Cache is missing in action. I spent a fair bit of time on my back under the table and seats and the cache is no where to be seen. Given past logs I think it's fair to say it's been muggled.
Used to walk around here when I lived in Plenty. And the estate was very new. Nice to see the gardens and walking track now established. While the previous two logs said found it, from their comments they obviously didn't find it. Due to zero muggle activity, I was able to check over every cm of GZ, even lying underneath and gazing up as well as feeling everywhere that it could be attached. As there was nothing else anywhere near thar was remotely metal that a magnet could be attached to, I can only presume it has gone missing. Some evidence of partying was evident on the grounds surrounding the site. Thanks anyway for getting me to come back here.
Not there, muggles, but worht the veiw

Just started a new account and have found this one before great find on our way to interschool sport. We took felt like we needed a SEAT after the big win in our soccer game winning 8-0. After all great find
Visiting mum and dad who live at the bottom of the hill and thought we'd nick up to find the cache. View is awesome. Thanks
Found It! It was our first Geocache and it was awesome! We go there every Sunday and it was easy to get to. We took a small key and put in two star paper clips.
What a beautiful breathtaking view from up here,
Thank you for showing me this spot [:X]

Removed some of the log entry's sorry due to a drawing that children shouldn't see
Very quite day today on the hill. Walked up and admired the view . Some lovely houses up here not sure if they were in 3000 or 3088!! TFTC
Since I was nearby already I thought I'd stop and have a look. I had no idea this park was here. I always like the view of the city when driving down nearby Diamond Creek Rd. Such a shame the trees are in the way.
Thanks geozilla oz, for a great cache.

Missed the turnoff so ended up parking in one of the courts nearby and walked up to GZ. A lady was sitting down so walked past and gave her some time to move on. After waiting a few mins I came back and we chatted for a few mins. Then she left and I grabbed the cache. Then it was my turn to sit for a bit and admire the views... TFTC.
I gotta say, while bushfire safer places might be necessary, it doesn't make for a dramatically interesting park. The view from the top is great though, especially at sunset.
Cache os smug and dry and in good nick, but the log is pretty full.

The log book is full. There is still room to sign on the extra pages that MegUA added a few months ago, but the combined log and pages make this small cache very full. It's hard to get either out without them tearing. The owner might like to remove the full log. Thanks.
We were nearby at council offices so it was easy to convince my daughter to come have a look for this one. We were both impressed by the views and were also eyeballing the paths as possible billy cart runs! She spotted the cache very quickly then took off on her scooter and left me to fish out and sign the log. Thanks for the cache and for bringing us to this spot.
CJ-Curry brought me out here for a beautiful sunset view. Had to wait for a bit for someone else to finish enjoying it first, we stood off to the side and played 'I can see my house from here' - It's true, you can pretty much see all the way to Box Hill!
Thanks Geozilla_Oz for a great location choice ^^.

Couldn't find it! Not sure whether it had been muggled, or I'm just not very experienced yet. Worth it though, had a lovely walk in the crisp air, watched the sun go down and the kids ran around.
Great views today in the warm sunshine, and spot on coords made this a quick find.
Thanks geozilla oz for highlighting this great spot

Was in the area and thought we would get this one
This has to be the windiest and coldest place we have been to this week
plus the rain. So did not have much time to look at the view?
so SL and got back to the car Quick!.

Great view from here, thanks for sharing it. It was very windy today. Quick find, SL. TFTC.
Day 4 in 31 Days of Geocaching. Also my stepson's birthday. He was relaxing at home YouTubing on the ipad after a big laser tag session followed by McDonalds. My wife, who has now taken the tag 'GeoLeoGirl' (GLG), and I snuck out at just as the mighty Swans were starting the third quarter of their tussle with the Doggies. A five minute drive found us at Diamond Hills Estate. I regularly go to Diamond Valley Library around the corner, but was oblivious to the existence of this little park on the hill.
The GPS took us to the vicinity of the cache, and it was obvious what it would be found on, but I was struggling to find. With a chirp of joy, GLG alerted me to her find. Nice one Geozilla Oz - TNLN, TFTC.

Normally don't stop on the way home from work to do caches, but today was the first day of the 31 days of caching event so I figured if I didn't start today then there was no way of getting all 31. Anyway, worked out a quick cache not too far out of the way and went for a look. The description is apt, what a curious high spot with sweeping views in the middle of suburbia. Lots of muggles walking dogs, not to mention a row of houses with a clear view of GZ. Cache found and signed. TFTC

This is the first one I've found while on my own.
The description is right, it's an easy find. I spotted it from 20m away coming up the path up the hill from the south.
Its a great view and I walk through there all the time. I must have passed it hundreds of times without knowing it was there.
Thanks!

