### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED PLEASE** ###

----------

Hi there AdventureNauts,

This cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as a cache that **MAY** need some attention.

You may recall having received an automated email from Geocaching HQ which explained what you needed to do.

Unfortunately, nothing seems to have happened, so the cache is being temporarily disable - see here: [**Geocache Health Score.**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713)

**You do need to respond to this enquiry in some way within 14 days, so others know you are on top of it, as well as indicating exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication scuttle this listing.**

#What should you do now:-#
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-

- **Check On The Cache:-** Visit the cache to check, repair, replace or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the logs of praise to roll in.

- **Place A Write Note Log:-** Reviewers are not mind readers (more's the pity), so without your note on the cache page explaining that the site works are on-going, you have been in hospital, the area is in flood, or some other reason that has prevented attending to the cache, they can't tell what is going on.
You need to post a note to the page (within 14 days) explaining the situation and when a Reviewer next looks at the listing, all will be fine for a little bit longer.
Be sure to indicate **the actual date that you expect to have it fixed** so that everyone knows you are on top of it. If you have a long term unavailable cache (where you don't have an actual date) please **post a Write Note log every 4 to 6 weeks,** so as to keep everyone up to speed.

- **Adopt/Archive:-** If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another Geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**Archive it,**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56) so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of the above. Well, when the cache is next checked by a Reviewer, if the issue has not been addressed, or there is no acknowledgment as requested above, it will be assumed the cache has been abandoned and processed accordingly.

Honestly, it's better for you to decide, so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

Thanks for your cooperation,

Bunjil

Looked around GZ for signs of the cache, but as mentioned by previous cachers, area is overgrown heavily by blackberry bushes
 
02-Nov-22
Returned today for another look. The blackberries are 10 times worse than when we were here 2 years ago. Definitely needs a machete here, or move to somewhere else.
 
02-Nov-22
Came back to try and turn a frown upside down . The blackberries are worse, there is no way that we can see to get into GZ to even start looking.. Possibly some maintenance needed here to 1. see if the cache is still here and 2. to check that it is accessible at all.
 
02-Nov-22
Inaccessible. Could do with CO having a look.
 
15-Sep-22
After a very exhaustive search of the area we did eventually see the cache….. however that wasn’t even half the battle. The area is well covered in blackberry bushes and it was really quite hard to find a path to the cache. We got there in the end, with a lot of scratches and many a swear words uttered. Might be worth moving this cache so it’s a little more accessible. Found with FairyDust01 Thanks for the cache
 
07-Jul-21
It seems the blackberries have defeated this GEOCACHE. Pity because the hints were fantastic and an altogether really interesting cache
 
30-May-21
Unfortunately blackberries have taken over this cache. Great reserve though, good to see lots of people out and about.
 
22-Mar-21
Worked out & walked toward the cache. Argh mozzies & thorns.
Lost my pen & no pen inside this cache. Photo send CO
Thanks

Out today for a nice cruisey day of caching before I compete at a nerdy card game tournament tonight. So what better to do then clear out some caches in the area.
With no real issues this multi was rather smooth until I saw the last hurdle needed at gz to obtain the cache. Thanks to me ling arms I was able to reach the cache unscathed by the now abundant thorny flora.
Either ways thanks for the cache and the walk in this lovely reserve.
 
09-Feb-21
Ditto to Meghanthejeweller in both the puzzle and GZ. I enjoyed working the numbers while sitting on the nearby seat.
I need multis to fulfill a challenge. Not realising that there could be a problem at GZ I walked off hoping for an easy find. If I hadn't spotted the cache from the blackberry barrier, I wouldn't have persisted. As it was a maade a path with some fallen branches and used a stick to retrieve the container. Many scratches later my name is in the log.
Spoiler photo coming.
 
02-Nov-20
After gathering all the info, we made our way to gz. However, despite a thorough search, no luck here today.
 
02-Oct-20
After reading 3 previous DNFs we weren’t sure if we should embark on this adventure. Overthinking the first puzzle, when we got the to GZ location we were way too determined to find it. Plants are very very overgrown and we got very scratched up. Took us a solid 30 mins. Bring protective clothing!!

-Spoiler photo-
 
20-Jun-20
Clues were ok, but the gz is a mess and the clue doesn't narrow it down much and the blackberries have taken over
 
14-Dec-19
I fear the blackberries have over run gz, looked at every gum tree with debris, which is almost everywhere!
 
