Gone to the Dogs 2: Undergrowth Moorabbin, Victoria, Australia
By Two_Drews on 11-Jan-13. Waypoint GC446YG

Cace is gone, it's had its run.

Grabbing some caches with omegama1971 and Happy pants and this was one of the few we couldn't find. Look about in all the logs and other likely place but nothing found. One of the logs had been split in 2 with no hiding spot left. Hard to believe there has been no other DNF since April, with all the other finds nearby. Needs a check from CO.

Yeah we got it! Well camo'd and easy to find - thanks GPS was confused about 10m out.

Yet another one logged.
TFTC

Quick found with no muggles in sight. Collected the container and moved away to sign the log and muggles and their dogs appeared from everywhere. After a brief chat with someone found somewhere quieter and retrieved a damp log to sign. Again a need to be wary while replacing. TFTC

Nice park for a walk. Got to GZ. Looked in all the spots. No good. Just about to give up and something catch my eye. Cache in hand. Log almost dry. TFTC

That was harder than I anticipated. Even with the clue that gz coords were about 10m out...I ended up finding cache about 20m from where my gps was pointing. Log is pretty soaked too.

Its a found, but about 12 m away from zero by our gizmo. Wet log needs a good dry out as it was hard to write our name.

Found after much searching! Difficult to find but is as description. Keep looking!

There's no undergrowth and no logs other than "dog logs" and I checked those over too (with a stick of course)

Found it with Elphin geokid!

Tftf second time lucky. Found with mark9375, coordinates were around 10m off today. Thanks

Nice easy cache coords a bit off tftc

GPS had us quite a bit off track, but persistent geo kiddies got to log it in the end. Never been around here before so we enjoyed the walk.

Found it.not without bumping my head on a branch. Good spot of a 'log'.

This is day 25 of our trip out of Sydney touring the southern states of Victoria and Tasmania.

This cache was quickly found as it was in the exact place as indicated by the available information. After the log had been signed the cache was replaced as found. TFTC.

Geokid onto it like a hot snot. TFTC.

Logged this one after relocating the not so friendly spider that called the cache home

Second quick and easy cache in very nice park. Thank you for nice cache.

Cache sharing hide with bunch of earwigs. TNLN TFTC.

Another great one for the geokids!

Nicely constructed cache here. Another quick find. All the dog owners stationary sittin in a circle in the middle of the park talks Ng to each other and distracted by their dogs running around frantically. Was able to duck in and out unnoticed for a discrete nab and sign. Thanks for the series Two Drews. To dark to continue on to the next park this evening, that will need to be another day.

In Moorabbin for an appointment and time in between another. Great camo. TFTC

A quick and easy find while I was in the area, nice hide, well done. Fortunately I timed my search well as there were few muggles about. Thanks for bringing me here and thanks for the cache.

Okay so we got TOTES SPRUNG doing this one! Fortunately by a neighbour to the park whom geodog took a shining to, who promptly said "You're in the right spot from what I remember".
He was so quiet! Came out of nowhere with a massive boat trailer thing - don't ask me how he did it!
Contemplated suggesting I had no idea what he was talking about, but went for laughs intead.
I had to do a bit of a regroup after he left but found it soon after :0) TFTC!

Great find. Found it easy enough and popped my name in the log. Thanks!

A few dogies about but discretely retrieved, nice work.. thanks..!!

Another one found. the sneaky girls are on fire today. Thanks.

Another sweet camo'd job, thank you. Had one incident with a geokid picking up a large stone that had a lot of critters underneath, so that was pretty gross. The actual cache was much better (and bug-free!). Left a Euro penny. Thank you again for a good visit (neat to see the St Kilda Saints' field nearby!), and can't wait until the first episode in the trilogy (A New Hope?) gets restored.

Sorry no photo; just realized that my shot gives away the stash over on the edge of the image. Dammit!

