###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 parkacruz 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.

There seems to be a pattern with our caches being “misplaced” funny as they are extremely well camouflaged so not easily exposed to the typical muggle
Last found in 2019. Had a good long look and feel. Tried a few tools but no joy. Hope it's still here.
Came looked around for a while harder with the leaves will come back but maybe should be checked as no one can seem to find it
We won't mark this as a DNF as we couldn't look for it with the park full of muggles. We will have to come back for this one.
This cache is still here, you do need a retrieval tool, think outside the usual tools. Will lift the D rating to suit.
###Cache Owner Action Needed###
This cache has been brought to my attention as likely to be missing.
After a string of successful Finds, it has now had a string of DNFs. I agree that this certainly suggests that something has happened at the cache location which requires investigation by the CO.
I am going to Disable it, and I'll check back in 4 weeks to see if either
- the CO has checked or rectified the apparent problem
- the CO has communicated when action will be taken
If the CO has not taken either of these actions, then regrettably the cache will be archived.
The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.

Unfortunately we couldn't find this one. Thank you for the challenge parkacruz.
No luck here today. Will try again another time. Still so many caches to find in Ellenbrook...
With three pairs of eyes and tott we could not locate this one! The only DNF for papillon367 ullyssia and myself today, such a shame...
Spent a few hours with my geodaughter TH/CS tackling some of the Ellenbrook caches, 30 finds and a number of DNFs later we called it a day.
This one eluded us, our 10 minute time limit expired. Concentrated on the obvious

The Better Half and I came north of the river for a caching trip to accumulate some more close together finds for the Mystery at the Museum.
Once at ground zero it was a while before we found the cache container as we missed it the first time.
Log signed and cache returned as found.
Thanks to the CO for placing this cache for us to find.

Find 10 of 22 with one DNF and one Could Not Look on a bitterly cold bike ride around Ellenbrook and Aveley. Excellent entertainment mostly sponsored by Parkacruz again. We will miss our Ellenbrook trips if we ever finish these caches off!
Quick one here, thanks for replacing.
TFTC parkacruz!

The new Geocaching ‘mystery at the museum’ game had us scoping out areas where there were plenty of caches to find so that we could claim a few souvenirs. This spot looked just the goods and we made plans to head away early from Baldivis and enjoy a nice winters day! This cache was one that we found on our travels today. Cheers and TFTC.
G’day there parkacruz, I was in this area today and found your cache Supposed to be water GC85KFJ. I added my name to the log book at 7:58 am on 14 July 2019. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!
This cache find brings our total find count to 10822. Woohoo!!

Thanks
Must not push my luck. Hometime. Thanks for another fun afternoon in Ellenbrook parkacruz
Found this on the floor under the leaf litter. Have replaced in obvious spot. TFTC
A quick find here.

Plans were made a few days ago with Barnzy12 and WebblyWA to come back up to Ellenbrook to try and clear up the massive amount of green dots that appeared after the CO,S event. We were hoping to grab all of them but the weather was terrible and we got soaked after finding the first one lol....The rain kept the muggles away but it didn't help us find some of the caches so I think we ended up with 70 finds and about 10 DNFS. Clearly a lot of hard work went into placing all the caches and I would love to say they were easy finds but that definitely wasn't the case with some of them and im very glad we bought a certain TOTT with us...Mr OOH YEH managed to work out Annies Landing a few days prior and I must admit that was a very creative cache well worth a fav point. Even though we got drenched we still had a fun morning of caching and we will be back in the near future to find the rest of them. TFTC parkacruz
A couple of days ago plans were hatched with ooh yeh and webblywa to spend the day caching around Ellenbrook to pickup all of the new Parkacruz caches that were published at their recent explosion of play event.
We knew we were in for a tough days caching after our FTF hunting efforts were thwarted with a large number of dnfs. It was much easier to find these caches during the daylight hours and after consulting a number of the attributes, precious finders and even the CO we armed ourself with enough info.
In preparation for the day mister ooh yeh had solved the Annie’s landing puzzle and the find there was one of the highlights of the day. The best cache of the day was the Phillips Library which is one of the best made containers I have found in all of my years of caching.
The weather was great for some of the urban hides as the rain managed to keep muggles away and allowed us to cache in peace. Although by the end of the day we were absolutely drowned out.
We ended up with nearly 70 finds for the day, and nearly 10 dnfs which is quite good considering how well placed a number of the containers are. Thanks Parkacruz for a great day out.

Deciding a direction of attack, this was our next one… Took longer getting the logbook out than it did to make the find

I'd only just got home , let out the old dog and made myself a cuppa when the phone went BING_ BING_ BING_BING_. I didn't think it was going to stop. Looked at my phone grabbed the car keys and locked the door. I managed a few ftfs and had an enjoyable afternoon caching. tftc
