What a stunning area!
And in our own backyard!!!

Thank you for placing the cache in this location, it truly is beautiful - lovely walk, beautiful bird calls and nice and secluded, so you're not running into people constantly.

Found GZ easy enough, locating the cache should have been just as easy, however it helps if you look properly

Signed and replaced.
Thanks again!

Nice walk in a Reserve I didn't even know existed. Out with SerchingForMacca and a quick look around soon had us with ut in hand. The Bellbirds sound amazing. TFTF

Doing a afternoon of caching with smithies outback gear.with amazing bell birds in the trees and just beautiful surroundings of kangaroos and other wildlife. Thabk you for this cache.

Nice easy find though I took the short way in over the fence.

Found it good hiding place

Great little walk. Use the gate

Beautiful little hide away. Really makes you explore areas you usually wouldn't!

TFTC! Much easier to find if you use the gate rather than the fence. Need a pen!

We did an enjoyable series nearby a few years back and remember doing a brief and unsuccessful search for this cache. Not only were we searching in the wrong place but some dumped smelly rubbish put us off the search. This morning those memories were replaced with an enjoyable walk in the reserve listening to the bellbirds.
Thanks S38 for this nice sized cache.

Find 2620
Out with Geowife and this was on the list. Parked the car and commenced the search. Coords were good so wasn't long before the cache was discovered. Log signed and back safe again.
Thanks S_38

Was a little scared pulling this one out with the amount of cobwebs around haha thank you for placing this one, a very quiet peaceful spot

Cute find thanks for the cach ️

Great little spot. Love little caches in cute hiding spots

Hard to believe I have never been through here before.
It felt like a holiday seeing something new. Yup, lockdown is getting to me too.
Bell birds were chirping their songs loudly.
Thanks for your placement.

Found on a lovely walk surrounded by bell birs TFTC SLTN

Birds sounds make it so much better

Nice little track to explore. Thanks

I was scared to get it out of the tree and got bitten by a mossie thxxxx though xoxo gossip girl

Kinda shit ngl. Lots of bugs. No pen! Gl

On our little drive through this area after staying in Beaconsfield last night. Stopped for a couple of Horse caches, thinking they were drive by's, but how wrong can you get. As we were passing here we stopped for a quick find.

Thanks S_38 for the placement here.

Couldn't find it

A nice peaceful place. I accessed through the Northern gate. Coords were about 15m off on my GPS. Cache in good condition. Saw some kookaburras and a giant mushroom near GZ.

Lovely walk amongst the trees, easy find, saw some amazing giant mushrooms too. TNLNSL TFTC

I had been laid up for six weeks after Knee surgery, I spent most of that time solving puzzles, over 300 ended up in the solve pile, so I was so keen to get out and find some caches, Packenham was My area of choice for My first day out caching after surgery, it was a whole new ball game maneuvering about. The sun was shining and as I got out the car the bell birds were really singing.

Thanks S_38 for the cache.

After driving past this one many times, today was the day I finally stopped. TFTC

Found it with kangas11
Thanks S_38 for the cache

Caching day with crank1 after been to an event at Emerald train station. Nice weather today. Easy to find. Thanks S_38 for placing the cache.

Pulled up on the road thinking this would be a nice park and grab but there was a barbed wire fence in the way. I was tired and needed my second cache before midnight. Jumping the barbed wire could end badly but give it a go. A quick jump and the cache was found within the time frame....just. Thanks

Thanks S_38 for the cache.
Found at 11:54 pm on 7/1/19.

A nice little walk in the reserve with the reward of a cache at the end. A easy find of a decent size container.

**Thanks to S_38 for placing this cache.**

Went a bit too Far East into tiger snake country but ventured back to GZ. TFTC

My weekly day off, caching day, but not for a long while now, time to get back into it a bit. decided to head down this way to stretch my legs.
A nice quick find on my way back to the big smoke. I will return another day to grab some more caches (and clues).
**Thanks for placing this cache S_38**

Exploring the area, I pulled up to the north at the gate and wandered into this lovely little reserve. I would have thought that it was farmland, so was pleased for the chance to explore. It was a nice quick find of a good sized container.

Thanks to S_38 for placing this cache.

