Great take on a typical multi point cache.Beware there is a new paved road that has been put in since this this was created, so you must ignore one intersection. But it is obvious when you look at the proposed distances.
Loved the walk around Jells park. Ive walked and cycled around the lake so many times but had never been along some of the trails this cache led me on. First attempt was done in the near dark and I ended up with the wrong numbers for the final coords. A second daytime visit fixed it up and cache was located easily.
Another day another bunch of caches to find.... so Buhfuhguh, what is the plan for today. Well it is rather simple really, go out, pick up some caches before meeting up with some friends and going out into the city tonight for a local card tournament. With work finishing early, I had a good 2 hours up my sleeve and decided to use it for my geocaching shenanigans. All in all the caches in this run were nice and smooth and I enjoyed my trip out on this beautiful summers day. Thanks for the cache and the little adventure.
Great little challenge which Ive taken a few trips to finish. Needed to stretch my legs after a long week, so this was a perfect wander as the sun sinks toward the horizon. Great measurements and the treasure hunt was fun. TFTC and challenge.
17:09The Christmas purchase I was sent to collect might not have been in stock, but I got to take a walk in Jells Park.This was the main reason for my walk... and it was fun, keeping an eye on the starting point while following directions.And another partial lap for good measure, with a nice quick find.Thanks, Rabbitto... I love visiting caches that have stood the test of time. Especially when they're something different.#8059
Ive been looking at this multi for close to 5 yrs as my daughter play netball here and Im in the area twice a week and all weekend with sporting commitments!Truely happy to get a smilie here! TftcLog is nice and dry!
Been meaning to do this cache since my first visit back to my parents place in 2013. I used to come to this park when I was little with my dad. This was truly an epic geocaching adventure. Saw a beautiful kookaburra and took photos and was chased by a zombie chicken looking bird not far from here. In the end the cache was an easy find and Im glad that I did it. Definitely gets a favourite point. The COs caches are fun.Thank you Rabbitto for the cache.
We’re minding our neighbours dog for awhile and needed a new area for her walk today. Jells Park fit the bill nicely. We came prepared, with not just one printout, but two. I usually have trouble following directions, but Steve’s pretty good, so with the dog in tow, off we all marched, left, right, Jelli-Mite.
The excellent, clear instructions (which even I could follow) had us at the final intersection in no time and then a short walk to GZ to make a nice quick find.
Loved this multi Rabbitto and so did the dog. Thanks for the fun.

I was in the general area getting some information on a Virtual Cache that I’m working on and after getting what was required I decided to look for a couple more caches as I’m not over this side of town very often as I need a cut lunch to make it all this way from home.
I’m also chasing some multi’s to get my tally up.
I printed this one out before coming over as I did not want to stuff this one up.
A few lefts and a few rights then maybe some more and I eventually had what was required to look for this one.
This is a great park to walk as I had left the Geowagon at the netball centre.
Soon came across the cache and added my name to the log.
Thanks Rabbitto TFTC

I was not sure whether to undertake this challenge as I know how bad I am with directions. My muggle husband agrees. I printed out the instructions and stayed focused and did not have to backtrack once. Great stuff. At GZ the cache was found speedily.
This one was smaller than the usual regulars we find. Made a mistake in working coords all out so had to backtrack and correct it. ️Thanks
This grand old cache had a nice empty slot waiting for it in my Jasmer grid. Last time we were here we had planned to grab this one too, but the 2002 cache on the lake took us longer than expected.
Today on Easter Saturday we had planned to visit the Wheeler’s Hill Farmers Market, but couldn’t find it anywhere. Maybe it’s not running anymore since covid??
But the silver lining was the chance to choose our own Jelli-mite adventure!
This was a fun walk. Very clear and frequent intersections meant it all ran very smoothly. We did wonder where you would end up if you made the wrong choices though…
I also liked the overall design, in that the route was more-or-less circular, and before too long we were back in familiar territory with the cache in hand - albeit now a small rather than the listed regular sized one.
TFTC Rabbitto, and for keeping it going for over 17 years!

TFTC! A really lovely walk this afternoon. The weather managed to hold off, we completed some of caches along the way!,After reconnecting to the path we were following the instructions a long the way, make a quick stop at the final intersection, made some calculations, and a final walk to the GZ. Really great multi with a twist and we really loved it!
Catching up with a friend over this side of town for dinner so I headed over a little earlier to avoid the traffic and have a few pre dinner snacks…. I mean caches .
I had 20mins left before dinner around the corner so I picked this multi for the day. Oops, I probably should have looked a bit deeper at what was involved. I was already committed so I sent an sms that I would be slightly late and kept following the path. I finally started to head back towards the car and found the final piece of information to conplete the coordinates. GZ was thankfully a quick hide and I made it to dinner 7mins late. I quite enjoyed this mutli. Cleverly done!
Thanks Rabbitto for placing this gamepiece in the wild for us to find.

