Cache would appear to have been abandoned - taking the next step and de-listing - sorry.

If the CO can't do me the courtesy of responding to my enquiry, then I have no choice but to assume there is no longer any interest by the CO in this placement and they have abandoned the cache.

If there are components or remnants of the cache and you haven't already done so, please return to the GZ and collect the cache (or remnants). We don't want to litter our environment with Georubbish.

New cache has been made, just need to get there to replace! Will do ASAP

Cache needs to be replaced

Also a DNF for me.
 
01-May-17
A very disappointing DNF.
 
12-Apr-17
Container is wet and all the contents areTFTC
 
06-Apr-17
Unfortunately no TB in cache today & the unmentionable is almost fully detached from the lid of the container. We replaced carefully so as not to dislodge it any further.
 
06-Apr-17
I thought we would make the most of the weather today and take the kids for a walk through Nanna's extended backyard (her house backs on to Gresswell). I knew there were a couple of caches located within & the boys decided that they only wanted to find one cache - this was the lucky one. We took our time, strolling to GZ & once there, the boys quickly located the hide. TNLNSL. TFTC!!!

Nice easy one. Left TB. Tftc

Saw one roo on our way to this roo-cache at around 630pm. A lovely reserve!
 
On a little day trip out to see some animals. Unfortunately La Trobe Sanctuary was closed because of flooding, but I still had a nice walk in Gresswell and found a few caches as well. TFTC.
 
03-Jan-17
Excellent walk around Gresswell. Have done all 3 now. Kids are happy out Cache number is going up. TFTC
 
13-Nov-16
On the way to the cache I spotted nesting and sleeping boxes for birds, arboreal marsupials and bats. What a great place. Tftc.
 
10-Nov-16
TFTC, last time I was here I was listening to Mr Amphibia, Gerry M, giving a lecture on guess what. Check the name, they go croak and if there's lots of them it might be indicative of a healthy environment.
 
03-Sep-16
Second find of the morning. This cache made for a great stroll, through a nice reserve. Kids took a few items, but put lots of swag into the cache. Re-hid and all appears well with the hide. Thanks for taking us to the park.
 
14-Aug-16
Thanks. Great job. Well done.
 
25-Jul-16
Lovely spot. Cheers

I had put options to the family, of which activities would be nice to persue on such a lovely winter day. Some were knocked back, right off the bat, but this little park with "it has wild animals " and "it's not too far away" in its favour was the one that was more readily accepted- although I noted an undisguised narrowing of eyes when the "GC" word was mentioned. We parked and navigated through the little gate, which was a novelty for all participants. We walked with the park notes PDF open as a map, as the trails didn't show on my groundspeak app. This meant going in and out of both my iBooks app and groundspeak app to correlate between the two but it was doable. The first Roos we came across took us completely by surprise and I excitedly took photos. Then there were more, and more, and more... This is a park that keeps on giving on the fauna front.

We found this cache complete visible from the path so I left it with a lot more cover. The kids took random things and I replaced them with equally random things. We set off again to find more Roos and more caches

Maybe I should of read the parking instructions before hand, I was on the wrong side, and couldn't find a gate in, [:x]
 
11-Jun-16
Found while walking around this beautiful reserve while visiting a friend for her birthday. It was late afternoon and we were lucky to see about a dozen kangaroos! Took a TB but no sign of the second one that was supposed to be there. SL TFTC
 
28-May-16
Lots of bark lying about. Good hide. Not to far from walking track. Thanks to the owner.
 
14-May-16
Just dropped a Bart Simpson's Tour travel bug after having it with me for far too long.

The cache is in good order despite the flash flooding in the area earlier in the year.
 
09-May-16
That was a little unpleasant. Smile What a remarkable reserve this is. And I did indeed see roos; strictly very young ones, interestingly. It had just been raining while I was there and a broad shallow stream was gushing through the area. I dropped a trackable [The Key to the Mystery] then noticed its owner has himself visited quite recently. Thanks bubblzdee!
 
18-Apr-16
Parked in Omeara Place and walked in from there to get another Cache, so continued down the track to get this one as well. Street is very narrow so dont use it if you have a big 4x4.
The Cammo has come loose and is now just sitting in place. The Cache itself was uncovered so I partially covered it again when I had finished. TFTC. Nice park.

Found by Riley Smile
 
27-Mar-16
Nice walk in and around the Grange. TFTC.
 
24-Mar-16
After a few minutes of looking around the wrong tree I checked my coordinates and found quickly after TFTC
 
19-Mar-16
It was rather a dour day and I couldn't convince any member of the family to venture out with me so I ventured out for an afternoon of solo caching. A quick find. TNLN. TFTC.
 
06-Feb-16
Walking along Salt Creek Track I was amazed at the damage that the recent rain has done. There is lots of evidence of the force of the moving water. At GZ I spotted the cache from the track. After signing the log I re-hide the cache as per the description. The only wildlife that I saw today were a few small skinks. TFTC
 
30-Jan-16
Easy i think it got a bit washed away by the rain
 
30-Jan-16
We found a slug with it :0)
 
24-Jan-16
I looked at the container and it was easily seen when in the area but it is hard to find the area.
 
