Second attempt, this time with Wal-Len lending another pair of eyes and still haven't a clue where it is. Several DNF s and no find since my last attempt several months.
Not for us today. Not sure if it's on the shelter as GPSr was pointing elsewhere but that item also proved fruitless. Thanks anyway.
Another one added armed with knowing exactly what we were looking for and long string of dnfs i think it's time this was checked by the co will be logging a needs maintenence
An initial DNF, and a return visit armed with a hint failed to locate any sign of the cache
GPS was all over the place and if it's in the bus shelter, as previously stated, the shelter has been replaced recently.
Looked high and low for this one to no avail. Was a good spot for one though. We will be back.
Not sure if this has been checked lately as there has been a new bus stop that has been built near GZ.
The GPSr had us all over the place at this location. At one point misschief18 was stood out in the middle of the road?! We searched high and low, back and front for this little beggar and almost gave up when Lo!! and Behold!! There it was - the rotten little beast. Had to leave Bentley TB in the geo vehicle for this one as the road was way too busy

Found with taurus1955 and BentleyTB. This one had us on the point of giving up so many times. It was taurus1955 who eventually made the find. Good one! Just as well it was school holidays, but it was still a very busy road. TFTC
Oh look, another late log by Ms-Enchantress! Who would have thought!
Must be the day to tackle Jared caches, I was able to tick a few off on this day.. Yet another nasty hide...
Thanks Jared for bringing us here :)

One we had tried for in the past and frustration crept in, Jared is a sneaky sneakster. Thanks for the challenge, happy to be adding our name to the log along with Ms_enchantress this sunny December day. TFTC SL TNLN TBV
06/12/2015 - to 3.30pm - 1st & only DNF for the day - with dgfb33. Weather had decided to turn out hot after the clouds had departed . Finding device was certain / uncertain & consistently saying we should be elsewhere. Co-ords were trying to make our search in the middle of the main road on some occasions. Looked for quite some time & more that I liked in the hot until we decided we'd have to admit defeat today & make this one a DNF. Another day ...
On a cache hunting/work avoiding trip accompanied by ceebee2013. Our GPS devices were all over the place here, leading us over a large area which contained many likely hiding spots. Between the lack of help from our Garmins and the heat of the sun breaking through the clouds we called it a day, but only after we had given it a good try. We gave most attention to the most likely spot to no avail. We will return.
Another great find while in the area for the Melbourne Mega.
Thanks for adding to the enjoyment of this trip.
Found after a short search.

Hunted for way too long, and didn't have the "aha" moment.
Wasn't sure if it was actually ON the shelter as the cords kept pointing all 3 of our devices over on the grass.
Sadly a DNF for us

In the Drouin area for the day. 2 DFN's and three finds.
I spent about 10-15 minutes looking for this cache and I was just about to give up and log a DFN.
I noticed something not quite right, I checked it out and YES it was the cache.
A favourite Point given for this cache
'Scrat' visited your cache whilst on his Great Aussie Adventure.

We decided to give this one another go after a couple of further attempts after our first. We were just about to head home very frustrated again knowing we had to be so close!! Literally in the very last second of almost giving up it was found with relief! Again another excellent camo hide JARED75182. Cant wait to find more of your hides!! TFTC
After dropping the parents off at the caravan park down the road, we headed off to this one to make the best use of time before picking them up again. After reading a few logs and realising it might not be a simple park and grab we resigned ourselves to the long haul. Not wanting to give up, the Moose finally put his hands on the hide. Thanks for the challenge, we were thinking we'd lost our caching mojo.
Dunko and I decided to head off for a casual caching run today, a great afternoon for caching with the warm weather. we managed to collect some caches we had bypassed in our travels previously. A very big thank-you to Jared75182 for the time and effort in the placement of this cache
So we managed to get our act together with as much enthusiasm as we could muster and decided to head off for some impromptu caching today. It was a good afternoon for caching with the warm weather and dispite both of us not really being into it for some reason we enjoyed ourselves. We thought we would look at some we never seem to get to but keep saying we will get that next time. Well today was the next time. TFTC TNLN SL.
Tried finding at night, but was able to find quickly in the day once we read the gps was out a bit. Found with falken2fear and son
Nearly too good for me even with a clue! Finally found after a cold arvo!
Out caching with the kids & Bounty Trackers on the school holidays. Thanks for the great cache.
This hide was too good for us. We visited a couple of days ago and the gps had us near the road. We resorted to phoning a friend for a hint which put us back on track for a find today. I'm very impressed that a man recovering from man flu got the FTF. Well done Bounty Trackers, and thanks for the helpful hint. Thanks too to Jared 75182 for a variety of clever hides to keep us on our toes.
Couldn't find it nope too good for us. We don't seem to have our caching eyes in today
I don't know how many times I overlooked this nifty little hide, before I finally decided to just check it. Turns out it was the cache. Great camo. Thanks Jared75182 for a great hide!!
I had just left a customers place and had to kill 15 minutes, what better way when there is a cache not 4 kms away. I parked nearby and after finishing a few phone calls had a look. After a five minute search I spied something out of the ordinary. Chuffed that I located the cache.
Thanks for the cache Jared75182.
Needless to say with the quality of your hides, there are a few happy local cachers around!!

Saw this one come up yesterday but was at home sick with the man flu so left it for the other cachers in town.After going to Narre Warren and doing 3 jobs, on the way back to Warragul I checked to see if it had been found yet, to my surprise there had been no logs but we all know that this doesn't mean it hasn't been found yet, so I decided to make my way out here to see if a ftf was still on the cards. Took me about 10 mins searching before I came up with the hide and it all PAYED off as I got the $5 ftf prize. Sl Thanks jared75182 for the great cache and the fiver. Also giving it a favourite point.
2nd to find.GPS had us going everywhere for a while but we persisted and after a careful search came up with the goods. Well done Jared75182 and congratulations to Bounty Trackers.
