Nice cache in beautiful surroundings. A bit of bushland so close to the tollway. TFTC
Needed some fresh air after work. Decided to go for a walk and find this one. Difficulty increased due to oncoming night. But wasn't too tricky to locate. Tftc
Another new LGA after doing Mullum Mullum parkrun.Adelaide to South Gippsland and anywhere in between for the Christmas holiday. Hope to pick up a few more LGAs along the way too.team_coxy, I found Bushland Hideout today. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.* * * * * * *SAs Leap Year Event - GCA1DNA - keep the date free - 29th February 2024. Keep looking up!
Once again geocaching has revealed another great park to me that I’d potentially otherwise never found!
Cache was located fairly quickly with the original log still within, it’s always great to look through over a decades worth of past logs.
Happy to report that the cache is in good condition and the logbook nice and dry.

A nice walk and a quick find. I never knew there were plans for another freeway out here.

Thanks team_coxy. I love finding these little green patches everywhere. Thanks for dragging us out to this one. Giddy up
A great little stroll through a reserve I'd never have known existed if not for Geocaching.
Thanks heaps !
Thanks heaps !
Another reserve I hadn't explored...this long weekend I'm back in my old hometown and finding caches in the area. I used to come to the drive in that was situated in front of this bushland.
What a lovely track. Close to home but did mot know it existed. Will be back for a walk here. TFTC
I had a delivery so close to this one I had to stop by to pick it up. Didn't have a pen on me so I couldn't sign the log but took a photo to prove I was there.
Cache in great condition well protected. Thanks for bringing me to this lovely little part of the world make sure you've had the horses when you're in this little park.

What a dense little piece of bushland! Nice little cache spot here. Took a pink mini figure of something and left a ball and a tiny bottle of water.
Had a few minutes in the area between jobs to grab a couple of caches.
This was a pleasant walk in a previously unvisited area of bushland.
A good hide, found with the help of the hint as the GPS was a little jumpy today.

Haha - this one spotted by Greg for a change! Cache in good condition and absolutely loved the park/bush area that this led us too! We'll be back for walks here for sure! TFTC
Really great little reserve/park which I have never been to. Would be great for trail running. Thank you for the fun little cache here - would give a favourite if I could.
Great to walk here after dinner with funkyrave and fatfungi. Great cache. Left Origami cranes.
Didn’t exactly plan my route... Of course I walked through the bush before discovering the path! surroundings wet but cache pretty dry ️
Second find of the day. The ground was a bit wet and one of the trails had a big puddle to go around. TFTC
A second find and the find streak extended to 85 days today. Anticipating a complete corona lock-down on day 99! Another cache I had eyed off finding for years. Signed log and washed hands either side of this mini cache run tftc
Day 2 of walking about in this area, discovering this delightful patch of Melbourne.
The trails view on the Geocaching map helped me find the easiest route here. I then made an easy find of the goodly hidden cache. This cache can consider itself very lucky to have escaped the fire on the other side of the path! Not that the cache can consider itself anything, being an inanimate object (I know many geocachers don't like to think of their prizes as inanimate, but it is a difficult truth that we must acknowledge), but you get the idea... Anyway, I found it and it wasn't melted - yay! TFTC

I was out this way picking up a gumtree purchase. After finding another nearby cache, I decided there was enough time to make the short trek up to this one.
I reached a part of the track that required me to bush bash a little to get to GZ. As I walked in only 2 metres from the track, I found myself walking into the web of the 8 legged kind. Dropping everything in hand and screaming!!! I noticed my bag was a little open and feared the worst, that the creature would crawl inside. Quickly grabbing my bag and making a hasty exit back onto the track where I inspected both outside and inside, emptying the contents too. Luckily the creature was gone. Hesitant to keep going, somehow I decided to face my fears and picked up a long stick to wave in front of me as I made the way in.
When I got to GZ I couldn't believe it. There was a nice clear track right beside it. Doh! The cache was located quickly. It and the log were in good condition. I then walked back to my car along the nice clear open track, clear of any 8 legged creatures blocking my path.
Thank you for the cache here team_coxy

Well....with all this virus talk...I’m thinking our beloved hobby of geocaching is one of the safest weekend pastimes to partake in....avoiding people (muggles) while traipsing the bushland and hiking is the main aim of the game.
So doing my bit in minimising the spread.
Just have a bit of hand sanitiser for handling the caches .
Thanks for this great hide today Team-coxy...it’s just what the doctor ordered!

A nice quick find as it was exposed in the open... gave it a bit of cover. Thanks.
A lovely walk on a thankfully cool day. I didn't know about this gorgeous little patch of bushland! The cache was a bit uncovered when I found it, so have added some artistic camouflage. TFTC!
2 Dec 2019: Streak Day #277/366 (1 March 2019 - 29 February 2020). Thank team_coxy for the cache. A quick find here.
JSando and carkisser out and about with Jaktembo nearby. This was too close to pass up. TFTC
Found the other day but forgot to log! Navigation was pointing to the wrong end of the log so took me a bit but got there in the end
Had a little walk through this bushland after Completing some jobs down in lilydale. Cache was a quick and easy find. Without and issues. Logbook all looked to be okay. Thanks for the cache!
Out on a gloomy Saturday afternoon, trying to get some caches in before the rain sets in for the night. This one was found quite quickly, a neat hide! Tftc team_coxy
Found it ! Fathers Day 2019... Exactly where it was meant to be! Good cache!
Searched for along time. Could not find this one even after reading the comments from all those who have
