Logs
I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, KingCharlz9, requesting additional time.
An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.
Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

###Cache Maintenance Visit Required please.###
This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of 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 any 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 KingCharlz9 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 there, and 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

The cache had seemed to be stolen and wet so I have replaced it with a new log book and container.
-- IF YOU LOGGED DNF:
Try finding it again. Have a look around and you should find it.
Just hide it securely and where you found it.
Thanks,
KingCharlz.

Nice easy find. Someone has left the bag open so sadly the signing book is wet inside container. Thank you!
Stopped a let the dog out for a run. Found the cache in good order, thanks Kingcharlz.
I had noticed this one published a while ago. Last night I decided that was it, and I was going to turn this into a smiley face. A pleasant ride from Frenchman bay saw this be the first of 2 caches picked up in Orana/Mckail.
An interesting find here at GZ. Cache was in a rather open area, visible from the road.
Log book and container are in good shape.

Nice easy find on a quiet day in the park. Thank you KingCharlz9 for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.
We have removed the old log and replaced it with a new one! Before Finders: We are switching between 2 log books so If one is wet we can replace it. So if you find it again and you don't find your name its probably because we have switched it!

Our first day caching after two months of corona lockdown. So nice to have a bit of freedom again. We made a quick find if the cute container but the log book is sodden and requires owner attention.
Thank you! This was our first time hunting for these little boxes. It was so fun finding it.
Found with mandate7 we used gloves the container was full of water and log is now a little damp was hard to keep it dry
Nice easy find in a lovely park. Lawns getting mowed making it quite noisy this morning.
Just for Finders the Log was not Wet. We did replace it when I said we did so IDK about the last guy! Please do say if it is wet!
