A magnet was not apart of the cache when I found it, its very good CAMO but no magnet, I don't believe this should have been flagged for archive or disabled!!

Search for ages. Saw where it should have been (magnetized) but it ain't there. No way ho zay. Oh well.
Good one! A fav point!
Its been such a long time since I have had time to find caches, something I would like to change in 2019, more time for me and more time for caching… lets see how I go!
I originally marked this cache as ‘found’ FLTF – full log to follow. Here I am well over a month on and I haven’t’ added a full log yet! So her I am typing up a generic copy and paste log, I do apologise that it isn’t a unique log for your cache. Thank you for suppling me/us with a cache to do along the way. I got a few caches orders and finds muddled so I am sorry if I created confusion, I think I have corrected that error now.
Found these caches while staying in Seaspray in early January, we watched the Rosedale fires flare up….terrible to see

I found this on the ground as if a piece of rubbish.
Hopefully returned to its rightful place.

Ooh bit tricky with the muggles today. When I saw the location and description I thought I knew what it would be for sure... got some strange looks stroking the pole!!! However, victory was mine. So glad the car broke down here! Fave point from me... so boldly obvious yet no one else would have any idea what is inside. This is the magic I love!
Our names are certainly on the log sheet. A very interesting style of hide and we must say it is the only one of this style that we have found. SL TFTC
The last time geoD was here he was with 3000 crazy other people of the Great Victorian Bike Ride. That amount of people precluded any sort of search being made but there were no such issues today. Cache was found in good order

2nd time we came prepared with tools. Replaced old log with new log for co. If you would like the old log send me a pm and will organise to get it to you. Tftc
Excellent camo - we found it this morning but had to go back to camp and get pliers to get out the paper scroll. Love it - TFTC.
Clever hide. Able to access log but could not retrieve - no appropriate tool for the job. Log jammed in there & I didn’t want to damage. Sent photo to CO.

Found it. TFTC. Took a couple of goes to find it but hoorah. Log scroll full added a length of paper.
Revisited the cache so my 2 sons could log the find under their own new accounts, but log is full for this cache now.
An awesome cache.. I can see why the logs previously referenced it being sneaky. I had two goes at this, firstly I had no idea, my gps was bouncing around and the place had lots of passing muggles, I got back into the car and thought... No.. I have to find it, so back I went and soon had it in hand thanks for the hide, looks like the log is quite full and needing replacing
Over from nz travelling from Sydney to Melbourne grabbing a few along the way with HKB94 and co .
Once I trusted the GPS it was a quick find have seen one like this before in Dunedin. Tftc

An quick find here by Petal and although we've found these before, she cautiously opened the container. Now the log here is totally full, no room for names as the silvery log sheet is hard to write on, so we stamped.
Thanks for the cache The Geo-Baristas

#1355 Day 5 of the 2017 Great Vic Bike Ride from Wilson's Prom to Trafalgar. (still catching up on my logs and it is almost Christmas!) Located this one the previous evening but a couple of the GVBR support vehicles with their drivers and passengers were parked all around GZ. Came back after breakfast the next morning and all was clear. TNLNSL. TFTC The Geo-Baristas. A really neat camo which we will reward with a favourite. The log was pretty much full (see attached pic) so signed at the top.
Spotted the cache quickly when I came to GZ. Had to come back a few times, to see if muggles were gone, but a very impressive camouflage. TFTC
Not many around today so we were able to spend a good while having a poke around. Good thing, as the coords were a bit jumpy. Looked at a few possible spots before wandering a bit further and having an "a-ha" moment. Should we touch it? Gave a gentle little tug and was relieved to learn it really was what we were seeking. Nice one! Log was hard to get out - the plastic log looked to be full so we squeezed our name onto the paper log which was also full. TFTC
Super clever! Long search with Mr 5, 6, 9 and grandparents. Didn't have tools to extract log. Thanks for the search
Pulling up near GZ, I had an inkling of what I might be looking for and was naturally wrong. As soon as I spied the container, which I have found a few before, I knew what had to be done but unfortunately it was very, very hard to access the log.
Getting my multi tool from the car assisted and we were soon signing in very small letters so as not to take up too much space.
Thanks Geo-Baristas for another local cache.

Passing through this morning, looks like a new caravan park in town, might have to come back to stay another time. This hide had me in circles, I spotted it first time around but dismissed it.. nice hide, log book needs replacing soon. Great idea!
Geocaching with SwagHo on holidays in Australia from Canada. TFTF. Very clever hide first for me
That was one awesome container and placement, earning a fave. First one I've ever seen like that. Here with HennyGeo on holidays in fascinating Australia from Vancouver Island Canada TFTC, Geo-Barristas.
On my own out feeding my addiction while having a few days camping I set out for seaspray. I nearly gave up on this one as the eyes that may have been upon me were daunting. I had looked at this a couple of times and thought yeah I'll give it a go and Woohoo! Got it..... Clever hide never seen before . Tyftc
I found myself in Seaspray to visit a client and, arriving 20 minutes early, I decided to hunt for this nearby cache. I parked on the wrong side of Memorial Park, braved the sprinkling rain and trudged through the wet grass to the picnic shelter. There, I consulted my GPS and was directed to excellent coordinates, but it did take two dashes out from the shelter before I braved what I had to do to extract the log. A dash back to shelter to sign it, and another to return it. Clever hide; reminded me of another cache in Inverloch with the same idea but different methodology. TFTC Geo-Baristas.
Replaced log sheet, log was wet, not sure of true placement, hid in same coordinate.
Please refer to my log. Found Cache and log on ground. I have replaced it but may fall out. The container
Came apart as I was replacing it.
Also log may need to be replaced. Thanks