26-Dec-15
Found after a night of rain which made this place even more amazing.
little streams running past, amazing birds and the fresh smell of damp bush.
I have travelled past this place years ago for many years but never stopped.
Geo caching draws you out of your car into places that you would otherwise ignore.
I have many family members who live close by and would never know this exists.
No one else around today just me makes it more special
thanks for putting this cache here
rains had washed off some of the cover
I have recovered it nice touch with the camo.
 
29-Nov-15
First cache we found. Member since 2007 but last time we tried geocaching we didn't end finding any. Found 3 tonight, I'm thinking this could get addictive...

Been here a number of times but first time as a cacher. Very beautiful park expecially in a suburban area. Heard a number of birds around was worried about snakes but saw none today. Cache was uncovered but still took a while because i decided to look on the wrong side of the track. Once i got on the right side very easy find. Re burried. TFTC
 
28-Sep-15
Nice.
 
18-Sep-15
Found with Geo-Dad (SirJ-Oz)

I like the caching, but not so much the logging. SirJ-Oz is logging all my old finds.

Thanks for the cache bubblzdee

Find #2115. Found @ 19:19 with simonhawdon (and family members)

I met up with a friend for a walk in the park with his family, and a cache or two.

After seeing a bunch of roos on dusk, we continued on around the park. By this time it was dark and we were using torches. This is my excuse for missing spying the cache on the first go around the GZ region. It was a quick find after that.

The object inferred by the cache title has become unattached from the cache container, so could possibly do with a smidgen of TLC.

Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables.
Thanks for the cache bubblzdee

Time: 1:57 pm

After finding another one nearby, this was a speedy find.
All was well, except the unmentionable has become detached from the box, and it's now just sitting on the lid.
Thanks for placing this cache bubblzdee

Hilarious surprise when found! Good cache lots of trinkets!
 
29-Jan-15
After finding the nearby Wildlife Cache I headed out for this one, with the aim of getting four in this vicinity. I finally found my way back to a track and then went down a few wrong tracks before I got to the right one.

Didn't take long to find the hide and, I did laugh when I realised what the 'camouflage' was (it's come loose, by the way).

TNLN. TFTC.

Hhhaaaahhaaa Zahleh. Yes i did think it was real. In my defense it looked real.. Smile. Great find and another joint find with Zahleh. Again no trackable...sssoooo ssaaadddd.. TFTC. It was nice to share the track with our hopping friends.

TFTC, cache in trash out Smile The roos came and checked us out!
 
24-Nov-14
Made me laugh. The log was fairly damp but it was a nice sunny day and i found a nearby clearing to dry it out for 15 minutes. Managed to finish replacing it before about 100 school kids walked past. Cool PHEW!!
 
03-Nov-14
TFTC! Pity the original camo was missing but still nicely hidden.
 
03-Nov-14
Found! Thanks for the very helpful directions in the description. I think the intended camo is missing off the top of the cache, not that it mattered- a great little hide with a few nice swaps inside. No TBs to be found. Lovely spot, hadn't been here before. Tftc Smile
 
02-Nov-14
Quick find on a gorgeous Sunday morning. TFTC
 
20-Oct-14
After doing nearby cache, this was only a short hop through the bush to search for about 6 minutes as once again gps would not settle, cache was found in an unexpected place , almost stood on it. Only one tb in cache so I took it, other 2 missing. TFTC
 
19-Oct-14
Log wet but nonetheless there. Took gc & dropped tb. Found with Bolaris.

Find #526

This was our last stop in the lovely park. Made our way along the tracks towards this one keeping an eye out for wildlife. Didn't see any roos today but me say some birds and could hear the frogs. Under a bit of time pressure by this stage so fortunately it didn't take too long before the cache was in hand. Took the TB to move on and visited a couple of others. Thanks for the cache bubblzdee. A lovely location to visit but a morning of mixed success with 3 finds and 3 DNFs. Had to leave it at that as it was naptime for Geobaby.

Picked this one for my 100th and to drop off TB after taking it for a weekend in the Redcastle state forest. TNLTB. TFTC.

Cache could do with some re-painting so it can be hidden as it was intended, "cammo" is also very loose and needs attention.

MasterIschi and Arthur and Dent went on another epic cache run. We collected 17 of 20 caches including a multi caches during our 20 km journey. We want to thank all cache owners: we had a great time out here.

MasterIschi spotted it right away and wanted to give a FunPoint (FP). Since he isn't a Premium Member, we give the FP ...

Thought the bananas knew what they were looking for and hence have been discouraged for such a long time.
But interesting fact.
Wombat poo cubes so it doesn't roll. And closer examination here shows more cubes. Or boxes anyway.
In wonderful condition (although missing a little black paint) the girl from Brisbane should sleep comfortable that many will be deterred from attacking this treasure.
It was the thought of "treasure" that was easy to put behind us
Thanks bubblzdee and I see you now have plenty of other things occupying your mind other than this sport.
But you memories in Melbourne still remain good.
Thanks.
