Disabling for some maintenance

Out with Mrs JTreeTrack2 for the afternoon. Headed out towards Pootilla and did some caching while we were out.

Loved this cache, good fun and clever.

Cache found and signed.

The weather has gone from ️to ️ time to head for shelter. But always time to grab another cache.
I stopped to see what caches were around and normally I steer wide of the mysteries but there was a couple near each other that caught my eye. This is the second one I opened and seen part of how to solve this. This doesn’t happen very often and this is the second one !! Stand back, magic is happening

Welfare check and log replaced. Good to go.

Back in play.

### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED PLEASE** ###

----------

Hi there Glanville Girls,

It looks like this cache might need some attention, as one or more seekers have indicated there is an issue. The cache has been temporarily disabled, so as to remove it from search listings and discourage people from visiting this location until the issues/s with this cache can be addressed.

**You do need to respond in some way within 14 days, so others know you are on top of it, as well as indicating exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication scuttle this listing.**

#What should you do now:-#
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-

- **Check On The Cache:-** Visit the cache and repair and/or replace or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked and [**ENABLE your cache**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ). Then sit back and wait for the logs of praise to roll in.

- **Place A Write Note Log::-** Reviewers don't have a crystal ball, so without your note on the cache page explaining that the site works are on-going, or you have been in hospital, or the area is in flood, they can't tell what is going on with the cache.
So please just post a note to the page (within 14 days) and when a Reviewer next looks at the listing, all will be fine for a little bit longer.
**Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. If you have a long term unavailable cache (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 4 to 6 weeks, so as to keep everyone up to speed.**

- **Adopt/Archive:-** If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**Archive it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56), so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when a Reviewer next looks at the cache page, it is likely that they will, unfortunately, have to de-list (Archive) on the basis that it has been abandoned.

Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

**JUST A TIP:-** Have you checked out the new Geocaching Dash Board designed to assist a Cache Owner in managing the caches they own? Have a read about it [**HERE.**](https://www.geocaching.com/blog/2020/07/welcome-to-the-cache-owner-dashboard/?newsletter=PM) You will find your very own dash board [**HERE**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/owner?utm_source=geocaching&utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=COD).

Thanks for your cooperation,

Out for a quick collect near home to keep filling in the calendar. TFTC.

Nifty little cache. The loop and log was filled with water. Maybe a drain hole in the bottom would help

TFTC very clever. Log is wet though so we couldn’t sign the log. All the calf guardians came to say hello. It was freezing cold. We couldn’t get out the cold quick enough. Grabbed this cache for our cache for the day to fill our calendar. Found with Algae. I’m giving a fav for this one for being so different

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

After finishing the GeoTour and waving off quiet1_au who had to get back to Melbourne, we had a few more hours before we had to depart so we made our way towards some solved puzzles, this being one of them.
This cache is absolutely in our Top 3 caches for the weekend and a great cache to finish off our time in Ballarat! Somehow, and I really don’t understand how, the log book is soaked and needs changing. Nonetheless, absolutely a Favourite Point from us !!
Farewell Ballarat … we’ll be back!!

Another great cache, another favourite for me

We have headed to Ballarat to attend doctor appointments and in our spare time head out to areas that we have not cached in to find the many geocaches that have popped up in the forest areas. Most of the roads were acceptable, some geocachers were on walking/bike riding section which hubby hiked on and I drove the car and would pick him up along the way. All geocaches were found and were in good condition. SL TFTC

Found at 10:57 am.
I headed up this way today for the Geotour Event #4 since I hadn't been to a geotour event yet but I did stay for a couple days last year with the government $200 "head to country travel vouchers" and completed the tour then.
Had to look very carefully to solve this puzzle but got there in the end. Today at GZ, what an awesomely designed cache. A favourite from me.
Thanks Glanville Girls for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

Found it out and about with annabella02, great hide ,tftc

We had a suspicion of how to get the coords thanks to some other caches we had solved using the online method. Got to GZ today and the penny dropped on where the log was. Enjoyed the anticipation with this one! TFTC, a fav of ours.

Day out caching with sassieold55, enjoyed getting the cache out of Marble Manor A fav point for this one. TFTC

**Helping a cousin move to Creswick**
One that has been on my GPS for months and months now so it was time to tick it off as I was in the area (again) A clever hide deserving of a favorite point.
Thanks for the cache Glanville Girls. Appreciate your efforts.

