Moonlit Sanctuary Pearcedale, Victoria, Australia
By cathylmorgan on 27-Aug-10. Waypoint GC2E4GR

Decided to archive this one as it didn't re-appear and now the area is quite sparse. Good fun while it lasted!

The tree that was housing the cache has fallen over and cache is MIA! It may turn up when tree is cleared up, but in the meantime I have disabled listing as its not safe to search in that spot. If it re-appears I will move it and re-list the cache.

Called in on way to Hastings too busy, dropped back in after 5 no cache to be found.

Interesting hide. Easily spotted.

Completed @ 0800 after an earlier visit was stalled by a pack of cubs that were found to be roaming wild near GZ.

did this on way home from work forgot my gps had a look anyway and yes got it T

Out with team-coxy on my 50th birthday caching run Interesting cache container for this one.

Found while out on a caching run with Datruk who is celebrating his 50th birthday with a day of caching.

Have been past this a couple of times but always too many eyes about.
Today was the day, although there were still eyes watching me, but these ones were ok. TFTC

A quite day at the carpark and a very easily spotted cache.
Thanks

I set out on a bit of a mission today to gather a few travel bugs from caches I'd not yet visited. Well, this was cache number four and the fourth with no travel bug present.

As for the cache, I pass this place on an almost weekly basis but for whatever reason Have never stopped by to cross this one off - well today I changed that and made a very easy find with a container that didn't take too much spotting.

TFTC.

Nice place, stopped for an ice cream. interesting hide, TFTC.

TFTC< found with scorpio8, a nice and quick find. Great container, drove past this spot a fair bit and decided to stop and get this today. Thanks.

Went to Westernport Bay today with Mrs crusty and Crusty K9 2nd. Weather was magnificent and we had a great day. Loved the container. What a hoot! tftc, tnln.

Found by Bob at 1130

This looked like it might be a nice spot to check out some time - not enough time today, but I'll bear it in mind for a later date. Anyway, when I pulled up in the car park, I happened to be about 10m from GZ and as I headed in there, I thought I might be in for a bit of a search as there seemed to be a lot of potential hiding spots. However, without giving too much away, the cache container was spotted immediately, although I didn't check it straight away, and it wasn't until I did (and realized it was, in fact, the cache) that I figured it wasn't in its correct position. After doing my logging, I returned it to a spot that seems in keeping with its nature.

Thanks yet again cathylmorgan

was realy easy

Stopped by to drop off TB Moose…although there are no moose in the park, we thought he may enjoy some time with his wildlife contemporaries. Took nothing other than a few prickles. A quick find…TFTC.

Had a hoot looking for this one with the geokids! TFTC!!

A nice imitative hide, thanks

What a fantastic cache, one of the imaginative ones that brings a smile to my face when I see it. It was lying on the ground on its side, so I placed it back up on a branch that had a shoot going up to hold it in place. Hopefully it is in the right location. Thanks for the great cache.

A nice easy find an our Sunday cache collection. Took travel bug dolphin.

We found this cache today at 10:55am as the 5th of 29 on our Hastings and Area Caching Day. An interesting spot that we have driven past many times. Not sure as to where the cache container was originally supposed to be but we found it on it's side on the ground. We did not have any Pearcedale cache finds in our list until today and now we have five. Thanks from D & HA B-A.

Yep, pretty obvious where this one is as you walk up to it. Nice container

Nice hide .. Dropped tb.

Found @ 3:18pm, find # 870.
Out to clean up a few caches on my way to a night event.
Arrived at the Sanctuary carpark hopped out and head for the bushes keeping out of sight of the muggles in the sanctuary, had a look around and noticed something in the area that the cache was meant to be, and what do you know it was the cache.
Thanks to cathylmorgan for this cache.

FOUND THIS ONE AFTER A BIT OF SEARCHING, SOMEONE HAD MOVED IT AND ITEMS WERE FOUND CLOSE BY,PLACED BACK ACCORDING TO THE DESCRIPTION....

Nice find. This made me laugh out loud.T4TC

That was a hoot! With midaho

Quick drive by, no muggles in sight but a lot of cars and mossies! TFTC TNLNSL

It appears that the cache has mysteriously re-appeared so its back on-line and ready to go again! Thanks to ahomburg to searching for it even though it was offline - now I won't have to come up with a new design!

11.11AM

Despite this one being listed as "Temporarily Unavailable" I went along and had a look as I had not updated my GPSr to this new Status. It seems the Muggle has had a change of heart and returned the Cache to its spot, quite a unique Hide, didnt even look at it initially but on closer inspection, it dawned on me what it was.

Great Cache, thanks to cathylmorgan, TNLN.

[font=Comic Sans MS][green]Temporary blindness? Maybe ...

[/green]

The cache seems to have "flown the coop" - obviously with assistance from some muggles! So, I will disable this one temporarily while I come up with a new creation!

Loved the cache container!
Looked straight at it!

M took off in search of the cache and as usual headed in the wrong direction. After I redirected his search he stopped suddenly. At first I thought he had walked into a web but he then continued forward slowly and reached out for something before he came scrambling back with the cache. This is certainly a different cache and a very good one at that. TNLNSL. TFTC. KeMS

This cache made us really laugh, such an unusual and clever cache. We had to readjust and also the lid was on the ground. The contents are a little bit wet.
Overall we really enjoyed this cache, thanks. Second of three for the day.

Loved the cache container, very appropriate!

