Wow so many chopped down trees to search in, I really do wonder if this one is still here. Another DNF to make this list a little longer. Maybe a visit from the CO is needed
After logging a didn't even bother log, I decided that wasn't very spirting of me so gave it a bloody good 30min search in & under every bush, log & crevice.
Beeds a check with 8 DNFs in a row or I think I'll add a 'Needs Maint' log.

Tried for a while for this one but no go. Smokey Bear and I hunted high and low.
Pretty sore it needs a new container

No luck with this one either. Search for a little bit, but after finding the other two mega's realised that the amount of time searching was more than enough.
Gone I believe.
Gone I believe.
Maybe if it was a mega cache I could find it. But spent ages looking with no smilet
Time n patience was playing a part in the failure of signing this log book and also the temperature was a little warm to be searching thoroughly, we will be back
not today. So many places to hide. Maybe a little more of a hint would help us.
Road Tripping to Phillip Island
Definitely not the best Cache
Agree with other comment
NEEDS A HINT
IS A DNF

Spent more than 15min searching for this, even did the Mega's and came back for a second look, still to no avail
Finally getting around to logging all my finds, time has just gotten away, sorry for the delay. Found with Katnat2. My son is participating in a challenge (The Rotary Junior Community Award) with his school designed to get kids out and about and he choose to do geocaching as the sport component. tftc, quick find on our way passed.
No chance of me in my moonboot getting this one, so sheldea just waved it around for me to see from the path!!! TFTC

*After a morning walk around Cape Woolamai, we set out to tidy up some unfound caches showing on our map before heading home on Friday.*
The frogs were putting on a classic performance as we approached the cache.
Thanks Bounty Trackers for placing caches for everyone's enjoyment.

Not sure where this guy should of been hidden but it was just thrown down in the middle of where we were looking i hide it a bit better tftc
Quick find with tassie expat. Cache had fallen out of its hidey hole. Signed and replaced. Tftc
As others have mentioned, trust your gps and it's a relatively easy find. But so many potential hiding spots had us cautious of success. Tftc!
Found thanks to kazaren's keen eyesight. We were clambering around those logs for a while!
Not our idea of extra small but never mind. Was drawn to the colorbond but thar wood be the wrong idea aye.
Been finding for 10mins and almost give up but fortunately found it on the way out. Thank god! Good hide. TFTC
Tried couldn't find so found the Mega cache, tried on way back to car and daughter found it!!!! Good spot, she's stoked
Finishing my work down the Island I decided to come past and have a go at "the MEGA cache" i had been here once before but it was raining and muddy so I didn't get further than the carpark, which, back then was really just a mudpit, not the clean concrete layout that exists now. Anyway this was my first stop and a bonus find really. The hunt for this took a little longer than expected and as it turns out my main problem was trusting my instincts over the very accurate co-ordinates. After looking at likely hides I decided to let my phone take me to GZ and sure enough there was the little hide. TFTC
FINALLY!!! checking out the area and after a failed attempt this arvo we decided enough was and let's find this thing. So glad I never have to walk Into that scary place ever again!!
After seeing the pelicans across the bridge with the kids we were forced to make a stop to retrieve a drink bottle and this one was just 50m away. So I went for a quick run. After diving into gz o get a text from geohubby saint that miss 3 is following me. Well i spotted her walking along the path and told her where i was...and then she disappeared. When i got it off there it was to see a little lone figure way down the path. Needless to say this cache hunt took longer than planned what with kids retrievals. Eventually i got it though! Thanks for the cache!
How many snakes do you see before giving up the search.....
Didn't see any but I believe they were watching me.
Thanks Bounty Trackers FTC.

