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

A few days ago I searched for, and failed to find this cache. After seeing a find log, I wondered if the cache had been replaced. So I came again this morning to have a look. Nothing. I widened my search from last time and still nothing. I suspect the previous log is incorrect.
Thankyou for planting this geocache, it was very fun and exciting. Great way to get out of the house
Today I had planned to go farther afield but was out of time, so I chose closer to home. I’d went for another but muggles were sat next to the GZ. So I same here - I had planned on doing just that anyway.
At GZ there were few people about but not really paying attention. I looked in a couple of places and failed to spot the cache.
I withdrew to a seat to consider the way forward. I looked at the photo and realised the cache was much bigger than I had envisaged. A cache that bit I’d have spotted almost immediately. So I assumed the cache has gone missing.

Out on a mission with Geodog R as I had cabin fever. Nice walk to cache. Interesting comments in log, obviously found by lots of muggles. Glad to still make a find Tftc
In Bunbury and Collie for WAGB2022! A massive weekend of caching and catching up with friends. A big thank you to all the COs that have placed caches for this weekend, as well as COs maintained by existing listings. You have made this weekend what it is! Apologies for the generic logs. Cheers The Explorer! 
Farewell day to Bunbury, found a few early in the morning and on the way out of the Breakfast Goodbye.
Been a massive weekend, but still quite a few caches still to get. Back soon.
Thanks for the hide. Sorry, a generic log for the days cache.

TFTC!Pretty quick find here. Had an old boy keeping an eye on me.
Had a little solo time today. Headed out to an area that is becoming my new local to clear up a few finds.

It was pretty easy to find, it was the first time I had done this with my daughter, she loves it.
A quick easy find in a logical spot. Went to look at the nearby osprey nest.
