Keza's Cache Outtrim, Victoria, Australia
By Gonefishen07 on 26-May-15. Waypoint GC5W9VM

Easy find

Easy

Tftc gonefishin07.. Out for a road trip in Sth Gippy with 3 geohounds and house guest. Mild summer weather made for great views, easy hunting.A nice challenge once spotted.

I was unable to grab this cache last time I was in the area because of the heavens opening up. With much better weather forcasted for today, I was out the door with TOTT Alcyoneus in the Geo boot. At GZ, some tree hugging was expected as I juggled signing the log and staying calm and safe. I'm happy to mark this cache with a smiley. Thanks for another of your great fun caches Gonefishen07 fav point...PS the cache gaurdian was cute too.

After chasing last month’s souvenirs, we wanted a day trip of caches with interesting D/T ratings and you can’t go past any of Gonefishen07’s caches. The terrain rating was a tad concerning as Steve is getting less thrilled with climbing as time goes by.

We bought a TOTT and although Steve is much more comfortable climbing a tree than using a ladder, this time the TOTT was utilised and it did the job nicely. Cute guardian.

No anxiety, log signed and extremely happy we chose this area for our trip. Thank you Gonefishen07, as always, another excellent cache.

Back again today after first visiting this spot 12 months ago. Sighted the cache back then but didn't have the necessary hardware to access it. Today I was much more prepared with my handy-dandy birthday present and soon had the logbook signed. Nice D/T to add to my grid. Thx Gonefishen07 ftc.

A day of caches with monica_is_evil and mrx2. Great day had by all. With the correct tools the challenge was on the cache was in hand. Thanks for placing the caches.

TFTC! Our second T5 for today with mrx2 and diablo1234. Lovely and quiet with no muggles around today.

A nice find with Monica_is_evil and Diablo1234

Thanks for the challenge

Awesome creative cache spotted by Matilda. Glad we had a little one to retrieve it

Not quite sure who Keza is, or what she did to warrant a cache, but the description and terrain rating had us making a detour in search of a smiley.

Happily the area was deserted, except for a local (see photo - looks a little like dad) that seems very well-prepared for this type of cache (although I don’t think his thumb-claws are great for holding a pen). And we were off up the tree faster than you can say “hey let’s get up the tree”.

Great adventure only marginally spoiled as dad dropped the lid - but a quick down-and-up and all was good again.

Thanks heaps for the adventure.

We were very pleased to get this one as we had no luck with a similar one close by.. A good climb for geo husband. TFTC

Visited the location but didn't have correct equipment and the adjacent area was very active - Another time perhaps!

Thanks for the hunt anyway Gonefishen07.

It must be under bark or summit

There were some very weird noises when we were here. None of us could decide what it might be. We ventured a little further but with all the keep out notices, decided not to go any further. Back to the cache which was found, signed and returned. Thanks for the cache.

We all had a bit of a laugh about the name of this one, Would love to know what the strange noises were from further into the bush. Cache was quickly located, once we remembered what we were there for. Thank you for placing this cache for us to find.

A chilly early morning followed by a lovely day of exploring Sth Gippsland with MrsPapi4506 & RoamingHowie, targetting LGAs, solved puzzles & good DTs.
Keza spotted this one. Must’ve been an omen.
Still wondering what those bangs are. But after reading the description, we now know.
Thanks for bringing us here today by placing this cache, Gonefishen07

The sun was forecast to shine today so we decided to head out South East to explore some uncached territory and maybe climb some trees as well.

Looking up the wrong trees to see if we could spot it before GT37 (appropriately) spotted it. Didn’t take long before the cache was in hand and the log signed. Not sure what all the loud noises nearby were but we were not going to explore any closer, especially given the numerous keep out signs!

Thanks Gonefishen07 for the cache.

After the Tassie Boys plans got blown up due to Covid issues interstate i got to bash around with them for a cpl days, with puzzles solved and me making sure 3 suitable kyacks were provided for a lake series AND the transport for some of these bad boy high DT caches.
HUNTER999 provided a good ladder and we were away,
WITH SSRAT AND GOOSE&EGG

Last one for the day, thanks for the cool caches.

