As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. 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. Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm 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 30 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 month or so to keep everyone up to date.

Not much happening on the maintenance front.

Could do with a check up.

Searched and searched with dutch frangipani but the GPS had us searching between 5 different trees. We tried each one but to no avail.

The description says it is 300m east of the playground but I think that should be south of the playground.

Oh well maybe next time.

Unfortunately SorceySal and I didn't find this one today. Coordinates led us to nothing in particular and we searched a few places around GZ to locate it. No luck - noticed another log of not found before us.

Didn't find this one today. I attempted this one after the Intervening Days event. I found a likely hiding spot but no cache and then I checked all the trees but no cache. It appears there is gardening work happening and I wonder if the cache has fallen victim to this work.

Gone, gone, gone.

Found with young fella today, an easy walk and find.

Cheers Gordo

A nice easy find after a short walk. TNLN, thank you ausdynamix.

Found it..

GZ a bit further than what coordinates suggest! TFTC

I think it has gone bye bye

Easy find,
Once correct tree is located
Done with mate Chrispy

Glad to finally have gotten this one after being on the wrong side the first time!!!

Found it

We enjoyed a lovely walk to this cache on a warm afternoon. Found the cache partially uncovered due to the muggle workers mowing so close to it. We dug a bit of a hole to half cover the cache before placing bark etc over it so that if it happens again the cache should be still covered. Muggles arrived with their children just as we were about to leave the park - great timing indeed! Sorry we did not have a plastic bag with us today to replace the broken one.
TFTC ausdynamix and bringing us to this park

Quick look around but missed it will try again on the next walk through

Tfc. First cache for the day, many more to come

Bag is broken

we found this with a little looking good fun... took eye ball put in gold button

Didn't find it in our 5min look in the rain

This was, cache # 15 of 24 finds for the day, in the company of Trailrunning, we had been chating and texting for some time now regarding caching but never met, so tonight we finally teamed up and went caching, we had a great night with lots of laughs along the way. I know were on a numbers run but its not usually this easy, we walked up and there it was in plain view. My thanks to ausdynamix for the cache.

The usual TDC cache grab had been put on hold for a week, so I was looking at doing a solo run when I remembered I had a rain check promise with the legendary RebelActs to go on an evening caching run during the school holidays at some stage in the future. Well tonight was the night. We met at Glen Waverley and were soon moving west to Melton. It’s hard to find locations close to either of us where we haven’t already cleared out the area, so the Melton area was easily accessible and fruitful enough for us both. In all we visited about 33 locations with only two DNF’s, one DNA, and 1 very flat tyre. All in all it was a great night out. I finally got to meet RebelActs after corresponding and talking for such a long time and never actually caching together!

We had a great laugh here. Whatever cover this cache had it was gone. Cache was just lying in teh open. A nice easy find for us. We covered it over. thanks

Parked the car down along the road, and took the stroll back to the park, and then along to GZ. A few loud, boozed and boisterous muggles in the park area, but they didn't seem to intent on watching me. Had GZ to myself, the cache was spotted immediately, logged and returned. Thanks to ausdynamix. Plastic bag is ripped and full of holes, and unfortunately I didn't have my caching bag on me, so I couldn't replace it.

Our first official find

Took a couple of mins but found it left a coin trakeable it's heading to Adelaide of anyone going that way

Easy find in a nice place. TFTC!

Found quickly today on a nice little walk.

I quite liked the hide on this one, it had me walking in circles for a couple of minutes but I got there in the end!

What a lovely spot. I live in Melton but had never been in there. Great for walking my dog. Thanks heaps. GPS points weren't spot on but I found it after a process of elimination. Had nothing with me so took nothing.

A very wet and cold afternoon with not a muggle in site. Cache was soon in my cold hand. [^] TFTC ausdynamix

Found @ 16:50hrs.Thank you ausdynamix for the cache.

Nice easy find thankyou. Signed log tftc

Well I did what the previous finder did, walked in circles around various trees. The iPhone was all over the shop here.
Found it where I knew have looked first.

Thought this one had eluded me but finally got it. iPhone gps all over the place. Cache in good condition but log getting full. Took nothing but left something small

Walked straight up to it - completely exposed with no camo. Nice out of the way park reserve.

Coordinates had us here there and everywhere, but soon made the find after thinking logically. TFTC, a great little linear park. TN L: pathtag.

