Thanks. May I suggest a tiny plastic bag for the new log. Magnet in description really narrows it down.
First for the day and it's always good to start with a find .
The weather couldn't have been better and the early morning meant there were no muggles about in this park [^].
Definitely not in the first place we looked . TNLNSL.
Thanks Sneaky Seeker.

Needing a quick pitstop while travelling down south, decided to check out this little park. The iPhone was very interested in the fallen tree but the muggle working nearby in his backyard had us worried. A quick check of the GPS however had us back on the right path and away from the muggle's line of sight. TFTC Sneaky Seeker!
There were quite a few muggles on the street overlooking the cache when we did it - didn't help our search.
There sure are a lot of barking dogs in this neighbour hood. Don't think anyone human saw but every dog who was looking knows where this one is, so anyone speaking canine can get a heads up on this cache. Nice hide. Tftc
Tried last week to find it in the dark but our torches attracted local dogs! Too suss so we tried in daylight on 18th with Muggles nearby flying helicopters with their kids. Good one! No spidies! TFTC
Found during a caching foray into the southern suburbs. Thanks for the cache Sneaky Seeker!
Found with 2011*turtle. Did not know about this park and I am often in this suburb. TFTC
After being muggled off a couple of other nearby caches it was nice to have this park to myself.
Thanks for the cache Sneaky Seeker.

Tried this one a year ago and came away empty handed. Thus time I went straight to it. That shows what a year of caching experience can do! TFTC
Out with 3LG for a Sunday of caching down south.
A warmer day and night than we have had lately, so we enjoyed the sunshine and, for some of the day, the company of Honeysucker while we rounded up 30 locus cache smileys including 1 FTF and only 2 DNFs
Yep, it's there and someone walked right past it because the listing said 'small' but I think it is actually a 'micro'

At last we have a nice sunny day that is not cold to go caching in, out with Locus Cache and Honeysucker for a good part of the day, today we are going for our 1000th find so down south is the target area, we got to see some wonderfull sights and find some really good caches, we look forward to returning to the southern areas to do some more caching : ) TFTC
Not sunny at all this morning, but it wasn't raining! A nice little park I wasn't aware of, and after walking up the slope back to the car, realised this might be a good place to take my cubs iceblocking!
Called in to this one on my way to work in the rain. Parked the car at the edge of the reserve and walked very quickly towards GZ. The grass had been recently mowed and was very wet, as was I by the time I got back to the car. Found the cache, suitably guarded by spiders I suspect, signed the log and replaced before high tailing it back to the car. Heater and demister on full, I continued on to work. Thanks for the cache Sneaky Seeker.
TFTC. TheSneakyOne spotted it straight away.
Found as part of Scout Geocaching Comp.

Gpsr not being awesome tonight. Shotflames eventually made the find for us, TFTC
GPS didn't like this area tonight, but thankfully we found it. found with Bek-TheRaccoon. TFTC
Got to the corner I went one way Margieh went the other and she made the find.

This was the start of down hill up hill caches for the day... Once at GZ it didn't take long to find the cache.. The container is cracked but ok..
Thanks Sneaky Seeker for the cache
Thanks Sneaky Seeker for the cache
Quickly found but serious stealth needed as lots of muggles on the other side!! Thanks Sneaky Seeker for the hide!!
While we were at this one a spider appeared, after looking away for a moment it disappeared.
Needless to say, we fled the seen.

Tell you what...for an empty park at sunset, it's hard to do this one without the muggles getting suspicious! Was sitting on the grass signing the log and had a dog walking muggle ask if i was ok...a teenage girl in the house overlooking the park stood staring suspiciously and then went back inside...I need to work on my cloaking skills!
That said, as Mr Tardis notes, the cache container is broken...if the next finder could bring a really small plastic bag for the log that'd be great. TFTC!

