Unfortunately I cannot see any information that indicates that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement. Therefore as advised previously, the cache is being de-listed (Archived) to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

The [**Geocache Maintenance guideline**](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance) explains what needs to happen with a Disable cache.

Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained in the Help Center article [**here**](http://support.groundspeak.com//index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70).

If you wish to contact me please send an email via my profile - [**Bunjil**,](https://coord.info/PR9GZ0K) and quote the cache name and GC number.

This one is definitely missing.
After working out GZ and not finding anything I checked with a couple of previous finders.
My coordinates were spot on but sadly there is no cache here.
Thanks anyhow skakids.

on hold till i can check

I checked every level but could not find this one

Look where I thought it was but no find

Better luck next time

Nice stroll in the area caching today tftc.

A nice straightforward multi and a short stroll to the cache. I had to take a second look before I found the cache as it wasn't exactly where I thought it would be (but close enough!) TFTC

Grabbed a pic of the relevant info on the way to the tram, then spent lunch time doing the sums on a doily which I left at the diner - wonder what they would've made of that info haha. After visiting the market and some other stores, we swung by to pick the final of this up. Great little spot for a great sized and well-hidden cache. I love simple multis like this - TFTC and the fun skakids

Disappointed I didn't bring any trinkets or anything with me - pretty big for a city cache!! TFTC

Nice easy Quest

I collected the clues with a quick camera shot on my way past to lunch and sorted out the answers on my napkin. This was a nice way to ignore the obnoxious, vacuous couple sitting next to our table whose conversation was heard by most of the restaurant. After they departed, we had a delightful lunch and detoured to gz on our way back to the car. After determining where abouts we should be to access the cache, the find was easy. TFTC skakids.

Woohoo big containers full of swappables are my fave kinds! Technically I haven't completely the quest yet But I'll get there a few at a time lol! TFTC

21:37
Found on an Autumn caching walk through the laneways and footpaths of Prahran and South Yarra.

Has it been that long since I first took up the Quest? It seems like only yesterday that I was wandering in the rain, but nearly four years have passed...

One last cache before jumping on a train...

After getting an acceptable set of coordinates from the informative plaque (misreading alphanumerics gave a a ridiculous position before I realised my mistake), I took the short walk...

Again, patience came into play as I had to wait for someone to retrieve their vehicle from nearby, so I spent the time verifying GZ with the hint. Aha... Definitely in the right place (and a chance to reflect on the recent passing of the late Mr. Ball).

Another bigger than expected container... skakids, you never cease to amaze.

Took stealth TB.

So ends another day of Questing. Thanks, skakids... I think that brings my catch up to 30, which means there's still at least another Quest day ahead.

Find #8270**

At a bit of a loss for something to do today, so messaged a friend and he was up for a mini cache run, so off we went for an afternoon of fun. The sun was shining, so why not? Most of the caches were found with no problems, with a couple having us scratching our heads.

We grabbed the info required for this one and pondered the path over a dumpling lunch. Once at GZ, the walls caused all sorts of havoc but after a bit of tooing and froing and awaiting a driving muggle, the cache was found.


**Thanks to skakids for the cache. TNLN. **

Out on an urban run today with ahomburg finally on the hunt for more caches in this great series. Nice container & hide. Some yummy dumplings nearby.

TFTC skakids

Find #1027

Out for a bike ride today on the quest around the area. Had a good streak of finds until I made it to the other side of Chapel St and then the time of day and muggle made me retire earlier than anticipated. thanks for all the effort in this series skakids!

I thought this was going to be a tough one given the starting coords. but GZ was a nice quiet spot and wow did I get a surprise from the size of this cache. good hide.

Hard find for beginners, but fun!

Forgot to log dropping off TB

Thanks for the educational adventure! This one was a little tricky to locate but glad to have persisted with 'The Addicted Cacher'!

Was stuck searching in the wrong place for a little, and was a little confused by the hint, but was found within a few minutes. TFTC

Great one ! Love easy multis !
No good to have them with 9 waypoints when I'm holiday !
I remember many years ago I played a sheep in the Musical of Footrot Flats in a small local theatre group ! So I knew the ram's name !
Thanks for this history of the area near my airbnb !

Did not find this one as there was a Muggle sitting on GZ! I remember gathering the clues on our last visit but seemed to have lost them. So we gather the clues gained and worked out GZ. Will have to come back another day to find the cache. TFTC

Found, but had no time to retrieve due to busy time of the day. Really BIG and black, TFTC!

Find #6 of 10. Out and about on a walking Quest with Kevin today.

Kevin's first multi, but I'm getting hungry!