15-Nov-19
Been searched for over 20 mins but there were massive overgrown prickles plants everywhere which wasn’t sure if it’s there. Will come back again someday.
 
15-Jul-19
Haven’t done too many puzzles as yet but really enjoyed doing this one today
Thanks for a lovely bit of fun on a miserable day
 
05-Jun-19
Nice easy one to start the day.
 
19-May-19
I had the afternoon to myself today and I leapt at the chance to grab as many caches in the Greater Dandenong area as I could. What a beautiful day to be out and about! I tried to not look too dodgy here as I read the board and deciphered the clues, and was thankful to depart the playground and leave behind muggle-central! It was a great walk down to GZ but at GZ I was trudging around for quite sometime trying to locate the cache. I read some logs and noted references to blackberries and this led me to the cache. Thanks for a great fun multi - great fun!
 
12-May-19
*12 May 2019, Found @9:52 pm, Find # 2840.*

Needing a a non trad cache for today I decided this would be a good one to pick up on the way home from my Mother’s Day dinner. I certainly hadn’t thought this one through and had come without a torch. Wearing a reasonably new pair of pants was also not a good idea. I had to go to war with some serious blackberry bushes. After quite some time of searching and with the family waiting impatiently in the car I resorted to a PAF. This helped narrow down the location, but it still took a few minutes to locate the cache.

**Thanks to K_Wolf; Adopted by the AdventureNauts for placing this cache.**






 
03-Mar-19
After collecting the info at the starting coords yesterday, came back this morning to make the find. Suffered only a few minor scratches. Cache in good condition.

Such a beautiful place.
No wonder it attracts so many birds.
And muggles!
Muggles, muggles everywhere!

It's my first visit here, and it's interesting to survey the capital works going on at the moment. Large sections of the wetlands are currently vast mud flats. But it's still easy to see how special this area is to both the locals and the ecology.
The coordinates were extracted smoothly and GZ was reached in a most unexpected gap in the stream of muggle traffic.
I was sure the cache couldn't be...
Oh nooo, it is!
And I signed in with less blood loss than expected, lol.
The seasonal defences are in full effect!

Thanks so much to K_Wolf and The AdventureNauts for creating and maintaining this fun episode of suburban hijinx.
The cache is in perfect condition.
 
24-Aug-18
In need of a multi to keep the streak going I went for this one. Fairly quick calculation had me walking for a few minutes.
After arriving near GZ I did circle around a bit given that I wanted to find the driest way into the vegetation. Once I found the stepping off point from the path I the did some circle work to find the easiest point of entry.
After entering it was a fairly quick path to the true GZ even despite the presence of blackberries.
Cache found shortly thereafter, log signed and all replaced.
 
15-Aug-18
Having worked out the information for GZ a couple of weeks ago, I went back on a cold, windy day with no one in sight. Perfect. I made the dog sit just outside the area because of all the prickles and kept on eye on him while I searched. Next thing I noticed he was playing with another dog, and as I came suspiciously out of the bushes, I met his owner. I know he must of thought I was having a pee (and I looked guilty) did a lap of the lake and tried again. With no one bothering us, made the find and signed the log. Thanks AdventureNauts.
 
14-Jul-18
I can safely say that I have never been to this area before. As I walked around the water here, a Black Swan flew quite close over head and I upset a lot of ducks that seemed to be feeding next to the trail. There was a slight false start at the listed coordinates (what plaque) until I realised my silly mistake (ah, that plaque!). Didn't take too long to wander towards GZ and then I was worried about the damage I might do to my legs (not sure why I wore shorts). Quick search and I had the cache in hand. Escaped with one minor scratch and some brambles embedded in my shoe! TFTC
 
11-Jul-18
I certainly took the hard way to this cache, through a wall of blackberries. Of course, there is, another much easier way Smile I left a trackable to entice another visitor. TFTC AdventureNauts
 
26-Apr-18
A cool but pleasant evening so off I went. Had to read carefully to get the clies. GZ amd blackberries... were... a real
.. prick.. sigh.. cache in good condition. Thanks to K_Wolf; Adopted by the AdventureNauts for placing this cache.
 
