We have been here quite a few times for caches over the years. We searched all over the place, trees, rocks, shrubs, posts, gates, under lids - nothing could be found. For a difficulty of 1.5 - it's a tough one

I was on the way to Healesville and stopped for a lunch break. Had a bit of a look around then noticed something when I took a step back.
Thanks for the cache

Found this cache when it was in its original location awhile back. Expected it to be in same/similar spot so that threw us to start with. But, found. Clever spot. Thanks for the cache!
TFTC. Do not understand the name because cache not found based on name. A good hiding spot thou
Enroute to Rochford Winery for a Segway tour and lunch. It was a fine day and the kids were being taken care of, so we took the scenic route and blew out the cobwebs in the geo-Corvette.
The compass needle took us to the trees on one side of the driveway, then to the other side. I was trying to figure out how the cache name fitted with the trees that I was looking around. Finally I read a previous log that gave a hint that made for a very quick find. I had been making it harder than I needed to! Thanks for placing this cache

Easy peasy . I stopped because of description wanted to see the water way . Had a nice stroll so thanks for the find ☺ On way back to Melbourne after a day in Marysville.
GeoBoyfriend found the name is misleading thankfully my partner in caching is more open minded then I am
I was passing by after a busy day of rally preparations and dropped in to hunt this one. I had found the earlier one that was in this nice little park so knew where to pull off. Parked right near GZ then followed the GPSr to a likely area but couldn't find anything. Looked a bit wider and saw a likely hiding spot and found the well placed cache. Thanks to Wal-len for this one (and sorry for the late log)
Geo-dad dragged the geo-family out to Healesville, and we found some caches along the way. This was first on our list, but dad and boy couldn't agree on the gps coordinates. Geo-mum grabbed the controls, hunted around and located the well-hidden cache. Well dode on mum's first nano, TFTC
took longer than it should but got there in the end. the weird thing was we saw a wild deer rush through the scrub very close to GZ. amazing. great place to pull in and stretch the legs. good one.
park deserted today, gps had us going in circles so decided to just do the trusted thing, look in all likely places. soon had the cache in hand and log signed. tftc
Oppzs..This is one we found a long time ago but for some reason have slipped logging it......discovered our error when planning our next caching adventure.
Heading into Healsville today we made a quick stop to get this cache.
Wet cold and rainy this park was very much deserted,
Thanks Wal-Len [:x]

A nice easy drive by and found in the only place it could be - methinks!! Thanks to Wal-len for thehunt.
Just passing thru and a lovely place to stretch my legs TFTC Very quiet here today.
I remember doing the original a while ago so I was a little surprised that this hide was a little further away than last time, my eldest geoson quickly spotted the likely location and we had no sooner signed the log and was returning it when a muggle pulled up but were quick enough to have had hidden before he and his dog walked by. Thanks Wal-len for the cache and for giving us another chance to come by and enjoy this great little park.
Found it easily as the park was deserted. Usually lots of people here whenever we have gone past.
Grabbed this one while out this way for work. I have been out this way a number of times but always in the truck i have been reluctant to pull in here. Today i was in the ute and arrived here, pleased to find the carpark empty; the cache was found quickly although not where i first thought it would be TFTC
Took me a while! I was looking in all the wrong places until I realised it was a nano, then it was clear enough roughly where it was
Finally found it thanks to my mothers day present a new gps. Not where I expected no wonder I had trouble last time looking for it.
It's been awhile since we've done a cache, late night drive. Glad we stuck to it. Thanks for the cache.
Took a while to find this one as we were focusing on the wrong area. A pretty little park, thanks for the cache.
Just been to two more wineries so the bill is mounting. A little hinting for this as there was something close by that threw me.
Found as 3 of 4 on way home from camping for the weekend at Badgers Creek. Parked nearby, let kids loose at GZ and found quite quickly. Thanks for the placement.
After a visit to Healseville Sanctuary I stopped by to grab a few local caches.
Walked towards GZ and spotted some familiar cache camo which made for a quick find. Signed and replaced as found
Thanks for the cache Wal-Len

Third find for the day. Went out for a drive to visit family on the way we decided to do a few geocaches and get lost in an awesome hedge maze. The weather has been amazing,and the locals have been saying this has been the only good weather this summer.
Phone GPS had me on a wild goose chase to start off with.... took me all the way over to the chairs.the big tree, down to the river and god knows where else. Gave up on following the blue dot and had a lock at the imagery on google maps and located where I was supposed to be quickly. Trek'd back to where I should of started looking and began the search. This one took me a lot longer to find than it should have.... had my muggle eyes on and disregarded the obvious.
TFTC.
Cache in good order

I expected to find this cache in a similar position to v.1 which proved fruitless. So I started looking in other locations and found it. Thanks Wal-len
Well hidden, in a place that would seem obvious, but easy to start looking in other places that would also seem obvious.... Tftc!
Omg!! FOUND it. Wasn't leaving until I did. Not easy to spot. Watch for anomalies. Sharp eyes will find it. Well done to the geocacher who planted it!!
This one tricked us a bit. I had long gave up when Mr Dragon found it!! Thanks
Im sure Im in the right area but just cant find it oh well there is another day to try again.
Found on the way back home from eating the most amazing steak sandwich at Anvil Angus.
GPSr had me doing the lost boys dance here.
Round and round in circles until I was so dizzy I nearly fell down.
Christine spotted it in a place I had already checked...

Stopped off at this Nice park on our way to dinner in Healesville, had the GeoHawk family looking when I spotted something out of the corner if my eye and the cache was found! TFTC!!
Great spot! I drive past everyday on my way to work and never stopped here before! TFTC!
{ftf} Not an easy one for me. Gps everywhere 2day. Great recreation area and clever hide. TFTC.
Found it! Got notification and message from K within seconds of each other. This new cache is only a slight detour on my way home decision made, gotta go for it, but we are both stuck at work....arhhhh. Waiting for knock of time seemed to take forever. Finally 5 o'clock and I'm on my way know the area so straight to the GZ to find another likely suspect wandering around with a device in her hands. Quick introductions and we joined forces to hunt down what still promised to be an FTF. My fellow cacher's sharp eyes soon spot something out of place and we've got it, alas we have been beaten for the FTF but a joint 2TF is ok. Thanks OBi (sorry if i spelt that wrong) for your help....TFTC
