MMMM #2 - MMMMouse Tasman, Tasmania, Australia
By OldSaint on 01-Jun-23. Waypoint GA27281

I solved this for the MMMM Game just too late. But the solve was only possible after I had sent my findings to the CO who pointed out that I was overthinking the solution. It had been there right in front of my nose the whole time. I was working feverishly in order to hopefully qualify for a prize. Thank goodness someone above me managed to make a tie, which dragged me up into tenth place. TFTM OldSaint.I think you have definitely earned your Sainthood today.

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 is where we caught up with the CO who was having trouble with his Hazard lights in his ranger, having the exact same ranger showed him how to fix it then headed off to find the cache, a quick find was made as it wasnt covered so after signing and taking photo added some more coverings to the hide.

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.

With the CO in tow we headed to GZ. An easy find was had. We were on our way after assisting the ailing Ford owner with his hazard lights. . TFTC

The last OldSaint cache of his 5 for the game. We struggled to find this one and had to send out an SOS. Those 'bloody northerners' hid it too well for this lame goose
We got it in the end!
Thanks for the fun today 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.
We had not been along this road before and loved the views across the water as we drove along. Good coordinates enabled us to make a quick find of an interesting container that fitted the theme of this puzzle. As the cache guardian was not agressive we soon had our name on the log. We rehid as found.

Thanks for the puzzle and the hide Old Saint.

A photo of our log entry has been added to the gallery.

I solved this puzzle for the Mid-Year Mystery Madness Months game.

A good puzzle with potential to be mmmmore trickier. For once I was thinking like the CO. Thanks OldSaint, solved for the MMMM.

Solved this one as part of the MMMM games.

Glad to make a find in a lovely area of Port Arthur after spending quite a while solving the puzzle for the MMMM games. Thanks for placing. A bit of deja vu when meeting the rat and signing the log. TFTP
