Adding a new ICEM cache in Burnie to keep the series alive. Parking is available near GZ, bring your own pen. If you're attempting this one after sunset you'll have to park on the street and walk to GZ as the gate will be locked from sunset to 7am, during daylight hours you can park closer and only have a short walk to GZ

Logs
Today as we head to Smithton we decided that we couldn't put it off any longer.
Lots of muggles in the car park and it was a relief when they headed the other way around the lake.
Didn't spot this one initially but Mr Beetle soon had it in hand.
Guess it's easier when you've found quite a few of these before.
Thanks Sharnie's Tribe.
A more thorough examination revealed the exc camouflaged cache which is in top nick.
Many thanks Sharnie's Tribe for the hide.......much appreciated and thoroughly enjoyed....cheers ST.
Excellent hide that needed a second glance.
Many thanks sharnie's tribe for your cache placement.
Thanks for this cache Sharnie's Tribe. A neat hide in a lovely little park. No time to explore further as the rumbles were getting closer. It is good to see more Tasmanian places being covered by ICEM cache hides.
