As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been longer than 28 days since the last reviewer note. I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.
I spent a while looking, even called a friend who had found this in January to see if he could recall its location. I think someone must have taken it since then
Spent quite a while looking for it...read other's comments and it sounds like something has happened to this cache - might need to be reviewed

Others have not found this recently either, so I'm assuming it's missing.
Thanks anyway Fighting Fury

Looked for 45 mins and gave up. No clue where it could have been hidden.
On the bike on a drizzly day so I thought that I would attempt a couple of caches on the way. There has been a bit of cache creep so a more apt hint would be 'Ybbx nebhaq naq qbja'. TFTC.
Suscoe's 6th find of 29 for today as we wandered around the Eastern suburbs.
It was a wet start to the day but the rain turned to drizzle and then it stopped with a heavy sky and no sun for the day.
Not many folks out walking today with the weather the way it was.
This was an interesting hide, took a little while for the GPS to play ball here.
Thanks to Fighting Fury for showing us this art work.

Decided to make a geo trail on the way home from work and this was the first on my list
Parked opposite the park and it was a quick walk to GZ admiring the work of art on the fence of the nearby house.
A muggle coming towards me so I decided to take more of an interest in the tree beside me. Muggles introductional line was. Are you looking for a little box. He told me how it kept moving each time he walks his dog. He found it for me. He lives right next door to the park and notices people looking around there. I explained all about geocaching. I think we have another member. He also explained that the piece of art opposite was updated regularly by the production company who owns that place. The place is a dump.
Thanks for the cache Fighting Fury, I had a very interesting evening.

Nearly gave up a couple of times due to the multitude of conflicting information attached to this GC. Glad we persevered.
This was first on this morning's post-sport-drop-off bunch-o'-five. It had me going for a moment or two with Upoj continually pointing towards the art rather than where GZ actually ended up being. After a bit of scrounging though, I finally spotted the hide and was signing the log for our 3800th traditional find at 05:45.
I must agree that the hint is a tad confusing and unless gravity has taken its toll, basically incorrect.
TNLNSL, although a couple of our geocoins had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks Fighting Fury.

Got a little confused with the hint, was probablt better off not looking at it. Found with megwilson, TFTC!
Picked up in the way home from work. If you had asked me twenty years ago if it was art you would have got a different answer to today. I now accept that art comes in many forms and this is one of them. TFTC.
Cache was easily sighted on the path side of the tree only hidden by a few leaves, recent high winds possibly. Emptied out a lot of liquid but the log was still dry.
we walk the dog there very often. we were there either last week or the week before and my wife had a look and commented that the cache is gone
Interesting art !! Yes I stood back and took it all in to decide what it was depicting . Cache a little uncovered but replaced and hidden again.

Clue does,nt help with this one and it was at least 5m out on my GPS.Happy to find it and move on to the next hide.
Found it! But unfortunately picked up a geodoggy bag with a little surprise in it first#%!!
It was a bit dark to admire the artwork here tonight after work.
The cache was quickly found at EPE: 5mtrs. thanks to previous cacher's log.
Cache container doesn't seem to be very waterproof, contents swimming in a small amount of water.
I took it back to our geovehicle and emptied the contents and the water out. Dried it with a towel and CITOed most of the contents. 'Log' paper is damp, kudos to 'Kirra' for signing a leaf.
I added a signed log sheet in a small, watertight, plastic, screw top, milk sample bottle.
Micro zip bagged the log paper and leaf and left them for the CO.
Added some dry swag. Visited some travel bugs that we have been carrying around.
By the way, theschmeegleague & natstud, when you retrieve or drop a TB you need to log them on the app. I grabbed 'Climbing Monkey' and will take him to visit some trees.
The cache was replaced, as found, with a little more camo, however, I left it upside down as this may help keep the water out and it is on the ground, probably not where the CO placed it.

Yessss out first successful find! Wasn't where it was logged to be so we put it near the trees covered in leaf litter! Thanks for placing
Rushing home from working in the west to make orienteering in the east, sure there's enough time to get a cache or two tops.
Nice quick find and off I go to my next stop.

