A well-hidden cache with a cool camouflage. The cache container is a bit wet but otherwise all right.
Last one located and final clue obtained to calculate co-ordinates to final location in the RGEEO series. This was a bit tricky to find as there was tree branch debris covering the cache area. All in good condition though, and no damage to the cache.
Ooops forgot to add code to collect when I replaced the logbook. Also added inside lid
This is the last one for us in this series so next it will be onto the final. Great day for a stroll. Thanks for placing the cache for us to find.
We have finally found all in this great series but will have to come back for the final another day. Thank you for your contribution to this great hobby of ours.
Found in within a couple of minutes. Actually, I had fun. So, thank you for putting a smile on my face. Great start to the new year..
Out and about on Grand Final Day - always a good caching day, especially in the afternoon. On my return to the car from #4 I virtually walked past this one without realising. Once back at the car, I realised my mistake and went back and made a quick find.My thanks for the cache, Mister Doctor.
Found the cache with my friends. 2 kind girls helped us. We didn't think the rock was the cache.
I thought about attempting other caches in this series but decided it was too wet and muddy so today I went for this cache instead and it was a good idea!
I was initially looking in the wrong spot and overlooking the area the actual cache was in. When I repositioned myself I found it straight away and realised my mistake and the great camo. Thanks for the cache!

The Road goes ever on and on,
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.
As the clues have been lost to time,
And the memories have faded away.
For if my log it doesn't quite rhyme,
Thank you for the cache. YAY!

Found with n0w0rries.
The ground is somewhat soggy, unfortunately, so too is the log.
Thank you for the cache MrDr

Great cache camo! However despite the lid being firm and secure, the contents were a bit on the damp side. Further on our walk between this one and the final mystery cache we saw lots more flowers - have attached some pics TFTC!
I was in the area for another long walk (today, I clicked over 9km for this session), and after a few misses at some other caches, it was good to collect this one. The area here is quite boggy, and there are no real paths. I think this will be really nice area when the council finishes sorting it out.
At GZ, the cache log was very wet, but the rite in the rain paper is doing its job. Thanks for adding this one!

Continuing our walk with the grandkids we have come to number 5 in the series. We thought the final would be a 'walk in the park' from here after doing a little algebra. Unfortunately we must have written down an incorrect clue as the checksums failed. We will have to come back another day to complete the series. Thanks Mister Doctor.
Found it! On returning past this GZ I expanded my search and soon made the find. It was a bit further away from where my phone was pointing but it’s position was more camouflaged. I notice there’s some gardening going on next door, maybe it’s the gaffer’s garden? TFTC SL. Great container but seems to be letting in some water. The log book was quite wet but still usable.
Today I had to even the score of spending time amongst 3 sets of grandkids. So I brought the grandkids who are local to this area to do some treasure hunting in and around home. It was a great morning, manageable dummy spits, and didn’t say they were hungry. Doing great nanny! This was our first find. TFTC
With Geo-wife and 2peasinapod2012, it was ap pleasant walk in this reserve to pick
up a few caches, this was a well constructed cache, but for some reason the log book is very
damp!.

Very clever hiding spot, first time exploring Vermont, nice open area, had a lovely walk trying to locate it.
After parking in near by Moore road , it was a pleasant walk down the hill to gz. Searched for awhile and ended up resorting to the hint. Oh , that's great work on the cammo. Signed a rather damp log, grabbed the clue and a TB. Thanks mister doctor .
In Melbourne to attend the Mega at Whittlesea with tmann421.

Great views of the Dandies on the way down. While slopping through the mud I thought I'd still rather this than dodging snakes in 35 degrees. Giddy up
Nice quick find for us today!

After a very bumpy bike ride down the hill from {4} I arrived at GZ and found a great cache hide. It was a bit damp inside the container but the double bagging of the logbook has kept it dry. Thank you Mister Doctor for placing and maintaining Roads Go Ever Ever On {5} Halls for us to find today.
Having reached the milestone of onethousand, at the nearby Mountains Of The Moon, iTEEM did journey still a little further to the east, and find Halls. A clever contrivance they did find, but one into which dampness had crept unbidden, between the threads of the container and it's seal of azure.
The book therein although dampened on the outer, was nevertheless well able to be inscribed with the pertinent details of our visit.
TFTC and the series Mister Doctor

Nice spot and well camouflaged. The log book is a bit damp though. Tftc and good luck others.
Very interesting cache. Logbook was damp. Needs Maintenance.

The girls had dog training at Knox so this gave me a couple of hours to find some caches before I had to pick them up again.
This is one of the caches found today. I started this series back in 21 but ran out of daylight to finish it off, today I finally completed it.
Thanks Mister Doctor for the cache.

With a keen eye the cache was spotted. Really impressed with the amount of cockatoos in this area!

To add a bit of interest to my caching, I tackle a variety of challenges... mostly ones that require a bit of effort over a period of time. One of my current challenges is **400 Challenge....with a twist**... where you need to find 400 caches on a particular day of the month. When I first looked at it, the 12th of the month stood out as I had at least 50 more finds on the 12th than any other day of the month... and so here we are on the 12th of month... time to find quite a few caches!
This corner of Vermont looked promising so after an early lunch, I parked my car just off Terrara Road and set off for what would eventually be a rather long walk... with **The Road Less Traveled** traveled and then a stop for a Spell of Magic, it was now time to set off to where **Roads Go Ever Ever On**...
A nice easy cache to find meant that my journey could continue to the last of the Trads... as rough as it was, I decided that as I had left my cart far behind, the direct approach was the best option!
Thanks **Mister Doctor** for this series.

Finally completed the roads go ever ever on series. Despite the heat we had a great time finding these caches! TFTC
Found it earlier today but forgot to log this! But if a walk through the area but lucky for us the long grass was cut!!! TFTC
Still following the roads going ever ever on, and finding caches along the way. So lucky in a way that this area was never used for what it was intended. TFTC and a sneaky hide.
A quick find here and found as it was getting dark.
We were able to make light work of the the final mystery and off to find the final!

Bunadoorian and I were on a mission this morning to try and finish this series. We parked nearby and made our way to this well made cache. After signing the logbook I sat down to work out the final's GZ. Now off to find it!! TFTC and the series Mister Doctor.
This cache was easier to approach as the area had been mown here too. I will give this cache a favorite point for as I like the effort involved. TFTC.
Got to GZ and wondered where the cache was. After several minutes of searching I came to the conclusion that it was just possibly under a pile of debris and recently demolished branches. It was certainly no where that I could see.
Which doesn't mean of course that I am not cache blind!

About six months ago, before the current lockdown, we completed some caches along the highway reserve starting at the Forest Hill Police Station, and the tallest tree cache. Time limits prevented us from going beyond the first series. So after yesterday’s cancelled outing due to , when the ️made an appearance this morning, we had our heading all set. Having three limbs of parklands to cover during our wanderings, we set a mid point and started out.
After trekking through the bush lands, not so common in urban areas, and all off track. We were amazed at the free land here. The cache also deserved some credit, looking so proud in its hiding spot.