I jotted down the answers to the questions, did the calculations, followed the GPS unit and was convinced I was in the wrong place. After reading the droll hint I realised I was at GZ, so I went over there and immediately found the capacious cache. Tftc.

** Smile # *3736* / Multi # *190* **

DAB, theTritonz and myself had a big day planned up and around the St. Kilda area. We set off from Geelong in the early hours of the morning before the sun had risen. Our main goal for the day was to complete the Quest series. It was another great, fun day out with awesome company [^] and some great caches found.
We came to this one to grab the details needed and also some lunch for the upcoming event later in the day. the info was soon sorted and we were on our way to the final. A quick find. Signed and replaced as found.

**Thanks for this multi cache, skakids** [^]
**Cache container and log good in good condition**
**Took Nothing, Left Signature**

With a big day planned for the St Kilda area with Na'wal and DAB, we set off from Geelong in the early hours of the morning while it was still dark heading for our main targets...the Quest series. It was a fun day zipping around the suburbs finding the various hides , enjoying a laugh or two as we went. Having 4 people in the car came in handy when driving around the narrow streets , 1 driving, 1 navigating and 2 in the back to jump out when a park wasn't available. Found the correct information board where we soon had our info and a new set of coords then trotted off for the find.
Thanks skakids for the multi.

Today I joined forces with the teams of The_Tritonz and Na'wal. We have had our eyes on this area for a while, which included the Quest series. A full day was enjoyed caching in this beautiful part of Melbourne. We found some very clever hides and enjoyed a lot of laughs. Thanks to all of the co's for your effort in placing these caches. TFTC skakids

Found this back in June but for some reason I lost my draft of the log when I changed phones. So I had to go back and pick up the cache again and look through the logs to see when i found it!

Nice spot for a cache although the return was tricky as it was surprisingly busy.

Thanks heaps for the series! Now I only have Quest 99 and Quest Ultimate to go...

Cheers!

First Multi cache! Took one eyeball, left one penny. On to the next. TFTC.

It took me three visits to the site (not the first waypoint, which was relatively straightforward, short of avoiding the club-goers and streetcleaners and homeless people). But there amidst the urine smells from the nearby corner was the cache. Thanks to a couple of recent finders for the boosts. Took a trackable moose and left a seashell. Man, I've gotta get more thorough at this. I swear I had checked there the first two times...

#763 3:29pm TFTC... on a slow day at work I went and got all the required info, and then after saturday brunch made a quick find and finally dropped off The Moose that I have had for WAY TOO LONG... I hope he travels on quickly. Also picked up geocoin

Great information on the history of this area, we had fun with this one. It took some googling to make sense of the clue, but it was a very helpful one!

Tftc. Needed to research to get this clever find

Find #18 for my Multi-Month Challenge and Find #15 at 6.48pm for my 24 caches in 24 hours using (mainly) multis challenge.
What can I say? As usual, a high quality cache from skakids. I had reserved this for the end of a fairly long day because I knew that the final co-ords (which I had 'banked' for the challenges) would be spot on. Sure enough, they were and I learnt a little more about the Aboriginal history of the area in the process.
TNLNSL and visited a couple of personal TBs for the mileage.

The search took longer than it should have - I had overlooked the cache initially due to it's camouflage. Fortunately all was quiet! TFTC

Nice finish to my days quest caching. Only couple to complete I think before Ultimate. TNLN TFTC.

I have been meaning to do this quets multi for ages. Today I was in the area without a car to worry about so I gathered the data at WP1 and despite awful GPS coverage around here I came across the likely hiding spot courtesy of the clue.
Thnks skakids

TFTC!

=)

Quick find after working out final coords. left a hulk arm and an alien, took some googly eyes and a butterfly clip. TFTC from Team Scando.

Found it easily with exportswede. Took Googley eye, left hulk arm. TFTC.

Wow! Tftc

Tftc out on this mild night on the hunt for some more numbers with geo brother and of course the geo misses.

Tftc great hide found with lukie1987 and geopartners

Completed this multi on a day around Prahran. Thanks for the info and the hide. Everything aligned perfectly to reveal this cache in line with the hint.

A quick multi to get the final co-ords, but on a busy Saturday afternoon in Prahran, waiting for a break between all the folk coming and going it took a few minutes to retrieve this one (it had already been stealthily spotted with the mirror on a stick). Putting it back was another waiting game.

[7057]

Great geocaching day today in Melbourne : 47 finds, 20 km walking and some very nice places seen. I spend the whole morning in South Yarra for the Quest serie, and then move to Melbourne city centrum in the afternoon.


