Went for a wander in the sunshine today and checked on the hide, blending in amazingly but just sitting happily where it should be
Thanks for the very clever find ! Very simple, yet very well thought out ! Thanks for find 392!
A nice quick find with Jeremy on the way to pick Sami up from work this afternoon. A pleasantly deserted park made for an easy find here today, despite the excellent camouflage. Thanks, 2big2little,for adding this cache to the game.
a good one! spent a while looking in the wrong spots but once i saw it i just knew that it was the one. the camouflage makes it sm fun
Thank you, hard find but in the end it was found. Good job owner for the location
Checked on this guy, sitting where it should be but the nearby tree seems to have adopted it and the camo has changed colour to match making it very well hidden!
Checked on this little guy and found that it is still happily in place. Seems to have blended and melded into its surrounds so that the camo is working very well and makes it hard to see.Removed some rubbish to clean up the location.
What a clever little design didnt realise it was even the cache until I flipped it!
This was my first ever Geocache! It was really fun and not at all what I was expecting:) Thanks
We found this cache on our Casey and Cardinia Cache Hunt. We thought that this would be one of two types of hide. Turns out that it was neither of those and something a lot simpler. Our 2nd cache find at this park. Thanks from D & HA B-A
Out in Berwick looking for a second hand car for my son. Better grab a local cache to keep my streak going. Searched the area and found the odd thing out. Well hidden and blends in. TFTC
Steve had attempted to pickup this cache last week, however he ended up walking away empty handed. Today he bought in some reinforcements (me).
Thanks to Riddell’s log, (Can see where someone has scrapped and scrapped the surface but around the wrong tree!.) we at least knew which tree to avoid as that someone was Steve.
Having an idea of what we could be looking for, today Steve went straight to the cache. He really didn’t need my help in the end:)
Thanks 2big2little for the chance to get out and about in the fresh air.

Mr Riddell found it quickly.
Luckily he knew what he was looking at.
The satellites were a bit off under tree and cloud cover…. Picking the correct tree was the issue.

This one blended in beautifully
TFTC we stayed in an Airbnb nearby.

After dropping my daughter off at her art classes, I stopped at this cache. On the walk to GZ, I had a strong sense of being at this location before, but I knew I had not. The cache took a few minutes to locate as it blended in quite nicely. Thanks for placing this one here for me to find!
We aren't often in this area but Papi had to catch up with someone. Just had time for a quick park and grab. Thanks for placing the cache for us to find.
This was a nice quick find whilst GT37 and I were running an errand in the area. Thanks for the cache.
Found it after looking twice, after what felt like forever we found it after moving it unintentionally. Great spot!
Didn’t really have that much time to find this cache, I’ll probably come back another time.
Found It!
This park could do with a mow. After a bit of poking around I stumbled upon the cache!

We had been in the nearby area for Operation logbook! Some of the Mega committee working on an assemble, staple, chop and stuff.
The nearby dog was barking non stop during the search for this cache but we soon had the cache in hand and made for a quick signing so we could get away.
Thanks 2big2little for adding this cache to the worldwide collection for us all to find.

After spending half the day finishing off some mega business in Narre Warren, it was time for a spot of caching.
The three muggles standing across the way were thankfully hidden from view. Although the dog over the fence with its relentless barking was rather annoying. The cache was eventually found.
Thanks for bringing us here by placing this cache, 2big2little

Been and checked, cache is tucked away nicely just where its supposed to be. Camouflage working nicely as it is blending in well. Look carefully, and you'll find it
Took me a little while to spot it. Still nicely camouflaged. Found it with my foot.
Thanks

This one was difficult to get to with all the roadworks going on close by. Once there a short stroll over to GZ. A nice cammo as it blended in well with the environment.
Log signed and all back safe as found.
Thanks 2big2little.

