Description

As previously mentioned Geo Kid O likes climbing trees at the moment.  We stopped near here to look at the river, and like a shot he was up the tree.  

Cache is on a branch that is over the water at high tide, so be careful not to drop the cache.

I hope you enjoy the location

Hoping to collect some ammunition for the Battleships Game we headed out today to reload our cannon in preperation for firing.

Mr T found his inner monkey and climbed from the bullbar of the Pajero.

Many thanks Budgietas for placing this cache and adding to our geocaching experience today.

Out and about with Tassie Trekkers and finally had the tools to reach this cache. Nice to cross off the to do list and have another shot to fire in the Battleship games. TFTC

Out hiding some moveables with Newy07 and came across this one. Could see it but did not have the ability to reach it. Have to come back with a ladder or a monkey!
Cheers

we stopped and wondered how to get up here with no ladder. I came up with a plan! I laid out a big log and that gave stainless steel rat the motivation to move.
signed a new waterproof log sheet and replaced wet one.
thanks for the entertainment

"Hello Budgietas thank you for the cache.

I took a tool with me to help.
I spotted the cache from the ground so with the help of a took is wasn't too long before I was hanging over the river as well.
Unfortunately the container was open so it was full of water and the log was so wet it wasn't possible to sign.
I have a photo if you want.

Hi Budge
My main objective today was to get 14 feet up without getting wet
Only wore crocks so as not to get my good shoes wet should I fall in
Talk about hang on like a koala bear
Using one hand to unscrew and do up the bison tube at that height on such a small limb is Adrenalin building - my hand would not stop shaking
I'm back home logging my cache find and still have Adrenalin pupping through my body - it's now 1259 hours
Glad I had my tool with me to help mount the eucalyptus - but a mount'n man will .....
It was Sainted not so very quickly at 1200 hours
Off home now to log this cache and play with my new camera
Thanks for the *FTF*
TFTC and cheers