Attempted this one after #3 but there was quite a congregation of muggle mutt walkers gathered too close for comfort to gz, after a casual lap and unsuccessful hunt for #1 I returned once vacant and had the cache pocketed in no time. Hint was helpful for this one, though think small scale.

Suscoe's 12th find of the day.
The sun was starting to break through at last.
A quick find which was nice.
Thanks to the Two Drews for placing this one here.

Out to look for the 3 caches in this park and we were unhappy to miss the first one so really wanted to locate this one. Found the spot easy enough and looked and looked and looked to no avail. Finally read the clue and thought OK, narrow the search but could not find it. After missing the first cache we REALLY wanted to get this one so kept looking. Expanded the search area and still nothing. After almost giving up, Geomum and myself looked somewhere else and lo and behold, some distance from where it was MEANT to be, we found the item suggested in the hint and the cache somewhere it was not meant to be. The log is completely full so will require another one but we found a small area and scribbled into it. After a quick discussion and agreement we placed the cache back where we thought it should have been in the first place. TFTC. Now off to find number 3...

Easy find while avoiding pro dog walker. Tftf

Not tonight. Lots of muggle and dogs and getting dark. Coordinates spinning. Have to come back.

Found on a geocaching walk with geoson and a friend.
As a long time Saints supporter, this was rather special. The cache was found almost by accident.
Thanks for bringing me here. Two_Drews

Found by a new cacher in our group. A short walk from where we had Easter lunch. TFTC

I gave it my best shot, but darkness eventually fell and I had to abort the mission. Next time.

After turning in circles for what seemed like ages, I accidentally kicked an object on the path. Aha, found it! SL Another ingenious cache. This park is dog central on a Saturday afternoon! TFTC

Took a lot longer to find than it should have as the GPS was struggling with the tree cover.

Woo! 2nd tonight!

number 3 for the day had us here twice, i foolishly only searched where the gps was pointing. we went away and came back and i widened the search by about 13 meters and found it in good condition. photo attached as with all of my logs

There are dogs everywhere around here, barking barking barking, letting people know about our presence. A quick find here, as it was exposed, so put it back where you couldn't see the cache, just the camo. Thanks for the hide and bringing us here.

Happily came back to this park as it is nice and picked up two more. This one was visible from a distance as it was turned over!! TFTC and I will make sure I rehide it better!

Found by geoson after a dodging some dog muggles. Great camo!

There were a few dog walkers around this area, so I had to pretend to use my phone to take a picture. Once they wandered off, I quickly located the cache and had the log signed. Very creative, and well thought out cache. Thanks.

Read the hint after finding this which gave me a giggle. I saw an obvious spot and tried to draw the 7 year old's attention to it. Sometimes he's a gun finder and other times... well, he's a 7 year old. TFTC.

Visiting my personal TB

Came to this beautiful park to grab the three in the "Gone to the dogs" series. Loved the camo! Very sneaky. One side of the log is now full so started on the other. Off to find the others.
TFTC!

In the area tonight with a couple of hours to kill. Thought I'd do a little hunting around. Tftc

Found with ckdp, Bolaris and KittyCatCoco
Enjoyed finding this one @
Night loved the cache never seen before
SL

Pretty sneaky....great hide. Walking in the dark with Bolaris, Dajca1983 & CKDP

Found with Dajca1983, Bolaris and KittyCatCoco
Never seen this one before had fun finding this cache
TFTC SL

250km from home and up from the bush to go shopping. Off I went to Southland where I proceeded to get lost among the gazillion shops. After puzzling why amyone would need so many beauty shops, Manchester shops and food shops, I decided it was time to esxape and enjoy the sunshine.Thanks for helping me find this little bit of country whack bam in the middle of suburbia. I almost got muggled by a dog but got out in time to look like I was just chilling on the grass so it ran over and licked my face instead! A glorious day to be out and about- pity the fools in their concrete shopping centre

