Found it but the log book is ruined by water and the plastic bags are ripped and the container is broken
Nice place for a cache, shame the log book is so ruined we could not write in it! Will be back when a new log book is here

The container is occupied by all sorts of creatures, so we left them alone without signing. I had to convince my friend that not all ivy species are poissonous Thank you
Stopped by here on our way up to Dandenong Skyhigh during our daytrip to the area. What a wonderful view, and nice meadow to walk in! Thanks for showing us here! Greetings from Sweden
(Logbook is wet, we could sign it with a pencil with some difficulty but it could need some TLC)

Found it! After Muggle Heather and I enjoyed coffee and a chat at the nearby cafe we crossed the road without getting run over to take in the view! We wandered down to GZ and soon had the cache in hand! The log book was completely saturated and almost unusable! Might come back in the next week or so and fix up the cache. Would be good to keep this one going!! TFTC SL
Nice park p beautiful view!
There's a hole in the container and the contents are all wet, so I couldn't sign the scroll

A warm day for wandering around the hills. This was convenient because it is close to the carpark, and today the muggles didn't seem to be interested in going too far from their cars! Nicely hidden...
This was one of the caches on our shortlist to find while on our way to Alex, cache was a quick find before headed Northeast.
Thanks for the cache.
After agreeing to go to my first mega with Goose of Gooseandegg it was soon clear it was to be a big trip to the mainland from Tassie, after both our wives declined to join us for the trip we started our planning picking out a few caches that we should work on before we headed over Bass strait, puzzles and wherigos were where we needed to start.
Many many hours were spent on puzzles and getting ourselves to locations so we could work on a couple wherigos took its toll on our cars and in my case my body.
Three weeks before the Mega me and Mrs SSRat were out caching in the northwest of Tasmania, and I fell and broke some ribs so for a bit the Alex trip was in doubt, in the end the trip was on but tree climbs were out of the question.
In the end we had a great long weekend finding some great caches and filling in couple of missing dates for our calendar’s, thanks to all the CO's for putting and maintaining all the caches we found.

I stopped here back in January with my family but it was crowded so didn't risk trying to find this. Today I was back with stainless steel rat as we take Friday to get ourselves to the Megs via a few chosen caches. This one was a calendar month filler for him so was a must do cache. After admiring the view for the shortest of times we made our way quickly to GZ. A nice little geotrail led us to GZ and a quick find. Thanks Team Actioncow! It;'s great to see your first cache is still going strong.
We ordered lunch at the Destiny Point Cafe and while we waited for it to come out I darted off for the cache. A quick find here.
Cache all good.
Thanks

Since moving from New Zealand I have been enjoying the area, exploring and finding caches.
So far I’ve knocked off 4 of the states. VIC, SA, NSW and A.C.T
No two areas are the same here and almost every place I go is stunning. The beauty of caching is that it takes you to so many places you would never usually find.
Thank you to all the cachers out there for hiding and maintaining their caches. Especially to those who put so much effort into creating unique and fun hides.
The caches I’ve found in Australia so far have for the most part all been in great condition. Keep up the good work.

I've seen the view from the top many times, but never been down into the park.
I parked up the top then walked down to find this one. Easy find as there is a geo-trail to it, nice sheltered location compared to the busy sight-seeing at the top.

Ashamed to admit I didn’t know this place existed... thanks for the cache and thanks for opening my eyes here.
Yay! It's spring! But we found this in a drizzle of rain... not too hard although the GPS bounced all over the place. Loved the view and the daffodils in full bloom further into the park, very colourful! Dropped off a TB. TFTC.
Headed over the border with Purrfect Di, Sebastbat, Jack and muggle Alex.
Cache was easier to find than we thought it would be in the greenery,
and the views were magnificent.
TFTC Team Actioncow!

Beautiful misty day in the Dandenongs! Found the cache but didn't have a pen and wasn't keen to hike back up the hill. TFTC
Been meaning to stop and get this one for ages - such a beautiful view, even on this cold, blustery day. Geokid 4 ventured down with me and made the find. We left a soccer TB. Cache container has been nibbled by creatures in the corner, but log is dry. TFTC
Fine weather and public holiday = lots of muggles. They eventually moved on and we made the find.
Another Sunday morning, and another training hike in preparation for Kili. Today it was the lovely Dandenong Ranges. It was a solo walk due to the others having commitments, so it was going to be a long walk of 23+kms all up, and more than 20 caches.
8th cache for the day, and it is a great view. At the GZ there was flowers, so we weren't too sure what that had to do with this spot. They appeared about a week or so old. Finally found the cache. Thanks for the cache.

Nabbed with the geokid on a glorious day out. We admired the view, dodged some muggles and took the TB. Tftc
On our way to spend time together melandphill and family came here for the serenity and views. we parked at the first carpark realising that we could walked down from the look out. Lots of muggles today. There was a couple of poeple walking down the hill and a few of my family members running down too then rolling.
A path lead us to the cache and also a few floral tributes. I popped a trackable inside. There was lots of worm poop in here. I think the container might need to be replaced soon and the log book wasa little damp.

