As there has been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it has been a number of months since the last owner note I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

You should disable the cache while you are performing maintenance. Once the cache is in place (or you have confirmed that it is still there) you can enable it again.

Have to go find it as it has been reported lost. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Owner hasn't logged in for 8 months or so, cache has been damaged, the list goes on.

I think it might be time to archive this one before more people go looking for it.

Saw the previous logs so didn't hold much hope for this. Spent about 10 minutes or so looking but found nothing. Bit annoying to get a DNF on a visit to Australia from the UK, but hey.

Not Found at 14:53
Out for a day at the beach and picking up a few while out.
Had a good poke around at gz and in the area indicated by FamCrew! but could not locate.

Could this have been muggled?Found painted stone only. Disappointing as visitors from UK wanting to find as many as possible while we're here.

I was in the neighborhood and thought that this might be a challenge having read the last two logs - and instantly regretted seeking this one out. I hate the caches hidden in underbrush that is full of trash, poorly sited (could be under any number of rotten logs), and ends up in the searcher doing copious amounts of damage to the plants around the area. I can see nothing positive about this type of cache!

GMelb started to search for this one for a couple of minutess whilst JMelb was taking photos. JMelb then read back logs to see it hadnt had a find for months - could the owner please check and replace if missing - thanks

Found it after 20 min. of searching. But it´s nearly 10m off to direction NW, hidden under an old piece of wood. Logbook was ok and not wet. I hadn´t a look to the log´s before, so I missed it to take a picture of the location where it is hidden right now, sorry.

THX for the hide!
FamCrew!

No Trade!

Not found. Considering that the last find was more than 6 months ago, it's probably gone.

Had been here once before but it was muggle city and so we did not even try to find it but today it was nice and cold without interuption but we just walked in circles! Checked the clue and no sign of the object that may lead us to the cache and those we did find were 5m from GZ by our Garmin 650. Cloudy day and lots of vegetation or just cache blindness! We will return.

Had a good look. DNF

DNF @ 23:55 with Miss Raven. Looked at coordinates, looked around coordinates, looked at clue, looked for regions matching clue, looked at past logs. Other than finding the last few searchers logged DNFs, we found nothing. Perhaps CO should check this placement.

We looked for some time and found some likely hiding places but no cache. Please check this cache.

Found paper note but container was missing.

TFTC< Nice quick find with The Phant0m.

A nice nights caching with Hazey1. A nice easy find.

Took the kids to the beach and left them paddling to come over to this cache. Easy find. Thanks. Took Army TB.

nice place near the sea

nice hide short walk from teahouse took travel bug left geocoin thanks

Sunny day with smilingbob

The car bumper was a rouse!

Found today on a very cold and wet summers day! Lovely Melbourne weather, thought today was best to avoid the summer holidays crowds. Been meaning to visit for a long time. Easy find and nice easy stroll down beach. Forgot pen so will have to return to sign log another day, sorry
Left Mr Ray travel bug So he can enjoy the view of the beaches as the warmer weather roles in next week
Took globe stress ball.

Found it after going around in circles a few times as the geocaching app on the Iphone was not working very well in the bushland. Very good cache.TFTC

What a trek through bushland.

TFTC, appreciate it, took the wrong route through the bush, but it was fun.

Signed Logbook

One of the easier caches we've found.
Great for beginner cachers.
TFTC

PS. We came across the cache unaware we needed a pen, so will sign logbook on our next visit.

The bay was looking so calm and serene today as I looked for the cache. Not too hard to find and it was a beautiful walk to get here. Thanks for the cache.

night cache mission found but no TB TNLN Strikeswiftly out.

Was here several years ago showing a friend this activity called "geocaching". It stumped us then, though he returned shortly afterwards with his kids to find it. I returned today for a reasonably quick find a little away from where I searched last time. TFTC

Looked for a little while and eventually found it. Took nothing, left an earthcache geocoin.

Being on a business trip to the region I reserved this sunday afternoon to find some geocaches. Thanks for all the great experiences and the treasures I was able to find! smorp7

found it pretty easy thanks for cache Netbloke.

Found TFTC.

Found on an evening out caching with Burge. Wanted to come and grab this one for quite a while and it feels good to knock it off the list. Log book is full but we signed the bottom of the page. TNLN. TFTC.

Very quick find very easy on a cold night tnln tftc sl

Another busy day in and around melbourne searching for geocaches. Soon had this cache located. SL Thanks for the fun!

couldnt find "lost raiders" but found this without trouble

Third find on our Beaumaris caching run. We ventured down the beach and nearly were blown away by the strong winds.

We wanted to find the cache quickly as it was drizzling and the weather was shocking.

Once found, we logged the cache and ran away to the car.

Thanks netbloke for the cache.

Introduced to geocaching by a friend today. Found my first very close to home on a walk with the dog at my favourite spot on the bay.

Found nice and easy. Pen died. Couldn't sign. Tftc

3.56PM

On a caching run on this beautiful sunny and warm winters day in the Aspendale Gardens, Mordialloc and Beaumaris Area.

Parked the car in a side street off Beach road to avoid the parking fine, and went for a stroll. Nice spot for a cache that has been very well concealed. Now it is off to "Raiders of the Lost Carpark".

Thanks to netbloke for the cache. TNLN.

