Checked on this cache today and it is still in place
Saw the remains of the fire that was mentioned in the previous log, but luckily the fire did not get the cache
Cheers OldSaint

Suspect this one might have been burnt? The tree has recently been on fire and still smelt like it had only just gone out. Hopefully we were just suffering from cache blindness...
Hubby still doesnt like these bison tubes, hopefully he learns to like them . As i brought a heap of them for him for Christmas ;D Great spot tftc
Today our plan was to cache along the Plenty Valley Rd and this was one we found on our journey. Enjoyed the drive and scenery along this road that we had not traversed before. Thanks for bringing us to a new location. We love exploring these back roads. Took a while to find this one - well hidden.

Thanks for the cache OldSaint. Out today with RLD4963 and the GeoGSP. Neither of us had ever driven along this road before, so it was all a new experience for us (the GeoGSP is not allowed to drive, but he is very good putting his head out of the wind with his tongue hanging out ). This was a nice quick find thanks to the useful hint - just what you want when you are out of internet range. cheers.

Out and about with the Rafas for the summer GCA game, New Years Day caching with god company. Driving on a new road to me as I have never been out this way before. Nice views towards the middle section but concentrating on driving so missing some of the views. easy find with clues. TFTC TNLN log dry.

Out and about with the two ‘wanna be mainlanders’
After an event near FRANK we headed out to get some GCA
smilies. Good run with Alby following along and the views along here are spectacular.
I never get sick of Tasmania’s views and this road well deserves caches.
Enjoying my trip thoroughly TFTC

Hello OldSaint thanks for the cache.
I had been to a moist event at Franklin and was planing on coming back home this was so when I heard GooseandEgg, StainlessSteelRat and Toolman were also coming home this way I tagged along for the trip.
As the trip continued this cache was third to be found.
a few years ago I and EeePees and AmazingDaughted had spent the day here doing controls for a car rally on that occasion there was about 150mm of snow on the ground

With three caching teams searching for this one we had it in hand in no time at all, thanks for bringing me out here again.
This is the second time we have come down this road, today we are going South to North with the company of 1TOOLMAN and Alby, a few of the caches along this route were known to myself and gooseandegg since we were together when we place our caches only a week ago.
After an event down at Huonville myself goose and 1TOOLMAN had planned to drive back to Hobart via this road, yeah I know a bit out of the way but hey that's caching, Alby had asked to join us and we were more than happy to have him follow us North.
Another great day out collecting some new caches, where everyone got a few finds.
Thanks for the cache.

After struggling up the hill in the ratmobile we reached the flat and cruised to stop here. It was cold here as we were in the shadows. With for keen cachers hunting it was never going to take long to find this one. Thanks for adding to this wonderful drive OldSaint

It was nice to have a safe spot to park near this cache as the nearby road crew were moving off and the heavy machinery was taking up a large part of the road and was moving quite slowly.
As we approached GZ we could see evidence of a previous hunt so stood back and had a more careful look. Once we had identified a likely spot we moved some of the screen aside and spotted the well hidden container. After replacing the log were decided that we might just have time to find the last two caches on this road before heading back to New Norfolk to catch up with friends.
Thanks for another cache in the series of caches along this road Old Saint.

Hey weren't we on this road we have never been all the way through from South to North on Saturday? Today we decided to travel North to South, another 200 km round trip to find more newly published caches and this was the seventh on our list. Accurate coords and hint led to a FTF @ 1.10 pm. It was also about here that the car GPSr wanted us to turn around and drive 126 km to the next cache which was about 6 km away! All these great caches to find on the Plenty Link Road now, just know that the road goes all the way through! There was more traffic being a work day, especially closer to Huonville where there were roadworks. TFTC
