Unfortunately there does not seem to be any evidence that indicates that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement. It would appear the owner of this cache listing is no longer interested in the cache and the cache has been abandoned.

As such the cache is being de-listed (Archived). If there are components or remnants of the cache, please recover them as we don't want to litter our environment with Georubbish.

If you wish to contact me regarding this cache, please send an email via my profile - [**Bunjil**,](https://coord.info/PR9GZ0K) and quote the cache name and GC number.

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

----------

Hi there Geojill_11,

This cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as a cache that **MAY** need some attention. You would have received an automated email from Geocaching HQ recently which explained what needs to be done.

Unfortunately, nothing seems to have happened, so I am having to take the next step and temporarily disable the cache - see here: [**Geocache Health Score.**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713) .

**Can you please respond to this situation (or indicated your intention) within 14 days,** so others know exactly what is happening with this cache?

You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:

- Check on the cache, repair and/or replace the cache 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 praises.

- If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (within 14 days). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. For ongoing issues (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to speed.

- 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 I next look at the cache page, it is likely that I will, unfortunately, have to de-list (Archive) it 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.

Couldn’t find this one today.
 
25-Sep-19
Definitely not the cache. Just a red herring. Looks like it has been muggled
 
21-Sep-19
Spent a good 40 minutes looking for the cache. My gut feeling is that the item in the photo isn’t the cache (it’s stuck in there quite firmly). Will come back on a less rainy day to have a better look.
 
26-Aug-19
That’s a quirky one

I'm a newbie on Geocaching, so not sure if this is the cache we are supposed to find on the "tree blindness", also no signing book to be seen around. But considering the description for this cache says it's a small one, I though no notebook would be provided to be signed in. If so, I guess I found the cache #3 but not sure about cache #2 (not displayed on the map) being on a tree close to the church end, as there is a Presbyterian and a Catholic church surrounding Bald Hill Park. I presume a better description and maintenance should be provided by its creator and it would be much appreciated, so geocachers (including newbies, myself) could keep the enjoyment of this interaction going on, have a great one everyone and happy geocaching Smile

Came looking here as I saw it was fixed but not showing on my mobile map due to being dissabled a day after it was fixed, Bit rough when you get a reveiwer note less than a day after a report lol, Not 15 months of DNFs as previous cacher suggest just a couple lol, oh well will have to come back another day

No cache replacement since last owner update. No finds in over 15 months.
Needs Archiving.
 
28-Dec-18
seems to have gone missing. will replace asap
 
23-Dec-18
Sadly not today, did not find at 10:23 am
Out doing a little early last minute Christmas shopping but I'm happily doing more geocaching than Christmas shopping, I suppose you could call it "Boy Shopping" Wink
First DNF for the day and it looks as though this one is missing, had a good look around, read many previous logs and it seems that it shouldn't be this hard.
I think this one needs to be checked by the CO.
**Thanks for placing this cache Geojill_11**

Had a couple of hours to kill before an end of year function at Huntingdale golf course and was very happy to discover a plethora of caches nearby.

This was the sixth of 9 but unfortunately my second DNF for the afternoon. Had a reasonable hunt around, but just couldn’t make the find today.
 
01-Dec-18
Only time for a very quick search as we needed to be in Gardenvale in about 20 min. But no luck. We did note another DNF for today. We must have been tree blind as well as time poor!
 
01-Dec-18
Not tree blind just blind. Without a hint I struggled .

Awesome park...not what I was expecting

I was down from Sydney for a few days visiting relatives in Clayton, so of course found time to knock off some local caches. Thanks for making a lovely visit to Melbourne even better Geojill_11!

