I visited this location today. The cache is definitely not where it was previously.
I second Cathlud. I swung past 3 days ago and could not find it. Happy to adopt it if CO no longer wishes to reinstate it.

Morning
I just ran a pocket query on the attributes
* Night cache
* available 27-7
Obviously this doesn't make sense and given this is a traditional cache, it can't be a nightcache
Thanks and cheers

Spent a short time searching but had no luck. Will try again when back in the area. Thanks anyway.
#3 on our Leap Day quick dash after school. This one with the intriguing title had been on the radar for some time, and now I get it. TFTC.
Last cache for me in this area today. Still with no gps I had to rely on hints from mys sister in order to locate this one. Once I knew I had the spot, I had to wait for an elderly muggle to cross the road and be out of sight before retrieving. TFTC
After a morning caching with the family around Donvale I dropped them off to put their feet up whilst I grabbed a few more caches. I decided that I would hunt around the Montmorency area.
A muggle free area allowed for a quick find. TFTC.

Have been meaning to do this one for ages as it is so close to home.
Finally today was the day as we did one close by.
Geodad helped a bit as he had done it some time ago.
Very clever hide and the hint and name are also very clever and once you get it ,it all makes sense.
TFTC and great effort

Finally had some time whilst kids were at Taekwondo to nick out and get this one.
Have been meaning to get to it for ages but muggled had always spoiled the opportunity.
Thankfully, knowing exactly what had to be done I was able to quickly grab this, sign the log and replace it. All is well that ends well.

TFTC ALERT261419. Found easy enough but was an effort to get to the cache. Great cool day for caching, with the bat hitting the willow on the oval nearby. Jimmytherat with Noelle04.
Found with s very height challenged Jimmytherat. Thanks Elert. Thought we would need to be very sneaky due to cricket math but not interested in us at all. Nice!
Passing this way and with a bit of rain we figured the muggle factor would be low so made our way over. We parked close and made our way to GZ and then a tell tale sign gave us the location. A check on how exposed and who was watching and we soon had the cache in hand to complete the signing duties before re hiding in reverse. TFTC.
After unsuccessfully visiting GZ a few months ago and then reading some logs I convinced one of my sons to come with me tonight and do the retrieval of this cache. A very interesting placement for a cache.

Found it... Good hide... Tftc... Sunday afternoon walk with the family and decided to find caches in local area... Nice way to spend the afternoon. Thanks.
Muggles muggles everywhere... Not today, but it is fair to say the Coords are spot on...
I was out with tinkertraveller and both found it. TinkerTraveller was too short to reach it, so our friend Jeckleberry and Tedd (who had found this one previously) kindly collected it for us.
THANKYOU!!!

Out today with Jecklberryandtedd and catcat10, about to place our very first cache nearby. I have walked and cycled past this cache many times before, but have never had a pen with me to sign the log. Today I had time to retrieve the cache, however, I am somewhat height-challenged so my friend Jeckleberryandtedd put her brave face on and stretched to retrieve it. TFTC
No problems with this one. Again i knew what I had to do and luckily I had the necessary tool in the car to make life easier.
The log was a little damp but OK.

Oops! Found this the other day with michiamotash and forgot to log it!
I'd been here weeks before and saw it but was unable to retrieve coz footy muggles were everywhere so I settled for a snag in bread, with sauce,and decided to return another day...which I did!

brilliant cache, great disguising but you have to pay attention to muggles around. TFTC
Sneaky little cache but we found it. Luck we had good shoes. Found with OzHockey Chick and Andy88. TFTC

Tonight hergab69 joined 88andy88 and I for our Friday night shenanigans. Nice little hide this was. Cheers!

Upon arriving at this cache the her of hergab69 and I were absolutely fascinated with the flashing cats eyes on the path that were obviously warning cyclists of the road they were about to cross mid path.....so by the time we had studied these marvelous inventions OzHockeyChick and the gab of hergab69 had found the zone and requested our help to complete the find and log....We obliged and helped out as we do and signed the awesome hidden cache....Well do and thanks for bringing us here...

