I solved this puzzle a few days ago, today we took the opportunity to go grab a few SOTN caches in the area. On arrival at the GZ a quick scout about and the cache was soon in hand. Signed the log and placed the cache back into its hiding place and off to find the next one. TFTC I’m really enjoying completing the SOTN series. Very Happy

Perfect weather and perfect opportunity to get the kids out of the house for a couple of hours. We turned this into a numbers race. It was Team Kyi vs Team Ash. SO the race begins. Dancing

This was found by Team Kyi.

Thanks for this series 2y's we are enjoying the series. ClappingClan Cerberus

TFTC.
Took the longer way to walk to this cache, and then it took me quite a while to actually find cache.
Found this cache on a 2 day trip to the NW, covering over 1000 kms and finding around 100 caches of both GCA and GC

This was one of many on my "hit List " for the day which started at 8am and I returned home at 10pm and I walked over 14000 steps. I was intending to do Parkrun in Railton but that was cancelled due to high winds and the danger of falling limbs. Not the best start to the day I hoped that this wasn't indicative of my day. My main aim was to get as many thorn attributes as I could for a geocaching challenge and to fill a few gaps in my GA matrix if possible. This was a matrix filler as it was a Podcache and I picked up a couple of caches nearby as well. However I think I will be back as I have a feeling there are more SOTN caches around here. I have solved most of them but not yet plotted a course to find them so I will be back better prepared for another onslaught. TFTC 2y'stassies. You certainly have been very busy, thanks for all the effort you put in so others can enjoy the sport of geocaching.

Next stop along the road and again there were a few options for the GZ. Finally managed the right one after sticking the GPSr in my pocket and just looking around. Another area where I was glad it wasn't raining.

Thanks for the good size caches...easier to find today.

Many thanks for another top cache 2y'stassies...cheers ST.

This would have to be my favourite pod cache so far, so I had to find it today after attending two fantastic events on Goat Island. I also needed a pod for a scavenge as had found all the others in the State prior to the scavenge release. Deserves a favourite, everyone should listen to the audio file. TFTPC

This cache was our reason for being on this road. We had to forfeit the ones further no today and wait until the next visit. It took me a minute to find this one but all good. Today I was glad my car is front wheel drive, it made turning here easier.

For us, today was all about the two (originally 5/5) events on the coast, that was the reason for our trip up. While we were up there we planned to find a few other caches to top up our meagre contribution to the States of the Nation Game. We managed a handful on the coast and one or two more on the Highlands Lakes Road, finding all but one (I need to check my cords on that one).
My apologies for the copy and paste log but if I have any hope of finishing and claiming some scavenges, it’s my only hope.
We found all containers in good condition and really enjoyed our time at the events this morning and our various finds during the rest of the day.
Thanks to the various cache owners of our finds today (mainly Tassie Trekkers and 2y’stassies).

After another day at work it was time to get down to the real business of caching. Had solved some more puzzles after last night's expedition so we set off with a target list. We searched for and found six caches, all FTF's. Dancing This was our first podcache so a little bit exciting! A quick find once we got to GZ, mr sharnie's tribe did the deed and then we set off for the next one. TFTC and a cute podcache
