Last cache for the day and in an area I used to be quite familiar with as a child. As my mother worked in the kiosk at the Bluff us 3 kids spent most of our days here and spent many hours on the rocks and poking around in the scrub near GZ.
Today a quick find was made at GZ but the weather wasn't exactly conducive to standing around and admiring the views though.
Thanks.

It has been some time since we have walked this track at The Bluff. Some things have not changed: the amazing views, people fishing off the rocks and the memorials to those who have drowned swimming in the blowhole or have been washed off the rocks when fishing. The biggest change has been the excellent work by the Devonport City Council Parks staff who have cleaned out the undergrowth, placed picnic tables and made the area much more accessible and pleasant. Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find of a regular sized cache. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks DEZ055 for the cache.

Hi dez055
A trip, today, which took in Launceston, Burnie and other NW Coast places saw me drive 815 km for a total of 15 caches including two FTFs
Collecting these caches, I walked a total of 6.46 km using 8084 steps while burning 1675 calories

This cache was my fourth for the day and was a very quick cammoed
Was surprised it had not been found before I did - but really appreciated the *FTF*
It was Sainted at 1015 hours
Great little area; I even walked the steps but returned to the car via the other way
Also wondering if the guy fishing off the rocks got anything?
TRUE! The view is AMAZING - especially with the Spirit leaving Devonport

TFTC and cheers
