I think we walked between 6 and 10 km's every day we were in the ACT. I know i have blister on my toes now. quick find.Found with Mogni. Myself and mogni are headed off to canberra on the " I missed the Capital GeoBash Mega " holiday, since last minute family problems came in to play and we had to adjust our plans by a few weeks. On the way over we targeted multi's, wherigo's and puzzles to make sure we had 25 in each or at least close to that total ( or more ) as possible, getting as many new New South Wales LGA's as possible, the 17th most favourite point NSW cache and every cache size in New South Wales.In the ACT it was getting 2 of the 5 oldest letterboxes, oldest wherigo in Australia, 2nd oldest earthcache ( with a side trip to get the oldest earthcache of course ), and ACT oldest cache too. I also hosted a CITO and planned on getting every different cache type i could and eevry different cache size as well. I also needed 9 more virtuals this trip to get my virtual count over 100. Finally canberra was far enough away from from house to complete the well aged well travelled cacher 0 to 1000 kms with a cache every 10 km's ( i only need 7 more caches to complete )Leaving the ACT it was going via Victoria to get there last active web cam cache and slowly getting a total of 20 finds in each LGA i passed through if i had enough time plus also hosting a CITO in Victoria as well. A busy 11 days. Trust me by the end of the holiday you would have thought the 6 meter ladder weighed more than 13 kg's to amount of times it was used or carried up hills or over creeks. If your cache was found with a broken container/lid it was replaced or if the log was full it was replaced or a extra log if the container was big enough ( except for nano's, do your own maintenance on nano's.

Day 4 of mogni and sir_spectre visit the ACT. Today was a mixed bag, we hosted a CITO which was quite well attended, got some great help with a few caches, and many offers of assistance if needed while visiting. Then off to get a range of caches, puzzle, multies and just other we were wandering past. We got back to our accomodation in the dark, feeling tired from a great day out and about. As per normal if a cache needed a bit of love, it got it. Lots of logsheets added today.Thanks to betchern0t from mogni

Another fantastic day here in Canberra, the locals have certainly turned the wonderful weather for the event, maybe they had a chat with the Lord Above. We had one DNF and the other 30 odd caches were all found. A couple of challenge caches that we do not qualify for but the we signed. The event was fantastic with loads of people to chat with. SL TFTC

Something special or unusual goes here:Yet another cache we found whilst cruising around today. The Generic Bit:The Capital Geobash Adventure 2024. Day 7: Cruising Canberra again Today myself, Anymules and Muff1 set out to try and find a few more caches. A lot of puzzles were solved over many months preparing for this trip so we wanted to grab a few of those. So we cruised around just following our noses and finding caches. Today we concentrated on completing the USG series of challenge caches and we did! ***Thanks betchern0t for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. *** Logs prepared and published through GSAK.

Today I planned to do the UGC series and anything else that was close by as we passed. I had Esmiley (driver) and Bellahappychappy with me (finders) and it was a very interesting and fun day. We got in a lot of caches and got all in the UGC series completed. While the competition of who qualifies and who did not between esmiley and bella rang out in the travels, it did make me laugh. It was nice to see that all the caches in the series were in place and in good condition and most with fresh logs. The extra caches we added to the list were from our solved lists. It was interesting to see how people solve caches. I had a fun day and had some great laughs, thanks for the hides

Betchern0t Puffed2.0/2.5 Micro Multi-cache Thank you for the cache Betchern0t.26 March 2024 12:15pm

Love it We are have made it to Canberra for the MEGA. Settled in for an awesome week.Log and container are in great health. Great hide Signed BHC

I find it interesting how this cache stands alone in a pretty unpopulated cache area, at least for Canberra standards. Started this multi on the bike today and certainly got quite a bit puffed going up all those hills, the views made up for it though, I think. Got GZ and made the cache find easily in the obvious spot. TFTC betchern0t!

Find#4258
Nice hiding place
Took 10 - 15 minutes to find
Thanks for the cache

I visited all the waypoints long ago and have had this solve up my sleeve for when I needed a multi. Today was the day to find this one and I was very happy it was a quick find. TFTC.

