Description

It is made up of the locations made famous by Lucky Star in the song "I've been everywhere" in 1962, lyrics by Geoff Mack.

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

Have had this cache on our list quite a few times recently but always seemed to run out of time to stop and look for it.
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.

I didn't spot the hide initially but common sense said it had to be there.
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.

Caching in the area we found your cache along the way.

Excellent hide that needed a second glance.

Many thanks sharnie's tribe for your cache placement.

As the thunder rumbled around the hills Mrs y'stassie tried to find her way into this reserve. Her driving GPS wanted her to drive theough several private properties and across a pipeline to reach GZ. After one aborted attempt she found an entrance and was able to park close by. She waited for a number of walkers to hurry by before begining her search. She missed the container on her first pass but as she had seen nothing the second search was more thorough. She spotted the cleverly disquised cover and was soon adding our caching name to the blank log sheet. A {FTF} at 16:50.

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.
