A last minute decision to grab this one was made as we were so close. Cache is in great condition. Thank you for the fun

A plan was hatched to go for a walk in a reserve nearby to collect a geoart series but we couldnt come this close to an oldie without detouring to find it as well. All good here. Thanks happyharries

An Oldie, an Oldie! It was a bit of a walk, but sooooo worth it. Slowly but surely another in the top 100/ 500/ 1000 oldies challenges.

I had solved a bunch of puzzles in this area as Kolour and I had discussed caching in this area. A quick find here today.Thanks for the cache happyharries.

After finding quite a few puzzle and trad caches in Belmont bushland, we drove to this nearby area to find a few more caches including this one. I was needing one more large cache for a challenge and this was the one. We wandered along the track and then our phones were pointing us to beyond the Do Not Enter - Shooting Range signs. Hmmm, thats not good but luckily the nice big ammo tin wasnt far in. All in good condition and lots of swag. Tftc

28/6/2023 Find #6203
A bit of a random middle of the day out and about for me today. I had grabbed a cache or two closer to the city, and then checked my map for what else I could target. The older caches particularly grab my interest.
This one has sat on the list for ages waiting for me to come collect. I almost did on at least two separate occasions, and have driven past figuring it just wasn’t the time for one reason or other. Well today that just has to change.
Parking the car, I was happy to have a bit of a walk to this one, with absolutely zero muggles around. It didn’t take long for those numbers to come down and I was closing in on GZ. With a distance of about 15 off track metres to go, the signs and the sounds of distant shots certainly are a little nerve wracking, but I could see where the hide would be, and I could out-fox this one, right?
With kangaroos bounding away the other side of the track, I bounded in, and before I knew it had pounced on my prey!
Log signed I was then making a mad dash out of there before the hunter became the hunted.
Thanks for the cache happyharries.

Is it still possible to locate this cache? As Sitting Duck 2 was archived earlier this year. Robyn Hood is still active however.

Out this way again and this old one was collected as we missed it last time around.

Back today after missing out a few weekends ago! Quick find and great swag! TFTC

On completion of my hike with E_Smiley followed by a quick refreshment, we started on the right then left side areas of tracks to hopefully pick up a few more smilies for the day.

Thanks happyharries for another beaut find out in this beautiful part of Qld, always lovely to find an old hidden cache

Fox Hole
1.5/2.0
Large
Mystery Cache

Had the coords for quite some time. Today was a quick find while we were in the area.

Thank you for the cache happyharries.

I have had the co-ordinates from Robin Hood and Sitting Duck 2 for quite some time but just never seem to get around to making it a pretty smiley on my map.
I decided I'd better make a move and collect this one just in case it gets archived because the clues can no longer be gleaned from the two caches in question.
After a pleasant walk inand with the metres declining to double figures I was gearing myself up for the hunt.
Then I saw the signs saying 'live firing' no admittance (or words to that effect). I couldn't hear anything so figured it was safe.
I was within 30 metres when the 'pop' 'pop' 'pop' started. It sounded like it was a long way off so I continued and within minutes had found cache.

I would have liked to sit on the log and read all the old logs but I thought it wise to sign log quickly and then skedaddle out of there. It was at this stage that my pen decided to fail me. I used some ash to scratch my name...Then I saw a pencil in the well stocked cache so hastily went over my ash scratchings to make it a little more legible.

It would be a shame if this does get archived as the final is in such good condition.

Thanks happyharries for the cache.
Thanks for another oldie️
As an aside, I stopped in for a coffee on my way home at a cafe named Cache Cache at Rochedale

Robin Hood no long has the clue on it and Sitting Duck is missing. This cache cannot exist without those two in operation.

The two clue caches are no longer showing clues or are lost

Lovely to find this old one out on our trip south. We needed a little help to get to the final of this one, as it seems that at least one in the prior series is now gone.
Thanks happyharries for this one. Looking forward to finding more of your hides in brisbane.

Morning walk, holing the lockdown will lift by 5pm
Had the puppy in tow, she was super excited to be out in the bush.

As for the puzzle I got help with one et of the coordinates.

All good at the GZ, petty that an old-school cache like this cannot be found without help.

