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.

No luck for us today. Most cachers seem to have found it easily enough, so perhaps the owner should check it out. We searched for quite some time. We looked at the hint, but it's not a great deal of help since the object referenced can not be unambiguously identified, at least not without finding the cache first.
Anyway - nice place - thanks Gumnut Babies.

Temporarily disabling this until we can get someone to go and check things out. Hopefully it won't be long before we can get this going again.

Good search. No find today. Back soon.

Not quite a DNF @ 15:45, although I didn't find it. I was here for about 20 minutes and I was running out of time to pick up the family and couldn't seem to get into the swing of locating this one. Many muggles using the path and I felt quite exposed during my search. Normally I would have stuck around and given it a good couple of coats of looking for, but I had to leave. I'll flag it for a return visit.

Quick find. TFTC.

Easy

This cache seemed very exposed when I fond it. Could do with some black paint or something. A nice size cache. TFTC

Quick find on a nice sunny walk at lunch. TFTC SL

Our very first cache!!! Now we are a geofamily. Kids thoroughly enjoyed finding cache and rumaging through it.

A first find for some very enthusiastic new geokids!!

A quick duck down into the cache GZ to avoid muggles and their dogs. Made the quick find, TFTC!

The cache was guarded by a black cat and a sprayer weilding maintenance muggle.

Found it nice area didn't no this park was there. Thanks for the cache

After an enjoyable visit to the Old Melbourne Gaol in the morning, I thought it was time to locate some geocaches. A nice walk and fairly quick find in a good area. SL TFTC

# 2221 @ 11:40 TNLNSL

Very easy find as it was partly exposed and easy to see in the daylight. I rehid it a little better as well.

Thanks Gumnuts Babies

20:10. No.2 with CamBendy. This turned out to be a big container which explains why it's hard to hide. Did the best we could. TNLNSL. TFTC.

Found @ 8:10pm
2nd of 12 finds on night cache run with Physics Teacher
7th of 18 for the day!

A quick drive to this one after a false start at another cache due to inconsiderate muggles having a function.

Large find with plenty of swaps available, so this would be a good one to bring the geokids to find.

Took a little finding tonight as the rain had set in for a bit by now. Cache had been well camo'd by josiey after her find, so kudos goes there.

This container could probably use a bit of 'de-emphasisation of its natural colour' to make it easier to re-hide in future.

A good experience overall, despite the efforts of the rain.

Very dark at night - lucky I had my headlamp. Cache was extremely exposed so I tried to camo it up a little.

Team Mornington was here today on a cold drizzly caching day in the area.
Hazey1, Biger12, Geobrat2000 and myself teamed up to take advantage of the school holiday freedom.
Swapped TB's

TFTC, a nice quick trad. Team Morno: Biger12, Geobrat2000, Saulman1010 and Myself

Found with Kmace at the end of a VERY succesful caching day. Spotted quickly by me which perplexed Kmace as she had been here previously and not found. ( it was very dark apparently)
left keyring and took ninja turtle

Found with Irontoad as the light was fading on a semi successful caching day though the wind was blowing a gale.

I had previously looked for this cache but was caught out by the fading light and not having the clue with me was unsuccessful at finding it. This time it was found quite easily. Took ninja turtle and left lobster.

Thanks gumnut babies for the cache. Park is well worth coming to.

Nice quick find on cold winters day caching.
Signed log, TFTC

Nice walk Neat hide

My first cache. Found with the kids on a nice sunny afternoon. Took plane & octopus. Left turtle & sticky feet. TFTC.

A short walk in the park, cache found and logged. Copper Boom TB dropped off. TFTC

found with tilla83 and smrff78 #226 @3:02 PM tftc

Tilla83 found with geozilla oz tftc 3/5/11 @ 15:03

Saw that Bonzo was visiting and went down to pick him up

easy find. geokids found it. took bookmark and theodore. replaced it with an elephant and little miss chatterbox. [:x]

Found @ 14.20, took tenis ball, left TB, TFTC, SL

Cache found. Was half buried under a pile of sticks. Jamie left a monkey torch and took a small pink keyring diary. Re-buried in hole and covered more thoroughly with sticks.