Nice and easy this cache. Small path lead straight to it. A hole in the cache itself but otherwise not too bad.
Crack in cache jar means loss of bugs inside. Gloves come in handy. Nice spot for sure.
0n a miserable and very windy day the view was hardly moooving but the area is certainly spectacular. Not many muggles out braving the weather and after a short stroll geowife went straight to the cache - the cache trail helped. TFTC.
Once I had made my way uphill from where I parked the car, the cache was quickly found.

On a rare date weekend and what else would we do but come caching in this beautiful location!
We've not been here before and loved the chance to experience the natural beauty here.
We had lunch nearby earlier today and we're going to attempt the find. For some reason we didn't, and spent most of the day exploring the beautiful area.
When we came back, we parked in the lower car park and made the strenuous trek up the hill.
After cursing ourselves for not attacking this one from the top, we made the quick discovery of the cache- and we're even happier with he discovery of a TB that we grabbed to help move along.
Log signed and cache replaced as found.
Thanks again for bringing us here and for the spectacular views!

What a beautiful afternoon to head out for a cache (or four) with lovely friends. I've lived down the hill for 14 years and I've never stopped at this lookout!! What a view! This cache was the first of three that showed us through this incredibly beautiful park. Thanks for bringing us here.
Thanks for making us leave the crowds at the viewing platform and venture into this park. This was the first of three caches that took us down and around Kalorama Park.
#234 - 2.00am
Was enjoying a quiet drive when I remembered this view. Not much to see at this time of night - except perhaps the cache that lives here!
Popped down to GZ. The wind was building now so that the giant trees were starting to throw debris about. The hint made it a quick retrieval. Nice logbook but was showing past signs of dampness. Maybe because it was stored in an open ended freezer bag. I raced back up to the car. Yup, I had a seal bag made to measure! Happy to sign and return with an upgrade. Much better
Thanks Team Actioncow! for a cache in an incredibly picturesque setting. However I missed the view tonight. But at least I didn't have any tourists to dodge!

A nice little stroll with 88Andy88. This cache container is damaged and is now letting in water. The zip lock bag is doing an admirable job and trying to keep the log dry. For the most part, the zip lock bag is winning this war at the moment, but unfortunately its only a matter of time. CO may want to check this.....
I rescued a geocoin from this cache....

Found @12:15 PM After a hectic morning on computer and making calls the doc rang me and decided for me that we would head out in the chilled air and get some of it into out lungs. Dr Day1976 gets the thumbs up again . Just what we needed to get away from it all.
So this was our 2nd for the day and a liesurely little walk with the view of a lifetime in the background .
Cache container is damaged but still signable. Log is getting damp now though.

Nice and easy. Never been down here before despite driving past hundreds of times.

Steve & Erin taking our little puppy for a walk and your cache bought us to this location
Got it at last!! I can't count the number of times I have driven past this spot, but there have always been too many muggles in all the wrong paces. Today,however, everything was in my favour. It was raining and very cold,and the mountain had it's head in the clouds. Not a muggle to be seen on this side of the road, just a quick and easy walk by cache to finally turn this little green dot on my map into a smiley. Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.
Stopped on way up to Miss Marples for tea and scones with Dad. Lovely view from here, took some snaps then scampered down and quickly located. The only find for the day, as it then started raining and hasn't stopped and I came unprepared for the wet. TFTC
Successful find. Wear long pants! With wanderinfree, iaintconformist and alice
Fantastic find, great view, be careful if prickles. Left a trackable we found in Ocean Grove over Easter.
This cache actually had this Smurffina travel bug in it but it looked to have lost its tracking way. I have corrected the tracking and will be taking it to beautiful Gippsland for further travels. Smurffina has been going since 2010.....Wow!
Very nice view on our drive through the mountain drive. Found quite easily and left a travel bug. It has been far and wide please help it further in its travels. Tyftc.
Never realised there was a cache here, even though I've been past millions of times! This was a quick find with few muggles around. TFTC!
Great view. A few tourists around here marvelling at it. We scrambled down the hill and made the quick find, with the tree for cover from muggles. Thanks Team Actioncow for making us stop here. It's the kind of place that if you are travelling northwards, you might not be able to notice the view until you have passed the turnoff!
Nice little stroll up the hill from my parent's place in Montrose the other day! Shame about the intense heat! Tnln Tftc.
Nice quick find after work. Was a wet day so muggles in the area were a minimum so I thought I'd stop to get this one. Unfortunately both the travel bug and the geocoin that are currently logged in this cache are not in the cache and a corner of the container has a hole in it and there was some water inside the cache.
Found at 17:59 hours at the end of our 15.5km walk. What a lovely place to start and finish our walk. I must admit that by this point my friend had lost interest geocaching for the day. Though I really felt that I couldn't leave without having a crack at finding a cache from 2004! Indeed I've probably walking right by it a few times since then. Thanks for the cache.

Have had this one on my list for a long time. Grass is a little long today, was looking for lizards with no legs every where . Easy find.
Thanks guys....nice view
