It has finally come time to archive this series as the council is not going to keep the walk maintained and it has been diverted to no longer going in a link.

Walking back from one of the newer caches here I noticed this one just lying on the ground! I couldn't recall exactly where it should be so put it under some rocks at the back of the tree. Having now read the hint, it appears that large chunks have come off the tree.

I had been meaning to do this series for a while, but ended up finally getting it done today during a big day of caching in Bacchus Marsh with a geocaching crew from Geelong and Ballarat.
I was walking a little behind at this stage, and by the time I got to GZ, the cache had already been found.
Thanks for the series, sorceysal.

This was find number 25 on a huge day of caching spent in and around Bacchus Marsh. We started out in Lara with an early morning flash mob event and then hit the road, caching our way towards The Marsh where we added a couple of the Ballarat crew to our number. And so with Na'wal, Frog_Lady, ThePacman, The_Tritonz, Roads75, Wozzle68, ST37E, DAB and Jacko83 we drove, walked, waded, scrambled and slid Surprised our way to a total for me of 36 caches.
we continued our stroll along the river and soon had our hands on this guy, signed the log and continued on our way.
Thanks sourceysal Big Grin!

A group trip including Frog_Lady, Buckleysbabe, the Pacman, the Tritonz, Roads75, Wozzle68, ST37E, DAB, Jacko83. It was a fantastic day that we had traveling from Geelong into Bacchus Marsh. Some very clever hides were found, plenty of laughs and great company.

Find number 7 of 27 today. I deployed my pretty capable mountain bike for the trek this afternoon, glad I did as it made everything pretty easy, especially the ride back to the car. All of the cache were found in the series, some taking longer than others. I little run in with some stinging nettle but that's just a another caching day for me in Spring! My thanks to sorceysal for the cache, and the series.

It's Torment Your Daughter Day, er, parent-teacher interviews, so Miss Teenager and I have the pleasure of each other's company. As her idea off a good time is with her nose in a novel, she may as well be in the passenger seat of the car as lounging around the house. So, let's start on the great number of hides in Bacchus Marsh.



If the teenager thought she was just going to laze in the passenger seat of the car all day, she was dreaming. I needed a bit of a leg stretch, which meant guess who would be accompanying me. This, after all, is the reason we've come this way.



Ten caches in a four klick loop? Perfect for a fine sunny day.



Daughter: 'We're not going along THERE, are we?' I love these narrow bits, but I gather she's not a fan. A nice easy walk-up grab in the sunshine.

Having spent the morning in Lerderderg State Park hunting some high terrain caches with Ahomburg, we still had some time to hunt for some local caches before making the drive back to HQ. After refueling and having lunch had a local Fish n' Chip shop, spent the following 2 hours walking around the local river and golf course collecting a number of good caches. By now the weather was ideal with temperature around 25 but it felt warmer then that and glad I had the sunscreen on.

Another quick find as we powered around the golf course this afternoon, doing this nice series. Enjoyed the hunt. TFTC sorceysal

Find # 2713
Date 24th Mar 2013
Time 3:15 PM

Finally, my caching partner in crime SedgwickDave had returned from a trip out west so it was time for another caching run, this time in Lerderderg State Park, hopefully to grab a FTF and a D / T Combo that both Dave and I had not yet been able to get. The weather forecast was looking good with a max around 25, so Dave picked me up from my place for an early start.

Another nice little hide, quick find thanks to great co ords.

Thanks again to sorceysal for the cache. TNLN

A stroll up from the previous cache and here we were at another one along the track. This was a much easier find, so there were no problems here today. Not a sould in sight today either.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks sorceysal for this cache series here today.

We decided to finish the old year doing our favourite thing "Geocaching" Our 3rd find for the day and our 2nd one of the series that certainly proved a challenge for us mature geocachers!! Enjoyed the view of the river and the golf course where there were quite a few muggles enjoying themselves on this beautiful morning. TFTC sorceysal and giving us the opportunity to visit the area your series covers.
A very Happy Healthy New Year to you and yours!

Found it with the new GPS the Geokids gave me for Xmas this was a quick one to do and we noticed how clean the water was here I one thing I would keep a look out is winter time as this river can get very high with water level but a nice spot for a cache TFTC Merry Xmas
 
25-Dec-12
A quick jog out here this morning and the cache was in hand. A quick jog back to the car to get ready for Xmas lunch in Eltham.
This is a really nice walk, a pity the council doesn't clean up the weed and make it even better. No snakes and unfortunately no gold either. Grandkids love playing in the rocks further down stream too.
Thanks for the history sorceysal and the cache. TNLN

The last The Demolition Crew night caching run for the year started in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne (as usual) and went all the way to the Melton / Bacchus Marsh area. Caching during the day and into the wee hours of the morning, the crew had a great laugh as we drove the roads and grabbed the caches. The highlight of the night was definately the high terrain caches in the area, which were attempted at night. I appologise to all the CO's for this generic log, but as I was away from a pc and internet for some time I have several hundred caches to log, and I cannot remember them all. My thanks to you for the cache placement.
 
18-Dec-12
Another legendary TDC (The Demolition Crew) night caching run with the crew being myself, Quasar3671, TrailRunning and RebelActs, which took us all over the place... Starting in the Eastern Suburbs and then headed out west as far as the Bacchus Marsh area, and even took in some more of the harder Werribee Gorge caches. A large bag of finds for the night, great company as usual, and lots of laughs and great stories. My thanks to all the CO's for their great hides, which as usual, made the night possible. Apologies for some generic logs, I will do my best to remember all the finds.

Went for nice night walk to these 5 caches in the series. Thanks for the entertainment on finding and walking to these caches.
 
18-Dec-12
Myself and my fellow TDC mates (Rebel Acts, Trailrunning and Blacklegend) had planned a big night of caching which had us starting in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne and moving on through Bacchus Marsh and on into Werribee Gorge where we did some more challenging caches. We had a list of solved puzzles to collect along with the usual plethora of trads.
The weather was perfect for caching during the night and we all had a great time finding the various range of cache hides and types. We did a fair bit of walking / hiking during the latter part of the night, especially around the Werribee Gorge, which we found to be extremely challenging and well worth the effort.
We walked and completed this short series of caches tonight. We had fun looking for and finding each cache as we made our way around the tracks. Thanks sorceysal.
 
18-Dec-12
This was, cache # 50 of 58 finds for the Day/Night on another big run for the TDC, once again we had lots of laughs, saw some great places and some excellent caches. A great night was had by all. first in the series, enjoyed the walk. My thanks to sorceysal for the cache.

I set out from the carpark here to do the loop walk. I had asked featherdown to met me later at #5. It was a cool morning and a light shower of rain fell. Most un summerlike after the past few days.
Nice easy start to the series here.
 
14-Dec-12
Enjoyed the walk along the stream between showers and made the easy find. Went back to the car to try the others from the other end.
 
09-Dec-12
With an afternoon free and a dog badly in need of some attention, I decided to grab a few of these new caches placed by the 'new kid in town'. A beaut day for the walk along the river, and a swim for Tess. This one is a brave hide, a little exposed, but hopefully enough away from the path to be safe enough. Thanks sorceysal
