Logs
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.

This is definitely no longer here, I have searched all over this tree, including the obvious spot
GPS on my phone went crazy. Still a quite quick grab...
Best smelling catch so far. Thanks for the 'odor'

An easy find that is not quite as described. It is a shame about the long list of trackables that are not in the cache. The cache would have perfect for the quite large TB I had brought with me from NZ but I didn’t like to risk leaving it here. TFTC
McBagi's adventure log: #105-K. Nice easy find to cap off the day. Trackable in hand TFTC.
Absolutely glorious day to be out and about. Went on a loop from Flinders Stn around the botanical gardens with the Bloke and the Besty, and picked up a few caches. This is a really great tree!
Not sure the cache is in the place it ought to be but I replaced it where found. Maybe the owner can check some time. A lovely afternoon for some geocaching and not too many muggles apart from an interested canine
Mr 5 was very happy to find this container straight away.
A nice find on our way back to the car at the end of an afternoon wandering around.
TFTC!

Honestly thought it would be where it wasn't (you'll see what I mean when you find it)
Traveled to Melbourne to attend the IJCAI conference. A perfect opportunity to find some caches in the other corner of the world.
Really easy to find specially after reading other logs. There was no TB so we decided to leave one, headed to Adelaide.

Pfff it wasn't so obvious and indeed we need lighting and small device. Mmm the tree smells really nice

We found it. Easily but my muggle friend took too long to grab it until he came down to my level (in my wheelchair) to figure out there was another way to get it lol.
Nice spot to hide it and appreciate the educational aspect of this cache. Dropped by to find this after a while padding around the Shrine of Remembrance. Took trackable HQVTWD back to China with me...
After searching the wrong tree we finally found it in a much more obvious place. No travel bugs in as shown. bit disappointed as we are heading back to UK and want to take one with us. Tftc
Our GPS was pointing slightly too close to the path. So for anyone struggling as we did - this cache does not require climbing
Don't know why this didn't log so here it is again.
Easy find. Took TBs

Found while on a walk around the CBD and botanical gardens. Made a quick find and covered up the caches current hiding place so it was a bit more hidden. Thanks for the hide.
Definitely think the cache is a bit broken and the hanging bit has come off but its new hiding place is okay if you cover it properly. Tftc!
This is the first big cache that we have ever found and full of goodies! Didn't take any trackables but will remember this one for a long time!
Spending the long Weekend in Melbourne and thought we would get a few caches ticked off the list. This was are Second cache of the day. We found the Pepper Corn tree pretty quickly but the cache took a bit longer. We replaced the cache with some extra Camo and went on to the next
Thanks for the cache

Lots of TB but cannot make sense of them at the moment. The ascender seems tone missing. TFTC
Found this one in the dark. Wasn't sure which tree it was but used my nose TFTC
Exploring some parts of Melbourne we haven't visited before.
Took a bit of manipulation to retrieve. If it's meant to be attached, it wasn't when we found it. A great place to pick up some travel bugs.

Had to climb the fence to get out of the gardens near this one. Those spikes are sharp! Dropped off a bunch of TBs
the attachment device it broken so it will take me a bit to fix but in the meantime please just place container slightly in the bottom ground hole out of sight. i have added some swaps and a new log
Did you know, you can take shelter out of the rain under a peppercorn and still get wet? Well yes you can! And isn't caching with a phone wonderful. All the tools required to look into holes and find stuff!

Way easy. Not hidden very well last find. Have covered over a bit better than we found it
Easy enough to find. One trackable inside but I couldn't trace it in the app. TFTC #129
Not sure if the attachment device was still in place but a quick find nevertheless. Dropped TB and TFTC skakids.
The retrieval device for this container is broken and needs repairs to replace it in what should be it's correct location.
Spotted the container as we were approaching GZ. As others have mentioned, the "retrieval device" is broken. We replaced the cache where we had found it and tried to disguise it somewhat. Perhaps the CO could have a look and make some repairs.
Walking past on the way to dinner for the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival. Lovely tree with the new batch of peppercorns clearly forming in the foliage. Easy find, but the retrieval device is present but no longer attached and the container is visible from the right angle. Also the log is damp but can still sign ok. Signed and returned. Cheers!
Spent a lovely afternoon in the Botanical Gardens and finally went in search for some caches. Something here is not the way it is supposed to be, but at least the container is out of sight.
Thanks a lot for the hide, skakids!
