Bandicoot Tour Cranbourne South, Victoria, Australia
By C@H on 14-Mar-12. Waypoint GC3EKDN

I cannot see any information that suggests to me that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement - one or more of the following applies:

- Cache Owner unable to maintain cache
- No response from the cache owner.
- No cache to find or log to sign.
- It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.
- Cache has been abandoned by cache owner/cache in disrepair

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to also prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the next 28 days, just contact a reviewer (by email and include GC number in cache name) and, assuming it still meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

If there are components or remnants of the cache and you haven't already done so, please return to the GZ and collect the cache (or remnants). We don't want to litter our environment with Geotrash.

Should you wish to replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Panning to get out there in the next week or two and refresh this series.

Did not find (

We couldn't find it either,,,, needs to be maintained or archived !!!!

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Looks gone to me

Signs of where it used to be - but doesn't appear to be there now

Unfortunately doesn't appear to be here.

Hunted around for 15 mins. I think it's gone now

Appears to have been taken

Hey! I wasn't able to find this cache, however I could see (worn down vertical) signs that this cache WAS here, and his since been removed. Love the area, glad the others in this series are here to find Please replace the cache container soon though as I would love to find it!

A quick and easy find as we ducked away from our friends daughters 1st birthday party. Log book needs replacing

Kids loved this one because of the playground .... Good stopover to let them have some fun
With RangerDF
TFTC !!

Kids are loving the nearby playground TFTC

Nice and easy find!

Easy kids find

Another easy find for the kids.

My geo partner, Tassie Expat, spent a morning exploring this unsuspecting park and enjoyed the different walks amongst the trees and animals. Thanks very much for making the time to place these caches. Quick find. Note that the log is nearly full. TFTC

Found quickly with frmen1, who shielded me from the muggles picnicking in the lovely area. We also saw a wallaby creeping up on them, probably hopeful of a snack. The log book is full if you want to write chronologically, but plenty of spaces if you are happy to write anywhere. This was the last of the Bandicoot series (except for a dnf with the multi). Thanks for all that you have done. We would never have come to the area without them being here. Off to get a medicinal latte to help my nerves post Copperhead sighting on the southern part of the park. TFTC

Thanks for the cache. Great kids picnic spot

Thanks guys

A perfect day for a caching run around the bush tracks of the Botanical Gardens. Thanks C@H for an excellent series.

I need to give the series a couple of stars so one here.

It was a very hot day for a walk, but one consolation was that the area was completely deserted, which made for a quick and easy find. Actually, there was one other visitor to the gardens, but I think they were more interested in staying out of the light and clinging to the top of the beam. Thanks for the cache.

What a neat playground.....not what I was expecting to find at all. No one there today so it made for a quick find. TFTC

Awesome find. Beware of muggles!! TFTC!

Lots and lots of muggles had to use a lot of stealth tftc

Yay, geocaching mojo is back! Found with Tripze. TNLN SL TFTC log book needs replacing soon

First find in the CBG! TFTC

Yay

Good hiding spot

Quick find. Nice walk. Thankyou

Watch out for all the muggles

Tftc

Quick find by geokid whilst on the way to the park. Dropped off TB. Last day before we go back to England. TFTC

Ka-karot - singed a post it note, but needs a new log book. Tftc

Quick find by geogirl.

Nice and easy. Needs new log book! TFTC

Near the end now. Great picnic area. Next time, we'll bring food with us. Thanks again!

TFTC

Found with tonytoad during a bike ride from Hallam & back. tftc.

Needs a pen

Easy find on our outing around the outer circuit track.

TFTC

Out for the day visiting friends for a bbq there was a suggestion to take a walk through these gardens. We had been here quite a few years ago and we have found some amazing changes. On our leisurely ramble around the park we picked up this easy find.
Thanks for the cache C@H

Found, log book is full

Out for a winter ramble on a rare sunny day.

Great area for geo child

Cool

Take none left none

Walked all the way up and over the hill just for this cache as it was the last traditional one in the gardens. Very happy I saw all those bandicoots, even though we never once saw a real one! TFTC

Found this cache may last year, while on a JOTT walk with the region cub scouts. Only just realised today that I hadn't logged it when I was stalking someone else's finds and thought to myself, haven't I already found those. Apologies for that.

TFTC!!

