Description
This is our first cache hide and is located in our local area.
This is one of those "shortcuts" between streets and is well used so some stealth will be required at times, we use this walkway to get to the local shops, park and school.
Ths container is a camoflauged eclipse container and contains a pencil, log and a couple of small swaps for the juniors.
Enjoy our first hide.

Looks like this one maybe AWOL, so we'll archive. If the cache does reappear the listing can be reinstated.
Today we decided to target some caches in Launceston to get finds for the battleship games. In total we looked for 14 caches and found 12 with 2 dnfs. We had an eventful day touring through streets. Venturing to places we had never been to before.
This was one of our dnfs for the day. We searched the only place at gz but there’s definitely no cache there.
This one requires some co attention.

found on the floor and a wet mess inside, cleaned up, put new log and plastic bag, replaced in hiding spot
A nice easy find, I may have logged the wrong date in the cache.

Went out on my first official GCA caches hunt today i have done geocaching but had yet to figure out how to use this GCA site.
Found this little guy, log has gotten wet and dried over time into an interesting shaped mess so didn’t add my scribble and was annoying the local pups so got out of there fast TFTC

In Launceston for a few days and found this cache in an area not visited before. Unfortunately cache log was very wet and container no longer cammoed. TFTC

nice little area. One of our last finds for the day. found with stainless-steel-rat and TazScout
Easy find, it's caches like these that definitely make this game worth while. TFTC
#GA883 - 09:30; Back in Tassie on family business, so the opportunity to collect a few more of the local caches was too good to pass up. I had collected a couple as I made my way to this one. It was familiar territory, having attended a few parties in the general area more years ago now than I care to remember. Found a convenient park, then it was off to GZ for a quick find and sign. Not sure what the muggle walking her pooch thought I might have been up to TFTC activehunters

An early morning drive by on one of our caching days out. Took the opportunity to nab a few of the more muggle prone caches on our way out of town. Quick easy find, tftc
Next find of a few around the area. A quiet walk up here so as not to wake any dogs (if any) and with no-one around the cache was soon in hand...
Thanks again ActiveHunters
Thanks again ActiveHunters
Easy find, although the eclipse tin was almost in the open. We repositioned it in the tree and hidden. No problems with prople muggles, but boy did the dof muggles let the world know I was their.
Brilliantly hidden in plain sight, nice camo container, thanks..!!

Back in Tassie for a quick visit finding caches that have been published since our last visit and this was one of them. Nicely cammoed cache. TFTC

We were on a mission to hit 100 GCA finds today. After a DNF at another of the CO's hides we came here hoping for easier pickings & they certainly were as the nicely cammoed cache was in hand in a matter of moments. Thanks activehunters.
Accurate coordinates led to a quick find of a well hidden and well cammoed cache. The cache and contents were in good condition. TFTC.
