What a fantastic picnic spot. Thanks for the invite to join the fun here . We are from WA
Took a step back and soon spotted it. Found while staying overnight at the campsite, TFTC
Thanks NickandAbb for hiding this cache and giving us some fun chasing it down This was find number 1,013 for us We are traveling Australia full time in a Coaster Bus and of course grabbing some caches along the way.

Great looking camp spot and nice quick find here - yay!! Just read the log of people who also logged yesterday, what a lot of incorrect assumptions made . Muggle referred to was my husband and the direction initially followed was to check info on the council sign, I had a pen but went back to car to edit the incorrect WikiCamps write up. TFTC
The GPS seemed to point in the opposite direction but looking at the map we knew where to go. Was waiting for the camping muggles to be involved with dinner time activities when a vehicle turned up and a cacher hopped out looked in a couple of directions with her phone went back to the vehicle for a pen we assume and then headed in the right direction. Followed the hint and got the cache and replaced it as a muggle was walking around. Not very stealthy. Lol TFTC
Hi NickandAbb
I really enjoyed this spot
The river scenery was spectacular.
It started to rain here so the search was fast and furious
Thanks for bringing me to a spot not been to before
A few muggles arrived whilst I was here but they did not interfere with the cache hunt
TFTC and cheers

Went for a bit of a drive up through Gunns Plains and back down past Riana to Penguin after work today cos why not. Been quite awhile since I been up here (have relatives in the Plains on both sides of the river) silly me didn't think about phone reception and forgot to take some just incase screenshots. Lucky I had enough I could navigate to the green oin then search blindly from there. Didn't take very long to come up with the goods. There was some nearby campers but they didn't have line of sight to where I was thankfully. Cache in excellent dry condition.
We spent the long weekend in the area working through some geoart and anything else that caught our attention.
Dropped into this park after a pacman geoart and nabbed this one while we were here. Lucky for us the people hanging out in the park were blocked by the building so we could. TFTC

We decided to tackle a few caches that have been published and this was one of them.
We have been here before, a great place to revisit, had morning tea with a lot of camping muggles. Cache and contents were in good condition.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Out exploring the area around here while visiting Tasmania on holidays.
TG's keen eye and persistence paid off in finding this one.
I'd searched the obvious place and initially couldn't see anything so I focused my efforts elsewhere.
Then I heard the call "found it".
It looks as though a lot of water had been through here as the cache was well under the rock and covered in mud. It actually took a while to get it out.
Eventually we did, all was good with it and our names now added to the log.

Third of our four finds today and a fairly quick one. Couldn't do as the clue suggested though or would have got a wet backside.
Only one lot of fishermuggles in the area when we were there today but they were well away from GZ luckily.
Thanks.

Today we went to look for this cache and three others, our first cache hunt in Tassie since returning from the mainland during the week. Accurate coordinates and an obvious hiding spot led to a quick find although we used a stick to extract the cache container as the area was very wet. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks NickandAbb for the cache.
A bit further down the road to Bannons Park where a neat cache was soon found. All in top nick.
Many tftc....thoroughly enjoyed...cheers ST.

Saw this and a couple other new caches appear the other day. Watched to see if people were out and about, but the weather was sooo.... shockingly windy, cold and wet that three caches in this area remained unfound at 10am Monday. Arrived at 11.25am to claim a FTF. Its been a while for us ! Thanks for a good sort of cache, in good "nick" NickandAbb.
