This was a very fun cache to find, and I really enjoyed it! Nice little hidden place on the highway!
 
02-Dec-23
Found by Mary and David at 12:00. D didn't need much extra elevation, but the access was wet and a bit slippery. If at first you don't succeed, try from a different side. Contents snug and dry, and plenty of log left. Can't believe all the new building on this side of Geelong. Our thanks to juc_cacher.

I arrived this morning on the Spirit and am working my way towards South Australia after caches. Typical me I took the hard way to get to GZ and after locating the cache and signing the log I was able to take the easy way back to the car. Cache ad contents were in good condition.

Popped down today and grabbed the trackable after a post on social media. It's at the end of a very long journey.
And damn, I didn't see the previous log until just now, or I'd have done a CITO. But knowing where to look, I wasn't looking at the base of the tree Sad
 
28-Mar-23
Beware if letting children look for this cache as the first thing we found was a plastic bag full of condoms at the base of a tree - wondered if it was a play on ‘coming’ . Then found the intended cache and left a trackable.

Would have found this one much quicker had it not been for 1- the compass in the smartphone went haywire as soon as I opened the app when I got out of the geomobile and 2- then it decided once I got to within about 30m of GZ it wanted to take me for a walk the long way around the grove of shrubbery the cache was in. After walking an extra 50 or so m and the distance to GZ wasn't getting any shorter I knew I was going the wrong way. A switch of maps on the so-called smartphone and I was back on track and within a minute or two I was doing my best Curious George impersonation and adding my name to the logbook. Thx juc_cacher, all good with the cache today.

Came to torquay for the holi festival and a spot of shopping! Was a great day! Had a TB that wanted to visit the surf coasts so swapped it out for the one in here worked out perfectly! Great spot for a hide, I did disturb a few ants which then inturn disturbed me, only fair I guess but otherwise great cache! TFTC

Out in the Torquay area today for a bit of rest and relaxation and some caching as well. Well, isn't caching rest and relaxation? We think so. It was an interesting day today as it was a pleasant temperature but pretty overcast. We have been out this way a bit recently. We have driven by this park several times and said that the geodogs would love a run in the park. Today was the day. We turned into the appropriately named road (for a dog park, that is), pulled up the geomobile, and piled the geodogs out. We made our way towards GZ and saw the cache quite quickly, and Mr. Dromaniax made the retrieval relatively easily. The cache is in excellent condition. Thank you for this cache juc_cacher.

It’s finally the rescheduled Geelong trip! Originally postponed due to 25km restrictions, we are now free to roam and set to explore. Ad labs, puzzles and spending some time in Queenscliff is today’s adventure.

A relatively quick find helped by an element of height

Thanks juc_cacher for the cache.

The first family getaway in what seems like forever a weekend in Torquay after our plans to visit NSW were aborted due to COVID lockdown up there,\. I ventured off to find this while on breakfast hunter gather duties.
Thanks juc cacher

We had to go to Bunnings. This was a short walk away. Thanks for showing us a new park.
 
17-Jan-21
Coming to Torquay to search for a few caches, and this first one we found without our children and grandchildren being on the scene. We eventually worked out the best way to approach the cache and it was soon spotted by Geowife, but of course I had to do the physical part. Good cache and an enjoyable experience. Thanks.

I can still be a monkey! Tftc

The last couple of days have been a bit wild and windy but today the sun came out and so did I My first cache today which I’d approached with some trepidation but it turned out to be not too daunting. Container needs replacing TFTC juc czc
 
04-Jun-20
Container has become very brittle. Lid in pieces and water in cache. Need replacement
 
08-Mar-20
Container lid is broken. Didn’t have a spare one of these kinds of containers. Will need maintenance.
Great hint. Good coordinates.

07-Mar-20
We got it, but I’m not sure it was worth it from the entrance we took. Don’t park on Main Road you have to climb a fence to get in. Lid is broken and container full of water, but log in a bag is still dry.
 
02-Mar-20
Found it
 
20-Oct-19
They have closed off the nearby parking area and opened up a new one. I wondered around the entire bush patch before finding the wasy into this one. Unfortunately the lid had deteriorated and is broken. Anikano who I bumped into earlier in the day was here too.
 
20-Oct-19
A quick find here in a nice little spot. Enjoyed walking the dog around the area and relaxing on my day off. Love being shown these types of spots through caching. Tftc

18-Mar-19
In Geelong for a spot of work and making the most of a mild evening to grab a couple of caches.
Went around in circles for a little while trying to find gz after the direct approach didn't work. Got it eventually.
I don't know what is coming here.. I quite like it the way it is. Except for the rabbits. They can go anytime they like..

I can’t imagine using this area as a traveller, but the way Torquay is growing this will be needed parkland for new suburbs soon. The cache was found quickly. Thanks juc_cacher
 
25-Dec-18
I have updated the parking coordinates to reflect that the council has removed the parking bay off the highway. All access is now via Messmate Rd. DO NOT park on the highway !
 
25-Dec-18
Out and about with the youngest for a Xmas nap (for him) and cache (for me). Stopped here first before junior fell asleep and we wandered off into the bushes. We probably took the path less travelled, but we got the job done and had fun doing so. PM sent to CO also, parking WP is no longer valid/useable. TFTC, have driven past many a time but unaware of what was here. The 2 TB’s listed were nowhere to be seen.
 
29-Nov-18
Good hiding spot
 
12-Nov-18
TFTC. We had been in Torquay with our Motorhome Group. This morning we were heading back to Maryborough, but first I (Hans) had a skype Committee meeting. Conveniently we parked close to GZ. (Of course by accident Wink ) After the talkfest went for a short meander to GZ and quickly had cache in hand. We took the 2 TBs to continue their journey.
 
12-Nov-18
Very cool find today. yes indeed miss 8 would have been very handy to have along with me. TFTC
 
04-Nov-18
Heading home after a surf check and stopped off for a quick cache. Was fun navigating through the bushes to the cache! TFTC.

On my way to find the Ocean Road I thought I would make this my first one for the day. I needed the clue to spot it. Nice to be alone for a change - nearly impossible in Singapore. TFTC

Find # 7254

Found with Tyred n Cranky.

Down in Anglesea for a weekend family trip. While Tyred n Cranky had found quite a few in the area they decided to stop at a lot of them to let me claim some smilies.

Last day and heading home today, so it was kind of a "Map Clean up" day and just to try and grab some more in and around Anglesea and on the way home.

Coming soon..... Yep I still have a few left down in this area to grab and not doubt by the time that comes around there may be a few newer ones.

But this cache was a doosie, and it took some time till i found the right and easy way into GZ.
