I have fount this cache before so know where it was and what it looks like. Is not in its intended position and had a real good look on the ground at GZ for it. It is not there, needs to be archived now looking at the time since the last find.

Although I saw all the DNFs I had a good look around as I was in the area. I had no luck either.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

12:29, 11 Nov 2017, with OzHockeyChick and Mark&Kelly and myself and about 15 mins of looking and no such luck here ... time for the CO to come and check if its still here or not.. lots of DNF's

No good today, 4 sets of eyes but no joy for us. Almost 12 months with no finders...this one might be gone.

No luck for us today.

Can we get cache owner to come and confirm cache is still around?

No joy here this afternoon. Thanks anyway.

To hard for me

I don't this the cache is there anymore I was looking all around the tree and area around and couldn't find anything I think a small animal has taken it

Couldn't find this sneaky one in the dark!

This evening after dinner, i had a caching itch i needed to scratch, so I headed out to find a few from this woody series.

This was the first one we found, and the only one that didn't have us climbing up a tree. Very sneaky hide - this is definitely not an eclipse tin! All is well at GZ, TFTC!

Good hide

Climbed not there walked around put arms deep into holes...drove
Me nuts til I found it...literally nuts.

A short hunt failed to reveal the treasure today. Have to return when I have more time.And perhaps gloves!

Come back to this one....

Too tricky for me

Tftc

Third time lucky, we finally found this sneaky hide. Tftc

Got it. Very sneakily hidden. Thought I had to go further but a second look had me looking right at it. TFTC

Couldn't find it

Pretty sure it's not there anymore

Itchy legs! Looked for ages and could not find...

Looked for ages with a few people but could not find it

May have pushed it back in a bit far for the next to find! Small hands needed but it is there! Cheers for the cache

Co-ords were spot on.Cache was very easy to find due to being partially exposed. rehidden. TFTC

Great spot

Great one!

Found by Turbo31 on 30/9/15 with PR&F and The Empire + H.
Geomum was checking some notes on her phone and realised she hadn't logged our find!.looking forward to finding more caches.TFTC!

I found this with cache with my bf while we were on a date night. It was a bit harder in the dark. We almost left without finding it but ended up having one last look

Out for a mini caching run this morning in the South Morang area, anywhere in the north to avoid the rain that was bucketing down in the Vermont area.
First spot I looked, yeah. A little sucker.
Thanks for placing this cache ELERT261419

Found with my little sistas! TFTC

Kids had fun with this one

A quick easy find while attending to cache maintenance in the area. TFTC

Nice easy find.

TFTC

Suscoe's 13th find of today as we explored this area of Melbourne.
We have not ventured this way before and so we enjoyed seeing the countryside and the amazing development that has taken place throughout the area.
A quick find for suscoe here today.
Thanks to ELERT261419 for this cache.

Found with NimesayNikya

This was my first find, found it with my awesome mum FindingTink

Tried scaling thinking it was going to be like other woodies in the area but then looked more closely and recognized the cunningly camo'd cache at 15:00. TFTC

TFTC, very clever hide

Well hidden!!!!!

Bucketing Rain Today. Found it and quickly signed it in the car. TFTC!!!

Well that's certainly what i would call a micro. Nice camo job, had me going for a couple of minutes.

Thanks ELERT261419 for the cache
Found 16 December 2014 18:15

Cache 768 for Scooters Mob

Cool. Very small

Great hide ! TFTC

Quick find, clever little hide and camo.
TFTC

Nice easy find in a good spot. Loved the container.
TFTC

Lucky I had my geo-senses working tonight, spotted this 5 metres out, saved me clinbing too high on this slippery tree , with all the rain we had today. Cache was separated from its holder, pushed it back in tight, TFTC

Another fun hide. Well disguised. TFTC. And no climbing!

A muggle with some mini muggles but we were to pick for them to figure out what we were doing never seen a mint tin like that before!...guess this was an organic version hehe. Took nothing...left nothing....thanks for the cache!

Found it quite easy not eclipse like in the description but cute little thing hope it doesn't act like Alice and fall down the hole

Easy find

Haha that cache made me laugh, good little stash. Kids hit the park , I hit the tree and found straight away. Time for lunch!!

Running out of caching time, this was my final cache of the afternoon. More like a nice walk in the park really, although I still felt like a pin cushion after finding Woody Found the Ruins. Like the camouflage for this one. A nice easy finish to the afternoon anyway.

Thanks again to Elert261419 another great cache.

this one was a perfect height for me,
the rains have really set in now so this will be my last one for the day,

thanks ELERT261419 [:x]

Tricky! This was our second attempt. Nice hide.