Loved the cache container. EB Nano has come here with school when he was in Prep last year. He was pretty keen to revisit the animals but his older brothers declined. Maybe another day, now I know how close it is to home! TFTcleverC

#3 for the day
Had the owner (I think) come talk to me and not knowing he knew about it
told him "Just out for a drive and figuring out where I'm Going"
went away and came back. WOW what a cache best I've seen so far.

20-11 14th find of the day at 16:00 and 1186th find in total.
Why didn't we do this one sooner?
There's no mistaking where this one is, is there.
We got a laugh out of it for sure.
(''\(OoO)/'') Thanks cathylmorgan for the caching fun!

Dropped in the nose travel bug to take a whiff of all the animals that live here!

Love the shape

Found this with Daryllm123 and co. Thanks for a fun cache, cathylmorgan.
Took Dear Sports bracelet and left LadyBug TB.

A nice drive-by while on a late night out. A interesting hide. TFTC

Last of the day and an esy find. The cache container was good, but maybe you should spray it brown and hide it up in a tree!! That would be really good. We probably would not find it then! Next time we will come a little earlier and go for one of the walks as well. Thanks cathylmorgan for the cache.

It took a little while to find but we found it.

Found quickly. What a perfect cache! Will have to start a Drop Bear TB here!

Despite spending a bit of time in the area I wasn't aware of this spot and no time to look around today. Loved the container. Took some photos but left nothing. TFTC

Fantastic container! Surprised it was still here - the mozzies were big enough to easily carry it away!
It did not take us long to sign the log, and get out of there.
We had an event to get to, so we didn't have a look inside today.
Thanks for all of your caches we have done this morning, Robmc.

Got here too late today to enjoy what looks like a worthwhile spot. The cache was a quick but most impressive find - loved it! Thanks cathylmorgan.

Our first find. Now off to enjoy the sanctuary.

Nice cache found today at 1515 love the different container used TN Left Aussie track a bear TB thought this was the safest place for him TFTC SL

Found @ 3.00pm Find #393
I thought this one might give me some grief after reading the past logs, but in the end it was a very quick find
Thx 4 the very interesting and bold hide

Amusing container This is a place I want to revisit for a night tour - the last time we came it was most informative with some hands on. TFTC

Grabbed this one while out one evening cache run with the tribe cleaning up all the newbie caches in my area.
What a hoot of an idea for a cache.

Found at 1150 am. A very easy cacheto find very visable from car park placed piece of bark in front of cache so it wouldn't be muggled, base of cahe is split. Nice spot T- Miss Magnet Mack L- Eraser TFTC SL

An easy find as it was looking straight at us. TFTC. Took wand and cream. Left Balls.

We were out doing some cache maintainence today so a short detour to this one had to be made. Although there were a few cars parked in the car park every one was off looking at what was on offer inside leaving us free rain to search. At GZ the container was spotted straight away as it was partly visible. This is a first for us, a very fitting container! It took a few seconds to work out how to get the log book out but we did leave our name along with the rest.
Thanks cathymorgan, its a bonus to get a grin out of a cache.

Our second find for the morning, I have been here a few times with the kids on excursions.
I don't think there is much to say about this container that won't give it away, however very fitting for its surroundings, not sure how it will hold up for moisture though.
Took 2x TBs and Dropped off 2x TBs, TFTC

I have Mel the koala? TB, just waiting for Cathy to log it into this cache before I 'grab' it, cheers

Was at the Walenators and they said theres a first to find quick lets go we hop in the car and took off
As we get there Walenator reconised Mr Jibblets car and as we went into the bush we realised there were more caches there The gps was picking up a good signal though but eventually it was found by Quasar3671
TFTC

Found the cache approx 10pm. Great cache container cathylmorgan. Lived locally for quite some time and never had the chance to visit the sanctuary. Looks like a great place to bring the kids to and let them find the cache too. Took sticks and left Duke Nukem TB. SL. TFTC.

Just logging in the travel bug that i left (as it has already been moved on!!)

Was getting ready for tea when a last minute check of my emails showed a new cache not too far away had just been posted. Grabbed Tyler and jumped in the car and headed over to the new site. Pulled into the car park and saw a few cars already there and a bloke hanging around his car. Turned out to be Mr Jibblets. We spent a few minutes looking for the cache when another car turned up with walenators and dehneys. Now we were all searching. Surely one of us was going to find it as it was proving to be quite elusive, until I happened across the cache. We signed the cache and had a bit of a chat, it was great to meet some more local cachers, then went on our merry ways. Thanks for the hide.

I arrived at the carpark to find myself the only person about and began my search for the cache around 5 minutes later i noticed another car arriving,stopping my search i went back to the car to check on some cache information,Noticing that it was another cacher(Quasar3671) we set out together to locate the cache,before we had even found the container The Walenator's & The Dehney's arrived hoping for a FTF aswell.
Turned out to be a mini event exchanging our stories before i headed home for some dinner.

Around 10 minutes of searching the area right on dusk it was Quasar3671 who located this unusual container before we all signed to log.
Thanks for the cache cathylmorgan
TNLN SL

Had a quick phone call from my husband in Sydney "There's a new cache only 12km from home". Well forgot about the wine I had already poured to share with The Dehneys and headed out the door. Got to GZ and couldn't see anyone but recognized Mr Jibletts car. There were a few cars in the car park so was wondering how many others belonged to cachers, but the only one other one belonged to Quasar3671. Had a little trouble with getting a good signal but the cache was eventually found by Quasar3671. Had a good chinwag before heading home for dinner. Thanks for the cache cathylmorgan and loved the cache container.