Lots of dogs running free around here, but we managed to sign log and return it without discovery. Thanks Two Drews

This series is well named, gone to the dogs as there were certainly many dogs of all shapes and sizes around today. Having successfully run the gauntlet of all these furry four legged types and avoided the eyes of the two legged types accompanying them the cache was soon signed and discretely returned to its well camouflaged hiding place TFTC Two Drews

What a nice park with very friendly dogs. Geo son really enjoyed this one and I'm glad he has little strong fingers! TFTC

Clever camo, easy find

Hardly had time to say "we're getting close" before geomum exclaimed "I've got it". Hints a little too good

Great little bit of DIY! TFTC. Now for the others in the series.

The hint made this a simple find. I like to see quality caches and this one fits the bill. The cache was just large enough to enable me to drop off a nice trackable as a sign of appreciation.
TFTC

Out caching with Quiet1_au. We walked to this one on our way round the edge of the ground. At first we had not luck. Neither of us liking the grass bushes. Eventually I saw something we looked slightly sus and there it was. Thanks Two Drews
GJMMelb

Negotiating some boggy terrain to GZ, G' of GJMMelb and I started our search, soon being joined by a friendly greyhound who took a little encouragement to join it's muggle owner again Continuing our search, we head another dog-walker approaching us when G' discovered the cache so we had to be careful making the grab to avoid too much attention. Oops, a little fumble - not me for a change! - but the cache was in hand for a quick log entry and we were off again to complete the trio of caches - TFTC Two Drews, we've enjoyed the variety of hides in this series

Find #308

Came by on a windy Friday arvo complete with Geobaby in the pram to tackle the three caches in this park. Having done others in the series I was looking forward to these. This was our second (as we were heading in reverse number order) and was in a bit more of a sheltered area but still good terrain for the pram. I found the coords a little out on this one but a quick look around and the cache was in hand. I really like the camo here and took the time to show the little one how it all fitted together. TNLNSL. Thanks for the cache and for the work that went into this one Two Drews.

Nice hide

Great camo in a park ive visited since a child. Tftc

Date: 16 June 2014
Time: 18:20
Find #3935
Streak: 320 days

Another after work cache hunt for me tonight to continue the streak. There was a muggle woofer that approached me, but no owner to be seen. Anyway, I continued to GZ where the cache was quickly located. Nice camo.

Thanks to Two_Drews for placing this cache.

Had a little bit of time free today to find a cache, so I came upon this great little park, and this great little cache, nice hide and cammo I just wished I had more time to look for the others but after finding this one I will defiantly back for the rest.

For some reason there was something so familiar about this hide, like I had dreamed it before. Last looked at the gps saying I was some 120 metres away. Next moment I was placing a well made camo back into its hidey spot. Thanks fir the walk and the cache, nice way to spend a spare moment =D

Yay!!

Had to wait a bit to grab this one as, like many others, I had issues with muggle traffic. Still, a relatively quick and easy find, though still quite clever. Cheers!

Our 200th cache - woo hoooooo!!! Took a bit of hunting, but we got it in the end. Nicely hidden and well camouflaged. TFTC

I love these caches. Team green

#214 @ 10:11 ~ Your hides are done well, I like them. Thanks for your effort & TFTC Two_Drews

#384 @ 10:17AM On holidays from Sunshine Coast Queensland. Another fantastic hide. Loving these caches. ~ TFTC Two_Drews

It was a lovely morning for a walk and cache and this was one of 5 I picked up whilst heading to Southland for work. Kicked the dew off the grass on the way here. Nice hide

I found this cache today at 2:00pm as number 8 of 26 on our Right Around Southland afternoon. Almost a year ago since we tried for this cache only to find it had been muggled. Today, a much easier time. Only trouble was, I somehow missed going to #3 afterwards so I will still need to come back. Thanks from D B-A.