13-Feb-18
My first GZ calculation had me approaching private property about 1 km away. I then backtracked, found my way to what I thought was GZ and searched for a loooong in waist-high grass. No cache. Back to WP1, recounted, same result. Oh, look - a transcribing error Smile. That was a frustrating and time-consuming mistake [B)].
Second time round with the co-ords correctly plugged in it was an easier approach to the much more pleasant GZ area, although getting to the container did require pushing through 3m of blackberry thorns.
Thanks, AdventureNauts.
 
06-Jan-18
idk! couldn’t do it. i’m dumb.
 
24-Aug-17
First multi that I've completed, was a good adventure after miscalculating co-ords to begin with was back on the right track after another quick re-calculation. Bit soggy under foot but found quickly enough when hit GZ TFTC
 
05-Aug-17
Looking for multi's for our pirate finding of 10 coins l was hoping for one that l could do. Although fairly constant we were able to snap a picture and work it out in the car. My gosh...... it was damn cold but ťhe detour to anaconda came in handy sporting our snow scarfs. We were able to work it out and l wondered if we could drive closer which we were able to do. A little to keen we headed across only to find it quite boggy and wet under foot but the area was well covered and no blackberries as previously mentioned. A very enjoyable. K Wolf really did some nice ones so thanks for taking this one on & maintaining.
 
04-Aug-17
Found this one this afternoon with omegaman1971 after knocking out the final gz after some quick calculations. We made our way to the gz and soon came up with the good sized cache. Thanks AdventureNauts for the nice little multi and hide.

Out and about today with Happy pants after getting out of work early.
Found this well hidden cache under the view of some local crows.
Cheers for the cache
 
02-Aug-17
In the area with frmen1. Needed a multi for Mary Hyde too (see previous log). The sun is trying to break through the fog and heaps of muggles were encouraging it too. Quirky sculpture. A quick calculation headed me back the way I came. Dived quickly to gz between muggles. Log bag has a couple of tears but all is ok. TFTC, the lovely walk and helping my team with souvenirs.
 
02-Aug-17
Worked out and found with tassie expat. Tftc
 
01-Aug-17
Arriving in Melbourne about half an hour earlier than needed, I decided to have a look for a multi cache for the Mary Hyde challenge. This was the nearest one to my destination and I found my way straight to the required information. No problems there and the gardener chap with the leaf blower must have thought the information on there was more fascinating than he'd anticipated. Then I struck a problem - all of the lovely nearby seating was still dewy and the tables were worse. So, I perched awkwardly on the edge and performed the calculations.
On the nice walk to gz, I pondered the name of this park - there's another Frog Hollow in Camberwell area rather famous in my family for a visit a long time ago with my Pop who, upon seeing a kid absolutely fail play equipment; falling off everything he touched in spectacular fashion, declared in his typical country-boy way, that the kid was a born loser. Ouch! Burn!
In the end, I made my way across wet grass (in inappropriate shoes designed for work, not play) and then dodged long grass before making an easy find. TFTC AdventureNauts!
 
22-Apr-17
Here for a different geolocation event. Walked round the lake then got the clues at lunch while kids on playground. Walked back to grab the well hidden cache. Nice spot and lots of frogs around today. Thanks.
 
15-Mar-17
Found it! This being my first multi..This has been on my list for a while, so after figuring out the coordinates I went and looked...probably one of the most challenging ones I have done (I still newish) Tip: don't come looking for the cache wearing shorts!
 
01-Feb-17
Out with Yorsys, collecting a few caches in our local area.
We stopped off here to grab a seat and do this multi. There were plenty of muggles about but none that worried us. After working out GZ we headed off there to claim the prize. However long grass and blackberries doesn't bode well for an easy search. Way to snakey for me and we left our sticks in the car. So grabbing some debris from the ground we carefully made our way over to GZ and found the cache.
TFTC AdventureNauts
 
01-Feb-17
Out with the Swaggies to clear out some old caches. Find 1429 at 1 February 2017 4:17 PM
 
25-Jan-17
Checked on this one and all is there, intact and log dry and ready for the next finder. Beware, blackberry prickles have grown around ground zero but the cache is still accessible.

