Have had this series solved for awhile now. Had trouble with solving one, but a hint from the CO had me back on track.
After a few fine days, I took the opportunity to look for these caches before the next lot of rain.
Had no trouble driving to all hides but the track is deteriorating over time.
All caches were well hidden and all in top nick.
Many tftc's DEZ055....thoroughly enjoyed the puzzles and series....cheers ST.

Up north and decided to head off today to locate the rest of the solved mmmm puzzles. This meant we travelled from Devonport to Railton to Smithton and down to Dismal swamp and back to Devonport with a few other detours in between. It was a lovely day to be out and about and Mrs W was pleased at Railton that Mr W made all the caches a driveby. All caches in this Native Plains series were found easily with the aid of the hints. We enjoyed solving the variety of puzzles so great to turn the solves into founds. TFTP

Hi DEZ
What a great day
After a couple of false starts, due to the GPS not co-operating, finally headed in the right direction and managed to find all caches in the area
The hides were good and all are in good condition
This cache was Sainted at 1020 hours
No problem finding it
An interesting hide
The 5th find for the day was enhanced by two Wedgies soaring above (See photos on GA27232)
Thanks for the fun and the hike
Cheers OldSaint

Solved as part of the MMMM. Thanks dez055 for your contribution to the games.
After a stressful few weeks away from caching we had time and weather conditions that would entice us out to look for some nearby caches.
We made solving this one a little more difficult than was needed but eventually had it sorted.
The forecast had predicted a calm, sunny day. A great contrast to yesterday's rain and chilly winds. As we are presently reduced to one cache mobile it was decided that Mrs y'stassie would walk the tracks to the caches while Mr y'stassie was elsewhere.
We debated which route would be best with Mrs y'stassie opting for the direct route straight up the hill. This turned it into a T3. The first section of track was easily negotiated however she had to take care going dowm towards the creek as the wet clay made for rather slippery conditions. Fortunately, there was little to no water in the creek making crossing straight forward. Going uphill however was another kettle of fish as the track has become deeply rutted.
Once at the top she quickly located Native Plains Mystery Madness 2 before making her way to this cache.
A good hint made for a quick find of a well-hidden container even though the GPS was flicking around. Mrs y'stassie was pleased to find a blank log giving her a {FTF} at 11:20.
Thanks for this cache and its accompanying puzzle Dez055. All was in good condition. The views from the Hydo pylon were beautiful today.