Just another Road I would not normally Drive on except for geocaching once I found the gate to enter it was an easy find thanks s 38

Find #4623

An early morning caching run near to a spot where I have cached before. Cached from just after 6.30 till about 8.15 and then I headed off to work. Concentrated on the Riding my Pony series and tried a few others nearby. This is lovely area to visit with the green grass and the rolling hills on a nice mild morning. Having found four of the pony series I was moving the car around to the other end of the series and passed this one along the way. At first I thought it was private land but after reading the cache page I hopped over the fence and soon had the good sized cache in hand. My fifth find of nine on a pleasant morning when I timed it right to avoid the showers that swept in a little later. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache S_38.

I was making my way around to the ANZAC series when this one came onthe GPS. Well, what could I do? A nice easy find thanks S_38.

I reckon that not many people would know about this reserve.
A nice hiding place for a cache too.
Thanks S_38 for bringing us here.
Chiefton!!!

Was looking around came across a esky bag wondered what was in it opened it up and found a rotting animal carcass how can anyone do such a thing

This was just up the road from the pony series so I thought, "Why not! There is always time for one more"

**Traditional Cache Find #2141**

Trackable shown in cache inventory not present.

The weather finally came good and I headed off to a CITO and then attempted some caches closer to home. I have had this puzzle solved since it was published but today was the first chance I'd had to attempt to find it. I should have read the cache page. I was tired and that is my excuse. I would have found it easier to get to GZ if I had. I took the short way in and quick found the cache.

**Thank-you to S_38 for placing this geocache**

Found it

After attending the 3am WWFM event in Officer and then spending a few hours at Lysterfield finding a night cache and now the day was just beginning so off I went in search of so more caches that I have not found, this was one of them.
As this one wasn't far along the road I decided to go have a look, I took the short way in and was able to make a quick find.

**Thanks to S_38 for placing this cache.**

Approached this one the hard way. Not sure of a better way in so the shortest distance was the best today. Easy find once at GZ but there was no TB to be found in the cache. Collected the clue and signed the log before replacing the cache as it was found. TCLNSL. TFTC. Kkams

Logged as NicNax2. Enjoyed the weekend with WeRAmused. MY GPS tells me we found this one but must have been tuckered out on the pony ride to remember. TFTC

Found as NicNax with MazzyMay. I don't remember it either but my GPS says we found it too. Senile old ducks is my excuse. TFTC

Once we found how to get to this one, it was a nice quick find. Lovely peaceful area. For all the times I have been up an down this road, I never knew this track/trail/reserve was here. Thanks for the cache and bringing us here.

12:53, May 27, 2018, # 703, out with OHC and Papi4506 today doing a few in this area. A quick find
. TFTC.

Quick find left TB others visited

Out for a nice afternoon with 1Toolman. Beautiful place, TFTC.

This was the first of just a few for the ‘morning’
Parked RIGHT NEAR IT !
What a douchebag, so we walked back the 100mtrs and wandered into a very quiet and peaceful reserve. The boys and I found it and replaced as we found it,
Nice are.

A nice quick drive by in our afternoon caching run. TFTC

Was in the area tonight dropping off a trailer to a friends and took the long way home. Took me three hours longer than usual, oops! But didn’t get into too much trouble. Some great little spots in the area, love exploring this part of the burbs, it’s just great. TFTC

Great place for a hide! I had no idea that this reserve was here. Pleasant place for a walk and being serenaded by the Bellbirds (Bell Miners).

Great find!

With a couple of days off due to wet weather i thought some caching was in order after i had taken care of business.
This was a quick grab as it was raining very heavy, so i didn't do the loop. Lovely walking through the stand of big Silver Wattles. Another little reserve i wouldn't know about if not for caching.
Thanks for bringing here S38.
Cheers, BWBandit

Day off so I headed to Fountain Gate for some shopping, I decided to take the long way and get some caches on the way.
I found the North gate and parked on the road. Made my way to GZ and made a quick find there.
Cache in good condition. No Trackables present.

Thanks S-38

Since moving from New Zealand I have been enjoying the area, exploring and finding caches. I usually cache on my own but sometimes I will collect my nephew stinky bob and my brother stinky tom who both enjoy this hobby.
A big thanks goes out to all the cachers and cache owners without whom this lifestyle would not be possible.
The caches I’ve found in Australia so far have for the most part all been in great condition. Keep up the good work.