Happy Easter! The geo-kids found it

Well hid from muggles...

well hidden, you wouldn't know it was there if you walked past it everyday, nice stuff inside too, didn't take any though TFTC

21/03/2011 20:24 Found: #338 On the way to Clock club I decided to get this 2nd cache as it was so close to the Simpson cache just collected. I was already late for the meeting but thought 'what the hell' . Had to use the compass to locate GZ as it was quite dark with many trees around. Found the cache not really covered at all! I guess that this spot is hard enough to get to so its safe to leave pretty exposed like that. I grabbed the bucket and went back to the path to sign. Ended up nearly taking an eye out trying to relocate GZ to replace it. Dug the hole out a bit more and covered it with more camo. TFTC TNLN SL

Found at 1430. Quick easy find. No-one around. Cache was a little exposed. SL TNLN Recovered cache TFTC

My Daughter and I foudn this one. It has lots of swaps in it so she was very happy. Found easy enough as it was partially exposed, so covered it up a little harder - still easy enought to stand out for a regular cache hunter. LOTS of muggles.. everywhere.. Had to wait about 10 minutes for a clear shot at the cache. Left an octopus and took a mini doll thingy. TFTC SL

Chief spotted the camo without too much trouble and soon had the log signed. TFTC

TFTC SL

Easy find, no muggles about at 18:40, though the orb spider whose web I wrecked wasn't happy with me! Added some more camo so isn't visible from the path. Good to have a good size urban cache. TNLNSL TFTC

Found with AWegs. 11/16 today..

Found with Scotttiew.

Found @0930 #247
Quick find which was a little too exposed, so sign log and added a bt more camo.
Not too many Muggles at this time but they were still about.
9th find this morning on this cache run, before the 40° heat hits. I reckon it must have been 30° by this stage.

This cache is indeed close to a home ... there was some construction work happening today. TFTC

Quick easy find with RollaB. #12 of 17 for the day. TFTC.

20:10 Found it - though we aren't kids, we are at heart so we thought it'd be OK TFTC Signed log, took nothing, left sig.

A quick pick up this afternoon, thanks gumnut babies

Found by rrajie's hubby. Second of 7 caches today.

Beautiful little slender park. Thought the cache looked a bit open, so we hid it a bit better. Took badge, left die, signed log. TFTC!!

Thanks for the nice and easy cache! We didn't have a pen or pencil so we couldn't write a log... ?

Easy find with Vicki. I think we solved Paul_the_Hippy's question about why such a large cache hadn't been muggled...A dog had pooed nearby producing a strong muggle-repelling malodour. Watch your step, fellow cachers!
Thanks for the cache, Gumnut Babies.

#143 for us, found on a morning stroll in the company of mc_retro jr and the fuzzygems. Nice little park here and a good spot for a hide. As a couple of the kids went looking, I spotted the uncovered cache from the path. The lid was off and we wondered if we'd find anything there, but it all appeared in good order. Looks like someone may have rifled through it, as the logs were not in the bags, but apart from that, all was well. The kids admired the swaps (we TNLN) while I did the admin and the cache was replaced, hopefully a little better hidden. Muggles appeared down the track aways just as juc_jr#2 emerged from the undergrowth. Sometimes kids are handy to have around !

TFTC

Nice quick find TFTC

A nice quick find where I was a bit worried I would be too close to the building workers on the nearby roof, but fortunately the trees were in the right spot to give me some cover while finding and logging at 11:40am and they didn't notice me. I have been in this park before for a previous cache that I think is gone now, but had a real deja vu feeling as I saw the playground and walked into GZ.
TNLN
thanks gumnut babies

Its always nice a find a larger cache box, but sometimes you are left wondering how it hadn't been muggled yet. Took Ozzie TB, left nothing. TFTC. Nice walking track.

What a great location for a cache. The parkland was beautiful and the choice of location most excellent - such a lovely big cache too with a a little bower built all around it Thanks for bringing us here and for your cool, well stocked cache.

Out and about in the area so thoght a quick sneaky geo cache was in order. TNLN, TFTC.

