I have been planning on visiting this series of caches since they were published and with the added incentive of the current GCA game "Journey or Destination" I decided that today was the day to go for a lovely walk around this parkland.
My husband and sons sometimes play hockey nearby so I am quite familiar with the area as I like to go for a walk while they are warming up before their game.
I searched around the area and found something that fitted the clue but I was unable to locate Paras. Although I didn't find the cache I still enjoyed the area.
Thank you MsZahra and the Year 11 Outdoor & Environmental studies class of 2018 for this cache.

Another co-ordinate update as this was was far to far away to be easily found and we only found it thanks to the persistance of the previous finders.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks for this series of geocaches around the area.Quite a few need better co-ordinates as they are generally far to far away to be considered findable withing the terrain and difficulty listed. A lesson in co-ordinate averaging might assist these cache placemeents and any for the future. The walk around the park is quite pleasant, especially in nice weather and it was great way to spend an afternoon chasging down adorable pet rocks.

In Melbourne for a few days for both family and caching activities, with Luckyl10n along for the ride, and we decided to head out to this series this morning. Only found 10 of the 17 as some of the co-ords were a little out. The hints helped with some, but not others. We enjoyed the walk around the area trying to work out where we hide a cache like this, so even with a few DNF's, all was not lost.
Hopefully some of the caches are still there and haven't been muggled by someone simply walking past. We will add better co-ords for those we have.
Thanks MsZahra, and all involved in placing the caches....

#GA3174 - 09:40; In Melbourne for a couple of days with Sol de lune and after a later than usual start to the day, we headed over to give this series a try. After making our first couple of finds, we had a better idea about what we were looking for. It turns out some of the coordinates were quite a way out, some up to 60 metres from posted coords, so I've added additional coords for those we managed to find to help future searches. A couple we still couldn't find despite very good hints and a couple may have wandered. Anyway, we enjoyed a stroll around the parklands and managed to find 10 of 17 for our efforts for 10 *FTF* as a bonus. TFTC MsZahra
