Tftc. We got this as we were leaving from our camping trip. We decided not to do the wildlife walk as there was construction and it was midday. Will have to come back
Loved it here down under. Also, saw loads of wildlife at the nearby wildlife trail!! Really amazing place here at the prom. Quick find by the roadside. TFTC.

Chewbacca72 and I are traveling during 4 months through Singapore, Australia and New Zealand. A few caches that are on our way should not be missing. This cache is one of them. Many thanks to Gonefishen07 for hiding.Best regards,searchersab
Cache and dash. Replaced as found.Thanking you for the Traditional Cache that you placed Gonefishen07 
Day trip over to Wilsons Prom today. Ended up being a beautiful and clear day with lots of wildlife out and about. Did a few short hikes and the Oberon summit. Found 4 caches in total which were all in good shape and with accurate coordinates leading to quick straight-forward finds. TFTC!
Two lovely days spent camping in Tidal River were just the welcome to Australia and a new environment which we needed. Laura and I havent left Myanmar since our brief leap day trip to Singapore, and our two week spring break to visit Lauras friends in Melbourne is all the break from reality and a much needed change of environment. After packing up our tent and getting everything all back in the car, it was time to head back into Mitcham. Once we left Tidal River, our drive back home from the Wilsons Promontory was a little more relaxed than coming here and racing against the rain. After leaving the camp, this is the third stop we made, a quick park & grab as we drove back to the city through the plains. We stopped a little further from GZ so I had to run back, but quickly enough I got to the stash. Surprised at where it was hidden, I opened up the prefab and got out the logbook, which is in good condition. I inked our nick into the logbook at 11:05 am, marking our third find today and our 7091st overall find. I snapped a photo and returned the stash as we found it, and we got back in the car, from here we went for a short hike at the old airport, where we saw some emu and got up close with local wallabies. Thank you Gonefishen07 for another stash and for maintaining your Wildlife City stash; we were glad to visit it and spice up our Wednesday while in ????Australia for our spring break, visiting from slightly-distant ????Myanmar! For my own personal statistics; this is the thirteenth of 112 geocaches we visited while on spring break, excluding the 56 adventure lab caches we visited and 28 Waymarks visited.
Exploring the South Gippsland and Wilson Prom area. So many great places and views.This was an easy enough find once at GZ.Thanks Gonefishen07 for placing the cache and doing the maintenance needed, so we can find this cache.
Staying the weekend at Yanikie caravan park and exploring the Prom found on our way back to the caravan park. Sl thanks Gonefishen for the cache
On the way out from our week base camp I pulled over the make the easy find. Thanks for the cache Gonefishen07

Found by Drakeys World - a family travelling Aus. Check us out on FB or Insta.
Heute habe ich in diesem Park wirklich allerhand verschiedene Viecher angetroffen, danke fr den Kleinen hier am Strassenrand
Nachdem wir drei Tage im National Park waren, um uns die schnen Strnde und Tiere anzusehen, haben wir uns mit unserem Camper auf den Weiterweg gemacht. Davor haben wir noch den Cache gesucht und gefunden, sowie ins Logbuch verewigt. Danke frs verstecken <3PS: Hier lohnt es sich auf jeden fall mal anzuhalten und den Wildlifepfad entlang zu gehen um die Tiere zu beobachten.
Came to Cape Paterson for a weekend. Out for a drive since it was so rainy. We were going to ride our ebikes but the weather is not clearing up. So decided to explore the area. TFTC
After a quick stop to look at wildlife headed on a bit further & soon had the cache in hand
While at Wilsons Promontory we picked up a few caches along the way and this was one of them.
Cache and contents were in good condition.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

A trip to The Prom was on my to do list and we ventured here today even though the weather wasn’t too kind. I’ve forgotten what a magical place this is. All the caches on the way through we nice and easy to find. Thanks for the fun and adventure!
Easy find, but Claws2020 copped a bit from a grumpy bum bull ant....Ouch. TFTC
With 2 weeks off work, and my car at the mechanics, there weren't many options of places I could go, my plans had all bombshelled. Luckily I'd organised to cache with day1976 over this weekend, and a post popped up with someone giving away their prom campsite, so I took it.
After climbing Mt Oberon yesterday, I had a sore hip flexor so I wasnt up for more big hikes unfortunately.
It was a drizzly morning, and a bit windy, but I wanted to make the most of the prom.
Stopped here to find this one, which I think day1976 found.

Due to unforeseen circumstances Mr Smokey Bear will no longer be a part of Team Smokey Bear and will continue his adventures as "SmokeyBearOG".
So I'm relogging all previous finds under my new account.
Unfortunately this log will not show the original logging date.
**Thanks to Gonefishen07 for this adventure, looking forward to many more.**

Nice quick find on the way past.

Found this cache on our East Coast Trip Day 2 in company of Bazzars. A cache on a cold wet windy day on our way back out of the Prom. Thanks from D B-A
Looked everywhere, scoured up and down. People driving by must’ve thought I was crazy looking up and down a random road sigh
Dnf for us on this one, the roadside has recently been slashed along with the trees, spent longer time than its difficulty and previous find history would justify. Or we might just be blind. On to the next one tftc
Busy, busy road but easy to pretend to be looking like a tourist which I sort of am today. Tftc Gonefishen07
Heading home from Wilson's Prom and decided to stop close to this one for a quick look. Partner thought we were stopping for wildlife and was disappointed when that wasn't the case. Quick find here. TFTC Gonefishen07
Plenty of room in the log!
Not magnetic, not a nano and not where you think it is!!!

So lockdown is finally over in melbourne.
So me and the geo wife decide to head down to gipssland to a much needed get away and to do some caching.
Caching more on my part than hers.
So we started by heading down to a small place called The Honeysuckles stopping at a few caches on route.
Arriving we discovery, no electricity or water.. can't even flush toilets as water on electric pump...and of course no phone signal..
How am I going to find caches now?
So we have to pack up and head back up the road and ended in a motel in sale for a couple of nights.
A few days later power is restored and we are back in this beautiful beachside community.
After a few days we head towards Walkerville just across from Wilson prom. Was incredibly happy to find a cache directly behind the house we are staying in.
Anyway lots of caches found and TB's collected and some left.
Thanks for the hide and the cache
Log book signed and returned
Find #911

Out caching with Ginger a newby to geocaching- sadly I didn’t find this one Ginger did tflc
Found on the way back from camping. Forgot to find some others at the Prom but glad to have gotten at least one!! TFTC
Staying at Tidal River to celebrate our wedding anniversary with another couple- we all came up here to go for a walk at the widlife walk. Bunadoorian said there is a cache just down the road. Bunadoorian had it in hand first. TFTC Gonefishen07
Grub62 and I are in Tidal River for the weekend and thought a cache between walks would be a good idea. As we were passing by this cache we decided to check it out. Not quite as the hint suggested but easy to find anyway. In reasonably good condition but the logbook is full and I wasn't carrying anything to replace it. TFTC.
Did the drive by on our way out of the Prom.
One of our crew found out the hard way about the wildlife, she drove in at night and swerved to miss a wombat near Darby River, flipped her car and wrote it off. Fortunately she was ok!

A trip down to Fish Creek for a few days.
Off to visit the Prom today, probably not our best idea - never seen it so busy.
Fortunately we weren't here at dawn or dusk, but we could see a bit of the carnage.
Grabbed the cache and continued on.
Thanks, Robmc.

Take me down to the wildlife city
Where the trees are green and the sand is gritty
Nice quick park and grab on our way back home after an awesome time at Tongue Point. All in good order and dry but getting harder to find space to sign the log.
