Find # 16075Down in Melton to hit up some caches and Adventure Labs. But main reason was to go motorbike helmet shopping. After checking out a couple of bike shops in Melton, I headed around town grabbing ad labs. But then decided to head to Keilor to check out a few more bike shops... With shopping done I headed back to my original plan, "cache around Melton", hitting up The Toolern Vale Triangle and the Merry Bush Christmas trails and what ever other caches came up on the GPS. All caches found had no issues. It was great to be on some back tracks and make finds in an area I've had my eye on for some time now.TFTC Benjamin Screamer
Geoturtle37 and I headed off a little early for the pre event for The Great Cache Crawl that starts tomorrow. We were pleased that this was a nice quick find as the sky is seriously menacing and the wind is picking up. Still a lovely day to be out and about. Thanks for placing this cache for all to enjoy.
Out on the road with Mrs Cogs in the PeuGEOt to do a series of caches in the Toolern Vale area. TFTC
I learnt to play the triangle at school. Ding ding!! And ding!Thanks Benjamin Screamer and clear skies from TeamAstro. Cache the planet! | | I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I
I was near Sunbury today so I decided to go to Toolern Vale Triangle series. Nice size cache here but it took me a little longer than normal. Maybe I should trust my gps next time. Good coordinates. TFTC Benjamin Screamer
After a rainy night, we ended up with soggy feet as we traipsed through the long grass here. A nice little series to start our day of caching. *The generic bit*We took our new geo-vehicle on an overnight trip and did some caching on the way home. Although the weather was a bit cold and miserable to start with, once the sun cam out it was a pleasant day for a drive. We found a good assortment of caches, completed a few adventure labs and learnt a thing or two along the way. Thanks to all the COs for placing and maintaining the caches.
came back to see if we could find it and we did, took a lego man and lion and replaced it with a dinosaur and snake, signed the book too
Quick hunt had the cache in hand. Signed the log and returned the cache to its hiding place. TFTC
Found by Mary and David at 12:05. After Golden Arches coffee, we began. Took a while for the needle to settle. A rather damp log, as there was some water in the container and the zip-lock bag hadn't been sealed. We could still make our mark. Our thanks to Benjamin Screamer.
First cache of the day! Team_Riley taking our kids for the first time in years. Our 6yr old sons first geocaching experience.TFTC Appears bubblemix has leaked as the log is wet. Needs to be replaced.
11:20"Intervening Days" the pause between Christmas and New Year!After attending The Intervening days CITO 2023 and Intervening Days (Revisited) XV Events, the triangles looked like a Christmas treat for our map.Many school days memories were awakened as we worked successfully on the isosceles here.**FEEDBACK TO CO:** Water in container and log saturated.Thanks to Benjamin Screamer for hiding caches in interesting locations. 36258
The triangle series has been on my list for quite some time.TFTC, Benjamin screamer
Checked the tree and the other tree and the next tree and the next Thanks for the cache
we looked high and low and searched in and out of the fenced part and even around the other set of trees and couldn’t find it anywhere
Had 2 BenjaminScreamer caches as goals for the day on this dreary overcast Sunday in July. However, I decided to take a little detour to complete this Infernal & Toolern Vale triangle series.
With consistently spot-on coordinates, perfect hints & great containers with dry logs, I breezed through all of them.
Many thanks

We just got back from overseas yesterday and the countries visited had hardly any caches, so we are well behind in this month's wheel of challenge. So, a huge day of caching: ad labs, trads and of course hunting out those with lots of favourite points. I enjoyed this mini series, thanks for placing them.
A spot of caching with RoamingHowie over this side of town - as long as the rain holds off.
Thanks for bringing us here by placing this cache, Benjamin Screamer

The weather wasn’t looking great for today, however it appeared there might be a break in the rain during the middle of the day, so OzHockeyChick and I decided to team up and head west away from the weather.
The sun was fading and the temperature dropping further. We decided to whip around and complete this triangle as one of our last adventures for the day. Cache found in good order.
Thanks Benjamin Screamer for adding this cache to the worldwide collection for us all to enjoy.

While staying in Melbourne we picked up a few caches in the area and this was one of them.
Cache and contents were in good condition.

Out and about with Echidna44, we decided to do this Triangle series. We searched for a while here as both our GPSs struggled a bit. Eventually Echidna came up with the very fragrant cache.
Out with Boabtree, we had a lovely day caching in the Toolern Vale area.
A short search soon found #2. Thanks Benjamin Screamer.

Another nice quick find for this one, unfortunately i have run out of time to finish this series and will have to come back another day. Thanks for the fun.
The Trip
I think the stars have finally aligned for a two night trip, caching and camping along the Great Dividing Range. It seems that every time i have planned a caching trip in the last six months something has come up to thwart my plans or cut my trip short. I have high hopes that this week it will be perfect.
I started at Moorabool Reservoir and will be collecting caches from there in the direction of Riddells Creek although i have a lot to find so am unlikely to make it that far. The weather is glorious and there is a cool lilt in the air which makes for a pleasant change from home, and the shady forests are vibrant.
Champagne caching!

I had headed to Melton today to attend the Intervening Days (Revisited) XIV event but with a bit of time up my sleeve, I decided to go a little bit further North to find a few other caches in the area, this being one of them.
**Thanks to Benjamin Screamer for placing this cache.**

#20670. Aaah Melbourne you have done it again - mind-boggling heat one day and cold the next. We are off to Melton to attend an Event and find a few other caches in the area.
Decided to do just a few caches before heading back to Melbourne. It was getting cold and feeling dampness in the air so we chose this small series to do. All good with the hide here and a few other cachers seem to have beaten us to it today.
Thanks Benjamin Screamer

After attending the Intervening Days Event in Melton with BettyBoo3747 and the geodoggies, BB completed a couple of AdLabs around town, and then we came to look at these triangles.
A nice collection of good sized caches with easy finds.
Thanks, Robmc.

Well this one had me making crop triangles for a while until I spotted something that fitted in with the hint.
**Gotcha!**
Not so difficult when you are looking from the correct direction. [^]
Thanks for this one too Benjamin Screamer.
Almost done.