Had to go shopping for some basketball shoes for my first basketball game and had to find a cache before we went home. That day was a great day because we won our first game Smile
 
05-Nov-16
We were out shopping for basketball shoes for geodaughter and decided we couldn't go home without finding a cache. We had a nice walk and the rain held off, saw some cool birds, but didn't hear any frogs and filled in another date on our 366 day calender. Geodaughter's team even won their first basketball game later in the day, so all around a great day. TFTC Smile
 
24-Oct-16
Found the cache after a brief search that was made more difficult by the area being waterlogged.
Log book signed and TB collected.
 
18-Aug-16
Nice day and a few muggles around the talking frogs. Collected the required information and calculated GZ. Located the cache after a short search. Fortunately this area seemed to be well shielded from the walking path. SL and left a TB. TFTC
 
17-Aug-16
Love the park, would be sensational on a weekend with sports and bbq's etc.
Rather quiet today, although the sun was shining, which made for a quick calculation and a quick find. Many thanx to casey.cachers
 
15-Aug-16
I hurriedly completed *Talking Fish* back in June in a spare moment before a scheduled meeting with another cacher and have ever since have felt I should deal with this one if only to complete the set! This area is surprisingly busy around dawn on a brisk, dewy, wintery day, so I was pleased not to have been compelled to loiter long at the starting coordinates. I did however need to launch the GCC toolbox app before moving on; my brain was in no mood for actual thinking. After a short-ish stroll the cache was also uncovered without much fuss. Thanks K_Wolf and casey.cachers!
 
14-Aug-16
Great multi in great location. TFTC A bit wet underfoot after recent rain to get to it. Cache in good condition.
 
14-Aug-16
Calculating, checking and checking again.
We have learnt the hard way that this is what is required.
Cache was then easily located.
Thanks casey.cashers.
Chiefton!!!
 
25-Jul-16
What a beautiful place! I've lived not ten minutes from here for ten years and for some reason have never been here! I'll be bringing my kids here for sure! There's even gym equipment and a great playground and the little lake is lovely!

Worked out the co-ords whilst trying not to get blown away, then made my way to GZ. T'was a bit slushy underfoot today. Found it, signed it and left a keyring. Thanks for bringing me here!

During the dreary, cold and often wet days of winter, my geocaching adventures by in large go into hibernation but over the past few days, the itch to cache has become intolerable. Despite overnight rain that continued until mid morning, this afternoon cleared to a sunny day - perfect to hunt down some cachers. Decided to do some listening to frogs and fish.

I parked near GZ & walked over to the talking frogs. There were a few muggles with children and dogs walking around the playground but not enough to hinder my calculations. I ended up using my fingers to count & felt like I was back in maths class at primary school. Thankfully managed to calculate coordinates that looked good and after plugging them into my GPSr, went for a walk around the lake. The area was beautiful in the late afternoon sun, with avian wildlife seemingly enjoying the sun as much as the muggles.

I approached my calculated GZ, left the path to ponder my entry point whilst watching my steps on the grass. The ground was very boggy in places and I had to watch my step as my shoes were not waterproof and did not want wet feet. In short order, found GZ that matched the hint and soon spotted the cache. Some camo had slipped off exposing the container. SL, left the swag and replaced as found. Everything is in good order. Replaced by putting more natural camo over the cache.

Returned to the path and headed to the other nearby multi - Talking Fish to hear what they have to say... TFTC Casey.cachers.

Too complicated
 
08-May-16
Visiting family from Tas. Our first multi. Heaps of fun. Keep eye out for dog walking muggles.
 
01-Apr-16
Nice and easy find, but so many muggles!
TFTC!
 
29-Mar-16
After spending time writing my alphabet, rather than using my fingers, we had to wait for dawdling muggles to finally go by, so that I could dart in and grab the loot. The kidlets were kept busy with a soccer ball that we found and I grabbed a TB to continue its journey. TFTC
 
21-Feb-16
We found it very quickly. Took the bracelet, left the croc.
 
27-Jan-16
Looked for a hour with 2 other caches to no avail
 
06-Jan-16
The park was full of muggles but no-one payed any attention to me as I took a photo at WP1.
Sat down to work out the final and the headed off for a brisk walk.
Took the long way around the lake to allow some joggers time to clear the area.
A quick find here. All good.
Dropped [url=http://coord.info/TB6YB3B]"Cartoon - Eric Cartman"[/url] TB.
Thanks for the cache K_Wolf and thanks also to casey.cachers for adopting it.

