[u]MAINTENANCE REQUIRED?[/u]
[navy]This cache would appear to be in need of owner intervention, therefore I am temporarily disabling it so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.
Geocache maintenance is a cache owner responsibility. Your prompt attention to any log that indicates things could be amiss will be greatly appreciated by all geocachers, see here http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance
The guidelines advise; if you can't fix it straight away then Disable it till you can . . . . . . . and here's how; http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 . . . . . . . . . . I have disabled it for you this time! [^]
Please respond to this situation by 2nd August to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.
If you require more time, please be sure to post a "Write Note" log (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.
For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to date, or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Had quite an extensive look for this one and even though there were only a couple of realistic places it could have been hidden , we searched further afield to about 20 metres, but couldn't find any trace of the cache at all [B)].
Could be wrong, but we think this one has gone .
Thanks anyway Pyrenees Kid and Mikita.

Time to pull this one I think as the last reliable log was 2011. The area has been burnt out so the cache may have been a victim.
Nope, not there. 2011 was the last logged find so I guess it may be time to bury the cache so people don't waste time trying to find it. Maintenance call, me thinks!
Couldn't find any sign of this cache we even spread out a bit, there was nothing
Think this one has to be checked on, no sign at all with lots of eyes and wide radius.
Checked the only hole within a 20 metre radius to find only loose soil and leaves. No sign of any broken container at all. Also checked all other possible hiding spots... Just in case!
Beautiful weather, 4WD packed, geodog for company on this caching trip. Well I found bits of a broken container in a hole, think the Wambat has reclaimed his hole and this cache needs maintenance. Thanks
had a go at this one with 7 sets of eyes and had no luck and noticed it at not been found since 2011
Found this one with Dylan 7a. Only after stumbling about and looking in all the 'wrong' places during a few minutes of geomadness! The cache is brilliantly hidden and nearly had us 'defeated' if not for the timely clue, but even then it's not the least obvious. We were very glad to find this one and glad of it being well hidden. Cache is in reasonable condition and has not been 'eaten' by the locals - they get a right ol' belly ache if they did! Thank you again to 'Pyrenees Kid' for the caching experience in a marvellous part of Victoria. TNLN.
Found this with my sister's crew, the ALMAC's. (I'm catching up on all my logs so I'm a bit late putting this one in!) Love the Pyrenees! TFTC
Round here, up there, down here, up up up, yep I'm turned around. Great views getting to this cache.

Find # 2267 and 10th of the day at 2:36pm. on our "Try out the new (very used) 4 wheeldrive" expedition around Avoca. Accompanied by Flyjabiru1, Highrod and Sandar10, we all had found a cache today except Sandar10, so we gave her the GPS'r and let her go in front and claim the find.

Found @ 13:05
Seventh of our Pyranees 4WD Cache Raid. A very wet, musty and rusty container, so we cleaned it up and put the contents in a separate bag.

Took us ages looking for this one, Just as Langy read the Hint back at the car Patrolman Pat took the honours. Why didn't we read the logs first, maybe it's the challenge we love.
TNLN I think I lost my cache notes for the last 4 finds
Thanks Pyrenees Kid

Found with Skippy and PatrolMan Pat. I know that an experienced cacher like me should have seen this one's hiding place without going for the clue but while walking back to the car to look at the PDA Pat found it.
By the way I am not sure it was worth the car trip from the last cache we did - it wasn't overly far...

For good or bad I was introduced to Geocaching by Skippy & Team Langy. This was the first one we found and the boys, Nick and Alex, are hooked.
Our seventh cache during our assault in the Pyrenees Hills with pprass, fullonphil & Vombatus. Our GPS's were not cooperating at this location so we decided to search the most likely locations. Once again it was PPrass who came up with the goods. Unfortunately the cache & contents were a little damp but the logbook was OK. We dried it as best as possible before leaving, found at 16.55

Thanks again Mikita and The Pyrenees Kid

Found at 4.55pm GAFF1. This was a tricky little hide as we were getting used to the usual hiding spots for these caches, but this was different. On removing the first layer of camo, there was nothing there. So I perservered and found it soon after. Thanks PK & M. Took: Lion, Left: Pair of dice.
Could not take a trick today. If the cache was in a treee I was looking under a log. If it was under a log I was looking in a tree. Great day though.

Found by Roma and Max.
After finding Emery Junction Max proceeded on to make this find, leaving Roma watching an Echidna going about its routine.
Took Super Glue and left a Mondo Figurine.
Thanks Pyrenees Kid & Mikita,
From Romax.

Tried not to disturb the wombat. Dried contents of cache as best we could. Took keyring and left hairclip. Thanks Mikita and the Pyrenees Kid.
Found at 1625 - #6 for today!
Great hiding spot - glad there wasn't anything else behind the cache!!!
Cache contents wet also in this one so we did a little maintenance - removed a saturated chewing gum pack and business card.
Left a glow stick and something else we think but forgot to write down...
Thanks to PK & Mikita

Took a while to track this one down GPS was very jumpy but eventually found it, it was hidden really well and initially we thought it hadn't been found in months, but turned out Alan-san got it yesterday. TNLN. Thanks PK & M.
Found at 4:30pm. I checked the exact same spot 3 times, as it looked kind of suspicious. Third time lucky I guess. It's really good up with a slight breeze now here and insects quietly chirping, how nice.
Swapped stick on notes for 2 x super glue.

Found by Maya and Bev at 5:15PM on the 19th of July. My notes on the cache find did not make reference to Ray or Greg, I guess we were there somewhere. It was getting very cold in the afternoon, perhaps we were sitting in the car? We made no exchange. Our collective thanks for placing all of the caches in the area.
We found so many caches today that we can't remember them all. Must write notes next time. Nothing exchanged. Greg and Bev
Found towards the tailend of a long succession of cachers ahead of me in the queue. Again, for time savings and expediency, no swap was made - had to get back in the car and try to catch up to those at the head of the queue.
Thanks to Pyrenees Kid and Mikita for the cache and the day.

Thankyou for another wonderful cache.
Thankyou for another wonderful cache.
went to this one twice as i clicked the wrong waypoint partway through the day, found a nice steep track to go down though to add to the excitement, no exchange thanks P K and Mikita
Found by embi, J and trex as part of team trex. Thanks to the organisers. We had a great day.
Cant remember what we swapped....too many caches. Reached 100 caches today.

Found 12:00, as the first spots of rain for the day started to fall. Took RCA Plug adapter and left CardZ Puzzle. Thanks Mikita & Pyrenees Kid.
Found in the award winning company of team trex (nutcache & embi) as part of a great weekend of four wheel driving and caching. No exchange made. Thanks Pyrenees kid & Mikita.
Found in the company of geofreak and embi during the 2003 4X4 winter caching event. No exchange made but fun was had by all. Thanks Pyrenees Kid & Mikita.
Another rush with teams to be the first to find this one! Mr Blobby struck first (again!) - but it's all in good fun.
Great work PK!
Great work PK!
Found by Mary & David with the 4x4 crowd at about 1200. Took punch set, left post-it notes. Thanks to PK.
