Boats in the Bay Denham, Western Australia, Australia
By coopercruisers on 19-Jan-19. Waypoint GC82KT3

There has been a new concrete path put in from here all the way to town. Looks like the cache would have been buried under the path as all the bushes near it have been removed too.

I am archiving this cache due to the unfortunate lack of action taken to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, coopercruisers, requesting additional time.

Despite ample opportunities provided for the Cache Owner to respond, their silence leads me to the conclusion that the cache has been abandoned.

In such cases, archived caches will not be unarchived, and as a result, this location is now open for the placement of a new cache by another interested party.

Thanks,

###Cache Maintenance Visit Required please.###
This geocache has been brought to my attention as needing an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache. See the [GCHQ Health Score](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713) process.
I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it checked by the Cache Owner.

The cache owner needs to:

* Take action to restore the cache or address issues such as correcting the D/T rating.
* Re-enable the cache by posting an Enable log
* Post an Owner Maintenance log to advise what has been done and to clear any Needs Maintenance attribute which is present.

Otherwise :
* Post a Note Log to request more time if necessary or provide other information..
**Do not use an Owner Maintenance log for this. That is for use only **when you actually do something to repair the cache**.

Alternatively:

* Archive the cache, and remove any remaining geo-litter from the site.

In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page to await owner action by coopercruisers and to take it off the playing board to prevent further geocaching community inconvenience.
[Please see the maintenance section of the Geocache Hiding Guidelines.](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance)
**I will check back in 30 days** to see that action has been by the CO.
If nothing has happened, I will assume that the cache has been abandoned, and, unfortunately, I will need to Archive this cache.
*Caches archived because of lack of maintenance/abandonment will not be unarchived.*

The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is in good condition, waiting to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.

Please see [my profile page](https://www.geocaching.com/p/default.aspx?u=Balayang) for additional information.
Thank you

Looks like it may have been cleared away

Looked and looked found nothing sadly

As others have stated, it looks like it is no longer there.

Been some road work, not sure if it’s lost

We looked for a while and didn’t find anything. Might need a check up.

We are having a little bit of time off from helping our friends in Nanson we decided to head north to try and collect a few more LGA's and Lab caches and anything else that pops up on screen.

After doing the nearby labs we headed off to this one to find that the area had had recent works done to it. Happily we read the previous logs and found the cache was still here and we had a search around at 13metres downhill but were unable to locate it in the time we had here.

Thanks for bringing us to a good spot anyway, perhaps you could update the new co-ords to make it easier for future finders

Heading North for a date with the whale sharks, and picking up some caches along the way!
What a stunner of a location for a cache!!
Quick find, log signed and everything replaced as found. TFTC

Lucky and fortuitous that as I pedalled up so too did two boys and one happened to be the very enthusiastic and friendly CO!! Nice ammo can and rest of ‘rusty’ progress so close to the sea. Lucky as indeed works mean the cache is down the hill a wee bit like 10-13 metre. In Denham for a few days with plenty of time to explore on trusty treadles and appreciate another AUS World Heritage site. Have travelled WEST from home base 4200 km away and that includes altitude as well so enjoying the landscape and habitat changes of this BIG country. TFTC and the lure to visit.

Hello I am one of the owners of cache!!

Geocache is still there just moved 13 meters down

Def gone with roadworks

13/5 There are road works here, might have covered it

13/5 roadwork prevented us getting access to the area

Heading North, I'm not sure how far we will go.

It's a beautiful area and we will visit again.

Awesome view during this find. Kids love the ammo boxes.

Found it! not too hard but was a bit confusing at the start

On our way to Little Lagoon we stopped here to enjoy the view and look out for this cache. It was quite a tricky one, as the coordinates are about 12 to 15 meters away from GZ. It was a hint in a prelog that finally allowed us to be successful.

Thanks for the cache and regards from Switzerland.

Found with Dozenmater, TFTC

TFTC- found with rainygirl74
Took TB

Found it after a while.
Dropped a Traveler. He has a fantastic view, in case he gets a room with seaview….
TFTC

Leave an FP as well for the view

Wooho! First find in a long time. Some previous notes are quite helpful

TFTC and thanks EricaBrown65 for the notes, the only way I could have found it.

Found. Co ords in hints worked well.

