G'day halez1993,
This geocache appears to be in need of owner maintenance. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the geocache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the geocache from being archived for non-responsiveness.
If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date.

RE: The cache "Swamp Walk 2 – The Friendly Swamp"
I'm following up on my "Needs Maintenance" log which is now well over one month old.
There has been no action by the CO since July 2022, and we think the cache may have been abandoned.

Ian & Penny

No finds since September and then 2 DNF's.
Could you please check to see if the cache is still in place?

If it’s in the garden with 2 trees I could not find anything.
There’s a security camera? pointing to those trees, up on the corner of the building. I didn’t feel comfortable scratching around in the garden and I couldn’t find anything hanging on the tree branches. Oh well I’ll go and look for number 5 as 3 and 4 aren’t listed on the map.

Easy find. Probably needs to be hidden better as not where it was probably supposed to be.
Found log lying in open. Put it in new container, left near tree base. Owner might want to check.
Took a bit of finding as it had blown off in the wind and was just led across some lower branches. Signed log and hopefully returned to where it should be - now to get out of here before the mozzies eat me alive. TFTC halez1993
Today our plan was to do the caches close to the inner part of town, I really don't feel we achieved this but we did find all of the caches that we attempted.
I looked at the distance that was needed to walk to complete this series and was unsure if I could manage it, but I headed off with hubby with the intention that he would continue on and I would return to the car if needed. According to the map there really was no choice, I had reached the point of no return when I decided that I would like to return to the car.
The trail was very easy walking which was fantastic, there was plenty to help keep me occupied with the bird life and the scenery. Cache #4 was an issue with us being unable to locate it with the listed co-ords, we read back on previous logs and found a set of co-ords posted by another cacher, these worked a treat. We could have done without the bats as they flew overhead as we disturbed them. Thankfully the cache that was in their sleeping area was found quickly.
With no #3 we resorted to a PAF to help us out here. Perhaps this number could be placed in the hints to help people out as the bonus cache cannot be completed without it.
