Found by Mary and David with the VIC1 group. Today we started with the Bon Accord track caches and several others around Harrietville. After lunch at the pub, we headed out of town to tyackle the F.L.A.K.E. cache, which we completed. We found few Trads and multis along the way, and finished the day with an Event at the Bright pub. Our thanks to Ronice88.

# 21654. 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.Lucky last for us for today. A very nioe hide here and now it's time to turn around and head back to the cars. A most pleasant time spent on the bikes.Thanks Ronice88

Ditched the car in favor of bicycles from now on. Had a very pleasant ride along the path grabbing these caches along the way. Thanks Ronice88

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.It is a bit alarming to see the changes over time of the glaciers.A nice bold hide, I haven't seen one this large before.Our turn around spot, just a few to do on the way back.Thanks, Robmc.

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 our last Flake for the day and cache no 27 for the day. Nice bold hide! After this we set off for Bright to get some dinner and found the icecream adlab pont. After dinner we then did 2 of the Harrietville 5 caches to bring our total for the day to 40 caches! Best day for ages - thanks for all the fun puzzles and hides you have put out in the area!!

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 at 9:03 AM GAFF1.After a big night with our grand niece and her partner at our Smoko camp it was off on a beautiful morning to do the FLAKE series - took a while to get into the swing of things, but the fresh air on my face as I pedaled at around 20 kph soon sobered me up.These two step puzzles are a bit tricky!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 was another which I cannot take the credit for. The find was a bit easier than the puzzle
