Hidden well, thanks for the challenge, I likeIt when theyre hard to find
Second attempt. Got it and it was near draining. Try it at night when there are fewer folk on the ground. Thank.
Was just sitting on the ground in the open. Have hidden it better for next finder
Was searching for a while and had to resort to a PAF. They talked me through it and I had searched the area from head to toe. Maybe it has gone for a walk.
WOW that was interesting find! The camouflage was extremely unique and took us to a awesome sunset viewing area. Thank you for the cache!
Found on a quick jaunt down to the local Barwon area to knock off some of the few remaining hides. Lucky for me, I think most of the famous spiderwebs have been recently dealt with by my predecessors.
Cache in good knick. I think the camo is still in play as well. This was a clever and simple way to do it. Fooled me at first glance while I mucked about with iPhone GPS.

Was heren together with Malihoe. We took a good look around en read the logs of other players. After a couple of tries we found it!
It seems like today is the day to be out and about. Cache was found after a quick search. TFTC
Quick school holidays/work lunchbreak geocaching trip for team DuckNomNom - our first Geelong find. Road was blocked off, lots of spider webs to access but we found & signed log. TFTC
I had failed to find this one some time back. This time armed with some mroe fortitude anda stick to swat webs away I was able to find the cache after a couple of minutes, and a read of some previous logs with tiny hints to help.
Mr Riddell got down and into the heart of things with a resultant quick find.

Took a look around with a mate. Couldn't find it. Might come back another time.
Hooray! 3rd time lucky to turn a blue face to yellow. They are always easy once you find them. Thanks
On my way i to the CBD via a few adlabs & physical caches. Swung past here and started hunting inbetween muggles. Go high? Go low? That is the question future finders will have to answer. I no linger have to however, as the find was eventually made.
I recall when this cache was published, as much as I wasnt seriously chasing first to finds (or any caches) at that point I did consider making the dash, but then remembered FTF hunting on first hides can end in disaster. It wouldn’t have there though, a well placed cache with accurate coordinates, well done to CO.

Staying in Geelong in order to attend appointments in Melbourne, we decided to go for a walk. This cache was on the way. Great camo here.
Found the cache on the ground and returned it to where we think it is supposed to be, according to past activity. TFTC️
After a long search and some clues from recent logs I eventually found this cache. Extremely well hidden. TFTC.
Bunadoorian and I were in the area for an event nearby later today. We had picked up some donuts to take to the event and then thought we would try to find a few caches in the area. This one took a little while to find as we both looked at all likely spots. After reading a previous log it gave Bunadoorian an idea and soon found the well hidden cache. TFTC and for bringing us here - DenzilLudowyk
In Geelong today, to do some shopping, we made a slight detour to find a cache.
We had attempted to find this cache another day, but as we got out of the car, the heavens opened, and we chose to stay dry rather than get soaked to the skin looking for a cache.
This is an interesting spot to be looking for a cache as there were quite a few muggles passing by. Some came up quickly and quietly. But we had a mission: to find a cache, so we put up with a few odd looks and persevered.
Our perseverance paid off, and we soon had the cache in hand. The cache is in great condition. Thank you for this cache DenzilLudowyk

I gave up earlier than I normally would here. Muggles constantly catching me & giving me very weird looks. Very uncomfortable staying any longer
hoped for a smiley but unable to locate this one after work tonight (use to love a good cache in the dark now l cant seem to do it lol)
With a stop off on the way to a friend’s house for dinner, the light was fading. Eventually found the cache with a little help.
Thanks for placing the cache MovieManGeelong.

A lovely walk along the riverside to this very well hidden cache. Met others here so a search began. The sneaky hide was soon discovered, names added and cache rehidden Tftc DenzilLidowyk. A FP here
Out caching with a couple of non-caching muggles. Took us a while, but eventually found this really nicely hidden cache!
Well we walked to this one from a nearby event. (late logging). After a small search we met up with others and continued searching.
Discovered this a little later and we all signed in before heading back to the rotunda.
Thanks DenzilLudowyk

**Found after attending Bushfire's Geelong Event**
Chasing a few caches with The Empire after attending the **DO YOU HAVE ONE OF THESE!** events
A fantastic day to be out in the fresh air and sunshine. It was great to be back in the area again and able to swing past and make the find?
A nice straight forward find here ( **IF** you look properly [:o)]). Left my mark on the log and replaced as found.
Thanks for the cache MovieManGeelong. Appreciate your efforts.

Found by The Empire with Snap Happy
After hanging out with everyone at the event, including the man himself, Bushfire, we spent the rest of the afternoon caching around this part of G-Town. We had to PAF to get to this one as we were on a streak of not being able to see caches right in front of us... Thanks for the cache DenzilLudowyk.

