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.

Much puzzle solving and planning. Fuelled up after lunch. Log signed as VIC1. Found today with maccamob, Muzza, Alansee, micaparamedic, Rabbitto, feathertop and ThePacman.Thanks for placing the cache 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

# 21640. 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.Very nice camouflage on this one. We didn't notice the second container but once we spied the main player that was all that mattered. A pl;easant place to stop long the trail.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.No snow falling at this time of the year, so it was a pleasant ride to GZ and a nice cache.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 MMelb rang whilst we were searching. He needed the keys to GMelbs car (station wagon) to take a large table to a friends place.... only problem was we had both sets with us :-0 So he took 2 small tables instead in his car lol Like pprass mentioned, we found 2 containers at GZ. We replaced the main onne back where it was and ut the 2nd one in a crevice in the tree and will send you a photo. 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.

Found at 10:47 AM GAFF1.Not sure what is going on here, but found 2 caches containers here! One was a green bison tube with the names of the previous finders and the other was an original Ronice88 cache with no names in the log book.I'm claiming FTF on this one 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 a difficult one that I cannot take to credit of solving. Thank you to Ronice88 for such a great variety of puzzles

Found. FLTF