Went out caching today/tonight with Sinornithosaurus and ended up hauling around 14 caches all in all. I had uni today but we had planned to cache around class and we ended up having a blast finding so many awesome caches!! Visited some trackables, #393

neat little cache which was found reasonably quick, took a TB and will continue its travels around Melbourne and beyond Smile thanks

Nice cache
 
22-Sep-18
Nephew Wesley discovered this one on a day of caching through these two neighbouring parks, also with my dad and nephew Declan. It was easy to find (although I, peering at my phone, walked right past it). 50th GC find for me! We deposited TB: Discover Me Tag NO TREE NO ME in here. He's only just started his journey, so hopefully someone can swing past and take him towards Queensland. We picked up TB: grafinator's HQ Duck Dash and will see him on his way!

19-Aug-18
Went for a walk with my dog, ZOE, and did some treasure hunting. What a beautiful park!

Swapped the TB with one of mine, I'll travel to Europe next week and will take it with me.

Thanks for the caches Geojill_11!

 
19-Aug-18
Great little hiding spot!
 
17-Aug-18
Had to wait out a few walkers before delving into the area for a quick find.

Another TB found here so swapped with one of mine.

Signed and replaced.

Thanks Geojill_11

Since moving from New Zealand I have been enjoying the area, exploring and finding caches.
So far I’ve knocked off 4 of the states. VIC, SA, NSW and A.C.T
No two areas are the same here and almost every place I go is stunning. The beauty of caching is that it takes you to so many places you would never usually find.
Thank you to all the cachers out there for hiding and maintaining their caches. Especially to those who put so much effort into creating unique and fun hides.
The caches I’ve found in Australia so far have for the most part all been in great condition. Keep up the good work.

This one was very well hidden . Once in our hands the log was signed , a trackable dropped off and all back safe again.
Thanks

Definitely a feeling of dejavu as we walked around this lovely park and surrounds. We visited this park about five years ago when we first started caching. Enjoyed the day and found nine caches today, amazingly with no DNF's. TFTC

After the nearby CITO I decided I had time for a few more caches before heading home. This park was on the way so I stopped for a quick walk. This one was a fairly straightforward find though I imagine if you weren't looking at it from a particular angle it might be slightly mpre difficult. Clearly a day of caching has sharpened the geosenses. TFTC!
 
21-Jul-18
My only plan for the day was to attend the CITO. Beyond that, I was free to choose. I was with Alansee doing the caches in this park. Like what happens a lot of the time, the cache can often be found only when you look at the right angle. That happened here, and a quick backward glance was all it took to spy the hiding spot.



My thanks to Geojill_11 for the cache.

Found with Muzza today, An easy enough find thanks one we turned around.

A great day out for a stroll and some geocaching.
Took nothing, left nothing.
A lovely park for getting out and finding a geocache or two, so thanks for hiding these geocaches around these lovely parks.

Found this cache today while grabbing a few smilies with omegaman1971. Another pleasant park to come for a wander around and also the chance to grab a cache or two was also a added bonus. We managed to quickly locate this hide and have it logged without too much trouble, thanks again Geojill 11 for the hide and the walk around this lovely area.

Today I needed to walk and think and I found myself here. Checked and sure enough there was a find nearby. Thank you for the much needed distraction
 
11-May-18
With some time to fill in, thought I would brave the wild and windy weather and walk around this park. Found this one first after a short search
Thanks Geojill_11.

Working out in the garden preparing three new garden beds and then out to get a load of very good looking soil in the old ute.
I was going to spend Sunday shoveling soil but that all changed with a call from my very good caching mates the suscoe cachers.
Would I like to join with them on another trip to Melbourne to grab a few more caches as we have found most in and around Geelong.
Well how could you refuse an offer like that so here we are at this cache on a lovely Sunday afternoon.
Once we worked out the best way in it was a quick find.
 
06-May-18
Suscoe decided that we should have a big Sunday drive today and so we prepared our tour of the local caches and got our good mate Bushfire along for the adventure with us.
We headed off bright and early, a cloudy start to the day but then approaching Melbourne the sun came out and for most of the day it continued to shine brightly on us. We got back home around 5:00 pm with a good collection of finds to record.

Thanks to Geojill_11 for this hide. what a nice parkland area. Dog folks and their dogs were using the equipment nearby.
