Logs
I was in the area, so decided to go for a walk at the Pinnacle and grab these. Long grass and boggy in places, but managed to find most of these caches.
I spent a long time here looking through the long grass for logs, but really only found branches. Eventually spotted a stump a little way off and found a cache there. A bit concerned it only had one entry in the log, but it matched the date of the previous finders so I assume OK.
Thanks

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
Keen to get out on such a glorious sunny day after all the grey weather of late. But the sun sets early so a more local walk was needed. Had planed to keep this for a nice walk with Wilma and Hoppy but couldn't resist the a the perfect walk for today. Great new loop of caches here thank you SDL!
#GA5314 - 11:30; 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. This one didn't present the same problems as the last one and the cache was soon in hand. 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 next one I attempted and it was found quickly, stamped and returned where I had found it. 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.
hanks for the cache Sol de lune.

I was surrounded by a really big mob of roos at this cache. I clapped my hands to get them to move on but they didn't seem very intimidated by me - some pretty big roos amongst them too. Cache found without much trouble, but looks like I am going to have to get these roos to let me through to get to the next hide. Thanks again - having a great morning out on a walk.

As she walked towards this site Mrs Y'tassie encountered a young Asian woman with a small short haired cat on a length of ribbon. The cat was walking quite happily on its lead. After a chat with the cat owner she headed off for a date with a cruiser. Cruiser located and log signed. All was in good order.
Thanks for sharing another cache in your fleet Sol De Lune. Caching on busy walking tracks is always interesting. Have met many dog walkers but a Canberra cat walker is a first.
