Description
This cache has been placed in South Hobart.
From the suggested parking coordinates of S42 54.229 E147 17.373 it is a short wander to GZ.
Please take the top track for a quicker walk to GZ.
The bottom track will get you there as well, so perhaps do a circuit.
There are other GC caches to find nearby.
Enjoy the view of the mountain from GZ. On the day of placement there was snow to be seen.

It took ages for the GPSr to find some satellites, and by the time it did I was just a few metres from the cache.
Great excuse to be out in the bush.
Thanks.

hi whitewebbs TFTC!
Found it early this afternoon out and about geoSonA.
All is good at GZ.
Thanks for the views, the cloud/weather that interfered with the P2P this morning has finally lifted.
Cheers, EPs.

Having been close by this evening we made a quick decision to look for this cache before an evening engagement. Our GPS took us straight to the hide where we found a large, well hidden cache. All was quiet in this area this evening so we were able to complete signing duties, replace the container and rebuild the hide without interruption.
Thanks for this cache Whitewebbs.We always enjoy finding good sized containers that have been well hidden.

The GeoGSP and I have walked along a lot of the nearby tracks but not this one, so it was nice to have a new track to walk along. It was a nice and cool day, but a bit grey overhead so good walking weather. Despite this we saw no other people or MTB riders, so it was a nice quick search and find for this cache. These are great containers - you guys must have taken out shares in the company!

Well Gilligan's Island wasn't enough entertainment for us so we headed up to South Hobart for a bit more caching fun. I got the GC nearby for my souvenir, found Old Saints and yours. I swear I have seen a cache or two like this before 
We made a quick find and spent quite a bit longer making sure it was covered up properly.
Thanks for the cache and a fantastic day

Off for a short walk with the Geo Kids today, and had this and some nearby caches in my sights. Did my normal thing of walking to the furthest cache and then making our way back to the other caches.
The cache was huge! What a great container. The view of the mountain was pretty good today, with a little white ice / snow on the top.

Hi whitewebbs
This became a birthday cache for me today
When it was published, I'd been in the area that morning; got home and found it on the screen
Ventured back today and made a quick find
Sainted at 1055 hours
Had picked a site nearby for one for me to publish but had no container with me on the occasion of my first visit
TFTC and cheers

"Hello whitewebbs thank you for the cache.
Tonight was a lot colder than the last time I was up here but the temptation of a *FTF* was too great.
I thought about coming up last night but thought better of it as I was very tied and it was my bedtime.
The cache was quickly found. How many of these containers do you have?
As expected no view of the mountain tonight, due to the darkness and the cloud.