Date 21/06/22 this was my first goechashing it was hard to find at first but I found it and we left a little something thank for the fun
After a road trip to Sydney in the last few days to find a golden dragon, I also finally had Australia's oldest cache found so I needed a cache placed in June to qualify for a Jasmer challenge I had signed in SA last year so headed out along the highway with my geokid to get sidetracked with a few of the new caches along the railway line.
Great day to come here with not many people around. Took a couple of minutes looking in the wrong places before I spotted it.
Thanks 2big2little for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

Killing some time while my son is at sport this morning.
Upon arriving, I was happy to see the area deserted, meaning I could search without being spotted!
Once I'd gotten to GZ, it was a quick search, then log signed and replaced.
Thanks for placing in the wild for us to find

Out with Rebel Acts on this long weekend to put some smiles on the local map.
Great day of caching with some kayak action and a few virtual cache's too.
This was one of the cache's we found, have seen a few of these containers over the years.
cheers for the cache.

Out and about once again with Omegaman1971 for our regular weekend catch up and cache, this time it was a long weekend, we managed a few Yak caches, a couple of Victuals and a few solved puzzles I was keen to pick up.
This is one of the caches found today.

After a few colourful words shared between me and my mate we finally found it. Took a little but as it was very well hidden. Cheers

Heymissjo needed a cache today.
It gets like that sometimes. But it was a gap in her 'date found' calendar that gave us a little extra motivation.
We had our four youngest Minis with us, and Emeylou was playing basketball just around the corner. So this seemed a very natural smiley for us to pick up, and one that was friendly for the kids (in that it was a quick and easy grab). For some reason, they never seem to be in the mood to cache in a Saturday afternoon...
As we crossed the road and entered the park, I was stunned by Geo-Bug's admission that she was actually in a rare geocaching mood!! I wish I could bottle that enthusiasm, and bring it out on days when the kids are grumbling. But at least she was content today.
Heymissjo and I wandered in the direction of GZ with a Mini or two joining in the search while another went hunting for sticks instead. And in the short time it took us to find and sign the log, we'd lost all of them to stickology. I guess I can't blame them - there really were some excellent samples to try out here!
So, I guess we all walked away with smileys today.
Thanks, 2big2little.

Down this way for a Welder Mini basketball game and now that it’s done. The Welder and I thought we would treat ourselves to a cache. A nice quick find I’m the sunshine. Thanks for the cache.

Had almost given up hope but council finally tagged debris in the park for removal and have now cleared up the dead tree bits!
Tree finally removed by council and access to GZ is now clear. Updated the hint as all the clearing now means you can come to GZ from both sides so changed to just base of tree. Same location and container.
Keep thinking that GZ would get tidies up, but now the council seem to not be removing the fallen tree instead just mowing around it. Now that his mostly died off its ok to get to GZ, just have to find where I safely stashed my cache!
Will try and find or replace

This is a belated log but we did find it. It was still in its position between a rock and the ground.
The fallen tree didn't obstruct our find.
Thanks 2big2little for showing us this park.
Chiefton!!!

Sorry with all the covid stuff wasn't sure about putting out new containers and re-enabling. Have new container ready, will rehide and re-enable asap.
Temporarily disabling as seems to have vanished. Will rehide soon. Should have plenty of home time to make a new fancy container
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.

Thanks to the creator for making this. We enjoyed finding this cache. We are beginners to the activity and we think that this one was great!
whilst in the area we decided to do this cache.
Talked to a previous finder, who told us we were in the right spot.
Cache soon located. Signed SASRs. Tftc

Walked straight to this cache and passed it. Then around again. And passed it again. Why? My face was mimickingq Gen Y.. As soon as I lowered my attention diversion, I saw it.. Right there. Taunting me. AND in plain sight of MUGGLES! now what to do. CO and I think there has been maintenance in the area and the considerate workers didn't dispose of it.... First CIH = SLTNLN TYFTC then msg CO and altered visibility setting to one above the cut one so muggles really don't see it. Temporary T is slightly higher but no TOTT needed... Tippy toes maybe but I am not tall at all
I pass this cache everyday on the way to work - but always look suspicious in my uniform. Today the 1st 1/2 of the team has injured himself - so whilst hes stuck at work waiting for a scan me & Geokid 3 have come to the playground - & find the cache that iv been meaning to get!! Quick easy find - Miss 3 was very excited to be the one to spot it! Tftf
*Found on the 9 Nov 2019 @ 10:44 am.*
*Cache find # 10069.*
While I was over this way I thought I would take a look at this one.
I headed into the park and started looking but then decided to read the cache page and when I looked up I spotted the cache a few metres away, I then went over and signed the log.