Nice and quiet here this afternoon despite roadworks just down the road. Not too hard, but satisfying. Thanks.
A quick caching stop after school with Geokids. Loved the hide. We had a touch of the giggles trying to rehide it as there were far too much traffic. Took about ten minutes to return it to its place with Geokid#1 standing on the side of the road waiting to give the all clear. Highly likely that someone we know drove past, so it will be fun coming up with different reasons for what we were doing.
A bit of caching was in order today after one of those weeks that was full of tasks.
the afternoon was spent doing leisurely walks along with a few quick pickups.
Many thanks to ELERT261419 for the effort and placement of this cache. TNLN SL

After a busy week at work and home rennos going on we took some time out for caching. We set off with no firm plan just a general direction predicated on a late afternoon requirement. The weather was good and the cache found. TNLN TFTC SL
saw how to get it out but a muggle drove up right behindme to do maintenance on his sign,boo :\ nearby a corella got caught in the basketball hoop net, and we had limited time to catch our flight back to Canberra so i spent the time rescuing him instead. very ungrateful little thrasher!!! managed to cut his neck out of the rope and he flew off screaming, his mates flying off to meet him and give him a check up. guess he has something to brag about now. tftc, more so the experience.
Found on a brief geocaching outing.
Easy find but hard to retrieve unnoticed.
Thanks ELERT261419

Saw the sign.... but did not see cach unless i got it wrong it may have been muggled.
Quick find on a drive by. Coords took me straight to GZ and the couple of out of place tell tales did the rest. TFTC.
out on my own tonight taking in some fresh air after a lovely warm spring day. After completing a Baluke trail nearby this and this was on my way home. Nice easy find but glad it was a very quite time of the day.
Thanks for the cache ELERT261419

Took a while for the hint to sink in, and after a few false starts I spotted what was indeed the vital clue. Thanks for a little extra challenge here Elert261419, and for the cache
Walking up to this I was looking for something that was not there. I think I read to much into the name. But after a brief search of the area, We spotted something and then had that light bulb moment. Quickly retrieved and signed log so as to get out of the rain. TFTC
This is a clever hide, but with the description I was able to work out what was required and saw something which was a telltale sign.
There were no issues retrieving the container, and with my name added to the log all was popped back safely.
Thanks to ELERT261419 for the cache.

Found 3:30:00 PM, on a lazy Saturday afternoon cache run.
TNLN, thanks ELERT261419.

Even though football training was taking place I thought I'd give this a go. I really don't think either the footballers or passing cars for that matter noticed or cared. This sure was easier for me to retrieve than other ELERT caches (some I know where they are but can't get to, others I can see but can't get to!) Log signed I was back on my walk along the Plenty in no time.
Thanks again ELERT.
Thanks again ELERT.
Found this one as part of a 21 cache streak where all the caches were at least 1km apart. I saw this one easily but getting the cache took a bit of work and I am not sure if I was sighted climbing! I signed the log but didn't swap anything today.
Thanks for the cache ELERT261419

Got the slippery little beggar, AND signed it. Thanks for nice walk in the park, twice.
Quick find tonight after work, have a few hours to kill on the way home so will blitz the area as best I can. Tftc
We found this cache at 6:40pm as number 13 of 14 on our Darebin to Greensborough Caching Jaunt. Looked in all directions them spotted the cache tell. Thanks from D, HA and A B-A.
Nobody was around, so I was able to make a quick find. The clue was very useful, for it saved looking at possible hiding places nearby. Thanks for the cache; it's a nice little hide.
On the way out for Christmas Pizza & Red Wine at a mates and grabbed this on the way past.
Nice hide, quick find once all the sporting events have finished.

I have tried this one before on a busy footy day.

it will need maintenance , it is very visible,
I am sorry about that,
thanks ELERT261419 [:x]

Great hide. The clue about 'wear sturdy footwear' and things that 'looked out of place' with the hint all led us to the right spot. TFTC
