The last of three finds in this series during a 6km wander this afternoon.
I parked in Kalman Drive and enjoyed a great walk up and over the hill in Army Road.
Then it was time to head over to this cache. The air was so still that not a single leaf was stirring. Even the few birds that were seen appeared a bit listless.
The heat wasn't oppressive but the storm clouds were definitely getting closer to the mountain and the smell of rain was in the air.
The cache was covered with a piece of bark, but obvious to anyone looking for it.
**No stamp, stamp pad or log book here. The stamp has been ripped from the lid, damaging it.**
**I left a piece of notepaper with my name on it but this cache is in dire need of owner intervention.**
Time to head back to the truck...

Out on my own today attempting to clear out a couple more in the Dandenongs and this was on my way home. Nearly finished off all the green spaces in Knox with this one. What a great idea for the council well done. Easy parking and short walk for an easy frog find. Cache in excellent condition and well placed. Stamp dried. I used just a little bit of water on it. Thanks for the cache.
Thank you Knox's biodiversity team, on my way to work this morning I was able to combine a nice walk around the oval with an equalling rewarding geocache, kind regards from Vic
Oh dear! We came across this cache strewn across the grass, in a few pieces, drenched by the rain. The log was so wet it was unable to be signed and the ink pad for the stamp only just worked enough to make a faint mark on my passport. I put it all back together, although I left the soaked logbook outside of the container in the hope that it will get to dry out over the next few days. I’ve placed the cache where my app said that GZ was, placed the sodden logbook on top of the Sistema container, and covered the whole lot with a couple of large pieces of bark. Hopefully the next person to find this will know to pop the dry logbook back inside the cache.
There are quite a few KNDP caches on the list to be done today. This one was found after a short search in a lovely park.
Out with BoabTree, we were following the trail of KNDP caches and doing a few trads and puzzles in between. Found after a short search, it may have a little cache creep. Thanks Knox Biodiversity Team.
Found at 4:37 pm.
Out for a quick bike ride around this area. No problem with any of the finds because the muggle count was lower due to the cold and windy weather which was fine by me.
Thanks KnoxBiodiversity for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

First time caching in 10 years. Found easily with my two girls. Added a toy dinosaur. Thanks for the cache!
Trying for another cache in the area and this was close by. Quick find in GZ with partner TFTC
Nice quick find. Like others, started on the wrong side of the creek but found a shallow point to cross over to the reserve side. Stamp missing but photo taken as evidence for the passport
Nice easy find on a day out. Come at it from the oval side for a quick find or go for a longer walk on the opposite side of the creek and find a way over. Great pleasure for the Geopup.
Tried this yesterday and realised we were on the wrong side of the creek, so came back today. Quick and easy find - enjoying this series. TFTC
Out for our exercise today and picked up this cache while walking around the area between the showers. TFTC. TNLN.
Found on Sept 1, forgot to log. We were a but frazzled by few big dogs off leash on the sports ground.
Grabbed this cache while walking around the area today. Luckily it was far enough away from the main path so we could retrieve it without being observed by the many walkers out and about today.

Quite busy around here but managed to find the cache without anybody watching.

Extremely easy to find due to being out in the open. Tried to hide a bit more with more for the next person!
Found it! My daughter was very excited when she spotted it just off the side of the path. Used the stamp, signed the log and replaced exactly as found without being seen. TFTC!
Working nearby today, so found this one. It was visible as I approached, so I camoed it a little better after signing.

I have slowly been working my way through this series of caches given they are nicely located in close by reserves that provide different destinations for my walks and runs. Didn't take me long to find the cache here. TFTC Knox Biodiversity Team
Stamp is in a small clear container, in the underbrush. Took a while to find, well hidden!!!!
This is just within my 5 km zone, so I exercised here with Crusty K9. The container was clearly visible on approach so, after signing the log, we covered it more thoroughly.
Thanks for putting out the cache KBT.

Very wet lockdown weekend find. Intended to get a few more today but the rain was so heavy it was washing the stamp off the book. Went home to make brownies instead. TFTC
Easiest one so far. Parked at playground and followed bike track for 200m. About 20 metres off the bike track. No rubbish or needles seen. Not sure if cleaned up since previous posts or people were coming from different directions.
Great spot. Well done.

I backtracked a degree on the trip back home after finding another cache in this series. tftc
Found in the company of quiet1_au and GJMMelb. Another quick find. So good to be out and about again. TFTC