This cache gave us a bit of a laugh and was a good finish to put tree climbing today. Now it's off to get a few kilometres under our belts before the returning Easter traffic gets crazy.
Thanks for a ripper mornings caching Gonefishen07

I was all set to go to the Dayboro Mega when a COVID outbreak stopped us dead in our tracks. The Tasmanian Govt was slow to react and open up borders again and, not wanting to risk 14 days quarantine, the trip was cancelled and a hasty little adventure was created to Melbourne and surrounds.

This was the last of the high Ts for today so thanks for all the great caches gonefishen, this one wasnt to long drive and we had the logistics of getting the ladder out, setup and packed backup in no time at all, we've had a great time today.

Well this Easter I wasn't planning on caching in Victoria at all, in fact myself and Goose of Gooseandegg were meant to be at the Mega in Dayboro Queensland but with the COVID outbreak and Dayboro being in a hot zone we would have had to go into 14 days of quarantine upon our return to Tasmania.
As it turned out this was lifted before we returned but it was too big a risk to take as neither of us wanted to be away from our families for that long or put them at risk.
So we spent almost a week finding rare D/Ts we needed, wonderful old caches and a few types that are in short supply in Tassie, thanks to all the COs for the hard work put into placing these caches.

Thanks for the cache.

I have been on a bit of a mission to clear the map south of Warragul down to the coast, A few new ones had popped uo and I was keen to go find them, I was joined by Omegaman1971 today to help drive Me around. Plenty of laughs as always were had as we enjoyed the beauty of this area.

This is one of the caches we found on out travles. I bit of team work and we had this one signed, the other near by one will have to wait till we can get a ladder.

Thanks Gonefishen07 for the cache.

Out and about with Rebel Acts to hopefully clear some caches on his to do list.
I love area, really need to get down here more.
Cheers for the cache and the opportunity for some caching fun.
This cache had us laughing our heads off!!!!
Old men should know there limits...

No ladder? No problems!
After our success at the other T5 here, we were ready for anything and excited to chalk up our second cache in the same terrain category.
There were a fair few options to choose from, with the coordinates providing a variety of nearby trees before I spotted something out of the ordinary and it happened to be the cache!
This one wasn't going to benefit from being poked about with a stick - so, seeing as though there were a couple of available branches on the cache's tree, we decided this one would require a genuine ascent.
I was boosted up first (if you don't have a ladder then you may as well make your own) but couldn't quite scramble up high enough to reach the right branch to pull myself up, so the task was assigned to the youngest who happened to be very light and nimble, clambering up in seconds!
The logbook was retrieved and the container's guardian admired before everything was replaced and our second T5 was conquered!
Thanks to Gonefishen07 for placing this cache!

TFTC, Brainiac03

This cache has been on our radar for ages but we hadn’t quite got around to getting out here with the right equipment. Today was the day - rainy, but the bored geokids were up for the adventure! Geo dad scurried up and retrieved the cool camo and log to sign. Thanks so much for bringing us here and TFTC

Found it. So hard to get log out but got there, safely. What is it about you and trees Gonefishen?

It seems safe enough to re enable now.

Disabling till life gets back to normal. Who knows when that is going to be

Found today with Joolay on a trip to Victoria to attend a funeral. Quick climb before brekky.

TFTC Gonefishen07

Wow that was hectic. Ran out of time yesterday but back today to pick this up. Had the appropriate TOTT but it was pretty windy. But braved it and soon the cache was in hand, signed and returned.

On a trip to Korumburra to attend a funeral but time to get Counties along the way. Smoky again. Not looking forward to going back home and the hectic smoke there. TFTC

Found it with 999hunter. Great Tree climb cache.

View Hunters log for more.

Off for a day of sport and caching in this area, mainly focusing on T5 caches.

Glad the sports ground was free today because it gave us the ability to park within 30 meters of this cache. While I jumped the gate stopping the cars, the girls took the other path. Glad I took my way, as the cache was obvious was my position. After seeing the cache, we grabbed the TOTT and I quickly had the log. 999HK then returned it back

Thanks for the cache Gone Fishen 07

I need this cache to complete a challenge cache I signed a while ago. This cache has just the right D/T rating. So I took a TOTT and braved the heights. When I got up there I found I needed another TOTT to extract the log, so down and up again. Eventually I signed the log, then down again patting my self on the back. A big effort for me.

