I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, Waterwells, 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 Required please.###
This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an Owner Maintenance visit, to address the issue described in the logs.
The cache owner, Waterwells, needs to :
* Return the cache to good health by fixing the problem, re-enabling the cache, and posting an Owner Maintenance log if a Needs Maintenance attribute needs to be cleared. Otherwise :
* Post a Note Log to explain the situation and request more time. Do not use an Owner Maintenance log for this, that is for use when you actually 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 Waterwells.
[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 be sure that the maintenance has been done, or that further information has been provided. If there has been no action to repair the cache or explain the situation, unfortunately, I will need to Archive this cache. *Caches archived because of lack of maintenance 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.
Thank you

Was going to have a look for this cache but stopped at the sign that wanted $40 to go in and get it.... Bugger that
Nice easy find with LittleBoo17. Container is very damaged and has been wet. Notebook was a little mouldy. I was in thongs, got there ok but shoes would have been better. TFTC
Found it but the lid is broken and everything’s wet and nasty. Sorry but I didn’t have anything to replace with.
Nothing like finding a good walking track late in the arvo, so add in some jogging and a quick GC on the way to make it more fun. As per others, needs major maintenance.
Bit of a scramble, but good view of the ocean. With the lid broken couldn’t tell if the spider in the box was real or not so decided not poke it
Thanks
Thanks
Easily found it!
However the cache needs fixing. There is a giant hole in the lid and the log seems to have gotten wet a while ago

On a motorhome trip round Tassie, caching today with scotjohnos. A lovely day and some lovely scenery along the way. TFTC
Been visiting greens beach for a long time but thanks to you and this cache we found a nice new relaxing place for a picnic ️
On a windy but beautiful day, I could find this one after a short search. T4T$!
A quick find and great views. The cache didn't have the lid on and was out in the open but thankfully all the contents were dry. We replaced it properly and covered it well. TFTC Waterwells

Tassie Trip Day 218 - Today we went for the sea horse and Platypus experience and collected a few caches along the way it was a great day to see those wonderful sights and interesting information.
After a bumpy ride to the location along the road toward GZ it was a nice quick find with the help of the clue the GZ was soon found and the log signed and returned to its hiding place.
Thanks Waterwells for placing and keeping it in such good condition for us to find on our tassie trip.

A bit hard to get to but once we were there an easy find. TFTC.

A great day out caching with gridge98, sorry I forgot to log these caches so logging them a month later.
We travelled up the west tamar up till greens beach and then came inland through the bush to some interesting places that we had never been to before.
Thanks to all the CO for their placements and apologies for the late logs.

Great to find an old cache, still in good nic
Today I organised to go caching with JLROCKSTAR up to Liffey falls but slide to the thickness of smoke over the hills from the fires, we thought we would head north to Beaconsfield instead. A nice area and some good caches were found. All caches were signed as JLG98
I am currently writing detailed logs because of a challenge provided by Project-GC. "The Author" Badge challenges geocachers to average one hundred words or more in each log. Given that I have found so many GC caches, I have to write many logs with well over 100 words for a long period of time to get my average to the target. Apologies to anyone who finds the logs tedious but it is the only way that I can strive to attain this challenge. After over 5000 plus caches (which includes all cache finds up and including yesterday), the average log length is just over 70 words. I am now entertaining the possibility that I might be able to achieve my task before the end of next year. It's surprising how much is has increase since doing this.

Camped at Launceston, out along the Tamar today for a few caches. Quick find, good coordinates. Cache all good. TFTC
Approached this from the town along the coastal track with trusty geo-doodle along for the walk. What a lovely track. Reached nudists beach. Prepared myself, and made a dash across the sand without drawing too much attention from the gulls. A short time later and with two walk bys I had the box in hand. In good order but no pen. If the next cacher can leave one that’d be good.
Took us a few attempts at looking behind trees for this one. Located! Not many cache’s. No pen either.
Out enjoying the beautiful summer evening and making the most of daylight savings after work. Thought I’d cruise down to Greens beach for a drive.
Quickly found the cache.

Smiley found this one in the dark while the Bear was barking up the wrong tree. A lovely location. Tftc.
What a glorious area!
Not sure where the carpark referred to is, but found the start of the track at those co-ords, and followed the overgrown single track to the cache. Managed to clear lots of cobwebs with my face - always fun! Easy find - first mark in new logbook. Cache dry and in good condition.

Definitely needs maintenance and is dangerous in summer with snakes about but a good hide overall. Thanks
Log wet & soggy container broken needs to be replaced, put my own paper in to log, spongebob pointed us in the right direction
Walked down the skinny track and found this cache, cache was full of water everything is wet and the lid of the cache is broken, need some attention CO. TFTC
Miserable weather, but a great wander around the area with Jode n Nath 76 - lovely spot, really must do more of the tramp sometime
Many thanks Waterwells from the Wacky one
