Didn't not find it, but way too many muggles in the park so just moved on. I'll be back.

No find if the next visitor doesn't find it they might want to recommend it for archiving.

Epic fail.
 
19-Dec-12
Had a look today after danozz had no luck and I had found it previously. I could not find it. I dd find a big grey Huntsman Spider!
 
17-Nov-12
Searched for quite a while, I couldn't notice the container anywhere. Got some PAF assistance, no cache. Found the tree which a previous logger noticed the blocks of wood nailed in at about 2.5m height, still no cache. Could do with a check, or maybe some really descriptive clues so we can tell the exact spot it should be in Smile

Gunks, TigerAd, Geodog, Geotorch and Geopen on a Sat night caching, hoping to find enough to justify a Malteser Mcflurry reward. Cache is probably there somewhere.
 
24-Oct-12
Watched some athletes doing their training then stealthily extracted the cache from its GZ. The container was pretty exposed so tried to cover it a bit but doubt the camo will last. Nice park. Thanks for bringing me here.
 
23-Oct-12
nice easy find, took the dog for a walk but it started to rain a bit as we were leaving. TFTC! find #7 for gem^2 Smile

Find # 2146

Today was another Saturday caching run with my partner in crime Sedgwick Dave. The day started out a little bit overcast but cleared up, the sunshine came out for a fantastic spring day.

Dave had already found this one, so left me to do this one solo. A great looking athletics track. I was searching for a while with no luck when I heard some knocking from the neighbour, I looked around and she was pointing to the cache location through the window, I was searching in the wrong place. Needless to say, I soon had the cache in hand.

Thanks to dunny12 for the cache. TNLN.
 
30-Sep-12
Easy one to finish off the day. Left worthless cash behind
 
17-Sep-12
Yep, the co-ords are out, so just look at the area and a quick find is likely. TFTC
 
16-Sep-12
found this while out with Paco Aliandro. took a little bit of searching, felt a little suss hunting around in the bushes. tftc
 
16-Sep-12
Out and about on a mission with ProBleMatiKal. We were a bit suss hunting in the bushes and the slightly miscued co-ords gave us a few head scratching moments. Probs came up with the goods, happily signed the log and replaced. TFTC.
 
09-Sep-12
Slightly unnerving rummaging in the bushes holding a phone next to a children's park - luckily we brought two along as decoys.
 
07-Sep-12
Found @ 11:30pm, find # 1651.
I arrived at GZ and was searching in a spot as indicted by my GPSr but with no luck so I moved onto the next object nearby and the cache was then located.
Thanks to dunny12 for this cache.
 
04-Sep-12
Had to make a trip to Box Hill with geo friend, so picked up a cache or 8 on the way home. This was one of them. Thanks.
 
24-Aug-12
A cold and wet early afternoon meant that the park was empty which made for an easy find. Just had to ensure that muggles nearby were not home. All was well, made the find, signed the log and recovered the camo. Thanks for the cache, dunny12.
 
30-Jul-12
Easy find put more camo over it neighbour watching thanks dunny12

Sweet little park, geo daughter enjoyed the swings while I searched. TFTC.

Found with nirgalagrin... now I have my own account.



15:05

A quick find in the further of the two most likely hides.



Last cache of the day... the weather turned against us as we parked at the next. Thanks for the hunt.

28-Jun-12
Park very quiet, happy to have made first find after only about 15 minutes !
 
22-Jun-12
Took a bit of searching as the co-ords are out, but logic led me to the right spot.
 
02-Jun-12
Dodged the kids playing Marco polo on the playground. I suppose that means at least one of them
should have their eyes shut!!! once again they weren't worried about a couple of "older girls" hunting in the bushes.

14/05/2012 22:33 Despite this being an older cache it simply hadn't been on my must-get list till tonight. With the poor weather and late hour this was an ideal quicky. Having read the logs describing GZ as being about 9m out I too used geo-sense and found it quickly but not after spending several minutes at the likely location closer to GZ. TFTC dunny12 TNLN SL
 
13-May-12
On my way home from Mothers Day lunch and decided to grab the caches along the way. Thanks for the cache dunny12
 
13-May-12
Found with Cooney17, it was his 100th find! Very easy find, would probably be harder if the last person put it back properly.
 
