Found the small throw away. Definitely needs maintenance. Great spot though. TFTC
Another one that is often muggled, so it's time to archive and free up the location for others to hide a cache near here.
Found what looked to be a throw down replacement to be honest - but read back through logs and seems that everyone else has logged as a find so I will too I'm going to put a NM on this though
An old herb pot with a broken lid, and an old leaflet seems to be in place of a real cache, this need to be replaced with a proper container and log.
Found a small plastic container with log paper. Magnetic container gone. No tracker in sight. There were instructions but to faded to read.
This is a great little area. There's still so much work being carried out. I can't wait until it's finished to see how it will all turn out. Thanks for bringing me here.
TFTC!!!

TFTC. Not in container as discribed and just looks like a piece of rubbish. Cache needs fixing and new log.
Yeah... Look I found the container that geocachers have been writing their names in but damn sure this isn't the cache, it's rubbish. It doesn't match the description or the log, and there's no official log, just a piece of paper that a few have written on...
Suspected this cache has been mugged, found a small plastic container with notes in it neer cache location but the container did not match the cache description
Found it but needs updating small plastic container with notes only - no treasure
Found what looks to be a replacement "throw down". Was broken, open and exposed. Originally ignored as thought it possibly couldn't be the cache. Would be worth a health check here.
Thanks for bringing me to this special location

Suggest CO comes to check this out. Looks to be a "throw down" container that was in fact broken and log damaged. Pieces around. Definitely not in line with hint. Thanks
Easy find, have three newbies with us so they were disappointed the log was wet. Container is cracked, needs replacing. TFTC
Found it! Yes container has changed, and there is a crack in this container. May need to replace log also

Out and about for a picnic in Brimbank Park and picked up this cache on our way home.

Looks like something might have happened to the original container. Worth the owner having a look.
Found with Genyo while doing the nearby earth cache. The cache we found wasn't what the hint suggested. It looks like the cache disappeared and someone has placed a new 'container'.
Tftc!

Cache looks like it has gone missing and someone has thrown another container around.
We are regretting looking at the hint, which was a bit of a giveaway! Great hide!! And great spot too. We took a penny, left a party animal. No sign of the trackable. We were visited by some friendly ducks hoping for a feed. Geo kids loved the echoes... And recreated the jeep commercial! I imagine lovely in summer, but grey with a cold wind today, so we'll quickly move on the next one.
Went for a walk for mothers day around this new estate and to take a look at the lake. After a little bit of searching cache was soon in hand. We too noticed the apparent artwork, adults had to sign this log .......... suggest the log be renewed.
I think this has been found by some immature muggles that have decorated the log page with some decorative male appendage drawings!... still managed to find a spot to log it! It was sitting up quite high, so I've hidden it a little better! TFTC
765th Cache Find Geodad is at work for the day so what else can we do today. Geocaching of course. So we all get ready & head out. We aren't staying too far from here. No TB's here today. Quick & easy find. What a lovely area this is, so beautiful & peaceful. Beautiful looking lake. TFTC
Beaut spot not been to prior and a top location for a cache.
Many thanks to pwags.
Many thanks to pwags.
It took me 2 passes , but a simple hide and a bit exposed, his it slightly better. This looks like another unfinished part of the estate, the lake is an univiting green, thanks for the cache
The kids, the dog and I enjoyed a stroll and a bit of treasure hunting along the way. Tftc.
My lady is visiting from Indonesia and this is her second find! Very hot today! TFTC
I came here to avoid the heat. There seems to be a good amount of cloud cover here and a breeze that's not exactly cool but a damn sight cooler than in part of suburbia. A quick find in a deserted area. Tftc
Found during a stopover in Melbourne for 10 hours on the way back from Bali with Just-Lookin.
Soon located

Found this one today. Once I realised what level this one was and followed the "firetack boardwalk" - this one was an easy find. I approached this cache as it was really getting dark and found that there were solar fibre optic lights throughout the slade and/or basalt used to make the walls alongside the boardwalk hence I called this the "firetack boardwalk". It was an amazing place to be as it got dark. I walked along to a chorus of toads bonking away though the mossies did get me as well! Signed log and returned cache to its hide.
Thanks for the cache pwags.
Thanks for the cache pwags.
Because it was earth caching day we decided to go the nearest earth cache. What an interesting area! Im not fan of new suburbs but i did like the creative site of it. They so should make a lil cafe of that building close to the water! Even if it was a pretty warm day...the wind was cold up there. Cache was an easy find..but like others have mentioned...not an 1.2 liter container. Took out ...leaves?....left a yoyo. Thanks for the cache!
Find 1275 at 19:29. I was out caching with Burge today and we were out to pick up some new caches all over Melbourne. All in all, I collected 17 on this run and this was find number 12.
The lake here is quite pleasant and it's good to see the old quarry put to good use. Thanks for the cache, pwags!
