Hi solomonfamily,

This cache has been listed as possibly needing owner intervention. You may recall having received an automated email from Geocaching HQ recently which explained what you needed to do.

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

Whilst it is recognized that as a result of the current COVID19 situation, it might not be possible for a Cache Owner to just pop out and check on a cache, we still need to know that you are on top of the issue.

CO's of caches disabled during the current COVID19 crisis will be given some extra time to react. Caches where the cache owner does not currently feel it is safe to maintain will not be archived in the normal time frame, **as long as there is some indication from the CO. Don't let a lack of communication kill this cache.**

#What should you do:-#
- Should the Regional Health and State Government requirements allow it **AND** you feel it safe for you to maintain this cache now, please feel free to do so.

- **Alternatively,** what you need to do is place a Write Note log indicating a date when you expect/hope you might be able to attend to the issue/s.

#Please Note#
When the cache is next checked by a Reviewer, if the issue has not been addressed, **or there is no acknowledgment from the CO as requested above,** it will be assumed the cache has been abandoned and processed accordingly.

What a relief to head out for a few caches and not need to worry about the 5km zone any longer. I spent a pleasant Sunday morning in Ruffey Lake Park and nearby surrounds to find a bunch of caches here that I hadn't tried before. After three finds to the west I moved the car around to a more convenient spot though with muggles in the park the car spaces were at a premium. I walked down the hill to this one and after a short diversion off the path I was able to make the find here. I discovered the trackable that was in here but left it in this good sized cache so another cacher can move it along. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some other trackables. Thanks for the cache solomonfamily.

I know we are not geocaching at the moment but I have a 4-hour break from work very close by and this ISO is starting to drag me down. It is hard hiding from the world for 4 hours a day most days. I thought I would go for a walk and grab one cache to cheers me up. It worked, it is great to get some fresh air even though I am here on my own. Thanks for placing. It has made my day:-)

Out to look for some geocaches in this area. It didn't take us too long to find this one. Nice big hide. TFTC. We left a trackable and a bouncy ball.

Ah yes, the elusive leap day... something that I sadly missed the last time it was around, and have been kicking myself over it for a long time now. nevertheless, today was the day to rectify this mistake and smash out some finds to try and prepare me for any of those pesky challenge caches.
Tagging along with BecknMontz, Ahomburg, and SedgwickDave, we had a successful day with many finds along the way. Thanks for the cache and for being part of a great day.

After attending a nearby CITO, we decided to take a walk in this beautiful park and grab a couple of caches. A fair few people enjoying the sunshine today and lots of happy dogs too. Spotted the cache on our approach, signed the log, then added a bit more camouflage. Strange note left in the container for a request for food to be left, from a supposedly homeless 13 year old. I really hope this is a prank.

Thank you solomonfamily.

Today, I achieved two goals at once, when I found a cache in Australia (since I came here from the Czech Republic on holiday) and also on February 29. From the way I came, I could see the cache pretty early, so it was an easy find. The weather was hot, the park is beautiful. Thanks for the cache!
 
29-Feb-20
After the nearby CITO and event, I took a walk around the park to try and grab a few caches in a previously unexplored area.
There were a small group of people enjoying a picnic not too far away, but I was able to search unseen, obscured by the trees.
Once the GPS had settled, the cache was found in the obvious spot not too long after.
A serene little pocket of the park here, great to see that this cache has lasted!
Thanks for placing this one here!

TFTC, Brainiac03 Smile

Having just moved to Melbourne from Canberra, geocaches are proving an ideal guide to finding my way around my new surrounds.

An easy find after watching a black lab enjoying itself at the old ford (a sensible thing on a day like this). TFTC Smile
 
27-Nov-19
Thank you! Great spot

Disappointed to find our cache out in the open with the lid off. Replaced into a safe spot. Stay safe.

Out on this very pleasant afternoon caching with the geokid and the geodog. As it is the Melbourne Cup holiday there were heaps of muggles about but luckily for us they weren't interested in what we were doing. What a great sized container filled with lots of swaps. This is a good one for the kids to find. TFTC Team Yarra

Another find by the mini cachers
