Handed to whitewebbs whilst caching in the area.

Caching in the area, we were happy to find this moveable. Boy, Yellow Gnome is a heavy chap.

Dropped off just north of Temora. Saw a big tree stump that was more than big enough for this fellow.

Apologies to the CO, as I have had this gnome in my possession since Rutherglen, where it was handed to me. He is safe and sound in my garden in the Blue Mountains, but will be on the road with me in July on a trig and trad trip to Bendigo...where I will set him free.

Well today was an interesting one.

Plenty of caches found.

Met plenty of people too.

At one cache here I managed to send the gnome on its way.

Don't bother looking it has moved on.

Maybe NSW I here.

TFTMC

I came I saw and i dug deep.

Yes there was good cover on this large gnome.

Proud to say he was all safe.

Now off to a new destination.

Maybe he will get more action over here.

Still in the hiding spot I put him in over 3 1/2 years ago so it's high time he moved on. I plan to put him out near the city in the next few weeks with a couple of other moveables I've got.

This guy may still be in location....if you are in the area why not stop and see if you can help him on his way again, we're sure the CO would appreciate it.

Great cache. Nice and bright but you may need to consider that which may cover over the cache.

This guy may still be in location....if any cacher is in the area why not stop and see if you can help him on his way again.

I found the log but didn't see it. Gave me a sweat looking for it.

Finally dropped off. Come find him.

Oops. Good reminder. I think he's still in the boot of my car.

Periodically the Geocaching Australia review team checks moveable caches that haven’t been found or moved in over 90 days.

This moveable fits that brief, however reading previous logs, this one has been removed from the current co-ords by the CO and will be relocated soon.

Picked up on the way past. I'll move him on soon.

Found but didn't move on.

I picked this guy up from the Parkville Mega and have hidden nearby. He was too heavy to put in my suit case for the flight home.

One of the many GCA Caches spotted whilst at Parkville. Great to meet so many GCA supporters and thanks to chance to find your cache.

Thanks for this one geo_jas.

travelled back home to SA from Perth for family reasons and decided that Melbourne is only a short hop from Adelaide, so I logged an attendance at the Parkville Mega event and headed over for 5 days in Melbourne. I hired an E bike and had it for 4 days so was able to get around to many places and grab lots of caches as well as biking from the Youth Hostel in North Melbourne to Parkeville which was only a short ride. I arrived Thursday arvo and headed into the cbd from North Melbourne for a quick look around and then back to the Hostel I was too early to pick up the bike so jumped on a tram and headed to the docklands and grabbed some caches in the area. I can not believe how much the CBD and docklands has changed since we were here about 5 years ago. Found this frog at the GCA gathering at the Parkeville mega event. Thanks for the cache GEO JAs

I spotted/signed this trackable at the Parkville Mega Event
Thank you for sharing it.

One of several moveables that was spotted at the Parkville Event.

I love that there are gnomes still doing the rounds, and it always a bit of fun to find them.

Found at the Parkville Mega event. TFTMC

I was introduced to Yellow Gnome and was told his story.
Thankyou skullracing for saving him from extinction and to Whheels for escorting him to the Mega for our enjoyment.
He’s quite a heavy little fellow and I did not offer him a lift home with us, but he is in very good hands with Whheels.
So pleased he’s back in circulation Geo_Jas
Thanks for sharing the moveable

found at the mega event but left for someone else to move along as I only have hand luggage TFTC jeo-jas

Found Yellow Gnome in the safe custody of Whheels at the Parkville Event today. Such a bright fellow.

A beautiful view from GZ skull racing. Thanks for bringing me here. I'm logging sitting on Yellow Gnome's log!

TFTC geo_jas. I'm very pleased Yellow Gnome's a goer.

He's whheeling along into the King Valley. My he's a bright bloke. Very pleased I have my sunnies on!

Cheers.

This little fella has been idle for too long, this looks like a good spot to wait for a lift to a new location.

HE LIVES!!!!!!!

i was hanging out with a good friend on the weekend, and whilst my back was turned for 5 minutes, he snuck this little fellow into the front seat of my car, let’s see where we can move him on too.

This moveable seems to have been found and removed in March 2017, however to date it has not been relocated.

As this is now over 12 months ago, the chances of the cache being relocated are minimal. To keep the Geocaching Australia database clean and up to date we are archiving the cache.

If the cache owner can confirm that the cache has be relocated (by contacting the finder who collected the cache in March 2017) they can post an unarchive log and the cache will be back in the game.

Walking around at the Alexandra MEGA event and I aimlessly almost fell over this gnome. What an exciting little collection of moveables out the front of a tent.....I quickly added my name to the logs and was sprung by Ikkibrady mid-signature. We swapped Geocacher codewords and he invited me to take a trackable or two. I grabbed a couple, but left this gem in place. TFTC Geo_Jas!

Yes, definitely a yellow gnome! Was excited to find it at the Alexandra Event. We appreciate finding moveables as very few make it to our location and locating them in the wild has had more miss than hit lately. TFTM geo_jas

Spotted on the table inside the shed near the trackables. I wasn't sure whether there would be GCA caches at the event but nice to see a few. I had a movable in my bag that I brought over from TAS but ended up just bringing it back home. Thanks for sharing this one geo_jas

Stopped this one at the recent Alexandra mega 2017. Pity there weren't more

Only a few moveables at the Mega which was a shame so this one was a welcome find.

Found this fellow after heading back home after finishing a meeting from uni. Anyways a quick find that had me bumping into many spider webs and prickly plants I managed to find this fellow. Took into my car and will move him on shortly. Thanks for the cache will move him on shortly.
THIS CACHE IS NOW NOT AT THE GIVEN LOCATION IT WILL BE MOVED ON SHORTLY BUT IT IS NOW CURRENTLY IN MY HANDS

Rated: for Overall Experience

Not quite sure what the previous log means, so I was a bit worried if the cache would be there or not. Shouldn't of worried though, it didn't take long to spot this brightly colour gnome. Signed the log, but left him in situ as he works well in there....

Thanks Geo-Jas....see you tomorrow probably....

Swapped with Beckham7 on a rather hot day

Grabbed to move along - this time no muggle problems. Dropped a couple off and rehid the rest as were a bit too visible

Sadly I had to abort a recovery mission to grab this as there was a muggle nearby talking on the phone (on and on and on...) so I dare not do more than have a quick look for YG, and then I only saw his companion so gave up - the heat was already too much for more than drive-by caches...

Sorry geo-jas, with it being the lead up to Christmas and hot weather, we held onto this brother (he ain't heavy he's my brotherrrrrrr) for longer than intended, but with a break in the weather tonight we rehid our bevy of beauties!

gnabbed him at sunset, will send him on his way soon

So heavy he didn't stay with me long, but got a few km

Ooooo these concrete ones are heavy!!

Finally found a couple of minutes to drop off some gnomes.

Picked up this morning. I'd forgotten how heavy these were.

Bwahahahahaha! I hope this one lasts the weekend until a certain known geocacher comes along to find his own gnome Travel far young Gnomie.

Quick and easy find. Will move along shortly.

Well I'm certainly getting an exercise from carrying this gnome. That's my exercise done for the next 18 years!!

Drop off to hide and wait for next finder.

Join with other gnomes
