#1135 - 7.05pm
After a visit to the geo-mum with The Black Minion, I found myself free to get my daily smiley on the way home. I had changed my map filters during the day and discovered this cache which I hadn't noticed before. Maybe due to its disabled state...
It was night when I arrived. All I had to do was cross the cricket oval. Due to all day rain yesterday, I chose to change into my new hiking boots - just in case...
I headed out into the deserted darkness with bats flying silently overhead, and what looked like a cricket oval on the map was actually a broad paddock of knee high wet grass growing atop a bed of soft, sloshy mud.
I may have looked to an easier grab if I'd been able to assess the lay of the land from the carpark but I had already found myself in the lush bog by the time I realised. I'm sure this area isn't visited often at this time of year, but at least it's a good time to avoid 'wriggly sticks'.
The cache was found easily with good coordinates and I signed the soggy logbook before making the long, slushy walk back.
Thanks for showing me a new a new corner of the park, jdownie. Hopefully the cache gets the TLC it needs or else I might be the 300th and final finder...

### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED?** ###
I notice from one or more recent log entries that **this cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.** Therefore, I am temporarily disabling it so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Strolled around taking Autumn photos, getting closer to GZ. Once the GPS settled an easy find. Thanks jdownie for another reason to visit this great park.

Log books, very very wet and mouldy. I emptied out the water as best I could. Lid doesn't close very well. Needs some TLC.

This geocacher reported that the container is damaged.

First find for nick

Found quickly while out searching with Lurine, as others have mentioned previously, contents and log are wet and mouldy.

Yay found it!!! Was a very easy find but should have worn longer pants because the grass itched my legs...

Geonephew found it really quickly but contents are as said very damp and wet... signing book was soaked through too...

Found it - thank you! Unfortunately the contents are all damp and starting to go moldy

First ever find! Thanks. Accurate coordinates

Got to GZ just as some muggles started playing nearby. Finally after searching around a bit had the cache in hand.

Quite an easy find, found with friends. A wet and wild day I have to say. Tftc

Great easy find! TFTC

Lid was off contents wet, easy first find

Co-ords were being a little funky but found it in the end. A nice easy one on a beautiful sunny day. Found with Sarrbear. Thanks for the cache.

We made it way harder for ourselves, ended up being easy. TFTC

Found this one on our family picnic with a waffle egg

Found while having a family picnic
TFTC

Thanks for the fun we left a surprise don't get scared it's not real

Tried for this one last year in the dark. No luck then but easier today for a quick find thanks for the trad cache - picked up trackable. Grass very long on approach from side track today !

I walked the dog through the park this morning, and thought there should be a cache nearby. I pulled out the phone and bingo, there it was. tftc.

Great cache, Thankyou!

Nice find Thanks...

Found some time ago

Make sure you have your runners for this one x

Definitely a trek into the bush! Loved the little log book

Thanks for the find

After a 2 week hiatus from riding due to Xmas gatherings, it was a ride from Ringwood golf course to grab a few caches. After a DNF on a multi, I started another multi that had a lot of waypoints, so I stopped along the way and diverted here. The grass looks long but once I was over the edge GZ was clear, thanks for the cache out here

Cool little cache

Out and about doing some training for the Oxfam Trailwalker event. Today I walked 16km from Chadstone to Jells Park. I had found most of the caches along the way previously but this was one near to my end point. I actually took the long way around to it so probably gained my an extra km of training. Even then I approached from a difficult way I feel as once I found the cache there was a much easier exit route! Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache jdownie.

#2 today! Long grass but good caching

A nice walk in the park, accidentally walked through much overgrown grass and sticks. Try not to do that.
Thanks for the cache!

GeoChong and friend found it

Found cache with Heany Park cubs!

Nice walk around the park. Got to GZ. Cache in hand. TFTC

Found after a bit o

Bit wet and squelchy but we found it. Thanks jdownie.

Nocie litle find. Also may have written in thr wrong side

a bit squishy to get to with the rain.

Found it! And some new Geocachers!

First one down!!! I can see how this will become addictive.

Good spot.

With the roar of wind through the overhead power cables it was an otherwise nice day. No rain as yet.
Thanks for the cache Jdownie.

Nice sneeky part of the park.
Thanks jdownie.
Chiefton!!!

Found it with Victoria and Judith today. Nothing like a walk in the park in the rain.