Thank you for this generous cache

Glad to have this one.

TFTCache happyharries

After work trip to the south side to log a few caches I’ve been meaning to claim whilst I still can.

Tftc

Out for a bonus swing around the Southside hills, with oz_bean_counter collecting smilies all day. Was keen to nab this one due to its age, and having visited the two sub-caches we were all good to go find our missing Fox. A lovely piece of bushland, and in the afternoon cool (and rain clouds starting to form), the walk was just lovely.

The constant gun firing sounded awfully close, and on arrival to GZ we see that going 'that' direction could be hazardous to our health and well being. Cache is fine for us though, and gave us no resistance.

Thanks happyharries for entertaining me at this location.
*{Overall find #7879}*

One of the 26 caches / labs for the day, out on an epic caching adventure with Pprime to celebrate his 1000th puzzle cache.

This one was on my radar because it is quickly approaching Q500 status. It is also a large cache, which will help me with the large cache container challenge that I nearly (but don't quite - two to go!) qualify for. There were no muggles at GZ, and we had this piece of bushland to ourselves as we set out towards GZ.

After a short walk, the cache was shortly in hand. Lovely cache container - my favourite type! There is nothing better than the sound of an ammo tin being opened . The proximity to the nearby shooting range was a bit unnerving, and I was happy to get out of there and back to safety.

TFTC and TB visit x2

Thanks to the CO for helping out with a missing clue... that enabled us to park at the appropriate place and take the walk to find this relevant container considering the warning signs... tftc... left some American coin and Niagara Falls TB to carry on... liberated the Tb that’s been here for awhile...

Thanks to Peppa for bringing me on this Adventure. Grabbed the two caches to get the co-ords for this one. Quick paf to the CO to get some missing co-ords. Stacks of swag to look through. Thanks for the cache.

Grabbed the coordinates last year but since moving out of the area I haven't had a chance to come finish the cache off. Well today is the day, after a nice trek into the woods and not too much bush bashing I had the cache in my sights. Signed the log and admired how full the cache is with swaps. Fave from me and left a trackable to continue its journey. TFTC happyharries!

Yay.....done all here today.
Thanks for placing these.
Had fun out on my bike.
Took me a little while to locate entrance to park. But once I did it was an easy find with lots swappable.
Now to cycle back to carindale...
Thanks

Collected the second piece of the puzzle just down the road, combined the two bits and voila had a set of coordinates. Was looking forward to a quick park n collect cache so I could get to the Goldie but that was not the case.

Parking found one obvious spot that didn't say or look 'private' so in I went. Half the walk was in good conditions then went bush bashing for the remainder of the trip to GZ. Did spot a wallaby but no foxes. Thanks for maintaining this oldie happyharries and a good stash by everyone else that has visited.

I thought today was going to be a lazy day …
Little did I realise, Mrs VC had other plans!
Now, here I sit logging another 20 caches. LOL …

I'm already in here chasing down another cache so it would be remiss of me not to come just a little further for this one.
The walk was actually quite pleasant & not too hard on this old fella & I soon found myself closing in on GZ.
WoW!
Great sized cache container chockers full of swaps.
TNLN made our mark & replaced as found.

TFTC happyharries

Happy to be having a day off, so a plan was hatched to head to the bay area and find some long-ago solved puzzles, older or unloved hides, unusual types and DTs, along with any others that happened to be located along the way.

Having found one of the required caches previously but not gathered the required info, today a visit to both caches was needed in order to find this one.

Approaching along the track I could here the boom boom of weapons firing, followed by massive cracks of thunder and lightning from a gathering storm. I found the cache and literally the moment I returned it, the heavens opened with some drizzle.

I had intended to visit a trad 500m away but being a fair way from the car, didn't want to get hammered, so I wrapped up the days caching after this one and I just managed to get to the car as the heavy rain started falling.

Busy day caching 2 CITO few caches in between TFTC

Really pleased to have found this large cache as we are aiming to complete the large cache challenge soon, the dogs and us had fun bush bashing our way to the gz tftc

Out for a rainy afternoon jaunt with Sambucca Sam and we stopped here for me to get this one.
All well and log signed.
TFTC happyharries

After dropping hubby off at the airport this morning, I decided to go for a walk and grab a few caches on the way home.
I had found the required caches to get the final for this one ages ago and needing large caches to complete a challenge, this was my target cache.
A pleasant walk in the bush and after a short search, found this cache full of bounty.
SL then returned as found.

