A cute cache...well camoflaged...Kestal was at the right angle to spot the container. Thanks again.

Next stop for Eskies5, Scratches and I as we made our way around all parts of Melbourne over the leap day weekend. This one had us tripping around a bit before spotting what we came for. TFTC BorisB&Natasha

Timely to escape the smoke and fire threats in the NE and catch up with some buddies in Somers and Mt Eliza AND get out on the MTB to explore the trails along the beach since it’s not really swimming beach weather. A great series and so much care and thought has gone into creating lots of fun hides. series On a mission today to collect 50 + and keep the streak alive so TFTC and series.

Another awesome cache that gets a favourite, but that will do for now, as I am tired. Hopefully will come back to finish them all off one winter when I return to melbourne. TFTC

Find number 8016 at 5:19:04 pm
Travelled down to McCrae to visit my niece and hubby to see their new twins, two little cuties.
Time to head home but just enough time to redress one of my older DNF's down the road. Plenty of caravans today but luckily not too many occupants. Headed to GZ and seemed to go around in circles just like last time but eventually my eyes went BINGO as I spotted the prize.
Only one more DNF to get to further down the bay (for another day) and that will be the trail done, great trail too.
**Thanks for placing this cache BorisB&Natasha & Nut bear **

Found by Mary and David, in company with pprass, at 15:45. The first day on the Bay Trail for both teams. Could have picked better weather though. Only the second day of summer, but there was a cold south-westerly blowing, and rain showers passing through, so we lost a couple of hours in the morning waiting for the worst of the rain to pass. Another longer search here. Our thanks to BorisB&Natasha.
 
02-Dec-19
Found at 3:47 PM GAFF3 in the company of maccamob.
We pushed our way in and located the hide quite quickly this time - are we getting better at it? No not really Sad
Thanks BorisB&Natasha
 
15-Nov-19
Missed this one the first time but managed to grab it on the way back to the car. I made it a lot harder for myself by scrambling under the wrong tree, but after seeing a similar one or two elsewhere on this trail I widened my search and when I saw it, though “I wonder...”. Thanks for another great hide! Smile
 
01-Nov-19
Our main goal today was to seek out as many of this series of Bay Trail caches as we could. We enjoyed the many varied, interesting and clever caches found along the way and so many thanks to the COs for all the time, work and effort involved in having created the caches, laid them and maintained them. We also had fun making the connections between the song and the cache hides - we had a great day out! It took us quite a bit of searching before this cache was located. We signed the log book and then replaced as found. Thanks so much for another very well camouflaged cache and greetings from Zimbabwe
 
19-Oct-19
Yay - Big Grin I found this very sneaky hide today in the rain today. As I was replacing the container, a friendly skink popped his head up from the hidey hole. Looks like he's been living there for a little while. I very gently placed the container back into place without disturbing or hurting him.

Thanks for the cache and the Bay Trail series BorisB&Natasha. I really enjoyed being by the beach and cache hunting today even though it was a bit windy, slightly overcast and with showers coming and going.

PS: The Troll Dolls (TN6TR0) were with me when I found Devil Inside today
 
05-Oct-19
That one was so hard took me ages...lol
 
01-Oct-19
Ok my 9 yr old son is way better at this then me! I checked the clue and yet he still found it without the clue!
 
16-Sep-19
Missed the first time but found it on the way back
 
11-Sep-19
The hint is pretty specific but still no luck here. Searched every tree in the area.
 
03-Aug-19
This one took a second look but geodad came up with this tricky find. TFTC.
 
30-Jul-19
A couple of dodgy people turned up and just sat in their cars, so we kept a close eye on them. Again, this search was taking some time, and when one of the drivers walked passed us, we were now looking like the dodgy ones. Resumed the search when the coast was clear and found a now familiar camo cache.

Great series BorisB&Natasha & Nut bear. Thanks so much for the fun of the hunt.
 
30-Jun-19
Very clever hide!
 