Well that was a tricksy multi with WP2 giving us some trouble. We had to PAF and managed to get to GZ. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache betchern0t

Well that was complicated. Thank goodness for PAF as we would still be stuck. Ended up being a quick find.
Thanks For getting me out and about betchern0t

Finally!!! This cache has eluded me for sooo long. Great to finally have my name in the log. Turns out my coords have been a little off this whole time - don’t know how I managed it. Today I expanded my search even more broadly than my usual broad hunt and was finally victorious. Phew. Thanks for the epic little adventure. Thanks for the cache.

text for wp2 rewritten to match new conditions

Out early morning with caching colleagues to pick up a handful of caches knowing that the rain was on its way.

Having tried this cache previously we reached out to a previous finder for WP2 which has been missing a while now. Decided to place a maintenance log to get this one corrected so that PAFs won’t be needed going forward from our find today.

Lovely walk and pleased that this cache is now completed after a quick find at GZ. TFTC Betchern0t.

This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.

Having tried this cache previously we reached out to a previous finder for WP2 which has been missing a while now. Decided to place a maintenance log to get this one corrected so that PAFs won’t be needed going forward from our find today.

Some morning caching across the border in northern Canberra with a buddy. Only resolved with the help of a previous finder as WP2 is missing. Thanks.

As with previous logs I hit an early roadblock at WP2 yesterday. Being on my needed hidden date list I was keen to proceed, so sent out a few requests for help. One thankfully was able to provide the info needed for me to continue on my way today. It wasn’t too long after that I reached the GZ and coordinates had me within 4m of the final goal. Cache container located, logged and replaced. Thanks Betchern0t for preparing this Multi.

Tftc and the exercise, GZ 17m out but still in terms of the hint so made the find after a short search

Dnf

When I got to WP2 and it wasn't there I was worried I wouldn't be able to solve this. I figured out 2 locations for WP3 but I didn't want to walk to both and then back home if I came up empty handed so I drove to one of them and found the large black numbers! It's obvious to me now that when Behemoth are around you'd be too scared to learn.
Off I went to WP4 and 5 and finally GZ where I tracked down the cache.
TFTC and the walk.

I needed to find a cache today and I asked Youban to come with me as I had worked on this a long time ago with a muggle friend. We walked up and down and around then got lost and so went to the shops for a pie then walked all the way back to the starting point.

I got gone and did a little research and thought I had an idea of where we went wrong and where GZ was. So I plotted a couple of waypoints to come back and check another day.

Today was that day. We parked a little ways down on the other side of the road and walked back up to whereabouts I thought and explained to Youban my thoughts and read them the hint. Next thing I know Mr Youban has the cache in hand and smiling “found it”!

That was satisfying to say the least. Tftc Betchern0t!!!

Out with Dty73 to do a couple of caches today. Not going to do much as the wind chill is horrible. Coords calculated and off to GZ for the find. Mr Youban had his caching eyes on and soon the log was signed and cache returned. TFTC. Kutgw

Needed to fulfill a day on my personal challenge calendars today.

In the hopes of getting to Gungahlin in daylight, I tried to leave work early….I should have known my plan was floored from the outset. Got to the first cache with still a bit of light but unfortunately I had to resort to a PAF before I made the find.

Having been here a couple of times before, I am very glad that I now have a yellow smiley. Just glad it wasn’t in torrential rain like last time. Log signed by torchlight. Now onto the next one for the day. Thanks Betchern0t. I think I’m getting close to finding all of yours.

Today I only needed this cache to satisfy all my personal challenges. It gives me great pleasure to over ride the sad blue face with a beautiful yellow smilie. It still took me some time to find the sneaky little blighter but the log now carries my name. It was so good to get out relatively early to find him and even better to get back home relatively quickly. TFTC Betchern0t SL

Had wandered around the week before collecting the required numbers. WP2 was an issue, the object no longer there. Fortunately a previous finder came to the rescue. Continued on and eventually worked out GZ , but the geokid needed to be picked up from footy training. Next time.

