Came to try this one, but all I could find at the starting coordinate was a worn out dyno label with nothing visible on it as the water has been leaking over it for a long time.
Had a good look around WP1 for anything that would help us go further in our quest, but no luck today
After a pretty full morning on the Little Para trail, I needed one more to get to #2600 so as this was close to the drop off location for the day I went out with a little help and got this cache...no one at GZ today so made the find easily...TFTC M-SEZ
Found this on a lovely afternoon caching with JJ52 and Ismartis to help Ismartis find her 3000th cache. We were happy to find a Freddo, Zytheran and *Cache_or_Check* cache to mark this momentous occasion. Glad to get this off my solved but unfounded list. First got the final coords when it was a puzzle that need two Trads to be found.
Thanks for the cache.
Thanks for the cache.
Out for a great afternoon with Ismartis and Gral4 to help Ismartis celebrate her 3000th find. [^] We had done the 3000th and wanted to do a couple more before calling it a day.
Gral4 had final co-ordinates for this one but we wanted to find the waypoints ourselves. We had no trouble with waypoint one after a photo was taken as it was very difficult to read.
We head off to waypoint 2 where the others 2 had previously found the trad and we found the old cache container, but could not find any sign of a waypoint. [?] We searched around and around the structure and even looked in the old log book which was hard as it had been very wet recently. We gave up on that one and headed to the final for a quick find just as it was getting dark.

I was out caching today with my friends JJ52 and Gral4 on a great winter's afternoon to get me to 3000 finds . We started the afternoon with a bang at Bang Bang and did some good caches, including 2 Freddo's, a Cache_or_Check and a Zytheran puzzle , so the bangs just kept on coming . Then JJ and I went out for a celebratory dinner [^]
Lots of fun was had by all .
This was our last cache of the day and we found WP1 after a few minutes looking in the wrong places. Then we spent a few more minutes trying to read the faded coordinates and then walked to WP2. WP2 was very deja-va for me, and I realised I had been here to find a cache before . We actually found the old cache again, in poor condition, as it has been water affected and lying on the ground. Couldn't find anything else here, so not sure what WP2 was/is or if its even there [?] If it's the old cache the coordinates are now unreadable due to water damage
Luckily the 3rd member of our team had done the 1st 2 stages long ago and had the final so we were still able to go make the find after elevating the old cache in a more suitable location .
Enjoyed the walk and the parks, TFTC M-SEZ [^]

We found the original cache at the second site, and have moved it to ground level, but couldn't locate the new clue! Original cache was quite wet...
Missed out on this one last year after someone had removed the feature at GZ .
Well, today was different and we quickly found the cache while all was quiet .

Had to wait for all the crossing muggles to disperse [8)] before putting it back and heading off to our next.
Thanks M-SEZ.

Found this one with a PAF. I was out caching and was going for the Daly doubles... did one... couldn't find the other. After speaking with bgmat who found them previously he lead me to the puzzle.
Thanks M-Sez for the cache. I was so confident in the cache location I did not even turn off the car engine. Reached GZ and felt the spot indicated by the hint and there it was. Signed log and returned the cache to its spot. Loved this combination TFTC.
Given previous DNF's and also 2 of my visits which did not find the cache and also I completely understand the hint and the cache title also provides a clue, I am confident that the cache has been muggled. Can we please arrange a check? Thanks
Looked for hours, no where to be found! Really want to complete the puzzle!
Couldn't find anything, came late at night.... Searched high and low... I will return and give it another go...
Since we had finally found all the numbers we needed, it was a short drive over here to claim a find on this one - or so we thought.
There has been a very obvious change here and it looks to be recent .
We suspect that not only has someone stolen the cache - and they stole your bike as well [:(!][xx(].
This may be in need of maintenance - or we need our eyes checked again [|)]. Looks like we're not the first to strike trouble with this series .
Thanks M-SEZ - we'll be back . . .

Arrived at GZ and went straight to where the cache was hidden. A couple of muggles meant we couldn't look straight away so we went to the pine log fence to sit and read some logs. We were further convinced we were on the right track from these and by now there was only one muggle left who was loitering with his muggle mutt seemingly just watching what we were up to. One of the logs mentioned that there was a munzee nearby so Mrs TiedyeSmileys decided to go check that out in the hope of distracting the muggle. It turned out he was more interested in his muggle mutt saying hello to our geo mutt so while Mrs TiedyeSmileys facilitated that meeting, Mr TiedyeSmileys went and maid a quick grab and sign of the cache.

