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 HappyClan Cerberus

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 Ash.

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

Wouldn't mind a dollar for every time we've travelled this road. Having a son that rode motocross for many years [and enduro racing and anything else that involved motorbikes and speed] had us frequenting this area often.
This one took a while to locate.
Thanks.

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

Solved this series when it first came out and found some on the weekend of the Goat Island events. We made a last minute decision to travel to the coast for the weekend and knocked off a few more today with whitewebbs and Tassie Trekkers whilst in the area. This was the third of five puzzles in this series we tackled near here. TFTC 2y'stassies

Quite wet here again with overnight rain adding to the heavy rain over the weekend.
At gz the cache was quickly found with cache and contents in top condition.
Many thanks 2y'stassies for another very enjoyable hunt...cheers ST.

Solved these puzzles last night and then sent mr sharnie's tribe out on a solo mission to hunt them down. Four caches on the list and four FTF Clapping This one was the third find for the afternoon at 2.20pm. A very warm afternoon on the north west coast today but always a great day for caching. This was the most challenging search of the afternoon, a few places that matched the hint but narrowed it down eventually. TFTC and the puzzle
