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.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 30 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness. If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every month or so to keep everyone up to date.

Unfortunately I am away atm and wont be back till may 24th but will action as soon as home again

Thanx for the info

Found at 12:35 & dipped 2 of my own TB's SL TFTC

Found today but as stated on my log it is no longer available.

This place was a test long before a treasure was ever placed here.
This is a tricky Golf course and has maintained a high standard right from the start.
Now this treasure has come along the high standard continues with a hide that just begs to be found.
Well done T.Trudi and I hope the course does not offer you to many obstacles.

Yay, another for the day. Didn't take anything but out a Brisbane lions badge in there. Growing lions.

Coming to the end of a night cache we came out this end of the woods and stumbled accross this beautiful building and was lucky to pick up a tb to move on. Tftc

After years if driving past this location I never knew this bluestone building existed. Thanks for bringing me here.

#1,777

So geocachers aren't the only mad people who get up early in the morning to pursue their hobby?

This was a lovely looking golf course, and a pleasant spot to look for our last cache in the area before resuming our trip to Melbourne. And nice for still sleepy brains to have an easy one to find.

Thanks

Easy find. Nice location. Left a TB to continue its journey. TFTC.

The light was only just up as we drove into the golf course, but there were some eager golfers starting their morning, nevertheless. As we approached GZ I saw an old mower or small tractor and wondered whether we'd be looking for a micro on that. That would just be too much, first thing in the morning. But it was a much easier task than that. Thanks.

Really quickly found, it wasn't covered up at all by the previous finders who had visited earlier that day. I put a brick on top as a bit more camo.

Beautiful location, found during a morning of Geocaching with the kids.

Quickly found with the help of a local while down from NSW for the day, lovely spot here, tftc

A few creeps and crawlers but success with Cmac07

I was heading back home after caching around Whittlesea and Eden Park. I was passed the cache before I know it because I wasn't expecting it to be in this particular place. So after a U-turn, it was up the drive and park. Although there were a few people around, it was trouble free stroll from the car park to the "growling cache".

As well as signing the log, I have left a GeoCoin that the owner would like to get to New Zealand. Perhaps the next person to pick it up could help it with more success than I could...and please, make sure you log its travels.

Thanks T.Trudi for a cleverly placed cache.

Great place always just driven past. Tftc...in great condition.

Tftc! Jce veiw.

My second cache, my sister erin-rose brought me to find one with her.
Lots of bugs, but a good hide. Walked up to the area right away.
Thank you!

Tough get with all the muggles around and driving past. Easy find though. Took nothing, left $2 Singapore note.
Thanks for the cache.

My 100th cache find!!!!

I live nearby, but I've never been there. So beautiful. TFTC

TFTC. Easy find, nice view of lake and golfcourse

My fiancé's first find all by herself! Yay!!!

A lovely spot full of muggles.

Another foot bleeding Geocaching adventure today on my Cache #100 for Xmas goal. This was no 5 for the day.

CACHE # 75 !!!

This was a good one for a milestone cache. A great example of what I like about geocaching. I didn't know this place was even here and never would have but for this cache.

Cache is in excellent condition. TNLNSL Thanks T.Trudi for this cache and giving me an idea of somewhere new to try out for dinner one night.

#3386 This place is pretty popular on a Saturday morning - lucky for us they were all in the clubhouse or out on the course. A few places to look, Dad soon located in a place that he didn't expect. Our thanks to T.Trudi for the cache - no swaps today

Heading to Bonnie Doon for the cup weekend. with Happy Chappies. and families.

A very good looking golf course. When we were walking up to G.Z. i noticed it was locked up.
Thankfully all good. An easy find.

thanks T.Trudi [:x]

Felt a bit conspicuous in our big, bright yellow agricultural-looking Defender as we drove into the lush grounds and parked it next to the German sedans and crisp looking company dual-cabs Even moreso when we hopped out looking like anything but golfers.

But no one seemed to care as we wandered over to GZ. Not sure what to do at first but we just resorted to a likely spot and there it was....

Very cute to see a golf glove in there as a swap! TFTC

Heading north of Melbourne and heading across to Yarra Junction, I saw this cache was listed and thought I'd quickly go in and get it, easy find and signing of log, a pic taken then on my way. TFTC

Found with nirgalagrin... now I have my own account.

11:18

Starting the day on some computer maintenance in Broadmeadows, I cast about for some caches to do, and decided to head east. This was as good a place to begin as any.



