Plan to replace the cache and put in a great hiding spot so the muggles cant see it
Came up today it is indeed missing now will change this cache with a good container
I found two halves of caches and a tie in the bush. Photos will be sent to the CO.
*Valentine's Bike Adventure #8*Find 5 of 8.After a run of bad luck, it was great to actually find one!Thanks heaps for the cache!
I found this cache today on my Mega Geocaching Walk #11 - a 23,500 step walk from Coolaroo to Glenroy via the Moonee Ponds Creek Trail whilst also celebrating our 20th Geocaching Anniversary. From my previous find, I had to walk about 200m past to get across the bridge to come back for this one. Once here, no problem though. Thanks from D B-A
After nearly 2 weeks of cabin fever, I was excited to go out on a little trip today.Spiffy- selected this area as a nice spot for a scooter ride and we set out with his geokid.We had a few DNFs along the way and I'm not sure if the flooding or growth has hidden the other caches.. however this one was a quick find and we continued on the way.
We hadn't been for a scooter ride for a little while so headed this way with my smallest geokid and KristysAdventures as well in the pleasant weather and looked for a few along this trail that I am rarely near.There were a lot of spiky bushes and annoying thorns so we had a few DNF's and I still have a thorn in my finger now, 3 days later while logging these.Nice quick find here.Thanks GeoClasher5 for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.
That was a nice easy find considering we took so long with the one before that we DNF! Yay!
Found the new cache today in its new hiding spot. Hopefully it remains in place for may more cachets to find, thanks for replacing it so we can enjoy this area. ??????
Thank you so much for replacing this cache i just maintaninced it to there goes another bison tube if this keeps on going i will change cords
Unfortunately, it has been taken by those filthy mudbloods. There are two zipties on the tree, the lower one has the lid, but the log and rest of the container is missing
This is my second attempt at this cache. At first I thought it would be another DNF, but as I was walking away rechecking my phone GPS, I noticed that BrownBikeBandits had placed a new container. Thanks guys.
However, my pen died, so I signed the log with a piece of bark.

### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED?** ###
----------
This cache would appear to be in need of owner intervention, therefore I am temporarily disabling it so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.
Geocache maintenance is a cache owner responsibility and includes regular visits to the cache to ensure it is in proper working order, especially when a seeker reports a problem with the cache.
**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 you need to do:- #
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-
- **Check On The Cache** - once checked, place an Owner Maintenance log and then enable the cache.
- **Place A Write Note Log** - indicating a date when you expect it will be restored.
- **Adopt Out or Archive** - depending on whether you want it kept or for it to disappear.
Full details for each of the above choices can be found at [**GEOCACHE MAINTENANCE**]( https://wiki.groundspeak.com/display/GEO/Victoria) on the Regional Policies page.
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. [xx(]
It would be far better if you decide, so please do something before then. Please don't send an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.
Thanks for your cooperation,

Looks as though it’s been missing for a while but people have been logging it as found based on the fact that they’ve identified where the cache SHOULD be
I’ll claim this one however the cache container has been nicked. The zip tie remains however this one will need replacing by the CO.
This cache appears to have been taken- I did a pretty thorough search but can’t see it and based on previous posts it looks like it’s gone. Look forward to coming back when it’s up and running again. Thanks for your efforts

Came out here will be happy to come back if you can confirm
That it’s missing and there’s not somthing I missed
Cheers

As I had commented in the previous message I decided to log it as found because I was there but the cache and log book were missing.
This one was a much easier one to reach and no prickled to boot.
Thanks for another one here Team Justice
Thanks for another one here Team Justice
At first I saw something that made me think I wasn't going to be able to be successful, but I persisted and soon the cache was in hand. TFTC!
i dragged my sister to come with me and she kept talking about how we’re going to get kidnapped from this
Out and about with echidna44 doing what we love within our 15km limit. We had not been in this park before and its always good to discover new walks. Replaced logbook as it was very very wet O-ring missing That was weird as as we keep searching we found another black bison at the base of the tree now removed orange bison. Very weird. Thanks for our walk Team justice
Late log, finally catching up on the logging. Found this sometime before the supposedly “short sharp 7 day lockdown” in early August and it’s still ongoing to this day. Fortunately outdoor exercise and recreation is still permitted TFTC.
Out with xambo4u in the Jacana area for a fun day of caching. We found two bisons, one black and one gold. The log book was very wet, and xambo4u replaced it. Thanks Team Justice.
Checked today, cache had gone, replaced with a new one and all is in good working order now.
I found what i think was led over the cache. Seems someone had either ripped it out or it has gone missing.
Found. A little bit wet inside. These capsules don’t seal very well but still good fun
Escaping the Melbourne lockdown ... geocaching within our 25km! Stay safe everyone. TFTC
Going for a stroll might as well geocache at the same time. Nice scenery around the placement. Ez claps