Found today while out and about with the Geodog. We came here a bit later in the day and managed to avoid all the dogs and their walkers. Found the cache in the first spot I checked. Signed log. Thanks for the cache Two Drews.

Nice stroll to GZ, walked right past this one looking for a standard hide in a log prone area. Then had to reassess and investigate further. Clever hide. TFTC

Good camo job

After leaving the better half at "Water Widget" to continue the search, I made a relatively quick find here after the GPS stopped it's bouncing and a muggle and dog went by. Can't believe the high traffic of muggles with their dogs, definitly a well used and loved area. Another great camo hide. TFTC, Two Drews.

Walking on from #3 the pace was pretty quiet today and the cache was found very quickly. I was on a bit of a roll by now which was to last a bit longer.

Quick find on a pleasant walk around the park.

This was cache number 2 on the list. Again there was another keen dog walker passing by the area at this early hour. After she disappeared out of sight I headed for GZ. Spotted the similar disguise easily. A snail however was intent on guarding this cache. Signed it and put it back into its place with snail nearby. Again the cache was a work of art. TFTC

A lovely stroll around this park, I spotted this one straight away,

Thanks two drews [:x]

Good thing about this rain, no muggles!

Another great cache for #192, third of eleven on 11/11/13, a day to remember.
Took Nothing, Left Nothing. Signed Log. Visited a traveller.
Thanks For The Cache Two Drews

Muggles with dogs in the park had to contend with dog sniffing at my legs and barking at my son. Found the cache signed and put back

Good hide of a well camo cache.Took us a while to find.
TFTH. Signed log.

Another one our mega run for today. SL

Fun day out with Tony66. Had this one in hand quickly, Tony looked one side and I the other. Yay me! TFTC SL

I picked up my new offroad unicycle and stopped in this park to put it togther. So decided to take it out for a trial run. I fell off a lot of times but i did manage to find at least 1 of the caches in the park.

Cheers for the hides.

Another nicely camouflaged cache. This one took a little bit longer than the last one, but still found relatively quickly. Thanks for the cache.

Doing the caches in this park in reverse numbers today, headed to number 2 from number 3. Nice walk between the caches thinking I can see where I am going to as the GPSr distance counted down and it got to very low numbers right at a particular spot which had me groaning about a micro hidden in there but a quick hunt showed nothing. Looked around a few other spots before returning to where I started with an aha moment and the cache was in hand. Another nice camo job on this one, thanks to two drews for the cache.

Oh there it is !!!!TFTC

Walking through the park from the previous one this cache presented no issue in finding. However there is fresh evidence of dogs with irresponsible owners in close proximity to the cache. Beware the chocolate logs they are not part of the cache. TFTC

Walking across from the previous cache we soon came to GZ. As soon as I turned my torch on I could see the most likely spot for a hide. Bingo however BEWARE someone or something has left their mark very very close to the cache!
TFTC.

Moving on after not finding No. 1 this one put a smile on my face! Approached from the right direction so that I could clearly log it straight away. No one around so it was a quick grab and sign and placed back safely. The only thing wrong with this area was that people do not seem to like to clean up after their dog. So if you do take your GeoDog along with you keep an eye on them too while your searching! Now onto the next one, come on boy!!

Find #1080. Found @ 00:05.
I needed a cache to fill in the square on my rapidly dwindling p366 calendar list. Given the wild and woolly weather conditions which dominated the latter portion of the day, I decided to collect one of the close to home caches which I've been holding in reserve.
I tried, and failed, to find a nearby cache to the south, then decided to postpone the search for that one in order to make a required find.
This took me a few minutes to locate as the tree cover was affecting my GPSr. Once I loaded up the satellite imagery it was a simple task to obtain a cache-in-hand result.
Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables.
Thanks for the cache Two_Drews.

Find #300. We have achieved our school holiday goal on the last day of the holidays. Quick find. TFTC

Another great cache on this beautiful winters day.
