Logs
I cannot see any information that suggests to me that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement - one or more of the following applies:
- Cache Owner unable to maintain cache
- No response from the cache owner.
- No cache to find or log to sign.
- It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.
- Cache has been abandoned by cache owner/cache in disrepair
As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to also prevent it from blocking other cache placements.
If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the next 28 days, just contact a reviewer (by email and include GC number in cache name) and, assuming it still meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.
If there are components or remnants of the cache and you haven't already done so, please return to the GZ and collect the cache (or remnants). We don't want to litter our environment with Geotrash.

I was in the area so I decided to grab a couple of caches during my lunchtime. No luck today.
Was bounced around but sure we were in the right spot and couldn't find cache.
Couldnt find cache hasnt been found for a while looked high and low with 3 other people to
We attended the Aurora School family picnic with this cache only a few streets away. We left to find this one. Taking our picnic with us, we set up near the play equipment for the kids. Taking a walk, the well cammoed treasure was found, logged and replaced. Job done, time to head home. Log book very tattered. Not much room left.
Nice camo. There was a parent with a couple of kids at the playground, but it was far enough away for them to know what I was up to. TFTC Datruk.
Our first ever Geocache adventure! Great fun. A well disguised cache. Someone else had been here just yesterday. Thanks Geocache!
Great camo! Took us a while to find but we didn't give up and it paid off! Couldn't sign log book as it's not in s good state. TFTC
This is our first time to try. It took a while to find and the kids were getting frustrated and were ready to give up. Good thing we found it or we'd have given up geocaching forever.
Logbook was not looking so good. Might need to change or put a new one in.

Great Camo, had my Muggle Mother with me and she was staring straight at it but not able to see it!! TFTC!
A quick grab in the dark. Great camo, but log is showing its age! It's still just signable. TFTC.
Last basketball games for the year, so both matches played, and time for a cache. Been weeks since we've had a moment to do this. Of course, geodaughter headed straight for the playground, whilst geoson and I went looking. Easy find, thanks from some other Scouts. Log is a bit shredded, could do with a new sheet. TFTC.
My first geocache 
took me some time because I didn't really know what to look for but got it in the end
took me some time because I didn't really know what to look for but got it in the endFound with Winniethebear. Time to kill between movie and dinner. Was a nice park which had some dogs running around. TFTC.
Nice little park ground with no one around. Coords were spot on and took me straight to GZ. Love the camo job of the cache, worth finding just to see it. TFTC.
Found this one with nanton34 on a night cache run to my 500th find. nice camo on this one, tftc
Having been too busy talking we wandered straight past GZ and had to backtrack. Once there eighthknox spotted the well camoed hide TFTC
Last day of my work trip to Melbourne and time was limited as I had to visit all over the place, this was the last port of call for the day rather than the first which was unluckily as stage 1 was Caroline Springs much closer to the airport. Had come here via Rowville from there. After the job I called in here to make a quick find as I wanted to try and get at least one cache at each of the places scattered around Melbourne today as they are suburbs I am not likely to ever have a reason to visit again.
Once at GZ a quick find despite the good camo, having seen similar ones before. Then it was off to battle the traffic to Tullamarine (never good in the afternoons, let alone Friday ones). Thanks Datruk.

Stopped by to pick this one up inbetween the two night time caches we had planned to get. It was a quick find, spotted by megwilson.TFTC!
GREAT CAMO! Found it after 5 mins. Kids loved this one. Running out of room for spots to sign though.
I was out this side of town for work today.
Must find a cache I thought.
Soon I was scrounging round for the nearest find.
This was the one.
I parked in a side street and was on my way.
Nice cammo and a quick find.

Was in the neighborhood and took a slight detour to find this. Cache container is in good condition, well cammo & great hide. Unfortunately the log has seen better days and probably does need some attention.
TFTC!
TFTC!
Found this with ryanofoz. What a great camo, very creative! We both enjoyed the find! TFTC!
I was walking around obvious hiding places and still could not find anything. And then at last! So obvious Thx
ThxThis one took a bit of finding as the GPSr was having trouble zeroing in today. Eventually I got in the right place to spot the well camoed cache at 3:45pm.
thanks Datruk for the cache and the Scouting history lesson.

A nice quick find today as there was nobody about to disturb us, a nice bit of camo work too, thanks Datruk for the cache and the bit of scouting history.
Tricky to find, however the biggest surprise was the huge Huntsman spider guarding it >.>
Took a couple of minute to find the correct tree then I saw the well cammo'd cache. TFTC
Was just going to give up... Too many muggles and there it was! Thanks for the great hide w/o mmg
2nd cache for the day. Rode our bikes with my mate tosh. Cool cache, nice camo. Lots of mugglers
Dom and Lachie couldn't find this geocache anywhere. We looked all over the trees and couldn't find it. We where really disappointed.
Stopped here after work, but a group of muggles were having a dog-walking-chat within meters of GZ, so I couldn't do anything more than have a quick walk-around-look because the muggles had no intention of leaving anytime soon.
Scratch previous comment. It was for the wrong cache. Couldn't find this one 
looked high and low. Climbed the tree but to no avail. Could desperately use a hint

I was out with a couple of friends who wanted to start caching. Having found their first one, they were hooked, so we walked a bit further to find this one. Great hiding spot! TFTC, Datruk
This was pretty tricky. It was well hidden. There were three of us, and we spent some time looking in the wrong tree. But I suspected that I was looking at the right tree. And there it was, very well camouflaged!
On going log:
Great little cache. Took a second to find looked in the hiding spot once and didn't see it then had another look and there you go!

Thanks for the cache the 1 of 22 today. Bring me up to 251 my aim being 250. Thanks to all the cache owners for the great caches and good luck to other Geocachers. Thanks again PIPPAESP

Nice little park with two muggles and a dog. The dog saw me but the muggles didn't. TFTC and the bit of history.
Dropped by this cache on the way to a dinner. The co-ords were spot-on so after a minute or 2 search I located the cache and signed the log at 8:10pm. TNLN. Luckily I managed to return the cache to its hiding spot just before some muggle youths on bikes started circling GZ.
Thanks Datruk for another scouting cache and history lesson. Great camo on the container and a lovely location. [^]

If the scouts are responsible for this one they have done very well. Great coordinates, great description and great hide in this pleasant little park. Well done from the bananas.
Found by The Empire @ 2:40pm
Is this it? Have I found them all? I must have! Thanks for the cache Datruk.

Found this while out night caching with Crouching Cranes & Mcgeachie Family. A great hide. Took the Pathtag, unfortunately did not have anything small enough to fit as swap.
