Description
Skjule og Soge is the Danish 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 12.

Today we embarked on a GCA hunt including moveables and traditionals - unfortunately this one was 1 of 8 DNF's we encountered.
Was nearby for a soccer game and figured this was a great chance to move a few of the GCA's i am care taking.
Always nice to find a nice early number for a GCA cache - means it has been moving around for a long time.
Will get this one back out asap. TFTC

Met up with another cacher and handed off in a prisoner exchange....just like the good old days.
Spotted at a local event. Great to see some caches from the southern state migrating northwards.

Great to see some old moveables still out and about. 9.5 years on and this one is still in good condition.
Moveable is now with me and will be relocated shortly. Thanks RogerW3...

#GA3674 - 12:25; On an unscheduled trip to Tassie, so took the opportunity to catch up with family while I'm here. Stopped to grab Skjule as I headed back to the airport for the trip home to the big island. Nice to pick up an oldie still circulating, with the next stop for Skjule in the National Capital!

Out and about in an effort to get some moveable caches back in action. We seem to have collected a couple recently and needed to set them free to play on
Out and about on a lovely bright Mothers Day afternoon. Did the family thing and then headed off for a bit of caching. Needed a find today to fill a gap on our DZ calendar and got three, bonus! We'll move these caches on as soon as possible. TFTC
Out and hiding again. ready to be found beside a well used track.
Noticed this old moveable had been left in a rest area but had been found. When reading the found log we realised the cache had been left in place. A quick stop and we located the box still hiding under a large piece of bark. We'll take it on a little trip and then setting it loose on the little island where it is sure to get plenty of moves.
Stopped off to visit this one while travelling to Casterton for lunch after an appointment in Mount Gambier this morning.
Nice easy find and cache in good condition, left at this location as still haven't relocated the last movable I picked up.
Thanks

After such a long rest it was great to be able to find this moveable out in the wilds today.
Will move it along soon as I'm sure its a little restless after all this time
Cheers & TFTH Rogerw3

Sorry I’ve been out of the game so long. I’ve moved this one along in my travels today
I am sorry, this one was picked up over a year a go and has not yet been moved. I do hope it reappears some day soon, but maybe it needs archiving to clear up the map here.
The co-ordinates pointed at the guard rail, but the hint pointed at the tree. We couldn't find the cache at either, so looked back through previous logs. I have a feeling this one might take a while to resurface.
I'm so sorry, rogerw3... three and a half years' worth of sorry.
We (my younger daughter and I) picked this up with the intent of re-hiding it as a joint effort). Moving house meant the cache got lost in the shuffle. Imagine my embarrassment when I rediscovered it.
Anyway... I had the cache on my person at this Australia Day event, and released it to the wild. I believe it is on its way west.
Again, my humblest apologies.

Spotted this one (again) at the Victorian Australia day event.

This cache looks like it's MIA so we'll archive it to stop it turning up in the lists. If the cache is recovered the owner can place an unarchived log against it.
Loaded this into geosphere a few weeks ago and after doing some other caches nearby I ventured over here, I should have read the logs as this was taken but not moved 2 years ago . Could someone update the coordinates please.

With a bit of time on our hands on a sunny winter school holiday, Short-stuff and I went off to complete what should have been an easy multi, beginning at a playground. Well, she got to play, and hone her counting, but ultimately, we came up empty.
As we started toward home, I noticed this was on the way, so we decided to take a bit of a walk. You should have seen the grin on the little one's face when we found it... and it widened when I said she could take it home. AND hide it somewhere!
We'll release it back in the wild soon. Thanks, rogerw3.

Dropped off another frog I've had for far too long in a nice piece of urban bushland. As I was averaging the position, a mean looking pit-bull came and tried to climb up my leg - fortunately, it was just trying to be friendly - or so the owner said.
Thanks rogerw3 - Sorry about the delay

Our favourite geocaching park appears to have acquired a cluster of 9 GCA movable caches, all close together, so today, geodaughter and I set out to find them.
One of two regular GCA movables we found today.
Thanks rogerw3 - a interesting concept.

