This was a hard one as my gps can giving conflicting directions. After 20 mins searching read the description which helped me a lot. When back in and there it was when I looked up
So many branches to look out for when scrambling up the long way. Eventually found it after nearly stepping on all the lizards.
Interesting scramble up to GZ. Hot day, with a few surprised muggles when coming back to the trail. TFTC!

Happy to be climbing here today and not yesterday (35dec ) I dont like those lizards with no legs.
Now back to the track.

Found the way up and quiet1_au and I split up and searched around. I did not read the cache page and wasted some time looking in the wrong places. Q however soon found the cache as per the instructions. Thanks jackimarble

It was nice to get off the weed-ridden rail trail for a while and into this bushland and after I was being distracted by some wildflowers got on with the main task of caching and headed up to GZ. After a short search I caught sight of the cache nearby.
Hiked up and down the hill ten times trying to see the blummin' thing and not a sign. Would have kept going but alas, the sun set on me, so I had to continue on my merry way.
Another time, cache. Another time.

Just about to give up, had looked all around the most likely ( in some ways only) contender to no avail. Walked away, looked back and there it was larger than life in full sight!

You know how you get days when you've been inside for so long that you get sick of yourself? Well, I was at that stage, so I planned a little geocaching walk around Lilydale and Mount Evelyn. I thought I'd pick up all the Guilty Gunks caches, but as I drove north along Swansea Road I couldn't find anywhere to park, and drove straight past the one designated carpark! Suddenly, I was at Lillydale Lake [:/]
So I headed straight up to the entrance to the Warburton Rail Trail, parked, and walked along there. I picked up all the caches heading south to Birmingham Road, then walked all the way back to the car! I did plan to catch a bus, but *just missed* four along the way! Still, the exercise was good for me
I got back to the car after about three hours, then headed home for a nice hot shower before going out for dinner.
Thanks for the cache, Jacimarble! I loved the view from here...

After a dfn last time I was here, brought some friends along who spotted it straight away. I was right on top of it, and she was about 4 meters away, yelling and pointing! TFTC!!
TFTC, A nice detour from the main track to get this one, final one for today as have to head back to a meeting.
I liked this cache as it is far enough away from the track so as not to need worry about muggles. I started up too soon and had to traverse more of the rough ground than necessary. Found the cache (the hint is in the description) and signed the log. Actually this log was full too, but I was able to leave a page from my notebook as a temporary log.
And I was looking too low. Thanks Jacimarble. I'm certainly getting a good workout.
Little bit more challenging physically then the other ones along the track. Great little hide tho. TFTC!
Log book is totally full and needs replacing. I found a corner to sign but it is too small to be readable.
Thanks for the cache.
Thanks for the cache.
Next stop on the rail trail, the detour wasn't too bad and the cache was soon in hand. Thanks for the cache.
Jcody was on the prowl for some open gardens. I skipped out for a couple of nearby caches.
Made the climb for an easy find.

A nice, steep walk up! We searched, and searched, looked up photos, aligned them, but somehow seemed to be blind today. We were close to giving up when PrincessDiala yelled out "there it is!". It was right in front of our eyes, you just had to look from a slighlty different angle. And yes, the photos had been taken right from GZ! TFTC, and for the challenge!
today its my birthday and what a special excuse to have a day off work and cache,
I parked as far as I could on David st and walked up the hill,
thanks jacimarble [:x]

This one was pretty good! It hides itself from the eye if you aren't looking for it

#1740 - Found on a bike ride from Warby to Ringy North. All part of the fun and challenges on our AroundOz bicycle challenge. Thanks to Jacimarble for time and effort in placing and managing this cache.
We used the great weather to bike along the Lilydale-Warburton rail trail this weekend. The trip had a bit of everything: scenic views, sunshine, a flat tire and lots of caches. We want to thank the cache owners for all the effort they put into creating and maintaining their caches.
DNF. Well, this is a harder one alright. Bad reception due to tree cover, and it incorporates two of my pet dislikes - haystacking and hides in foliage with limited hints. Taking a reasonable 10 metre radius, there are over 300 square metres in which to look, and plenty of the hints in that lot!
I concentrated on what I thought was the obvious area, and then spread my search. I ended coming back to the obvious but still no find. I found several tracks though! - at least four.

