Got ya!

THANKS SO MUCH! This was our very first Geocache

Thanks for the cache and the nice fresh log book!

Thanks Smithwhitty, Ill check it out tomorrow and fix it up ??.

Cache has been dried off and cleaned up. Log book and pencil have been replaced. Cache has been re-stocked with treasure for the kids - please remember to **swap** if you are taking any 'treasure'. Happy hunting everyone! ??

Found it really easily, but its just filled with water and ruined

great and easy find! scouts honor

This was a "target of opportunity" whilst passing through the area. A quick find with accurate coordinates in a nice little spot.Signed the log, thanks for the cache, RedParakeet.

First cache find thanks

Great hiding spot! TFTC!

Hint helped make this a quick and easy find. TFTC

A quick find while walking back to the other nameless geolocation game event in the sunny City of Knox. Thanks.

Working in the area today, the storm expected still hadn't yet, but the wind had cooled the area down a bit. As such, with a few hours spare before needing to cook dinner, I thought I'd grab a few geocaches. Blind Creek was the selected area. It really should be called Hidden Creek, as there wasn't any sign of water. This was a lovely walk, and all caches found in good condition. Thanks for the cache, Red Parakeet.Hunter

Great

Very well placed cache!

Nice

Pretty easy find with clue but the nearby urine? Bag had me concerned: David

Nice cache in a great container. I enjoy these caches that are tucked away from roads and houses, and I don't feel like a dill for circling around and around. Thanks for the cache, RedParakeet.

Nice. Thanks

Thanks to RedParakeet for this hide.All good here today.A warm afternoon greeted us.

Nice quick easy find tftc

A nice easy find, good little hide. TFTC

Myself, fisherfamfive and AdamW were out to grab some recently solved puzzles and unfound trads in the area today. After taking the long way round after reading the map incorrectly, we made it to GZ and began our search. Cooper found this one after looking in a few spots, and we had the log signed. Tftc RedParakeet

Was struggling for a while on this one just to find out that Cooper from FisherFamFive was already holding it. TFTC

Out today with AdamWickenton and CammJT for an adventure around Boronia and the Blind Creek Trail to collect some newer caches in the area. A little detour off the Blind Creek Trail to find this one, once we made our way to GZ, it was a nice quick find. Tftc RedParakeet

Nice easy find. TFTC

Really cool spot

Decided to come past this one as we walk along the the Blind Creek trail. Easy find, thanks for placing!

TFTC found with a red bull can

The Cotters found this on 5/8/23. Nice hidie-hole!

Replaced the missing pencil. Thanks Robynonthego.

First Cache with Geodad

First Cache in many years, starting up with the kids

Quick find and in good condition. No pencil but had my own. TFTC

A short walk from a nearby street, the cache was found quickly but took a little work to extract it from the hide. TFTC

Having spent the whole day in bed, I finally got out and drove to the nearest cache to keep up the streak.

A bit of stealth was required since it was night at this point and activities were going on in the scout hall. Luckily it was a quick find in a nice hiding spot. Always good to see these nice sturdy containers instead of sistemas.

Happy to report that the cache is in good condition and the logbook nice and dry.

I wandered around in circles initially checking all the wrong objects. After widening my circle I spotted something and the cache appeared. Getting it out of its home took some careful maneuvering but the log was soon being signed.

Thanks RedParakeet for adding this cache to the worldwide collection for us all to enjoy.

GPS wouldn’t settle and threw me off, had me looking everywhere. Lots of cool holes and hollows . TFTC

??

Fun find! Cool swaps.

We were very impressed with the standard of the cache and good hide.
Congratulations we TNLN and SL.
TFTC

Lots of holes to look into. Beautiful cache, well stocked with goodies.

Great cache. Thanks Red Prakeet.

FTF the replacement log!! A nice easy find on a pleasantly meandering bike ride. TFTC

Replaced the log book, restocked with some geo-coins and geocaching keyrings. Please remember to swap for items of equal or greater value. Merry Christmas!

Found with @Taihoa

Found

This was a well secreted little pocket of land that the Scouts have here. The cache was found without any issues and we spent some time taking photos of some gorgeous peach cheeked birds that were chattering in the trees nearby. Thanks for the cache and the birds.

This was a strange little pocket of land that has obviously been well used for the community. We found the cache nice and quickly but spent quite some time here as we spotted some birds that we haven't seen before so photos had to be taken. Thanks for the cache.

Found it!

The grass was too ling for this hahaha

While on my way to the MEGA event in Whittlesea, I had the opportunity to get in a few extra days of caching beforehand. This got me to go to areas I would not have normally seen and to some awesome caches. Today I arranged to meet up with Snickersallan and we would do some caches around the area, fill in some grid spaces and look at some labs. We had fun chasing multi’s, although a couple did not work out even when the checker agreed with us. We got in a few caches around this area before we had to head back to a dinner event I had organised.

This one we managed to get in between the rain showers, just wait ten minutes and the sun will be back. Thanks for the cache and with the log signed and cache replaced as found we moved onto the next one in the area.

Visiting from Qld for the Whittlesea Mega and picking up a few districts in the mean time.
Thanks RedParakeet for the good hide here

I thought it was a hole in the ground, but that was really good. Also, I see why it's called 'Scouting Around'.