Just logging my personal name tag to track my personal distance traveled.

After completing a few caches in the afternoon in Glen Waverley, I headed south for the evening to pick up a number of caches in the Black Rock area of Melbourne. The night was cool, but as I was racing around looking for caches things got a little heated. This was a cache on my radar for the evening.

It was a cache I’d previously left alone because it was not in a location I usually frequent. The cache was found rather quickly and the log signed. Then back to the car for another find nearby.

Thanks to netbloke for the cache.

In a nice bayside beach setting. Fairly easy to locate.

Three bus loads of muggle kids everywhere & to top it off a large group of scuba divers were also in the area........stealth was required, how I pulled it off I don't know Found Cache exposed looks as thou someone found it and returned it.

Bugger!!! First one today to have me. I will return.

Out on my lunch break I thought I would try this one out! Found it, well hidden nice area, TNLN, TFTC

Made a good walk and bike ride. I couldn't find the rock, partly because I had to go home soon.
Do you mean the rocks jutting of the beach? If so, the co-ordinates are wrong.

Found after a bit of a search, took longer than i wanted it to.
Nice one.
TNLNSL.

After some frustration at another location this search was much more successful and the container was easy to spot as the camo had fallen away. Found at 11:40a and took away the 2 cent geocoin. TFTC

Great location, fantastic views. A few muggles about but nowhere near us. Cache was found soon after arriving at GZ. SL.
TFTC, Merann.

Dropped off geocoin TFTC

Picked TB to take to South Africa

#201. Number 15 of 23 finds today. Easy find - TFTC.

Found on a night caching run through the area. On my own tonight. Quick find after searching for a nearby cache that i had to return to. Quite a nice area. TFTC.

i LOVE the hiding spot!
at first i could not spot it!

Lots of muggles around. Fortunately we ducked for cover and found the cache a few meters from the GPS coordinates. Had to wait to leave as lifeguards were packing up. Nice hide. TFTC.

Just a quick stop at a nearby cache to drop some Travel items I brought back from Canada.....

Will come back when fewer people are around.

Stealth was required but did not stop us. TFTC SL

Nice spot
Almost no-one swimming today. tnln

Coordinates were a bit off but found it in the end. TFTC.

My first find on my own, on a day I was working down here. Will be placing an exciting cache nearby shortly.
Took TB, will log soon. TFTC

just got a new travel bug and am using it to calculate distance

Nice find
TFTC

Quickly found by Pathfinder24, while in the area. Thanks.

Found this afternoon with draw four, draw two, skip and uno
Dropped off TB TFTC

Found with Wild Josh, Draw Two, Uno and Skip. Easy enough find then kids had fun on the beach. 4 of 5 today - Great day for caching tnln. Tftc.

Quick find with Ostara74 while in the area.

Found this one, great hide TFTC

Took a little while to locate this cache as the gps was playing funny bugger's i had to resort back to the clue which didn't help to much at all,fortunitly the cache was found and i signed the log before heading for another cache.
Thanks for the cache netbloke.

Second of four found today in rather changeable weather conditions. A nice easy find - I seemed to come on it much earlier than I expected. Thank you for the cache and for taking me to an art lesson.

Found with waterette1. TFTC

Found with lizako and 4 geokiddies in prams. A beautiful day to be by the bay, finished with making sandcastles near gz and a visit to cafe

#44 Beautiful morning to go geocaching at the beach . Enjoyed that bit of a morning walk. I loooooooooved seeing the doggies run on the beach and got to say hello to one, too. So, pretty much I enjoyed looking at the beach and dogs and taking photos and sent Mr.P looking for the cache. Worked well as he found it pretty quickly .
TNLN

Found on my home from work this & it's mate up the track have been bugging for so long now.

This one found by me was our Sixth of 13 on a not soo warm (but thankfully dry) caching run.. With StreetO, Mr_X_02, Top That and Diablo1234 TFTC netbloke SL

Slight detour from work and I found this cache. Thanks, netbloke.
Left a sea turtle and took Harold the Travel Bug.

2nd time here after the first time we only had a few minutes to find it. Turned out to be an easy cache in the end. Also saw my travel bug 'Harold the Travel Copter'. TFTC

Just putting this coin in.

Good cache.

just moving GI Joe along.

Nice hide. Harold was almost a lifesaver and had an artistic landing between a tramway and a beach. Left Harold the travel bug took crazy bone.

This took a while and I must admit I couldn't figure out where the rock was.

This took a while. Little confused by the clue because it wasn't where it said it would be. We couldn't resist a quick hot chocolate at the tea rooms afterwards. TFTC

We were looking in the wrong spot to start but eventually found it. Took mighty beanz, left toy car. TFTC.

Cheers tftc tnln

Beautiful Sea.. Watch muggle with surf.. Found with Everlasting TFTC

With Crank1 - we enjoyed walk along to the cache - she found it before me. No swap. SL. Thanks netbloke

Took us ages to get this as there were a group of dog walkers whose definition of dog walking consisted of standing RIGHT infront of GZ while their dogs lay next to them!!!???? On our first try we emerged from the bushes only to find a dog racing towards us barking - talk about blowing our cover!!!!! We covered by pretending to read the sign and then abandoned till the beach was clear. Great location, thanks for the fab cache.
