Hi LandoRaf,The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention, or it may not but in the absence of the cache owner performing maintenance and/or disabling the cache to check it out, I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 4 weeks) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 4 weeks to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.Ngaambul - Matt
We knew the coordinates were off, and we found the drain/ path but not knowing how far up to look, and being so close to peoples houses made this very uncomfortable. Perhaps the coordinates could be updated to better reflect the location.
This one had us wandering a bit, but reading the description again with ilook4geo told us where we needed to be. Soon found it then and added two more names to the log. Thanks for another cache placement go to LandoRaf.
Found it. Took a bit but once SLElliot and I stopped and thought about the description again we found it. Placed my first ever travel bug in cache to hopefully head off to Scotland ! TFTC. Stunning view.
Took lots of searching in odd places under prickly plants, but we finally located the cache. Thanks for the hide.
Find #1786I think 3ferrets and I checked every prickly plant in this area But then we expanded search area and found it tucked away. Cool hide. Container in good condition. Log book dry. TFTCSL Thanks for placing LandoRaf
We were looking in the wrong place at first, then re-read the description, wandered up and back, and, hey, presto! TFTC
Great view we enjoyed sitting by the water while looking threw the container, took a little swap to put in another container and also added a sticker & signed the log tftf ️
Searched the obvious then read a few logs. Odd little hide here
Wandered into the drain and found the cache. Surprised it was dry inside the container.
Roughly 7m from the posted coords.

(9 of 12 today)
The Geowife is babysitting the Geograndson today, so I have the freedom to cache for the day - so long as I'm home by 7 or so.
Decided to target the caches around Toronto today - a few series and a number of unrelated but clustered caches means I can get some numbers - aah the Calendar Caching Gods will be happy today!
Highlight of the day was stumbling across brand new cachers on their first day. That day is almost 10 years ago for me now. Memories...
Got twelve, but my first series yielded 2 DNFs. Was it me or missing? Time will tell.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Arrived to find two suspicious looking people near GZ. Only took a few seconds before I knew what they were up to.
So I joined **mattyjgibb89** and **Ecko29** in the search. Quickly discovered this was their first day caching. Welcome guys.
We agreed where the coordinates were pointing but my extra set of eyes spotted nothing. Decided to check some found logs and saw more than one comment about accuracy, and another that suggested an area.
So checked what fit, but still nothing. Is it gone?
So I approached the area I thought fit the clues from the opposite direction and saw something suss.
Was relieved to call out "Found it" and we all converged to add our ink to the log. Got one of them to replace it as found and we said our goodbyes after I confirmed one they had not found was still there - but they didn't want a specific hint.
Hope to see you around again sometime guys. Happy caching.

helped out by another fellow cacher So many perfect little places on the western side of Lake Mac. Another find for Chockid7. TFTC
Been doing photography near here a few times, and didn’t notice the cache until now. Signed log.
Lovely spot TFTC
Memory tree is a nice way for families to remember at a hard time of year.

Find No: 8714. In the area with Justontime and shaneo58 for the HAVOC Christmas party, thanks for the cache LandoRaf!!
This one took a little bit longer to find, a few muggles around despite the windy conditions.

A great little find. Certainly had to look around wider than GZ to get the find. Log and cache in good condition. TFTC
Found It!
A nice spot that I never knew about. Found the cache after a bit of searching around, not where I expected it to be.

The Co-ords weren't too accurate but after reading all the logs then had a quick find. Thanks LandoRaf for the cache.
Found with Shaneo58l, while circom-navigating the lake Catching up on some caches that have been placed in the last few months. The GZ was closer to the table than to the cache itself, so took a while to find
Signed log and Cache replaced as found.
**Thanks For The Cache** LandoRaf.
This makes the 2nd cache of 9 for today making a grand total of 3612 at 9:09AM on this Thursday the 18th of August in the Year 2022

A quick find after what felt like an eternity for muggles to leave the picnic tables nearby. TNLN TFTC
Mr Minion and I needed to get out of the house today, So went for a drive and grabbed a few caches in the area. We checked the structure first before moving of to the little hidden area to make the find. Thanks for the cache tnln replaced as found sl
Great views and quiet area to chill. Quick find after a short search with the geokids.
Do i trust the coords, or the description, cause either way i am lost. I found it in the end though. TFTC.
We found this one easily and then had our lunch nearby. Thank you for bringing us to this great spot - TFTC!
We were up visiting Pop when we noticed that a few new cache had been published since our last visit so we went for a quick drive around the point.
The kids raced off from the carpark with the hint in mind but no clear coordinates when they saw some structures that looked promising. After Dad made a more leisurely journey the kids were soon directed to GZ where 3/4 walked past the hide before the final cacher looked in the correct direction and found the camouflage.
After signing the log we stayed around for a bit of a splash in the water and some good old fashioned stone skipping.
Thanks for the cache!

This is our local boat ramp so we are here often.
Didn't even know the path (drain) was there. Took a bit of searching.

Heavy rain was coming across the bay so a quick search was needed. Luckily I soon came across a likely place after following directions and took the cache to log in the car, with no-one else silly enough to be out in this weather. Thanks for a good dry hide in a great location. I enjoyed finding all your caches today.

We saw these publish last night, and figured we'd have a crack at some FTFs, but noted they had gone by the time we were ready.... we came anyway for a fun couple of hours, nabbing a pair of others in the area at the same time.
We scoured the 'likely' structure close by before reading the hint and then the description.... Ohhh - over there! Is it a path or a creek/drain??? Anyway, the cache was found in great shape - TFTC!

Found today on a cache drive with my Dad and little brother, found 6 caches in total and had an amazing time caching around the Toronto area...