I was able to finally work this one out today as the marbles almost came loose in my head. A fun fun cache. TFTC

Found with Cybergran V and her Muggle Hubby on our great adventure to Ballarat for the grand opening of the new GeoTour.

This is the one I saved my last favourite point for. [^]
Its a bottler.
I loved the puzzle. I kind of knew what I had to do but got a nudge on the line to get the numbers.
The field puzzle was great fun and I got it without any fudging.
TFTC Glanville Girls. You shot this one right out of the circle.

I could see what needed to be done to solve the puzzle but needed assistance to capture the necessary information.
Déjà vu for me here, I’ve surely done this cache before in a different spot, so knew what to do without reading the hint.
Enjoyed it just as much as the first time, so adding another favourite point, thanks Glanville Girls.

Have had this one solved for quite some time so today whilst in the area, we made a detour and soon had this one sighted and signed. Once again Granville Girls a great idea and construction. Well done.

Out with bogonghazy for a rare day of caching. Had this solved during Covid but only managing to get out now. A great puzzle and construction at GZ . Thanks Glanville Girls for the puzzle and cache. A fave of course.

Out and about with Sorceysal today attempting the Goldfields series. This was one of three that SS had solved, and we had just enough energy left after mostly walking the whole day, to do these on our way home. A very clever hide with a little twist left in it's tail.
Thanks Glanville Girls, another cache that deserves a fave point from me

With Covid 19 restrictions being lifted we had a plan to meet up with maccamob in Creswick but we were also going to grab as many adventure labs as we could along the way and a few solved mysteries.

We were banging our head against the wall on this one until we were given a small nudge from another cacher who told us to try something we had already looked at but this time we had a different out come. Very sneaky.

Again as we were driving so close by we weren't;t going to go passed a solved puzzle and again we are so glad that we stopped. We were fortunate that we had seen something like this before and knew immediately what to do and after a short time we were adding our name to the log.

Many thanks again Glanville Girls for the puzzle and the hide, another favourite point form us.

Very cool find. Great way to get the log book out.

Such a great puzzle mystery cache. I'm really enjoying going out of my way to find some of your caches Glanville Girls. They're quite rewarding so many thanks.

We took an afternoon drive with Neisha07, Boo09 & the geo-puppy to Ballarat to grab a couple of things then detoured home to grab the Glen Park series.
I had done of these before so knew what to do and left the kids to figure it out. Log quickly found. Another great cache. Lego house had been our main target today not realising it was disabled. Fingers crossed it makes it return.
Thanks Glanville Girls, a great little series. We very much enjoyed it. TFTC

Found with Becca85, Boo09 & Sammy the geo-puppy. We loved this one! TFTC

Found with Becca85 & Neisha07 as well as our little puppy.
This one was awesome. TFTC

Glen Park certainly has some interesting real estate. We really like the color scheme here and left a FP for a well themed mystery/puzzle.

Our thanks to 'Glanville Girls' for adding this fun cache to the geo-gameboard.

Another one in the solved pile that needed finding. Another well constructed cache. Thanks for all the effort you put in for the enjoyment of other

Brilliant cache I ever seen it.
Thanks for bring me here and cache.
FP added

On me way into towne today,
I detoured past this short series of caches.
Great puzzles !!
Which kept me entertained at camp last night solving them

I did have to resort to a bit of computer trickery to solve this one
Me eyes just aren't quick enough !!

No problems finding this cache container today
Getting at the logbook took some muckin' about though
Fave dance for the puzzles,
both on the cache page and at GZ [^]

TFTC

A last minute decision last night to head up to Creswick for the CITO and Event meant a couple of quick messages to AusFox; and Neville_devil and I soon had a couple of copilots for the journey. We left early enough (But still a civilized time) to grab some caches on the way.
I remember trying to get the info for this one when it came out sometime ago. I had considered making one of these when I saw it on you Tube also along time ago.
Thank you Glanville Girls for your good work

Heading to Creswick to attend a CITO and Event and grab a few caches on route with Simsfamily and Neville Devil.
No one last their marbles today while working out this coll gadget cache.

A fun cache where both of us had the same idea at the same time.
Cheers Glanville Girls

Two brains working in unison , solving puzzles and then at GZ we grabbed the caps from each side at exactly the same time ! Then a marble fell, and some poking was required , it’s a bit wet in there, But soon log book was out and a goood adventure was had.

