### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED PLEASE** ###

----------

G'day there caughtatwork,

It looks like this cache might need some attention, as one or more seekers have indicated there is an issue.

The cache has been temporarily disabled, so as to remove it from search listings and discourage people from visiting this location until the issues/s can be addressed.

**You do need to respond in some way within 14 days, so others know you are on top of it, as well as indicating exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication scuttle this listing.**

#What should you do now:-#
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-

- **Check On The Cache:-** Visit the cache and repair and/or replace or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked and [**ENABLE your cache**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ). Then sit back and wait for the logs of praise to roll in.

- **Place A Write Note Log::-** Reviewers are not mind readers (unfortunately), so without your note on the cache page explaining that the site works are on-going, you have been in hospital, the area is in flood, or some other reason that has prevented attending to the cache, they can't tell what is going on.
So please just post a note to the page (within 14 days) and when a Reviewer next looks at the listing, all will be fine for a little bit longer.
**Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. If you have a long term unavailable cache (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 4 to 6 weeks, so as to keep everyone up to speed.**

- **Adopt/Archive:-** If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**Archive it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56), so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when a Reviewer next looks at the cache page, it is likely that they will, unfortunately, have to de-list (Archive) on the basis that it has been abandoned.

Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

**JUST A TIP:-** Have you checked out the Geocaching Dash Board designed to assist a Cache Owner in managing the caches they own? Have a read about it [**HERE.**](https://www.geocaching.com/blog/2020/07/welcome-to-the-cache-owner-dashboard/?newsletter=PM) You will find your very own dash board [**HERE**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/owner?utm_source=geocaching&utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=COD).

Thanks for your cooperation,

Bunjil

Due to unforeseen circumstances Mr Smokey Bear will no longer be a part of Team Smokey Bear and will continue his adventures as "SmokeyBearOG".

So I'm relogging all previous finds under my new account.
Unfortunately this log will not show the original logging date.

**Thanks to caughtatwork for this adventure, looking forward to many more.**

This cache was spread all over the ground and I collected it all up and put it back in it however the container is very damaged, and the lid is sealed. It does need some help please. I put in under cover for now...

Out and about in the Alexandra area with my Chauffer today just cruising around.
Saw there was a cache at this look out so came and had a look for it.

It needs some help desperately, it was upside down with its contents everywhere and the lid is badly damaged. I picked up all its goodies and placed them back inside and at the moment it is inside the center out of the weather.

Thanks for this cache caughtatwork.

Water, water everywhere . . well not quite but there was an abnormal amount of water both in the swollen rivers and upon the saturated low lands which will take many, many months to recede.

We headed from home to Maroondah Reservoir to have a sticky beak at the water cascading over the spillway then tracked to Bonnie Doon to look at the water level there and then we decided to head to Eildon Weir as it's been quite some time since the gates have been opened feeding the spillway. Keen to mark our trip with the odd cache we decided this one would be our first for the day. Much to the annoyance of my mates missus, who is super competitive when it comes to finding a cache first, I found it with ease. So "hah, huh, har . . nar, nar-na-nar-nah, I beat you to it!"

18-Oct-22
On a road trip with our caching buddies to check out the "water levels" - Maroondah Dam and Spillway, Bonne Doon, Lake Eildon and Spillway, and Steavenson Falls - we saw lots of water at these familiar sights as well as plenty in between along the way. After visiting Lake Eildon and the Spillway where there was lots of water flowing over the dam wall, we then headed towards Marysville via Alexandra and stopped here to find our second cache for the day. As Mrs Biggles and Mrs Pooky leisurely strolled down towards GZ, it was Wetjala who walked straight to the cache and made the find. TFTC TNLN.

Nice easy find for Wetjala as usual, he found it quickly so a nice easy find.

Again I find myself re visiting caches that I logged under a team profile. But who is complaining. I am here on an awesome trip to the Cathedral Mountains with my beau dalerious. We were driving back from Buxton and decided to stop in and sign the log again. I don't mind visiting here again, just for the view.

We took another muggle out for a couple of caches and to grab some supplies in Alexandra.

This was Taras first ever Geocache. He decided to bet me a tequila shot that he would find it first... ooopps. Bad news for him! A quick find for me and lovely views - tequila shot for him!

Thanks caughtatwork for the cache.

Great to get a few days off before Christmas to just escape and chill. The email inbox will be over flowing no doubt….. oh well. Went out on a little adventure with Trailstevo to collect a number of cache that have eluded me and I never have time to stop when passing though. Left home at 6am and made our way to Yea for an early morning coffee, YEA!! Did some homework at the local fossil Earthcache and proceeded to make our way along the rail trail stopping for a number of short walks collecting smiley faces as we go. At one point I found myself accidently driving down the trail, but wasn’t brave enough to turn that into a major event for the day. We continued on to Yarck, and the down to Alexandra for an Egg and Bacon roll and the second coffee of the day. 10am now. WE had been collecting clues for a local multicache which has now made us do a detour and collected 5 unplanned cache on that route….oops. Then back to the plana and we made our way to the Maintongoon Bushland reserve for a bit of puffing and blowing up the hill. So many grass seeds! Friggen things! Will have to mow my boots tomorrow! Then one last stop at the look out across the lack and back home for 2pm. Was a great little adventure. Thanks to all the CO’s for the fun. Some great cache in this area, we thoroughly enjoyed it.

Many cache owners are already aware: As per Groundspeak guidelines, I am claiming find because physically found under TeamOzcat. I undertake this not for disinterested statistical purposes, but because of inability to revisit this cache, and/or because it's so damn confusing when viewing the local district geocache maps. I sincerely thank all CO's for time and effort in placement of their caches. Cheers Reg.

Nice and easy find for the day.

A quick stop on the way home from Alexandra. Young couple smooching at the back of their car in the car park didn’t stop me. I pulled over right next to GZ and carefully went to pick the cache up so not to step on a slithery friend. Signed log, TNLN. The views are great, but the land is starting to turn yellow from lush green again. TFTC

Camped in Molesworth, we attempted this after lunch in Alexandra hoping for a cache and a view. Well I found the cache, but the view was a bit hindered by trees. TFTC
 
21-Jan-18
Holidaying in the area, the plan was to get as many of the AX17 fish puzzles and gadget caches as possible.
After lunch, with the in-laws staying with us, I had to get away for some piece and quiet. Really need a better sign to show where this lookout is. Wonder how many visitors to the area only go to the pretty crappy one another 100 meters.
The cache was found pretty easily following the cachers trail, and I even managed to see the spider web in time.
Thanks for the cache Caught at Work

It was a last minute decision to attend the Alexandra Event so after work on Friday Rapidlywild and I headed down through a couple of storms and heaps of lightening which put on a great show.
We found a few caches around the place before heading back home on Monday.

Day 2 had arrived and it was back on the roads collecting more yellow smileys.
After collecting all the AX17 puzzles and stopping for some dinner we decided to head out again under the cover of fading light/darkness to collect some more.

Signed, replaced and on our way to the next.
