Second visit, still couldn't find it. Based on other recent posts, perhaps it has been removed?
Searched for 20mins and came back later when muggles weren't around.
Pretty sure it's been permanent borrowed.
Happy to search again if the owned emails me back.

After a very quiet Easter at home I decided to get out and find a few caches. Managed to retrieve the cache on tiptoes. TFTC.
Arrived on a Saturday morning and the place was full of muggles either watching or playing AFL. This worked well for me as nobody was interested in me hanging around in the car park.
After reading the description, hint and previous logs, had a fair idea of possible hiding places. After a minute or so of considering potential hiding spots, zeroed in between muggles and bingo. Had to really reach to get it.
SL & replaced. TFTC!

Out with quiet1_au this morning. Coords were a few metres off, but we found the cache anyway. TFTC
After a short walk to GZ - which initially seemed to be in the middle of the tarmac - lochb & I headed for the nearest likely hiding place and searched for a few minutes without luck. Checking another suspicious looking object also proved fruitless, so the search area was increased and another possible hide was spotted. This time, a cache peered out so (being tall) a quick grab was all that was required for me to get the cache
I'm logging this, but for a change I wasn't there. Geomum and geoson were at a basketball game nearby and this was really close. Geomum reports that 'it was a pain', probably because she had to lift geoson up to reach it. Which is all part of the game I would think. Anyway, another win for Team AusFox. TFTC.
(Geodaughter and I were at her basketball game in Princes Hill, and we got TWO caches afterwards).

Quickly ducked out from Eltham tourny my son was playing in to find this cache. This is so addictive.
Thanks! I don't think this would have been possible on my own!! Thanks to my mate for the help!!
On the way to another cache that I had a DNF on , I stopped to grab this park n go! I have visited the courts here many times over the past 10 years with son playing basketball here on Saturdays and Fridays. Thanks for putting a cache here.
tftc. a eclipse container should be listed as small not a micro. micro is more like a very small bison tube. sl
There was a cricket match in progress which I stopped to watch for a minute. It gave me an opportunity to survey the area for likely hiding spots. Spotting the cache I was able to quickly grab it and sign the log. I took the Travel Bug contained within it to continue on its journey. Thanks for the cache.
Oops, forgot to log this one. Found it in the holidays with a couple of new geokids. Found pretty quickly, lucky
we had a grown up to help retrieve it. Thanks!!

Grabbed this one on the way to work loving theses 10am starts, quick find at GZ no muggles to worry about this morning, TFTC Scout Rikki
[red]We stopped by here once before and it was muggle central with some event happening just inside the door.
Dropped past this afternoon expecting it to be busy but apart from one muggle walking laps of the oval it was fairly quiet.
As I pulled up I tried the old "if I were to hide a cache here, where would I place it...?"
Parked right at GZ and looked around before I got out, grabbed my magnetic retrieval tool and had the cache in hand in seconds.
Found at 15:35. Took nothing, left a new (smaller) ziplock bag. Signed the log, lots of room left on it.
I suggest you remove the need maintenance by adding some owner maintenance logs.
Thanks for the cache Scout_Rikki, we love a well placed micro. High Five.[/red]

Was in the area with my dad and had time to kill. Nice quick easy cache. Not too many muggles to worry about. Tftc
Found with Jimmytherat. My 450 cache!
Apart from a little bit of a height challenge & Dad & his Boys kicking the footy on the oval no problem with this one. TFTC

Dnf on the first visit, 2nd too many muggles and a suspect bystander who actually ended up logging the find that day. Then finally success with the entire caching crew dajca1983, sxey86 & my baby boy bolaris.
My magnet on a telescopic stick tool came in handy here after spotting the cache quickly, then outwaiting a muggle who was just leaning on the fence nearby when his dog clearly wanted to go for a walk. He got the idea in the end and I got the cache at 4:15pm. Now off to my cricket meeting down the road.
thanks Scout Rikki
thanks Scout Rikki
Fun find, had to come back after footy. Log is in pieces, added a piece of paper and a ziplock bag for protection. Thanks.
I was a bit concerned when the GPS lead me to a big pile of dirt and gravel. However more likely locations were quickly identified. Sure enough after a bit of a casual look so as not to arouse the suspicious of a passing dog walker the cache was spied in the first place I looked. As soon as the coast was clear I pounced.Cache log signed and cache returned I was soon on my way.
Thanks to Scout Rikki for a great cache.

Being just 'average tall' meant this was a quick retrieval, and with no muggles it was a breeze - mighty cold too.

0040 GAFF1 Out on for some night caching with MVMB and with good coordinates this one was soon spotted (even by the light of the city). It must have dried out a bit, as the paper was only tatty, and not wet. I had a sandwich bag, but it was too big.
Will add a book mark for the Challenging Cache elective.