#10386 @0840
Heading to Philip Island for a conference from Canberra. Picked up a few caches on the way, before stopping around midnight to sleep in the back of the car. Then up before light, stopping occassionally for a park and grab. I had earmarked a few specific high D/T caches to find, and came specifcally equipped for two in Outtrim. Cache soon spotted, and using the TOTT, I soon had the log signed. TFTC.

Find #4608

Since I did the Oxfam Trailwalker event (and numerous training walks prior) with Lost_and_Found_79 we have threatened to arrange a caching day out together. We finally agreed on the Grand Final public holiday and we headed south east to an area where neither of us had found many caches previously. After a few finds in Korumburra we headed to Outtrim and stopped for this one. Having grabbed the other T5 cache nearby we headed
on in hope to this one. The time it was spotted form the ground and I scooted up the ladder again. I got to the cache but couldn't remove the log so L&F79 played the ground role well and chucked up the tweezers for me to remove the log and sign. Our 28th find in a busy day of 35 total finds and a couple of DNFs. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache Gonefishen07.

Annoying Tarbit and I decided to head to this area today for some caching. It ended up being quite eventful, with a rather diverse range of caches attempted (and mostly found!).

After the success of the previous cache, we headed over to this one for a look. I spied the cache fairly quickly, and AT set off to find the cache. Turned out to be a bit of a reach for him, and the log also wasn't readily playing (i.e. wanted to stay in the cache). Not for the first time today, I ended up throwing a pair of tweezers up to AT (caught first time - talk about teamwork!). With the cache retrieved and signed, AT clambered back down. Thank goodness he had an appropriate TOTT in the car. Didn't think we would be attempting such caches when we set out today. Great container as well. TFTC

Great day out caching so far today, two D5s and a FTF at hilda falls
This was a great buzz as well to add my name to this cache.... Tftc

The game of cricket continued.
A decent crowd had gathered.
With some kids practicing in the Southern Cricket Nets they asked.....

"What are you doing Mr....?"

The bananas told them that with the success of the local Cricket Team that the Council were planning to build a large Grandstand here reaching back to this point. Today we are checking out the view from here.

Too many people believe anything the bananas say.

Out collecting D/T today and had this on the list. This was my main target today but in arrival just could not spot it and had to resort to a PAF. I was looking too high in the wrong trees. As I had all my new gear that Lekker_Ding bought me for Christmas I had to use it so up went the string line and rope. Harness on and all attached. Half way up my pen fell. Back down to retrieve it, then up again. Log signed and a quick decent. Thanks for a great cache Gonefishen07

With the correct TOTT on board, we grabbed the cache and signed the log....in the poring rain. Thanks Gonefishen07.

Having seen these two nearby before we were keen to return with the required TOTT to make the find. No problem with the set up or the finds. We completed the signing duties and re hid. TFTC.

After tackling the 3 puzzles nearby it was time for some easier trads. Easier being a relative term, but we were prepared with the appropriate tools so could manage some of the trickier retrievals.
The locals were too preocupied with their own (cricket) game to notice us get on with our own (geocaching) game.
Fortunately the pistol club wasn't in action today!
Thanks, Gonefishen07.

Me: There are a couple of T5 caches...about a 10min detour, need a ladder.

Pacman: Greg, when are we ever going to back out this way with a ladder on hand?

Ok good point! Let's go!

Game was in full swing here however we were able to grab the cache completely out of sight. Thanks GFO07, not enough fave points left to dish out however this one is worthy of one

Targeting solved puzzles with beckNmonts today we headed east towards some very exciting DT combinations. Armed with a 5m ladder and our geomonkey we headed in behind the trees and fence, away from the local cricketers where the search was on. Once we established the correct tree we soon had the cute cache in hand. Thanks Gonefishen07 for Keza's Cache.