Thanks for the cache !

We were out with the sole intention of picking up some of the older caches that we just have not got to and also collect a few more multi's.
We thought Sunday may be nice and quiet but how wrong we were. Not that it matters when you are just collecting information.
At GZ it was a bit quieter and we just waited until the coast was clear and luckily the cache was an easy find and sign.
Thanks Skakids for the cache and info.

2nd DNF of the day. Some of those clipboard toting muggles, ready to spring you and try and chat to you about their charity of the day, were lingering around the first WP, so I decided not to risk it!

Found with Julius Pompei and Gilbo

Easy find, nice place, nice cache, nice little spot to hide a cache

Found with AngusGEO and Big Chode Licker

Nice quick fond

Easy multi and my first in the month of June. Enjoyed the mini history lesson. TFTC

Nice little multi to go after on a rainy Sunday afternoon with eldest geoson. GZ seemed to be a pretty busy place with muggle cars and hipsters hanging around... The retrieval was Ok but it took a fait bit of waiting and trying to appear inconspicuous to replace the cache. Still, good to find a cache this size in this area... TFTC!

Dropped a travel bug from french! Let it travels!

Found it!! Our first multi cache with Rayrefolies! Also dropped two travel bugs! Let it travel around the world! Yeaay!!!!

After finding a suitable place to park the ninja car, we took the urban stroll to the posted co-ords where there happened to be a LEGO convention/fair going on, while we collected the required info, we were careful where we stood......those little bricks hurt like hell when you step on them!
So in between the coming and going of people with yellow heads and no moveable knee and elbow joints, we managed to come up with the co-ords for GZ. I must say that there was quite a bit of speculation going on as to where GZ would be and we all were a lot wrong!
So off we went to a place we didn't expect and made the nice find without looking too dodgy.

Thanks for the nice multi skakids, and the series.

Cheers

We were surprised where the final was to this cache, but we found it and signed it TFTC

Ah yes dates and years, my favourite kind of multi. Upon arriving at the computed coordinates my in brain cache cache started searching the register. Having found myself confronted by similar circumstances (actually iirc another quest as an example) I went for the obvious and wrong conclusion. Coming back down to earth after my flight of fancy I realised the error of my ways as well as the likely location. The only problem with that being the muggle right next to cache locale. So I gave up and went elsewhere for an hour or so.

On return not only did I find Mr Cellphone having a nice long convo at GZ, but another two muggles having a nice snooze (quite separately, but still within eyeshot of the cache). Eventually Mr Cellphone moved on and the nearest sleepyhead reconfigured their bed for a more comfortable snooze, so I was finally able to dash in and make the find. Managed to put my hand on the container first go, and without waking sleepyhead I quickly managed to retrieve and sign the cache. Phew.

It took a while but I made it. Thanks to skakids for quite a Quest for this one.

It's become a bit of a ritual for me, whenever I have a little time to spare, to get off the train at South Yarra and wend my way south to either Prahran or Windsor station (depending on available time) whilst looking for a few Quest caches along the way.

This was my third and final Quest find for the day, and made for a pretty speedy multi. Following quick collection of clues at the first waypoint I calculated the coords for the final location and made my way there.

Things were a little bit scuzzy at GZ, but I managed to make contact with the container by feel, then had to wait for a parking inspector muggle to move off before making the retrieve.

Good to find such a generously sized urban container; was only sorry not to have any swag on me at the time to put in there.

Signed the log, thanks for another rewarding Quest, skakids, and for pointing me at some interesting local area Indigenous history.

Easy find on a busy Friday afternoon on my way home. A cache a day keeps ... Thanx.

Off on an RDO today doing a few errands around town and grabbing a couple of caches along the way.
Interesting story in an unexpected location but then that's history. Decoded clues and moved on to GZ for a quick find. Nice.
Thanks for placing this cache skakids

It was a super hot day in the sun so we didn't want to spend too long caching, but were on a mission to complete another 2014 award cache. We found this easy multi after a look through the nearby bustling Prahran market. The cache was found a short walk away and underneath an expensive looking empty bottle of rum. The local alcoholics must be doing okay here but I'd love to meet one who actually puts their empties in a recycling bin - although I think I'd die of shock. TFTC

Attempted on our Sunday caching adventure around the Chapel Street precinct. The clue made sense and we found a spot that looked suitable for a cache hide but it was filled with crushed Coke cans.

A nice, easy but interesting multi. Thanks for the history, really interesting.

Pretty straightforward multi but my gps got me temporary uncertain of my position and I didn't know the name of the ram . TFTH .

