Well after many moons we've decided to archive this cache.
We went out today to pull it from its hiding spot. Thankyou all who have visited the cache and enjoyed what is a small and remote park.
We hope to replace it with another in the same park some time in the future.

TFTC, Nice and easy; joint with Saulman1010. Rain didnt deter; maybe the volume of traffic (vehicles) put saulman1010 off a bit.
Spent today clearing all the newbie caches in the areas that I have previously cleared.
Grabbed this one in between rain showers with Hazey1 as co-pilot.
Nice quiet muggle free today.
Can see why previous cachers saw speed camera in area - where's the bloody fire? Considering the weather, people drive far too fast out this way!

Looked for a while but it was very muddy and cold, will come back when it warms up a bit and the ground isn't so muddy
Went looking for this with travvy2000 but no luck. Ground was very muddy but looking at the other photos on here we may have been looking in the wrong spots. Maybe next time..!
Parked on the side of the road and wandered into GZ

Traveling with edmil we found this one @ 17:00hrs today
As the light was beginning to diminish we called this one the last for the day.
The rim of the container is broken which prevents the lid from sealing properly. The contents are fairly damp and may need some attention very soon.
Fairly easy find.

Once again Mrs AMM9449 pulled rank and decided that too many overgrown bushes in the area will hinder our search! Will definitely go back again for the search - might leave Mrs AMM9449 at home next time!!
Found it, Right weather as did get rain as it was grey cloud but bit heavy humid and plenty of mozzies. TFTC
Nice little park. Took Clifford the Big Red Dog and left PSP emergency charger and garfield tattoos. TFTH!
Found bits of the sealing lip on the ground near this cache. Looks like the lid has been forced a few times.
in the company of cycling_guy (who had already done this one), I had quite a bit of fussing about due to poor sat lock and a million potential hidey holes. In the end, I was shown the cache location. Cheeky.... And I doubt I would have found it without help.

17-01 18th find of the day at 19:39 and 815th find in total.
On our way home from a big day caching in the hills so we thought we would stop and have a rest by doing a cache. We almost missed it except that Echo hit something with a stick that just didn't sound right.
(''\(OoO)/'') Thanks Em_Eagle for the caching fun!

Nice location - nearly a drive by. Although the park was locked down to vehicles - I presume to prevent fires !!?
Easy find when I spotted some tiny purple bits. Good park for an emergency wee too !
I'm a bit concerned about the seal on the container - but all contents appear to be dry. So must be ok.
Took Coin and will take it to the next WWFM in Melbourne before moving it on.

There's quite a bit of damage being done to plants around here. The cache was located eventually but I was reluctant to disturb it from its hole. Just as I left some dog walkers turned up so I was quite happy with my timing.
Thanks for showing me this little spot.

Took nothing, left some Magic Beans.
Both pleasantly surprised by the size and seclusion from the road, particularly the noise.
Good hide made a little tougher by the GPSr sending us around in circles. SHE found it easily once at GZ.

We are spending a couple of days in Berwick visiting family. We had a spare morning, so we decided to duck out and track down some local caches. This was the second last of the morning.
Great little patch of bush in here. We parked off the road, and wandered to GZ. Plenty of birds around this morning. Green, red, blue and yellow parrot looking things. (You can tell Steve isn't an avid bird watcher)
We found the cache quickly, as it was partly exposed. Still in great condition, and we hid it better when we left.
No swaps - thanks for the cache.

This is my first cache find. Had a bit of time after dropping my son off at childcare and as this one was close i thought i would give this a crack. Took me a bit to work out what i was looking for, but found it eventually.
Now my addiction will start.

Decided to find a few caches en route to our friends in Emerald. A lovely park spoiled by the noise of traffic on Wellington Road. T: The spinning flashing thing L: Highlighter pen and Kelloggs (UK) reflector.
1504. With rain dripping from the trees this place was a really nice place to be today. Wandered around aimlessly and eventually found the cache a la Irish minesweeper. All good though.

Found last week on a visit to my lovely grandma near Emerald. Piggysue found first and then rehid and made me find it myself. Had to nearly stand on it to find it though! Don't know how I kept missing it. TFTC. Used to have picnics here as a kid. Piglet
Found in company with Piglet* after visiting a relative in Emerald. Was well hidden but when we found the spot it seemed strange we hadn't found it sooner. TNSL Left TB Katteker to continue his Australian adventure although his ownwers wanted him to travel Europe. I think he'll enjoy the bush setting. Thanks for the cache.
There's nothing like searching around the bush in the dark looking for caches. Luckily we had a brilliant almost full moon.
We took a frog and left a high lighter and Milawa cork.