Found on 25 November 2018 at 9.15am. TFTC happyharries

I had found the 2 caches with stash notes to find this cache so long ago and often thought I need to find this one. Today after work I was dinosaur hunting nearby and decided to find this one . Enjoyed the walk here and spotted the cache quickly. Some great swaps in this cache. Giving this a fp for the fun

With the clues picked up earlier we set sail up the path towards GZ. I spied a massive cobweb at the entry to the trail which we scurried around. On the way out my daughter forgot it was there and cleaned it up with her face for future cachers. Sucker!

We saw a baby kangallaby near the creek crossing and when we saw a slight hill in front of us, I knew my daughter would soon start complaining. With 500m to go as the crow flies I suspected there might be other hills and my ears would start burning. Well the complaints didn't start until the walk back and my wife did have to say to her that "you really are a whinger aren't you".

When I mentioned the name of the cache, my daughter had the phlog (photo log) idea cued up. There was some temporary fox filter on Instagram that needed to be incorporated, and she loves everything fox. Well fox me!

The cache was soon uncovered and I was glad that I had the geo-bumbag on because I indulged in a huge series of swaps as the cache contained an entire platoon of army men. I was about to set up a fake war battle but right on cue, the gunshots in the distance started and we knew it was time to retreat in case one of those shooters was a sh*t shot. tftc

Found it. It's been a long time since finding the others, so was good to finally find and sign it.
TFTC

Dug myself into a fox hole with this one!

Couldn't find one of the prerequisite caches. Consulted Aussie Pete then remembered I had found it back in 2014 without recording the clue.

Return visit to pick up the information. Now with the co-ordinates settled the journey to GZ began. A short stopover to enjoy some barbequed RIBSAVO made the trek more bearable.

GZ reached, Gosh "look at all that ammo", the container is full it's contents dry and in good condition ready for the next battle.

... TFTC happyharries

Easy puzzle to solve, more like a Multi. Off for a walk through the bush, well made track almost to the cache, just a little off the track at the end. No sound of guns but it is safe anyway as there are houses not far away and the guns are about 2 Klms away. Signed the log and took TB, replaced cache as found. TFTC

I've had this one in my solved folder for several months now! The reason being I decided I'd save it for one of the qualifying caches for the February challenge. So this is now my "F" for February
I parked a bit further away from this one than what I needed to, but I always keep telling myself I need the exercise
Once at ground zero I made a quick find. Nice to find a well stocked ammo tin [^]
I extracted the log book and dutifully signed and added today's date to it. Then everything was replaced back as I had found it. All ready for the next puzzle solving geocacher to head in here and find it [8d] I'd noticed that the two previous caches in this series where in need of some maintenance with regard to logbooks and clues etc. So I've fixed them up for now
I dropped off a trackable (one of mine) for someone else to help it on with its journey. Hopefully it will travel far and wide, and be safe from getting muggled [?]
Then I was off to see if I could find a nearby traditional while I'm in this particular neck of the woods.
Took nothing, left TB, Signed log. Thanks for the cache happy harries

Another gorgeous location, and a beautiful peaceful Sunday out here. Thanks for the effort of putting this little series together

After finding a nearby cache, it was a good time to venture onwards to the fox . This was a very straightforward walk via trails with only the last 30 metres a slight bush bash so don't be put off! We also heard no guns going off, a very peaceful day on the trail. We had the necessary info for this puzzle for a few months, it was a matter of timing on when to collect with the other caches nearby so I'm unsure about one of coords missing. This was a great cache, shame we just missed the TB's! FP from me. Tftc ‍️

Visited Foxhole today while in the area. I thought I would retrieve the TB'S from out of there that I put in 2 months ago. I think it may have been a bit too safe for them and not visited enough and I have seen that the coordinates are missing from Robyn Hood. I actually found the easy way in this time and not the scary bush bash I did the first time I found it...you play and learn...lol. All good here happyharries nice and dry still.

