Due to this cache being "Muggled" several times in the past weeks I have decided to disable it for the time being.
Cache was very exposed on arrival at GZ. SL and placed cache well out of site. TFTC RUSCHIE
This is an area that I have driven past lots but never got around to stopping. Glad I finally made the time. A quick find this one and a good area to explore.
Very interesting little track this one. While there might be parking close to the cache, the roads around here are a rabbit-warren and approaching from Stud/FTG Road I couldn't see an easy way to park close to the cache, so walked through the park a bit. Cache was an easy find once at GZ, but I took the time to look at the sculpture and read the information - even though it was raining at the time. TFTC.
Not a soul about until I went to retrieve the cache then they appeared like flies at a BBQ . Rest the feet for a few mins then managed a safe log signing.
Great park , shame the dog walkers don't do there bit to clean up.

The plan had been to take the newly purchased cachemobile south for a promised repair, then cache my way back home. So much for that; the parts hadn't arrived... oh well, more time for caching.
It's been a nice long day, and I'm expected home for dinner, but there should be enough time for another short walk.
Any hide that honours Oppy is fine by me. The cache was easier to locate than it might have been, as the container and plastic bag were sitting side by side on the ground. Easily fixed.

Having found Ruschie's nearby Horticultural Research cache, I made my here for a second find. The "don't have to leave the trail" had me looking in the wrong location until I did decide to leave the trail by "one step". I then found the cache without trouble at all.
Thanks Ruschie for this cache (and your other one) in this reserve. Without a cache to bring me here, I would never have known that rather nice piece of remnant bushland existed.

Went out on the second cache night run with geo GF to see what we could find !! .Parked close to this one for a quick and easy find ,thanx for the cache RUSCHIE
Found on a walk with Gold Hoboman while Mrs Fluffy is staying in Melbourne with family.
A nice easy find and an opportunity to take some photos! We were careful not to be spotted by passing muggles while signing the log.
Thank you for the cache RUSCHIE!

Came by after orienteering in nearby Knoxfield. Nice park. I'll have to come back with a bike. Cache in reasonable condition. Bag can no longer be sealed and log is nearly full. TFTC.
Wow, I am so full of admiration for Oppy's achievement. Was this guy Superman in disguise or what? Thanks for the smiley and the story.
I'm a bit of a paper hog but hopefully the next Cacher will forgive me as I have left a well sought after pathtag, you may take it only if you log it
Well, 3yo geo-sons play group was cancelled. Teachers are on strike so I have 7yo geo-niece and 12yo geo-step daughter today. A windy day in the hills today so I figured it might be best to just stay inside. Then the electricity goes off! With no TV and no Internet this makes a recipe for some serious restlessness! Then 3yo geo-son pipes up "Let's go geocaching!" He didn't need to ask me twice, so we headed into the burbs where there weren't so many large ominous trees. Found three out of four before heading home to find a large tree had come crashing down over the road out the front of our house, so after puting geo-son down for his nap I headed out to have some fun with my chainsaw!
Nice easy find, spotted by geo-stepdaughter! Geo-niece was really getting into this treasure finding business by now!

A quick find @ 23:50 in the company of Emeraldflame. This is a nice park certainly worth a daytime visit.

Found it! A quick find after finding the nearby cache. I enjoyed walking along the bike paths through the parkland. TFTC SL
Easy find on a wet outing. Good bit of history whilst Le Tour is on. TNLNSL TFTC
had to return with a pen so I could sign log. Didn't bring the dogs the second time. Thanks I liked this one
Find # 3593 and 5th of the day @ 2:00pm. I had to come to this side of town to get a mobility hoist fitted to the carfor my wife so I bought my bike along and decided to find a few caches while the work was being done. Easy ride-by, TNLN, Left my mark in the log, Thanx Ruschie....
Nice one! Thanks for helping us enjoy a lovey reserve in the burbs. Forgot to take a pen tho...
Nice bit of bush in here. We didn't stay long though, as the weather was changing for the worst. TFTC
Went for a pleasant walk at lunchtime to find the two caches in this park. Thanks for reminding me of Oppy's effort as I had wrongly assumed the cache name to be a pun.

Found this cache after a couple of minutes looking, i didnt sign the log as i didnt have a pen on me at the time so i will come back another day and sign. TFTC TNLF
found it while on my walk it was dark and hard to see so i didn't open it or check the contents. will return another time.
4/5 on a bike ride.
Arriving at the GZ there was a muggle tying his shoelace. After he left it was an easy find. The hint was cleaverly done!
TFTC! Find #85

A quick find after tea. Might have to come back here during the day to have a look around and ride the track. Thanks for bringing us here and for the cache.
Ok I must admit.... I didn't find this one, my muggle friend did! But I'll claim it anyways!!! SL TFTC
Had a nice walk in the park.
Grabbed the three caches in the area.

We have done caches back in our home SA in Oppy's home town so interesting to see all these references around here. A great little park that we enjoyed strolling around.

Found quickly while here to move on the frog cache. I can see why this would confuse people. At least one person signed the wrong cache. Thanks RUSCHIE, I wish I had some time to explore.
i was alittle confused. i found two at once.
but i picked the right one to open.
i persume the other one is for the other group of aussie caches.
ive heard alot about frogs lately.[:x]

Apart from dodging a few Muggles and their K9's, it was an easy find.
Thanks for bringing me to this nice park.

Racing to find one more before a Sunday afternoon appointment. This was a nice placement and my youngest was just the right size for a fast find. TFTC SL

Found with Irontoad and a new cacher today. This was interesting as we had done another Oppy cache earlier in the day. Great record to have. Took nothing, left nothing and signed log.

Thanks for the stroll... this park didn't exist when I was growing up around here 30 years ago.
I so took the hint literally! Stared at the drain for ages - doesn't the water in the toilets turn left?

An appropriate cache to find on the eve of Cadell Evan's winning the 2011 Tour de France. This was one of the few times I left the geomobile without a scribble stick in my pocket, and it was one of the few times that I needed to supply my own scribble stick - a quick dash back to the geomobile solved the problem.
Visiting a number of travellers for the miles.
Thanks for the cache RUSCHIE.

A great winters day out with City of Knox district scout leaders.
Our first find for the day. I'll need to take more notice of the size legend, lol.

This is a fantastic reserve, and one that I would never have known existed.
With the drizzly weather, there were no problems with muggles today. Found the cache in a nice logical spot, and then headed off for a pleasant walk to the other cache in the reserve. Thanks for the cache.

No. 99 and a great easy find. A great place to sign the log nearby as well. Lots of muggles but this is so easy to grab and return that they aren't a problem. TFTC. SL.

Nice and quiet area. Is it always like this, or were we just lucky today? Parked the car nearby and walked up to the cache. Pinged it straight away!