Had a solid look for about 10 mins but no sign of it. Really needs a hint in this terrain.
Not a good idea to do at 11pm! Bit scared! Had just given up and was walking out when Mr geo spotted it! Keep your eyes peeled. No need to move anything!!!
Had previously found the really big Mega cache before it got muggled. This one was certainly not as mega as it, or its replacement. TFTC
Found by Mary & David at 1601. Amazed at the number of new buildings here, but we guess that everyone wants a piece of this action. Perhaps they'll need to build another bridge from San Remo before the island sinks. January traffic is crazy. Took quite a while to find it, and then only when we looked from the right angle. Our thanks to Bounty Trackers.
We approached GZ and we're a little worried to see where I had to go, especially with the hot weather and all the cut trees and foliage. I must admit that 60% of my vision was on snakes given the amount of lizards darting in every direction with each step I took, and 40% concentrating on the cache. It took me about 20 minutes to locate, but once I came from the right direction, it was a pretty straight forward find. TFTC
Found in the company of pprass
Well we thought, this is going to be a needle in a hay stack, a micro in here, seriously? The GPS was going a little nuts and would t settle for me, so I widened the search and there it was, how did we miss that the first time? TFTC Bounty Trackers

Found at 12:01 PM GAFF5 in the company of NurseHayley.
We were a tad daunted seeing where we had to search for a micro. After looking around a few likely spots, we widened our search and Hayley found it in a relatively easy spot which we just missed when we first approached as we went around on the LHS instead of the RHS.
Thanks Bounty Trackers.

Arriving at GZ it was a case of "Oh no, not a micro somewhere in there." With cjfinda and matt_geo we started scouring the area that has so many possible hidey holes. GPS was accurate, and after a while cjfinda made the find. We then drove around the new estate. TFTC
We managed to make our way to gz then searched and searched for the perfect spot to hide a cache. Eventually found it right where robber44's gps said it should be! TFTC Bounty Trackers.
Found with cjfinda and robber44. We found the mega one a long time back so we thought we had better stop for the not as mega cache. Cleverly hidden in a tricky location. Definitely not as mega - but then a whole lot harder to find! TFTC
Thank god for a German and Dutch tourist who were looking for the same one. A collaboration turned it up tftc
Could be a bit snakey in summer. So take it easy. Half way to the MEGA CACHE!
Off to look for the mega, saw this on the way, was going to hunt, started making our way over, kids freaking out at all the crickets hopping around - abandon search! Hahaha
Spend a little while looking for this one while visiting the Island but struggled to find it. Met fellow geocachers Giraffe_legs and Ducky_legs. Together we searched a little more and Giraffe_legs located the cache. A great little hidey hole. TFTC
A quick and easy drive by while we were in the area. Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.
With aquapearl. Geokid and snake ( only joking ) -but may be a factor in summer.
Fallen tree area took 5 mins. Aquapearl found the sneaky hide. Went down to show geokid he mega while here

Surefoot 24 had left me looking while she did other things. She came back just in time to hear a crash from the bushes, it was me falling over. Just as well she returned when she did, otherwise I'd still be trying to get up. Found the cache as well. TFTC and the adventure.
Took a lot of looking but eventually a cry came up from Wal-len. She'd found it! Job done we heading off to the next challenge.
My plans after working a half day were:- study, housework and weeding. So I had a nap and went geocaching instead. This was a 90mins return walk for me at a brisk pace. Walked to the cache via the beach. Got to gz and surveyed for snakes on such a warm day. Decided to go to the top of the path and follow the fenceline down. Much easier and I could see any wildlife. Found the cache after about 5mins hunting. I made lots of noise just in case those wrigglesticks were basking nearby (it's probably obvious by now what my phobia is). Not a person to be seen. TFTC and walk. Off to check out the new mega cache container.
We followed the gps in amongst a whole lot of chopped down trees. Bit wet today and kids slipping all over the place
FTF .. With Maximus1978 .. Our first of those .. Cheeky lil spot .. The rain nearly had us giving up .. The GPS kept sending us in multiple places .. One last direction and there it was!!
Found it with JoJobeenie top spot for a hide as there's a visual feast of bush here had fun rain and all
Thanks for the hide
