I was in Harrietville for a few days with some muggle friends. It wasnt planned to be a caching trip, but you know how it goes. I managed to get out and do some hunting, mainly for the ones set up by Ronice88. Today one of my mates joined me, and he seemed to enjoy the fun. Thanks for all your work in this area Ronice.

Chewinprickles, BettyBoo3747 and I decided upon today to try some of the F.L.A.K.E. puzzlesSo we loaded up the deadly treadlies and set off for Harrietville.We had solved them all when they first came out, but had not got around to look for them. We had to look at the puzzles again as so many of the hides were well themed.Nice puzzles and great hides for this series.Just when you think you have a handle of which snake is which, a different markings comes along.No wriggle sticks spotted on the caching today.A nice themed hide though, well tempting anyway.Thanks, Robmc.

# 21647. The puzzle solver Robmc has had these done for a long time now. While the weather is still pleasant and with all the autumn colour in full force we decided to team up with Chewinprickles and have a nice ride and some harder walking to knock over this series.Fortunately we were lurking in the trees when a large group of cyclists headed back towards Bright. Not one of them noticed us even though 3 bikes were by the track. A nice hide here and now off to the next one.Thanks Ronice88

After a lovely relaxing lunch by the river and a change of clothes as it was warming up, we set off for an arvo of caching admiring the beautiful surrounds at different points along the way. This was the next for the arvo and was an easy find. We have the exact same cache type as our bonus cache at Shwerkolt cottage! PS didnt enjoy this puzzle topic lolol TFTC Ronice88 - GJMMelb

After a couple of days walking out and staying overnight at federation Hut , Mt Feathertop with Purplepeopleater. We had a go at doing caches around Harrietville and surrounding areas. With Puzzles solved and traditional cached to get, it made for a busy day of easy and not so easy terrain ratings. I will be back another day to finish off some of the ones we missed.

Down in the Victorian Highlands for a couple of days hiking and geocaching with DKMakka. Perfect weather and a welcome relief from the Sydney humidity.Solved the Flake Series in anticipation of our trip, and enjoyed the well themed and innovative puzzles. A lot of work has gone into the caches themselves and it was great to discover some monster size caches mixed into. An excellent series and loads of fun (and effort) Thanks Ronnice88, I will be back hopefully sooner than later to this wonderful area.SL TFTC

Found it! Mm, I cant remember how I solved the puzzle but I must have it Ive got the muddled up! Anyway I didnt find the cache on my first look but clearly saw where other ms had been looking on my way back I made a different approach and spotted my quarry straight away and soon had the cache in hand. Another well layered puzzle!? and cache! TFTC SL.

Found at 2:22 PM GAFF3.I couldn't find it when I went through 5 hours ago, but with the understanding after doing 29 caches of the CO - I just had to return and look for the cache and oh my goodness - is that a micro? Nice work.Thanks to Ronice88

I was out with kbucky today to collect the majority of the SNOMO series. It was a beautiful day to be walking along the Bon Accord track. The numerous bird calls really added to the magical atmosphere of this lovely setting. We had a very busy day, walking over 13km's and then a quick bike ride along the Great Alpine road to collect some of the F.L.A.K.E series. It was a coincidence that I met a local woman hiking on the Bon Accord track and then I met her again, and her husband, on the bike trail as they were also riding. We were surprised to cross paths twice in the same day.This puzzle wasn't difficult and as cachers we don't want to see any of these on our adventures. The find was a bit more difficult but I got there in the end

The day was starting to get away from us after our grand afternoon out up her chatting at the event and picking up some of the pre-solved puzzle caches.These last 5 were solved by the Queen on the fly this afternoon and when we picked them up we were surprised that we were only second to find on them.Each one was found OK in a really cool spot.Loved the different containers that the CO puts out up here, better than a sistema thrown under a tree.
