A caching run through the area with +Wife.This is one of many finds for the afternoon. We came prepared and were successful in finding your geocache. Thank you for adding great hides for us to find.
Thanks for the quick grab! Log is a little bit wet, there was a lot of water in the cache when opened ! Thanks for find 361!
Every time I visit one of your caches, I'm always impressed. The creativity and effort you put into them are truly remarkable. I want to give all my favourites because you've done such a great job. Thanks for your hard work in making these puzzles that challenge and delight us. A big thank you to JuzzMagic for placing it!
A nice few hours out with Geoturtle37, this one was a quick find, using some natural tools left nearby.
Met up with Kploz and Helikeli as my family are all away. I spotted the cache container but no even the height of Helikeli was no help. We found an appropriate tool to retrieve and sol signed the log. Thanks for the cache.
TFTC - In the area with HeliKelli and Morcs4. Located the cache. Another well thought out cache by JuzzMagic
A cool autumn morning caching with Kploz and Morcs4 finishing off this amazing series that has been worthy of a nomination for this years Caching Awards. A very clever gadget cache with a very handy tool of the trade located nearby. Another favourite point awarded.
Not realizing that this is where we would end up today, no special equipment had been packed.Not to worry, [@spiffy-](https://coord.info/PR6VBPJ) Spiffy- ended up being the tool That just makes me laugh. We were very grateful for his toolness. Thanks spiffy-And thankyou JuzzMagic, the magic just keeps coming
Well this day keeps on getting better and better!Team KiSS had completed the series at the Basin when spiffy- noticed that there was another section of JuzzMagic caches to be found!We weren't prepared but that was okay as [@spiffy-](https://coord.info/PR6VBPJ) informed [@Snips and Co](https://coord.info/PR2TFBV) and I that we didn't need a special tool, we had him.... hmmmm. To my surprise, we had the cache in hand to sign and it all worked out!Well with that small snag dealt with it was time for lunch to re-energise and tackle the rest!thanks JuzzMagic for the fun
An extra bonus cache after our walk around the Retarding Basin. Now for a Pepsi Max from the funny little hotdog van nearby . . .
After collecting all the smilies in the Retarding Basin, we wandered over the busy road to find this little ripper nearby. Another wonderful JuzzMagic construction and a few ducks nearby eyeing it off. Thanks for a wonderful afternoon of high quality caching.
I was at risk of being clobbered, After I had it in-hand I realized that there was a safer way! Thanks JuzzMagic
A quick find just outside the reserve on a Saturday morning walk. Easy retrieval with natural tools lying around. Thanks
One last cache for the day, we headed to GZ equipped with G&J's squid pole which was a little overkill but J got the cache down easily and after logging our visit put it back up securely (it needed a little persuasion to get back "home") TFTC
Out for a late arvo of caching with quiet1_au, we decided the close by series would be fun to do and would add to the step tally for the day! After finishing off that series we decided to drop in to see this one as the last one for the day. JMelb did the fun retrieving. Log was surisingly a little damp but there has been a LOT of rain recently!. Another great one but we have run out of FP's! Too many great caches around here lol TFTC JuzzMagic - GJMMelb
Ventured over to the other side today. Caught up with Papi4506 and Geoturtle37 who kindly drove me around finding some great caches. Lovely day, lovely scenery, lovely company. Enjoying this series of caches Thanks JuzzMagic for your fantastic efforts and for contributing to this great game for myself and others to enjoy. Happy trails, Deanside
You can see all the sticks on the ground so many to choose from !! TFTC
Love it when a stick can do the job - no need to stretch too high! Write in the rain paper is also great. TFTC
Out for an evening of caching away from the TV. Thanks for the clever hide and the distraction.
Great day out. Great and interesting hunt. What a day. Very clever hides. Thanks to mrx2 and Monica_is_evil for a great afternoon of challenging caches. Very clever. Thanks to the cache owner, Juzz Magic, for the incredible cache.
First find on an afternoon out caching with mrx2 and diablo1234. Well constructed cache, enjoyed finding this one. TFTC!