How hard is it to do just one cache when there are a number around. Luckily, this cache took quite some time . We messed up somewhere but eventually had the cache in hand. Thanks for the stroll around here and for placing and maintaining this cache for so long.
I had attempted to work this out from home but wasn't very successful. Papi4506 needed to get a multi today and as we weren't going to be too far away, this was the one we chose. So hard to only get one though. Anyway, we took some time to get to GZ but eventually made the find. Thanks for keeping this cache going for so long.
Out with the geokids trying to work off some of the Christmas over-indulgence at the new playground nearby here. This was a nice walk around Jell's, and then on to the final hide. TNLNSL, TFTC Rabbitto!
Great walk around lake, extra kms when we had to go back and retrieve kids from the great new playground before continuing! Tftc!
A very enjoyable walk, checked out the new playground along the way, looked at lots of birds and puddles and trees. TFTC!
Out for our walk at Jells Park and what better way to walk around the park than following the instructions for this multi cache. Instructions were easy to follow and we were able to make a quick easy find. Being mid-week there was no Muggles around which made retrieval quite easy. Cache was in good condition. TFTC. TNLN.
Beautiful walk around Jells Park. Don’t be fooled by the new concrete paths built with the Playscape playground - these aren’t included in this cache.
TFTC!
TFTC!
It made me walk all around the Jells Park.
Then I found the geocache, the condition of the cache is great because the log was dry.

This isn't the first of your caches we have done on our bikes. This was a ripper that had us scooting along. A muck up at the final waypoint was corrected and a super GZ location had us pedalling off for the find.
Having a great day out with Geokid trying to clear out Jells Park of finds.
Thanks for the maze.

With the Covid 19 restrictions altered last weekend it meant that I could now meet up with my daughter and grandsons. We chose Jells Park to do this. I arrived before our agreed time as I thought this multi would be a nice walk before spending time with family. Very clear instructions made this an easy and fun cache to do. When I got to the last of the pathways I saw my daughter arriving to the park. Great timing!
Luckily for a digger working on a new playground I was able to steer the family/grandson in the direction of GZ and then make the find. Enjoyed this walk and find very much. Fav point for such a great thought out cache. Thank you

On a multi mission for a challenge- not even halfway as the aim is a whopping 500! Since I’m keen to start running again this little ‘jellimite’ is perfect with its stops to check out directions! On an unknown route was fun although I did wonder if the swollen flooded creeks would foil the plan. Quick happy find at GZ TFTC
Awesome journey through Jells Park. Brought the dog for the wander, and wasn't disappointed. Fave point added for the adventure TFTC!
Found after a fair bit of walking. Sounded like there were a lot of frogs around today although we couldn't actually see any of them. TFTC
Man was this a bit of a run around! This is obviously an oldie where people spent half a day on a multi and weren't swamped by options. Grabbed this listening to the Kookas just after the rain settled. Now off to Homburgs to party on! Cheers, beautiful park here.
Today we found Left, Right, Jelli-mite on our travels. We dropped the youngest Earthbound off at an escape room in Glen Waverly earlier and decided to have a little adventure of our own.
Thanks Rabbitto for being part of our geocaching fun.

15 Sep 2019: Streak Day #199/366 (1 March 2019 - 29 February 2020). Fortunately, I have a bike with me and made a good find at GZ, it was fun. A lot of people here for walking, jogging & set up the parties. Thanks Rabbitto for placing the cache.
Well after completing a few others in the area I thought this one was going to be a quick one to finish with. Ooops. Definately would have been nice to have the bike for this one but still enjoyed the walk. I did question a few times if I had selected the correct option but stuck with the path and it led me to where I needed to be. I am sure the person doing thai chi wondered about me as much as I did about what they were doing. Soon I was off to GZ which was, unfortunately, the opposite way to where I had parked on this occasion.
Oh well. Was a nice walk and fun cache.
All in good condition.
Thanks Rabbitto for the cache.
Found at 5:42 pm on 8/8/19.

This was a very interesting multi cache. The fact that I couldn't actually see any details in c:Geo just made it that little bit more interesting.
We started this multi running between points, however after it taking us to a dirt path, we ran around the entire lake before going back to the start and discovering that we missed a corner in our haste.
After going for another 5 kilometer run first, we than went back to the start and used this multi cache as a cool down stroll.
Can't believe how many times we ran past the final without knowing.