Back again today where the cache was found in the second place I looked. Signed and replaced it was almost time for footy training to finish again. TNLNSL TFTC

Sorry to say that after completing this multi that I desperately needed for my calendar, I spent at least half an hour looking "nearby" for this cache. I'm not sure if it is still the same size or if the hint still applies but I have come up empty handed.

new cache placed in near location

Argh no luck for Minniek and I today. Guess we’ll have to try another time. Sneaky little cache.

Out and about for a bit of caching with nibletricecakes this afternoon.

Unfortunately no luck for us today even after confirming GZ coords with a previous finder.

Streak Day #2628 - Out with Dave8153 to find this one. Took a little to find as we expanded our search and found it 19m out. TFTC

20 September 2020
This is find number: 4543
Streak Day: 1738

Found today with Snoopy1976, a short look around but found it in the end. Thanks

Thanks to betchern0t for placing and maintaining this cache.

TFTC

Quick find grabbed this on the way home after some hike up north with andrewbt.
Thank you Betchern0t for putting the cache out and maintaining it.

Good Multi... Good working out then zoom to GZ... thanks

For a cache that has been around for a long time, there are not a lot of names in the log in the last 7 years.

Maybe people just don’t like walking? Or perhaps it’s because it’s a multi with a lot of stages?

Who knows? Doesn’t bother me any more as it’s on my found list.

Thanks for the cache Betchern0t.
Found on 8/3/20 at 3:45 pm.
Find #10851.

Was in the area today with a bit of dust and wind, quick find placed back where it belong. TFTC Betchern0t

Yep, I'm well and truly puffed now. As I mentioned in my DNF, I came here last night but failed to find the clue at WP2. I then went on a big walk round in the hope of finding WP3 but had no luck. When I got back home, I did some investigations and with the help of a previous log, google maps and some logical deductions on the equations, I found WP2 and then WP3. Everything all fell into place. I had actually walked past all of the waypoints and GZ as well.

Tonight I returned and went straight to GZ. After a little bit of searching I had found the cache (daily cache #279). Oh the unloved points! Hard to believe no one has found this in 18 months. Then to satisfy my curiosity I went and verified WP3 and WP2. Now WP2 is an interesting one. I can see why I couldn't see it in the dark last night with my torch. But more importantly, what I saw tonight was different to what I saw on street view last night. The item at this spot has changed and it isn't the same colour as it used to be. The CO might need to update the description of this waypoint.

Next up, I wanted to verify WP5 so I decided to go the long way round, effectively following the route in reverse. So off I went, power walking at a fair clip. Eventually I made it to WP5 and found the spot and the number but I still didn't understand how it fit the hint. There was nothing in the air. It wasn't until I was walking past WP4 did I realise that the yellow things at no longer present at WP5 and that would've matched the hint.

So I actually ended up walking the route again tonight just for fun (and health). It was a lovely night and I definitely got my steps in.

TFTM!

Went for a big long walk tonight. Failed to get the required number at WP2 so I just tried to guess where WP3 would be and trotted off in hope. I followed what I expected was the right route but never found that black 4 digit number. When I got to the top of the hill I deemed my mission a failure and headed back to the car.

Since coming home I've done a bit of research and I believe I've figured out WP2 and where WP3 should be. Further research gave me coords for WP4, WP5 and GZ. It appears I walked right past all of them, especially WP3.

Ah so close. At least I got some good exercise. I shall return!

Went out for a bit of a walk with Trodectus.
The weather was improving over the previous days of sleet and biting wind.
The Behemoths did not hang around although you had to hang around to see one.
I thought the chaos monsters (Behemoth and Leviathan) were supposed to have been destroyed by god at the time of creation! [xx(][xx(][xx(]
This isn't done very often and seeing 2016 as the last logs before ours, had us hoping.
Unfortunately, it was just a mistake! (see picture of log).
We enjoyed this multi, and no difficulties with it, so I'm giving it a favourite. betchern0t [^][^][^]

Found with Decrypter. Even though it was a cool day with a cold wind, at least the sleet of the last few days held off. We had a pleasant time walking and visiting the way points, even the couple that were no longer needed for the final co-ords. We saw a few of the Behemoths out behemothing. Once at the final point it wasn't long before we had treasure in hand. TFTC, I'm giving it a fav.