It is three months since this cache was found. It is still there, but could do with another log, there is not much room left. Thanks for bringing us to this park, another place we haven't been to.
 
26-Aug-15
Easy to work out with Multi.
Found it. All good
Thanks casey.cachers
 
29-Jul-15
Catching up on some late, very late and extremely late logs (400 in all)

I would like to thank casey.cachers for placing this cache. I always enjoy getting out and about to view this great country of ours and caching allows me to do that. Once at GZ, I sometimes find the cache quickly but sometimes it takes awhile to sus out the well camouflaged hide. Once found, log is signed and the cache is rehidden as found.

Once again thanks casey.cachers.

On a bike hunt today while the sun is sort of here tftc.

29-Jul-15
We were out with micaparamedic to grab a few multi's for the Monthly Multi challenge challenge.
We had a chat to the residents and listened to what they had to say and were soon on our way to GZ.
Once there we were lucky and located the cache in the first place we looked and our names are now in the log.
Many thanks K_Wolf for setting it up and Casey Cachers for keeping it going.

Nice little spot, but bee careful. Seriously there is a natural bee hive near the location of the cache Smile

Great park, and a great little multi.
Dipped l dropped off a trackable.
 
30-May-15
I found this one after this morning's Parkrun. Cache in good condition, although be careful of the stingy insects (bees?) nesting nearby.
 
09-May-15
It was all quiet and the frogs were busily talking, which meant I had the answers I needed!
On to GZ and a quick find. With the log signed it was back to enjoy a little more of a walk in the lovely autumn sunshine.

Thanks to K Wolf for placing this cache and providing a great way to tour the reserve.
 
06-May-15
This was the first on a run on my bike along the bi-pass trail. I got the sheet for the wrong talking creatures out of my bag and couldn't make head nor tail of it. The penny eventually dropped. Thanks K Wolf.
 
11-Apr-15
Another very nice park to wander around. Lots of muggles around the talking frogs but not to hard to get information needed to find gz. Started searching area for final hide and stumbled across a wasp nest. Cache is very close so use some caution. tftc
 
10-Apr-15
Dont look too hard
 
29-Mar-15
First cache today, in the company of GJMMelb and quiet1_au on bikes. What a great day today! Lots of people here, enjoying the sunshine. We arrived at GZ after a quick ride. Wasps were navigated, and the log signed. TFTC, and for guiding us back to this park where we completed a night cache in the past.
 
29-Mar-15
Met up with caching partners Quiet1_au and Lochb for a cycle alone the Hallam Bike trail. The park was busy being a fine day, but we got the information quickly and set off on our bikes. In no time we reached Gz. Q spotted the cache but I had to take a long way round to avoid the wasp nest. I managed to get to the ache ok, log the cache a replace without disturbing them too much. ThanksK_wolf

29-Mar-15
A wonderful sunny Sunday so regular caching partners lochb, G' of GJMMelb and I met up to get some caching done by bike along the Hallam Bypass trail. This is a familiar park for us (although it looks a bit different by daylight!) so once we all arrived, donned helmets and mounted our two-wheeled steeds, we rode to WP1 - taking all of about 10 seconds... Razz Information gathered, and conversions and calculations sorted out we headed off to GZ, a few muggles to dodge along the way. lochb and G' were quickly off their bikes - I a further little behind wondering whether to mind the bikes or help with the search. I soon joined the others and as G' led the way and lochb checked previous logs and the hint I spied the cache and guided G' to it - he braving the wasp nest, but thankfully without incident. (These pest wasps really seem to be a problem this summer, I've stumbled on a few nests, more than I've seen in the years before... Insectide dust might soon need to be part of the standard cacher's kit...) TFTC Smile
 
01-Mar-15
Tftc K_Wolf. Found this cache a while ago but didn't log it online. Enjoyed the find, a couple of muggles were around though.
 
23-Feb-15
Found the starting co-ords easily and although a busy playground, I set about my business of gaining the information before heading off to my calculated GZ. On arrival it looked like an obvious spot, but nearby (less than a meter) some bees had made a hive in a burrow in the ground. I could spot the cache, the tricky part was getting to it. A mad dash (and I do mean mad) and I had the cache in hand. I took it a distance away to sign the log.

Now for the replacement.

I grabbed some nearby bark, another mad dash to GZ I dropped my prize and threw soe bark over it, concealing it as best I could before making a hasty retreat, thankfully unstung.

