Event Full Flask Gold Coast City, Queensland, Australia
By Tassie Trekkers on 03-Dec-18. Waypoint GA12975

Not going undergrowth diving today thank you

I have seen this multiple times over the last year and finally I got to go there. It is located just down the road from our beehives but my hubby is a muggle so I had to wait until I had my geosis with me. We found a heap of the hinted locations but could only access one in the wet long grass (too many possibilities of snakes) so not sure about the location. maybe will go back another day when all is dry

Hmmn where to put such a big container? That was the question in my mind until last weekend when I went on a cache maintenance run with Petan. As they fixed a cache I looked over and thought I really shouldn’t be too stumped to find a solution to this problem.

So today we went back and fixed the problem.

Good luck, hope finders do get stumped in finding this.

Well we found it, in a convenient little fire place area, sans fireplace. Why don't they have these anymore?

Left the election poster where it was. Actually surprised that the moveable was still there, thought it might have been collected as rubbish when the election sign was banged into the ground, but obviously that party does not seem to be so worried about roadside rubbish, although the discarded sign clearly indicated this.

Will have to find a spot in my park to put it.

Thank you for the cache

I found it, now where do I hide it since its a bit bigger than the usual moveables. Still its nice to see one of this size.

Might need a little more time to find a spot in Samboo (er Schusters) Park where there are several geocaching Australia hides (as well as two from the other mob).

With the swag of moveables I found along the Mt Lindsay Highway, Samboo Park is going to be full!

Thanks for the moveable.

Moved this cache up into QLD just south of Beaudesert.

Found this moveable, as well as a swag of other ones between Casino and Lismore NSW - Never before have so many moveable caches appeared in my local area, so I took a drive and picked them all up. There's a few other cachers that I'm sure will love to see them too, so I'll share the love around and then they'll soon be on their way to their next location. Thanks for hiding this one!

Down and ready to be found again. Good luck.

Discovered this one in the hands of Smittengranny. TFTM

NOT AT THE ABOVE COORDINATES.


I am not surprised this one was left behind though I have now taken it to travel interstate next week hopefully. It is rather large isn't it! Thanks for this moveable Tassie Trekkers. I hope you're both well and life is treating you kindly.Log signed and cache is with me still.

Saw these pop up in Belconnen, ACT and since I needed to get out of the house I did an evening run to find these caches (but not move them). I agree that particular spot - usually quite a good one given the access - is getting a bit yuk - maybe more of a meeting point these days.
Thanks for putting out the movable for me to enjoy this find evening.

Went out today to set these fellows free. Lovely spot. Watch where you put your feet, though, as I discovered when I returned to the car. Something yucky. Shoes are in washing machine as I write this.

Lovely afternoon for a short walk. Also a quick find! Thanks for the cache!

Quick pickup for several movables with Just a cacher.

Down again, near the Mad Hatter =)

Dropped off and still with me. NOT AT GZ!

Dropped off on the Weekend. Will move on shortly

Out to drop off a few moveables at a usual area and found this one sitting there as if it had been left behind...or simply dropped, although I'm not sure how you wouldn't know you'd dropped it. Anyway, it is now with me and will be moved on shortly.

Thanks for the moveable TT...

Found in the hands of Albida33 and andrewbt after we all found an night cache tonight in Jerrabomberra. Very cool cache - thanks for sharing!

Found in the hands of another cacher, enroute to yet another. TFTC!

I was happy to be able to pick these up soon after they were place. It is nice to see new clusters of moveable about.

Thanks
Albida

Dropped off with some mates and now touring Canberra in the hands of another cacher......!

#GA4109 - 13:35; On the way to Devonport to catch up with friends before boarding the boat and heading back to the big island. Stopped off to grab a couple of moveables along the way, including this one, which is now headed off to the National Capital. Took a bit to extract this big boy from its hide, but managed to get it!

Hi Trekkers
Woke early this morning and couldn't get back to sleep
Thought the sun would be up by the time I got to this cache, but on arrival it was still dark
Sainted this one at 0506 hours - I know why I won't usually cache in the dark; this was no exception!!
Drove 476 kms for the day, 8 caches which required I use 10627 steps to walk 8.02 km while burning 1435 calories
A great day out

Hi Trekkers
On what can only be described as a miserable Tassie Day and with all family commitments out of the way, it was time to go in search of the cache I needed for the day
Arrived at the car parking area and made a quick dash for the cache
The weather gods were reasonably kind, but not quite kind enough!
Sainted the cache at 1601 hours
Got warm back in the car and on the drive back to the Huon
Glad I've got pics from a previous find on this cache; (just for the records)

Eventful flask had traveled around with us for too long. It was ready to go out again after recovering from the disappointment of missing out on a ferry trip to the mainland with Cybergran V.

After having a very event full trip to this lovely island we were offered this moveable to take back to the mainland, by 2y’stassies.
Unfortunately it was a little bulky to fit in our luggage.
Thanks for the opportunity to log it though.

