Unfortunately, there has not been a response to the last request/s to attend to this cache, or provide regular updates. As a result it must be assumed that the cache has been abandoned by the cache owner and regretfully, the cache is now de-listed (Archived).

Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained here: [**Unarchive a geocache**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56). If there are components or remnants of the cache, please return to the GZ and collect the cache (or remnants). 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 Identification Code.

This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.

Needs Maintenance Log on 21/04/2020 (wet log) has not been addressed/resolved.

The Maintenance Request from Reviewer on 21/08/2020 has not been addressed/resolved. Cache has been disabled since this date.

In an attempt to assist the CO I have on 18/02/2021 attended to check on the cache and found the cache to be missing. The last time this cache was found was on 9/7/20.

Other caches by the same CO that were in this same park have had similar problems and have subsequently been archived.

There has been no CO intervention to address any of the above issues.

For the reasons stated above - I believe this cache should be archived to allow others to use the space for new caches.

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

Hi there Cache Owner,

It looks like this cache might need some attention, as one or more seekers have indicated there is an issue with the placement. The cache is being 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.

Whilst it is recognized that as a result of the current COVID19 situation, it might not be possible for a Cache Owner to just pop out and check on a cache, we still need to know that you are on top of the issue.

CO's of caches disabled during the current COVID19 crisis will be given some extra time to react. Caches where the cache owner does not currently feel it is safe to maintain will not be archived in the normal time frame, as long as there is some indication from the CO. Don't let a lack of communication kill this cache.

#What should you do:-#
- Should the regional Health and Victorian Government requirements allow it **AND** you feel it safe for you to maintain this cache now, please feel free to do so. Don't forget to log an 'Owner Maintenance ' log and also Enable the cache once the issue is fixed.

- **Alternatively,** what you need to do is place a Write Note log indicating a date when you you expect you might be able to attend to the issue/s.

#Please Note#
When the cache is next checked by a Reviewer, if the issue has not been addressed, or there is no acknowledgment from the CO as requested above, it will be assumed the cache has been abandoned and processed accordingly.

**JUST A HINT:-** In case you are not aware, there is a 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 you cooperation,

Bunjil

Found it!

Very wet log, however we managed to wrire in it. Good hide and good clue

Easy find, good hint

What a beautiful sunny blue sky day and perfect day for a bike ride!
This was a nice park to visit and see the birds on the water. The cache was a quick find between muggles however I did not sign the soaking wet log as the pages were all stuck together. Photo taken for evidence if required.
Thanks for the hide and a showing another great place for a barbecue for future times.

Good one thanks

Nice one, thanks!

Log is extremely wet. Would’ve replaced but didn’t know if CO would approve.

Recovered one of my own missing TB’s

Found it on my walk this afternoon! What a beautiful park.

Stunning park! Highly recommend

Found it !

Found it, there was water inside and the log was soggy, nevertheless, a good spot.

Nice hiding spot. Good find, tftc.

Good hide, found on a lovely stroll at night.

This was our second visit to the park as there were too many muggles around last time - a lovely afternoon for a walk. Thanks for the cache! The log was a bit wet - some maintenance needed.

Great find, trolls must’ve been having a picnic.
FYI logbook wet

Lovely weather today but it's humid and finding your cache
Geojill_11, thank you so much for placing it.

Thanks for the cache. Log was soggy and full of water. Tried drying it out a little though the logbook will need to be changed soon.

TFTC. Great little walking track. The log book is wet.

YAPIDKA! What a lovely park. Rarely venture past a particular meridian so nice discovery TFTC

Tftc

Good hide!!

Out to find some caches today, thanks the cache. Geojill_11.

Found it together with Taty_Cortes.
TFTC

Find it, TFTC.

I like this area. Might have to explore further! TFTC

Found it

After not finding 2 other caches we were determined to find this one! We did it with help of photos. Unfortunately our pen ran out of ink as well. Tricky find, but we did it.

Very good hiding spot! TFTC.

Stay grounded

Good hiding place

Tftc. Gorgeous place, felt like we were away from civilization.

Petite sortie pour loguer quelques caches

OJ found it, great quick find.

