This was our second one for the day but after having a run in with the grumpy old men from the archery club and having to walk further to search for this we searched for a good half an hour before we had to give up, it really looks like there's a place that might have been a geocache home and it would certainly have matched the hint but there was definitely nothing there! I really think that after 5 DNFs in a row this one could do with a check? Thanks anyway, hopefully we can come back sometime in the future for another look!
Had a look for a while and figured it was missing.
By the way watch out for the grumpy old men from the archery club. We parked in the car park next to the club house. In the disabled park...because Beckgiz has a disability sticker and has issues walking... we were greeted with a group of men who first if all thought we were parked illegally and then told us that they would lock the gates when leaving. After parking further up and walking further we noticed that they were in fact just setting up.
Please don't just assume that younger people aren't disabled enough to use the park provided!
Rant over! I hope they miss all their targets!

I had to drop my kids off at the school on this road for a music rehearsal so I just drove further down. I parked nearby and wanted around this bushy spot for a while with no luck. When I widened my search, I spotted the container on the ground in the open done distance away. I signed the log and replaced the cache per the hint as close to the coords as I could.
Thanks Echo & Spice for the cache

Hard to find but fun in a different location to what it says on 2 stars very annoying
This is my first geocache in Australia. Went on a trip to U.S.A and did my first two there. Now I'm back!
Over in Melbourne for a few days of work to and some time to kill so why not grab a cache.
Many thanks to Echo & Spice for placing and maintaining Archer's association. I found it, I signed it, and put it back as found.

I parked at the Mulgrave Community Centre and went for a nice walk all the way around the reserve. I picked up the cache along the way.

On the way through to Hampton Park, visiting my uncle I decided a slight detour to grab this cache was in order as it was on a degree from home that I have yet to sign off yet. (360 degree challenge on Project GC)
My timing was terrible however with School just finishing for the day and the crazy parents stopping illegally and pulling out in front off me all trying to pick up their kids quickly. Once I was pasted the college it was nice and quiet for an easy stroll and quick find at GZ.
Thank you Echo & Spice for the hide

Great little hide, thank you. I decided to grab this way on my way to an appointment. But I under estimated the time and now I’m late! It was still worth it though.
I was looking for ages like about half an hour and just as I was about ready to leave I started reading past comments from recent time such as 2020 and one said that it was in the middle of a bush tucked away and that’s the one place I did not think to check right in the middle of the bushes and just as I was about to get up to my last push and about to give up I found it
I found myself out in the area again picking up Lego from my Lego Man in Wheelers Hill. I must stop buying so much Lego but the Titanic has been released and I had saved up for it for so long. Tonight I got the call to come and pick it up. I was in my car quick as a flash.
Afterwards ofcourse, a little bit of cheeky caching was had. I looked on my map and spotted this one. I saw I could pretty much drive close to GZ but when I got there, the gate was locked up and I was left with a dilemma. Do I find another cache which is a driveway or do I slog it out here, being mindful its dark already and I'm scared of the dark. Well I mustered up the courage and made the walk, well actually a run huffing and puffing to GZ 360 metres away. Luckily it was mostly a run across a flat open footy oval with some lighting around.
At GZ I spent way too long than was necessary looking around. I convinced myself I knew what I was looking for, over complicating my thinking, but in the end it was an obvious and simple hide. Co-ords were reasonable accurate here too. Finally the log was signed.
The cache is in good condition. The log sheet is ok. It should last a while longer.
I think this one is best found in the day as the mozzies absolutely devoured me here.
Thank you for the cache here Echo & Spice

It was so nice to be able to walk outside of the 5km bubble and combine it with a cheeky side trip to this cache. My phone GPS wasn't playing nicely but it didn't take too long to spy the cache. All good here. TFTC Echo & Spice
Found it by ondalookout helped by imgeojoe
Very good hiding place keep your nose to the ground

I searched around every bush and log and couldn’t find it. It looks like the wind has dropped a few branches and pushed trees over, when comparing other people photos
The clue doesn’t make sense to me either.

It took us a little longer to find this one, bc it was not exactly where our GPS said (slightly south but not too much) and I forgot where it was since the last log haha... Sis got freaked out by the spiders though...

On a caching run around the Dandenong/Keysborough/Noble Park area and found this cache along the way.
An easy find nearby a spot that I too had wondered what was going on for quite a while.
The container was quite exposed in the middle of the bush so the log was signed and the container returned tucked underneath.
All is well with the cache here.
Thanks to Echo & Spice for the hide.

YAPIDKA! No arrows flying today. What a great park and Rec facility. The cache stared at me so not a tough find. TFTC
Took ages to find the fight spot in the dark. Befuddled all my cacher senses! T4TC!!!
Took my daughter for a walk to see the archery club, it was closed at the time but we collected this cache anyway.
Arrived GZ and notice that the cache was on the ground after log it so put it back to hide also the log papers are very soapy manage to log it Found your cache today. Echo & Spice, thank you so much for placing it.
Lovely walk on a chill winter's evening! I was looking at my phone rather than where I was going, and literally kicked the cache! TFTC!
This one actually had me looking for a few minutes. My gps was playing silly buggers
It's a warm Melbourne summer afternoon and it looks like going to be a lot hotter later in the week so we thought it's better to get some caches today while the opportunity is there. Brought the geokids over to this part of Melbourne for what should be some easy geocaches.
After parking in the car park and a nice easy stroll to where we should be, the cache was already spotted and picked up by elder geokid before little geokid and I had arrived on the scene. He said there was no attempt to camouflage it. And I responded, that's why we're here for some easy ones! Little geokid got stuck into the cache checking out the swaps while I signed the log. He left a couple of swaps and took the pirate's gold coin. He loves doing trades at decent size caches.

This was our first time Geocaching...we were so excited to find the container!!! It was well hidden. My daughter loved looking at the treasures people had left!! Thank you very much for the fun location.
Log was full so added a sheet of note paper for future logs. Cord put me a couple of meters out but the hint put me right where I should have been. The freeway noise at this park is incredible but I am sure it would be nicer when not peak hour traffic passing alongside.
Thanks Echo & Spice for the cache.

Found this one while out riding with the geokid on a hot spring day. Hadn't found a cache for a while and luckily this one was nearby when we decided to check for some. Found the spot fairly quickly, no stray arrows to dodge today! The log is full, but we squeezed our names in. TNLN. Thanks for the hide Echo & Spice!
