Unfortunately there has not been a response (or regular update) from the cache owner within the period requested and, as per the original advice, this cache is now being de-listed (Archived) as abandoned.

If there are components or remnants of the cache, please recover them as we don't want to litter our environment.

If you wish to contact a Reviewer regarding this cache, please send an email via the profile - [**Bunjil**,](https://coord.info/PR9GZ0K) and quote the Cache Name and GC Identification Code.

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

----------

Hi there grannygeo64,

This cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as a cache that **MAY** need some attention.

You may recall having received an automated email from Geocaching HQ which explained what you needed to do.

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)

**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 to check, repair, 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 the above. Well, when the cache is next checked by a Reviewer, if the issue has not been addressed, or there is no acknowledgment as requested above, it will be assumed the cache has been abandoned and processed accordingly.

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.

Thanks for your cooperation,

Bunjil

Did not find

Met up in Yallourn North for an afternoon of caching with the lovely Tix13. Headed out to a group of caches at Lake Narracan before heading to Westbury area Stopped here full of hope but after searching in a thorough manner came up,empty handed

No luck today, even with a past finder with us!

Searched for a little while, no luck, long grass and lots of spiders!

Maybe the floods have damaged it

A quick find. Wet boots but no snakes thanks for the cache!

Found it! Nice hide. I’ve never been down this road and now I can say I have. it was pretty wet here because of the recent rain but the log was still writable
Tftc

Turns out second time was the charm! As it was, I expected it to be way more disguised than it is - but it didn't need to be to clever to hide in plain sight Thanks to Grannygeo for yet another bush adventure, and TFTC!

Good hiding spot!

It's a wet day here in Moe. Plenty of water running in the river and plenty of long grass at GZ. I don't like seeking micros (especially in the bush) so I had to tell myself to remain calm and be patient. I finally found the little fella in its hidey hole. I might be wrong but I suspect a previous finder has placed a stalk of grass nearby. The jewels are still in the bison. Be patient when reassembling the cache and you'll be able to make it fit together. SL with my initials. TN LN Returned cache to its hidey hole. Thanks for bringing me here today.

Second time searching, after scouring the logs and staring at it for who knows how long it appeared well hidden indeed Good find, left 5 little gemstones don't forget to watch out for bitey bitey no no's

First one I’ve ever found number 18 on the log

Still no luck with this one. 3rd time here.
Might need a hint on this one

The Sun had come out and living in Baw Baw shire we were not locked down so I decided to head out for a day out of the house and a nice walk along the Moe - Yallourn rail trail, Gippsland has some great locations to visit and lots of caches that have not been found in awhile, so with my new caching gear gloves, sanitizer and mask. I had a great time touring around the area finding caches and exploring new places. This could have been a lot harder than it was, thankfully I found it on My second time around, some one had cut up one of the bramches and left some of the wood behind, it will burn well in My fore Pit.

Thanks grannygeo64 for the cache.

Took a little hunting but we found it in the end. Tftc

Easy find tftc

Reading previous logs we psyched ourselves up for a long hunt, but this was so easy that I had to wonder if the cache used to look different or more well hidden!

TFTC.

Went and checked the cache, it is there waiting to be found

I gave this one about 15 minutes but no luck this time

No luck in a joint cache hunt with Genghicat. Didn't really have any idea of height to look or if our GPS was being accurate so soon gave up. Tftc

Today was my third visit to find this little blighter.
After contacting the CO, and confirming that it was hidden on the object I expected, I returned with a ladder to check some of the higher possibilities. This was not needed.
After about a quarter hour, there it was, in a very obvious place. How could I have missed it? I don't know, but I happily signed the log and took it off my list of failures.
Thanks Granny. It's been a challenge.

What a lovely spot with some amazing old gums around. Phone was telling me about 5 meters off but that may have settled had I not walked straight to the cache. Would have liked something a little bigger but thanks for bringing me to the spot.

Thanks grannygeo64 for the cache.
Found at 4:37 pm on 2/2/19.
Find # 1225

On my second visit to find this, I brought my wife to help. Although we spent at least a half hour searching, we came away empty handed. Thanks anyway.

Spent way to long crying over this

The most hectic cache I have ever come across. Thank you.

Can’t find anywhere. DNF for us.

Out for cache day at Moe with Crank1. DNF here. I guess it’s too ghostly for us to continue searching as it was so freeze here.

As part of our early morning cache hunt me and a friend stumbled around here for about half an hour at 3am searching all over the place. Only to realise how silly we were when we found it and compounded when I forgot to bring a pen. Well Hidden!! TFTC.

A nice day to be out caching and found this cache today.

TFTC grannygeo64

Sorry

Great hide tftc



*Found with [Geooh Live](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohLive)*

Out and about while the sun is shining and grab a couple of coaches
before something else becomes more important. No snakes or spiders..
Thanks grannygeo64 FTC.

Stopped off on our way to the hills . Had a 3 minute search amongst the roadside debris to locate it .
Signed logsheet Kingfisherau 2/02/2018, 3:34 PM and replaced all as found,
grannygeo64 - TFTC.
2 X TB Visit.

Tftc. Thanks to dry weather of late and the other seekers recently, the grass is well downtrodden so nice and clear to watch for slithering beasts. The tree is a majestic granddaddy and one only hopes that there is no future need for road realignment to take it away.

Found after work while its not so hot, no snakes today.
Paulnmax dropped by just as I found it. Quick find TFTC grannygeo

2tf
Well that was an adventure something so small hidden somewhere so big after a bit of a search it was finally in hand and signed while cars drove past giving me that look of what the hell are you doing with that tree ha ha tftc

Found with kashbound. .. well i caught him finding it, so i cashed in on it too

DNF, searched for a good 20 mins, lots of bark and underbrush if it's at ground level, then it's a hard one to find!

**FTF** 14:48 15/1/2018
After widening my search to include the bracken with blackberries (ouch in shorts) ... I honed in on the GZ co-ords and looked harder. There's the little blighter!!

Published

Haha that sucks!!!! We had a really good look in a spooky gz. My heart was racing with the fear of rumbling across a snake. Ended the search softer 15 minutes and my
Eldest purring his hands in the ranky puddle that was full of dumped rubbish. Thank gosh for hand sanitizer