2nd go. Got it this time. .

Ohh clever, very clever

2.15 Out and about with Echinda44 for the day. Having checked out the ruins nearby we decided to walk to this one. Plenty of parklands around. Nice easy find and just at my right level. Cute camo style although the write up did not indicate it.
Thanks for the cache Elert261419

Walked on to this "Woody" from the other nearby cache. It was a cleverly hidden, we'll crafted cache. Thanks ELERT261419

Did a check up on this one today and replaced the log. Cache is still in great condition and ready to be found.

Oh no, not another woody....your turn to climb said hubby. But alas, a nice surprise. I managed to keep both feet firmly on the ground. Love the camo.

Tricky!

Went out with Jezzaaaa and my younger sister on our first caching hunt. Not the easiest find, but was still lots of fun. TFTH

Another Monday and what a cold one it was, we clocked up a few KM's tonight finishing some Mulits and a couple of puzzles that have been in the solved pile for some time. Thanks ELERT261419 for the cache.

Another cold Monday night see's Rebel Acts and I on the trail looking for plastic. A small haul was made due to the number of multi's , muggles and tricky hides. Easy find, now it was replaced. Last time it was not here. Thanks.

Date corrected

I met up with Day1976 for an afternoon and evening of caching. We decided to start north east of the city and work our way west towards an event we were going to attend later that night at Point Cook. The weather had looked a bit ominous earlier on but held off for us and it was actually pretty mild all evening.
We actually did five 'Woody' caches this afternoon, all with varying degrees of trickiness. Not as tricky to get to this one and a nice quick find and sign. Onto the next Woody.
Thanks ELERT261419.

Took the afternoon off work to catch up with Quasar3671 for a bit fo a caching run through the northern suburbs. Tricky, very tricky!

Found it with AnnaTherese

Another of yours we could actually reach without scrambling up to the top of trees. Funsize Manor is now hooked on caching. The thrill of the find is getting to him. TFTC

It was another monthly caching run with Biggles Bear, this time closer to home in the suburbs of Melbourne. Nice quick find, and an easy retrieve.

Thanks to ELERT261419 for the cache.

Found 11:52:00 AM, in the company of Muzza, during our April caching day out

TNLN, thanks ELERT261419.

Found with jamesbarden22 a while back forgot to log TFTC

Quick find at GZ. I like the cache design too, it's a shame you're hiding it away though.

Tftc

Found cache on ground. Fixed and placed in a different way but in the same spot.

Second time around and it still hasn't been checked..

Two of us had a good search, but no luck.

Nope no joy. Long search may need maintenance as per previous

Will check this one when I have a chance.

After a decent search we came up bare. Either it's a good hide or it's gone. Pretty sure it's gone as we knew what we were looking for.

Bugger just couldn't find this one !

11:18
I toyed with the idea of doing a Wherigo in the inner suburbs, but the weather didn't look particularly promising. A trip to the tip to recycle a few dead bits of technology sent me north-ish, so continuing in that direction until I ran out of time seemed as good a plan as any.

The contrary weather has one advantage: the nearby playground was empty, otherwise I'd have had to wait until the next time I cached with my kids.

Less physically challenging than my previous grab, but camoed nicely to blend in with its surrounds. Well done on a fine job.

Another playground, another cache. Found today with the young geo kids. Clever hide. TFTC.

Another too woody hide today although I was glad that the playground was empty. Nice bit of natural cover.

Good hide

Cool Cache!

After dropping this tricky little cache in the bush we soon found it and put it back tftc

found it TFTC

Such a good hiding spot!

I think that has got to be the fastest cache I have ever found.
24/9/13 @12:48

At last a tree cache the clan can reach. Tried a couple of others in this series but they were beyond our reach. Not so this one. Mwah hah hah haaaa! Bow to the unfit, overweight clan member who has at last beaten the mighty tree cache. TFTC LOL. I am awarding a favorite point just for the satisfaction obtained by this find.

Damn GPS had me lookin and climbing the wrong tree LOL
Got the right tree and final found. Nice one and hide.
Thanks FTC

On a RDO today decided to combine a short ride with a couple of caches. The find was easy but getting the log out was bit hard reminded me of how you can catch a monkey every time I grabbed the log I couldn't remove my hand but got there in the end. A little too close to the play ground for liking but with the wet weather no kids playing today. Liked the camo.

Good one Woody! Very clever - I enjoyed finding this one while the grandkids played in the playground. TFTC

Last cache of the day & we're very grateful to get out of this wind. Another quick find. TFTC!

Easily found this afternoon certainly not the Elert hide I have come to expect nonetheless still a good hide. Tftc
