Description
A moveable placed for the Spring Caching Carnival 2018
Skipalongasaurus
Racing commences 01-Sep-2018 00:00:00 to 30-Sep-2018 23:59:59 AEST
Rules of the game:
- You may find and move your own Dinosaur Racer during the game period.
- Dinosaur Racers must be found and hidden by the same geocacher (i.e. no mailing the Dinosaur Racer to another geocacher to hide).
- There is no limit to the number of times a geocacher can find / move the Dinosaur Racer provided there are at least two other finds / moves in between.
- If the Dinosaur Racer has not moved within 7 days and you were not the last geocacher to find or move it then the "rule of two other finds / moves" does not apply and you are free to move the Dinosaur Racer again.
- If the Dinosaur Racer has not moved within 14 days, even if you were the last geocacher to find or move it then you are free to move the Dinosaur Racer again.
- If a geocacher moves your Dinosaur Racer overseas and it remains unfound overseas for 1 week or more, the Dinosaur Racer mover may move your Dinosaur Racer back to the country of origin without breaking the "2 moves" rule.
- There is no limit to the distance other geocachers can move the Dinosaur Racer.
Etiquette:
- Avoid rehiding a Dinosaur Racer far from active geocachers territory as it basically exits the dinosaur from the race
- When rehiding a Dinosaur Racer get good co-ordinates. Seriously. Don't dump and run. Get co-ords as you would a permanent geocache
- When making your log against a Dinosaur Racer include a GOOD HINT so the finder can identify whether it's been moved, muggled or just a bad GPS day
- This is a challenge of moving Dinosaur Racer along, not trying to make them impossible to find, so help you fellow players out by making the game enjoyable
- Please avoid hiding movable caches near existing Groundspeak or Geocaching Australia geocaches. At Groundspeak geocaches they go missing as rubbish or taken as trades. At Geocaching Australia geocaches the other geocache ends up travelling as well which it's not supposed to. So please find a location away from any existing geocaches (except of course other movable geocaches) to keep the Dinosaur Racer in play for as long as possible.
Please log me as found with a and moved with a

Nice Surprise

Had hope to drop this moveable at the Margate event but that was not possible so dropped it off on our way home today.
Soon after finding this one we met up with another team who are about to head south so they'll take some caches with them
Overnight a hoard of moveable caches were moved to a familiar area near Ulverstone so we thought we'd go for a drive and see how many we could find for the Blitz game. This one was one that we managed to grab. We'll get it out again as soon as possible so it can continue moving. Thanks for the cache
Received from old mate at Geilston Bay....many tftc...cheers ST.

Needed some moveables to fulfill our research tasks so we target these ones in the Holwell area.
Accurate coordinates lead to a quick find being made.

Now we can go out I have put his moveable out, he was enjoying being inside and reluctant to go outside in this cold weather.
After a family gathering we headed up to the Trevallyn Reserve to rehide some moveable caches we picked up in the Circular Head area last weekend. Ready for the next stage of the journey
We needed a find today to fill a gap on our dragon zone calendar so had a look at the map and decided to go towards the circular head region and try for some moveable caches. That area is a bit of a dead spot for moveables so will take them towards the north of the state where there's likely to be a bit more action. TFTC
We put this cache out on our way to the ferry. Unfortunately we lost the coordinates when we loaded the caches on our mainland route. This was the first chance we had to check on the cache and the coordinates. The cache is still hiding waiting to be moved on.
Found with a number of little moveables that had been travelling for some time. Another dinosaur is now preparing for a tour of Tassie
This moveable cache has been travelling with us for long enough, time to see the sights in Tassie
A quick find on a beautiful day in this part of the world. We've been travelling around the area using caching as our guide. We picked up some moveable caches that have been hiding here for a while now. They're coming on a bit of a road trip with us. TFTC
I saw this trail of GCA caches appear about a month ago and have wanted to attempt it for quite a while. It ended up being a relaxing 3.5 hour drive around the country side. It’s nice to have a couple more GCA caches with a on them. I found a few different dinosaurs and other different types of hides. All caches found today were quick finds and were left at its current location for the next finder to move along. Today’s finds also included a few Trig-Points finds. I would like to thank all CO’s of the caches I found today and for allowing them to bring joy to me and the rest of the caching community. TFTC’s and TFTTP’s
P.S. The cache has been left at above coordinates for the next finder to move on.

Thanks for this one..

Out for a night drive with Just a cacher and collected this lot to take south to Canberra.
Saw that someone had left these poor little defenseless creatures out in the bush in the dark, so we dashed off on a rescue mission. We will give them some counselling, and what medical aid they require, before releasing them into a more salubrious district.
One of twenty five at this location. All in a bag so find first then head over to the others.
Thanks to Roger for this cache of moveables. I'll hide them in Wingello SF within the week.

For each qualifying geocache that you hide or find during the game period you will be offered the opportunity to click on a ground tile and reveal what lies beneath.
A moving cache, by nature, may have been moved since you last determined its location. It may have been picked up but not yet rehidden so it's considered 'in-transit'. There is no foolproof method of determining where a cache is simply by the log types that have been placed against the cache.

I was going past anyway so stopped to check if this little racer, who I last saw in Barcaldine back in September, was here near Corowa, but no, he has been moved on.
Where to, I wonder.

Whilst on a trip down to the Murray River near Corowa I found a good spot to drop this collection movables, but I see they did not stay long as they have already been collected.
Thanks

After a long day out and about I was given a heads up that another batch of movables had been put back in play. I headed out after dark and was happy to find them still in place. I have taken them this time and will move them on soon.

Great to see a few moveables that were released somewhere up in QLD make their way south to National Capital. Easy to spot the little guys and they are now safely in my hands. Will water and feed them, let them have a day in the sun relaxing on the balcony before sending them on their way again soon.
Thanks for the new additions TT....will move on shortly.
