N/M log from last January not acted on. CO hasn't logged on since last January. Cache appears to have been abandoned.
Drove to Wonthaggi, to pick up a few more caches on the local walk trails.
This was our second look, but sadly a DNF for us.

I've checked this one today. It's definitely gone. We need to get out and do some maintenance in a few it seems!
This was a very clever cache and the trees were amazing. We enjoyed walking through this beautiful area and had a great day.
[font=Comic Sans MS][Green]I'm heading eastwards on a day caching in and around Wonthaggi with Square_Pegs after leaving Melbourne early this morning before sunrise. Later on, I got the opportunity to find this cache in good condition and in a great location complete with a perfect ladder.
It's been too long since my last visit. Thanks cazza_thats_me for making this an enjoyable day exploring

The GPS was thankfully playing ball under the tree cover and led me straight to GZ. We spotted the container, and after a quick shimmy, the log was signed. A nice little part of the reserve with some different plant life.
Thanks for the cache.
Thanks for the cache.
We were on a weekend visiting our grandson for his 3rd birthday and then followed by a geo event in Wonthaggi; Following the event, we headed off to grab a few of the multitude of Wonthaggi caches and this was one. Considering the tree cover, the co-ords were very good. Bill retrieved this one

GPS wasn't cooperating so it was a matter of pick the tree, but thankfully madeforrichmond again said "what's that" and a very short climb later log was signed. A couple of passing kangaroos stopped for a look, but figured we were just monkeys up a tree and moved on. Tftc
found with crig and la mina. second cache found by me today. they wouldn't have found it without me. it looked like a goose from a distance. TFTC
Found this one with madeforrichmond and crig. With no muggles about, i thought this would be easy, but along came two kangaroos. What a sight to privilege. TFTC cazza
While enjoying another Easter away with friends I got time to check out some of the trails I have never been before. Having picked up a couple of others along the track this was my next. Needed to call on my younger strength to retrieve this one . Cute container
Thanks for the cache
Thanks for the cache
We enjoyed the walk along this trail - tree cover provided dappled shade on a beautiful warm day. We saw no one else on the trail. The different hides certainly kept us entertained. This was one we were able to find, reasonably convenient where it is located . Thanks to cazza_thats_me for placing this cache.
It was my monthly caching expedition with Biggles Bear today. With over 40 caches and only 3 DNF's, it was a successfuly day's caching. Nice quick find. BB#2 liked this one.
Thanks to cazza_thats_me for the cache.

Melbourne parties Friday noon and returned Tuesday morning in Melbourne. I came here to make different trail of caches in the area. It was intense few days with my bike but very nice! I could find caches with superb camouflage, very good ideas from the cachers. This log will be the same for all caches that I made (sorry) But I want to congratulate in particular:
Nut bear & BorisB & Natasha for "Bay Trail" and "Red Hill Express" (Beautiful cover!)
The Three Amigos Geo for "The Pathway"
Gonefishen07 for the great "Rail Trail"
As well as other geocacher who I discovered several caches during these few days.
Thank you very much
Greetings from France
I will be at Mega event with my friend who just especially France also "Ckronos"

One of 70 caches found today during a day / night caching run. I headed down the Bass Hwy through Woolamai and Kilkundra and onto Wonthaggi where I spent most of the day. Once it was time to move on, I grabbed some dinner for the road and headed up north through the rolling hills of Kongwak, through Korrumburra, Strzelecki and Torwood before turning west, making my way to Lang Lang and then onto home.
The weather was perfect for caching and during the day I had just one DNF. I also managed to find a couple of caches needed for my D/T requirements. There were a nice variety of caches with some challenging walks and the trusty old bike came out on a couple of occasions. Plenty of great locations and some great scenery as well. Thanks to all the CO's who placed the caches I found today.
As I headed to the wetlands I stopped here to pick up the two caches hidden along the track. A bit of monkey work here and I soon had the cache in hand and the log signed. Thanks for the hide.

Nearrly lost the log as geo hubby was mucking about swinging the cache container to get the log out whoops ...... one big arm swing and the log went where? Spent more time looking for the log on the ground than the actual cache. Found with banana 1 Banana2 and Banana 3. TFTC
1.1.2014 found by sunnyindiatilli.lives up to its name.bit hard in the rain .TFTC
Had a great day caching and enjoying the outdoors as usual. Many kilometres put on the geoPatrol to add to the numbers. Now it is a waiting game for the next opportunity to get out again.
Many thanks cazza_thats_me for placing this cache.

Found by Mary & David, in company with pprass and micaparamedic, at 0915. Our second find along this track. Spotted the cache shortly after arriving at GZ. Our thanks to cazza_thats_me.
Found at 9:13 AM GAFF5 in the company of maccamob and micaparamedic. We had a bit of a discussion about the method of placement of this appropriate cache container, but then realised it was dead
Thanks cazza_thats_me.

Bogonghazy spotted this one, we made our mark on the log and were on our way again. Thanks for the cache.
I love these little extra challenges at GZ so Sully was happy to watch while I did the retrieval.
Thanks for another cache that reminds us of our younger days cazza that's me.

With the weather forecast promising us quite a nasty hot day we were out and about by bike fairly early in search of smilie faces. We did a bit of swinging in the wrong place first - the little fella probably laughed at us from his hiding spot nearby.

Off for an afternoon of caching with princessdiala and ColeyBaby. Got dropped off so we could get a couple along the trail and picked up at the other end. A quick and easy find. TFTC.
The day was heating up but it was lovely and cool under the trees. Another fun cache, but a few sink holes amongst the grass to avoid. Thanks for another enjoyable cache
Found with Gonefishen07 Thing No1 and my cuz. Trying to help gonefishen07 get closer to 2000. TFTC
Found with Zobo04, Thing No1 and Thomo. On a mission to get my numbers up closer to 2000. Today was the day as I wanted my event to be my 2000 cache and I was fast running out of time. Zobo04 did the honors here after my Iphone decided to behave it's self. TFTC
Out with my caching buddy Slink1 revisiting Wonthaggi today picking up some caches we had not had time for the last time we were here. It was a fine sunny day and we had a few laughs and enjoyed the caching.
Thank you to cazza_thats_me for the chache TNLNSL

Found on a arvo touring around the area and collecting a few caches along the way, a very pleasant trip and as always we enjoyed where the caching took us along with the hunt. A big thank you to cazza_thats_me for the effort and placement TNLN SL
Out for a walk with geo daughter, Ross 47, Izzy Seb and Cozy95. Just as well we had Ross with us although I saw it first. TFTC
A great morning for a walk so we've set out from home with the intention of finding your 4 new caches in the Wetlands. This one was an Interesting hide and gets a Fav listing from us. TFTC
Another hide with Cazza, not really a find, but hate having it unfound in my searches!!
Interesting hide. Decided to go look for these on my way home from the Doctors (even though I couldn't breath, you can't let that get in the way of a new cache ) Even though I was sick it was totally worth it because I now have my first FTF. I only just got it before I spotted a couple of other cachers on the trail. They beat me to FTF on the next one, but oh well, at least I got one.