As mentioned in my 'found it' log, the log book for this cache is full and needs a new one. Not having a spare log book that would fit in the cache I couldn't help out the CO.

A couple of muggle families were very close to ground zero as I honed in on the cache, but they didn't even notice I was there, so I made a quick and easy find and signed the log.

Like the previous 'Bandicoot Maybe' cache the log book is full, and not having a spare to fit in the cache, I couldn't help out and replace it.

TNLNSL - TFTC

Found while wandering around the gardens

Out with geokid and introducing friends to caching. Tftc

After having a lovely mothers day lunch cooked by my sister we finished up and they were going to go for a walk along the beach so being quite cool I excused myself and went caching instead on my back home. It turned out very well and I found all 12 of 12 that I looked for which is very rare for me.
I arrived in the gardens just after 3pm and the car park was nearly full and people everywhere so I thought it might be a tough couple of hours of finds before the place closes at 5pm but it turned out ok.
After being muggled out I wandered down the nearby path and found the blingy girly cache and then returned here to find no muggles this time so a nice easy find was made.
Thanks C@H for the cache, the hunt and the fun.

Great spot to stop. Will have to bring some sausages next time and fire up that barby! Thanks for hiding a cache here!

LOL... If its not school kids, then its Werribbie Zoo rangers having a picnic. Oh well....
TFTC TNLN
Great series. Thanks C@H

Found but due to Muggle activity did not retrieve to sign the log. Still a few more in the area we need to find so will sign log during our next visit. TFTC.

Nice walk through the park. No muggles at the picnic area.
TFTH. Signed log.

Another Awesome Autumn day and school holidays and asked the kids what they wanted to do.. Sillly Question really GEOCACHE of course.

Had been wanting to go to these gardens for some years now and have always commented on them when driving past the sign usually on the way down to Philip Island or Wilson's Prom.... So today we finally made it there and were quite glad that we did.

Had lunch at the Stringybark picnic ground and made our way tot eh visitors centre and did our caches from there.


Beware of bull ant nest! Both master rennige and mrs rennige got bitten.

New log book needed.

Nice quick find.

Lot's of infrustructure here for an area that seams to be in the middle of nowhere.

Great to see.

TFTC

TFTC great play ground near by

Tftc

Found @ 10:44am, find # 3013.
I had the morning to fill in before the afternoon trip so what a better way than find a few caches.
I still had a number of caches to find in this area, so I jumped onto my bike and I was off.
As I had already found a couple of these previously I knew where to find them.
Thanks to C@H for placing this cache.

Nice one. STSL. TFTC

The last one for me in this park today. I had never seen a bandicoot before but while we were looking at the great new gardens development there was one in there quite unperturbed by all the people. Cute little thing!

Lucky for that wall along the end of the shelter. There were a ton of muggles picnicking today but luckily all out of view.

TFTC

Found by the geo kid - she's loving this series, a good walk and fun finds

Another easy find although.... Soooooo many muggles out for Boxing Day lunch!

Took the meercat, we had to be sneaky with lots of people around!

Nice stroll in before a lunch meeting at the nearby cafe.
Thanks

Gotcha !!! TFTC

Stealth mode on.

The geokid and I had a great time today.

Great little spot for the geo kids to have a climb. Lots of water around the spider climbing frame today after the recent rains.

Quick find whilst on a caching ride around the park. TFTC.

STOPED WITH THE CUBS AND HAD SOME LUNCH AND USE OF THE PLAYGROUND FOUND THIS ONE ON THE WAY OUT EASY HIDE

Whee! Nice downhill stretch to this cache made it an absolute blast! Found on a day out on the pushbikes. We probably could've just walked around the park, but the pedalies made it that bit more fun!

Starting to get the hang out these Bandicoot caches, so it was a very quick find. Signed log and replaced carefully, then headed off for the next one. Thanks for the cache!

Date: 11 May 2013
Time: 12:33pm
Find # 2846

This cache was number twelve for the day as I continued on my mini caching tour of the Cranbourne area. I had done most of the trad caches in this park a couple of years back, but it was about time to return and finish off the job. This was the last one for me in this park but I had a fear that I would be muggled out of it due to a lot of people about having picnics and BBQ's at the nearby facility. Anyway, luck was on my side, stealth mode enacted and the cache was quickly grabbed, signed and replaced.

Thanks to C@H for the cache. TNLN
