Description

Micro Mania [SSS]

The Summer Scavenger Series suggests that we hide a micro geocache to gain some points for our clan. (Go, Go, Griffin Gold!)

Micro geocaches are not my favourite because they are generally hidden inappropriately in terms of the maximum size container that they can be or they are hidden handing in a tree amongst a grove of other trees. I'm certain that the owners think they have hidden the best possible geocache whereas as lot of finders probably grit their teeth, make the find and try to write something nice. I know as a finder I do the latter.

This one is a geocache hanging in a tree. Before you complain too much, it's the only tree there, it's sparesly branched and leafed and the cache is a small black bison tube which makes it slightly easier to find than a nano. If you know where to look you can spot it from the path and as you approach it should get clearer and clearer to see until you are at the tree in which case it is almost impossible not to spot. I've marked this a difficulty 2 just in case you are geocaching and you are blind.

Please combine this geocache with the other geocaches along the Western Freeway Path which will net you a find and a nice walk too.

Today we cached along the Western Fwy Path and found your cache along the way. Cache and contents were in good condition.

Many thanks caughtatwork for placing this cache.

I decided to continue exploring the western bike trails... this time the Western Freeway was my target, so I caught the train to Sunshine to ride the last section of the Kororoit Creek before continuing westward.

A fine evening, and a mostly successful hunt (apart from a couple of fruitless scrambles in the bushes), and edging closer to the 10% target I want to maintain.

Thanks, C@W.

Bahaha,.... I was looking for a sparsely branched and leafed tree. This tree was anything but. Full of leaves and hundreds of gum nuts but thanks to clear hints in the description it was easily found.

#GA1864 - 10:43; Day two of a caching mission to Victoria with Sol de lune. Our major goal for the week is to complete the SSS and other series along the Western Freeway/Ring Road and to then collect enough GCA caches around Docklands to bring our total finds for the day to 100+ which would build our trophy cabinets a bit more as we complete a few more 'missions'. This was one of 82 finds in just under 6 hours along the various series, where we only had the one DNF! We were now headed east on stage two of the run. Apologies for the mostly generic logs.

Oooh, an incline...so up we go. Once at GZ the cache was soon spotted and the log signed. Then off to the next multi.

Thanks again for another one C@W

We had arrived in Melbourne early to catch the Spirit of Tasmania back to Tassie tonight. That gave us the opportunity to look for more caches along the Western Ring Path, ones that we didn't find in April because we ran out of time. We were pleased that the rain of yesterday had gone and, apart from a cold breeze, the walking conditions were very pleasant. Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks caughtatwork for the cache and the series.

Another bites the dust.

A little further on there was this sneaky little hider.

I signed another fresh log and moved on.
