I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, mattmason1, requesting additional time, and it appears abandoned.
Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache.

Can we have an owner check on this, please? If the situation is not addressed when I next check, in 30 days, the cache will be archived.
Since it's very close to your registered location, this should be very easy to check.

I will be down in the next week to perform maintenance on ths cache - a busy year at home and work has made it difficult to get time to visit when the park is not filled with muggles.
I called in here last week and found the tree has been heavily pruned - I will reinstate this in the next couple of weeks. Stay tuned
Foiled again. At least three trees that it could be in given that the co-ords are in the middle and people report the cache being about 10m out. Inspected them all fairly closely but with the neighbour keeping tabs on me, I felt a bit uncomfortable and had to give it away. Not found (or checked?) since October and the co-ords have not been updated, so there's no point in coming back as it stands. If it's here it must be a good hide!
No luck here again tonight... Visited far too many times here... can you check coords?
I’ll take the pooch and a cup of coffee down to the park in the morning and recheck the coordinates and replace the log.
Found it while out with ISeeYouPee2. Great challenge. The log was a bit moist, so dried it best I can. Needs a new ziplock and a bit of sunshine.

Couldn't find this one. Seems like some more accurate co-ords would be helpful judging from the previous logs.
Third time lucky!
Or more accurately third time with a clue from the cache owner. In my defence though ...the coordinates I was getting put me a fair distance away from the cache.
Thanks for the hint and thanks for the cache!

Nope. Tried again to find this one Thought about the clues in the last maintenance note. The hint. Even how it would be wheelchair accessible...but couldn’t come up with a find for this one. I can’t even see it in plain sight Will have to try another time.
I was in the park on the weekend and I can assure everyone that it’s still there, in plain sight, just waiting to be picked. Rather than looking inward, my suggestion is that future cache-chasers need to ‘branch out’...
Agree with the last two explorers. Think its been taken due to a park clean up. Bugger!
No luck here today, all the trees around this area have been pruned, a chainsaw may have been involved. Tfth
We were in the park for a neighbourly get-together and I checked the cache and it is still there, in plain view.
Cache had been taken. Searched high and low for it myself and couldn’t find it. Please be mindful to position the cache in such a way to disguise it when putting it back.
Found in the last place I looked, which was definitely not the first... or second... or third. Took a photo for log purposes as unable to sign like last finder.
On the final hunt for the elusive hidden creatures. 18 to go to World Turtle. TFTF.

Had two kookaburras watching us retrieve the log. Log is soaked and can’t be signed. Tftc The-Shredder
Had The Day Off Today, So Decided To Hit Up a Bit Of Caching, Weather Stayed fine Which Is Always A Bonus. Tftc had to widen my search.
GZ was jumping around but I had a pretty good look around the area as best I could Will have to come back another time.
Sent Mr OOH YEH out early in the morning to grab a few caches whilst I waited at the hospital for the daughter to have her baby. Caches were all found with a few that took a bit of searching TFTC mattmason1
Found the co-ords to be out by about 10 metres at this cache

After catching up with Neva2old and Yeatesy89 for a play and coffee in Kings Park and off course a few more smilies, we continued on our separate ways as we had a milestone we wanted to hit, and yep we did it a nice easy find here TFTC
2nd find of the day for us on a little walk with junior. Didn't take too long to find. Junior was hoping he would get to utilise his tree climbing skills to find this one....but not necessary. Tftc.
It had been muggled again. I found the lid open and the logbook more than a metre off. Closed it back up and covered with the camo. Tftc.
Decided to go out for a few hours of caching this morning.
Today wasn't my best day up this way as I ended up with only 7 finds and 4 DNFS.
Had a DNF here before and its a DNF here again. I'm only short so maybe I cant reach high enough to search for the cache TFTH mattmason1

Headed out with Skippy 46 for a morning of caching. Maybe the CO could check this one as we searched for a while and found nothing TFTH mattmason1
No luck for us today. Even with two pairs of eyes we could not find it. This is a lo ely little park though.
woohoo finally managed to get this one before it was muggled again. The cache was out in the open so I tucked it away after reading the CO's last log. thanks for replacing mattmason1. tftc
Yep, someone took the cache, but I have now replaced it. This is the second time it has been swiped, so I’ve taken the liberty of lowering my standards and hiding it a little lower down. Happy hunting!
After a nasty experience last time, it was a straight forward grab today. TFTC (and the sticker!) mattmason1.
Came and checked on this today - it's been swiped! There will be a new GC later today
Arrived at what I thought might be GZ and started searching the forks of the tree. Put my fingertips on something and with heart stopping intuition was afraid of what I'd discovered. A quick sniff and suddenly my arm wasn't long enough to keep it away from me. Beat a hasty retreat to clean up.
We didn't find your cache today although we spent around 5 minutes looking for this, But the rain got heavier so we gave up
GPS jumping everywhere
I made a new year resolution to follow my gps more often, today it took me to every tree in the park, then finally to the spot I thought it was in from the start

A nice quick find. The log is full and needs replacing.
TFTC mattmason1 this is find # 1741 for us

Thank you! It didn't take too long to spot this one, and I was able to retrieve and sign without difficulty.
Found it. Not a terrain 1 but fun all the same. Thank you. No pen so took a photo.
Not really a 1 terrain where it is. The log is now completely full and needs replacing. Nice cache all the same and we were pleased to find it quickly. TFTC.
TFTH a quick find. Great day for a walk around the parks in the area. Nice breeze and not too hot
GC in healthy condition. It is covered with loose pine needles, so should be very easy to find. Can you please ensure that it is replaced with the same type of camouflage, so that it isn't a wasted journey for other caching zoids... Thanks!
Had a good dig around the obvious spots but no cache. Has it been muggled? Was it washed away in recent storms? Did I just not look hard enough?
With our camping plans shattered because of the wet weather the jinta crew decided to venture to this area and collect some smilies . We enjoyed exploring new suburbs and we found this cache on our travels. No problems here adding our name to the book and we were soon on our way. TFTC .

I miraculously work up at dawn so I knew I had a few hours before the rest of the family woke up, so I decided to get out for a bike ride that I had been wanting to do for ages, which took me through Dianella and Morley. A few places to check in the vicinity, but still, a fairly straightforward find. Got accosted by a dog that in the park that was let off the leash by a lady that said it was my fault because I was using my phone. Anyhow, I'm sure I have been to this park before, perhaps to find a cache that was once hidden here years ago. TFTC mattmason1
In the area to buy something from a Gumtree seller, so had to find a cache or two on the way. This was a nice quick find.
Thanks for the cache mattmason1.