Parking was plentiful, the sun shone, and the guy doing laps around us on his mower took no notice as we headed off to enjoy the view from GZ. The cache was a simple grab, and big enough for the little one to have fun rooting through, before I waited until the mower was on the far side of his next lap, returned the container and we were back at the car by the time he wheeled into view.

12.50pm On my way back from Yea driving through some 3,000 cyclists in the rain I was glad to back into normal traffic.
Lovely open area here with no parking problems at all. Did a casual walk over to the historical ?? Nice easy find and suprised that the keepers dont find it.
Took in the view, magic
WHY THE NAME, no one to growl here
Thanks for the cache T.Trudi

Quick find. Very pretty location & building

Grandma muggle had a play w GPS and found this one! Thx for the growl

Interesting little building. We were trying to decide what it had been. Thanks for bringing us here and for the cache.

What a nice place to stop for a moment.

Easy find.
Didn't take me that long to it find.
Seems to be a great place to play golf, but alas I don't, I cache on my Sundays. LOL

A quick find in a nice spot with lovely views.tft,

Tftc took toy cheetah left tennis keyring

Found @1441 #1636
Today was another epic cache run with best mate ahomburg thru an area of Melbourne I have not visited until today. This was one of 32 found and we also had a few DNFs.

After had 3 straight DNFs in a row it was good to finally get a find under the belt. Never been to this area before, a nice spot and the likely location for the cache was spotted from a distance. Thanks for bringing me here T.Trudi. No muggles seen playing this strange game today. TFTC

Find # 1782

After a late night at the WWFM IX event in the city and just three hours sleep, I was picked up by my caching partner in crime, sedgwickDave and we headed in a northerly direction towards Whittlesea and a massive day of caching.

We parked in the car park and headed towards GZ as a light patter of rain started to fall. I had not looked at my GPSr, I assumed I was searching the right spot, when all of a sudden dave said "have a look over here" and sure enough the cache was found not where I had been looking. Not a bad view over the Golf course from here. [^]

Thanks to T.Trudi for the cache.

Arrived at gz and was surprised to see the cache hidden in such a visible spot, especially when there are more secluded spots, but credit is due for making it so obvious. Nice views too. TFTC.

Nice place. I always love seeing a site like this one. Gives me something to google when I get home. TFTC

Tftc, nice easy find, love the golf course

We liked the locality of this hide, very picturesque and also a great place to have lunch. Enjoyed the hide site too. Left a travel bug here, thanks for the cache.

#1146 Heading north to Echuca for the 100 year Reunion of the High School and picking up a few caches along the way. There seemed to be an obvious spot to look but while I was still contemplating if it matched the hint my geowife searched and found it. Took the Dog TB to move it along Thanks T.Trudi.

I play here regularly and never thought there would be a cache so close. Thank you.

After having a round of golf at Whittlesea, I thought I would just do a quick couple of caches as the area is new to me. Then I get to this cache. Guess I will have to come back next weekend at try out the golf course and driving range!!

Nice hide but took a while for GZ to de-muggle! Interesting area though - TFTC. Dropped a new TB here from NZ.

Found by The Empire @ 8:45am with tackle_head
Find number 2 of 26 on the way to another milestone. tackle had already been here so waited as I made the find and signed the log. What a cool building! Thanks for bringing us here T.Trudi. I have to come back here for a round.

Found with Troobloo. Nice quick stop on our way to Melb. Enjoyed checking out the area. SL TNLN T4TC

Lovely spot, I could just imagine the scene here 100 years ago when it was a farm
TFTC

First for the day. Nice spot up here, and great views. Left golf glove, yer thats right "a golf glove" dosen't everyone have a golf glove in their caching bag? Took happy meal toy. Thanks.

Loved the area. Such a nice looking course and surrounds. The rabbits were all out in play. Found cache easy enough. Wonder what the structure used to be? TFTC Raainjoy

Found @18:10 in the pouring rain on a Friday night out caching with GeoDad. Even in the horrid conditions this is such a nice place to visit. TNLN TFTC!

Found by pen.sco @ 4:15pm. A few muggles about meant we had to time it right. Kids had some fun looking thru the swag. Swapped one car for another and the wristband for an orange head. TFTC

Lucky i had read the logs before hand as was a very quick find. Used to love playing golf here I took up geocaching but now I have a different hobby. TFTC TNLN

# 2347 @ 16:15 and 14th of 21 finds on the Wandong outing TNLNSL

I spotted a wee corner of the cache and realised access was required from inside the building but there is no longer any access with metal grating being placed over all doors and windows. I was able to manouvre and coax the cache out of its entrapment and I have replaced it in the same place where it can be readily accessed from the outside. That may also explain why it hasn't been found for a while. May I suggest the hint be changed accordingly.