A nice easy find and another quality hide from JuzzMagic. After completing the nearby basin series, I really didn't expect anything lessTftc
In our eagerness to get at the log, we overlooked some hoops which would have made our retrieval a lot easier. It was only when we had it in our hands that we realised what we should have done. Doh!Thanks JuzzMagic for another beautifully created cache. Another favourite point from us (despite our embarrassment).When we headed off to this area for our day of caching, we had no idea what we were about to find. What we found was the highest concentration of unbelievably creative and well constructed caches that we had ever seen. We also loved the 'boldness' of all of the hides. We thank the CO for all of the effort put into these caches and for providing us with a most memorable day.Chiefton!!!
Enjoyed this cache offering a variation on others of this type. Quickly located and retrieved by Skylizard and I today. TFTC Juzzmagic.
Out caching today with TanSaf after attending an event in Boronia we decided to try and find the JuzzMagic caches around Kilsyth. Was trying out a DIY cache fishing pole, perfect to access this nice little cache, another creative construction and another favourite point Thanks JuzzMagic for the cache.
07:51With today earmarked for the Kilsyth area, an early start from home in the company of very good caching companions Suscoe, we focussed on the JuzzMagic series.What an amazing series of caches - carefully designed and cleverly presented, some certainly challenged our combined thought processes, all well deserving of a favourite point. We have written a generic log the experience was JUST MAGIC!Thanks to JuzzMagic for creating this series for the geocaching game.. 36057
Suscoe headed up to the Kilsyth area today with our very good friends Phetlern.Our goal today was to visit the JuzzMagic series of geocaches and a few others if time permiittedWe were amazed by the variety of the caches that we found and the work gone into creating these interesting hides. Thanks goes to JuzzMagic for this cache and series. We enjoyed our day out finding them.A favourite point for the effort put in here.
Found with icw. Walking up to the Bird Hilton we encountered a pair of Magpies. They weren't looking for a hotel to stay the night, but did expect us to provide food. They soon realised we were of no use to them and wandered off to look for scarab larvae and other tasty morsels. We used one of our specials tools to claim the log, but realised a simpler way existed. Tftc.
Took the special tool #4002 there and it worked a treat. Now to an H2O one. there also, TFTC
Having enjoyed a fabulous weekend in Melbourne celebrating all things GIFF movies and milestone birthdays, there was time for a few more caches before heading back to Western Victoria.After a lovely walk in the glorious spring sunshine around The Basin with friends, finding the new series out there, we had a late lunch at the Hot Dog van parked on the roadside and then realised this cache was not that far away. A nice easy retrieval of yet another cleverly designed and constructed cache. Will sneak another fave point here as we still do have a spare, and all these Juzzmagic caches are worth it. Now we have to go back home and plan some more caching trips so we can be armed with more fave points for our next assault on caches next time we are down this part of Melbourne. It certainly is an area full of talented creative cache owners. TFTC Juzzmagic.
Cache found and log signed with dalerious . I am wondering if one day you are going to get tired of hearing about how good your caches are. No, I don't think so. I can tell you, we won't get tired of telling you how good they are .We already had a fantastic day with a CITO early and then the GIF; boy, what a Gif.Then it was off to get some caching done. JuzzMagic caches was what topped this awesome day off.Thank you for the pleasure .
After the GIFF, I teamed up with McLookers and Micaparamedic to collect mainly JuzzMagic caches. All caches found signed as MMM. Quick find here.My thanks to JuzzMagic for the cache.
