By SteMicMitSar on 11-Apr-18. Waypoint GC7N6FA

Relatively quick find today.Lots of rabbit to keep us company!TFTC

Quick find but had to watch out for rabbit holesTFTC

Just as I was about to give up I found it

Nice one to find while I was lunching on the park. TFTC.

Thanks for my first find!

Found just before 7pm, in the dark, right as we were about to give up!

Found it with some difficulty at 7pm

Good find

GEOCACHE #310 (07/08/2024)

Found it, but took ages! Easy in plain sight except for leaf litter, rabbit holes and sticks! Thanks

Yes this is bunnie heaven - rabbit holes everywhere. Fortunately they haven't stolen the cache.

Searched the area but unfortunately didnt find it!

After a short scratch around, all good here. Close to the city but still place for some farmland

Great spot!!!

Thanks for the cache, out and about collecting other caches in the park and decided to go for the extra time return walk to go out and grab this one. Took some time to find as the local rabbits half buried the cache. But with abit of earth works the cache was recovered. Log signed and returned back to its original hiding spot.

Found it , out at night we went in with our torches. Found the cache easily as it was out in the open, maybe an animal had moved it. Put it back where we thought it should be. Tftc

I had a bus driving job nearby, so headed out on the bike to find a few caches. This was the southernmost cache I found today before heading back towards the bus. Nicely tucked away, all in good condition. TFTC SteMicMitSar

Found the cache and met an unexpected friend (it was a bullant the size of a 10c coin) and met a cuter friend, a bunny! We decided to find this cache on our way to Nandos for dinner. TFTC!

Nice spot in a good park. TFTC!

First find! Excited!

Found with Geokids, TFTC.

That was a nice bike ride to get there, very fun

Out with dot558 on a lovely afternoonThanks for the cache

Found it with 46x

Remember to dig!

Tftc

Difficult find. TFTC!

A trip to Braeside bought me to Braeside Park to get the caches that have been on the to do list for far too long.This cache I looked for a while ago with no success, seems you either have your cache senses on or off with this one. Today was a slow approach to GZ to allow the GPS to settle and then first place I looked had the cache in hand, signed and returned.Thanks SteMicMitSar

A lot of decoy hiding spots that this one couldve been in, but eventually I got on the right track and hit the plastic with a stick. For those who read the description, the cache is no longer byo pen as there is a pencil in the container. TFTC!

We looked around for a while, felt like we were really close based on comments.. but no luck

Great spot for a Sunday morning walk!

It says I'm on it but I couldn't find it :/

Looked for an hour and couldn’t find it at all. The tree in photos was flipped over so might need to be checked on

Not there

A quick stop on the way home from work as I have a calendar hole to fill and I ‘gotta find a cache’! It’s nice to see a bit of the other side of Braeside Park.
The find was not as straightforward as I’d hoped, but a little perseverance paid off.
I made a note of the clue, although I have since realised that the bonus is no longer
Thanks for the cache SteMicMitSar

Hard but hard

Bikeing Braeside a cache and birding tfth

This is my local park and never start my walk from this end, nicely hidden TFTC

This cache was tricky to find. it is a simple but effective hide. I collected the clue for the bonus.

Pretty excited to have found it ️ very good little hiding spot. TFTC now 5 more to go!

Nicely hidden with natural camouflage with a little digging needed to get it out. In the end the family of beetles gave it away. Thanks for the great find

Quick look after a Junior Rangers activity, sadly DNF. Maybe next time...

Can't find it man its hidden pretty good

I was in the area today for a U3A Knox bird watching group walk. A brief look before the walk proved fruitless but following lunch a more careful look revealed the cache. Thanks to SteMicMitSar for the cache.

Took a bit of poking around to find but all there and a cunning little hide. TFTC

Another check on this one and once again it is still in its hide waiting to be found

Nothing here for me today. The only place I didn't check was where it seemed a trap had been placed?

Spent 20 mins looking around. Did not find.

This is now a stand-alone cache and no longer part of a series as half are now archived

Checked on this one today and for a change this one is actually still there it was just a bit more buried than it should have been.

Spent about 20 minutes looking for it and was unsuccessful

Spent ages looking, but all I could see were rabbits holes!!!

Just a quick stop as I was in the area. I haven’t found the previous caches, so I’m wondering if I’m missing something in the clue or it’s just not a find. Poked around with a stick hoping to hear plastic (that way the spiders can’t get me haha!) to no avail.

Second geocache for novice me and first find for our toddler kids who wanted to take it home, and are now having a tantrum that they want to find another treasure!!
Very clever hiding spot, didn’t take too long but definitely could have!

