Fairy Shroom Jeeralang Junction, Victoria, Australia

An off track adventure. Took a little while to find but was good fun exploring the bush.

Found it

Super cute hiding spot. Kids loved it.

Lots of interesting mushrooms were found while out caching today, including a black one. I've never seen a totally natural black mushroom. Rebel Acts thought it was a nightcap, but google is telling me otherwise. Anyhow, we managed to find this cache swiftly. GPS was spot on and cache was in great condition.

The weather forecast had changed from raining to fine, so I gave Tiz13 a quick message to see if she was up for another of our weekly adventures, it did not take long to get the yes answers.

We headed off to seek out some caches local to us in Gippsland, this is one of the caches found today. A short walk and the cache was soon in hand, we did spot a black Mushroom, not sure I have ever seen one before.

Beautiful weekend weather calls for a day of geocaching trying to reach our goal of 200 finds with 30 left to find before we reach that goal this was our 5th geocache for the day TFTC

Found it with margaretforr1987 TFTC

By the way, the cache may need some attention - the logbook is soaked, and the container might need a new plug. I've taken a photo to prove I found the cache and written in the log

It took me a while to work out how to get to this one - for future seekers, there's a trailhead on Stringybark Track where you can park and walk to the cache. I'm happy to finally find this one, as Morwell National Park is a favorite place of mine. TFTC!

Found today after a hike in Morwell NP. This one was a little bit damaged, will send the CO a message. Thanks for the hide

Easy find out for a walk in the park

Another very cute cache!

We said we’d never drive down this road again! Good reason to today. Tftc

That’s awesome!! Our first one!!! THANK YOU!!

Bit of a bush bash to find this one but found in the end

A lovely walk through giant trees led me to the spot I was looking for. Though the GPS stuck, the hiding place was obvious as you get close. A very suitable cache for the environment. Cache is in good condition. Tftv

My very first find : tftc

Yay great find awesome tree thankyou very prickly bush walk.

Decided to check this one as I had just fixed up one just up the road... this is one of my favorites and worth the small trek in.. all is good... the fairies were out for the day

Look for the big big unusual looking flora... happy hunting

Happy I came for a look

Went bush and came up with the goods!! TFTC

Found it on an adventure walk with my Little Man. Left a star to accompany Nemo.

Found this one today, Took the yellow bunny and replaced it with Nemo.

Love this cache!!! The compass didn't seem to be working on other nearby caches but worked fine here.. took "Very Good" stamp and replaced it with a yellow rabbit figure.

Thank you

GPS awesome today led me straight to the mushy, log a little damp & mixed up a bit needs a new lunch bag to keep dry...TFTH

Needs maintenance but lots of fun. Find a clear path before attempting it. TFTC. My girls left a little swag for the kids. Enjoy.

Found with steviecruz !!!

First time off the tracks tftc

A likable cache!

Good one except for local Cat in the park.

TFTC found with ryan Wilson after a day at work. No pen so could not sign but Ryan found one 20m away!!! What a keen eye!! Left crazy bean took fireman.

First off track find, glad it was an easy one.

Bring on more (:

Wonderful cache. Adequately named.

I brought a friends family out today to learn about geocaching. The 2 geokids seemed to have a pretty good time, as did their Dad. So hopefully we have created some new geocachers!! This was their second find and they thought it was great tromping through the bush to locate this one. As per usual, once we found GZ there was a much easier and less prickly way to make our way back to the path! Thanks for putting a cache is this lovely little part of the world. TFTC

Found after walking a fairy circle. All good.

A bit of a bush bash later and kato potato quickly spotted the hide. Tftc!

After spending the afternoon trekking up and down the hill to find a couple of the 'Strzelecki Secrets' there was still some time on the way home to pickup a few more caches. Parked close to this one and after a short walk the cute cache was in hand. TFTC.

A phone call from Slink1 asking ‘what’s on for the weekend?’ found us down in Morwell for other reasons and it was a case of well we’re here now and so the hunt began Many thanks to Nautilus7497 for the time and effort of looking after this cache. TNLN SL

Off on a weekend sweep in the Morwell area with many good caches found many thanks to Nautilus7497 for the effort and placement of this cache TNLN SL

Found on a great day out caching around the area.
Signed log, thanks again to Nautilus7497.

Exploring some of the beautiful bush walks around here where we are house sitting. TN L magnet. SL TFTC

Brownies would be happy to have their toadstool here.

A nice sunny day like today after all the rain we had last week is inviting for a little bush trip.
Very nice unusual container. Quickly found.

The gps was working like it dose most times in the bush, I really liked the container. TFTC.

TB "Scrat" visited your cache whilst on his Great Aussie Adventure.

This was the 7th cache, on my valley cache run today.

I finally found the cache about 28 metres from the posted co-ordinates.

Once I had found it, I quickly signed the log and re-hid.

GPS showed 30 meters E from GZ, but when circling found Shroom 1.5 meters in open. Lodger kicked him out?. Replaced and propped branch in opening.TFTH and cache.

Followed the slight trail for an easy walk in to GZ. When I spotted the cache, it brought a smile to my face, what a fantastic container! My daughter would love this one, but today I was caching alone the rest of the family were at a local competition. Thanks for placing this unique cache container.

Being fortunate that all three team members had a day off we thought that we would make the most of it and clean up some of the Gippsland caches. We approached this one a little bit too quickly and not paying attention we drove straight passed the limited parking area so after finding somewhereto do a u-turn we were at the gate heading off towards gz hoping that the rain would held off a little longer. We then followed the needle to an area that has obviously been searched before. From the cache page we though that we knew what we would be looking for but unfortunately could find nothing. Again we decoded the hint which didn't make much sense for were we were and then expanded our search and located the great little cache about 15 metres from our gz. It looks like the fairies were in a mischievous mood today and put some sort of anti accuracy spell on our GPSr.
Thanks once more for a great container Nautilass Soni+Dayns, that we expected to be smaller than it was

Found at 14:10. On a beautiful spring day out with GeoDad who made the find on this one. We made sure that we were noisy heading towards GZ to give any creatures with no legs that may have been sunbaking plenty of warning thankfully none were seen. Thanks

Good one...
love the cache and nature park
TFTC

This one took me quite a while to find due to 2 phone calls during my search. They kinda went like this "Where are you?" Yeah in the bush somewhere lol. "What? You wouldn't understand muggle haha. After scrathing my head for a bit the geosense kicked in and the very original container was found. Nice one. TNLN Enjoyed my bush detour. Thanks Nautilus Soni+Dayns for the adventure.

We arrived at GZ after some tooing and frowing and began to scrape and shift heaps of bark. The geo-wife said I wonder!!! and headed off a bit. Yes we had the wrong one from the clue. Geo-wife soon had a nice hide in hand and the log was duly signed.
Thankyou Nautilus.

Great cache very colourful and a nice quiet bit of bushland. Thanks Nautilus Soni+Dayns for the cache

Found late in the afternoon on a quick caching run between getting children. Pretty hide. TFTC