21-Jun-19
Out and about with echidna44 and au-fait for the day ticking off some in this wonderful beach location. The weather was not looking to nice but it did not dampened the crew. Having parked a car at one end we are now in for the walk. The best about doing this in the off season and not so good weather is that not many people are around. This one has us going to for quite a while. I widend my search and bingo found that little devil. Thanks for the variety and quality of these caches BorisB&Natasha & Nut Bear
 
21-Jun-19
Out with xambo4u and au.fait, we decided to cache along the foreshore, starting at Safety Beach. A cool day with intermittent rain was not enough to deter us. We searched for ages, walking in circles. Finally an ‘aha’ moment.
Thanks BorisB&Natasha & Nut Bear.
 
21-Jun-19
Out for a day in the great company of echidna44 and xambo4u to do a section of the Bay Trail and of course collecting caches along the way with an ambitious list ahead of us. A car shuffle had 14 caches between us and lunch, which had us picnicking in a shower. Following this a further shuffle with another 14 on our list. A lovely walk, and excellence in both the quality of the caches and the company made for a memorable day. On this overcast day the technology was proving rather unreliable so spent too long looking in the wrong place before we looked elsewhere with more success. Yet another favourite point TFTC BorisB&Natasha & Nut Bear

We were both focused on one object here that was a little hard to get to, and I couldn't find anything when I got closer. Then OzHockeyChick spotted it elsewhere, and just like the previous hide. Awesome hide, thanks!
 
28-Mar-19
I found your cache "Bay Trail - Devil Inside", with +Wife on her birthday - 28 March 2019 at 12:50
Very nice camo job.
A quick find once we moved to the correct side of the walk way.
Thank you for placing and maintaining this geocache for us to find BorisB&Natasha & Nut bear.
A well deserved favourite point for the attention to detail and to add to your cache carnival tally.
 
28-Mar-19
Out enjoying the sunshine with n0w0rries. We needed an area where he could have a rather easy walk today. Recovery from Monday's adventure will take some time and the last thing needed was to overdo it at this early stage. The search began on the wrong side but once we shifted our attention to the other side this clever cache was soon spotted. Thanks for the cache BorisB&Natasha & Nut bear.

Down form Sydney for Xmas. back out on the Bay Trail to tick off a few more. This one could have been very tricky but thankfully I noticed a little edge on a very common item. Phew! TFTC BorisB&Natasha & Nut bear #763

A before bed stroll to watch the sunset and pick up another nearby cache.

Thanks for the cache.

I’d crawled under the wrong tree when I got the shout .
Very nicely done.

28-Oct-18
Sadly not today, did not find at 2:46 pm
Out for a days drive with MuggleWifeDoes and catching up on some long ago DNF's or missed opportunities down on the Mornington Peninsula. And enjoying the sunshine at the same time, what a glorious day Wink
Got close to the GZ and there was a dumped eski in the scrub near where I suspected the prize to be.

Only problem was, there was a bloody big SNAKE in eski!!!!!

I hightailed it back to the car.

Sorry for the generic log on this one but my life has been a bit overwhelming lately and I cannot exactly remember the exact details of each and every cache on the trail that I did today, not many but enough. Anyways I spent today rechecking caches that I had found to fill in the clues that I had missed in the previous caches that I had found and adding more clues haha. Anyways thanks for the cache, I am really enjoying the serious, we all appreciate all the effort you go into making these quality caches. Cheers

After talking about doing the Borisb&natasha and Nut Bear bay trail with Bounty Trackers for nearly 2 years, we finally got around to doing it.

This was a great cache hide, giving a Favourite Point.

Possibly signed as Nicnax2 with WeRAmused. Good to have another walk along this trail. Love being at the beach as live in the country so not many opportunities. Found quickly but waited for WRA to find. It was my turn to laugh in the process..Usually the other way round.....Love the caches in natural camo. TFTC
 
10-Sep-16
Up early and grabbing a few caches before breakfast and before there are too many muggles about. The GPS took sometime to settle here, so I was looking in the wrong place. It was good to find this tricky little hide and SL.
Thanks again Nut bear for placing & maintaining the cache for us to find.

***********BAY TRAIL - PART 1***********

Today I teamed up with OsWells and Super H and Tim (making #TeamBrainiac03) to get some Bay Trail and surrounding caches by bike. It was a successful day with finding 18 caches by bike with a 100% success rate of no DNFs. Thanks to all COs that hid the containers that made our day so enjoyable. Hopefully we'll be back soon to grab more along the Bay Trail.

Brilliant cache. Very devilish indeed!