Dropped off in Wattle Park at lunchtime today
After a "micro event" of cachers gathering to join forces to get the GeosportZ 2012 4x4 Relay event covered, and another group cache attempt too, I headed off to grab a moveable cache cluster at the Gresswell Forest Wildlife Reserve. Lots of roos and fungi around, not so many birds, and some frogs (not just of the Leapfrog variety) too. I'll move this cache along ASAP
I hadn't realised there were multiple moveables at GZ so after finding this one I looked for the next and it was here - sure enough a Leapfrog found. Then again - and another moveable located!

This spot turned out to be a regular army of frogs (yep, that the collective noun for frogs ). Spotted this one at 14:05 but left him with his mates.

Now hiding with a couple of other GCA trackables in the forest.
I was walking past this location and remembered that there was a GCA moveable here..... somewhere. The trouble was that I didn't have the co-ords entered into the GPSr on me "Well, I'll have a look anyway" I thought, and there it was! in the first spot I searched.
I'll move it on soon (for the second time).

This is my fist time moving a cache, so I hope I've done it right. I have picked a location that there will be an event at in a couple of months, but hopefully the cache will have moved before then. Thanks for the experience and I hope the cache has happy travels from here on in.
Wow, finding this cache today was a surprise. I was, in fact, looking for the final of a puzzle cache and found this instead. I obviously picked it up and took it with me. I will put it out again soon... never done one of these before!

Moved approximately 2.5 km along a creek. Nice little walking track.
A move to a large local park where a gnome still lurks. I just happened to be here placing a Munzee as well.
The park shuts at sunset but it's worth coming here in daylight just for the view!

I was here on a 3 for 1 mission today. The GC cache Miska Moo was easily found then I moved onto the not one but two Geocaching Australia moveable caches hidden within arms reach of this one. It seems that the last four finders of the GC cache didn't know this or just weren't interested. Does that make them GCA muggles?
My good luck to get 3 for 1 at this spot .
Cheers, thanks for the moveable fun.

Went to retrieve this one and "Dural to the World" nearby.
I knew exactly where it would be as I had retrieved "Mishka Moo" from GC a few weeks back.
However a family had decided to pitch a picnic basket right around the corner from gz.
With two nosy kids and a little barking dog, I wasn't going to risk this one any more than I need to.
Oh well, it will have to wait for another day!

A quick move for one, a longer than expected wait for another. Two for the price of one on the moveables front. Three for the price of one if you haven't found the gc.com cache here either. Hidden behind the tree, shouldn't be too hard to find. Keep 'em moving!

Well I'm on my way to Adelaide today for a study tour of water harvesting in SA and I thought I might grab a few caches on my way to the airport. I decided to drop this one off along the way as I have had it for a week. I found a nice spot near another movable but please be careful with the kids and traffic.
The geoson and I had a few moments today to try and grab a few caches in inner Melbourne and this one came up on our radar. We parked just north of the cache and jumped out of the car in a flurry. Running over to the GZ location we spotted a piece of string and pulled and out popped the cache container. A big high five and we ran back to the car to make a quick get away with the cache before we picked up a ticket for not paying the parking fee. We will place it somewhere else very shortly. Thanks for the experience. It was fun.

Don't know what I was thinking here but I logged it not realising now it was a move able cache.
Sorry, I left it where it is.
Dam could have moved back to Melbourne.

Little Skjule og soge has now arrived in sunny Queensland, at beautiful Peregian Beach!
You'll have to take a pathway down to the beach, taking care not to disturb the marked areas where re-vegetation is taking place.
There's no need to go charging off through the dunes. What you're looking for is very close to the path.
Remember that Skjule is magnetic!

Found together with my son, who is visiting from Queensland.
He was interested in the concept of the 'moveable' cache!
So we took little Skjule og soge with us and will consider where it should go . . .
And we enjoyed the local wetlands and had a snoop around the old 'Blast Furnace' while we were there.
The CO will now have to investigate yet another language . . .
(Many thanks, rogerw3!)
