Hi Little Kitten
A very early start to today
Met up with Budge and headed toward Launceston
Our main objective for the day was Rocherlea Trail
But on the way we would get those that were accessable
Half way through the walk we contacted the CO who met up with us and then our plans changed and we had anjoyable afternoon in the good company of Icybeetas
Really good to meet you today Ian - Thanks for sharing you arvo with us
For the day I netted 33 caches and a heap of moveables to boot
That effort saw me walk 10.40 kilometres
This cache was found quickly - it was Sainted when I met Icybeetas
Thanks for another great caching day Budge
TFTC and cheers

Hi Little Kitten
After a night with little sleep, we left home early to catch up a great caching mate from the North West Coast
Moveables were exchanged, of which, this was one
Sainting the cache at 0845 hours
Sirius and I walked part of the Geilston Bay Track looking for caches along the way
It was great to see an cacher as experienced as he is at work - good experience
Thanks for sharing some time together this morning Sirius; greatly enjoyed and appreciated

dropped of with a mate along a country road while looking for another moveable
Now we can go out I decided to get some moveables. It was a frosty morning but a beautiful Winters Day. Well hidden and with accurate coordinates lead to a quick find. TFTC
After finishing some Christmas shopping we headed up to the Trevallyn reserve to hide a few moveable caches we've had with us for a few days, happy travelling
We needed a find today to fill a gap on our dragon zone calendar so had a bit of a look at the map to see if there was anything about within a reasonable drive. We spotted two moveable caches near Railton that'd been there a while so set off to see what we could find. Success with both of them after a bit of a search for an access point for this one. We'll move them on as soon as possible. TFTC
Moved this moveable today after some gps error pin pointing the hiding place.
Grabbed this little guy whilst out and about, will be placed out and about soon. TFTC

We've had these moveable caches for too long, apologies to the CO's. They're out and about again in the Ulverstone area waiting for their next move
In Launceston for family duties so thought we'd grab a moveable cache while the X10 points were on offer. We'd been very close to here last weekend but always a great reserve to visit. We'll move this one along again asap. TFTC
One of the moveables we found whilst exploring the area.

Journey or Destination
Game Period: 01-Dec-2018 00:00:00 to 31-Jan-2019 23:59:59 AEST
It is sometimes said [citation needed] that the game of geocaching is not about the destination it is about the journey. This game is about the choices you make in the experience of the journey or the destination.
On your entry to the game you will be asked to create a playing field with a number of ground tiles. Your playing field is a grid 20 x 20 ground tiles making a total number of 400 possible steps you can take on your journey or destination. You choose whether you want to find and follow the path or whether you wanted to meander around. A playing field is unique to each player so there is no benefit in teaming up to beat the system through brute force.
For each qualifying geocache that you hide or find during the game period you will be offered the opportunity to click on a ground tile and reveal what lies beneath. There are a number of different ground tiles that will be revealed when you click on your playing field. It should be noted that there are no punishments for clicking a tile but there will not always be the reward you were hoping for as you reveal each tile.
Dirt. The ground beneath the ground tile is just plain old brown dirt.
Dirt with some points. The ground beneath the tile is brown dirt but it has some points associated with it.
Concrete. The ground beneath is part of the pathway that will lead you on your way to your destination but has no point value.
Start. A concrete ground tile that has a blue map marker.
Destination. A ground tile that has a green map marker.
Meandering around and avoiding the path will accumulate points that will be used to place on you the ladder of wanderers. The more you stay off the path the higher the number of points you will accumulate and it will be your journey that will be the determining factor in whether you place into a prize winning position. You are free to select any ground tile to click on; they do not need to be next to each other.
Trying to find the path may mean you strike out on the dirt until you eventually come across the path and as a geocacher who can't say that this isn't a tried and true method. Once you find the path however will you try and follow the path as it changes direction around your playing field? Do you go North, South, East or West to try and find the next concrete tile along the path? If you head one way are you heading towards the start or towards the destination? When you do happen upon the destination tile then you will automatically be in a winning position.
At any point you are free to change from the journey to the destination and vice versa but you won't be able to regenerate your playing field. You are also free to keep playing as long as you have qualifying geocaches, accumulating more and more dirt tile points and placing you higher and higher on the ladder.
Qualifying geocaches fall into two categories. Finds and Hides.
A qualifying find is a geocache that meets the following criteria:
The geocache is listed at Geocaching Australia
The geocache has a hidden date prior to the game commencing
The geocache was logged by you on the Geocaching Australia website during the game period
The geocache was physically found by you during the game period
The geocache is not owned by you unless it is a moveable geocache
The geocache has not previously been found by you during the game period
The geocache is one of the following types:
Burke and Wills
Moveable (you will qualify only once for a find on a moveable geocache)
Traditional
TrigPoint
Augmented Reality
Beacon
Gadget
Multi-cache
Night Cache
Podcache
Reverse
Unknown or Mystery
A qualifying hide is a geocache that meets the following criteria:
The geocache is listed at Geocaching Australia
The geocache has a hidden date after the game has commenced
The geocache was published on the Geocaching Australia website during the game period
The geocache has a container size of regular or larger (Note: A regular geocache has a volume of 1 litre or more)
The geocache is one of the following types:
Moveable
Traditional
Augmented Reality
Beacon
Gadget
Multi-cache
Night Cache
Podcache
Reverse
Unknown or Mystery
The game tracking mechanism relies upon your honesty when logging geocaches as found or hidden.
The games administrators will undertake verification of a statistically significant number of logs.
Players who continually log inaccurate information will be disqualified from the game. The game administrators decision is final.
The game administrators will subtract qualifying hide or find geocaches from your tally if they are found to be not genuine.
The game administrators reserve the right to provide clarifications to the rules at any point during the game.
Don't forget to claim your limited time game trophies, if your qualify, while the game is in progress. Once the game completes the ability to claim your trophies is lost for ever.

James went for a drive to the Huon, missed out on cherries (orchard not yet open) but scored some raspberries. Left as a surprise near the shed.
This fine summer's evening attended geocaching australia event: The Moveables are Here!!, graciously hosted by Tassie Trekkers at Riverside in northern Tasmania. Was fortunate to make it to the event as was not working and I only noted that it was going to be held on the previous evening - almost missed it. So many moveables in the one spot, roughly 150 in attendance. Nothing for it but to record a couple of notebook pages full of numbers. This the second time that I have crossed paths with little red james in the last couple of weeks, hello again, happy travels..!!

Dropped by 2ys'tassies while they were in the area, we'll move this little guy back along the coast a bit in a couple of days. TFTC
After having a look around the Ulverstone area James was ready to move on with Tommy and Barney.
After collecting Tommy we continued down the road and after 23km we arrived at a bridge. We could hear water running in the creek bed and the mossy edge of the bank at the base of the abutment was quite slippery. Looking up we could see the smiling face of the little red train. It was pleased to escape the chilly, damp ledge.
Welcome to Tasmania James we will get you out and about on a tour of the North West soon. A Top Cache Miz Daisy.