Yeah, very hard to find.. Go to middle of at end of parking, facing town.. Hopefully little arrow is still on the log and it helps..
Otherwise a great cache..
Found an item to move on, so will place in another cache along the way back to Perth.. Will try log it

Found a travel bug.. Will try log it but will definitely hide along the way back to Perth

Great view. Coordinates are a little off. TFTC

Found with the help of the coordinates

A nice view and a great cache!! Best hint found below. From the marked point walk towards the middle of line of boats about 15m!

Coords in off and no hint… not very helpfull. We found and waste. DNF after a long search

tftc

Pog

Tftc. Agree that coordinates are really off but good once you find it.

Little further than Gps says no trackable but nice view

Could spend hours here
Tftc

Little bit of bush wandering to find and a few kangaroos around as is expected with the sunset. Super cool cache, well worth a stop

The coordinates are definitely a long way out at reading previous logs, assisted in making the find. A great view on the breezy morning.

Very good cache TFTC. Go further into the growth and under a bush. About 15 metres further diagonally into the growth from the pin. Coordinates are off and should be changed. TFTF

Coordinates are off makes it a little hard to find. Good placement though, quite rusted as well but fudge for yourself.

Today is day 4 of my Exmouth trip and I spent the day here in the Denham/Monkey Mia area ! Lots of interesting and wonderful places to be explored were waiting for me . On this beautiful day I was able to collect many traditionals in Denham and some other caches close by..... Thanks for showing me this special area by placing your GCs [:o)].

TFTC

PS: Coords are 15 meters off, just use 224/371 for a quick find [:o)].

Found it

Found. Great view.

Outnabout on our last day before heading home. Thanks to updated coordinates from previous finder we were able to sign the log. 2000 for us. TFTC

Great view, needed to walk abit deeper, cool case too, thanks for the cache!

Thanks to Happy Feet 1 for the coords. Wasn't able to find it without this. Amazing views!! Tftc.

Fouries was here

TFTC coords out but keep looking under bushes great view

Great views of the bay and islands. Nice to see a traditional ammo still in play. TFTC

We loved the container great cache

Catching up on some late logs, now that I have time, while travelling.

We are on the road travelling up through central Australian and down the coast of WA. I was happy to grab a few caches along the way and this was one of them.

Didn't take too long to find, knowing the co-ords were out. Try S25 55.224 E113 31.371. Great to find a good size container out here but amazing how much it has rusted.

Thanks for placing this cache and doing the maintenance, so we can enjoy finding it.

Going by previous comments, the coordinates are not correct. Please correct this so others may a problem free hunt.

Bit tricky

Great spot for sunset. Spotted some emus. Found this one about 15m diagonally off the corner where the location says. Cool caching container. Love those. TFTC

Not quite at spot

We went with 15m from the corner of the car park and AB73 spotted this one. TFTC and bringing us to this great spot for sunset.

Approx 15m diagonally out from the cnr of thr parking area where the coordinates point to

Nice one for the kids, great views from the lookout! TFTC!

Found ??

Is not at ground zero and since you're not supposed to go stomping through the growth we have to leave it. Worst geo placement ever:-(

Found it. TFTC coopercruisers. Happy to make the find here while passing. Replaced as found. Found about 15m from my GZ after extending my search.

Photo. Cache and log book OK. TFTC

Found great veiw

Glorious day in the bay

On our way back to Monkey Mia after coming into town for lunch

4K swim yesterday, back home to Bindoon tomorrow

Tftc. Great view. Lots of boats.

Took a couple of minutes before Rajah2 spotted it. According to our gps it was about 16 metres from GZ but all okay. SL TFTC coopercruisers

Found it after a short time

Tftc!

Great view and good find kids loved searching for this one.

Very cool! Stealth mission with a view, TFTC

??

Could not easily spot and getting too dark for me to be sticking my hands into bushes

Easy find

Tftc. Travel bug EMPR1Q left.

TFTC! It was pretty easy with 3 of us. The cache isn't at GZ so next cahces at this cache just you may need to get some shoes on and go on a little journey! We walked from the Caravan Park to get this cache. This was our 3rd for the day. The cache is a bit damaged with rust on the outside and the seal is broken. But anyways a great cache!

Note: The trackable isn't in this cache.

Thanks creator for this Geocache. I walked down the road from the seaside caravan park to the carpark and found it. Good luck!

Quick find TFTC

A lovely view from here on my way to snorkel @ Little Lagoon. Thanks.

Found

Good find. Nice view of the sea

Beautiful lookout, we enjoyed the view. The cache is not at the posted coordinates but expanding the search in the direction of the ocean we found the big box.
TFTC. SL.

Thanks for the other logs to Point to the coords in my photo.