Found this morning, not much of a view this morning due to lots of fog but still nice spot. Log book was full up so added a few extra pages to it which should last a bit, SL. tftc.
Thanks for the cache did this by the light of the GPS.
The log book as every one has said is full so tried to write on the back but is quite messy due to the rest of the people who had the same idea. Thanks again PIPPAESP

Found with trailrunning, Blacklegend and Quasar3671 on another TDC run, A dash up the hill to the view and a quick sit down. Thanks for the cache.
The boys had done this before but as we were in the area we climbed the hill and I was rewarded with another find. Nice spot to sit at night. Thanks.
Run Summary
----------------------
Now that all the hot weather is over, it was nice to have a cool night to cache in and around Melbourne with Blacklegend, Quasar3671 and Rebel Acts. There have been a few caches close to Rebel Acts home that have been bugging him for a while, so I decided to base The Demolition Crew's run around these caches as well as pick up a few of our recently solved puzzle caches in inner Melbourne. I started my run north of Melbourne with Blacklegend, and when we noticed a FTF opportunity in Healesville that was still unfound a phone call was made and we were soon moving in that direction. We met up with Rebel Acts there as he had just finished work and we claimed the joint FTF. Soon after we then meeting up with Q3 after he had finished work and started the planned run
Over the course of the day/night run, 48 caches were visited with 4 DNF's and a DxT rating of 4.21 with quite a number of T5's being claimed. The number of unfound caches within 25 km's of home is now signficantly diminished, so another great night for me!
Thanks goes to all the CO's who have put the time into designing and placing their caches. I look forward to next Monday night / Tuesday morning when we will do it all again!

Found at 1730. Lovely view from up here, thanks for bringing me here. Log absolutely full.
2nd attempt at this cache. First time had muggles sitting at GZ. A nice quick find. TFTC
Came back a second time as the first time had people and non geodogs on the table. For some reason i could not see this even though imust have looked at it about 4 times with a torch. I then heard Malea yell "Erinnn! It's here, bloody hell" then laughed. Beautiful view. Malea wanted to sit for a while as my awesome driving skills made her feel sick.. so it was just this one cache for the night. Nice out tonight. TFTC!!
Today I visited this hill-top to find this cache for the second time. I failed to log it on the webb after my first visit 6 months ago. The view still as good on a perfect Autumn day. Thanks geozilla oz.
My first cache for the trip east. Loved the location and enjoyed the chance to get up high. There was alot of activity around but non close enough to cause any issues. A great way and great location to start my trip. Thanks for taking the time to find this spot for us.

Great view!! Easy cache!!
But I suspect that the view is the main reason for this hide and not the cache itself.
I had a couple with there big labrador come sniffing around (the dog that was, not the couple) at the moment of retreival, so had to wait until the nosy dog had passed by to get the cache.
Thanks for taking me to this place.

Took the kids up for a walk, unreal how dry and crackly the grass is underfoot. Quick find and lovely cache point. The views are amazing! TFTC
Am kicking myself for having done this one in the middle of the day! Will have to return at sunset one night. Thanks for leading me here - the view is indeed amazing!
Great views, I couldn't actually make out the CBD however I did get great views of Macedon, Dandenong and the Yarra valley.
Found it but lost my pen on the last cache! Will come back and tag it later. Great view at night time!
I'd been here many times before but never knew about Geocaching. A great location & a nice Geocache to kick off the New Year. Hopefully its a lucky '13 [8]
Easy find. Geo partner and I went to the nearby kinder so it was nice to have a look at that area again. I'm now considering buying a house up there! Tftc!

The views from up here are certainly worth the effort to come up here. This one was a fairly easy find, once looking in the right spot, of course it was in the last possible place it could have been on here! Thanks to geozilla oz for bringing me up here.
Found at 11.55am. Never knew this high spot was here. Great view all round except for 3000 - oh well! I'm sure it would have been good once upon a time. TNLNSL. TFTC.
The cach was well hidden but only took a couple of minutes to find. The view was great and as we had taken our geo dog with us she was able to go for a nice run on a near by oval. Took a small beaded string and in replacement left a LED torch.
Yes, it would have been a great view of the City once but at least there are still great views of the Macedon Ranges and the Dandenongs... A simple enough find. TFTC.
This was number 1 on day that started pretty ordinary but finished up nicley.
This cache was an unplanned pickup after I left home and got halfway on my trip before I realised I'd left my GPSr at at home and had to turn around again
This is a nice spot and a great view. I've lived in this area for many years yet I didn't know that this park was even here.
Cache is in excellent condition. TNLNSL Thank you for a good cache and a great view

Found in company with Little Buds, Ultra Violet Z and SuperJaz. We were in town for a wedding, which was happening not far from here. So we took the time to come up here and check out the view, and log our sole cache for the weekend (I was planning on grabbing a couple on our way up the highway, but everyone was too tired to stop). Good views, and we enjoyed a bit of a run around on the hill while we were here.
Thanks very much for the cache!

Found by youngest geoson, had great views over the surrounding suburbs and even managed to watch some lightning and dark clouds come rolling in over from the city way. SL just before bolting back to the car avoiding getting soaked by the rain by just a few seconds. TFTC
