As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, I'm archiving it to keep it 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 us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Muggled as per picture by previous finder.

Replacement of this cache is needed as cache container is squashed and no log to been seen

will check this as the rating is hard IF its gone we will replace cheers

Well we found what we think was the cache, as the previous cachers have remark it looks like it was muggled.

Looked everywhere, but not successful. Found this box - hope it wasn't the cache, which was muggled... Good luck for the next cachers!

Located the cache on a quick stop, but then had to wait for a muggle 'tradie' to finish his lunch and then move on before retrieving it. Signed the log and then were back on our way.

Thanks for an easy find.

Several bus passengers were waiting, so used the GPS to "answer the phone" as an excuse to stop the cachemobile. Within seconds, bingo, the bus came and the passengers disappeared. We had a previous DNF, so was pleasant to find this one quite quickly this time

Found @ 1245. Nice spot to get out of rain and have lunch. TFTCSL

easy find

On arrival I spotted a muggle couple chatting on a bench. I waited a while in the car but soom made my way to GZ. When I got to GZ I realised the muggles wouldnt be able to see me so off I went, checking the likely spots ,BINGO, second spot I checked.
TFTC

Back again & didn't find. Gps was going everywhere :]

have replaced this one please put it back where and how you found it

Checked this cache and is gone unfortunately as it was obviously found by the graffiti artists who have defiled cache location this was disappointing seeing this! ill replace asap

Owner check needed on this one.

Looked everywhere but this could be a tricky one!! Well hidden!! Will be back in September will try again then

We couldn't find it either, please check.

No good today

DNF in the company of RogWat and coley_babee.
We poked, prodded, climbed and looked all over the structure for the cache.
Maybe it was too hidden for us today, or its gone. (Hoping the former, not the latter.)
Thanks anyways lkgtjm.

We don't normally do playground caches, as old(er) people without kids are normally treated with suspicion by parents with kids.

can't remember my visit date but finally got around to logging. TFTC

We had a hard time finding it. We almost gave up but in the end we saw the little box!

Found with Slink1 on a cold night's caching TNLN TFTC SL

Quick find on a night cache run with TeamDunko TNLN TFTC SL

No one around for once, so we were able to locate this one without being stealthy. Thanks for the cache.

Very good hide.. Manage to found it with Alchemy2.. TFTC

Lovely park here.
Nice find

Another days caching with co-pilot Hazey1 in the area.
Nice quick find on a dull, drizzly day.

TFTC, Joint find with Saulman1010, Nice easy cache. A little bit of climb to get it for us shorter people.

Sent from my mobile device.

Found by ash in 3mins very easy took the 50c and put in a high school musical badge thanks

Hunted everywhere, but no luck
Maybe another day

Found with PZilla. TFTC

Located after a bit of a hunt at 13:15 hrs. Had to wait for the guy who was walking his wolfhound to leave, then some other pedestrian traffic was loitering.....then trying to figure out how NOT to look obvious in retrieving the treasure!!! Signed log, and made a quick escape!!! Many TFTC!

Thanks. Took about 5 mins. Took a badge, and left 50c... lol.
Find #2 for the day

Another nice quick find , while waiting for an evening meeting. Got it back into its right place.. just.. TFTF (Took small domino)

1247 re-logging due to name change

1247 Didn't find it last time and didn't put a DNF 'cos mostly it's just me that can't find them. This time no-one around and did a grid search at the right spot. Found without too much difficulty. TFTC LKGTJM

Clever little hide. Seymour-Mum thought she knew where it was, but couldn't reach. Seymour-Dad to the rescue for high places (or where there might be spiders). Kids too busy playing. Left domino. TFTC The Seymour-Caches

The first cache of a trip to the Snowies. There were muggles but fortunately not at gz where a search of a few minutes had the neatly-hidden cache to hand.Thanks LKTKM

I had failed to find this cache just after it was released last year but today I was not going to leave without it. We lunched in the shelter and while doing that I figured out where it might be hidden and sure enough there it was.
Very nicely done
Thankyou

We bought our lunch rolls down at the bakery and brought them here to eat.
This was a bit of a nemesis cache for feathertop so he was relieved when he finally put his hand on it.
TFTC

Found on the way to the "churchill event" took a little bit of searching but cache was soon in hand.
Nice park.
TFTC SL

On holiday from Tassie. Spent about 1/2 an hour (or more?) looking all around for this one, but I couldn't lay my eyes on it. It must be so cleverly hidden! At least I got some others in the day, as the one I'd searched for the previous day didn't turn up either, I was beginning to think I wouldn't find any mainland caches! Thanks anyway, a nice little park.

Found after meeting up with Monch's Mob and lunch. Took a bit of looking, and Monch Dave found it in a place that squalid Dave had already looked. Thanks for the cache.

Our first cache for the weekend away with squalid, and a big find to yours truly

TNLN TFTC

Find # 782 @ 12:48 and fifth of fifteen finds for the day.
The cache did not reveal itself on the initial scan of the area did so after a slightly more detailed search. Nice hide.
SL Thanks for the cache

Mmm, found the general location quickly enough, the rest took quite a bit looonger. Great spot. Not interrupted by muggles this time. Can't give any other comments as it would give the hide away. Thanks for the cache.

My first find with a GPS. The co ords were very good.
No one around and whats up with the I Love Trams Badge
Thanks

Our second find for the day.

