Whist in the area we decided to look for this, but just couldn't spot it. And an eclipse tin is not all that small either, but no luck at all.
Finally not a muggle in sight. Although disappointingly lots of rubbish in area and the bin is missing.
Found by one of the little red tags while I distracted a guy on his bike .. we had to be quick as a little old lady was coming along the track very very slowly so if we didn't get it then we were in for a long wait.
Thanks for the cache budgie

Found this one some time ago, forget when, but I know that I did. So I'm logging now because I can't remember the date.
Took me a little while to find it without using the hint.
Thanks budgie!

A nice easy find on my way out of Hobart with Red Kitten. Thanks for the cache Budgie
The first of the ICEM caches that we have found. This is going to be a long trek to try and get all this series. Great idea and great fun. Nice quick find for us today. TFTC.
Finally took the short detour to find this on the way home from work this evening. TFTC!
Nice quick driveby. Looking forward to doing more in this series. TFTC.

A very rainy day meant that I could search completely uninterrupted, so it didn't take long to turn up the cache.
One muggle did come past on a bike, though, looking soaked.
I haven't cached everywhere, but I have (now) cached in Berriedale!
Thanks!

A brief opportunity between muggles running past enabled us to locate the cache. We then had to wait for another break to replace the cache. Another ICEM. TFTC Budgietas
Hi Budge
Took Mum and Anne to the city today; so while they shopped and took care of business I was free for an hour or two to go grab a cache or two. This is the first using the new "old" cache mobile; so a thrill to do one of yours first with the good wheels.
Used to live in this area some years ago but never knew the park was there. So thanks for taking me to the new area. Having said that, I used to ride to work (Fishing Connection) from near here along the cycle track and back when a little younger than now. So thanks for the good memories.
This one was found quickly, log signed and the cache returned to its possy at 1253hrs.
Some interesting, pretty trees and shrubs near and around ground zero. Plenty of good sea run trout fishing to be had in the waters below the cache too. (That info was included for those who fish and want to know a good area to wet a line.)
Thanks for the cache, good luck with your cricket game on Sunday, cheers; OldSaint.

After driving back to Hobart from the NW coast, I thought I might grab a couple "on the way back in", as I seem to have been extra slack with the northern suburbs caches.
I remember coming to this little park as a waypoint in one of the Hunt and Munch events. It's a nice little park.
Today my GPS navigator thingy wanted me to launch the car off the top of the nearby overpass as the quickest route to it - but I opted to follow the actual roads.
Nice cammo, thanks Budgie.

I noticed the new cache so I ran out of the house leaving a cup of coffee to get cold. Found the cache easily only to find out it had been found last night.
It will be a long time before I'v cached every where.
Sitting in the park I was amassed with how many bikes went by.

FTF. Thanks for the event bonus Budgietas. We thought Snuva would have beaten us to it. Not often are we lucky to see that fresh log book. Thanks for the cache a start on a new journey. Cheers Quilter