Thanks Glanville Girls for Glen Park - Marble Manor

#4035

Found in the company of Claybol on a geocaching day trip from Bendigo. This was so clever, I loved this cache. Thank you for bringing us here Glanville Girls, and thank you for the cache

How many ways can you say that someone has gone above and beyond in cache design and delivery. I have really enjoyed the whole Glen Park series and each one has made me ohhh and ahhh when I finally have the log book in my hand. This one almost made me jump up and down and clap excitedly. Probably would have if it wasn’t blowing a gale and my hands were frozen.

Thanks for the awesome cache Glanville Girls

Deja-Cache! We had found this crafty one prior in a previous location once before, so after we had solved the puzzle a few weeks ago, we were able to retrieve cache quickly on our travels today. We love the effort gone in to this one and appreciate the hard work gone in to it! TFTC, SL, CIGC

Although it was dark, we decided to take a small detour and collect this cache. So pleased we did as it was worth the visit. Thanks for placing it for us to find.

A few of us had been caching in and around Ballarat today as well as the events and CITO. We decided that even though it was dark and fairly cool, we would take a detour on our way back to Melbourne and try our luck with these caches. We are so pleased we did. They are great fun and well thought out and constructed. Thanks for the effort that you have put into them. They all are deserving of favourites from us. Thanks for placing them for us to find.

I had a great time with Geofriends to finding your cache Glanville Girls, fav from me thank you so much for placing it.

A day out in Ballarat with others resulted in some great times and as always, good finds. A few people in the car were targeting caches for different challenges, but I was just along for the ride... and perhaps the CITO. Thanks for placing the cache Glanville Girls, and for the puzzle. A fav point added for the container. I had a cache the same where I used to live that has since being adopted out!

Caching day with Geofriends after CITO, thank you so much for placing it Glanville Girls. A great cache so a fav from me.

Another fun find by this CO! TFTC

Had this one solved for sometime and have been meaning to come get it but could never seem to find an excuse to call by. But with another cache appearing nearby by there was no more excuses to delay claiming this cache. Except this cache was not going to give up its secrets to easy. Eventually the problem was solved and happily this one is now another smiley. Thanks Glanville Girls for another well crafted cache.

With an early start from Geelong au.fait & Flynn joined the ageing Bushfire to journey up to Pykes Reservoir for two Events and then slowly up to Creswick and arrived home about 6.30 after an enjoyable day of work, play and enjoyed good company all day.
We all added some extra points to our tally for the "Creation Celebration" competition and 500 is looking closer but still some work to do yet.
This guy was one our list and duly found, signed and returned.
Again a quality construction with lots of thought and effort, so another F.P.
Thanks Glanville Girls for placing this cache for us to find.

On a forecast damp dismal and not many degree day I met up with the ever obliging Bushfire and Flynn230103. After attending the events at Pykes Creek we used the remainder of the day caching lovers this cache too so another favourite point. Just as well I have a few in reserve TFTC Glanville Girls

Today I went out with Bushfire and Au fiat to chase some caches and to do some events along the way. Bushfire called last night for a pick-up in the morning, and of course I was ready. It was really cold, about 11 degrees, and after the first hour I was starting to regret my decision to wear shorts. We went up around Ballan, Creswick and Ballarat to do these caches. Anyway, thanks to all the owners of these caches, they were all excellent, and sorry for the generic log, I just have so many caches to log after today.

A very fun and unique design, the final was so much fun! Favourite point added

TFTC yet again, loved it

Found by Mary and David at 1015. In recent days we have been targeting COTY-nominations, and congratulations on your nomination for this one. We had a very early start this morning this morning to get to the Early Birds Event. At GZ we again admired the artistic flair of the Glanville Girls. We have seen a somewhat similar hide before, but this was still just so much fun. A FP from us. Our thanks to Glanville Girls.

I’d solved the puzzle a few weeks ago when I set my goal at trying to find as many of the Cache of the Year caches before having to vote on them. This was a great puzzle: not too hard and not too easy. I had even more fun when we got to final location and found we had to find our way into a great gadget cache to get to the log book! By this time it was virtually dark and a torch was needed to sign the log book and find my way out. The puzzle and cache were perfectly themed. I have allotted it a favourite point and consider it seriously when placing my vote. Thanks for a great challenge.