Thanks k kolf for another great multi!

After doing the rest of Pinkpiggy7 Hallam trail I was one Geocache short of 20 - this was the closest unfound cache to my car - msenchantres and her hubby came along - she acted as the scribe which was helpful. This was an easy find I expected harder from this CO! Thanks again Mr Wf Smile TBV SL TNLN TFTC

Tagging along with TeamThommo on a mission of 20 in a day, this was the last one to complete the challenge... The kids had done an amazing job riding their bikes on what would be roughly 7-8kms along the trail... Then a few detours..}

At GZ we were quickly able to makeout the co-ords for GZ, upon approach TeamThommo made a suoer quick find Smile:)

Thanks KWolf for bringing us here, Ill be back soon to do another multi nearby Smile
 
10-Jan-15
It would be good if the council or Melbourne Water or whoever manages this reserve got on top of the blackberry. Not actually get on top of it of course... you know what I mean. Perhaps I need to start bringing the golok with me on urban caches. That shouldn't get me into any trouble I'm sure.
Worked out the coordinates while the kids played and then it was a pleasant walk past the lakes and all the fisher people. One person fishing thought our behaviour rummaging around in the bushes was a little odd but, with discretion, cache was soon in hand. Nice multi and park. Unfortunately not enough time today to also complete Talking Fish.
 
27-Dec-14
Nice woodwork sculpture about the three different frogs that live here. At the GZ I got grabbed by some very prickly plant. I was by myself and struggling to get it off my back. Cache well hidden under bark. Luckily I saw a stray super ball so I knew to keep looking. TFTC

after sitting at home all day making up caches........ trying to get family to go caching.......no one could be bothered moving too far.....but at 9pm geo dad said that there was still a night cache near us that we could do.........of course geo kids jumped at it, rather than going to bed. So at 915pm we head off for the night one and this one....it will only take a little while as we didn't think the park was very big!!! The four of us had a torch each...... geodad turned his on and......oh no!!!.... it didnt work! Later in the night another torch ran out of charge! Found this one after finding the night cache multi near here. GeoShaz sat in the car with sore feet(wore boots so feet would not get wet) and Geoson didnt come into the bush as he had the torch with dead battery, but GeoDad and GeoDaughter found this one easily.

Out and about with Echidna44 today. Having just completed some of the Hallam bypass we thought we would check out this park for lunch. Lots of reno's going on here. The local rates are at work with the council workers hard at digging up the existing grassed area. We had lunch and then checked out the strange looking frog sculpture. Picked up the clues and proceeded to work things out. Following the path for a long as we could and finally had to go into no mans land. Very very wet.
Nice easy find though.
Thanks for the cache K Wolf, the play area will look great when its finished I am sure. Its good to see your rates at work.

Xambo4u and I had lunch while we worked out the co-ords for this one. We enjoyed the mental challenge and liked the way the multi was set up. Thanks K Wolf

First time looking and could not find. Think we need to read a bit more about how this all works. Had fun looking though

This was our first time at geocaching. Not good results. Think we need to read a bit more about how to do this. Will keep trying

Arrived at the first waypoint with a couple of kids playing on the play equipment took a quick photo and left to the near by seat to work out the rest.
Thanks K_Wolf for the multi,

Find # 3335
Streak: 98 days

I was on my final day off of my holidays and despite the hot forecast for the day, I decided to head out towards the Dandenong and towards Berwick area and find as many caches as I could before the evening event :Ground Control to Major Tom"

This was my first cache of the day, a nice little multi, I gathered the required info quite quickly, put together the numbers before taking the short walk to GZ for a nice quick find thanks to a muggle free park at that point.

Thanks to K_Wolf for the cache. TNLN

WP1 was vacant although it may not have mattered too much. GZ was far enough away to double check everything but all looked good. Once at GZ the cache was found easily enough, thanks K_Wolf.

After forgetting how to count we re-calculated the co-ordinates and found the cache without too much trouble. All the grass in the area was soggy but the container itself was in fine condition.

Thanks for the nice little puzzle at the start!

Log and items in very good condition and a good muggle-free location. TFTC!

Fun playground at WP1 and lovely wetlands for a walk and listening out for frogs. Swapped glass stone for one silver animal charm. TFTC