We managed to sneak to this cache unnoticed by a group of kids playing cricket on the nearby oval. We soon met Kezza. Up we went and signed the log, and got closer acquainted to kezza. I like Kezza. TFTC Gonefishen07

Found on 15 Oct 2017 at 11:24 am
A bit of drive needed to be done today to get a few more locations for Victoria's Suduko puzzle so we headed down this way which we hadn't been to for years.
It was nice to head out into some dairy country. It reminded me of when I was a kid and lived on a dairy farm out the back of Warragul.
I checked for good D/T squares we needed and this one was in the zone we needed to be in so made sure I had the right tools in the back of the ute and we headed off.
Fleabag-'s keen eye spotted the cache at GZ, then we proceeded to work out how to use the collapsible tool and thankfully we did. Got a couple of bites from the small black ants while up there but otherwise all good.
Thanks Gonefishen07 for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

Spiffy- was kind enough to come for a drive with me today for a zone we needed for a challenge. And this cache was nearby which presented a good D T challenge. He had a ladder that he was dying to use too. So a plan was hatched and off we went. A little bit of circle work and it was spotted. Climb completed and a few ant bites for soveniers. Thanks to Gonefishen07 for placing this cache.

A very late night decision ended in Brodie, muggle partner and I driving from Shepparton to Bairnsdale yesterday Aah the things we do for geocaching!
I'd downloaded pocket queries into GSAK, drawn up my polygon based on Whereis.com's route, refreshed all of the caches within the polygon and then loaded the GPSr [^] We were set! [^]
Leaving at 6am, the Nuvi in Harry suddenly decided that we were NOT going to Bairnsdale via the freeway and Melbourne but that we WERE going to Bairnsdale via the Great Alpine Road [?] Amazingly we saw snow and snow skiers then had 32 degree heat and masses of dusty windy gales all in the one day on Saturday, the day of the 2 Months to the event in Alexandra - Bairnsdale event [?]
Then Sunday was more windy gales, scattered rain, more windy gales and sandblasting of our eyes and bodies while finding a multi in a cemetery and a free wash as we raced back over a pedestrian boardwalk at McGlockko's Beach
I did at least get to laugh as muggle partner tried to move an echidna off of the road and learned that their spines are hard, sharp and go through windcheaters The echidna was still saved though [^]
So many caches that I just did not have time to find however Oh boy! [^] So very pleased that I finally managed to find a couple of older caches that I have been wanting to find for some years now [^] The Billy Goat's Gruff and Devil Bend are now safely claimed as found [^]
Although Devil Bend, being the last cache for the day at 11pm before the mad freeway drive back to Shepp, had it's own story as yes of course the police arrived just as we got out of Harry [^] They loved Brodie and thought his ramp to get out of Harry was great
After breath testing muggle partner and checking both his licence and Harry's rego, they wished us good luck and made to leave
Seems they weren't interested in finding a fantastic old cache as they refused to come and help us find it!
Their comment as they left was 'if we get calls in about torchlights, we'll know it's you!'
14 cache finds today on a ripper caching day! [^]

It's caches like this that have led to my receiving a new magic geo tool The previous one was just too short for a short person like me and so now I have a slightly longer one
As it was, the slightly longer one was only just enough when combined with muggle partner's 6'3" but only just enough was good enough!
It was dark when we arrived here and we had a tad of trouble working out how to get into the area without climbing fences however a way in was eventually spotted.
We wandered in for reconnaissance as we weren't fishing the magic geo tool out from underneath the bags unless we figured it would reach the cache... and we figured that it would [^] and it did and now the log is signed [^] and the cache is found
Cute cache hide too, thankfully [^], as I was dreading trying to find a micro in the darkness when I was tired [)] and ill [xx(]

TNLN. SL. TFTC Gonefishen07

We started the day never having transported a ladder before

I asked Dad about it last night and he produced some black straps
And some pink towels to protect the roof racks

Loading up this morning took a while
Is that tight enough?
Will that rattle?
Is it going to slip? Move? Shift?

But by the end of the day we were smoother than a greased-up otter
Straps done and tight in a blink
Off and on in a smooth motion

And then off
To find some more treasure

Reperio at 1330.

As I continued to make my way across the state on a road trip from Newcastle to Alice Springs, I took a little detour out to visit a few select caches along the way. This one wasn't originally on the list, but as I happened to be in the area, I had to at least come and check it out. On first glance, I almost turned away as I didn't have the necessary equipment with me...but...in looking around the area, I found that there might be a chance of being able to reach it. With some props placed strategically, and some careful balancing, I managed to get myself into good enough position to retrieve the cache. Phew! Had a lot of fun with this one.

Gratias Gonefishen07.

