Unfortunately Donatello has met his match.. I haven't been able to locate a replacement the same, so I will be archiving Donatello. Never know, the whole TMNT team may reappear else ware in the ACT. Thanks to all who found him
Oh dear! Donatello must have been the loser in the battle. We found his remains, but the log was intact, so it was signed and put back as found. Thank you to Rapidlywild for this cache placement, but it does need some TLC from the CO.
Some more caches in the northern parts of Canberra were found today with goingplaces2. Happy to be able to add some smileys to the map. Poor Donatello is very unwell and about on the point of death here. Could still sign his book though. TFTC.
The poor cache has been damaged but what a great day are we having!?Log was getting bit full so I left a spare.Thanks for the cache and for testing my fear of spiders, luckily there were none hereNow grounding nearby
Found it with Baristayan, before heading off to Wildbark tonight.Unfortunately this clever cache design has fallen victim to a recently fallen tree. Yani put in a replacement log because everything else was full, and we tried to repair it as best we could.Thanks!
In Canberra for the Capital GeoBash Mega event. Donatello, thank you so much for placing it for everyone to enjoy and highlighting this area. ??
During Mega Event, after kayaking group, walked to GZ, searched everywhere to found one it was Damage cache by tree fall down.. lognote good dry, TFTC 
Stay at Canberra for Mega and Beautiful places can be found everywhere. As long as I enjoy myself, I don't care what the weather is like. Damaged Here's one to find today.Thank you for placing the cache Rapidlywild.
Found this one OCW cherryfromtheblock on a beautiful Friday afternoon after work. This one was a quick find and was cute too.
We decided to try our luck with the scooters and rented a couple to zoom around the lake going from traditional to traditional while trying to figure out how the scooter, the app and the no ride zones worked.
Ended up in a no ride zone that we had been able to ride quite a way into and had to push the scooters out but all in all a very enjoyable afternoon.

Log very full and a bit wet. Squeezed in between old log. Great hide well worth the favorite. TFTC sl
What an epic lil cache find for my Boys! Didn't even get to tell the eldest the name, he just straight up found it. Lol. Thankyou!!
#2139 Finishing up work early enough I decided to do a loop of the lake and pick up this find along the way. Having found the shell of another one in this mini series I was certain I knew what I’d be looking for. Took a second but geo sense had me homed in on the location after not too long. Name added to the very full log sheet and I continued on my way. Thanks Rapidlywild for hiding this one!
Looking at a handful of caching in Canberra. I've added this one to the list. Thanks for the cache!
TFTC. Out for a wander on ANZAC Day, so I thought it would be a good chance to bag a few caches. Love the turtle cache.!
Great container!! The logbook is full and a little damp otherwise amazing. Very nice, TFTC
Tbh I didn't really try because there appeared to be many snake homes there
All the way down from north NSW and picked up new car,and this is my first cache in Canberra and it’s a cute little fella.TFTC
We’ve seen a similar cache before so we had a good idea what we were looking for. TFTC
Lovely walk around Lake Ginninderra today, exploring and finding caches along the way. This was one of them. Cute container. TFTC
Something prompted me recently to look at my caching stats, and I noticed that I had found caches hidden on 364 days of the year. A bit of searching and I found caches to fill the gaps, and this was one of them. A cold winters day, still a few muggles about but not enough to be a problem. Cache quickly found, log signed as 'B' as it is very full and needs replacing.
Thanks Rapidlywild for the cache

Accurate coordinates and something a little different led to a quick find. The cache was in good condition and the logs dry. However thr logs are full and need removal and replacement. Thanks Rapidly wild for the cache.

I've been meaning to get here for a while and today the geohound and I are walking and caching around Lake G.
The dog was more interested in munching on grass than the cache. Nice secluded place even on a public holiday with lots of people around. Just be aware of ALL directions.

Took awhile to get into the right spot, but then it was found. Nice container. TFTC
A very aesthetic hide in a sneaky spot that we wandered past many times. TFTC for the creative hide.
What a fun design. Had to do a little muggle-scouting to make sure I wasn't seen, luckily it was fairly quiet today and after a short wait to make sure the coast was clear, I went in, made the find and signed the log. Thanks Rapidlywild!
A much cooler morning today to continue my caching mission around Belconnen. This was a nice quick find at GZ, thanks Rapidlywild - love the container!
Well hidden
Went to find it at night first time round but didn’t see it
Came back a second time in bad weather and found it much more easily
Good hide, cool cache

Visiting Canberra for the week and a friend brought me out here to walk her dog.
The funniest part of getting this cache was that when we were in the dog park, I overheard a guy telling the story of why his dog is named Donnie... "actually it's Donatello, after the ninja turtles, not Donatella Versace!", so when I read this cache's description, I couldn't help and laugh at the coincidence that had just occurred!
The cache itself was in good order and very much along the theme of what I expected to find and was enjoyable.

Nice quick find. Looks like there is a circus or something nearby so had to be a bit stealthy around all the muggles
Fun little find after the dog park and walking track was empty. Even found a cache guardian! TFTC!