Omg that was the scariest cache yet and I have done a fair share of bush bashing already. I was not sure how to approach this one or what was private property. But I just ended up walking up that bitumen driveway till I got close to the house then went bush bashing. Gun shots going off I found myself walking kind of crouched down. And a little white dog came and barked at me. Shhh shhh still sneaking here. Found the ammo box signed log. Left 2 trackable cause I thought pretty dam safe here from muggles and newbies.

Having found the necessary caches a few days ago, today after work, I headed to this one. I parked the car and made my way along the tracks to GZ. Once there, the cache was quickly located and the log signed. I like caches similar to these ones. TFTC

THis was a nice jog through the dirt track - thanks for the morning exercise

I've been waiting to do this one for a while and February is great time for the find. Found a parking spot which I thought was going to be difficult but wasn't. The geohound and I enjoyed a nice couple of hours in this area. Thanks for bringing us here. TFTC.

I didn't really want to venture off the trail with the sound of gunfire in the distance and all the signs around warning that I was a shooting range. Luckily, it wasn't too far off the trail. I logged it and headed as fast as I could away from there. TFTC happyharries

I had completed one of the required traditionalise some time ago but found myself returning to grab the clue for this guy again today. Not long after putting the pieces together off I set with fellow cachers in tow.

A bit further afield than I thought and despite the warning signs posted I found myself out there with the prize in hand.

Container and contents all in good order.

TFTC happyharries

This cache is AWESOME. It is how I remember caches in the good old days (2007). Very big caches stocked to the brim with big trinkets like staplers, DVD's, plastic kids toys etc. The kids enjoyed seeing the treasure very much. I'm awarding this a fav point for the actual cache and contents as well as the very pleasant stroll to GZ in beautiful bushland. Thanks Happyharries.

What an awesome adventure! Found the two coordinates and the final destination (Fox Hole) in one day! Good effort by my little team

Wow what treasures!!

Having found the pre-requisite caches and clues for this one a long time ago, I promptly lost one half of the coordinates. I was going to revisit the missing bow in my arrow, so to speak, when a friend provided the necessary information.

Today, I took the geo-retriever puppy, Rosie, for a little walk all the way around this particular piece of bushland. Along the way, she turned her nise up at If's sausages, and then chased a fox down a hole.

Just love these container. Absolutely bulletproof . Thanks for the puzzle, happyharries.

I gained half the coordinates ages ago but lost them somewhere. Then I found the other one more recently, but had to re-find the first one today to gain the full set. I'm glad I didn't try to just Jetski the final with half the set as I reckon it would have taken quite a while in difficult terrain. The cache itself is still in awesome condition with heaps of swag and an interesting logbook from way back. I scared the stuffing out of a little roo on the track who probably doesn't get much company out here. All good so TFTC.

Although we visited the other two preliminary caches in January, this is the first opportunity we have had to come here. After Thursday's and Friday's torrential rains, the track is in relatively good condition, i.e. no wet feet!

I spotted this one had not been found for some time and would be of benefit for the unloved challenge. I had one clue from the Duck and just picked up Robin.

Putting the co-ords into the GPS, I parked nearby and made my way in along the trails with the geodog. A nice day for it too - not too hot and sunny.

At GZ, I was very pleased to see the container, tucked in and safe and sound. All contents dry and safe after nine months. TNLN

TFTC happyharries

A beautiful day to be out & about around this area... Decided to take in Cleveland and surrounds today...
An area to which I had never been before...

Nice to able to cross this off after finding the other pieces of information required… A nice area to go for a stroll...

A bit of a search, made the grab, signed log & replaced...

Thanks for bringing me here happyharries and for the cache...

Out for a morning caching run around the Belmont area and managed to grab the 2 other necessary caches to find this one. Proceeded on from a nearby cache and made a quick find. Cache found safe and well. Tftc.

Well I had the coordinates for this cache so I pulled up at a likely spot and made my way into the cache.
I just rounded the bend and a peacock was wandering down the track from a nearby house and was going into the bush to look for food.
I headed to GZ and soon located the cache.
All in good condition and I signed the log.
Headed off back to the geomobile and must have taken a wrong turn and headed up in a place I did not recognise so I backtracked and found the right track out.
The peacock was calling out looking for his lady love.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks happyharries All good with this cache
A favourite from me

Having both clues for this one from this morning, pulled up on the roadside, looking for an entrance to the bush reserve.
There it was, and following a fence bordering someone's yard I started the few hundred meter walk towards the cache.