Found after attending Bushfires event, once at the right level the cache was soon in hand.
Thanks for the cache.
Thanks for the cache.
Teamashy and I headed here after Bushfires event. Bumped in to some other cachers, and cache was located. TFTC
Found by Mary and David at 17:15. Came with daughter GeoJo, who had been here before without success. A nice quick one today. A great hide and camo. Our thanks to MovieManGeelong.
Pleased to finally cross this one off the list! Turned out we were making the search far more difficult than we needed. Maccadad found the cache within minutes of returning to the easier spot. TFTC!
With an unable to retrieve at the cache down the road I still need a find today. This is great. I felt a little dodgy finding the cache but luckily it was quick and done before someone strolled by. Tftc.
*River Bike Ride Waiting For Venturers To Arrive Adventure #5*
My Geoson had a Venturers event riding bikes from Fyansford to Breakwater. Good ol' Geodad had to do the pick up and drop off, of course. However, that was an excellent excuse to drag my own bike out and hit up a few caches!
I had finally found the Venturers, and they chose to cross the Barwon at the MacIntyre footbridge. Well... if we were going to ride *right past* another cache, who was I to say no?
Thanks heaps, DenzilLudowyk!

On a day's outing from Bellbrae to Geelong, LittleBoss2 and I had a great day doing AL caches, EC's and trads, puzzles and multis. This was a nice quick find at the accurate coords. Thanks DenzilLudowyk
We were keen to get out this weekend to climb the mountain and reach the peak of Mt Everest with tomorrow forecast to be hot today was the best day to go. Geelong had a few unfound caches that have been building over the last little while and today it was time to turn them into smileys.
There was a rowing regatta on today so that meant there was a fair bit of traffic over the bridge, definitely more than normal anyway. Neville_devil had already had a bit of a look and came away without spotting the prize. I was lucky enough to get my eyes on it pretty quickly.
Thank you DenzilLudwyk for the hide

I had made a late start to the day, but keen to get out and energise with my faithful companion.
SimsFamily and Neville devil had also started earlier that morning. So we joined up and continued to look for local puzzle and Multi caches around Geelong which was a hive of activity at many locations. Plus a detour to Aireys inlet for a lab cache.
This area was one of the many busy locations today. So we had to keep an eye out for muggles passing by. After a thorough search the cache was located.
Log signed and replaced as found.
Thanks for the Traditional Cache Denziludowyk

Found while out and about running some errands in the morning.
Took a second longer than initially thought as it was not where we looked first.

Sneaky. Found with GeoYeet975. Expected a quick grab, but spent a decent 5-10 minutes searching. Bridge was populated, hard not to look too suspicious. TFTC!
Stopped by with millysk888. A few muggles come across the bridge, so stealth is key. Tftc
Up or down, I wondered. And wandered. Found it in the end, nice hide! All in order

With the stormy weather bringing burst of spasmodic rain, we were able to continue some more caching in between showers. A quick find here after waiting for many muggles that were using the bridge.
Thanks DenzilLudowyk for the placement.
Thanks DenzilLudowyk for the placement.
A quick find early this morning after looking from the correct side. In good condition.
Took a while was a hard one. Nice and sneaky hide. I had the wrong idea initially, stuck with it longer than I should have... But returned less than an hour after my original DNF and smashed out a smiley TFTC...

With an evening planned for the "Return to Events & Mr Sims_family Turns 50" Community Celebration at Ceres, this is one of the cache related detours we were able to make on the way.
The muggles were out and about, not sure what they may have thought about our antics!
Thanks DenzilTheGreat for placing this cache. Will there be more to follow?

Still no luck on our second attempt. Have received a hint but we still ended up empty handed! Not giving up yet - but scratching our heads!
TFTC, took a few minutes to find, but found in the end. Quiet a few people out today here!
To some, the cache is easy. I know where it is. If not, you can be searching everywhere and anywhere. Hanging? Base of tree? Tucked away? Buried? This one was tough. Thanks for the cache today!
Finally able to tick this one off, yay. We'd spent a good few hours on several occasions with many members of the family and had returned with no luck. So I had to result to some CO contact and a PAF which put me in the right direction and with some time to kill before the soccer game we were going to at GMHBA I decided I would run and have a search for the hide that's not to far away from us luckily. When arriving at GZ I was glad to see that the activity on the river had died down which lead to an almost muggle free search. This time thanks to the helpful advice the cache was located within 5 minutes. I think it could have taken quite a few more searches for me to find this one if I hadn't had the help, clever little spot. Well done and thanks on great first hide DenzilTheGreat
The cache is still there, in good condition. It is quite hard and you have to look carefully
Hi everyone, a couple of DNF in a row, will go check in it sometime this week
