Found, after a bit of searching/climbing.The single clean bit of paper was fine for the log, yet the many crumbling (once wet?) pieces of old log paper shows this cache tin needs the log book to be in a waterproof plastic bag.I carry spare ziplock bags to replace logbook bags, but the bags I had were too big for this small container.
 
12-Nov-23
Quick find here as we head out of town... tftc
 
07-Nov-23
Staying nearby on St Helens Point Rd, i simply walked to this one and made a swift find and sign at 19:01 on Tuesday the 7th of November 2023.The cache had only scraps of previously wet and mashed paper so i added some fresh paper and signed it.Replaced the cache as found so any rain won't get in and pool within the ache ruining any paper inside.I hope it stays dry. TFTC Ryan00 Smile

21-Jul-23
Staying in St Helens we headed out to locate caches nearby and as far afield as Derby and this was one we found. It was a lovely day to be out caching. Hardly a 1 terrain as no way you could reach this from a wheelchair. As others have stated, log is mush. TFTC
 
21-Jul-23
Definitely needs some attention
 
01-Jul-23
Found but paper was all wet inside

Jetstar was having a sale…. in the middle of winter, for a destination further south than I already live. That sounds like a great idea!

So a plan for a 4 night whirlwind tour of the northern part of the state was hatched. I’ve seen lots of this beautiful state, but haven’t found a single cache. With plenty of challenges to tick off, and a long list of targeted caches, this week is the time to turn that around.

Todays adventure takes me west from Launceston to St Helens via Beaconsfield, Low Head, Bridport and Scottsdale.

I found a spot to park and took a wander to this cache. The cache is exposed and the host appears to be deteriorating. Unfortunately the log is now mush. This one needs some CO love.

Thanks Ryan00 for adding this cache to the worldwide collection for us all to enjoy.

Nice quick find on our way south.

Today we drove up to visit the Serpentarium wildlife park at St Helens with plans to do some caching at Bicheno and St Helens while we were there. After the Serpentarium we decided to go up to Binalong Bay so it was too dark to go caching at Bicheno while on the way home, but we still found eight caches at St Helens.

A quick find on the way back home from St Helens. Log is, unfortunately, quite wet and needs replacing.
 
17-Mar-23
Thanks for the find. Needs new log paper

We are camping at Policemans Point with tassietan and needed to come into town for supplies, so decided on a caching day as well. This was the first cache after shopping.
Had to laugh as we came round the corner, having parked 300 metres away..there was a lovely park so much closer!
Anyway, the walk was nice.
Thanks for the cache Ryan00.
 
08-Mar-23
Camping north of St Helens with The Roadies and needed to come into town for some supplies, which fortunately gave us an excuse to do a few caches in the area. Wasn't sure about parking near the bike track so stretched the legs and had a bit of a walk. RoadieR located the cache at GZ. VERY full log needs replacing ASAP. Thanks for the walk and cache Ryan00.
 
06-Mar-23
TFTC. Wish we had time for this very nice bike path.
 
28-Feb-23
