Hi Tassie Trekkers. Today we found your cache on the Devo trip for the year.
VK7HCH and I hatched yet another plan to whip it up to the north to continue our plundering of caches both GC and GCA. As there are so many caches in this area we had freedom of choice to do those we wished to. We have solved a few puzzles so we can find those and lots of others. Although I didn’t find the girl U want, the caches were enough. It’s a beautiful world here in Tassie.
Thanks for hiding the cache for us to find today.
FTF: No
Mates: VK7HCH
Muggles: None
Condition: Good
Weather: variable from sunny through cloudy to rain and snow for the day

Swampy and I headed back to plunder more of the Northern coast over the Hobart Show long weekend. 4 day long weekend for 1 days annual leave. Sweet. This is day 1. Hobart to Devonport via the central highlands. This run has us finding both GC and GCA caches. So many caches, so little time.
Another quick find on my journey along Interlaken Rd.
Many tftc Tassie Trekkers...cheers ST.

A day trip up to the Lakes to find (and refind) some caches, a great day out, some easy and some harder finds.
Straight after parkrun this morning i meet gooseandegg at our normal coffee shop and after a few minutes chat the goose loaded his gear in the 4WD and we were off heading North for the day.
We almost made it to our furthest target cache without stopping but called for some GCA caches along the way, after grabbing some stunning views from a new budgie cache we headed to the last one and started on our drive back after a short detour.
The cache of the day was a out of the blue surprise showing me a location i had no idea of and a feature i didn't know existed in Tasmania or Australia.
It was dark and 9:40 before I got home, almost 11 hours and 460km made for a good caching trip.

We wondered how recent the car accident was but noted TazScouts mentioned it back in Sept 2022. Even google street view shows a few 'discounted' car parts around. We went high and low to check. Once I cleared a spider away we were able to guide the cache out.
Thanks Tassie Trekkers

Someone failed to nagivate the corner here at some stage and the stump was liberally decorated with bits of car, had to do a bit of serious digging to find the cache but it's still there and in good condition.

Hi Trekkers
Returned to Lake Crescent and the surrounding area to collect GA caches that I hadn't found before
This was one of them
The cache was Sainted quickly at 1150 hours
Staying for two nights at the Great Lake Hotel in order to do more around Bronte, Wentworth Dam and Lake Echo should the weather co-operate
Cheers and thanks

After walking round the large stump looking in all the cracks and crannies finding nothing Mrs Y'stassie looked down and there were the clear signs of a hidden cache. After a poke with a walking pole it was decided that the container had now companions and could be safely grabbed.
Thanks for another cache along the Interlaken Road Tassie Trekkers. Another container in very good condition.

Out for a day with OldSaint mainly as a maintenance run for me, then on the way home we diverted to Lake Sorell and Interlaken to grab a few GCA caches.
Stopped by the stump on the way through to Bothwell. TFTC

FTF @1.45 pm. We headed out on a beautiful winter's day to do a 400 km circuit to find one missile for the current battleship games and along the way we collected 15 FTFs and this was one of them. A nice drive in an area we have not cached in for a long time. Mrs W was pleased she had Mr W along for the ride as needed his gadget arms for this cache. TFTC