TFTC. We were in the area nad decided to detour back to Ballarat via this cache. Well worth the effort . We had solved the puzzle a week ago, so it was not long on the solved and to be collected pile. A favorite point for the hide construction.

Out and about today around some areas our little 2WD wouldn't like to travel.
Nice drive around here and a good cache hide.
Nice one for the drive home. Had enjoyed this one the first time we found it and the kids again had fun with the marbles.
Thanks for placing it.

Found with McAdies and Jelly_bean14 today.
Nice drive around the area.
Thanks for placing this cool cache for us to find.

Found with McAdies and Geo_Eddie.
Great day for a trip around geocaching today.
Thanks for placing this cache for us to find.

Congratulations!

This geocache has been nominated in the Victorian Geocache of the Year Awards for 2018 in the category of Best Overall Geocache.

TFTC Glanville Girls

Being home on holidays I've finally had some time to work on some mystery caches as I'm not normally very good with them. With help from a friend who showed me some more solving techniques I've had another look at the Glen Park series and finally something has twigged in the old grey matter and I've worked these out (although I did know what to do with Marble Manor, just too lazy to do it!)
So today with the geofamily and geodog along for the ride we've come out to do these well regarded caches. Mrs Perpetuallylost found this one and The Lego house, both great caches, loved the way the container revealed itself on this one.
Thx GreenvilleGirls for putting out these great Mystery caches. FP for each of them!

We had to read the hint for this one which had us shaking our heads a little until we actually saw the cache. It was an easy find once we worked out what the hint meant. I was out on a sunny afternoon with joojoo57
A favourite point from me due to the effort that you have put into your cache hides. It was much more interesting than finding a container hidden somewhere.

Having a caching afternoon with Benjay21 in the countryside just north of Ballarat. This puzzle taught me a few new puzzle solving skills. Great puzzle and a FP awarded. Thanks.

Solved this one a couple of days ago and was impressed with the set up. I don't believe that I have ever seen this before and a fave from me.

Loved the puzzle. Lots of fun

Another awesome cache from the girls. Found with cec.

Joined Papagrouch and SciFiRulz today for some caching and thoroughly enjoyed our journey. Loved the cache, thanks so much. FP

This is a really good cach.
TFTC with nicnax3

Found as Nicnax with PapaGrouch and MazzyMay. Great fun cache. TFTC

Love the cache!

Geotoddler wanted to see this one. She had fun getting the cache out.

Seeing this cache series, inspires me to put out creative caches like this one.

TFTC! FP worthy.

**Total find count: 494**

Today was a quiet caching day, interspersed with rain showers and shopping. A few interesting caches along the way.

Love seeing a good gadget cache. I have plans (well really intentions) to put out some gadget caches of my own. Seeing things like this in person makes the plans that much stronger.

Otherwise all is in good condition.

After solving this puzzle long ago, today I took a drive to find the cache. It is fantastic to see this brilliant cache re-incarnated. Thanks Glanville Girls, it is a cracker.

A quick find today as I detoured the long way home. A simple puzzle that even I could solve and a revival of a great cache. Well done - adding a fav point.

Brilliant cache, marvelling at how clever you are! TFTC

Found it. Loved it. You can't loose with this one. TFTC

After managing to gather the required information we finally headed out to see if we could add this one as a smile, Youngest team member loved this one, slowly the log was retrieved, signed and replaced, thanks for the awesome cache and the fun

Suscoe ventured up the highway today to Maryborough.
It was a lovely day to be out and about caching.
Sunshine followed us all the way, a cold start of 2 degrees finally ended up at 16 degrees.
The country looks fairly good at the moment but we suspect there is a need for good rains.
We headed back to Ballarat this afternoon picking up a few caches along the way.
Thanks to The Glanville Girls for this puzzle and hide.
A very clever and well constructed container at GZ.
We smiled and were impressed with your handy work.
A favourite from us. Great effort.

The GPS had me trying to follow a road that was non existent. Fortunately the hand held had better sense.
There were fond memories at GZ where the clever construction once again revealed the log book. All signed in and another smiling faced earned here.
TFTC Glanville Girls

Find #1821 for me. Found at 11:15 am while on my way to Ballarat from Bendigo with my 6yo daughter. I'd found the earlier version of this cache 2 years ago (almost to the day) but unfortunately at that time it had been badly damaged by muggles and the mechanism required to access the log sheet wasn't working as intended. Today, however, all was good at GZ and it wasn't long before I worked out what was needed to claim the find. My daughter enjoyed it too but didn't stay long as it was absolutely freezing (not helped by a brisk Antarctic wind!) so I took her back to the warmer car before signing the log-sheet which I replaced as found, and taking some photos of this amazing construction. Naturally I'm giving it another favorite point. Thanks once again for yet another fantastic cache Glanville Girls - you always amaze me with your unbounded creativity and super-talented craftsmanship! Top effort!

