Looked in the wrong spot for a while before widening the search area and eventually spotting the cache. Found on ground, but replaced in obvious spot. Thanks

Nice cool container here! Almost walked past it but spotted something odd Smile

After attending the GC CC Event I decided to come out and grab some GCA caches for the current GCA game. The walk was great but in the end I had to hurry back down to my car before the dark closed in on me completely. Thanks for these caches Kittykatch. The cache was found quickly and easily after a phone call to the CO and once I allowed Sam(sung) to do the walking instead of Monty#2. The cache was found to be in good condition.

I headed off to the Majura reserve to do a bit of walking. Along the way I managed to visit five GCA caches and avoid all the other walkers in the reserve.

Thanks

GA4118 - 09:50; I was headed in to attend a Leap Day CITO at the AWM and stopped off on the way there to grab this series of caches and finally complete my dragonZone calendar! It was a long four year wait after logging a virtual on this date back in 2016 at the end of a long caching day cycling and walking along the Centenary Trail for 75 GC cache finds. This one took a bit longer to find than I expected. The GPSr had me in an area with plenty of options, but no cache. Used a PAF and soon after had the cache inn hand about 10m from the posted coords according to my GPSr. I do believe I've seen something like this cache from the CO before? After signing the log and replacing the cache, it was finally time to get over to the CITO! As I was running a bit late by now, I colected some rubbish on my way back to the geomobile Whistle TFTC Kittykatch Very HappyClan Cerberus

Last one in the series and a great container at that. Took a few seconds to work out the way in, however that was overcome and the log was soon in hand. Cache was replaced in it's position and it was time to head back to the car and out of heat that was building up.

Thanks KK, a great container so a 'Recommended' for that and thanks for the FTF as well. Can't believe the nearby dam is completely dry. Thanks also for supporting the 2020 Game of Games.
