A nice and sunny day to go for a walk and get a few caches. I didnt know about this track, and wouldnt have thought many others aside from locals would either, so was very surprised by the amount of cars in the carpark, it was completely full. Strangely, despite all the cars, we only saw one other person on the walk, a muggle and their dog who always caught up to us just as we had replaced the cache we had just found. A very quick find thanks to a good hint and coords. Great views of Bruny and Storm Bay.Thanks for the cache EeePees!

Thanks for the Cache EeePees,Having spent 3 delightful nights on Bruny it was time to go back to the mainland. We stopped at the boat ramp park for some lunch, then I was able to do a little cache spree. Just as I was signing the ferry came past, I guess that must happen a lot eh?Beaut walk, thanks for leading me there.Regards from Victourer

This was the last find for the series and we thought initially it would be a DNF as there were people sitting on the seat admiring the view and others down on the rocks! A busy spot but fortunately the cache is placed perfectly - far enough away that when I provided a diversion and barrier RoadieM was able to make the find. The log was found, stamped and replaced and they didnt notice a thing! While I was providing decoy the Bruny Island ferries crossed paths in the bay and I managed to get a snap. Thanks EeePees. We thoroughly enjoyed the walk and the series.
 
20-May-24
We started this walk at the Trial Bay end and have seen no people as yet, till now!A couple were sitting on the nearby seat and a family were frolicking on the foreshore. tassietan took photos and acted as decoy while I ducked in and grabbed the cache. We stamped the log and had the cache returned to its hidey hole with the muggles being none-the-wiser.Thanks for the cache and the series EeePees.

Today we have headed back to Tassie mainland after a week on Bruny. Weve had a splendid time although not too many caches to find and some beyond our capabilities. Loved all the walks though.So could not pass over a 2km walk with possible 5 finds whats not to love. Enjoyed the walk and all caches found in excellent condition. TFTC

There were a couple of muggles on the nearby bench so we headed down to the water and admired the view whilst watching the Bruny ferry depart. Thankfully they moved on after a short while and we then quickly found the nicely hidden cache. TFTC!Cheers,The Hancock Clan

Almost back to the car already but we've only just started chatting Wink Another nice cache from this CO, spotted some nice views along the way thanks

Today I was out caching back in Tassie after being on the mainland last week, but it was good to be back and as a bonus I was out caching with Tassie Trekkers, Whitewebbs and the Goose, it was nice to catch up with people as we made our way down the track and later as we found a few caches together, last cache of the day was a good one being a nice event saying goodbye to EeePees family, unfortunately EeePees is staying Surprised
Thanks for the cache.

This was the last cache we found before the event. There were muggles sitting on the seat and a bloke fishing off the point. Great! As we approached the muggle left and said it was our turn. Perfect! Mr TT made another find (I think I was just fodder today, not having contributed a lot to the finds) and we were soon on our way to the end of the track and WW awaiting car.
Thanks EeePees, I've been wanting to do these for ages.
 
17-Apr-21
While caching in the area we picked your cache up along the way with stainless-steel-rat and gooseandegg. A good walk around the point on a windy day. Great views of Bruny Island.

Cache and contents were in good condition.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

We thoroughly enjoyed our walk along this track. The views were great enhanced by the superb weather. Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks EeePees for an enjoyable caching experience. It earns a favourite from us for thr location and the xareful hide.

TFTC - good 4G signal, would make a nice place to work remote for a sunny afternoon
 
13-Aug-20
Out and about while the weather was looking good. We decided to venture this way to grab a few caches that have been published since our last visit to the area.

Lady membsec did the walking of the track and met many muggles and their dogs. What a lovely little track. Thanks for showing us this area. It was a nice calm day today. The cache was a quick find and all is well with the cache. Met up with male membsec just before this cache and we enjoyed the views from the seat nearby.

Another find! There's always a muggle though where you least expect it! Tftc a nice little series that I thoroughly enjoyed.
 
06-Aug-20
Another great spot. An old lady was sitting on the bench but didn't even move while we snaffled the cache next to her. Hope she wasn't dead. Many thanks.

Decided to go out for a geocaching adventure with the geokids today. Focused on the channel and so stopped to do this series. A quick find at GZ by one of the geokids. TFTC
 
21-Jan-20
Found it when staying at Hobart, on a trip to Bruny Island, during my motorcycle holiday across the marvelous Tasmania.
 
01-Jan-20
My first find! Yay!
Walking along the track I spotted that joke that Sealink have played on the islanders, Tasmanians and all visitors to Bruny Island. And as I stand here at GZ logging the cache, I see the other half of the joke.
But I digress.
A beautiful day here with just a hint of a cool breeze.
A quick find once the GPSr settled.
Thanks for the cache EeePees!