We are targeting multis at the moment and Jells Park seems to have more than its fair share, so we made the excursion out here. As soon as I started reading the description for this one I knew that I would like it - and I wasn't wrong. What a terrific concept. We took a couple of detours to gather clues and finds for another multi, but had no problems returning to our mission and no problem with the counting at intersection I. The only problem we seemed to have was the heat - the adults in TeamUs! suffered - the geobrats were quite relaxed... The cache was easily found - of course it is there! A favourite point for us as we realise that Rabbitto has no control over the weather and the concept behind this one is simple brilliant! Love it. TFTC
Good clear directions and a very warm walk but had no problems at GZ. Thankfully I also know my left from my right - most times.
Never been to this park before. What a little gem hidden away.

After a rather long walk around the park, I eventually was at the correct spot to obtain coordinates for GZ. I soon had a set of coordinates worked out and headed towards them to make a find. The park was busy today, but thankfully it is a large park so I was able to get gaps between muggles! Thanks so much for placing this cache Rabbitto
TFTC Rabbitto- wouldn’t usually wander away from the netball. Such a brilliant spot to stroll

Yesterday I jumped on the bike for the first time since July and it felt good to be out and about. Today I felt like I had to get out and I focussed in on 4 multi's around Jells park. I knew that they would send me all over the place...A great chance to get a bit of exercise.
I really enjoyed this cache. It was definitely a fun. There were a lot of muggles around but it was easy to follow the directions...after deciphering...them.
A quick find at the GZ. TNLN. TFTC.

I think you have become my favourite CO rabbitto, your caches are so clever and unique. I loved doing this multi today,it was a beautiful day and the park was pumping with happy people playing in the sunshine. Thanks for the lovely walk and the great fun! A fave from me
Accompanied with crank1 for caching day. Nice weather. Puzzled solved. Found it. Thanks Rabbitto for the multi cache.
We lefted and righted or was it righted and lefted... whichever it was we got to the final intersection then off and found the cache. Signed the log TFTC.
A planned meet up with Riddell brought us to this park to complete as many of these multis. This was our first one and after gathering the necessary information it wasn’t long before we were both signing the log. TFTC
It all started with a plan...
Together with Jascat, the objective was to do as many of the Multi caches around Jells Park as possible after work, starting at approximately 4 pm.
This was number one.
We followed the instructions carefully and after a short stroll, soon had the cache in hand and logged.

A muggle had decided to have a long phone call about 80 metres from this one but fortunately it was around the bend and I could make the find without being spotted. Tftc took tb
I had long unfinished business with another cache in the park, so I thought I'd get his one and visit the other one too. I parked on the east side, so it was a bit of a walk to the start of the cache. The actual finding of the cache went very smoothly, though it took a while and I felt in a couple of places a little like I was wandering past the same places a couple of times...
Thanks for the cache, a nice walk in a nice park.

Worked this one out a couple of days ago on my lunch break came back today to find it nice and quickly first find for the year thanks for the walk around this great park, unfortunately I didn't have any swag as this cache is a bit light on
Nice day for a find. Must admit I worked this one out at home so made for a short walk. Thanks for this cache and you efforts in keeping the game alive. Fav added
With all of the rain yesterday, I was getting cabin fever. We decided to head for a walk around Jells Park, and as we went past this area I decided to do the multi. On the walk around you could see the damage that had been inflicted, and a number of paths had suffered from flooding. The cache itself was fine and wasn't suffering from the downpour. It turned out that I didn't have a pen... but I did have a safety pin. Have scratched a mark in the log and will sign when I am back in the area. TFTC. Great little multi!
I found this on a night I organised with the rest of the Mahonga Venturers. It was an extremely well placed cache, and a great idea for the trail up to it
TFTC, It made a great Activity for the Venturers of the 1st Rowville Scouting group

Found.
nicely hidden. Hope I didn't hid too much.
Did up to D then I read the rest of the direction and I went to the end to get the numbers (I run past that spot lots of times)

I'd looked at this multi some time ago and decided that it was too involved and left it at that. Go figure!?
Today I went back and followed the instructions. Indeed if someone were to ask me how I'd characterise hides by the CO I'd say: a. well thought out, b. therefore enjoyable and c. full of instructions. I suspect the CO might even have a background in orienteering or some such overlapping hobby due to the directional way finding in many of his hides.
A pleasant walk through this part of Jells Park. It would have been even more pleasant but for the extremely windy conditions. No matter, just kept an eye out for falling branches.
Thanks Rabbitto. Looking forward to trying out your other proximate multi....

