Description

Piilosilla is the Finnish version of the children game of Hide and Seek. Although I guess this is in reverse first you seek and then you cache!

The start point is the small lake Pillans wetland park next to the Blast Furnace site.

The 250ml container is fitted with a magnet, if required when traveling from cache to cache.

Pictures of the location where you find the cache would be appreciated.

 

As part of the ongoing GCA 10th Anniversary celebrations I thought that for the next year I would replace the movable cache each time it is picked up from the original location in Blast Furnace Park, Lithgow: S33 28.483 E150 10.359. it may take a few days to replace but it will be done. This is number 11.

Discovered 'Piilosilla' at the Moveable & Mystery Madness Event held in Whiteman Park. The forecast was for rain but we were blessed with good weather for the day. A small but dedicated group of geocachers and a couple of new faces attended and exchanged stories of caches found and missed. Many thanks Rogerw3 for the cache.

GCA 1676. I'm finding these moveables a lot of fun to chase down and find.

This one I saved from a Ranger possibly throwing it out as rubbish along with a bunch of others. Safe and sound and I'll get it out in the wild again soon.

TFTC !!

Sorry Roger, i didn't know this cache was bundled in with others, otherwise i would have read the description before finding it and taken a photo or even filmed it when discovering it.

It's now on the road again. Smile

#GA350 - 21:20; I had gotten wind of a posse of moveables arriving in Canberra, so put the feelers out and found out where they might be having a break between moves. Dropped by with MrDamage tonight and sure enough, there was a swag of them alright. Logged them, then on our way to drop a couple of others I had picked up in Tasmania to continue their journeys.

Out for a drive and managed to spot this one, along with a couple of mates, before being redeployed. Always like it when new (old??) moveables make it to Canberra.

Thanks rogerw3....

I was fortunate enough to be advised of a new local delivery so just a short trip and seven trackables were in my possession. I will move them on shortly. Thanks

Took this cache on a bit of a journey. Pity it can't get credit for the true kilometres travelled but I thought it kinder to hide it on the way home; in down town West Adelaide.
Picked this spot on the Friday night but it was much too lively to be hiding small black boxes. Got up early Saturday and hid the cache whilst the streets were deserted. It blends in well but there appears to be a lot of activity in this lane-way, so don't leave it too long! Clan PhoenixVery Happy

Hi
On the way south after a fantastic caching weekend, found this little guy at Elizabeth Town while having a coffee break.
It was good to run into Sharnies Tribe while here and to renew the friendship.
This cache is now with Team Natty Dean to make the next hide.
TFTC and cheers;