Due to a sore leg after my Oxfam Trailwalker effort, I needed a nice quick one with a short walk to GZ. This one fit the bill. Had to wait for a couple of jogging muggles, but cache was found quickly after that.
Log book is VERY sodden wet and needs urgent replacement.

Found with Ryanofoz! Had been meaning to do this one for a while and had an idea of where it may have been which turned out to be wrong. Trusted the GPS and soon spotted the cache, but I was too short! Ryanofoz had a higher reach than me and soon the cache was in hand. Signed and replaced. The log book was very tattered though and may need replacing sometime soon. TFTC!

I had lunch with a friend in Donvale today, and afterwards did a bit of geocaching in the area before heading home.
I pulled into the parking area near GZ, but there was a van parked opposite where I was sure the cache was be.
The guy seemed to be having a snooze, so after ascertaining that he could not see me in his mirrors, I retrieved the cache and signed the cache.
Thanks for placing this cache Scout Rikki

We took the long way home to pick up this cache. Mrs LZZ disappeared but YT finally caught up with her as she was assessing the access requirements. It was a bit of a stretch but the log was signed at 6:25pm
Over from the UK visiting family for Christmas took advantage of this one as it was nearby a quick stretch and cache was in hand log signed and returned in good order TFTC
Had about 10 min up my sleeve so this one of two I grabbed while driving down Doncaster road today. Found in second place I looked. Sl thanks Scout Rikki for the cache.
Quick find while getting take-away at a nearby restaurant. Glad I have long arms! Thanks.
Nice and quiet here today so it made for an easy find. Thanks for showing me a well used sport facility that I never knew about.
GPS seemed to be out a bit, but managed to locate it. Probably could do with a new log. TFTH Scout Rikki.
Out in Jackson Court for dinner and decided to have Cache as an entree.
A tasty morsel and devoured quickly.

Enticed toward Doncaster with the posting of the aptly named, “Political Party 2500” Event; we elected to visit some neighbouring caches.
We have been to this complex before, searching for a cache at a somewhat different elevation. this one certainly lives up to it's name!
FEEDBACK TO CO:- Given where we found the cache we believe the TR of 1.5 is a tad low. Terrain rating also includes ability to access cache.
TNLN . . SL . . Thanks for the hunt Scout Rikki.

On our way to the Political Party event we decided to leave a little early and pick up a few caches before we got there. We were a little concerned as we pulled up here as the car park was full of cars but there was still a little parking out the back. We could hear the basketball games going on inside the building but were very thankful that there was no footy being played today and our only problem was the occasional muggle walking passed so while the short one stood watch the taller one grabbed the cache and our name was added to the log.
Thanks Scout Rikki for the cache.

A nice quick grab for the taller of the two of us. No muggles outside today.

On another caching run with hubby Greysubmarine, this time to get me to #200! We pulled in to this GZ and I jumped out of the geokorando, immediately spotting this little gem in its hidey spot. Due to a troublesome shoulder, I couldn't get to this one so hubby had to use his ninja skills to get it for me.
Once in hand, I signed the log and in my excitement that I was signing hide #199, I dropped my iphone on the footpath and smashed the screen on it. NOT a happy little cacher!
Great little hide though Scout Rikki.

Another rainy morning meant no caching on the way to work so still needed a cache for the August souvenir. Being Friday I needed to stop at the nearby shops. Lots of cars around but none too close so no muggle problems this afternoon. Parked nearby and saw where the cache would be but checked the wrong one first. Signed and replaced and off with enough time to get the beer in the fridge and still get to school for pickup.

After locating the target on the map, guessed the hiding spot at GZ without pulling gps out of pocket.
Nice use of the environment, good hide, nice n sneaky.
Plenty of space still on log, but sheet is getting rather torn up.
Thx Riki

like many, needed a cache today so braved the weather for a relatively close to home and this was it. Parked on the street and followed the GPSr to GZ which was deserted - not like the other side of the wall which sounded like there were heaps of basketballing people! This was a quick stretch and grab, fortunately I'm just tall enough! Thanks to Scout Rikki for this one.
Found while on my way to other caches at Ruffey Lake Park. The GPS had me at the wrong location but working my way around the building eventually led me to the right spot. Thanks Scout Rikki

Ah, the joys of being 6ft3
I think I've found at least two caches in this park at different times, so it was familiar territory. And once the GPSr guided me to the right spot it was a very easy find. No problems here!

I had read the description and logs so wasn't sure that I would get this one but decided to have a look anyway. Besides, I do carry all sorts of things in the car.
In the end it was not too hard although the log has suffered badly from not having a clip. I added one from the supplies but it is badly torn.

Took a reach and jump to grab the cache... then I promptly lost it under a bush but got it signed and returned.
Found this one tonight. I needed a cache for today and this one ended up being today's cache. I suspect the terrain rating on this one should be a 2.0 and like the previous finders my gps put me nearby but not in the exact spot and after going the wrong way initially - the cache was found and the log signed.
Thanks for the cache Scout Rikki.