Found with AngelG27 and TikvaNZ. The afternoon was just too nice. I wanted to get some sunshine & some exercise. My friends, who had already collected two multis, picked me up and we headed to WP1. We had an amusing conversation about what a behemoth might be (see cache description). Between WP1 and WP2 we were a little confused. In the end all good. Quick find at GZ. Thx Betchern0t!

Cache 2492 on 23/4/17

After doing a couple of multis on Mt Ainslie, TikvaNZ and I joined forces with ZQX to complete a couple more multis in Gungahlin. This was first off the rank - interesting approach to a multi for sure! But we figured out WP1 and enough to save some energy later, and ended up with the cache in hand at 1515....!

Thanks for the fun cache:-)

#7711 @1515
AngelG27, ZQX and I spent the afternoon doing the 2 Betchern0t multi-caches out this way. We were a bit puzzled for a short while at WP2, but after reading and re-reading the detail, we were on our way again. A quick find once we got to GZ. (We skipped WP5, having noticed as we neared WP4 that we didn't really need to go to either WP4 or WP5). TFTC.

Time to finally tick off this multi sitting in the middle of a cloud of smiley faces! I'm not sure why I haven't done this yet but I think its because I have never had time for a 3.5km walk or done other caches instead of this one!

Finally the time had come and I made my way through each waypoint fairly quickly!
Once I reached GZ it took a short search to find the cache tucked away in its little hidey hole. Nice spot that is

Thanks for another one of your multi's! Good morning walk to start my day

With the storm breaking overhead I did this one mostly by car. I liked WP2 - quite novel in my experience and although I got distracted by a flowering tree I quickly realised that was not the object I was looking for. I soon realised that not all WPs were required and I was very happy for that as I was not venturing out for a walk in this weather. Finals were calculated and I made a dash for it and found the cache quite quickly at GZ. Nice to have this multi ticked off. Surprised it doesn't get more visitors. Thanks betchern0t

Good

After failing at Gold Creek Homestead decided to give this one a go. Nice walk including a couple of hills I never new existed.
A few problems as there were two 6 digit numbers at the start however one soon discarded when I got a negative number in the calculations.
Nearly gave up at the next WP before figuring in out, and the one on Mt Mizar had me wondering for a moment. Worth a favorite. TFTC.

Thanks

cache found in correct location. Log checked for damp and ok

Did the way points. Noted that I didn't need to do them all. Got to gZ and checked all the nearby trees to no avail. Dnf

This waypoint was lots of back and forth! Spotted immediately when I realised where it was. I was planning to put a cache nearby, given how nice an area is, but it might be a bit crowded. TFTC

Wow, this cache hasn't been found since September last year; over eight months ago. I feel then I should let you know that the log and cache are in good condition and dry.
The sun came out after the rain and gave a pleasant afternoon of caching, going from way point to way point. The view of Black Mountain was lovely and clear after the rain. I was a little unsure that I had the right object in sight at WP2, as I would call the main colour (duck egg) blue, but I continued and everything came together. "Great beasts, the Behemoth" - I loved that description and several were out and about today, rumbling along their trails. TFTC.

Found on a long caching day. YAY! Finally got this one after all this time. We enjoyed the walk many months ago getting all the WPs, very nice. However once at GZ, it wasn't found. With knowledge that it had been muggled before, it was time to finish it off. I threw out my original numbers and I wanted to make sure that all the locations hadn't been changed. So we quickly drove around today getting the numbers because we knew where all of them would be. Turns out they were all the same except GZ. Took a long but nice hike from WP5 to GZ where it was quickly found there. Nice to tick off this very lovely suburban multi. TFTC betchern0t!

