I cannot see any information that suggests to me that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement, therefore I have no option but to archive the listing.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the next 28 days, just contact a reviewer (by email and include **GC Number and Cache Name**) and, assuming it still meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

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 Geotrash.

Should you wish to replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Beautiful place to hide it! Was tricky for a few minutes, hope the ducks don't steal it
 
25-Mar-16

Visiting a friend who lives nearby I stopped to grab a few caches. This one had me searching for a long time before I checked the hint. I had the right idea but just needed to widen my search. Thanks for bringing me to this interesting spot.
 
25-Oct-15
Lovely walk out this way. Signed the log on a tiny spot left but the log book is chokers full! Not visible from the boardwalk /path had to feel around for it. Coords were spot on! Tftc
 
25-Oct-15
After 2 dnf we feared it was gone, but after we thought it was muggled we found the cage in good condition. Tftc!

Like the last 2 users we couldn't find this cache, looked under the boardwalk and the bridge with no joy Sad
 
30-Sep-15

Four sets of eyes did not succeed at finding this one.
 
11-Jul-15
We went in the evening and it was dark so took us a little while to find it. Awesome, great spot and find Smile
 
05-Jul-15
Very cold and windy day but it was still fun.
 
04-Jul-15
After the 50th birthday I had to kill sometime before a friend will be home so decided again caching is in order. After a longer hunt than expected I soon had the prize in hand. The cords are a little off but after expanding the search area it was light work.
Tftc tnln sl
 
29-Jun-15
It's a tuff one!!
 
14-Jun-15
Searched extensively where it should have been with no luck, possibly muggled?
 
23-May-15
Nice lake. Nice walk
 
17-May-15
Another one today off my DNF list, I was sure I had searched in this place when I was here last time. Thanks for the cache Smile
 
07-May-15
Heading home to WA tommorow, after a short visit I had to make sure to find this cache as it was the closest to my parents house... Went for a walk just before dark with my Sister & niece, the heavens opened & we got a drenching in the freezing cold on the way Razz Thankfully, I was able to find this one quickly & we headed back towards home... Typically it stopped raining just as we got back!

TFTC pen.sco [^] Great spot for a cache & nice to see some black swans on the way... Log book is now full!

Suscoe's 6th find of today as we explored this area of Melbourne.
We have not ventured this way before and so we enjoyed seeing the countryside and the amazing development that has taken place throughout the area.
All quite here this morning due to the drizzle that was hanging about.
A very short search had the cache quickly in hand.
Sometimes you just start the search at the right spot.
Thanks to pen.sco for the cache..
 
19-Apr-15
Nice find by the the young fella
 
29-Mar-15
Really hard to find but it is not near the seats
 
21-Mar-15
ok, so this one took a little bit of thinking and some trial and error before hitting pay dirt. What a lovely area! Another spot that we had absolutely no idea of it's existence before geocaching came along. TFTC!
 
08-Mar-15
Great area for a Sunday stroll. The plant life has grown so much in the last few years. Log signed TNLN
 
05-Mar-15
Not there , looked thoroughly .

No#7 for the day.

Trying to catch up on all my finds.
Thanks for bringing me here.
Cheers and T.F.T.C!
Safe travels & hoppy caching =]
 
06-Feb-15
Physically climbed under the bridge, searched with hands in places that weren't visible, part of it is overgrown, so it could be there, but, with three people and 15+ minutes, no luck
 
26-Jan-15

03-Nov-14
To many mugged to have a good look. I suspect that the location is being over grown as I looked everywhere it could be. Scratched my hand up pretty good on the flora

Will try again another day
 
03-Nov-14
Found by Mary & David at 1610. We were in the area to deliver a belated 1st birthday present to our great-niece. What a lovely afternoon to be here with the water views and a great variety of water birds. The coordinated proved to be pretty close, but we still had to try a few spots before we found the well-hidden cache. Our thanks to pen.sco.
 
02-Nov-14
Took us a little while to locate, but some previous logs helped a bit.
Co-ords were a bit out.
Nice spot for a cache though. Thanks
 
05-Oct-14
Kids loved searching for this one, thanks!
 
04-Oct-14
Great little cache. Thanks!
 
Took awhile to locate the right spot....put my hands in some odd places....wifey always questions my sanity when caching like this! Nice location and some locals proudly showed off their babies while we waited for the muggle cloud to disappear.
 
02-Oct-14
I used a twig...hubby used his hands...even my feelings were right about where it was...using your hand is always a winning hand....grrrr. Have to admit i couldnt be bothered much when i got distracted by a swan couple with lots of bubba swans! Cute! Thanks for the cache!
 
30-Sep-14
Found on this very cold day with a few muggles around.
 
30-Sep-14
Easy find on this cold night. We've now introduced some more people into the geocaching world.
 
10-Sep-14
Nice quick find! TFTC!
 
01-Aug-14
I was a little worried about doing this cache because of the name, but with a 1 1/2 terrain I knew it would be ok,
at first I was in the opposite corner, but eventually I got it within a few minutes,

thanks pen.sco [:x]
 
27-Jul-14
Last one for the day - and nice and close to home.

Description of 'small transparent green container' is not accurate, obviously cache has been changed sometime over the past 4 years.
We did find it today though Smile (our second attempt) Great location, well placed!