It was an easy walk, and at the GZ there was one very likely location for the container. A bit of circling around, and the goodies were uncovered.
There are lots of swaps in the container, and all in great condition here.

On the way back took a slightly more direct route out, through a more official looking, bright yellow gate, averting the need to walk past anyone's yard.

TFTC, TNLNSL!

Finally got this one. A nice trek to start the day. Beware of the ants! TFTC

On a day of Puzzles with the Geo parents LHE Duo.

This one was something of a joint solving effort, as in the past I had found both cache that were required for this one, and remembered to gets coords from one, but then missed the coords in the other.

So after their own visit to the cache I had lost the coords from. I was with Mrs LHE Duo, when she found the other half the coords. Turns out though they were wrong, very wrong and putting them together had the cache somewhere in the Tasman Sea.

Knowing better I had a quick word with a fellow cacher who had previously got the required information and confirmed they were wrong, and got the correct coords. (Which have now also been rectified in the cache down the road).

So today made the short little walk in to this one, and made the find in no time at all.

TFTC

I located the coords for this cache many many moons ago, so not sure why I didn't pick this one up. I have already logged the nearby Mr If cache.

So... after a fail at a nearby puzzle, I headed in to look for this cache. Mr Garmin and I strolled past the nearby cache, popping in briefly for a snag, and headed on to GZ.

The coords were bang on and I spotted a likely hidey hole through the trees

An easy find and a nice big cache that was chockers with everything from toy plastic soldiers to a Garfield DVD. I kid you not! I poked around for a couple of minutes and signed the logbook. All good here.

TFTC happyharries, a neat hide!

Second of four finds today at 14:40.

I worked out the co-ordinates for this cache last year, at around about 400 finds. I thought it appropriate that given I was in the neighbourhood today for pistol and rifle shooting at SSAA that I make the trip down the road to find this cache.

After finding somewhere to park along the road I spotted the cache and started the walk. On the way I spotted a kangaroo. The co-ordinates proved to be correct and I located the cache safe and sound (except for the spider on the cache), to the sound of gun fire in the distance.

While the cache was full of swaps I only signed the logbook.

Glad to have turned a ? into a smiley face.

TFTC happyharries

Out and about with teamdfl on another of our Mad Fridays

I'd had got the clue from Robin Hood way back in April (and I'm very glad I kept the photo [^]) and picked up the clue from Sitting Duck 2 today, so dfl and I took the stroll to GZ so I could claim this one as well. The co-ords were spot on, and it's great to see such a large container. All in good condition. A few gunshots still happening from the range as we walked in. TFTC, happyharries.

I had found the other caches needed to find this cache a while back, but had never had the time to finish off the set. Today was a great day to do so, as I was running an errand on the darkside and had time to kill. I organised to meet up with Captain Terror to find a few caches, this was the second one on our list.

After a muddy, very slippery walk, trying not to be run over by the local hoons in their 4WDs. We arrived GZ. After a quick hunt I found the cache and the Captain and I sat down to inspect the contents and sign the log. While we were doing this the 4WDers were having a ball trying to get their bush bashing vehicles up the steep slippery slope. Well, that was fun to watch!!! A cache and a show. Not sure some of them knew what they were doing? After they had departed we headed back out of the bush.

TFTC happyharries

This icon has forever stared at me from the map. I managed to find one of the required for the co-ords, but as the other has been archived longer than I've been caching I came about the second half of the co-ords by alternative means. For a while now I've been meaning to get out and grab the cache.

This afternoon after the big wet all weekend, Nyssaflutterby and I decided to dash out and grab it. The walk was most pleasant, I always enjoy the bush after a lot of rain. So did the lads 4WDing about the mud tracks, spraying mud all over the show. Not far from GZ they were pushing their vehicles to get up a very slippery slope. I imagine we were all watching each other wondering what the other was doing.