Today we explored Packenham Upper and surrounds using Geocaching as a guide and picking up a few caches on the way. An easy find at GZ.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Out with Yorsys today collecting a few caches around here. Arrived at the designated parking spot just vacated by some parks people. After a quick chat we headed off for a nice walk in the bush to gz. A quick sign and then we headed back to the car to warm up again.

Nice cold walk the Swaggies at 16 June 2017 2:31 pm. Find 1525

Ok so don't park at the nearest spot ad there is a barbed wire fence and a dead smelly deer there. Read the cache page and park there. Tftc

S_38 took me out to show me where his cache was hidden today so signing off on this one

Found this one on my way home from an event in Officer. Never been along this road before, the corrugations were baaad. Thanks

Always hate putting my hands into hides like these and just as I started to a smallish branch dropped from the tree onto my shoulder - scared the hell out of me.
Still thanks for the cache S_38 and bringing me here

Nice one !!

Well we went the wrong way about that one, but eventually found it. Awesome container. Picked up TB to take on our travels. TFTC

TFTC.

Great spot for it. Find the gate and climb over. Not too far after that

Reserved Toomuc was transferred from We_Like_Candy to user S_38

Found it, you do need to get over the fence.

An offer of a day out of the house to do some caching - thanks jimbo_80! How can I refuse?
Soon joined by Mark&Kelly, we zig-zagged all over the place looking for drive-bys and short walks.
Once we worked out the best entry point, we made our way to the well-hidden cache.
Congrats on your first hide, guys!
Thanks for showing us this lovely area

We weren't quite sure how to get into the reserve, but then a gate revealed itself. Was a short pleasant stroll to GZ with a bit of light drizzle to cool us down on this humid day. Once there we soon had the cache in hand, cool size which you don't see everyday. Thanks

Found it! We were out and about with Jimbo_80 and OHC today intent on picking up a few of the easier caches around Berwick and Pakenham.
We miss calculated our approach to this one and found far to much barbed wire to deal with so it was back to our steeds for a short trip up the road and a leisurely stroll back. Another put of the way spot that we would never had come to if not for geocaching. Also the first time we have seen this brand of container in this size and we think it could suit a few future ideas...TFTC...

Another second to find after T.T. Geokids took a pink glo stick and we left a yellow golf tee on a warm arvo after school and daycare.

Published- Congratulations on your first cache placement. If you haven't already done so, please make sure you have a look at this item on the Geocaching Blog titled; ["You hid your first geocache, now what?"]( http://www.geocaching.com/blog/2015/03/you-hid-your-first-geocache-now-what/) and read the Help Centre article [Managing Your Geocache Listing](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=234) regarding looking after your cache page.

9000 seconds this cache sat unfound for, that has to be some sort of record for a Trad in this area. I was at work today when the email came through, a message from TSB soon followed, nope, at work, it's going to have to wait!
A few moments later while on hold to tech support a work colleague saw me checking out the email and ask what I was looking at, a brief run down on Geocaching soon followed (she thinks I'm nuts now).

My day dragged on and on, I kept clearing my emails only for this one to come up to the top time and time again as a reminder as to what I could be doing!
Before I knew it all my jobs were done and I suggested to my boss I have an early mark, she was up for that...hooray!!
I was familiar with the area and decided to park roadside and jump the fence, normally a great idea and well within my capabilities, today in my work suit not such a great idea, thank god I elected for flats and not heels or I really would have been in trouble!!
The cache screamed out to me and I had it in hand almost as soon as I arrived at GZ.
A good sized and well stocked cache was located, the log book was scrutinised and I was happy to see *FTF* was mine! Hooray!
Soon after the work colleague who ask me what I was doing text me saying "you left work quickly, are you ok?" Awe how sweet, she giggled a lot when I explained I flew out of the office to find one of those cache things...she promptly reminded my not to forget my daughter who needed to be picked up from kinder at 2:15pm.
Made it back to pick my daughter up from kinder with 2minutes to spare! Phew!
Geo daughter is now enjoying the Sundae from the voucher in the cache.

CoNgRaTuLaTiOnS on your first hide We_Like_Candy, I look forward to many more to come.
