Hello OldSaint!
Have searched for this cache a few times now over the past 3 months without success. You have me baffled!

Think this is the last cache to find before the new year. Straight forward find by friends before we went on the Huon Jet. TFTC. Clan Cerberus

Thanks for the cache OldSaint. Out and about today with RLD4963 and the GeoGSP. Ah, nothing like looking for a geocache in a native cherry tree - luckily this one only took a couple of minutes, with RLD4963 spotting it first - nice cache!

Found this cache on a learners drive through from New Norfolk to Huonville. Geo Kid I had to stop and start a few times to find the caches.

Was a hard cache to find as my GPS disagreed with the cache owners. Anyway cache was found after some help.

Our GPS wanted us in the centre of the road so we searched the area closest to the road - no luck. We made our way through to the other side again nothing. We headed back to the car then returned this time heading towards the river. The taller team member spotted the cache - how could we have missed it last time, we must have been looking down.

Container and contents were in good condition. On checking our GPS it indicated we were 10m from GZ.

Thanks for this cache Old Saint.

We saw there had been new caches published linking New Norfolk to Huonville so we thought we might head off and find them and quite a few others in the Huon area that had been published while we have been away. As we had planned to see the grandsons play their soccer matches it was nearly lunchtime before we made a start. Seeing the New Norfolk end cache had been found we decided to head to the Huon Valley area and then work our way to New Norfolk via the Plenty Link Road.
We parked near the cache and started looking for a way to access the area about 10 m away from GZ when we spotted the clever hide, so a quick find today. TFTC

Hello OldSaint thank you for the cache.

I had a little bit of time spare so I came down to Huonville to find some caches.

This one I thought would take a long time to find but I was surprised in the fact that I spotted it straight away.

Time had gotten away from us by the time we got to this cache. Fortunately it was a quick find. Thank OldSaint for another fun cache.

After the Island expedition, it was time for a driveby. We did actually drive by and had to walk back to GZ Brick Wall Well it wasn't that far. We checked a few places before the sneaky hide revealed itself. A nice peaceful spot by the river and another traditional ticked off. Thanks OldSaint