I think my idea of a Bird Hilton is different to this CO but still see the difference in class.Here's the generic log bit.Found with FUF009 and written in logs as FUSH.We came from the West, where I live, and the major reason was to attend OzHockeyChick's birthday, and then the GIFF got added. We only targeted JuzzMagic caches today as I had heard good things, and we were not disappointed. This took us the whole of the day bar the events. The day was hot to begin with, quickly got cold, then hot, then cold. This played havoc with my body temperature regulating system which is currently being manipulated by chemicals. We really enjoyed these caches and I have given everyone a favourite point. Tftc
Find # 13127Found with sharkiefan.Well we had heard good things on this series of caches so looked at finding them one day. Seeing as the GIFF and a birthday event was over this side of the big smoke we had our plan sorted. We had 8 signed then the GIFF. Then back on the series where we got the rest signed off before heading to the Birthday event. Yep it was a day of just JuzzMagic and events (till we headed back west where we stopped off for a couple other smilies).We were not disappointed, what we had heard about was right on, these are some cool caches and so glad we done them. They definitely kept is thinking outside the box and some over rethinking on some of the hides.A great days out. ??Once again nature supplied the tool required. Just hope we didn't disrupt any birds out on holidays at the Hilton. ??TFTC JuzzMagic
Found and signed with catnap777 @5:35pm. [:X]Cache and contents in excellent condition. We had heard stories. We have been told how good JuzzMagic caches are. Now we know for sure and we will be coming back to get the rest. Fortunately for us, we had our trusty fishing pole (fashioned from a golf ball retriever) with us so putting our names in this log book was fairly straight forward. TFT(Fun)C JuzzMagic. Our Remembrance Day started with a long drive to the city for a CITO in Footscray, then another drive to Bayswater for the GIFF event where a wonderful cinematic experience was had by all.After that, cat' and I needed a bit of exercise, and targeting some long saught after challenge caches proved the perfect plan. Nearby, we made time to sample some JuzzMagic before turning tail to be home by midnight. [^]
TFTC! 11 November 2023 8:52:02 pm 6408A quiet straight forward cache to find and complete. Used some materials around to source the logbook.
Out and about for a great half day of caching with echidna44 for some more puzzles. We made one a lot harder than we should have. Having the sun in our eyes did not help. We totally took the cache down only to realize we did not need to. But we returned it as we found it. Thanks for the cache puzzle juzzMagic
Out with xambo4u, we were doing the latest JuzzMagic caches. We went about this cache the wrong way, so with much laughter we signed the log and returned it back to its proper place. Thanks for the fun JuzzMagic.
**29/10/2023, 08:09:00****Find #5457****Traditional Find #3215**I headed out this morning with Steve for our first caching run in a very long time. We'd heard so many good things about this series that we had to experience it for ourselves. These caches didn't disappoint. Nature provided the TOTT we needed and Steve had the cache in hand very quickly. A favourite point from me.**Thank-you to JuzzMagic for placing this geocache**
*Found on the 29 Oct 2023 @ 8:10am.**Cache find # 15172.*I headed out today with Mark ( biggles1024 ), something we haven't done for a little while to investigate this series of caches as they sounded very interesting and we had also heard that they were worth seeking out. This was the first for today as we were driving passed, we made the stop and headed over to GZ where the cache was spotted quickly, with the help of the natural TOTT the cache was soon in hand and the log stamped.**Thanks to JuzzMagic for keeping the game going by placing this cache.**
omegaman1971Support Your local Villain Iive - Laugh - Lurk Caches Found: 12667First To Find Number: 115Sidetracked Cache Finds: 101After a day Infront of the Tv watching the V8 supercars on the Goldcoast, I needed some fresh air and sun, so these local caches were perfect.I had also had Rebel Acts TOTT available, which made the recovery of these caches so much easier. Cheers JuzzMagic for the cache and some fun in the arvo sun.
While the forecast rain held off, RoamingHowie and I made a last minute decision to head out to try to finish off these JM caches.I think the hardest part about this one was finding somewhere to park. Nicely made! Thanks for bringing us here by placing this cache, JuzzMagic ~~
Happy Birthday Geocaching Victoria!It was a muggy spring day. A last minute decision to finish off the JuzzMagic series with OzHockeyChick had us in the car again hoping to beat the rain.We found somewhere to park and made a relatively quick find of this one. The last find for the day which means it must now be ice cream time.Thanks JuzzMagic for adding this cache to the worldwide collection for us all to enjoy.----------------------------------------------------------The 12 Days of Cachemas series is now live.

This was our last cache for the day. After finding a parking spot that wouldn't cause problems to anyone, we crossed the road and quickly spotted the Hilton. The TOTT we had brought with us worked fine, and we soon had the log signed.Thanks Juzzmagic.