In the company of pprass, I have waited along time to find a cache that will fill in some of my D/T grid, so why not come all the way to cape paterson great place. Well constructed cache, its not going to go anywhere anytime soon

TFTC Gonefishen07

Called in here and couldn't pinpoint the GZ. Probably lucky as I am mad enough to try these without a net lol.

Find #891. Our second T5 and so proud of geohubby (who is terribly afraid of heights) for bravely climbing the ladder of success. Spotted the fun hide from the ground and sent geohubby up as I waited on the ground holding on tight to the ladder. This one was higher than the last but still reachable - easy for me to say lol. Log signed, photos taken. Thanks Gonefishen07 for the adventure never to be forgotten. Favourite point added.

Suscoe had a bit of exploration work today trying to find a good number of caches that we missed this week as we were wandering the countryside of this area.
We are enjoying wandering the country roads and taking in the farmland scenes around here, Some fine looking cattle too.
A cloudy start to the day with drizzle keeping things cool, a strong wind at times and later on some delightful sunshine too.
3rd find of the day.
We decided to wander in here to check out exactly how much elevation we needed.
Luckily we had the right tool and the cache was found, the log was extracted and our name was written in the log care of Mr. S's hand.
Thanks to Gonefishen07 for an unexpected find.

Oh look, another late log by Ms-Enchantress! Who would have thought!

With hubby home today was a perfect day for TeamThommo to come down and attack a couple of tree climbs we have wanted (needed) to do for a while... As we approached this one, I spotted a dead snake, Hubby picked it up and showed the kids for a pat. GROSS!!!

Thanks GoneFishen for placing these caches :)

I remember seeing the photos for this one on facebook, happy to be finally doing it!
I have had a pretty crummy week health wise so when I woke up feeling good and looked outside the sun was shinning and the birds were singing I couldn't have been more delighted to receive a message from my Caching partner in crime inviting me down to go caching with her and her capable not scared of heights hubby.
It was a bonus that the target caches were Gonfishen07 caches and two were also required our D/T matrix. Hooray!
With the ladder packed and Geo Tristan ready for the challenge this was the second one we ticked off the list.
Avoiding hte dead snake nearby - gosh it was Whiffy!
I'll admit it Tristan did the hard yards and I did give it a go after wards so I wasn't such a freeloader. I wasn't so confident with this one as I was with the last one. I do have a reputation to live up to though after local cachers validated my hashtag #fatchickupatree.
No photos today the holes in my inner thigh pants really were not flattering!

Armed with the right equipment kmps and TheGGGs combined today to find these Caches with the high T rating. This one was quickly found and signed. Thanks and well done Gonefishen07.

Found it retrieved it signed it replaced it.
Thanks GF07 FTC.

Found at 2:01 PM GAFF1.
A nice little set up, however the camo cover was slightly broken and so we fixed it up with zip ties supplied by Keza herself
Thanks Gonefishen07.

I am hoping to get into technical tree climbs this year, so I look forward to knocking off a few of these T5 caches when I am competent to do them safely.

On a geocaching road trip with gwd.aussie to attends events in both Bass and Wonthaggi.
This cache was on our list to do on the way down - we spotted the cache straight away and (once we got the ladder out) retrieve log to register the find.

Thanks Gonefishen07

On the way to an event at bass this morning.
We broke our drive to find this and a few others caches.

Went to check the cache high before getting the ladder out of the car.

Glad i could see it from the ground,
Luckily it was within my ladder high.

On the road with D@geo.
Thank you for the hide Gonefishen07

TFTC, I came along for the ride and to help find these caches, I was lucky enough to retrieve two for the day.

6/12/2015 #3338

After getting three FTF's nearby utilising a ladder, Bounty Trackers mentioned that these two would be on the way home. Yep there was time so we headed to GZ, saw the cache and broken branch The cache was retrieved and logged!

Thanks for the cache Gonefishen07!!!

Find #6458

Having finished our grand final weekend adventure at Wilsons Prom, we decided to head for the pair of T5's that were just sitting here waiting to be found. We didn't have the intended special tool, but Oaky had an alternative available, so off we went..... My turn this time.

Thanks to Gonefishen07 for the cache. TNLN

14th / 15th November 2015 - GC5HCJ8 - Casey Fields - Melbourne Victoria

Found it, but need to return with right equipment!