Kel and I along with the dream team left a little friend in this cache who likes to sit up high off the ground.
The second cache that I found today. After a woman walked her thee dogs past me in the laneway I made the find. The cache sits a little uneasily in its perch and the single sheet of logpaper is a tad damp.
Thanks for showing me this place

An easy find in the dark on my way home from work.
Log book was damp - well actually, not a log book but a piece of paper - and I emptied water out of the box.
However, thanks for getting me to stop on my way home and admire the art work.

Found on the ground again. Log was wet so added a new one. Did a couple of swaps.
Found it on the ground, but put it back up on the tree. It is pretty obvious.
I was surprised i rode my bike up the hill! The art was very beautiful but couldn't find the cache.
I went to the skate park after it and did some the jumps which for a big bike and first time is kinda scary.

One last cache for the day, this one proved to be a very easy find (I'm slightly surprised it was still in place, but glad it was)
Found it with BRJ. I tipped out some water and gave it a bit of a wipe out with tissue. Took toy soldier and left an eraser. Thanks!
Did not find! This is my first one and I don't know what I'm looking for?? You guys said it wouldn't last and I think it hasn't can't see it anywhere!
1st find we've logged, not too difficult when you look away from the art work on the wall
Found today while out and about with the Geodog. Had to poke around for a bit but we got there in the end. Thanks for the cache Fighting Fury.
This one is in my neighborhood so I keep an eye on it after finding it early on. Just walked by and noted it's not in its hide, think it may have been muggled? It was there 3 days ago. You may want to check.
A nice spot to turn around on my early morning run. Easy to spot this one when looking in the right spot! TFTC
Dunko and I found ourselves with an opportunity for some late arvo and evening caching today.
So after collecting Dunko we set off, along our route we found all caches we attempted without any issue, logged them and replaced as found. We enjoyed the types of hides and cache’s some we had to wait a short time for people to move on but that’s how it goes.

Slink1 and I found an opportunity to sneak out for some late in the day caching. So after mounting up we set off on our way to pick up a few in the local area. We were fortunate enough to find all caches we attempted without too much difficulty, logged and replaced them as we found them. We had a great outing and enjoyed the fun. TNLN TFTC SL.
There were a number of caches in this area that I had not found so I decided to go out this afternoon and find as many in the area as possible. The weather was very windy so there was not many people about for a Sunday afternoon. Found quickly at Gz as cache was clearly visible from one angle. Thanks Fighting fury

Out for a drive today as we had no other commitments for a pleasant change! Couldn't see for looking! The Chief jumped out of the car and went here it is. Definitely over thinking it! TFTC

Find # 3619
Streak: 212 days
After an epic fail at the nearby multi, I headed for this one as my cache of the day. I loved the current piece of artwork nearby to GZ, most impressive. I wandered around in circles a bit, but eventually located the nicely hidden cache.

I found the cache uncovered, I replaced it with more natural materials around it.
I loved the smell of this cache, there is a champagne cork in there.
I DO LOVE THE SMELL OF CHAMPAGNE IN THE MORNING (lol)
thanks fighting fury [:x]

Find #694
The usual Wednesday off and this is my first without a geonior or two to keep me occupied, so I decided to go for a bike ride.
Followed a path I haven't ever taken and thought that surely there may be a cache I haven't followed as well! Surely enough this cache popped up not too far ahead, and a fairly quick find was made, although my coords had me off by about 5m. Nothing too dramatic, but an easy find was made.
Quick sign of the log and I was back on my bike. Just the one today thanks!

My first find.
I've ridden through Hill 'n' Dale park many times and I've never noticed that laneway.

We found this cache today at 11:45am as cache 4 of a quick fire 6 before it gets hot. A very quick find here but with the lack of camo on this one, it may have a very short life unfortunately. Thanks from D, HA, H & A B-A.
Found @ 10:00pm, find # 2934.
Another Friday night cache hunt with biggles1024.
We made our way to GZ, which appeared to have no spot for a cache so we widened the search and we both spotted the cache at the same time.
Thanks to Fighting Fury for placing this cache.