Second cache for the day. This one is a long way from any type of public transport, and I debated the 5km return journey, but was curious to see what the CO had done with this one. At GZ I was amazed to find something that I knew how to retrieve without pondering and fiddling for half an hour. The cache was coaxed down, the log signed and it was off to the next cache.
So the parking near here is a bit iffy, but we managed to find a spot by. Arriving at GZ the magnificent Hilton was spotted and thanks to previous cachers (we presume), a very nice TOTT was available. No birds were disturbed in the signing of the log. We did however enjoy the croaks of the resident frogs. Another magnificent JuzzMagic cache.Favourite awarded
After a visit to the Stringybark Festival in Rowville this morning and early afternoon and sampling some of the food trucks for lunch we then headed over here because I had been holding Fleabag's extension pole for a little while and wanted to return it so he came along for the ride and to make sure it still worked.Parked nice and close on the nature strip here because there was no parking on the road. A lot of tree trimming has been going on here but the cache is safe and sound and thanks to the tool we soon had the log signed on this one.Thanks JuzzMagic for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.
Currently trying to finish the year with a streak and so heading out daily, for a cache. Plus their are a few other caches I need for challenges. Today I was out with Spiffy- to collect a few of these cool caches.Enjoyed the craft work here. Our TOTT made for easy retrieval followed by Spiffy-'s standard first cache of the day comment... "forgot my pen..."Thanks to JuzzMagic for the fun and the adventure.
Thanks for the Cache JuzzMagic,Though I didn't have the required Tool, I always carry a chainsaw and a Big Hammer. Turns out I needed neither, was able to use some recent prunings to fashion the required Tool, fortunately for the tree concerned.I enjoyed the Cache design and Gadget too.A favourite for me.Regards from Victourer
Out for a walk on a lovely sunny Melbourne Day and we also picked up a couple more of JuzzMagic's caches. This one was spotted quickly and again with the aid of our TOTT we were able to retrieve and return without too much trouble. TFTC.
We had the right TOTT with us but there seemed to be options on hand. The log was quickly in hand and signed. Thanks to JuzzMagic for the cache.
Out and about with Tiz13 for another one of our weekly caching adventures, there are always plenty of laughs while we are turning caches into smiles.This is one of the caches found today. Had no trouble with this one.Thanks JuzzMagic for the cache.
Out with Rebel Acts this afternoon for some caching shenanigans and a lot of laughter. We headed out to do a few more Juzzmagic caches to entertain us. A few of these caches Rebel Acts had already done a few he had not. We came over prepared for this cache, but that's okay. There were no long walks today, and I enjoyed practising my trident moves. (Photo of random windows dressing I found amusing near one of the caches.)
Nicely set up cache and with the appropriate tool falling easily to hand it was a quick and satisfying find. TFTC
Great day out finding some new JuzzMagic caches with our new homemade TOTT. Anything over 2 metres would be a stretch. This was just perfect and we found and retrieved the cache from its 5- star accommodation, signed and reset for the next finder.
We found this cache today on our Late Sunday Morning - Early Sunday Afternoon Kilsyth Caching Caper. Our final cache of the day and how enjoyable it was. Loved what we found at every stop today and it certainly lightened our pockets of many favourite points as the day went on. Well, there's plenty more where that came from and I feel sure that we will be back up here again in the very near future emptying more pocket contents into the JuzzMagic Piggy Bank. Oh and this was our 201st 3TF. Thanks from D & HA B-A
I was on a mission to get plants for the backyard and when my wife suggested mt Evelyn I agreed but there would be detours. This was one of them! A quick find with nature providing a tott and after feeding a horse across the road I was onto the next. tftc

{FTF} With dinner completed and the cleanup commenced, finally some new cache notifications at a time I can go for the FTFs ??. After a quick read of the descriptions and therefore grabbing the appropriate TOTT, I was in the car and away. This was the third find for this evening and darkness was falling. Unfortunately I had not grabbed the caching bag containing my head torch from the other car, so I managed to make retrieving the log more difficult than it needed to be. All's well that ends well though, and signing the pristine log sheet is a great pleasure. This is a neat device, indeed. I have one similar in my "caches in progress" stash. TFTC juzzmagic, your ingenuity and creativity continue to impress ??