#5 for the day. Stopped for lunch and a coffee in this nice little park. Will have to bring the geokids next time. Had plenty of time to consider the possible hides while having lunch so when the real search began it took all of 30 seconds to find the cache. Nice cammo. TFTC. Kems

gps was a bit flaky but managed to find the cache after a bit of searching, clever hide. great park that i can remember many times playing on when i was a kid, nice to see its still as i remember it.
thanx for bringing me back
cheers

Let the geokids stretch their legs while I stretched mine - and found the cache, althougn it wasn't as quick as this! TNLN TFTH. Elmer!

Nice hide..No muggles today

TFTC

The Woodies

A bit of a stretch to find... but a nice place to stop over on the way home.

Thanks!

After stopping for fuel in town was looking for a quick find.
Made it a bit harder than needed to be. Thanks for the search.

This was cache # 8 of 11 for the day, on our way over to Druin for a 40th birthday party. A nice neat park and a nice quick find, I can see why some may have trouble with this one. My thanks to LKGTJM for the cache.

2256. My brother used to drop his girls at the bus at this very spot ad an uncle lived just over the main road. Been a long time since I've been near here.

TFTC and the memories

Rated: for Overall Experience

Found 13:20, a nice quick find.

TNLN, CSI=1, thanks LKGTJM.

I had a thought at where this one could be and i was right TFTC

Sneaky Little hide! TFTC

TFTC SL a good hide.

Spent a while here, but without success. I assume I'm too short to find it, or else it's been muggled. Thanks anyway LKGTJM.

We had noticed that LKGTJM had made a maintenance visit and had confirmed that the cache was still there so we decided to call in on our way back from Lakes Entrance. This time the cache was found after a very brief search and we couldn't believe how we had missed it last time. Thanks for the cache and for the confirmation that it was still there

checked this and it is still here hidden where i put it
look harder

2009-07-17 17:55 we looked and like crackers didn’t find it This was an obvious spot but we searchedin the dark with torches and still didn't find it. Maybe it should be checked.

This was our first cache on this cold wet winter's day and unfortunately it set the tone for the rest of the day. The skies opened up again as we pulled up close to gz and started our search trying to keep as dry as possible. After half an hour so with no luck we tried a phone a friend option, they confirmed that we had been looking in the right location. We went back for another quick look, still with no luck. Hopefully it was just the wet and cold stopping us from looking properly and that the cache is still safely tucked away

Found @ 3:25pm A nice hide took us a few minutes to find this one, on a trip to the valley. SL

Found after a bit of a hunt around. GPS not playing the game today but the place was fairly obvious. I wrote 16/6 as the date I was there on the cache log but was actually there on 14/4.
Thanks...

Feely decidedly uneasy about the overlooking houses, I tentatively had a go at looking for this one - and lucky for me, I managed to locate it quite quickly! SL at 3pm - seems I missed don55 by 40min here today. Upon cache replacement, I got spotted by a cat sitting in the window of the house adjacent to GZ, but somehow I think the secret should be safe! Thanks once again LKGTJM for the cache. Regards, 38degsouth.

A quick find after some climbing for this vertically challenged cacher !

We found our 4th LKGTJM cache at 4:15pm as the 12th of 19 on our C3K tour. The race was on for this one but I chose the right side first. After Robin Hood, it is even more amazing that Drouin gas not had its own caches till now. Well done on fixing that. Thanks for the cache from D,H,H & A B-A.

Visited at 14:47 on 23 May 09
This one lead us on a merry little chase until logic stepped in and the cache was in hand.
TNLNSL TFTC, find #590 for Echo & Spice.

Cleaning up a few local caches and a quick find in a typical hide for this structure. TKS 4 TC

Finally found this one,I said I would be back.
Found at 1445 hours, no-one in the park today, so made an easy find.
It's a nice angled park.

Called here today, but did not find the cache, even after talking to the owner. Left here and went to owners place and talked to them for hours. Enjoyed the chat, was going to go back and have another look, but time ran out. I need to meet my daughter and look after my grandson, while his dad was in hospital, seeing a doctor.
I will return to find this one. Thanks for the chat.

Found by Mary & David at 1800. Almost dark now, so the torch came out to help in our search, although we didn't need it in the end. Going to be another cold night, but al least it is keeping the muggles indoors. Our thanks to LKGTJM as usual.

Found by Bob at 1510

I haven't been to Drouin for a long time - not since the freeway was built, so it was great to head here and see how things have changed (not too much, although there are the ubiquitous new estates going up around here as they seem to be everywhere else these days). Thankfully, on arriving at GZ, I had the place to myself and had no troubles spotting the well-camouflaged container.

Thanks LKGTJM

Missed this one the other day as there was a lot of muggles around, but today was much quieter. Found with Jyetara

Found at 2.05pm GAFF1. On our way to Moe with our van and we thought we were going to be in for a bit of a search especially with muggles in the vicinity. However we were lucky this time and found the cache in the first spot we looked in this charming little triangle of a park. Thanks LKGTJM.

We expected the worst after reading the previous log but the geo gods must have been smiling because it was an easy find. TNLNSL thanks LKGTJM for the cache.

Arrived @0630, checked all the obvious places, no luck. Lots of muggles about even at this early hour.
Got a hint from Jyetara later as to where it is and I am sure I checked the spot a few times. Hope it's still there.

Found our second LKGTJM Cache for the day, a chance at a FTF in Bunyip brought us up here with Darkvala, so we did a few more while we were up here .. nice easy find today .. no muggles around at all, might have been a different story on a nice sunny day thou ..

Thanks for the cache LKGTJM

Last one for the day, time for tea. TFTC

Found today around 5pm with Jyetara
TFTC nice park , very green!

Well done LKGTJM. Well hidden. Took us a little while to find but soon had it in hand.
Could not find that FTF prize so you can drop it off here anytime.
Thanks