YAY!!!! This was my final cache needed for my closest 30 caches to home and I've finally ticked it off very happy I did most of this one some time ago just never got round to finishing it. Thanks for the trek around ngunnawal

Out doing the morning pet feeding run, FFLL no 2 decided to tick off another from our list now that the CO had replaced it. Quick search around the area soon revealed the hide. TFTC

#777 - 21:40; Braved a bleak night to keep the 31 days of caching streak intact. My thanks go to the CO for reinstating a muggled cache and also for the quick responses to my various emails seeking confirmation of the data I had collected and the revised GZ. Turns out the new GZ isn't very far at all from the old GZ and I got to sign a nice clean log sheet once I had the cache in hand. Tonight's find makes 10 of 11 betchn0t caches now logged. TFTC and the additional information betchern0t

Muggled. Actually found the old container missing the lid and some way off the mark. New smaller container in a new location.

checked GZ and has been muggled. Just going away so it will have to wait until we are back.

Picked up all the clues and had a nice walk and drive around. Really liked WP2, but took me two goes to get with the program on this one! Had no success at GAZ, so contacted CO to confirm calculations and coords. CO advises cache currently MIA, but will be replaced.

This cache sounds fantastic, can the CO confirm that it's still there before I set out?

We found all the waypoints, but when we got to GZ, we just couldn't find it. We looked in the obvious spots, but no cache. This may need checking on, or maybe we are just blind! Very nice multi though, very creative!

524. A lovely stroll / drive in the area with lots of head scratching. Did most of it with the aid of a car and was a little frustrated as I had just visited a few familiar places earlier this morning. I guess I had the bonus of the views this time as the fog had cleared. TFTC.

TaurusSix and I enjoyed a walk through the neighbourhood. A beast came along as we were calculating WP2 and looked as if was going to stop until we beat a hasty retreat. At WP2 we were a bit puzzled but saw the colour eventually. Another beast passed as we were about to get to the next place they are want to stop. A bit puzzled by WP4 but kept moving. Finally the cache was in hand.

great walk around my neighbourhood

Thanks Betchern0t [8)]

You're right - I'm not. However, doglette appears satiated and is fast asleep at my feet. Rather liked this cache. As I made my way through the gauntlette I found myself saying out loud "There's no beasts here" and my comment was immediately refuted by a loud bark which then set off about 5 others I am sure. At WP2 it appears my eyes cannot make out the difference between mauve, purple, pink or grey, I swear they are getting worse. [:o)] But the correct number was calculated none-the-less and the nice little wander around the suburbs with a detour here and there for some other caches it was too. TFTC.

After a couple of false starts (obtaining the wrong number at the starting way point) it was a quick find in the end.

TFTC.

Hehehe, i think i can do one better than SS's "it's in my street" story.
Starting WP was less than 25m than where i was house-sitting this weekend.

There i was, sitting in the driveway, thinking "There's got to be a cache around here....OHMYGODWTF25METERSAWAY?"

Calculated next waypoint, ....ah, i know where that is. Ran up hill, and..WTF? This is less than 100m away from my dad's house! Geez, i'm on a roll here!
Figured out what purple object it was, ..ah.

Anyway, i'm getting cold and it's dark, and..i'll finish this tomorrow (like the true procrastinator i am)

Ok, grabbed rent-a-geodog (who was very good at being dragged along to this may i add!) and finished it off. Easy peasy!

Am i puffed? Nahhh..i've suprisingly enough had experience walking up these hills (which sounds odd, considering i'm a southsider, hey?)

It was the perfect day for a stroll. Thanks betchern0t for showing me parts of Canberra I'd not seen before, and great views!
Cache has taken in some water, but log still in tack. TNLNSL.

A very nice walk, the views are awsome at the end of the track. I enjoyed this multi and look forward to more BetchernOt caches. TFTC

Done in less than an hour, McPhan bolting ahead back to the car to make his round trip bout 48-50 minutes! Me I took a casual wander with Winglen.

Why waste a public holiday?

All locations bar one scored in seconds.

Now wandering just what is purple?

Thanks for the cache.