Find #879
Out for another caching run with Stemicmitsar. A warm, Friday night resulted in many muggles being out and about too. [:(!]
The co-ords appeared to be spot on with both our GPSr showing 0 metres, but there was no where a cache could be hidden at those co-ords, so we widened our search and both spotted the cache at the same time. SL TFTC

Found with Listmaker. For the third time in a row she made the find while I was too busy looking at the GPS. I had even walked past it! Great to see that the artist had permission as I am not a fan of people who think that other peoples property is their's for the using. I have recently archived one of my mural caches partly because taggers have ruined the mural. I liked the colour balance on this one. If I had thought to take a photo I would post it.
Found this cache in the company of Alansee. Nice bit of street art plus it gave me an excuse to peer at the interesting house behind the fence. We used to live nearby and I've been intrigued by this house ever since.
Thanks for the cache, Fighting Fury.

Found on a hot afternoon just grabbing a few caches in between a few local parks. An interesting piece of work in a hidden area. Had no muggles to contend with today and managed a quick find, thanks Fighting Fury for the cache.
I love the places caching takes you! This little lane way by a park, an interesting old house, a great way to explore our city. Thanks for bringing us here and for the cache.
Nice easy find in a nice park.
Thanks Fighting Fury - Nice work, oh and the art as well.

Had a couple of DNFs tonight, made worse by many other attempts being muggled out. Everyone in Melbourne seems to be outdoors enjoying this mild summer night. Oh the nerve of them!
Eventually found this one on the map and turned out to be a very quiet location. Thanks Fighting Fury for saving the day

A perfect day to go out caching today so I hit the road with my two boys. Starting off in Parkdale we made our way north to Kew before heading back down south east where we finished in Glen Waverley before making our way back home. A nice variety of cache hides and types found including a few multis I've been wanting to do and a few puzzles I had solved.
There is quite a lot of art here and the boys liked all the colorful displays. Tyler spotted the cache at GZ and I gave him a lift to grab the cache.
Thanks for the hide.

Found with nedcj and donidoode. We sat down and had a break after finding the cache, but left the pen in the walkway when a car came. That was the end of that pen [B)]. TFTC
Found with nedcj98 and gozanators, as we were about to sign the log a car decided to come through the lane. In our haste we forgot the pen there which subsequently got crushed by the car . Thank god we brought spares.
Found by The Empire @ 2:35pm
Find number 9 of 10 in a quick afternoon cache hunt. The cache had fallen down from it's lofty perch, I replaced it where I think it should have been hidden. Thanks for the cache Fighting Fury.

After a shirt stroll down the lane we discovered the cache in no time at all. Nice little park. Tftc Tnln sl
Find 985 at 22:37. Tonight I was out on an evening caching run with Burge. I'm trying to reach 1,000 finds by the end of the year so need to clock up a few more finds this week to get there! We were aiming for many of the recently placed caches around the inner south east (along with some older ones!) and all up we found 15 tonight. This was find number 12.
This one was an easy find due to there being no muggles out and about tonight. Thanks for the cache, Fighting Fury!

Find #101 for The Double-A's. We like this area as it's close to where we found our first ever cache and also where we stayed when we first arrived in Melbourne. Nice hidey place - TFTC
Found at 3:53 PM GAFF3. We were not looking very well today and once again missed it on the first pass
A great way to keep these graffiti artists occupied - looks like they practice on the nearby green box though .
Thanks Fighting Fury.

Found this one tonight. I think the coordinates may be a bit out for the actual cache and instead point to the artwork. Used clue and found the cache though. It is easy when you are looking in the right place! Signed log - there was some moisture/condensation on the lid of the cache which I dried off today but there didn't appear to be any moisture in the cache though log may be a bit damp (it may benefit from a zip lock bag in here).
Thanks for the cache Fighting Fury.
