No lucky thks 4 show me

Replaced cache

Sorry CoxFamily7310, after a thorough search I did not come up with the goods today for your Traditional, Coles Beach to Don Reserve #5. It may be worth a sanity check to see that it is still here, I have been known to be cache blind at times.

Hi CoxFamily7310. Today I/we attempted to find your Coles Beach to Don Reserve #5. Unfortunately, one of the following happened and that made us unsuccessful in logging a find :1. Hadnt rubbed all the sleep out of my eyes. 2. Hadnt had breakfast so was concentrating on filling my stomach. 3. Had someone else with me and they couldnt be bothered looking and wanted to leave. 4. Had muggles hanging around waiting for me to leave so they could relieve themselves. 5. Wrong time of day. 6. Wrong time of night. 7. Wrong information given to me about where the cache is hidden. 8. Coordinates out by more than 10 metres. 9. Nobody has blown up the nano factory yet. 10. Too much or not enough water / light / GPS signal. 11. Flat battery in navigation device. 12. Cache has been stolen / muggled. 13. Such a small cache hidden in such a large area (fake rock in a boulder field / pico in west coast horizontal scrub)14. Too far up the tree to reach with the ladder AND the pole. 15. Too far down the hole to reach with a magnet or grabby tool. 16. I gave up looking. 17. I need to be somewhere else soon/now/a while ago. No offence intended! One of these may actual fit my DNF on your cache.

This one beat us, although it might be worth a check as there's been a lot of vegetation planted at GZ recently. Most likely us just being blind though

Thanks, it was in a different spot but good

Dnf spent 10 mins looking, looking for in the dark

Our coords had us hunting around a few different man ferns but we found the cache fairly quickly. Found with LittleBoo17TFTC

Was about to give up when I went back in one last time and got it

TFTC. Everything in excellent dry condition

In Tassie for the next few months. So many great places to visit and so many different caches to find.It a beautiful area to enjoy a walk but so much rubbish, which is a shame. Thanks CoxFamily7310 for placing the cache and doing the maintenance needed, so we can find this cache.

This afternoon after giving blood we headed out for a stroll in Don Reserve to pick up a few caches. We looked for 14 and found 14 which was marvelous. I was a bit puffed minus my litre of blood so we stopped for a few rests along the way. We also bumped into Rhubarbroad which was nice and we had a chat with him. We also met some other cachers. Quite an afternoon.The weather today has been fabulous, the Tassie weather is really suiting this Pom!. Thanks to all the CO for placing caches for our enjoyment.Found at the first fern we checked TFTC

Beautiful area. Checked around ground zero, and knew what we were looking for but no joy. Enjoying the walk though.

Nice, thanks!

Great camo

CO Blindness I could find my own cache may have been that I got man fern dust in my eye. I have replaced the catch in a Brandnew container, now placed at the top of a man fern as the area is quite damp. If you find the old container please remove it and make a note of it

Another great find. TFTC
