I was racing against time to solve this in time for the MMMM Game but I wasn't sure what time it ended. I raced out for a GC event which meant that I missed the shut off but luckily for me some angel, or should that be Saint, managed a tie which kept me inside the top ten. Thanks to some help I have now solved this mystery cache so that next time I visit the area, I will be able to look for the cache. TFTM OldSaint and for your efforts to keep our game going as strongly as it is. 
Found while on a trip down this way with Goose, even spotted OS and NE caches which was a bonus!

After a bright and early start to have an onslaught on some southern caches we left well before daylight negotiating the fog, icy conditions and the odd slow driver to make our way to sorell after grabbing some caches there we made our way down towards Port Arthur to find most of the caches in the area, the view from the Eaglehawk lookout was brilliant. Met up with Oldsaint near the golf course where he needed assistance to turn the hazards off on his Ranger. At the second last cache in the area we meet up with Goose and Stainless Steel Rat, after a catch up and discussing some caching we headed off for seven mile beach where we located all but one of the caches we had targeted in the area.
then continued onwards to Sanford to find the rest of Whitewebbs MMMM games caches and a few others that were close by. Needing to be in New Town at 5 to pick up a heater we stopped in at Rosny Hill to grab the caches there to fill in some time, all were located and solved. After loading the heater onto my ute we decided that was enough caching for the day and headed back north arriving home around 10pm.
This one took us ages to find as we couldnt locate the Y, after making a phone call we soon had an idea of what the Y was, we had walked past it several times in our circles of GZ, eventually found and grabbed the photo of the log. TFTC

As our onslaught on the south begins, we started early from the north and made our way south for the day. Great day for caching in Tasmania.
Headed down the road and accessed this one from the difficult level. Took a bit to find GZ. With a quick call to the CO for a little direction the prize was found. TFTC

There was some kind of event going on so we snuck down a side 'road' and approached GZ from the wrong side of a fence. Pfft, that was just a minor inconvenience. We wandered around a bit looking for the Y. SSR eventually spotted the cache. We realized we'd walked past it a few minutes earlier! 
Thanks OldSaint

Today was the day to look for the MMMM puzzles hidden on the Tasman Peninsular. Though rain threatened early the day remained fine making our tour enjoyable and our walks to the hides pleasant.
After finding a trail into the bush we arrived below GZ. Didn't spot the Y until we had reached GZ. A quick poke around identified the hide and we had soon added our name to the log. Photo taken we returned the container and covered it securely.
Thanks for the puzzle and the hide Old Saint.

Wandered around in circles. Never saw a "Y" as arrived from above. Glad to make a find after spending quite a while solving the puzzle for the MMMM games. TFTP