Number 2 of 5 today. I missed the turn for this one twice. First I continued on to cache #1. Second there was a car too close behind me. 3rd time's a charm. I never knew this place existed. Another easy find. Nice large one! Cherieboberry exchanged TB's. We signed the log.
Our first cache and first find! Looked up the coordinates on google maps, saw it was just up the road from home and headed out to find it. Looked seemingly everywhere for it and was just about to abandon the search when we finally stumbled across it. Great buzz to finally find a cache. Signed log as ECrucis and Zoinker. TNLN TFTC.
Went looking for this with a mate (Zoinker). This was our first find, found at about 12:20pm, was nicely hidden. TNLN TFTC.
Found at 15.30. Very good camouflage,took about 15 mins to find as EPE was not good, stood still for a moment and I was standing on it ! Contents damp, so gave the cache some fresh air and sun while I had a coffee and smoke. Took some pics for Parts to Parts TB's album.

We too had dropped in to look for this one a few months ago. Having seen that it had recently been confirmed as active, we decided to give it another go today. Yep, there it is! We're now glad to have found it. Nice hide - not really what we expected. TNLN & SL at 4:20pm. TFTC!
Oh, I forgot to mention that we added a blank logbook to the cache. Regards, 38degsouth.
Called past to pick up the faith TB as I had been contacted by the TB owner who wanted to get it moving again, Looks like I was beaten to it. I picked up the Geo coin instead.
Ok found this one on my second attempt, havent encountered many of these style caches, it kinda threw me. Thanks for checking though evil. TFTC. took holy lands TB.
Well firstly, apologies i didn't get back in the next few days as i said.
The sticker had come of the container and alas i have no more stickers.
However, the cache is intact and in good condition, and it is exactly where it's supposed to be.
The log book only has a couple of pages left in it.
Could the next person please whack in a log book if they get there before i get there again.
Enjoy.

Will try and get out there in the next few days to double check on it. Unlikely to have been muggled as it is seldom used park, however stranger things have happened.

Went looking for this one, think it may have been knicked by a muggle, definately was not where the clue indicated, and found the green geocaching.com sticker on the ground near GZ. Owner may have to double check. Cheers

Thanks, Robmc.
Thanks, Robmc.
Had a bit of trouble locating this one but once found we wondered what the fuss was about. I think the hiding method here influenced our thinking on a later cache and made what should have been an easy find hard but still, all good.
It is a nice little park but one that wouldn't get too many visits I suspect.

24rd find of the day at 3:45pm. Accompanied by Feathertop on our Eastern Suburbs for a day Bash. We had trouble finding this one then had a look at some last finds and found out this was an old school style cache and it was soon discovered. TNLN, Signed Log, Thanx Em_Eagle and Evil_Hitman....
28th find of the day in the company of Oenze. We searched unsuccessfully for a while before Oenze read the logs and the word Traditional hide leapt out and I then knew straight away where to look. TNLN thanks for the cache.
Some time after the Penguins it would appear. Spent too long searching intently around specific trees before broadening my search and finding the stash like others have by standing on it (after walking over it) in its logical hiding spot. Took cow, left lizard. thanks Erm_Eagle and Evil_Hitman. Purple? Lilac I'd say!
Found this afternoon by the full Penguin Clan on the way home after a magnificent Christmas lunch with the extremely senior Penguins, who live nearby. A lovely little hide - thanks. We have also driven past many times without stopping before. In: Highlighter and one of our calling cards; Out: Geocoin. TFTC!!!
3:56pm Stopped by with Little Wombat Hill TB for a visit and to say good bye to our new friend, the Frog. Wombat Hill thought he deserved a medal for all his hard work searching for the cache.

Last one for a night, thought it would be a quick find but the Satelittle gods gave up and went to bed and the hint had me puzzled as to how you could hide a cache like that... until oh I see "Old School".
Nice size cache well stocked, thanks for reminding me to think outside the box.
Dropped in coin otherwise TNLN.

Despite the map I made earlier in the day for a trip to the Emerald library being COMPLETELY wrong, managed to find the general location without too much issue.
Finding the cache itself though, took some time. Even the hint suggested we were close to the mark. In the end, the swaps bag was put down on top of the cache before any one actually noticed or found it.

Thank you Mr Tom Tom. We normally fly past this park without even noticing it until today. Not a lot of parking area either. Anyway we went down into the park and the GPS led us on a merry chase. After walking around in circles for a while, we resorted to the clue. Hmmm there seems to be quite a few large trees about as well. After a while we also almost tripped over the cache.
Took soft toy rabbit.

18 months after failing to find this on my own in the pouring rain, I came back and found it in 3 minutes in the company of brother in law and 2 nephews. I used to go to school just across the road, so I'm probably one of the few people who actually did know about this rather nondescript little park! TNLN. Thanks Em Eagle.
