If it is where I think it is, there would be no way that I would go down there, especially in snake season and the fact that it’s hot out. DNF

Find #4948. Found @ 13:23 with Annoying Tarbit

After many virtual puzzle solving evenings over lockdown Annoying Tarbit and I have solved lots of puzzles in various places around the state. With the travel restriction boundary still being 15kms from home, and with both of us being fully vaxed, we decided to meet up for some exercise... and ignore all the caches that we'd solved and hit some others that were in our overlap area.

With our attempt to get into the nearby park area being thwarted by everyone else having the same thought, we parked near here and decided to walk under the bridge. Before doing that, I wanted to make the find here. A bit of a search in the expected location revealed nothing, so I expanded my search radius, and spotted something out of place.

When I say out of place, I mean in the wrong place. The container was not where it was supposed to be, but I retrieved it and put it where I expected it to be (after signing it). The CO might want to check that I put it back right.

There were lots of mozzies out and about here, and both Annoying Tarbit and I were feasted upon. We continued on to the park, and found that we couldn't go under the bridge as the Yarra was flooded... this was to prove to be a common theme to our adventures in the park.

Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables.
Thanks for the cache daunts
 
Great hide. Really enjoyed navigating to and searching for this one

Beware of trolls...

OK, this is a bit tragic, but I now have a bunch of draft logs that are up to two months old. My plans of writing entertaining and informative tales for each one, illustrated with terrific photos, have become a bit ambitious. I will embellish where I can, and come back to some later, but will have to make do with generic logs for now.

Of course, this is not to disregard the appreciation I have for those who have placed and maintain each of these caches. I love youse all.

This one was all a bit easier than I suspected it would be (after a bit of hassle getting into the right spot) as it was sitting out in the open. Replaced where I figured it would be (still easy enough and consistent with the rating). No giant spiders encountered! TFTC Smile

Thoroughly enjoyed this hunt....found an access point quite close by...and in the pouring rain...scrambled down, up and over slippery fallen branches...and had an argument with the eight legged cache guardian ...which I won.
Us geocachers should get danger money ️️
Thrilled to also find a TB

A tricky find in the wet this afternoon. Rather slippery around here.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks for these geocaches out this way today, we always appreciate the hider of a geocacher as withlout someone to hide there would not be anything to find.
*Overall Experience: 3*

I had attempted this one a few days ago, but had had zero success and couldn't find a way in. After visiting the turtle and the garden centre we returned back to the under-bridge crossing and I found the way in! But a grumpy geoson meant I decided to return another day. Today in fact. With reinforcements this time we spent some time admiring the turtle while I mentioned to Arachnauts the presence of a cache. She was quick off the money and while I was fumbling about trying to find my phone she was in the entrance and onto the cache. As I looked up she nonchalantly held up the cache. Turns out she thought I'd already found it - We signed the log and then it was into the garden centre (again) to satisfy the curiosity of geodaughter. TFTC
 
14-Mar-21
Quick find at a cool spot, the turtle was particularly appreciated by the crowd. Left a TB & TeamUs! left a path tag. TFTC!0

17-Feb-21
Finally had the chance to seek this one. I'm house/dog sitting in Ivanhoe for my son. The lockdown has limited me a little.
Took note of the clue but forget why.
Quite a scramble to get to the cache. it would take longer than the time between 2 buses stopping!
Interesting nursery here too.
Thanks for the hunt.

80th Cache!! The garden center is great. Lots of native plants to make your garden beautiful, and a lot of expensive art to make your garden ugly again. LOL.

14-Jun-20
Travelling home from dinner for a friends 40th and stopped in for this one. Managed to get this under the cover of darkness which was handy. The terrain could possibly be bumped up given the current state. Got a little wet but managed to avoid the webs! Signed the log and carried on home.
Thanks for the hide.
 
14-Jun-20

29-Jan-20
Thanks!
 
24-Jan-20
TFTC! I am sad that this nursery is going to be demolished in the up coming roadworks. At first I was looking around the giant turtle but after looking at the GPS again I soon found it very easily, nicely placed under the bridge where muggles could not see me signing it.
The cache is in good condition, I suggest posting a owner maintenance log to remove the requires maintenance icon.
 
24-Jan-20
All up to date and in good condition.

We found it on the 13.4.19 under the wooden bridge thanks for putting it out there great first find
 
04-Apr-19
Stopped off after visiting the nearby Heide MOMA .....Can I say I found it if I never actually touched it but saw it?? It’s hidden so far back that I couldn’t reach it, and I tried going round through the trees but wussed out when I was getting spiked, caught up and cobwebbed.
 
03-Apr-19
After a quick look around the area I checked out previous logs and got adventurous myself. The cache was soon in hand and the log signed. TFTC.
 
16-Mar-19
The gps and I were a bit confused at first and targeted the obvious large object. Nothing found. I widened the search and was more adventurous in my searching and spied the cache in its hiding spot.