The co-ords led us to a likely spot and as is always the case, Nyssa spotted the container. We sat on a handy log to watch the 4WD fools and sign the logbook. I's not often I do but I had a look through the swag inside and the logbook and all is dry. Can always trust an ammo tin to do the job. All done it was time to head back out. The muddy track again gave Nyssa some issues with the whole walking thing, but we got there in the end. TFTC happyharries, a very nice spot for a cache, good company and a pesky icon gone from my map

Great series of caches! Have never noticed this section of bushland before. Thanks for the cache happyharries!

Having grabbed the last of the clues, we make our way for this one. Enjoyable walk in. Cache located and log signed. All in good condition.

Cache replaced and time to make our way out. Missed the first track, but eventually found the exit.

TFTH

found clue number one on our last visit
now have clue number two in hand
so off to the fox hole we go

really nice walk in
hmmm...now to find our way out

love the area

took vegemite stickers
left green ribbon

left moron the frog

Grabbed Robin Hood and Sitting Duck 2 on our way south, so we had to stop for this cache. A nice walk, but the closer we got to GZ, the closer the shooting sounded - don't these people have day jobs?
We could see why it was called fox hole!
Nice sized cache.
Thanks, Robmc.

Gee there seemed to be a lot of action on the nearby range today, hate to hear it on a busy day!
The walk in seemed a bit disconcerting though I am sure we were well out of range.
Thanks for this one happyharries.

# 823. The third one done and dusted are retrieving information from the previous two. At this stage of the afternoon I was getting a bit weary and am sure any shots getting toooo close would have woken me up nicely. Thanks for the cache.

Having seen that Mastamak had undertaken this cache I thought it was best I get my A-into-G and get out and collect this cache. I had all the required co-ordinates for the hunt, I acquired these with BeePa my Father-In-Law, I think I have him hooked on Geocaching.

It was too be a lonely trip to GZ, as GeoSon was away and GeoDaughter was out at a friends for the day. I don't say Lonely in a bad way, it was great to be able to go for a walk with just nature and the odd Shot ringing from the nearby shooting range.

Before I knew it I was at GZ, I started my hunt and found in one hidie hole a set of eyes looking back at me, my inquisitive mind got the better of me and I took my touch out to have a better look (just to make sure it was not a well camo'd Geocache). I was greeted my a sleeping frog boy was he big.

I had walked pass the cache 3 times before I managed to discover it's disguise! I knew at least I was not going to leave today without finding it. The Cache and log are in great condition and dry!

It was a great venture out for the short time I was out!

TFTC

Found Robin Hood and the original Sitting Duck a long time ago but never got around to finding this cache.

The skies had cleared so thought this morning would be a good time to find it. Had to revisit Robin Hood and find Sitting Duck 2 first.

A nice would through nature although the track was quite wet after all of the recent rain.

Cache contents were still nice and dry though.

TFTC.

A day out and about in the area collecting smilies.
I have now found both halves of the information necessary so it is time to finish this mini series off.
A quiet little walk to this one.
Thanks for the cache. Cache is dry and in good condition.

Well having obtained the information from the two traditionals, I ventured off today after work to get the final in the series. It was quick a pleasant walk along the trails in the afternoon glow.

Cache was quickly found and the deed done.

TFTC happyharries

This is another one of these series that "I had done but not collected clues for". A little birdy told me the co-ords I should have collected.

I decided to drop in to grab this one. I needed to get out for a bit anyway. It was an enjoyable walk to GZ - all be it a tadly wet. I eventually got to GZ and spotted the cache very easily - it was a bit exposed.

The cache is in great condition, however. I signed the log and re-hid it a little better. An enjoyable little series and a nice area. TFTC happyharries

Great walk through a lovely piece of bushland. Found easily enough. Took nothing, left nothing. TFTC.

We found the treasure box! We couldn't believe how stocked it was with goodies to trade! We all grabbed one item each: Geodad took the beer opener, J took the chalk and K took the Australian pouch! We traded in a DVD and some other things, as well as dropping off a trackable.
What a great bike ride surrounded by beautiful scenery. We were lucky enough to see 5 beautiful peackocks as well!
A great find with Jinxypus!