13-May-12
FIND #100! Found with -Coen on my day off. Not really hidden that well, put back where we found it with a little more camo
 
29-Apr-12
Been here before and struggled due to nearby muggles.
Returned early on a Sunday morning for a straight forward find.

Not at all comfortable with this type of cache, don't like searching through bushes next to kids playgrounds, in view of the house next door. I won't visit this one again, but thanks for the effort in placing it. Found at 9 am.

04-Mar-12
Coords ARE off, but fairly familiar and logical cache location so shouldn't put too many jeekers in distress. TNLN
 
03-Mar-12
Thanks to the rain I could search for this in solitude but by the same token the rain did not improve the experience. Soon found after widening the search after reading previous logs. It was well covered today.
 
02-Feb-12
Found at 11:29 AM GAFF1 in the company of maccamob and Robmc. GPS was pointing at a not very likely spot - in the middle of the grass, so we widened our search and found the cache 9 metres away. The track looks quite well maintained.
Thanks dunny12
 
02-Feb-12
Found by Mary & David, with pprass and robmc, at 1125. Only a short walk from the street. A quick find and Peter did the honours. Our thanks to dunny12.
 
02-Feb-12
The track was empty, there were no muggles in the park, nor mini-muggles in the playground, but the street was full of cars.
A short walk and a quick find.
Thanks, Robmc.

Obviously 7:20pm on a Sunday night is a good time to do this one as the blinds were closed on the neighbouring house - probably having dinner. Hunted around for a while as the GPS co-ords were jumping around, probably due to heavy cloud cover, and then saw it quite easily. Have tried to cover it up a bit better but would only need some wind to make it visible again. Only one muggle walking a dog but a few mossies at that time of night. TNLNSL. Have passed this park thousands of times in the car on the way to Box Hill Centro but never stopped. Great athletics track. Thanks dunny12 for the new experience.
 
04-Jan-12
First for the day, fairly quiet in the park thankfully. Easy enough with help from previous logs Smile
 
11-Dec-11
Found @ 14:30. I was permitted an outing after lunch at the in-laws. This was the first of six. A quick find with the cache easily visible. The muggle dwelling overlooking GZ erupted forth with a muggle as I was finishing up. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and got out (hopefully) undetected. Thanks for the cache.

Since my other half had a date with his Mother at the Opera today, I decided it was the perfect time to nip out and pick up a few guilt free caches. Having passed a couple of hours caching with Pathfinder24, I dropped him home and headed out again on my own for a few more caches on the way home..... OK they were a massive detour, but can’t be helped! I had hunted around for this cache for a while, when I decided to read some previous logs, as the clue wasn’t seeming to help me. After reading them, I was a bit worried I was going to be accosted by s made woman in a kitchen, but it seemed the closed blinds we doing me a favour! I found the cache in the end, I don’t know how I missed it earlier, as it wasn’t covered and was easy to see. It’s possible it isn’t where it is meant to be and might need a visit from the owner? Thanks for the cache dunny12

Another quick find with the Geokids. TFTC
 
15-Oct-11
Caching in Mont Albert North today. As I approached GZ, I saw a family just leaving the playground. I thought to myself, Wow just my luck! Thankfully, I did not encounter any old lady at the kitchen when searching. I began my search. Followed the hint and did not look down but still no cache.. Saw something that looked like a cache, climbed up, but no it wasn't. I was about to give up when I saw something that looked like a container and there it was. Signed the log and replaced it. I was about to leave when it started to rain. Oh bummer.. I had to wait under the tree for the rain to stop. Waited for 15 mins, of which after 5 mins, I noticed the old lady at the kitchen. She saw me too because I was wearing a bright red top. I just acted cool as if I was just taking shelter under the rain (which I was). At least she did not bother me. Left as soon as the rain subsided. TFTC dunny12 Smile
 
22-Sep-11
Found this one together with nadya. Well, it was easy to find and grab but not so easy to put back because of the muggle which started to look out of the window right onto the GZ. Of course that might be cache-aware muggle or even the geocacher but we assumed he is not. We waited and waited but he was still there. So we drove away for a short time to check out another cache nearby, GC2NTKW, and returned in 15 minutes. He was still there. We had no intention to return to this location today and also to wait any more so I tried to find a way to put cache back. I crawled on the ground staying out of sight from the window and then slid the cache into its position. Whew! Thank you for the cache. TNLN.
 
