My first ever cache! Thank you heaps!
 
11-Jan-24
Found the cache box on the ground while walking the dog, so I poked it (the box not the dog) back in under the corner of the ramp. This cache tends to wander about a bit at times, so I think that's about the right spot. It does need some attention though.

This evening after work, I decided to head south and up into the hills to find a few target caches and complete the *Roam Around Blackwood* Adventure Lab. I had a nice evening walk in some of the parks, before then arriving to the heart of Blackwood, and walked around those historical buildings.

I ended up spending way too long at this location searching. I had a pretty good hunch to where to look, and this appeared to have been confirmed from a few past geocaching log photos. However as much as I tried different strategies searching under good torchlight from the ground, or walking up/down, I just couldn't find any sign of this cache. Perhaps it is missing, or perhaps I am just cache blind tonight, so I will await and see. Thanks anyway braybanks for the cache placement.

I spotted the cache whilst getting out of the car, kept it to myself to not spoil it for the kids!
The kids wanted to follow the GPS directions, it took them awhile (10-15mins) to get it and to find their way to the cache- but smiles all around in the end.

This year I am trying to fill in and many of the 83 calendar days that I am missing having found a puzzle cache. Surprised To date I have crossed out 18 but missed 7 so I was to eager to get a puzzle today. [^] So I enlisted the help of Anymules to come caching with me after he finished work. Big Grin

Anymules was running a little behind and for a change I was running a little early so I decided I could grab this one whilst I waited. Razz I had been meaning to stop and get this one for quite some time but always missed the turn off or way in the wrong lane or whatever. Not today and I parked close to GZ.[^] All that was needed was the correct elevation. [?] I figured up and so up I went and after a short search the cache was in hand. Smile

**Thanks braybanks for this cache. ** Big Grin

A short drive between cache in the area. I parked at the bottom and made my way up to the cache. Took a little search but saw it when crouching.

No real plan for today other than to collect a few caches south that I solved whilst back in Tasmania for the summer period, walking around in 40 degrees isn’t much fun although a substantial amount if water was taken which helped a lot.

Thanks for the cache.