A chilly walk in the afternoon to retrieve our cache of the day! Wound up walking the long way and sent Zedaycee to get the Geomobile to the end of the shorter path! It might start raining any minute now!
This was a great walk thru a park i hadn't been to in years. Nice to be back here. tftc. With Zedaycee and Angelique Anja.
Appeared in the area after lunch and encountered a swarm of muggles. It is both Easter Sunday and Greek Easter combined, so plenty of families about. The place smelt like a BBQ, which was very enticing, and we began to crave BBQ meats and fried onions in white fluffy bread with lashings of tomato sauce! We followed the instructions, and got to XYZ, but had to then search for the plaque which was covered over. At GZ Geomum opened up log book and saw our own mark already there...hmmm...something fishy has gone on! We apparently had already signed the logbook two years ago?! Huh! But there was no online log. Oh well, we signed again and filling out online now. Some serious twilight zone business going on here. Thanks for the different sort of cache Rabbito, and for adding another rare multi to our collection.
We had lots of fun doing this cache today on the bikes. Somehow, we made it to the final intersection with no backtracking or mistakes. We had to search for the plaque as it was buried under mulch, but got the numbers after some careful searching. At GZ, the cache was all fine, and we were pretty happy with ourselves for finding it. Great idea for a cache, loved it. Thanks Rabbitto.
Today we left our nomadic hometown (all caches found) to head to Melbourne (cache heaven) for a long weekend , to party with so many caches that would take years to clean up, even if you lived here. Wow this was an epic multi! We thought we would finish off with "Just one more" before leaving the park and heading back to our accommodation for the night and this one intrigued us. We followed the instructions without any mishaps (thankfully) and arrived at our final intersection where Z, Y, X were noted. After the simple maths we now had our GZ. The cache was found easily and in good condition.
Thanks Rabbitto for the unusual way of making this multi, we did enjoy it. A favourite point added.

Walked the path with the Mini-Welders last night. But it was too dark to find the cache.
Returned today. Great weather lead to countless muggle picnics hereabouts. At least, GZ was away from most eyes so we didn't have to wait long for a window of opportunity.
Emeylo made the quick find here, with Dynamo and The Blue Minion following at her heels.
Thanks Rabbitto for a fun multi that helped tire out the kids, lol.

Myths are lies that tell the truth so if you’re feeling like you’re standing at a crossroads in your life be sure to check the computations that the Chiefton makes else you will be back to walk that path another day!
When you put your trust in an others hands you must be prepared to take the good math with the bad and never criticize the things that are beyond your on capabilities!.
Besides its great exercise!!

This is the second visit to collect this one.
A calculation error saw us searching a long way from the actual position.
For some reason I didn't check my sums. The search location didn't seem right either.
Once the mistake was found (later that night), we had to go back. It was in a much more logical position than we had been.
It was a great cache. A little bit different. The instructions seemed complicated but once you started it made complete sense.

Last week walked the walk to find the area to work out coordinates. This week armed with the coordinates short stroll from the netball courts before scoring for a match found it spot on target. Cache dry after heavy rain.
Earns a favourite point for the planning and hide. Since the traditional caches are scarce more people should try this one.

Found while hitting a few caches in Jells Park this morning. This one has had me thinking that I must try this one when I have a hour or two free to take my time and follow the instructions carefully, I had the assistance of omegaman1971 to help tackle it and after a couple slip ups we soon had it sorted and were rewarded with a quick find, thanks Rabbitto for the fun multi and hide.

After doing a few caches this morning already through wet grass, the feet are getting a little cold! But was great to find this one just off the path.

Gee, this one hasn't been found very often lately, has it? It's quite good though, dear reader, and rather distinctive, so don't hesitate. The instructions here were actually even easier to follow than I was hoping, as the distances cited seemed to be right on the mark. The final, coded disclosure of the cache coordinates was easily dealt with and the cache was found not too far away. I'm not really sure why I'm casually stumbling on your caches so frequently lately, Rabbitto, but I'm glad that I am. Thanks!
I'd never done a cache like this before, very clever. Thanks for the stroll around this nice park, and making me work for it!
It's just a jump to the left.
And then a step to the right.

You bring your knees in tight.

They really drive you insane.

