I spent ages here but did not find it. Long grass everywhere, many of the rocks are hidden by it. Found a couple of likely spots, but empty.
After binge watching the olympics for much of the day, it was great to get out for a walk in Pinnacle to stretch the legs. Not even the drizzle and icy winds could dampen our spirits today as we hunt for the last few battleships! Thanks for the cache.
Very grateful for a quick find and another shot in the final week of the battleship game. TFTC
#GA5313 - 11:25; Headed out on a mission around the Pinnacles this morning to collect some GC caches for the daily challenge. Decided to give this series a run while I was in the area and maybe get on the board in the game. The GPSr wasn't playing ball this morning and was changing its mind often. Checked the hint for this one and headed to a likely spot, but no cache! Looked around and spotted another possibility, which ultimately led to the find. TFTC Sol de lune

I managed to find this series of caches between two showers this afternoon. They were all found to be in good condition. This is the last for this afternoon. Monty#2 played games with me here. Why didn’t I follow my geosense? It was there all the time! Once found I quickly stamped and returned it to where I had found it as I could see a shower heading towards this spot. Thanks for placing this cache Sol de Lune. Another cache means another firing shot. Will I have a hit?

Pleasant walk on a lovely winter's day. Lots of people, lots of unleashed dogs - glad we left ours at home.
No problems noted with caches. All clean and in place. Thanks for placing and maintaining these, and for bringing us here.

Out for a stroll with Just a cacher to grab a cache or two and dropped in on this series.
A quick grab on a busy walk.

This cache was a bit tougher to find, though I think the fog has been interfering with my satellite signals this morning. Lovely spot to take in the views. TFTC

This cruiser was harder to detect than any of the other vessels in the fleet that Mrs Y'stassie had encountered earlier. Her GPS was refusing to settle and it took a lot of careful observation and some strategic probing to uncover this vessel. Container and contents were in good condition. Great views from this hide and even better for the top of the hill a short distance away
Thanks for this vessel in your fleet Sol De Lune. This one certainly had its defences in place.

A nice walk through the bush to this cache, thanks for the fun!