Found by Omegaman1971

Out caching with Rebel Acts and hopefully the rain holds off so we can put some smiles on the map.

This is an area I know well, I spent my first 20 years of life living in keysborough and Noble park. It has certainly changed over the years.

This is one of the caches we found today, cheers and thank you for the fun.

Found by Rebel Acts

Out and about once again with Omegaman1971 for our regular weekend catch up and cache, to day we headed to an area where we both still had plenty to find and a few solved puzzles I was keen to pick up.

This is one of the caches found today.


Thanks SteMicMitSar for the cache.

Last one for the day. I can see how this hide could have you wandering in circles scratching your head. Thankfully the cache revealed itself pretty quickly. I took note of the clue for the final. Thanks SteMicMitSar for placing and maintaining this cache.

Was definitely harder than expected but it was still a fun cache ))))))

Slightly panicked that I didnt bring my pen, happened to be in the area to visit the wet lands! Cute trinkets inside. Tftc

That was tougher than expected. There's only so long you can stand around thinking "where would I hide a cache?"

We started this series way back in 2012! Back in the area today so a quick find (and grab of the clue) and sign the mice fresh log book. TFTC

Cache as been replaced with a 200mL Sistema
Which has a new logbook with the clue for the final
Slightly different spot to previous but the coordinates are still good.

We certainly had to find a cache! We gotta find a night cache too! Log book needs replacing as it’s a bundle of loose paper. Looked but didn’t see any clue.

Out and about in the area for work today and I gotta find a cache! This one was an easy stop and the toilets nearby came in handy! When you work on the road it's always nice to find some clean toilets and when they're in a pretty location near a cache that's a bonus... anyway enough of the toilet talk!

I'll definitely be coming back to this park with some friends or family in the future, it's a great spot that I'd like to explore more. There were some very excited kiddos running around in the light rain here today which made me happy to see. I'm sure my niblings would be the same

It's always good for the ego when a cache is in the very first place you look, and today left me feeling good about my geosenses! I didn't see a clue as the cache is full of loose paper so I'm no closer to finding the final haha.

Thanks for the cache and a new area to explore!

This is my first geocache

Quick find with me the kids trailing behind. TFTC. Very busy park today but sun was out and it was lovely

That’s the fifth one. One more to go

Quick in and out type of cache! Very busy in here today! Log book needs replacement.

TFTC

Nothing to add to the cache today

Nice spot, not too hard to spot once close, thanks!

With Mrs one-eyed on the first day from 5kmn lockout spent and afternoon caching great spot tftc from one\ eyed

????

FIFTH FIND

Found with the geofam, a nice easy find. TFTC!

Thx, found it

Great hiding spot love it!

Good find, fallen trees around so take some hints from that.

TFTC. Found with Master 8! Just within our 5 restricted area.

Ugh

Loggy log log

Definitely still there. Out in a night safari and this one bobbed up

I AM GUR

I think someone's gone and nicked it

Nifty hide

Quick find

Nice easy find, accidentally used someone else photo as a hint without thinking

Nice easy find.

Matty and Brandon 29/03

Nice easy find, first with Geoson! He was stoked. TFTC

Took a little

Was driving by and thought I'd do a quick cache. Found after a quick search, signed log. Tftc.

Sneaky spot.

Looked in the same spot 3 times before we actually found it!

I needed some bush therapy today, so headed down to Braeside Park for a couple of hours. It's such a nice park, with heathlands and grassy woodlands and wetlands... I recently rediscovered the park after many years, and enjoyed finding a few of the available geocaches. On my way to this cache, I took a trail past the wetlands and admired the birds.

Confession: this was not actually the first time I attempted to find this cache. I think previously I was fixated on a particular type of hide and was running out of time. Today I saw the thing the moment I arrived. Go figure. Cache blindness one day... geosense kicks in the next! Weird. Anyhow, success today and I even remembered to write down the clue. Huzzah! TFTC

Free day today, what better to do then go out and collect some caches before I have to be in Clayton tonight.
All and all was a nice day out with Many quick and easy find made.
Thanks for the cache and the drive out on this fine day.

Found

Quick easy find. TFTC

Fairly simple find. Grabbed the clue and on our way. 5 more to get! TFTC

We had finished the original series awhile ago and saw this cache had popped up a couple of years ago. Today Mrs Crackers had left work a little earlier and decided to stop on the way home to look for this one, It was quite hot so she was hoping for a quick find but the GPS gods weren't being kind and the GPS wouldn't settle on any one spot so she expanded her search checking likely spots and then bingo there it was so our name has been added to the log and the well hidden cache was returned as found.

Thanks SteMcMitSar for the cache,