We were on a numbers run in the great northern wilderness with ZZ7 and McPhan (can you tell we are south siders?) and we ummed and ahhed whether to take time out for this longer one. Glad we took it as it was a very pleasant stroll across the suburb. All waypoints were simple enough except WP2 which had us puzzling for a few minutes, making us wonder if we used the correct set of 6 numbers at the start (there are two), but then ZZ7 had the insight of the day and then set us on the right path. At the cracking pace set by McPhan, we did get slightly puffed on the last rise. Thanks Betchern0t.

2974. [font=Comic Sans Ms][green]Wrong - but mostly because I [s]stupidly[/s] decided to improve my fitness and run back to the car.

Thank goodness that Zsazsa7 has a predilection for colours with more than four letters as he correctly interpreted the story and spotted the lavender object. From there on it was a gentle stroll through the rolling landscape avoiding the behemoths etc. Wondered about WP4 but kept going anyway. And then there was a little puffing too as we tried to clear this before midday.

Well put together story and stroll - top effort that

After completing 2 other nearby multies headed over to this one. Began and completed stages 1 & 2. Then decided to pull the pin as we were running out of water and it was getting hot especially for April.
As we know the area really well - especially as we have often walked and ridden around before many of these houses were built we knew where this one was taking us. Completed the calculations and today found the GZ. A really great cache with some lovely views.
The whole course is a great one as as mentioned we have completed it many times by bike, with the pram and walked a toddler. Now he is much older it was certainly much quicker.

TFTC

Found at 1700 hrs. Great walk with some fantastic views. Need to come back to WP5 at sunset or when there is a good electical storm. Thanks BetcherNot for the cache. Cache in good condition. TNLNSL.

Found @ 4:15pm

Done on my bike. All co-ords spot on although WP2 nearly threw me, perhaps lilac?!

Beware the glass around GZ. Took nothing, left nothing, TFTC!!

I introduced a newbie to caching today and she had a ball. We had a nice relaxing stroll around and didn't miss a beat. All waypoints were spot on and we found the cache with ease. I can have caching shockers on a regular basis but was so glad to have done this with a newbie.

WP2 is damaged and number is missing.

At GZ log was exposed and not in a container, pencil and sharper on the ground.

All items are back under cover but a container is needed.

Found on a great Spring's day. I can't believe this cache is so close to my house. I have walked and ridden past many times. Unfortunately I think this cache has been muggled , will put in maintenance log.

TNLN TFTC

I bought that container from the caching shop in a fit of enthusiasm as a brand new cacher. That will teach me to use pretty containers:-{)=. Luckily I had another container sitting ready to be used. A pity about WP2 - a second case of vandalism this time to property that isn't mine.

But this cache is now ready to go again. I have altered the clue for WP2 and replaced the container. One benefit is that the new container is a little larger and so there is now room for small swaps. Also the container would end up in the bin in most households so hopefully won't be stolen again. If it is again muggled I will have to move it.

well what a treat , as well has getting some assistance from owners Dad, we also bumped into some local cacher not more than 2mins after that, hows that for a coincidence , perhaps we should have asked for a lift as well.
We interleaved these waypoints with some other local caches, pity I didn't have Geodog with me would have been a good walk.

Now I'm confused... For some reason I thought this was a GUIO cache. I now suspect there is a connection between them & the owner... hmmm - the complexities of the geocaching family tree.

Anyway, we did meet up with both G'pa GUIO & GUIO along the way to finding this cache today, hence some of the confusion. In the end I was taken to a new spot on the north side, with lovely views & a spot to sit, relax & calculate GZ.
TFTC.

2nd one with the geomum today. Got to waypoint 1 and made a easy find next was abit harder, but we got there. Third had me walking around the block until I found it. 4th wondered why I was there. 5th a quick find and another view of Canberra. Geomum liked it. GZ a easy find of decent sized micro TFTC

tftc tft special help

Took the long way home from the airport to finish this one. Started it on dusty day a couple of weeks ago, but today was so much better........a great sunny day to walk around (just like being up north) collecting the last few numbers.

Took a seat at GZ, signed log, before heading off for to hopefully collect a Flying Horse.........

Another nice little multi, and thanks for the hunt.