As we arrived at GZ we spotted a massive roo with a joey in her pouch, on the oval. She was a bit camera shy. We were glad to see her having a feed of grass, rather than surprising us if we came across her in the bush. Armed with the right gear to do the job, we happily signed the log. Thanks for another fun cache Gonefishen07. Another favorite from us.

Out and about today to find a cache or two.

Walked to GZ and Spotted the cache and started back to the geomobile to get the right tool for the job, when all hell broke lose.

Now after facing up to a Big Grey at one cache, getting swooped twice at the next cache, there was no way known that I was going to hang around and see how the local pistol club was going.

I will return another day for this cache

This cache certainly created some entertainment!! I was lucky today to have a team of teen cachers (my students) with me which really helped out. We had headed out this morning with the intention of doing a few kms of the rail trail between Wonthaggi and Kilcunda and collecting some caches along the way, but the weather was terrible. Instead we decided to do come caches which would see us close by the bus so that we could get out of the rain when needed.
This cache not only presented a challenge, it also gave us a great laugh!! It's amazing how macho boys can be when a tree climb is involved. They actually though if they just jumped high enough they would be able to hoist themselves onto limbs and get to the cache. How wrong they were!!
In the end they realised that teamwork was the only way they were going to get the cache, and this was awesome because it made for a great impromptu teaching moment. In the end the group made the find and we were happy that everyone came out unscathed!
Thanks for placing a 5 cache. It made for a real challenge.

27/07/2015 - 4.55pm - No. 453 - 2nd for the day - with dgfb33 & non-geo son. I knew having a tree climber son would come in handy & stop someone else trying to collect this one without assistance! Thanks for helping Matthew (Flam3z). Dgfb33 & I had sussed out where it should be on 24th but my "kennel cough" & the weather kept us away for a few days. Rain had done it's business so signing this one was a bit more user-friendly . TFTC. Climber enjoyed himself

With ceebee2013 and ceebee's arborist son. Ceebee2013 and I had pinpointed this cache several days ago but as with Outrim On High, I knew GF07 would not approve of me trying to climb to it, so we left it until grandson was available to help. Leesa seems to think I am too old for this type of cache. I am starting to think she may be correct. TFTC.

Geochild and GeoDad were dead keen to try to claim this cache. Geomum not so keen. Once spotted The right instrument was retrieved from the cache mobile. When the hide was in hand there were was much excitement. Thanks. Silkyie

Another monkey move.

Found lucky we had Alan

found it with heather and girls and ashweesway

Had a great day out with Gonefishen07 hiding a few caches.

*FTF*

Today I had one of my most enjoyable and adventurous days of caching to date. There were so many highlights to the day which included 2 FTF, another D/T loop completed, finding the oldest unloved active cache in the state, 4WD up in the Alpine region, caching in the snow and to top it off the weather was absolutely perfect.

Jacko83 and I had planned for today, to find the oldest unloved cache in Vic, 'King of the Castle', located about 40km north of Sale in the Alpine National Park. We were to meet in Sale early in the morning and head out from there. I had planned to find some caches around Morwell as I made my way to Sale, but that plan quickly changed when some new caches were published very early in the morning.

After managing a couple hours of sleep I was in the Prado heading east to Outtrim. The sun had still yet to rise as I made my way to GZ, and the only sounds were those of the birds welcoming the start of a new day. I initially wandered around, trying to determine which tree the hide was up in, as there were many in the area, until I then spotted the hide. OK, how do I get up there. Surveying the tree I worked out the best plan of attack.

Before long I was signing first place in the logbook and with that completed my 4th loop of the D/T matrix. The day could not of started of better. The morning drive I then took from Outtrim to Morwell through the Gippsland valleys was fantastic and the scenery quite beautiful.

Thanks Gonefishen07 for the cache. A fav for me.

After finishing work in Mt Matha at 1:30pm and having a lovely lunch in Mt Eliza I decided to drive out to Outtrim to have a go at the 2 new T5 cache. Sl Thanks Gonefishen for the cache and the T5. 2nd to find on this one. After talking to the cache owner about this cache she told me what the FTFinder did to retrieve this cache, Marty your NUTS.

Published