I do love it when the figures lead to a cache, thanks for the cache, never knew this park was here
We had a good guess of where this could be hidden even before confirming the coordinates from the nearby duo of traditionals, but we became cautious when we saw GZ. Fortunately, the weather today must have discouraged the local muggles to visit this place and we could conduct our search undisturbed. A short while later we had the cache in hand! TNLNSL TFTC
Today I finally completed this mini series after starting it 3 months ago. At the time the bonus clue in Zoe was missing. Quite a difficult find for me at the final but thankfully there were no muggles around during my search. Thanks for the cache.

A nice little series, though I'm not a fan of this particular style of hide. TFTC
We would suggest that you search for this cache early in the morning or in the evening otherwise you are likely to find muggles there. TFTC
Same saga as TM, months in the making. Now very pleased to complete the find, sign the logbook and have another question mark disappear of the face of the earth. Thanks for the puzzle M-SEZ!

This has been a saga. Collected first set of numbers but couldn't collect the second. Came back for the second but the cache had gone AWOL. In the meantime, lost my notebook with the first set of numbers. Came back to get both sets only to grab the second then head to the first only to find a guy rolling the pitches in the practise nets (with a very watchful eye on me). Another trip back and I had all the numbers I needed so it was a quick drive to gather this final. It was not to be. The cache was AWOL! Waiting, watching, waiting, watching and then the log I had been waiting for. Back today to claim the prize...................finally. TFTC M-SEZ.

Third times the charm they say. I must say its much easier to log a cache when there is a log to find.
Out and about with M-SEZ and Sneaky Squeaky dong a bit of cache maintenance, we only managed a few finds but had a lot of laughs along the way and was shown some really cool places around the Burnside area, i look forward to the next outing. TFTC

Sorry for the delay, folks. The cache had disappeared. It has been replaced thanks to 3LG!
Spent 20 minutes trying to find this one. I will definitely go back later to try and find it. Keen to find it eventually. TFTC!
After watching Ethan from afar being found then lost then found then lost; I managed to lose my notes with the info for the other half. Had to head back and do both. Got Ethan but a guy rolling the wickets was way to watchful for my liking. Another trip back and the all the numbers were obtained. Headed to GZ only to find more muggles. Came back today, knowing exactly where to look based on the clue and............................................NOTHING!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggh! I will not rest until this cache is found. M-SEZ - Help me!

Finally found the first two and now I get to the final and I can't find that!!!
This is a late dnf, but appears it will be timely enough. Searched for this one with Liz & Bruce and honeysucker on their quest for their 20,000th find (no that's not a typo). None of us were able to spot the cache despite the fact that honeysucker has found it before. Perhaps it needs a check? Thanks M-SEZ

Got the coordinates for this one the other day when we did the "Daly Double". Returned today to find cache. Had a good idea where to look. SM1 grabbed and SMmum signed. Muggles with kiddies playing nearby didn't notice us. TFTC.

Great hide, found with gussy j. We found the traditionals a while, but didn't know about puzzles back then. Went back to collect coords only to find that Ethan was gone!! Phew, thankfully it had just moved nearby. With coords in hand set of to the final. Grabbed the cache, signed and returned and left. I love puzzles that don't melt your brain!! Tftc M-SEZ! ;-D

Needed a cache to fill in the grid. Had solved this some weeks ago, but couldn't find on first attempt. A previous log gave us a very good idea where it would be. Did a lot of feeling and poking, but was just about to leave when a thought sprung to mind and bingo, there it was. Not sure what the clue actually means. Thanx
Being so close to these three Daly caches, I figured I would finally do the locus cache and get them off of my GPSr in one hit!
All three were quick easy finds and I really needed and enjoyed that motorbike ride as I was in my car

With all the info it was time to call past and pick up the cache lucky for us it was muggle free today TFTC
Honeysucker kindly offered to chauffeur Alansee and us around today before we headed out to Murray Bridge as he knew this area very well.
We had just found the required caches and as this one was not too far off we headed here. We normally avoid hides in places like these but can see why you choose it.
The whole area was deserted so we thought we would give it a try. Good co ordinates had us at a likely location and the cache was in hand in the first place we looked and we all signed the log.
Again our thanks M-SEZ for a nice first mystery and one we could solve easily.

Found with Team Crackers. After having done the two lead up caches it was an easy matter to feed in the numbers and make our way here.
Found after finding the two corresponding caches! After 400 caches, it was about time for a mystery cache - they've always been daunting to me. So this one was a good start - hopefully there are many more to come! Quickly found jn a deserted playground! TFTC
No muggles around this time as we seen a couple smooching on the bench on a drive by.. Thanks for the cache.
A return to do this Unknown cache meant we had to go back and get a clue that we forgot to get last time. Found easily enough, even managed to find a Munzee nearby by accident.