Dnf, but i need to check my maths, before i leave, not when i get home.. we will b3 back

After breakfast nearby this was our first cache for the day. A very informative multi and a quick find at GZ using the hint. Thanks skakids, we are loving your hides. Caching today with Motndarg.

Enjoyed the information on this board , also some of the interesting "locals" and their dogs! Got the required info , then found GZ. Liked this one as it was not too complicated. TFTC

#2952 - 16:05; In Melbourne for a few days after a trip home to Tassie and picking up a few more caches while I'm in town. I seem to remember mentioning my love of shopping in earlier logs and today reminded me why. The geogals wanted to come to Bridge Road, Swan and Chapel Streets to check out the retailers, so I came along to make sure they arrived safely and then headed off on a much longer walk than I had bargained for. This was the last of fifteen, comprising 14 finds and a single DNF. I had done an arc through Richmond and Burnley on my way to meet up with the geogals in South Yarra. I had made the rendezvous and headed off to grab a few more caches as they continued to shop. Nice to get a chance to pick up a couple more in this series to build on the start I made last time through this area. After the skakids disappointment of my first (and only) DNF for the day, it was nice to be able to put this one to bed to conclude a productive afternoon. Recognised the name referred to in the hint once I saw it and after waiting out a couple of muggles found a nice sized cache container. TFTC and the series to date skakids

Been a while since I have come over and done some Quest caches. I see they have been building up in my absence. So I got the deadly treadly out and headed off.
I think I read nearly all the plaques here - not a good start! I then found the right one next to where I put my bike!
Anyway, the information was quickly gleamed, and I was off out of this busy street.
I looked at the clue as the bushes here looked a little worst for ware. I couldn't remember the name but then I saw the sign - that's right!
A good sized urban cache.
Thanks, Robmc.

TNLN TFTC!

A really enjoyable multi, that was not too difficult but somehow hid a nicely sized container in the most urban of places. I left a TB. Thanks skakids!

Find number #2 post reptile society meeting.
I used to live right near here, before I cached so it's awesome to return and see everything in a different way.
I sat down at WP1 with my little notepad and pen to work out this nice easy little multi.
As I was doing numbers a muggle of the drunk girl variety walked/staggered past and asked me if I wanted to be her pen pal. I thought it was quite hilarious.
Then I made my way to GZ. Read hint. Oh! Ohhh.... More drunk ladies! A group of them this time, nearby, chatting away, walking back and forth. Ugh. Stealth mode activated. Wait game- on.
Finally, they departed and I was free to search. Bingo didn't take long.
Felt a little accomplished walking back to the car =D
Appreciate you making me stop here to get a smiley.
It brought me back 'home' before having to return to the now home of Geelong.
Took & left- Nothing. Signed log.
Cheers & T.F.T.C =]
Safe travels and hoppy caching!

This was the second last cache that I needed to find to finish off the Quest series. Only #33 left to find but I needed to leave it for another day as I had some shopping to do before heading home for dinner.

I found the required numbers at WP1, calculated the final cache co-ordinates, entered them into my GPSr and headed off to look for the cache. When I arrived at GZ I had a pretty good idea where I needed to look having found a few caches in similar locations. After a very brief search I found the nice size container - usually caches in locations like this are magnetic mint containers so the size of this container was a pleasant surprise. [^] I signed the log at 4:10 pm, took a pink cat and left a heart shaped eraser.

Thanks skakids for a very informative multi and a great cache location. I enjoyed learning about Prahran's Aboriginal heritage.

We continued on our walk through courtesy of skakids' Quest series. This cache was split into three parts. Part 1 was WP1 where we collected the information. Such a great building. We then adjourned for sushi at the local establishment. Part 2 had us searching the GZ but for some reason I thought I was looking for a micro. After we thought we had spent long enough there we headed off to another cache. Part 3 had us walking back to the car when we had another look and noticed my mistake of the cache size. This changed the search parameters and we soon had a rather large tin in hand. SL. TFTC.

Good hide. Took a lovely stone and left a coin. TFTC

Nice hide. TFTC

The information was gathered quickly, and with the promise of coffee on the way back I agreed for quiet1_au, GJMMelb and me to head to GZ first. And who would we run into at GZ? Moosetash and Happypants Good to catch up and thanks for the TB. We had a cup of coffee on the way back as planned so all good. TFTC

Found with Lochb and Quiet1_au on a fine Sunday afternoon out caching in this area. The info was quickly and after some basic maths we had hte co-ords for Gz. We arrived to find the cache in the hands of Happypants and Moosetash. Thanks skakids
GJMMelb

We found a park along the every busy Chapel St, and headed over to find the necessary info. It was a quick calculation of the numbers and we headed down to GZ. The clue gave us some reminiscing time and when we got to GZ we made the find quickly to the blaring cacophony of a nearby car's alarm. We were just stuffing the TB back in the cache, when some other cachers walked up, so we had a mini event! Great to meet some others in the field, and after a quick chat we headed our separate ways. Thanks for another hide, and a good little multi to help us learn more of this area we are virtually ignorant of.