Well, we did this the hard way, and then found the easy way on the way down... I'm really glad to get this one and tick off a box on the harder side of my D/T matrix (and not have to climb any trees or go kayaking!). We had a lovely afternoon walking the dog and introducing my niece to geocaching. My six-year-old didn't go up this track with us, but on the way down we saw he could have. A wonderful day, due in part to Jacimarble's inventive caches.
#278 - Great location, a nice walk along the Aqueduct trail to get to the cache. Tftc!
You were right, going down was much tougher than going up! Mitchaaa and I found this pretty quickly once we reached the top. Thanks for showing us this beautiful trail. TFTC
Cant believe it took me as long as it did to find it it was right in front of me the whole time tftc
Out geocaching on a day off today with the target of finding my 3000th cache.
This is my first for the day and was a reasonably quick find although the iPhone was jumping around a little. All in good order.
Thanks for placing this cache Jacimarble

Was worried the recent wind storms might have displaced this hanging cache... But all good, took some searching but we found it. With TJ
Entered one way, left the other. Cache lying on the ground, so I replaced it as it was meant to be. Thanks Jacimarble.
I found this cache today at 6:10pm as number 6 of 7 on my Mt Evelyn Divert the Way Home II. Not as tough a climb as I thought that it may have been. Thanks from D B-A.
Found 10:47:00 AM, after a brief search, during a during our Sunday bike ride, along the Warbuton Rail Trail.
TNLN, thanks Jacimarble.
TNLN, thanks Jacimarble.
Out and about with Slink1 when an unexpected turn of events left us with some time on our hands - what to do? Grab a couple of local caches thats what. TNLN SL
A detour home presented an opportunity for Dunko and I to pick up a few caches, A big thank you to Jacimarble for the effort and placement of this cache
Found this one today. I had found it and replaced the log when a relative newbie and family came along. I helped them with a few hints and they found the cache too. I think when I opened the cache I dropped something but couldn't find anything on the ground. Signed log today.
Thanks for the cache Jacimarble.

Loving the Jacimarble caches. Thanks for the walk. Sat for a moment enjoying the scenery until Geodog standing guard at my bike started crying. Left a small gift.
Nearly missed this one. About to give up when I turned around for a last glance, but I happened to be at the right angle. What a billy goat track! TFTC
Nice little hike, don't recommend when it's damp as it's slippery! But good hide! Thanks
Took the wrong route to this one initially...was a bit high. Though it was going to get the better of me...but found when I sat to think about it.
Went looking for this one and looked high and low and couldn't find it I must be blind hope its still there I will be back
The track was far less heinous than advertised. We clambered up without mishap, found the cache after a couple of minutes aimless wandering and then sat and enjoyed the view for a moment. Not too many muggles in the few minutes we were hunting. Dog got stuck in bushes on the way down. TFTC!
I looked for this yesterday, but with limited time I was unable to find it. The weather was starting to spit rain and I had to meet my wife further down the grade, so gave up and went home. Upon reading some of the previous logs, I went back today and found it quite easily. Thanks.

Mrs Lost Wanderer lived only minutes away from here until she was married. Her geo folks still live there. It was a lovely walk to the cache. It was hard to get a gap in the traffic of walkers and cyclists to get to the cache . Understand why it's a popular area though. Thanks for the cache.
Couldn't find it we probably could Of if we had more time. We only had five minutes to do it. Although it was a nice walk in the reserve.
Managed to park further away than required (doh) and made the trip in on foot. Was glad to see this one on approaching the gz as I had had stumbled and tripped enough already and I didn't need to make this one any extra difficult than needed. A nice quiet afternoon with no muggles to be seen as I signed the log. Able to catch my breath and take in some views and then made my way back down to the vehicle. Thanks Jacimarble for the cache.
This cache was found during a Monday night cache run with Blacklegend, Trailrunning and Rebel Acts (TDC). A great variety of caches found with some really nice hides. Many thanks to the cache owners for placing the caches we found.
Another TDC run, and another day/night out caching. A cold night, with some good caches found, and no DNF's. A few mysteries and a few multis included in the caches found. My personal thanks to all the cache owners for their hides.

Found on a TDC run, lots of laughs and good times had while out finding caches. Looks like winter was on the way as it sure was cold tonight, we had to take a double dose of TDC toughen up tonight. Not sure about 3.5T but I will take it, I would say 2.5 but I gues we are used to this sort of stuff. Thanks Jacimarble for the cache.
Another cache found and logged tonight. Nice walk.

I'd been looking forward to meeting up with The Demolition Crew for another run through Melbourne. The night air was getting cold, so you could tell Winter was well on it's way. We were held up at one particular cache tonight, but after few attempts we were able to walk away with no DNF's. Thanks to jacimarble for the cache.

The hippee had a muffled yippee for the ftf here. The previous cache stuffed me but this was a good one enjoyed it. Bit harder coming down the hill but other then 2 steps was an easy grade.
