Found with brigstar. Funny to see something he put in there ages ago still sitting in here. Thank you for the cache
We had the chance to head out into our local area to do some caching and revisit some areas we have not been to for some time. Some lovely areas visited and found a few things we had not seen before.Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache Teammoss5.**SKI Pair****
We found this cache today in company of Alrba. Today we were back for the western half of the trail after completing the eastern half some weeks ago. Seventh and final one on this section. A really pretty walk and the kids had fun at the tree. Thanks from D & HA B-A

Gps took me in and then kept taking me further. Suddenly this view appeared and I just had to explore. Great spot and there was the cache as well.
Log signed and all back safe again.

It was a great day to head out for a bike ride along this trail. We grabbed three at the other end of the trail a few weeks back, so we thought we had better clean the rest up. Nice quick find. TFTC
If there’s a hard way to get to a cache, I’ll find it every time! Suddenly location appeared. An out loud "wow"
No fairies present today and I took fairy steps to get to here to minimise my ecological footprint.
tftc de ja vu and to Teammoss5 for maintaining

Sneaky little cache hiding in a big hide, signed the log and returned no leeches this time
Find #8 out of 15 today. Found at 12.31 pm.
We started the day with completing the tour around Neerim as part of the Neerim District Adventure Lab. After completing that, we had decided to walk the Crossover to Rokeby trail today as well as do any other cache we could find along the way.
This one was a fun one to find. We read the description which said to follow an overgrown track; so as we neared the GZ, we looked for anything that looked like an overgrown track. We found one and followed it up the embankment and through heavy growth wondering what had we got ourselves into. We eventually got close to the GZ after going through massive spider webs and a leech try to get a hold off MrHyde Jnrs leg (we got it off before it sunk its teeth in). At the GZ, we almost gave up; but then in a moment of inspiration; found the cache. On the way back to the main trail; we found it was right there - we had taken the wrong overgrown track and could have saved ourselves a lot of hassle by just being a bit more patient and leaving the main track closer to the GZ.
Today was a very successful day. The most caches we have ever found in a single day to date - even more that we would have thought as the Adventure Lab checkpoints are counted as individual finds. Gives us a new target to aim for in the future!!

This one was impressive in so many ways...WOW ...good thing the creepy crawlers were behaving themselves....now how do I get out???
One must have courage to venture further in! Beautiful discovery awaits! Log in perfect condition. Signed and placed back.
Definitely found the spot but couldn't find the cache. May have been hidden a little too well given another DNF a few days ago
What a fantastic hide. Seeker8484 and I are both over 6ft tall... Wish we had geokids for this one!
Lots of bush bashing needed to get to this one but what an impressive natural feature! Finding.Saeah did the finding on this once...once she found me after I ran off ahead. TFTC
Thanks deja vu. It took me two shots, once on the way up, once on the way down, got there eventually, cache is in good condition. Regards from Victor
My GPS took me straight to some and refused to for others. I blame the forest trees. I found this one Thanks de ja vu.
Out pre walking a route for my bushwalking club and picked up a few caches on my return
Long way off trail I wouldn't want to come in here in summer found with geowife kezza kezza1211 naturegirl and rogerz1956 TFTC.
Really in the bush this one, my GPS was a bit out, but found it, not were you expect it TFTC its a nice hide

The weather was looking good so plans were made to catch up with omegaman1971 and Happy Pants to do some caching , we had a great time finding caches in the area.
Thanks de ja vu for the cache.
Thanks de ja vu for the cache.
More GPS bouncing. But the trick with these is to widen the search. TFTC found with Jimmytherat. Another great hide.
TFTC de ja vu. Getting used to the changed landscape and dodgy GPS which make it a challenge to stick to tracks. Jimmytherat with Noelle04
Found it while enjoying some exercise locally.
Unfortunately no fairy sightings but a great cache. After taking the necessary COVID 19 precautions, we logged it.

Not sure where we were supposed to look. The path wasn't clear and the gps didn't work well. Angela and Theodore
6th find for Loose Unit & me today. Took us longer than it should. GPS is really dodgy along the track, so will be downloading this area in order to get the others we missed. TFTC
New GPS worked well on this one putting me in the right place 
Thanks de ja vu
Thanks de ja vuWe did the Hallam Valley trail this morning and then a quick stopover in Drouin to BBQ some sausages before heading up to this trail.
This was our last for the day - the light was fading, the walk back to the car was getting biger and the rumbles in the tummy were getting louder. This was a magical one off the track to finish our expedition on. The GPS was slightly out but keen eyes and geosenses helped.

There was a sort of overgrown trail, but it was easily lost. Nonetheless, the amazing forest feature was found -- and it is pretty cool! A torch will help you see the full effect. H laid hands on the cache first. TFTC.
We have decided to make Yarragon our base for next couple of days. This series was on our radar. Initially we had thought of cycling but on reading most caches were off he track a bit we decided to do it on foot and split the team to manage a car shuffle. It is certainly quite a fairylike GZ. Loving this walk. tftc
8th of 9 finds on an afternoon adventure with little sister Rosie. Surely this should be hidden in the tree next door! Thanks de ja vu!
After visiting some family for morning tea I decided to do part of the rail trail this morning. I didn’t have time to complete it, but there is always next time! I found the forest feature here, but it took me a bit longer to spot the cache. I was on the lookout for fairies, but didn’t spot any today. Thanks for a series of diverse caches, and an enjoyable walk de ja vu
A quick find in the shadow of this monster.
Cache all good, slightly exposed but covered better.
Thanks for the cache

Since moving from New Zealand I have been enjoying the area, exploring and finding caches.
So far I’ve knocked off 4 of the states. VIC, SA, NSW and A.C.T
No two areas are the same here and almost every place I go is stunning. The beauty of caching is that it takes you to so many places you would never usually find.
Thank you to all the cachers out there for hiding and maintaining their caches. Especially to those who put so much effort into creating unique and fun hides.
The caches I’ve found in Australia so far have for the most part all been in great condition. Keep up the good work.

Almost had me on this one but experience got the job done...TFTC and series da ja vu
Found it easily. Was amazed by the size. Then realised that it was true. Size doesn’t matter. Then had a good old giggle. Tftc. Great hide

Find 6 of 7 for the day and #2168 in total.
Found by Echo! (Echo 2 - Spice 4)
Very cool tree, glad we didn't have to search inside it.
The pup however loved running through it!

+Tftc. Ran up to the base of Crossover Bridge from Rokeby and after checking the likely position of that one, turned and, as planned, aimed to bag as many on the return run. This one was the third and a relatively quick one. Mind you I did think the altrnative size was a better location
Found on a caching afternoon on the Rail Trail. After descending into the undergrowth I found a MASSIVE hollow tree. I could have stood up in there! But then I realised that size isn’t always important and soon I was signing the log. Thanks for the hide