It was pouring with rain, we'd just run aground on a multi after walking a couple of km, the kids were very wet and a bit bored, so we thought we'd go and grab this trad to make it all better again. The long grass was pretty saturated and you don't get into areas like this without getting wet trousers- unless, like me, you wear shorts! Then you just get wet shoes! Unless like Judith, you wear pretty spunky hiking boots (take a moment to drool over those, they were goooooood shoes) unfortunately for Sezzy - she had boots like mine and trousers like Judith so she was a tad damp all over. But she did have cool sunnies.

Nice size hide, dry log, everything was terrific!

Found it! Thank you!

#TEAMWHAT

Found after little bit of looking!

Found after grabbing a few caches in this neck of the woods, slightly tricky to spot but otherwise an enjoyable hide. Thanks jdownie for the cache.

Well hidden, took as a while to find it.

TFTF! We went through the swamp but was a fun find for koolkat kid!

Omegaman1971
With the sun out on this winter morning, couldn't think of anything better than collecting some caches. Nice and easy find but my shoes got soaking wet! Should have walked the most direct root.
Cheers for the cache

It was a rather good one.

Fun find!

Well, even though Jesse had hi-coughs and was really tired he found it. Start at the play ground it is not so wet in the grass. Nice cache.

The grass was very wet.

Busy here today for school cross country. Quick find thanks

Having missed out on a walk with my club I took off to this park to do a bit of walking. There were joggers everywhere doing the Saturday morning fitness jog. Had a lovely walk around the lake and then off to my daughters fete.
Cache is in good order. Thanks for the cache jdownie

TFTC

Thanks for the hide

We let the kids find this one!

### Find **# 3528** Traditional **#2752** ###

After visiting my Nan for her 87th birthday, we made our way to Jells Park. I have been here a huge amount of times over the years. We enjoyed a nice lunch with my folks before the geo kiddies and their nanna went to find this one. I think Nanna was just as excited to find this as the geo kiddies. No swaps in container but a nice easy one for the kids to find. Now off to see the ducks... Signed and returned as found.

**Thanks for this trad cache, j downie.** [^]
**Log and container in good condition.**
**Took Nothing, Left Nothing.**

I had a hole in my caching calendar and was trying to work out the best one to head towards given the light was fading very quickly. I ended up choosing this one and taking a detour home. I was pleased that it was a nice straightforward find even by bike light (light had totally gone by the time I arrived) - I didn't have to spend too much time foraging! TFTC!

Kids had to help me with this one

Found with help of Grandchildren .

A day out for our bdays. A detour for a geocache!

Found it, left a small token, thanks!

Found with the geo family

Parked on the wrong side of the road and eventually turned my phone around. Quick walk on a quiet night with high tension cable work still going on in the area. Was an equally quick find with accurate coordinates and a quiet walk back to the car through the park. TFTC JDownie

New it was around here!

Nice tidy log and setup. TFTC

Found while running a scout geocache event for 1st Rowville Cubs. Educated a muggle parent on this real cache who wants to take his kids caching now!

My very first cache.. Thanks

Grabbed this one while setting a caching night for a cub pack also being leap day I needed to fill the day in the calendar or wait another year Tftc

Found, thank you

Nice easy find after a short search of the immediate area tftc

Easy find in a great park. My gps was a little jumpy, but just follow your instincts in general location. Tftc!

Yet another easy find for Sexton Hardcastle & Co.

Nice, easy cache. TFTC

TFTC!

Looked around alot but couldn't find it.

Took me a while but finally cound it

Found this one on returning from the nearby multis. Initially took the wrong track and took an ill-advised shortcut across soggy grass. Cache swiftly revealed itself once in the right area. Thanks jdownie!

Like the previous comment, was a little sceptical of heading into long grass on a hot day. Good little hiding place.

Couldn't find this one! Went to the spot shown in the photos and couldn't see anything after a 20 minute search. We also ran into a snake so you need to be quite careful with this one.

Nice easy find, thanks!

Nice easy find but definitely have to be discreet due to how remote the area is from the general layout of this area of the park. Probably should have not done it in my hi vis

Good spot

Grabbed a Tb Tftc

1st ftg scouts were here

Had to meet someone nearby to pickup stuff for the mega, but they were running late. So what else but find a cache.

Out for our walk and a cache as well. A nice easy find as the cache was somewhat exposed. Did ensure it was well covered but obvious to fellow cachers when we left. TFTC TNLN

I had the impression I logged this one a long time ago, but it seems that it had an error on my mobile. Therefore, the say of this log might not be precise
I left a robot travel bug in here.