A quick find for Mr Tardis while on a caching run through the Happy Valley area. The container is a little broken (but still Ok at this stage), probably because the bag for the log book was way to big and putting a lot of pressure on the lid when it's closed.
Luckily the neighborhood dogs didn't start barking until I was on the way back to the car.
Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Sneaky Seeker.

Had to be sneaky with a nearby muggle but cache grabbed by geodaughter without much trouble. SLTNLN TFTC!
Nice easy find. I'm sure plenty of muffles were watching!!
Cache container needs repair but contents are intact.

May need to be checked...
Thanks for bringing us to this nice park

Am I the only one bothering to try looking for this?
Or the only one bothering to log DNF's lol
Today gpsr put me 7m in the backyard of the the neighbouring property!
Started searching the fence capping, when all hell broke loose with their dog, and then a couple of neighbouring dogs also!
From behind me I heard a screen door slowly open, so without looking over my shoulder I gave up and retreated to the car, defeated again!
I did search a fair bit of the capping though, still with no luck!

Another dnf.
New coords put me on the grass.
Going by the hint, there is spider hides on the seat, but couldnt see it there either

Gave it our usual 10 minutes, but couldn't find anything like a cache. Our thanks anyway to Sneaky Seeker.
A DNF for us. Bumped into nifty.jaye here, who didn't have much luck either. Couldn't stay around for a thorough search, so will pop by another day for a better look.
Out geocaching with exAquora. Found the decoy bag just lying on the ground. Found a rock with a well shaped hole in it, but nothing inside. Was about to give up when we heard a question "are you geocaching?" Stayed with our fellow searchers for a bit and had another look, but then gave up and headed off. I see no "found it" logs, so it looks like they didn't find it after we left.

This is also a DNF log....
Seriuosly think this needs some serious TLC or archiving....
Found nothing, not even a 'decoy' baggy!
Given it is in full view for just about all the neighbouring properties, any replacement will soon go the same way, sorry to say!
there has been plenty of DNF's and no owner response
Please fix or archive....

We are claiming a find on this one. We found the decoy bag, this is about where our GPS took us to for GZ. Is there really meant to be a decoy or has someone removed the cache and replaced it with this note? The hide for the decoy note appeared more appropriate for a container than a plastic bag.
I was with muff1 when we found the decoy. This was at ground zero. Has the cache been tampered with as there was only a plastic bag and no container? Nice park. Thanks Sneaky Seeker
Found on a warm afternoon, caching with Team Ermalesh.
Nice hide twice

No joy with this one, I attempted this one one week earlier without Mr Bushies2 then today again both of us searched and there were some huge black spiders under the rocks so we gave up. Thanks.
We searched and searched and although we were a little worried about the neighbours, we persevered until we found the cache. Nice hide and nice park.
We should have given up on this one, as we spent far too long in the wrong spots.
The adjusted coords were in the backyard of rhe house.
Found in the last of many places we looked.

Looks like this cache may have been muggled again - "already"!!!
Found what I believe is the cache but has a note in it "Cache Decoy - Keep Looking" (or words to that effect).
PM sent to CO to confirm it is the cache.

Thanks everybody for the info,will get to do the maint when we get home in early November.
Seems like some funny business going on here. On a muggles hit list?

Cache contents were found a few metres from the cache in the mud out in the open. Log very saturated and bag is not water tight. Have replaced back to cache location but needs checking.
Do not know if someone has tampered with this one but found a cache with a note inside saying "This is not what you are looking for but you as so close" (or words to that effect. Will put a watch on to see how others go before re-attempting.
Cache found was a black plastic tube with styrene foam stuffed in each end.

My third attempt. Previous 2 times prevented by muggles. Dogs next door were yapping away for want of something better to do. TFTC.
Returned after finding the fake cache. Found where I'd expect the cache to be but no cache. Had a wander around and found the cache contents a few metres away in the mud! have replaced it to GZ but it's a little soggy. Will post maintenance note.
