Logs
The grass is so long that I could not initially see the log. When I did find a log, I dug through the grass, but still couldn't find the cache. DNF.
Spotted in the hands of Smittengranny before being moved on further afield.
Thanks for the moveable...

Thanks for placing them here
I will take them on a little journey.

Picked up along with a few others that have been languishing on the side of Princes Hwy for six months
Waiting close to the Princes Highway hoping for another move.
Back out again waiting for the next adventure. A couple of other moveable caches are nearby
Found on the way home from Launceston after a family event. We've used this hiding spot a couple of times in the past, easy to pull off the highway here. We'll move this one along the north west coast. TFTC
Dropped off on the way down the coast. Happy travels
In my possession for but a fleeting moment. Dropped off just down the road and awaiting further adventure.. thanks..!!
Knocked off work late afternoon. Despite being tired and well over it, made the brief detour to gather up a couple of recently arrived moveables in the Trevallyn Reserve. Here come across this one before, nice to see it still in play. A quick and easy find.. thanks..!!

Dropped this off with some friends to keep them all moving, some of these are old caches and I hope they get many miles on them.
Another night run to grab some moveables, will move as soon as I can.

For a transporter this poor cache hasn't traveled very far. He must be suburban transport
Awaiting a new Landing spot to be provided. Can you help?

Hi Poldark
A three day trip to the North West Coast of Tasmania
Travel:
Started at Huonville through the Lakes Highway on the central Plateau to Deloraine and out to Sisters Beach; back to Somerset for the night. Various places visited through the next day finding caches, mainly in the Penguin area and back to Goat Island Reserve for the night.
Day three, I was caching around Ulverstone and then back to Huonville.
Total kilometres travelled was 1006 kilometres
Found 16 caches during day 1, 26 on day two and 12 on day three – total 54 found and two DNFs.
Walking:
Over the three days, I took 32664 steps burning 5791 calories to cover a distance of 25.51 kilometres in finding the 54 caches.
This cache:
This cache was a quick find hidden in a guard rail near Elizabeth Town (Tasmania)
It was Sainted at 1002 hours
The near by scene was pretty
TFTC and cheers

Somehow we ended up with a hoard of moveable caches in the boot of the cachemobile. Over the last couple of days we've been gradually rehiding them around the countryside and today we've managed to get the last of them out in the Trevallyn Reserve
Found this cache on a trip through Wynyard picking up moveable caches in the area. Will move this one towards the north of the state. TFTC
Canberra Airport Transporter No,2 is back out with a mate and ready to be found

We are currently doing a virtual trophy for verbosity, hence the long logs! We are enjoying participating in the States of the Nation games which are currently running from 16 December 2017 until 21 January 2018.
States of the Nation is a real and virtual geocaching scavenger hunt where your home state will compete against other Australian states to find and hide geocaches. Over the 5 week course of the game there will be hundreds of scavenges that you can track down, find and convert into points for your state. Some scavenges will be easy. Some scavenges will be tough. Some scavenges may be impossible. Don't despair. You are not competing just for yourself; you are competing as a state.
There will be a number of scavenges released on a weekly basis but each scavenge will remain until the end of the game. This means even if you decide to join the game part way through, the early scavenges are still available for you to claim. Scavenges will require you to find a geocache, hide a geocache, attend an event or do something else completely different. The game focuses on all aspects of geocaching and so all cache types, sizes, terrain and difficulty will be up for scavenging. TrigPoints, Events, History, Virtual, Webcam, Podcache and Locationless geocaches are all scavengable, so you're not just looking for a box under a bush. Each week there will be a mix of physical, non-physical and locationless geocaches so even if you are not in a geocache rich area, use the locationless component of scavenger series to get out, find something to log and gain points for your state. If you watch the scavenges as they are released you might also spot the 'not so hidden' patterns and plan for future weeks of the series.
Hiding geocaches will also be a large part of the scavenger series, but please remember this is a game of geocaching and geocaches that you hide should be long lasting, be of good quality and you should be proud of what you hide. Please avoid hiding a geocache just for the day so your state can find it before you archive it. Geocaches that exist for a short period of time may result in any claims on that geocache being disqualified. Play creatively, but also play fairly. More geocachers hiding more geocaches makes for more geocaching fun.

After hitching a ride in our suitcase Canberra Airport Transporter No. 2 is ready for action
Heading South to Victoria we collected a couple of moveables on the way and this was one of them.
Certainly a lot colder and wetter than where we have been and our first day in South Australia had us dodging the rain to retrieve this moveable.
With the Christmas in July games over we are now concentrating on achieving some Dragon Zone trophies - so this moveable will be in for a big move.
With geovan in tow we managed to manoeuvre our way to the top of Mount Barker to make a quick find - thanks to acccurate co ordinates.
Thanks Poldark - your moveable added to our caching adventure today.

We'd rescued this log from an archived GC cache almost 12 months ago. We attempted to contact the CO but got no response. The container dropped to the bottom of the caching bag where it remained forgotten until we cleaned out the bag for our current trip.
As the log has become separated for the transporter we have placed it in a micro sized purple container so that it can resume its travels in SA.
Waiting near a long abandoned station.

After finding Gnarly Dude close by we thought that we would have a look for the 2 close by. We quickly located a 1 litre sistema in leaf litter under a tree. Inside we found a plastic bag containing the log sheet for Canberra Airport Transporter No 2, another log book with no cache identificationand a few swapable items. This cache was listed as a micro so we are not sure what the log was attached to.
We would be happy to put the log into a small container so that this cache can continue to circulate if that is OK with the CO

Grabbed and will be off to Geelong for the weekend. Still in pretty good nick but I have chanaged the rubber band
Finally got to drop this long lost moveable off with a few friends. Should not be long before they are moved on.
It has been over 12 months since I dropped off this moveable with a number of friends, a few people have tried and failed to locate so while I know it is not really the done thing I have decided to visit again to rescue them. It was an easy find for me and I will drop off again soon.
went looking for this one and all its buddies with no luck. will have another look but i would have thought 5 caches would have stood out
Dropped of with number of friends, just tucked under.
Travel far No 2.
