I read the hint, but I was looking at the little big one, meanwhile, AlbyDangles found the little little one!
Found with AlbyDangles on day Four of the 'Bust' leg of our "Kempsey or Bust" tour.
Cheers, EPs.

Found in the company of DEZ055. We couldn't have picked a better day than the first day of winter to tackle the Penguin Cradle Trail. I have been wanting to walk this trail for a long time. I have walked parts of the trail previously. This is my first attempt in walking from the Penguin end through to Hardstaff Creek. Well the legs are well and truly cooked today, but mission accomplished after walking roughly 23kms. We have completed all of the caches so far in this series.
This was an easy find TFTC Clan Cerberus

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

When we pulled up here we expected that we would be looking for this type of container and we were right. If only all of these were executed in such a practical way!!! So many have sodden bits of paper in a torn oversized zip lock. This is the way to do it though.
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. Between these and the PCT trail it had been a long day but most enjoyable. We started our day near here.. accidentally so actually completed a big circuit. TFTC 2y'stassies

The clue made me think I might have trouble finding this one and when I arrived at GZ my fears were confirmed. However I found it very quickly. It was well hidden but a geocacher would recognise the cache hide. Another SOTN puzzle and cache knocked off. TFTC 2y’stassies

Had to get down and dirty here but once that was done (and I clued on to the hint) the cache was soon in hand. Nicely played with the placement....a bit of fun.

Thanks for yet another one....

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 the last one we searched for and we thought we knew what we might be looking for. Always love it when a hunch proves to be correct. After this find we decided to reward ourselves with takeaway pizza for tea, we'd earned it! TFTC and the puzzles