After spending most of the day indoors on this beautiful day, it was time to get outdoors. Geo kid 1 and her muggle friend in tow, we set out for Namatjira Park for a geocaching adventure.
A pleasant walk through the park to the GZ. Nice lake and various birds wading and sitting on the banks. Saw a lovely family of ducks complete with ducklings.
At GZ geo kid 1 makes a quick find.
Container a bit damp and filled with a little bit of unnecessary rubbish. We removed it and only left some actual nice swaps that were already in there. We dried out the container and signed the log.
At the end of the walkway the kids saw some fur on the ground. We all had a discussion about which animal it could be from. Geo kid 1 and her muggle friend thought it was fox fur . I had thought it looked more like possum.
There were 2 others to find nearby so we made our way to those next, opting to take a short cut on the grass lake verge rather than the bridge.
Thank you for the cache here Geojill_11

Found!

Thanks.

Found after a pleasant walk in the park, signed and visited thankyou for bringing me to this place and cheers.

Quick find.

It was very dirty and wet inside the cache BUT LOG BOOK DRY.

TFTC

Are we missing something? Should be here but we can't spot it even after scrabbling around on all fours

Had to get down on all fours to get a lock on this one at GZ! T4TC

Looked and looked but the rain was gonna fall.

the trolls ate it! Next time! Merihunter over and out.

That was fantastic. Took me a second to put two and two together

Those pesky trolls know how to hide them. Took 20 minutes for find this one. But they got outsmarted. Great spot.

Gotta love those grumpy old trolls

Cache was wet but logbook was dry. What a neat little park filled with interesting wildlife. Thank you for bringing me here.

Thank you for the cache.

Great hide. Getting lots of swaps today

Enjoyed the walk from the car park to GZ .. I was accompanied on my walk across the grass by a friendly group of swamp hens .. I guess they thought I had food!! The cache was quickly found, it was full of water but the logbook was ok. THanks Geojill_11 for placing the cache.

I had to wait a little while for the coast to clear.

Then my search started.

Luckily found in the second spot I looked.

I took the bench seat and signed the llog.

Then moved on my way.

Found it after looking around and waiting fort muggles to pass.

Out and about on a (reasonably) nice Saturday afternoon, hunting for some caches in the area. Took me a little while here before seeing the hiding spot - TFTC!

Was DNF last November so today after work to find some caches in Clayton area for doing the Mystery at the Museum challenge. Found it. Thanks Geojill_11 for placing the cache

Today I went out to collect some of the 35 caches required to place the jewels in the vault for Mystery at the Museum.
I had a lovely walk around this beautiful park. A windy day, and a very quick find. Thanks Geojill_11

Yeet

??

OMG the cache slipped way down and took a bit to retrieve it. Nice location. TFTC

Wrote a note and put coin

Nice little treasure.

Found it no pencil inside so logged digitally!

Nice easy one. Thanks!

Great spot.

Nice one. Actually easier than we made it out to be!

I have an addiction. Why else would I be out hunting for a cache on an icy windy morning? Ah, the joy of discovery, fortunately a quick find. Sat on the seat to write the log. Dropped Magic TB. TFTC

Straight forward find, TFTC

Initially headed below and had a good look about with no success. Then resorted to blindly groping about and felt something familiar - there’s a joke there about taking my hand out of my pocket, but no that would be too rude? Cache retrieved and log signed and onto the next.. thanks..!!

Really easy to find . Thanks ..

In the area gathering supplies for a job when I found myself with some time to waste. I have cached this park before so I know the trails and how quickly I can scoot around them. With many a muggle wandering the park also I needed to wait a bit for the coast to clear before I attempted to search. This gave me time to contemplate where I should be searching and narrowed down my options. With a noticeable break in the foot traffic I went for it and the cache was easily discovered in the second location I looked. Sat and signed the log book, then looked back at who had been here before me. Now all I need is another opportunity to put the cache back. This may take a while. TNLNSL. TFTC. Kkams

Took a while but we eventually found it

Getting dark but we felt very smug at our reasonably quick find. TFTC

Ah ha! Trust the 9 year old to understand the hint! Brilliant!

Found some muddy boots also!

Happy Mothers Day!

Found it.
Was not visable.
Someone was over enthusastic when hiding it.

We looked in the obvious places and didn't find unless it was buried.

Couldn’t get deep enough in the cobweb I think ️

Tftc

Great spot! A fabulous park we’ll be coming back to visit. TFTC

With CJD. out in the open. We put it back into it’s hiding spot

Found out with GurTheWanderer.
Visited 3 TB.