Curriculum day at kinder today so Hera and I decided to hit Jells Park to keep both the little and big people happy. After completing a couple of other caches on foot we decided it was best to tackle this one with the 2 mini cachers on wheels. I really loved the whole concept and set up of this cache. Hera was in charge of the compass and I had the instructions up so it was a real team effort. The kids rode their scooters to the junctions and awaited instructions. They generally did pretty well but it was a long way for little legs, especially after doing two caches previous to this and stopping to play on playgrounds. Hera and I, however, appreciated the walk after not getting much exercise lately. GZ brought us to a spot that we had walked past a few times already today. My son kept telling us we had been walking in circles when he repeatedly recognised the same areas throughout the morning. The cache was a nice easy find. The kids made some swaps and we signed the log. Thanks for a really fun way to find a cache.
I loved the concept of this cache - something that I have not seen before. The Rusty's and I had our 2 youngest with us as it was a kinder curriculum day. We planned for this cache by bringing along the scooters and it worked a treat. The little boys were entertained by scooting, stopping a check out the ducks, stopping at a few playgrounds, stopping for a few toilet breaks, stopping to throw stones, stopping for . . . I can't even begin to remember what all the stops were for BUT we all had fun and we thrilled to make a straightforward find at the end of all those twists and turns. Brilliant way to find a cache.
My first multi-cache and it was amazing! Lovely idea, had a nice stroll and logged an easy find TFTC
The search for this cache resulted in a nice stroll around the park. The answers to the final questions were straightforward and the cache was quickly found. TFTC
Off to do some caching today with Geohubby and Geodog. We had a lot of fun doing this one while walking around the park. Nice idea and a quick find . TFTC Rabbitto
For my entire life, I have had a very scientific mind. One example of this is me walking around Jells Park as a child on only the cracks (or patched cracks), to prove that stepping on cracks does NOT breaks ones mothers back. I didn't attempt it today, as some of smaller trails around GZ aren't as bad as the main trails, but certainly enjoyed my walk. Thanks for the well thought out and interesting multi!
TFTC. Thanks for the walk around the park, it was good to get the exercise. Took the opportunity to drop of a TB that we picked up in NSW.

In this area for the next 3 weeks for a course and decided I needed some downtime tonight (and only day 2!) - good excuse to go caching.
After an initial head scratch over which way was south I tentatively set off. Got to the first intersection of paths and spent another 5 mins scratching my head figuring out if I was in the right spot. Got the hang of it quickly after that, gosh I never knew Jells park was so big! Thanks Rabbitto for the great cache

Had an hour or so while I waiting for a late night teleconference.
Thought I would shoot out for a jog and a geocache or two.
This was the last of three multis for the night.
Humid out but a good night for some exercise and fresh air.
This was painful to do but in a good way. Had been over the same trails a couple of times already on the night due to jogging and another multi so was gutted to have to re-run all over again. Very clever though and not too much difficulty in following the correct path. Retrieved easily and returned in good order.
First log entry for 2015!

I don't really want to admit this, but I had a brain fart at the start of this trail and my eyes read 'south' but my brain interpreted this as 'downhill' and thus, we headed north, got confused and somehow by following the original directions, we ended up at the point we should have been at had we gone south as directed. Thankfully, at that point, my intelligence returned and the geotoddler, geodog and I headed off in the correct direction. The gps was happy to be quite accurate today and we made a lovely circuit of Jells Park, saw duckies and cockatoos to the toddler's delight, and passed a pug to the geodog's disgust. We made it back to a point I'd passed by stupidly going north, calculated the gz and were off. An incredibly accurate gps reading (my phone is usually 5m out, stupid imported cheap thing) and made a very quick find. No muggles to disturb us, a quick signature and we were off back home. TFTC Rabbitto! A wonderful walk on a sunny morning and a favourite point from us!
I don't believe I have been to Jells Park before , so this was an excellent way to explore it. The place was absolutely checkers today with seemingly every family out her with Dad on Fathers Day, as well as a cycling challenge in progress. Cars were parked all along the roadways in no,standing areas as all the parking spaces were also full. Millions of muggles everywhere. No wonder as it was a lovely day to be out walking. Loved the ending which soon led to the cache. Thanks for a well constructed caxhe Rabbitto
Out with au.fait on Fathers Day, we had a beautiful walk around Jells Park. I have been here many times, and always enjoy it. A very interesting way to take you all over the park. Loved the concept, thanks Rabbitto
Someone (Rabbitto?) has a very circular sense of humour - thanks for a lovely long walk!
A really good enjoyable cach. But take ur hikeing boots. Really like the walk and cool puzzle.
Now that I see who the CO is, it all makes sense!
This is just what I needed today for a whole lot of reasons that I won't bore you all with now. Followed all directions and wandered around the park, passing Muggles here and there, and watching moor hens and ducks trampling everywhere. After a wonderful, but not too long walk, I reached the final and collected the required data. Another short walk had me sitting with the cache and signing the log. This really did clear my head and for that and for the planning, it receives a favourite from me.
Thanks again, Rabbitto.
