It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result 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, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am 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 28 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 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

I keep checking up on this one since I live nearby, and I have no doubt that this cache is gone. Needs to either be replaced, or the listing archived.
 
04-May-14
The afternoon was very dark and gloomy so after dropping off my daughter at a birthday party 15 minutes away and not wanting to hang around with a group of grade 3 and 4 girls I headed out into the dark, stormy and 'raining on and off' weather.
I arrived to notice the long list of DNF's but since I was just filling in time and it wasn't actually raining in this area I stopped anyway. I looked at every area matching the hint in about a 25-30m radius around GZ but also found nothing.
Thanks megabogan for the cache, the hunt and the fun.
 
03-May-14
With a difficulty of 1.5, and no finds for a year and after 8 DNF's in a row now, I think it needs checking.
 
21-Apr-14
Could not find, seems to be gone.
 
11-Apr-14
logs seem to indicate its gone, please check
 
09-Apr-14
Not found, previous logs tell a story
 
25-Jan-14

05-Jan-14
Seems to of been moved or lost
 
05-Jan-14
Couldn't find it during the day. Needs to be checked
 
03-Jan-14
Couldn't find after about 45minutes, May need a maintenance check as it has not been found for quite some time.

Couldn't find it during the night, will go back during the day Smile

Found today while out and about with the Geodog. Nobody was around to interfere with our search so it was just a matter of elimination before the cache was found. Signed log. Thanks for the cache megabogan.
 
07-Feb-13
Nice container, more of these please !!! Smile
 
04-Feb-13
Walked straight up to it. Good location.
 
03-Feb-13
Bit of a strange park this one, lots of open areas, sand and other strange stuff, rather than the more usual grass and trees or even wetlands found at most urban parks, some interesting play equipment too. Bike was repaired and ready for use, so this cache made a nice cycle on a sunny, but not too hot day. The neat cache container was easily found once at GZ, log signed before the return journey home. TFTC.
 
02-Feb-13
Found at 1958hrs by Peter & Marian in the company of friendly Muggles,Bill and Robyn.
Out on a caching afternoon, aiming for the Berwick Springs Hotel for dinner, and more
Geocaching on the way home. 6th of 10, the shire have made this a very nice park, a nice stroll to GZ,
a quick find log signed, inspected the adventure playground very impressed, thanks "megabogan for the cache.

19-Jan-13
On our way home from a belated Xmas family gathering, decided to mark the occasion with our 100th find, to round off a lovely day! A few muggles wandering around this evening but no-one took the slightest bit of notice of us. A relatively quick find, in a great container, the likes of which we hadn't seen before. Thanks for the hide, the find, and the fun off hitting our 100th Smile

Nice and easy find had to watch out for muggles
 
05-Jan-13
What a great suburban park!
 
01-Jan-13
Took too long to find it, could have been a dud gps tracking, could also be that the hint wasn't obvious enough...
 
23-Dec-12
Turned this cache into a quick drive by because it's just too bloody hot but it would be nice to come back and investigate further in the future.
Nice container, quick find.
Thanks for bringing me here megabogan

KTCvic ventured out on a Gippsland Gallop today rounding up approximately 40 caches. What a fantastic day it was too, as we were able to soak up some rays as well as the views, as we made our way eventually to Cape Patterson.

As we headed towards this cache we went through the playground, at which Kay had to try her hand at rock climbing, we then went down towards GZ, Kay on one side Tee on the other, yay for Tee he was on the right side!! Cache was found, signed then replaced before we headed back on the road for more caches

31-Aug-12
Found this cache in early August but forgot to log it when I got home! Was a great hide that nearly had us giving up, the clue came in handy and managed to find it in the end. Had to be quite careful as there was a lot of activity at the park nearby.

Easy find. Was expecting a smaller container.
 
06-Aug-12
Started raining, nearly gave up, but in the end we found it. Good hiding spot.
 
03-Aug-12
I was just about to give up on this one, damn iPhone just isn't precise enough when I spotted 'something' that didn't look quite right. I investigated that 'something' and Bingo! I had the cache. Smile If that container isn't waterproof, I don't know what would be. Big Grin That park is much larger than I thought it was. I've driven past it hundreds of times but never took a closer look. Thanks for bringing me here. SL.

Nice hide in a great park TFTC LS
 
09-Jul-12
After much searching found a container being sold as "water tight" that would suit this cache that doesn't look like it can be left open like the last few have clearly been. (By the way a properly closed sistema container floats!!!)
New log included but no swaps
 
08-Jun-12
I think this one needs some reviewer attention. Multiple NM logs going back 18 months mention a major dampness problem that comes from placing the cache in a wetland drain. The issue has never been properly resolved by the CO who seems to have abandoned the cache - see the photo attached my log to see the present condition of the cache.
 
