Deciding to archive this one as if I replaced it to its previous position, it's likely to go missing again.

Thanks to everyone that found this one, I hope this troll trolled you hard Smile

I am currently very busy with work and university and have had no time to check this out.

I have holidays in July, I could possibly check then.
 
25-Mar-13
Should be an easy find.
DNF logs are a little worrying so I will take this offline until it is checked out.
 
22-Mar-13
We had a good hunt around for this one, but couldn't find the cache. Can the owner please check and make sure that all is OK at this spot.

Unfortunately searched everywhere and did not find

Had a nice walk around the lakes today and picked up this one while I was close by doing some other caches. TFTC! I put it back in the same spot, but did not jam it in quite so hard. It was hard to wriggle it out with all the muggles around, but the next person should not have the same trouble retrieving it.

http://www.geocaching.com/images/icons/icon_smile_big.gif It was a lovely day for a gentle stroll Mary Dale enjoyed it too, The cache was soon to hand without too much angst, and not a muggle to be seen. Thanks elitedude.

Out with our caching friends the Walenator's. We decided to do a big cache run before we have to return to the real world of work! We are having a bit of a hit & miss morning. The caching gods have not been smiling on quite a few of today's searches, the troops are a bit deflated. Things here were successful though. TFTC elitedude

Out for a fantastic weekend of geocaching with our caching buddies the "Earthbounds". A nice quick and easy find was had after the muggle walkers disappeared. TFTC....SL...TNLN

easy find, but got distracted by a muggle catching fish nearby with his bare hands...

Forgot to take a pen so we left a 10p piece to prove we found it. Smile

Find #331 @ 1250H

Being a Public holiday in St.Arnaud we decided to head over to Eaglehawk for some shopping and caching. After a short walk from the main drag of Eaglehawk and finding 1 cache I noticed that another was close by.
Hearing thunder and seeing the black clouds over head I decided to give it a go and hopefully not get wet. Well I found the cache and got wet too. but at least i got the Smiley lol

After completing the nearby night cache Pennyweight Gully with Alansee we were heading back to our cabins when this one popped up on the radar. It was still fairly early so we thought why not so parked the car and headed off to gz Once there we started our search and then both found the cache almost at the same time but strangely enough they were two different caches hidden quite close together so we opened up the logs and checked and it appears that both of them have been getting regular finds by different teams so we did the only thing we could and signed both logs and returned both caches to their respective hides.
Thanks for the unexpected twist.
 
05-Oct-12
Found with Team Crackers late at night. In fact we found two caches within a foot or so of each other. Mr C looked from one side and I another, at the same time, and we both found a cache! We left them both in place, wondering if we could log it twice? lol
 
05-Oct-12
We have finished work for the week. It was lovely and sunny so we thought we would go back to this site and look again (we are new to geocaching and still getting used to it). Found it easy this time. Thanks

Suscoe made a quick find here thank good ness after the previous cache!
Spotted the cache quickly, signed and off for the next!
Thanks to elitedude for this caxhe,

Took a while to locate. Great hide and beautiful location. We were nearly going to give up when mr farmer called out "got it". Thanks again
 
09-Sep-12
Nice spot for a hide. It didn't take too long to find luckily as muggles can appear suddenly. Would be a nice spot for a ride or walk. Thanks elitedude.
 
03-Sep-12
Nice & quiet but a beautiful day for geocaching. TFTC

First cache again in a while, good to be back trollin!

Today was a big day with 57 finds in the Bendigo area with Honeysucker including an event to celebrate Tigersden's 250 hides. Finished up the day with some night caching in the CBD. Tommorow is the 4WD event to the east of Bendigo.

Quick find and sign. TFTC. Big Grin

Nice easy find today, although took me 10 minutes to get it. There was a lot of people walking around here this evening, so just stood by, looking as though I was waiting for someone to arrive. As soon as the coast was clear, had cache in hand and signed log.

Good to see this one replaced in time for my visit today. Lots of water under the bridge after all the rain. I think I have cached in this near vicinity before.
Thanks for your hide

Back online! Moved 1 metre from original location

I'll disable this until I get time to check it out, it might have gone for a swim!

Love the name of this lake. Maybe our luck had run out with bridges (maybe we should try railway lines again), but I think the trolls have stolen this cache. Searched high and low and reading the previous log, we had no luck in finding this, either. The water in lake was high, so didn't try anything watery. We were wet enough after all the rain throughout the day. We'll try next time. Thanks elitedude.

553. No find for me today. Genuflected both sides with no joy (she'd stayed behind today). At least I got the muddy knees badge to wear all day Big Grin.

I had never been to Lake Tom Thumb, it is a nice looking park. Not a muggle to be seen as it had started drizzling by now. It seems the Troll was out too, as it was a quick find.
Thanks, Robmc.

Found by Mary & David at 1210. Knew where this one would be as we parked across the road. Quite a lot of water below, so we made sure that we didn't accidentally test its depth. A lovely spot between two lakes that we've been shown by geocaching. A few of the younger locals were trying out their fishing skills behind us in Lake Neangar. Our thanks to elitedude.
 
13-Feb-12
Excited to find yet another well-disguised cache so close to home (and in a place we walk our dogs regularly!) TFTC, I'm also part of a community group cleaning the two lakes up on Clean up Aus day, so will try and supervise any over-efficient muggles!

De ja vous for us as we have logged a previous cache at the same site - we think the CO of that cache had muggle troubles as well! We found this cache lying on the ground and returned it to where we thought it belonged - CO might like to check.

TNLN . . SL . . Thanks for the hunt elitedude & leoch00ks1.

NOTE TO CO: You might like to check that we returned the cache to your desired location.

Found it nicely..
Thanks for bring me here and cache

leoch00ks1 was checking on this one for me and said he couldn't find the container. Will investigate/replace in the next week or 2.

Out and about for a few cache finds today. After this I think I will head to Echuca for the night. Found and logged with a few muggles walking the trails nearby. Thanks elitedude for the cache.

Found it. Good to see water there.
 
13-Jan-12
A very quick find as the cache had somehow dislodged itself from its hiding place and was found neatly on the ground in full view. Replaced as appropriate. Hope it stays there.
 
12-Jan-12
Son and I were a little put off by the muggle surveyors nearby but we tried to look casual. Cache was quickly located and signed. Co-ords are spot-on. Just as we were about to replace it a muggle appeared so we made conversation as he passed. But he stopped and asked if we'd found it - it was the CO! After a pleasant chat we left to do the CO's other cache "Batter Up". Thanks for a cache in a very pleasant spot and it was nice to meet you elitedude!

micheena - no-one about today, except the wildlife. (ducks and turtles). As the heat of the day was hotting up, I nearly joined them.
 
Found at 5.50pm. I was lucky that there weren't many walkers, riders, joggers...at the same time I grabbed this cache.

Was a very easy find. I had preconceived ideas whilst on my way to the cache that I would be finding a cliptop container...silly me.

The cache was large enough...or should I say the TB was small enough to fit.

I had to take out the soldier so that there was space for the TB.

TFTC.

Found by Roma and Max.
Caught up with Paul again here and our combined effort soon uncovered your well hidden container.
We experienced some de ja vu here as we had previously found a cache not 2m from your GZ back in October 2006.
Thanks again elitedude.
