter 2020 was supposed to see South Australia Geocaching hosting the next Easter big MEGA event, GeoVenture 2020 at Millicent. GC82DAN. Due to COVID restrictions the event is now postponed to early October 2021. Check out the event page and our website for new details. We would love to see you at this four day event. Mega event sponsored by Wattle Range Council, Geocaching.com and many other supporters. Lots of caches to find with two classic geo art trails including the famous animated bottle and glass.

This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and a Samsung S8. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs...
Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun.

Came for a quick drive out here to find a couple of caches before heading back to camp. [^]
I too looked all around the pole but then spotted a familiar container a little way away. Stamped the log and replaced as found.
Thanks for the cache redcenterdazza.

This should have been easy, I think the muggles have this one. As it was missing!
Once we had left our bags at the hostel, we went for a drive around Alice Springs to take in the scenery and grab some caches. We looked at the landscape, the red earth and the white gum trees and thought how lucky we were to be here. Back home we'll even miss the flies... maybe.

This road is very busy being used as a short cut between the main Stuart Hwy and Larapinta Drive to the West Mac's , but found the cache okay, watching out for very fast traffic.
This was my 1,100 find.

We were in the area for a few days so decided to grab a few caches while we were here. This was a quick drive by for us, TFTC redcenterdazza.

I am really surprised this is still there considering the broken glass all around GZ. Grabbing a couple of caches was a nice was to finish our stay in Alice. Thanks.
We feared that this would be gone or destroyed given the broken bottles around GZ but it was just sitting there in its hiding place. Now we have to go and pack when we would much rather be caching. TFTC
Having cleaned up all the necessary mechanical work and maintenance work that we need to do this was to be our last day in Alice so we decided to head out and clean up a few more caches.
Although we have been out this road a few times over the last four months you can never get sick of the views of these ranges so it's always a pleasure to return. The cache itself was a nice easy drive by right where the GPSr was pointing and the log book now contains our name,
Many thanks redcentredazza for this cache.

As we made our way through the outback finding caches and having a great time
we found a range of caches some day with Team Cracker, Felix II and firesafe on the way home.
Thanks to redcenterdazza for placing the cache for us to find.