Lovely spot to rest and sign the log. Someone has decorated a tree near GZ.

Nice Christmas afternoon stroll in the sun. Someone had decorated the path with Christmas ornaments, and the views were nice too. Some issues dodging muggles, but all three caches found and logged.
Thanks

An early morning cache run while getting fuel before going to Bruny Island while StephLego and the kids were still asleep. Heaps of wallabies at this tike in the morning

Today Porkchop6977 headed down to our neck of the woods to pick up our two new caches and a few others in the neighbourhood. Although Mr & Little Miss Nataliec1234 had a birthday party to attend and we'd already picked up most of the ones in the immediate area, Mrs Nataliec1234 figured she'd tag along for the trip south down the Channel.

As such, this ended up being the first she picked up for the day. We're quite familiar with the area and had even discussed putting a cache in this exact spot previously, but I guess we were beaten too it! Not that we mind at all - it's a lovely spot for a cache, no matter who hid it! We've been known to spend a good hour or so here watching the Bruny Island ferry come and go and exploring the coast, so definitely an FP from us!

The cache itself didn't give us much trouble, so soon we were on our way to TBT#2...

Thanks for a perfectly situated cache!
 
30-Nov-19
Today I decided to find Nataliec1234's two new hides and hopefully a few more while I am down this neck of the woods. After finding them both I called round to NatalieC1234's for a coffee and while there she decided to go caching with me for the day. In all I found 18 caches and did some planning on another three. While NatalieC1234 did pick up five herself as they had done most in the areas before. Isn't she nice!! Mr NatalieC1234 and Princess A went to a birthday celebration so it was time for some serious catching up and caching. Both of us hadn't collected these caches EeePees but NatalieC1234 was a frequent visitor to this area with the Princess. It started to be a little damp along the trail but really nothing that a toyworld bag on the head wouldn't fix. This was a lovely view from GZ and we both remarked that a FP would be given here.

out and about with the RAFAS caching on a beautiful day, a wonder place to sit and watch the time go by or the Bruny Island ferry at least. nice views of the river and Bruny Island, got me thinking it was time to go over to Bruny Island and find some more caches. TFTC TNLN log dry.

Thanks.

After getting the Fathers Day celebrations done early we headed out for a caching run. We did the circuit down the Channel Highway and back through Huonville. A pleasant day with only a bit of drizzle. A great track to walk along. The car gpsr wanted us to catch the ferry and somehow arrive at this cache! We ignored "her" completely and parked further along the road and enjoyed the walk to all three caches. On arriving near GZ we checked the gpsr to find we still had 11 m to go but there on the ground in front of us was the cache. We rehid it as per the detailed hint. We could see scratch marks where it had been dug out by an animal including the cammo concealing it. Now onto the next. TFTC
 
28-Aug-19
Found! The rain was getting heavier now and I debated retreat after TBT#2 but then decided a little bit of rain wouldn't hurt us! A quick find. But then the dog managed to poke herself in the eye with a stick so a quick run back to the car to take her to the vet (all okay! No major damage!) TFTC!
 
27-Aug-19
Hello EeePees thank you for the cache.

I had to come down to Margate to pick up some tools.
By leaving straight after work I had some time to go and get your new caches before collecting the tools.
I knew of this track but hadn't been on it, thanks for the caches to get me to walk it.
After looking at the great view I went and found this cache of yours.
The GPS had me closer to the water but after looking at the hint I soon had it in hand.

Our cheetah’s scheduled soccer match for today was cancelled so we decided to go on another family caching outing. We love these ‘easy walk’ trails and especially those where seats are positioned along the way that let you sit, relax and take in the views. A highlight of our family caching days is always watching the competitive nature of the uncle and niece, who race along and try to be the first to find the cache, and of course arguing as to who saw it first. We just amble and enjoy the trail. Thanks for bringing us here, Eeepees, and for some more caches to add to our tally.
 
25-Aug-19
What a beautiful little track. We thoroughly enjoyed walking and caching here today.
Met up with ausandaus2 and the bear to find the TBT caches.
It was the cheetah who found this one quickly.
EeePees thank you for the cache.
 
25-Aug-19
I received the message about these new caches when we were both at work. As it was a beautiful sunny day, surely someone would find it before the end of the day, as happened. We still wanted to go and have a look as I had no idea about this walking track. So I went home after work to pick up the dogs and off we went, meeting S_38 at the start. Such a great way to end the day, thanks for putting the caches here, really great spot!
 
25-Aug-19
Stunning day for a cache walk and this turned out to be a great walk along the water front.

Muggle moves on quickly as I got to the cache.

Tftc and the walk.
