I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, holdenpower, 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 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 holdenpower 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

This is such a wonderful area and today was no exception. A quick find at a deserted GZ

With this week being the last week of a month’s annual leave, I was keen to get out and about for a couple of mornings to continue advancing the find count.

Headed out before 9 this morning, staying pretty local, clearing out some of the new hides placed for WAGB and others around them.

holdenpower SVKR_WA is happy to have found your cache Leschenault Estuary H6182 today at 10:24:11 28 Jun 2022. This brings my find count to 5485

holdenpower - Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment. I love travelling and visiting some places that I would only visit due to this game.

Down in Bunbury for WAGB running up the numbers with AlliedOz & Kyzabra. Today's plan was to knock off 30 odd labs and grab whatever else took our fancy.

Ran into neva2old and geotrakka coming the other way here so we made it a joint effort with one of the girls laying hands on the container first.

holdenpower I found your cache at 2:06pm, this was the 38th of 45 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 7427. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

How could I resist the call of "WAGB 22"

This will be 9/9 attended WA Goes BIG events for me and my daughter. How things have changed, she now drives herself to the event to get a little freedom from the foolishness now and then.

So many fond memories from all these BIG events, well done to the volunteers who put in so.much effort to make these things happen, so we can all enjoy a superb caching event.


Looking forward to what this year brings in Bunbury and the surrounding areas.


______________________

Day two of WAGB22 today's plan... Caching! Some labs and a few select caches this being one of them.

Out for the day to grab as many as we can, on board are Granett and Kyzabra doing our best before the big event tonight



Out on a quick grab of a few caches with Granett and Kyzabra before the event tonight

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache holdenpower you help make the game what it is today, cheers

Day 5 of WAGB22 week, monster day driving down to Boyanup for FTF, then cleaned up the last of caches in Donnybrook before heading to outer Bunbury, Eaton and Australind.
The highlight was the 16km ride down the peninsula before the Welcome to Bunbury event.

Why stop there, out to Dalyellup and inner City Bunbury. Today totalled 95 finds, 9 FTF and 5 DNF’s.
Thanks to all the cache owners and sorry about the generic text.

Down in Bunbury on an overnight raid for FTFs and new caches. Thanks to all the COs for their work in placing new caches for WAGB… now I’ve just got to clean all the old stuff up!

Cheers holdenpower! Big Grin

I’ve been planning a Bunbury run for some time to cleanup all of the new green dots that keep appearing on the map.

With yesterdays plan thrown out the window I made arrangements with a group to get down here and cleanup. The icing on the cake came in the way of a bunch of FTFs appearing late last night.

A very unsociable start time was agreed and we made good on the caches, had a couple of DNFs, which means we will have something to find on the next trip.

Thanks to the COs for a great day out.

I was already planning on heading down bunbury way today when B12 rang me last night to say him, C10, Lachlan and Legs5 were also heading down and to meet up in bunbury. The bad part was we had to leave at 3.30am as there was FTFS up for grabs....
Grabbed a coffee on the way down and met up and then we cleaned up all the caches that had recently been published, managed to get quite a few FTFS, unfortunately we had a couple of DNFS then we parted ways and i grabbed some caches the others had already found. It was worth the early start for the amount of caches that were found. A big thanks to all the CO,S for placing all the caches for everyone to find