Day tour to sea spray and Golden beach.
Found the cache and log on ground. Looks like it fell out of its hideout. Put all back together as best as I could and put it back.
Enjoyed our day and the cache. Thanks.

Had to wait for the mowing to be completed so walked out and found the nearby cache on the island. Located the sneaky hide when we returned. TFTC
Very clever. Was afraid to touch this one until I read the logs of others. Signed piece of paper left by a previous cacher. TFTC
Had a morning appointment in Seaspray on Monday that I was running early for, so I stopped at this park to do some prep work. A quick check of the geocaching app and I was happily surprised to find I was almost sitting on a cache! So off on the hunt I went. There was some guy who kept popping in and out of his front yard with his surf boards nearby which meant I felt I was being watched but when I felt he'd disappeared for a moment I had a quick fiddle with something that I thought I probably shouldn't be touching... and lo and behold there it was!!! Very frustratingly I didn't have extraction tools with me so short of damaging the log or doing a weird chicken dance with onlookers I wasn't able to sign the log. I will be back with a pen next time I'm in town to rectify this situation but thought I'd log this in the order of finds. Thanks for such an inventive cache Geo-Baristas.
Wow what a great spot found on labour day weekend with the family log was too hard to get out with out getting noticed
Found at 3:50 PM GAFF1.
Now we are not totally sure that we found the cache here. We found a set up at GZ, but there was no log to write our name on. Also there was a plastic nut a few centimetres away from the set up. We put it back together again the best we could and put a piece of paper in for the log.
Thanks The Geo-Baristas.

Glad to be able to log this one this time. Last time it was a DNF for me as my GPS was indicating in the wrong place. I actually found the cache last time once i'd widened my search, but was too scared to grab what I thought was right. It annoyed me since I left though and this time approached with no fear and was able to make the find. None of my pens would write on the plasticky log, but it didn't matter because the log is full and needs replacement anyway. Tore off a small piece of paper and added to the cache so I could sign. One favourite point from me, thank you
Very Clever! if it was not for being with SQAU I may have missed this cache all together!
After retrieving we had to wait a moment to replace as the road suddenly for a little busy

Spotted this one straight away ("why on earth is that there?") and after a little bit of fiddling managed to extract the log, make our mark and return the cache thingy back to it's original position. Even though it was a quick find, I'm gonna mark this one down as one of my favourites because it was a clever setup and not a damn Sistema box!
Kudos to the Geo-Baristas for the clever cache hide!

Took us forever to find. Didn't get it until our builder dad came and had a look. Log needs to be replaced as it is full. Hidden in plain sight!!
Bloody good hide. Tftc. Took us a little bit but we noticed a couple of irregularities and soon had it in hand
Our first find for the year. Great hide. Pen wouldnt work on plastic log.... J.E.A.N
Clever hide, thankfully we had seen something similar in NZ. Always appreciate caches with that little something special. A favorite from us. Tftc
Came back for another go at this. Think I found it but the risk if I am wrong isn't worth it. Or maybe I didnt find it and am alive to tell the tale?
Ok. Log signed abbreviated to "S Van" as the log paper was a bit wax like. Feel two feet taller for having done it
Found by Geohub. That looks out of place - we have one on our caravan that works!
Getting very hard to write on the log, managed to leave our "scratch" as 16/9/15 DM. Clever hide, gets a fave from us

Found 3rd May 2015 10/10 for ingenuity ~ very clever cache Harveyspectre and the running girls
Narrowed down the search and did a bit of should we or not before we did. Great cache and raised our spirits on what has been a horrible wet day. Fav for this one!
One of the most interesting caches we have done on this trip. Luckily there was no one around while figured out what to do. Fav for sure.
Found on a family caching afternoon enjoying the last of the school holidays and sunny days. TFTC very, very clever and one of the most unique we've seen to date! TFTC
Have tried to find this once before without any luck. This saw the possible hide straight away and there it was. Great hide. Tftc
What an awesome cache! Thanks heaps for it, such a great hide! How can a cache be in plain view but yet so well hidden? I couldn't find it last year, not too proud to log it as a DNF, couldn't find it yesterday even though I touched it yesterday, but today I found it after reading back through other logs and standing there and having a good think about it.
Unfortunately I couldn't get the log out to sign it, if you message me I will give you all the details to confirm this is not a false find (I suspect others weren't able to get the log out either). But I am adding a pair of tweezers to my kit after this one.