On our recent trip to the south of the state we collected up a few moveable caches, today they were passed on to another team who will help them continue their journeys, thanks for travelling with us for a bit

Out and about again in the south of the state. This was a quick find in a lovely location, we seem to have collected up a few moveables this weekend and will move them towards the north of the state in the next few days. TFTC

Back out with a couple of mates

Picked up and taken for a drive. Back out soon.

Journey or Destination

Game Period: 01-Dec-2018 00:00:00 to 31-Jan-2019 23:59:59 AEST

It is sometimes said [citation needed] that the game of geocaching is not about the destination it is about the journey. This game is about the choices you make in the experience of the journey or the destination.

On your entry to the game you will be asked to create a playing field with a number of ground tiles. Your playing field is a grid 20 x 20 ground tiles making a total number of 400 possible steps you can take on your journey or destination. You choose whether you want to find and follow the path or whether you wanted to meander around. A playing field is unique to each player so there is no benefit in teaming up to beat the system through brute force.

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. There are a number of different ground tiles that will be revealed when you click on your playing field. It should be noted that there are no punishments for clicking a tile but there will not always be the reward you were hoping for as you reveal each tile.


Dirt. The ground beneath the ground tile is just plain old brown dirt.

Dirt with some points. The ground beneath the tile is brown dirt but it has some points associated with it.

Concrete. The ground beneath is part of the pathway that will lead you on your way to your destination but has no point value.

Start. A concrete ground tile that has a blue map marker.

Destination. A ground tile that has a green map marker.


Meandering around and avoiding the path will accumulate points that will be used to place on you the ladder of wanderers. The more you stay off the path the higher the number of points you will accumulate and it will be your journey that will be the determining factor in whether you place into a prize winning position. You are free to select any ground tile to click on; they do not need to be next to each other.

Trying to find the path may mean you strike out on the dirt until you eventually come across the path and as a geocacher who can't say that this isn't a tried and true method. Once you find the path however will you try and follow the path as it changes direction around your playing field? Do you go North, South, East or West to try and find the next concrete tile along the path? If you head one way are you heading towards the start or towards the destination? When you do happen upon the destination tile then you will automatically be in a winning position.

At any point you are free to change from the journey to the destination and vice versa but you won't be able to regenerate your playing field. You are also free to keep playing as long as you have qualifying geocaches, accumulating more and more dirt tile points and placing you higher and higher on the ladder.

Qualifying geocaches fall into two categories. Finds and Hides.

A qualifying find is a geocache that meets the following criteria:

The geocache is listed at Geocaching Australia

The geocache has a hidden date prior to the game commencing

The geocache was logged by you on the Geocaching Australia website during the game period

The geocache was physically found by you during the game period

The geocache is not owned by you unless it is a moveable geocache

The geocache has not previously been found by you during the game period

The geocache is one of the following types:


Burke and Wills

Moveable (you will qualify only once for a find on a moveable geocache)

Traditional

TrigPoint

Augmented Reality

Beacon

Gadget

Multi-cache

Night Cache

Podcache

Reverse

Unknown or Mystery



A qualifying hide is a geocache that meets the following criteria:

The geocache is listed at Geocaching Australia

The geocache has a hidden date after the game has commenced

The geocache was published on the Geocaching Australia website during the game period

The geocache has a container size of regular or larger (Note: A regular geocache has a volume of 1 litre or more)

The geocache is one of the following types:


Moveable

Traditional

Augmented Reality

Beacon

Gadget

Multi-cache

Night Cache

Podcache

Reverse

Unknown or Mystery



The game tracking mechanism relies upon your honesty when logging geocaches as found or hidden.

The games administrators will undertake verification of a statistically significant number of logs.

Players who continually log inaccurate information will be disqualified from the game. The game administrators decision is final.

The game administrators will subtract qualifying hide or find geocaches from your tally if they are found to be not genuine.

The game administrators reserve the right to provide clarifications to the rules at any point during the game.

Don't forget to claim your limited time game trophies, if your qualify, while the game is in progress. Once the game completes the ability to claim your trophies is lost for ever.

Event full went for a drive to the Huon, missed out on cherries (orchard not yet open) but scored some raspberries. Left as a surprise near the shed.

Found at the moveable event at Riverside with a pile of others. This one stood out because of its size.

Thanks for this new addition Trassie Trekkers. Nice to have a large addition to the moveables. Joint {FTF} with the event attendees.

Attended the Moveables are Here Event in Launceston and made a joint FTF with the other attendees of this large flask. TFTM

This fine summer's evening attended geocaching australia event: The Moveables are Here!!, graciously hosted by Tassie Trekkers. Was fortunate to make it to the event as was not working and I only noted that it was going to be held on the previous evening - almost missed it. So many moveables in the one spot, roughly 150 in attendance. Nothing for it but to record a couple of notebook pages full of numbers. A very cute little flask, regrettably was not thirsty enuff to partake of its innards.. thanks..!!