Thanks T.Trudi

Nice place.. Tftc

Well hidden TFTC

Quick easy find, got some strange looks when I turned up on the bike. Think they thought I was going to turn their pretty lawn into an MX track. SL T4TC

went to this one long ago with TrynaFindaCache (was Ben170292 at the time). thought it was about time i signed the log. i got there, opened the cache and had a quick flip through the log book just to see all the new entries. as i went to sign the log i realized there was no pen. and i didnt have one on me. i will be sure to go back and sign the log with this date. TFTC

Picked up TB. Plenty of dead animals in the back room!

Dropped a TB

Alansee helped retrieve this cache. Lots of empty beer bottles and other rubbish here unfortunately - in stark contrast to the golf club house, where we ended up having a nice hot cup of coffee! TFTC

good to see a nice big cache again tftc

Awesome view; the other half golfs here but my first time. Took the Geocoin and left the appropriately themed Hole in One TB! TFTC

Nice easy Cache, TNLN TFTC

Tftc found with dmbm!

Easy find, but lovely surrounds. Geodog had a run around. TFTC.

Nice easy find in a lovely location. Left Mr Slots TB and Caching with Kids Coin.

TFTC SL

Nice place for a coldie after we found it

bit smelly here but nice quick find TFTC

TFTC its stinks abit!

Found it with hint - it was sticking out so placed it a bit further out of view. Took a star rubber and left a purple bracelet TFTC

Found tnln, didn't sign no pen/pencil

31/12/2010 20:50 Found: #159 Easy with hint. Whilst I did initially walk right past the cache, I simply didn't expect it to be there. In plain sight so I put it back a little more hidden this time. Plenty of beer bottles in the walls so I assume its a noted hang out for those that like to part-ee. TFTC TNLN SL

This one was easy, TN LN, did not sign log no pens/pencils. Others beware of beer bottles, nice and quick cache.

Eew spiders! But nice view and a nice 18 holes played afterwards!

Found at 4.55pm. A quick find after visiting two caches at nearby Eden Park We pay rates towards this venue - but the first time we had visited TNLN TFTC

4th find for the day with C@H (CovertHypnosis) on what will later become my biggest caching day.. found on way to the Back to the Beginning - 10 years of Vic caching! event, SL TFTC #532

While Spladem found the cache I took my time to take some pictures.TFTC

A lovely hide in a great location. I love lod things, and the geodaughter spent time playing on the rusty device nearby. TFTH...SL...TNLN

Found with Crank1
Lovely place to visit here
Thanks for bring us here

When we arrived there and walked, few rabbits ran inside the house..
Found it with Alchemy2.
TFTC

11-09 10th find of the day at 12:41 and 1137th find in total.
We were sure where this one was hiding while we were making our way up to GZ, but it as it turned out the rusting hulk wasn't the home were looking for. We were even more surprised by the mural and the baby bunny living in the wall winking at our searching.
(''\(OoO)/'') Thanks T.Trudi for the caching fun!

Found with Blacklegend17. TFTC.

A bit of a different hiding spot... But i like it. This was my third visit to this cache, and muggle factors prevented my finding it on the previous occasions, not this time however. TFTC.

Quick find after braving the spideys tftc

quick find with Dunko on a day out caching TNLN TFTC SL

Found while out on a winters day cache run with Slink1 TFTC SL

Easy find... scared it will be found by all those who drink in there. Tried to hide it a bit bette rin it's spot. T-GeoCoin, L-Epic Barrel Aged IPA bottle cap.

TNLNSL, had to search every place before finding it. Drive past here everyday and never stopped for a look so thanks!

Found on another mega day caching with bogonghazy. I was lucky bogonghazy didn't have his golf clubs in the car, or I may have been short a caching partner for the rest of the afternoon!!

It's great when a new facility retains relics from the past for the benefit of all.
The course was tempting, but the look from Reesylou when I suggested having a round was enough to leave ir for another day.
My thanks to T.Trudi for another interesting cache, TNLNSL

Found with friend Art. today @ 1440 hrs it's a pity the building doesn't have better care.
Took Victorian Bushfire Appeal Geocoin PC12YQ which will be moved on in due course.