We had been cleaning up a few caches in the area and headed over to solve this one, actually tash solved it out as I had to take my young geoson to find a toilet and only participated in spirit, we wandered over to the gz and after looking in a few likely locations Moose put his hand on it and we were just finishing signing the log and were wondering how to put an oversized TB back in the cache container when were greeted by some fellow intrepid cachers who had the same idea of caching in the area. Great to have a quick chat and exchanged pleasantries and we were back on our way. Thanks skakids for the cache and for showing us a little bit of the local history.

Having had the parking gods smile on us, we (lochb, G' of GJMMelb and I) had only a very short walk to GZ to gather the information, then we were off to GZ where the cache was quickly and easily found in the hands of Moosetash and happypants and the rest of their group After a chat and checking out the cache hide we parted ways and had a coffee and cake TFTC

Enjoyed this one immensely. Had to get out the pad and paper to work out the coordinates and try to look very subtle about it as there were lots of skating muggles about. Again with geopartner MariaP71

Loving the multi cache

I found the general location of this a couple of weeks ago but the area was too busy to search. Headed back at 10:30pm and the coast was clear. Thanks for the history!

During my work and travel year in Australia I'm trying to solve my 365 days of caching challenge. Having a moving home zone should make this definitely way easier

I visited this area lots of times and every time I only searched for a few caches, always having the challenge in mind. Most times I started the hunt late in the eventing, so I could get at least two boxes around midnight.

After I found the right sign it was no trouble to collect all the answers and the box couldn't hide for long.

TFTC and greetings from Germany

Suscoe's 7th find for today as we were wandering about looking for little containers.
A quick read and we had the info required.
Then coffee at a nearby provider and the number crunching was done to the delicious cuppa.
A short walk, a quiet spot and a find.
Log signed and on our way.
Thanks to the skakids for an interesting glimpse of local history.

Nice quick little puzzle cache on a quiet morning, thanks

I headed out early on a beautiful sunny grand final morning to do some more of the quest series,

Yeh you never know in what direction a mutli will take you, this one took me straight back to where I parked the car,

A few homeless men around WP1 made me a little uncomfortable,

thanks skakids [:x]

Love these short multi's that show the great history of Melb. We spent some time checking out the shops and eateries whilst there. The bin area near GZ has become a toilet for some....not so nice. Good sized cache hide with plenty of swaps. Took nothing Left nothing. Thank you for the hide.

This entry was edited by RainbowWarriorz on Thursday, 18 September 2014 at 12:24:32 UTC.

Next on this morning's sojourn brought me to this one. With the interesting info at WP1 gleaned and a GZ calculated, it was off there for the search. Once there, things didn't look too enticing even though Upoj was telling me that I wasn't quite where I should be anyway so a squiz at the hint refocussed my attention and I had the stash in hand not long after at 06:40.

And now to celebrate with a KKD from 7/11.

TNLNSL. Thanks skakids.

Great find once again. Out with the looselipslacey!

Returned and signed the log. Thanks skakids

Really enjoying this series. Not an area that I know, but learning my way round the one way streets with so many caches. Quest Chapel is a very informative cache, and a lovely multi. Logged with COs permission. Thanks skakids

Another great and fun cache by skakids.

We live nearby so decided to enjoy a
warming Sunday and try this easy and fun
multi.

We got the clues right away and found the
GZ but we were actually thrown off
by the clue at first. But my wonderful
Geocaching daughter made the find the old
fashioned way. Then we did some research
on cartoons and it all made
sense . TFTH - great one indeed.

-- Ketchum3.

We found this cache today at 3:00pm as number 2 of 6 on our Tour de Prahran. We spent well over 5 minutes at WP1 before realising that this was not a traditional. Always hate it when we make this assumption before realising. Once at the real GZ, we had to outwait a couple in their car nearby before being able to retreive. Thanks from D & HA B-A.

A really great hide for our first multi! Not long, but gave us an idea of how they work. Had to wait for some muggles on their delivery mopeds before we could retrieve the cache. TFTC!

Found 19:25, after a brief search. A nice easy multi

TNLN, thanks skakids.
