This geocache is being permanently archived, as a replacement with a different sized container and location has been placed.Thanks to all who found the original !

This cache has once again been muggled.Debating as to whether or not to replace. Until then it will remain disabled.

Dnf today

Looks like the house of brick has been demolished. Cache missing

Tftc

Second trip and finally SUCCESS!!! Thanks for replacing,m and the great adventure.

TFTC

We were touring the area collecting a few caches and this one was too close to ignore.After looking at the wrong stump, we quickly discovered the brick house.In the end, we were only 1 clue short of finding the bonus cache. We'll be back another day.Thanks -e^ip for placing these caches around the area.Chiefton!!!

Good spot

Cache had been muggles and now has been replaced. Camoflauge has been upgraded, so it will blend in a bit more.

Coordinates changed from:S 37 48.737 E 145 18.380Coordinates changed to:S 37 48.740 E 145 18.377Distance from original: 23.3 feet or 7.1 meters.Had to move it as previous location was a pool of water after bit of a land slip. New location won't have that issue and is covered.

Tricky disguise

We were calling past here with the grandkids to re-find this one as we have found it before. It is definitely missing and there is a lot of rubbish now at GZ so this one definitely needs to be checked please

Sorry to say I reckon this has been removed. The bricks remain though. .

Im pretty sure I found the house, but no cache inside, so Ill log this is as a DNF

Cool spot

Fun find by Haz101

I found this cache today on my Northward-Ho Morning. I had started this series some months ago and it was my hope to complete the series today. I did get this one, but the fun stopped here. Thanks from D B-A

Been here a couple of times and finally found it. Thanks ️

Great little hide. Walked with son and found it. Yay

When we arrived, we thought we would be out of luck as there were a number or vehicles around but the find was made quickly and we were on our way. Thanks for placing the cache for us to find.

We have driven past here so often but being so close to home, we haven't stopped to have a look. Today, we decided to do so so wouldn't you know it, there were quite a lot of cars. Thankfully it didn't take long until we had our names in the log and the container rehidden. Thanks for the cache.

Thank you -e^ip for placing and maintaining Captain Pollution & the Eco-Villains - Toxics for us to find today.

Parked near BMX entry. Short walk for an easy find on a quiet grey day.

First find on a bitterly cold morning...my resolve is fading and my coffee machine is calling me, brrrr home I go? TFTC a quick find.

4 down, 2 to go

Nice and easy find. Thank you for the cache.

Tftc!

Easy find

I've got to break free
I want to break free, yeah
I want, I want, I want
I want to break free….

So leaving the warmth of home, I decided to head out and collect some caches. Usually I cache with my Partner The Welder but he is Völlig versunken, die Nase in einem Buch, Deutsch lernend… what started as learning a few words to help with kids homework has become something oh so much bigger… not for me thanks! I need a cache or two despite the rain!

Now on arrival at gz, I made the mistake of reading the hint and putting phone down and ignoring the gps for when I checked out what I thought was a likely yet bold hide, was in fact the mansion of a whole family of large spider, who when I dismantled their home got very irate and aggressive… oops. Obviously out of practice! So after checking the phone, I realised I was actually still a fair way from gz! Of course once I followed my phone, the cache was quickly found and signed. Thanks for the cache and nice to know you really didn’t hide the cache with a family of spiders.

Thanks for showing me this area

After wading through ankle deep water, sploshing through mud and beating off some ferocious, prickly blackberry guardians we found the well built residence protecting this cache . Container and contents were in very good condition dispite the amount of water lying near by.

Thanks for this cache -e^ip. We hope to find the other caches in this series. we like the ideas behind this little series.

My partner found it

Found it nice spot

Took me a little while to find a suitable parking spot here as the first was full, the second - hmm... - the third muddy and not where I hoped GZ might be so back to the second and a quick walk for - hopefully - a quick find. More mud and water but not enough to be a problem, the cache hide was quickly found and log filled, clues gathered and off I went (no writing implement issue this time ) Parking spot surprisingly busy with those offloading for recycling (one hopes!) - the second time it was half a car! TFTC

Used to ride the bmx track as a kid. Fun times. Cache is easy enough to find. Tftc

Another quick easy find. Tftc!

Great spot

I could not miss this on a damp day at GZ

It’s nice to be back and visit my old stomping ground, I grew up in Kilsyth, lived here till I was 22. Thanks for the cool series.

Nice quick find thanks!

Uhh

Nice easy find today, 3 down 3 to go!
No coords on this lid so hope I didn’t miss something

TFTC

*Edit* I did miss something - look harder than i did!

Out for a hunt before the rain tftc

This cache was a quick find... mainly because another cacher.was still holding it after finding it!

Thanks to -e^ip for the fun and the adventure.

TFTC

It was really easy to find it but the clue was to specific so that's why it was so easy to find!

Found at 1:39 pm.
It was nice to get out for a couple of hours once the rain had finally stopped so I headed out and just went and looked for whatever seemed closest next on the map and was not full of sporting muggles.
Third time lucky here, glad to get hold of this one and hope it remains ok in it's new location.
Thanks -e^ip for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

Those pricks looking a bit sussy

Awesome spot right next to where I was riding

Under a sus pile of pricks

Found it TFTC

After a DNF a few weeks ago on this I put on watch list and everyone was finding it so I went past again today with Fleabag- and after a search around for about 10 minutes with quite a large expanded circle we found nothing again.
Sometimes I'm not very good at this game....️
Thanks -e^ip for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

Replaced and moved cache, hopefully I do not require a fourth trip for this cache.

Replacing the cache for a third time, and moving it well out of the range of any passer-bys, looky loose, and council workers.

Nice quick one. TFTC. Enjoying my tour around Kilsyth this morning even with the cold wind.

A great cache series that we thoroughly enjoyed completing today. Thanks!!

Out with pinnacle333, we were doing the pollution caches around Kilsyth in the cold weather. This was a quick find with no muggles venturing out. Thanks -e^ip

As suggested this was a good excuse to get off the couch and get moving.
After finding the nice sized container I am understanding the idea behind the theme behind the series.

When I was doing this series a few days ago, this was missing. Noticing that it had been replaced, I called by tonight, after doing a night cache nearby.
Having sussed out the area on my last visit, I made a very quick find tonight.
Thanks -e^ip.

This was a quick trip out this morning between showers to have look for this cache. We had previously searched for this one without luck to find that later in the day it was deactivated as missing. This time a very quick find. Thanks to -e^ip for the cache and for replacing the previous one so promptly.

A busy work week so I needed a cache run to clear my head. I remember this TV series as a kid and thought why not grab the series in one hit. tftc

Easy for kids

Found it

Coordinates changed to:
S 37° 48.729 E 145° 18.373

Distance from original: 11.6 feet or 3.5 meters.

Had to move the hiding place just slightly as the area was recently mowed and cleaned.

Cache has been replaced.

Temporarily disabling as the council has come along for the first time in a decade and cleaned the area up.

Will require a new container and clues to be placed, should be done by the weekend.

Not found at 1:40 pm
After a chilly morning I decided to finally head out and find a puzzle cache today and this series had been on the radar for quite a while and today I had plenty of time so off I went in between doing an adventure lab at the same time.
After completing Captain Planet I started on these ones but had one DNF so couldn't look for the final cache.
I arrived to a deserted car park and after expanding my search to match numerous things mentioned in the hint I couldn't find anything...oh well, on to the next one. The final will have to wait.
Thanks -e^ip for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

Out of my own on my way to the Dandenong’s. Stopped to pick up of these couple of easy ones on the way.Thanks for the cache -e^jp