27-Apr-12
Container full of water, couldn't sign log.
 
27-Apr-12
Container filled with water, needs attention!!!
 
21-Apr-12
Cache is in a creek bed. Sistema container is waterlogged, muddy inside and logbook is mush.
 
21-Apr-12
Quick find, glad you brought me here, it's a nice park. But the container is full of mud and water, and paper mush. Couldn't sign the logbook but took a photo of it as proof.
 
04-Mar-12
Lot of rain the last few days so this was completely swamped. Emptied water out and retuned... This cache needs a water proof container... Would be a good find in dry weather... Thanks anyway but serious maintenance required...
 
19-Feb-12
Found with a friend introducing us to caching
 
19-Feb-12
Found but too wet to sign, wouldn't want the mints

The good old boring Sistema container seems to be holding up to the task! Good new(ish) dry logbook. Nice big park this. Thanx megabogan. There is now a bear in there!
 
07-Oct-11
Cache # 878
The hardest post about this one was finding a way in and then parking. They just don't think you need to park around here.
Cache was in very good condition. Took coin.
Thanks for the cache.
 
03-Oct-11
Nice easy cache log book brand new
 
03-Oct-11
After the recent rains the area looks great, unfortunately it would seem that the container was a little to tricky for some to close properly.

Change of container - back to the good old boring Sistema container - hopefully future cachers will take the time to close this one.

Dropped of a Geocoin too
 
30-Sep-11
No2 find. This was a good one. It was hidden between two rocks..by a little rock. Unfortunately the plastic bag was full of water from the creek.
 
24-Sep-11
The cache is absoultely soaked.

After last nights aborted effort for night time caching (having a bad cold and all) I decided to get out and about today and get some fresh air into my lungs. The problem of course now is where to start. All caches from home are now some distance and after last nights effort I was concerned with caches in Berwick coming up as DNF. But I tried again and had a very successful job of it in Berwick, Officer and Pakenham. After a stroll through log knee high clover I got to GZ and a cache was soon signed. The contents were a little wet but the log was ok. Thanks mega (I promise last of yours for this day's caching).
 
28-Jul-11
Cache full of water, log damp. Was able to write but only just. Pen was tearing paper. Nice hide TFTC
 
09-Jul-11
Last one for the day and a nice easy find at 15:15. The insides are a little moist but you can still write on the logsheet easily enough. These parklands in the new estates are very nice Smile.

TNLNSL, although our BYO pen geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks again megabogan.

Cache was full of water. However log is somewhat dry......in time may become damp.

Nice ezi find.

nice little wander to find a very sneaky cache!!!

thankfully the day was cold and wet, so there were very few people around the park, so we didn't look too strange hanging around, but we probably did look strange hanging around in the wet and cold.

headed straight to GZ and found the cache.

Found in the company of coley_babee.
Not many people using this reserve today, not too sunny really.
Ground still a little damp around.
Cache was well hidden.
Thanks again megabogan.
 
25-Apr-11
Nice find. Nothing to swap so my kids put in 2 dice for the next person. Thank you
 
24-Apr-11
Well this was my first ever, took the kids and we had a great time.
 
22-Apr-11
Our fourth find for the day, our aim was to pop 200 on a particular puzzle cache today so our course had to be plotted out in advance.
This one took a bit to find, when we eventually found it the container wasn't shut and the log is damp but writeable. A quick sign of the log before returning it to its hide and off to the playground for a play before heading off for the next cache.
Thanks for the cache megabogan Smile

A quick find as well as a nice simple hide.

Long weekend! Monday off work! There really is only one thing to do, so LouiseAnn and I decided it was time to attempt to break our number of caches in one day record. This was our first cache of the day. After much debating and deliberation during the week (when we probably should have been working) we agreed the Lynbrook / Narre Warren area was cache rich enough to support a big day. Also, neither of us have been caching out here before so we wouldn’t have the problem of clashing with caches that only one of us had found before. This was cache number twelve of thirty for the day. What would have been a very nice walk through a very nice park was some what ruined by the aroma being blown from the, obviously, very close and up wind rubbish dump. Found cache without any trouble. The cache is in good order. Thanks for the cache, megabogan.

Geat spot easy find with cams help tftc

This was our twelfth cache find of the day. Pathfinder24 and I decided to break our record of number of finds in one day (previously 15, we made it to 30 in the end!). We picked the Lynbrook and Narre Warren area, because it looked like there would be a lot of caches close together in this area. Unfortunately this large open park was suffering from proximity to the tip today, but the locals didn't seem to mind as there were a few people around clearly enjoying the day. We had no trouble finding the cache and signed the log before returning the cache to it's hiding place. Thanks for the cache megabogan (great name by the way Wink)