Thanks very much for the cache happyharries!

found it what a wonderful area with all the wild life we saw 5 peacoks (cool)found it with the despicable cachers TFTC

There are certainly a lot of unexplored paths in the area. Lovely stroll through the bush. Thanks happyharries.

Could hear the guns on the range. Swapped TBs

Had fun walk toward the cache.
Beautiful bush out there.

WOW Long track through Forest. Hide well..... We good fun walk everywhere... thank cheers

After securing the other nearby cache in the company of Svn07, she was kind enough to guide me in the right direction for this one. Very handy given that it is currently not possible to work out the final coords...

We searched a couple of likely hidey holes before snaring the loot but, didn;t spend too much time which was welcome as the day was not getting any cooler... [xx(]

The cache had an eight legged guardian right on the opening mechanism which prevented Svn07 from even attempting the log retrieval, but we overcame that with a little shake... [^] Once openned, I signed the log and retreived the two trackables that Svn07 had placed here last year... Sure the owners will be pleased ot see them back on the road...

This is a great little patch of bushland to wander through with so many hiding opportunities. A shame this cache is currently out of action.

Can I suggest some owner attention to bring it back online or maybe turn this one into a tradiaional and list the final coords. Such a shame to let it sit there without frequent hunts...

Cheers happyharries.

Happy to assist Gunnie to locate this cache....and liberate the TBs that had been languishing here so long. Amazing how one can remember a hide after so long and without the benefit of coords. This would make a perfect traditional.....great location, huge and well stocked cache, nice hide.

Hi, just wanted to let you know "Sitting Duck" GCZP91 was archived by the reviewer. Is there another way to get the co-ords for this cache? If so please post a note thanks. Searchwise015

After an early and most unsuccessful trip to the Dark Side this morning it was nice to finally get one! Have had the first clue for ages, looked for the second only to discover it had been removed that very morning due to some work going on. Resorted to "contact owner" as I wanted this cache ASAP. Nice stroll in through the bush. GPS seemed to be playing games this morning as it had me about 20m out. Anyway, found eventually. Signed log with the sound of gunshots ringing in the not to distant distance. Liberated Homer TB and placed Blue Cow TB and Jeep TB. Thanks for the hunt and the help happyharries - SVN07

Finally got to clear this little series from the books. With a cool autmn morning a grabbed the chance to stroll in an grab this cache and then to push on and take in the bay views of a rogainer cache another 30min further in. TFTC and the introduction to yet another great pocket of bushland which is even better as you go further in.

Have had the coordinates for this one for a while, but haven't had two seconds to myself to delve into the bush. I really have no idea how you find these great spots!! Took Geocoin. TFTC.

Rather a long walk in but I had the place to myself. Survey markers look old but some-one must have plans to develop adjoing areas when the price is right. TFTC

#2 of 9 finds on my second night on the 'dark side' of Brisvegas. I found this one at 1810. I had tried to get to this one last night, but chose the wrong access point in the dark. This time I guessed correctly, and had a pleasant walk in and out. The cache was an easy find, and is in good condition. When I arrived at GZ my GPSr said 0m! Coordinates don't get any better than that! [^] I made no exchange. Thanks to happyharries for the cache. Cheers, dak.

Bingo!!!! the kids a jumping with joy, thanks for the adventure.

Found 13/6/2007 @ 14:33 hrs. Great adventure having found Robin Hood & Sitting Dick yesterday we returned today to complete the task.

Lovely area and enjoyed the visit.

Finally got this one off my list. Easy find with two skippies keeping a watchful eye on me. Didn't even know this area existed, no guns being fired today all peaceful and quiet.

Gee that Mt Petrie Road is a blast. Good thing the police already had someone as I came over the hill on the way to the foxhole . I was a bit unsure about this one until I realised there were houses between me and the gun clubs, so going bush was okay. As long as you can hear shooting, you think it's coming your way. Nice bit of bush and good tracks, too. Saw a kangaroo on my way to the cache. Easy find after a plesant bike ride. TN/LN/SL.

Nice stroll through the bush today to pick this one up. The distant gun shots didn't seem to concern the local wild life - we saw plenty of birds and lizards and a couple of kangaroos.

The cache was an easy find. We took a pen and left a car. We also picked up the TB's.

Thanks for the cache!