Did the work after work but after wp5 it was dark and went home. Came back couple of days to GZ to get cache. Great walk around TFTC.

Nice easy find. Nice walk, well, would have been nice if it wasn't raining, blowing a gale, and freezing cold! I was wearing a think jacket, but when the junk mail delivery man walked past in a short sleaved shirt, I couldn't believe it!
Nice views along the way. Nope, not puffed. Thanks.

Did this one in the rain, scooting between WPs in the car. The Behemoth nearly got me at WP 4, but I just managed to evade it. Nice views from some of the later WPs although I seem to recall going up one of those hills for a cache some months (years?) ago...

All in all not bad, would have been very enjoyable in finer weather but I'm not complaining about getting some rain.

Cheers.

Yesterday geohubby and I took the geohounds on this multicache that we had been avoiding until the new GPS arrived.

One slight error where I used fat fingers to enter in the WP and ended up a couple of blocks from where we should have been, but this was easily corrected and a lesson learnt for future. Check your WP's before you nav to them!

A great walk from our home location around the suburbs, WP5 had us less than 100m from home and we decided to call it quits then after seeing the direction that GZ was in.

This morning we headed out directly for GZ. Another nice, early morning walk (I am so glad daylight savings is over, walking the geohounds by torchlight was not a good experience).

TFTC

I enjoyed the hunt, evading all those mysteries creatures and obstructions. Great spot to sit while removing the cache container.

Found this cache with Bevejo and Huxley and Cinders the geohounds.

Really enjoyed all aspects of this one - a perfect dog walk on a fabulous Autumn day. No problems with any of the waypoints, so obviously whatever you did to clear them up worked perfectly well. We did have a quick debate at WP3, but that was merely because we were looking at it all from different perspectives. (this is a funny statement, if you know both Bevejo and me)

The beasts around the area sure were stirred up by our thoroughfare!

TFTC. An excellent effort, first or otherwise!!

Found this one with Fore!, her geohound Huxley, and my geohound. It was a great walk for the dogs as most of the area was open and they were free to have a run.

There were many fierce creatures on the way to WP2 which the geohounds stirred up sufficiently. Thanks for the great views along the way.

TFTC!

De-obfusticated the wp3 description. Thanks fitzy-1965

I had a nice trip around the northern suburbs today. It seems there are still several tracks I have not had a chance to visit yet. Thanks.

1119 - Even though there are a couple of waypoints this is really a quick Multi to do.

I can see why at least one other finder has mentioned a potential problem at WP3 - but you just have to be very careful and look ahead in the WP calcs...

And if you do that it will be a nice quick find... Nice Container..

TNLN - TFTC !!

Cheers....

Nice easy evening stroll on Good Friday around the neighbourhood. Back home for the weekend from work.

TFTC.

A very pleasant and easy walk after the Tennent walks. Nice views of Nth Canberra too, an easy find, Thanks for the nice walk.

1418+13=1431 *ftf*

I was just logging my finds from today, and realized that another cache had just popped up. My geowife's plans for me went out the window as I raced out the door. After all, when the listed coordinates are in your own street, it is a matter of personal honour to try for the FTF.

Little did I know that growupisoptional were nipping at my heels and I only beat them to the prize by a couple of minutes.

I used to love walking my daughter's german shepherd around the suburb and I knew straight away where the final waypoints would be.

Very well done Betchern0t to showcase what would be an excellent walk for cachers with dogs - and even those without. Magnificent views at multiple locations.

Nope - not puffed.

Went out as soon as this one came up. Knowing that Secret Squirrel was still at My First Event cache, we thought we had a good chance at FTF.
Found all the locations (well we thought) but in the end we made a mess of WP3. Still we found WP4 and WP5 by logical guesses but the final GZ was wrong so we went home defeated.

WP3 was bothering us so I went out and got the correct version and came home again.
After sorting out our error went back to GZ only to see another smiling cacher leaving the area.

Boy are we annoyed with ourselves.

This is an EXCELLENT multi...we REALLY enjoyed it. Thanks betchern0t.