*29 Jul 2018, Found @ 7:02 am, Find # 8124.*

Today, I headed back to Ballarat to attend the CITO event at Union Jack creek tree planting but first I had another mission and the was to find a few more puzzle caches so that I could qualify for the 1000 Unknown cache challenge.
While on my way to this one a big rain front came through so I wait a few minutes before getting out of the car to find this one.
Once it was ok to get out, I headed over and realised what was in front of me, I hadn't seen anything like this but I was quickly onto it and a short time later I had the cache and the log was signed.

**Thanks to Glanville Girls for placing this cache.**

The day started out a lovely sunny winters day, but despite the cold wind kicking in, we enjoyed escaping the house and getting a fix of caching.

Puzzle solved soon after publication, and a well constructed and fun gadget cache awaited us.
Cache is in good condition. TFTC Glanville Girls.

What a wonderful cache. Very clever indeed.
Found with n0w0rries on our Ballarat geocaching weekend away.
Thank you for the cache, Glanville Girls.

Fourth find with +Wife for our Ballarat weekend away.
What an awesome sight!
Wedgetailed Eagles hunting overhead, harried by a few smaller birds.
A couple of dromedary camels sighted on our way in and a small herd of donkeys on the way out.
Thanks for the innovative caches and puzzles Glanville Girls.

10:16
With a CITO and a Parkville precursor event in Ballarat this afternoon being great incentives to head west, a full day of Geocaching was planned. Some of that plan even happened...

Third visit, and the second I'd hurriedly solved half cross-eyed at stupid o'clock this morning. But again, well worth the time and effort, due to that which has obviously gone into this one's construction. A fun finale to the series.

Glanville Girls, again, thanks for the effort, the puzzles (both online and field), and the fantastic cache containers. It's been a long time since I've given out three fave points in a row. I wish they could be given two each.

I solved the puzzle when it came out (I have a nice tool for that)
However I have been overseas and not to Ballarat for a while.
This cache went straight on today's agenda and I was suitably impressed with the hide.
The clue made perfect senses.
A favourite of course!

I got an evening call, asking if I was busy on Saturday. Seeing as I had no plans, I decided to join Na'wal on a road trip. We had a handful of solved puzzles to collect, so we packed the car and hit the road. We had the little na'wals in the back seat, keeping us entertained for the whole trip. We found a good mix of mysteries, trads and multis as well. Thanks to all of the CO's for creating and maintaining these hides.
A clever puzzle, topped off by an even better hide. A nice piece of construction here. TFTC Glanville Girls

DAB and I planned a last minute cache exploring day with the little Na'wals. The plan was to make our way through Creswick doing a little 4WDing and geocaching, targeting a few puzzles we had solved and a few others too. DAB and I worked together to solve this one and after working out what to do, we had co-ords to locate the final. What an awesome cache. I had planned on doing the other one like this but it was disabled the day before I went to find it. Thankfully we were able to enjoy the new version today. It didn't take us too long to work out was was needed and the log obtained

**Thanks to Glanville Girls for placing this cache for us to find and enjoy**
**A favourite from me**

Found in the company of The_Tritonz on an after dark cache run while they cleaned up a few in this general vicinity. It is good to see this one finally get published, I guess we have Beckster22 to thank for that. Thanks for the cache it is good to see this one up and running again.

Heading out for some targeted caches after a roast dinner at Mum's we set out for Glen Park to add 3 new real estate properties to our portfolio in the company of wozzle68. Like the latest edition to the area, these fun puzzles were solved the day of release making the open house inspections easy even in the dark.
Thanks Glanville Girls for the fantastic effort put into your series.

Puzzle had me cross eyed and then familiar sight at GZ helped me have the log soon signed. CIGC TNLN TFTC Glanville Girls.

After solving the puzzle l headed for GZ and another fantastic creation. I managed to retrieve the log without any drama. Thanks Glanville Girls a favourite point awarded.