#363 Weather threatening but after waiting in the car til the first downpour passed it held off just long enough to do the deed before it started again. Nice walk through here and enough cover at GZ to avoid the gaze of passing muggles. Cache was rather obvious as it wasn't covered very well - pity it isn't painted a dark colour. Camo'd it as best I could but the elements will no doubt expose it again. At least it's in an area that isn't likely to be visited by other than cachers. TN, left Ozzy TB. Thanks Gumnut Babies.

Found it on a beautiful Melbourne afternoon. Luckily we managed to evade the muggles. TFTC

this cache was really easy to find beacause it was visible

Located today, although not logged until 29/11/2011.
Many thanks for the cache.

TFTC - Container wasn't hidden and a bit too obvious when we arrived. Left Mother Russia and took Badge.

Found with bogonghazy.
Sounds like the cache isn't hidden the way it originally was, but it is only visible when you go looking for it, so should be safe. I wish my 3yo had been here today because she would have loved it. Thanks gumnut babies

Found today in the company of Reesylou.
Nice little walk from the car here, which was a good change from a few of the previous ones today.
Bucket was exposed as though it was an egg in a nest, nice touch, and it is still well hidden from the path.
My thanks to the Gumnut Babies for this terrific little cache, TNLNSL.

just got a new travel bug and am using it to calculate distance

What a lovely day for the walk thru the parkland. GOYA

Out with my mate Blacklegend17 (Marshy) for a night cache run. Found after a bit of scratching around. TFTC.

Another night find with my good caching mate Marty (Quasar3671). Did a bit of scratching around for this one before Marty located it quite out in the open. TFTC.

Found on Grand Final day on a walk with Designk and the kids. Thanks!

Found at 4:30 pm on a quiet Grand Final afternoon. The co-ordinates downloaded to my GPSr by computer where not correct - but luckily we had a paper printout - and the cache was soon in hand. Found with melliejc and the kids. SL.

I found this cache at 17:45 while I was on my way home from an event cache earlier today.
TFTC TNLN SL

Nice work girls! We have tidied up your hiding spot so it is nice and secure.

Quick find on the way home.
TFTC - a nice bigish cache - wish I'd brought some swaps.

Nice area with lots of muggles out and about today TNLN TFTC

Tristan the Travel Turtle Tag (TTQWTC) has come for a flying visit back in time.

catching up on a backlog of caches since my laptop died. going to take a while

My vocal impression of a bat wasn't even close - lucky I wasn't attracting them, I probably would've freaked out!

Cache was found without too much trouble tonight.

Thanks Gumnut Babies for this cache.

Bats were overhead as we got this cache
Found with Coley_babee, Rog & Diala

We were watching the bats fly overhead when we were heading into the area. found cache quickly, my second attempt!!

A nice easy find in this pretty park. Took coin. TFTC

Quick dash into the bushes
Keeping low while muggles walk by
and hoping not to be spotted
placed a geocoin into cache

Have been meaning to do this cache for ages and today I had a bit of time to spare before a TAFE class at Box Hill. There were a few muggles around in the playground, luckily GZ is away from that. Found without difficulty, TFTC.

Nice park

In Melbourne for 2 days from Auckland (NZ) and had to do some caching. Took my sister and her husband out for some night caching to find this one. Quick easy find at GZ. TFTC

Visiting a friend in the area for dinner so decided to leave early and do a few caches before hand.
TFTC

We had a small string of dog walking muggles that had to go past before we could dash into the bushes for this great sized cache. Nice little park.
Thanks, Robmc.

It was great to see such a large cache so near to the path in this busy park.
Had to wait our chance here as the two of us lurking in the bushes here would surely draw attention.

nice spot a easy find

Found easily today, Cache was rather exposed so covered it a bit better SL TFTC TNLN

When I found this cache as part of the p-boro team I did not have my own account yet. Now I am logging the caches which I actively found.We didn't think the walk would take so long, but we found the cache even though it was already dark.
Thanks from GOpard

It was already dark, but we found the cache. Where is the creek?
suntu

Close to home 'tis. It was already getting dark when we got to gz, but found the cache nevertheless. It isn't exactly 'hidden', so didn't dare to leave any coins.

A great location. Something for everyone. Finished off with play in the park and some boomerang throwing in the park across the road. TNLN. TFTC.

This would be a good one to bring the kids back to. Not too hard when you are in the right spot! I really need to upgrade my GPS to something that works better under the trees...