Had to re-check out the other cache which had not been muggled after locating Ethan. Then put a wrong number in and ended up going towards the hills (doh). With the correct co-ords the cache was found quickly as there was no-one near the GZ. Thanks M-SEZ.
A quick find with Alex-thesquirrel and Pat. Coords were spot on! Visited a few trackables through, but couldn't leave as they were too big, TFTC
One of the Daly Doubles has been muggled again. Although this cache is still in place, if you haven't already collected the clues it may be a bit harder. I'll get on to it soon though.
Armed with the final coordinates for this cache I set out to make it a quartet of M-Sez finds for the evening. But GZ was occupied by two teenage girls busily texting with their I-phones. I didn’t know which way to turn to avoid being caught.
They must have had the desired reply though as, just about when I was going to give up, they stood up an walked away leaving the place free for me to make the find.

Found while out for a Sunday morning cache run while the rest of the family drive back from the football in Melbourne.
After getting the last half of the numbers it was a quick find.
No-one at 7.20am, wonder why.

May as well finish this one off today Was a bit difficult with a few muggles in the park, but managed to make the find when they were busy eating their lunch. Took some interest in a few different areas of the park to help with stealth even distracted the yound muggle boy with a ball found in the park. Thanks for the caches! my 850th find!
After finding the two corresponding traditional caches over the last two days, decided to go for the hat trick today! Managed to arrive at the GZ at night right inbetween bouts of rain, and with perfect coords had the cache in hand very quickly! TFTC M-SEZ!
I did this one totally Bob-style, partly by accident, as I was trying to work out where it was while at work. It didn't help entering the wrong coordinates twice When they finally gave a plausible location on Googlemaps, and I thought about the clue, it finally came together.
Thanks M-SEZ for a distraction "on the way" to work.

Owl searched while Raven played on the equipment. Nothing. Owl was driving away when she realised she hadn't searched the obvious spot. (These things are always obvious in hindsight.) Bit nervous about putting fingers there, but success!
I'm slowly cleaning this area out, again.
Thanks for the cache and mini-series M-SEZ.

After picking up the two Daly caches, a quick trip over here to pickup the final puzzle cache. Fortunately no-one about in such cold miserable weather. I put on the high-vis vest just incase any muggles would wonder what I was doing.
Found the cache pretty quickly, once I started to look in the right place.
Signed the log. Thanks for the quick puzzle cache M-SEZ.

Found with e.greory1 and Andre817. Had to use a bit of logic to find this as we couldn't find Ethan. TFTC
After finding Zoe but not Ethan this morning, we did a quick calculation, used some logic and were fortunate to quickly find this one with only half the information. Thanks M-SEZ for the cache.
Found this quickly at night after working out the puzzle. From what we could see, it was a nice park!

Found the other two a while ago but as I hadnt engaged my brain (....that new wonder head filler!!!) I hadnt realized there was Info to collect. So it was back to Ethan and Zoe and then accross to this GZ. Grew up about 500m west of here..... we used to fly kites and race our go-karts here(do kids ever do that any more!!??!! Thanks M-SEZ for a nice easy "?" hide!!
After meeting Ethan and Zoe we had all the info we needed to find the final. Once at GZ we had no trouble finding the cache. We enjoyed the environment before taking off to find some breakfast.
Thank you sietmozo for a fun morning of geocaching

Not sure what the clue really meant even after I had the caching in my hot little hand. Nice quick series in 2 parks I had not been in for some time.
Thanks to M-SEZ (sietmozo) and clear skies from TeamAstro.
Our first ever mystery cache. Great hide, made for a nice sunday fun. Geoson. Got muggled and needed stealth to put it back.
Well after finding Ethan and Zoe and the clues.. Megsie and I decided to keep on with the cache mission for the night.. After some confusion about putting way points into the phone, we found GZ and quickly had the cache in hand.. Great night caching.. Thanks heaps sietmozo...
WOHOOOO.. and that's the trifecta!!.. FTF @ 10.15pm ..took too long to find this one.. and mrs scoobster puts the blame for that squarely on Mr honeysucker and his inability to give the right co-ords!!!... LOL.. after looking in the wrong place for about 10 mins.. mrs scoobster reworked the co-ords...then rang mr scoobster and to tell him. "ohh that's the right co-ords to start with' he says.. miscommunication.. !! (again.. Mr honeysucker's fault!!).. so off they went to GZ.. quickly had cache in hand!
Nice puzzle guys.. nice, easy, but adventurous too.. took us to a nice park and surrounding area! Well done!

Reading the other log that goes with this i think i have been framed.In my defence Mrs Scoobster is ill and prob not listening properly between throwing up's. I had it on my hand right and some dyslexia crept in somewhere but all was good we got the cache any way. Thanks Heidi for working it out i think