Nice little park, and nice cache, thanks ausdynamix. TNLNSL.

Thankfully the hide was nice and easy for us, as my gps had really terrible accuracy at this hide.

we had to venture back and forward just a little bit until we saw it.

Following the noise and chat of the Intervening Days event, this was a very peaceful spot. The satellites had the GZ 7m to the NE of the cache location today, but the cache was fairly quickly in hand, the log signed and we were on our way.

TNLN . . SL . . Thanks for the hunt ausdynamix.

Found today after Intervening Days IV on a caching run with Rabbitto and The 2 Wanderers. Approached from the wrong side and someone took his shoes off to get across...thanks someone SL TFTC

We found this cache at 7:05pm as the 23rd of 24 on our Intervening Days IV - Melton Cache Day in company of Kinkell1 and The 2 Wanderers. We were heading for Botanica but since we were almost passing this one, we decided to stop here instead. We walked in and got within 26m before realising that there was a small creek dividing us from the cache. I looked at the walk to go around, looked at the 26m on the GPSr, the walk around, the 26m and decided that it was much easier to doff the shoes and socks for a quick paddle. Turned out to be the much easier option and no nasty surprises in the water either. Thanks from D & HA B-A.

Found at 2:49PM Another find following the Intervening Days event.

Found in the company of coley_babee prior to attending the inaugral Intervening Days event.
Parked nearby, and made the short walk to locate the cache.
Another quiet park on this morning.
Thanks again ausdynamix.

Nice park easy find cache in good nic

Found in the evening with Matty_j_senator and Connor G. Nice stroll in the mud and some puddles, played in the lovely park for a little bit. TFTC

Nice quick find. We avoided the swooping magpie on the way back!

Gotta watch those magpies... Missed me by centimetres. Found while in the area with 42below

Thanks Ausdynamix

Dashed out from the car in the cold wind - back in four minutes!

Pretty easy location for our first find ever.

Straight forward find using all available cover, T4TC

Found 13:15, in the company of Muzza on our regular day out.

TNLN, CSI=2, thanks ausdynamix.

I was out caching with Biggles Bear for the afternoon and this was our second. Another nice quick find. Thanks for the cache.

Nice, quick, easy find whilst in the area.

Another nice one for the kiddies on a cold day

This was a really nice place for a walk here, although we didn't do that as it was late in the day and growing cold. We found the cache and spotted somewhere to have our afternoon tea nearby, so that was a bonus. TFTC.

Had a bit of a tea break here, enjoying the last of the winter sun

Suscoe's 12th find this morning.
Second wrong side of the creek for the morning!! Oh well!!!
Once that was sorted, a nice walk and there it was as expected.
TNLN
Thanks to ausdynamix for showing this place to us.

enjoed the short walk to GZ, easy find....and has been found by some muggle-kids too!! but they still rehid it :0 took out the offending pages in the log book, and rehid as normal.
thanks ausdynamix for the cache.

Nice park. Nice wel maintained cache. Last person to write in the log had a few strong opinions about things. Not sure they would have logged the find though.

A lovely little piece of parkland in suburban Melton. A few "interesting" comments in the logbook from an immature muggle, but at least they left the cache in place. Cheers!

found during a work trip to Vic, TFTC

TB "the (too much) Duffman" passing through

Found whilst EurekaGold was @ hairdresser nearby.
TNLN & SL. Thanx ?

Slipped down a right-of-way between houses after admiring an iron palm tree on a carpeted island(!?) Thanks.

Nothing too difficult about this cache, expect getting the bottom of my jeans wet from all the wet grass. Signed log and returned cache. Nice story.

Walked in from the other end (to the playground). Very pleasant park for a stroll, strangely empty of muggles. A quick find at GZ.
Thanks, Robmc.

Found our last of our trip home from ballarat

TFTC

Found an easier way to locate this one.
Found easily!
TFTC

The boys decided to stay at the park and have a play while we went for a quick stroll to GZ. Once there the cache was found quickly. Signed the log and made our way back to the boys, not a moment too soon either as they were actually starting to get on each others nerves. TFTC.

High fives all 'round. Managed this one in the dark.

Found by caughtatwork at 14:35 on 18/01/2011
A quick walk as I went down the right of way between two houses which put me nearly on the cache itself.
A nice easy find
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks again audynamic for this cache. You have been busy over the last 6 weeks or so.