18-Sep-11
No activity from the nearby windows. The cache was located in the second spot that I looked. Was lucky with the timing on this one, as just after I had left a muggle family pulled up in a car and piled onto the playground. Thanks for the cache.
 
17-Sep-11
Lots of play muggles
 
29-Aug-11
Found with kamce in a record run. many sports activities and doggers at the time. The site itself was being gaurded by a little old lady. Theyre such persistent creatures but we got it anyway.
 
29-Aug-11
Found this cache today with Irontoad. There was an old woman in her kitchen nearby but we were able to locate the cache quickly. Took glow bracelet and left boomerang.

18-Aug-11
Found, with some trouble due to muggles walking home from work, after-school muggles running on the track, and (worst of all!) vague coordinates from my GPSr due to heavy cloud cover. Thanks for the cache.
 
13-Aug-11
Took Geoson out for a few hours
a quick search soon had the cache in hand
no TB in cache

Another nice reserve and fairly quick find. SL TFTC

Forgot to add to log that I dropped off a TB.

20:55. No.5 with CamBendy. This makes 150 for me. A nice easy find but I'm not sure about the hint. If we had followed it we would have missed it. Quickly signed the log and moved on. Lots more to find tonight. TFTC.

Found @ 8:55pm
5th of 12 finds on night cache run with Physics Teacher
10th of 18 for the day!

A nice park to visit, but of course two blokes like us really didn't care about that tonight. The rain had finally cleared a little which was greatly appreciated.

Major mistake made searching for this one. We read the hint and so I did the opposite of what it said not to do. This probably delayed the find by 5 minutes. Perhaps this cache has suffered from a little creep and is no longer in its original position?

Quick sign and return.. the mission continues! TFTC
 
20-Jul-11
I'd walked across the other end of this reserve before but had never explored down this end. Until a cache was placed here! Smile

Cheers dunny12, thanks for bringing me here.
 
20-Jul-11
Last one for the evening. Was coming to Dorking street and saw how many caches there were nearby so had to get a few. Read the logs about the cache being very exposed but someone has taken care and covered it all up again. Nevertheless, for wily types like cachers there is still enough amiss for it to be a good find.
 
19-Jul-11
This was an easy find, as it was just sitting there uncovered for us to find. TFTC
 
19-Jul-11
Saw the logs suggesting an easier reach and popped by. TFTC
 
19-Jul-11
No trouble on this one, it was sitting in plane sight. TFTC

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.
Dont understand clue. Suspect cache had been located from orginal idea??
No sign of TB in cache sorry.

TFTC, a quick and easy find, cache found in spot i dont think it belongs. Could see a possible hidy up the tree with block of wood, but cache was found close to ground.

Came back today for a quick find with no muggles around. Trying for the whole series this afternoon but was not to be. Took skateboard left rabbit. Thanks dunny12 for the cache and the series.

Found it. Nice hide. I also picked up my first trackable and will take if for a run before finding a good place to drop it off. Cool

After attending the Chase the Cache at Docklands and the 9999 + 1 event, walenators took me on a caching run.

As we cached into the evening I wasn't doing much to help the find rate, walenators were doing it all! We arrived at this cache and strated our search. After a few minutes we were about to head out as two blokes playing with a torch in the bush may look suspicious. Just as we were about to go, I looked in that 'one last spot' and there was the prize

Thanks for the cache dunny12


Cheers Cool

24-Mar-11
The rain did not look like stopping and I had forgotten the brolly, so I made a dash for the shelter of a few trees As fate would have it I was close to GZ and the cache was spotted on the ground uncovered at 1:50pm getting wet. I have replaced the container closer to the stated coords, better camouflaged and more consistent with the hint (but not quite) Has there been cache creep? TNLN TFTC
