Nothing like driving to the mega event in the ACT.

Now to explore the rest of the country.

Don’t bother looking for me I’m in the hands of whitewebbs and left.

Safe travels

This was the first pick up of a half dozen.

Parked in a side street nice and close.

Soon fished out the wheels.

Time to move on.

Moved, come and find me.

A quick find this morning. We actually tried for this one last night when we were up at the trig, but as we pulled in there was a very suspicious looking guy at the turnaround who backed into the trees as we approached, so we hightailed it out of there and came back in the morning. No murdered bodies, so maybe we were just paranoid. This little guy is with us now and will be back out shortly.

Didn't hold out much hope for this one, and even more so when I arrived at the top of the hill to find a fire had been through the area. However these little cars must be tough as I found it at the base of what was a tree, in good condition. Log was signed and the cache was left in place to entice others up for the view. Cache is now in the fork of the tree, covered by another piece of tree. Photo's in the gallery show it and where it is.

Thanks Gwiber....great to see this one alive and well after 4 years.

Take a drive out to take in the views from view Point.

No longer in Goondiwindi. On our way to St Arnaud and after 7 hours on the road staying in Goondiwindi tonight.
Will place this one out once we get to St Arnaud. TFTC GWIBER

Dropping off Grey Wheels in Goondiwindi, home of the racehorse Goondiwindi Grey.... it seemed appropriate. There's two GCA traditionals not much further along so a drive up this road is a worthwhile detour.

What a good haul of moveables were hanging around Tamworth... we say were, they're not there now. Picked up Grey Wheels and his dinosaur mate to move along. TFTM Gwiber.

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 it seems to still be at the posted co-ords and is just sitting there waiting for the next finder to give it a go.

So, if you’re in area why not stop by and help it on its way.

Found by Mr T and Mr T jr while MTBing around Peter Morrell Reserve for a couple of hours. Left in place. TFTC

Back out again and ready to be found .

After collecting a heap of moveables in the Northwest a few weeks ago this has been the first chance I have had to drop them off anywhere interesting.
Today myself and Goose of GooseandEgg were walking round Peter Murrell reserve cleaning up some Gc caches we had failed to find yet and along the way we kept our eyes out for good locations to hide these moveables.
I have done my best to spread them out a little bit so if you want to collect more than a couple it could take a few hours, we got here about 11 and left about 3.
It was a nice spring day with us both enjoying the day no end.

Myself and Goose of GooseandEgg have had a big weekend, starting out before 6am on Saturday we have covered some miles, heading North from Hobart we called at a couple of Southern caches near Melton Mowbray before making our way past Mole Creek to Flumming Hell and then on to Devonport and Ulverstone collecting many GC and GCA caches as we went.
Sunday morning was started with a FTF on a reverse cache and then a great little gadget cache as we headed West.

GooseandEgg dropped off this moveable and now i'm picking it up so I can move it on in the next week.

Later in the day we went to a CITO event and cleaned up the area and then cleaned up some caches, after a few stops along the way we made it back to Hobart by about 6pm, not a bad weekend at all

This movable will be back out soon.

I arrived home from work to find Neville (my old gnome) having a party in the front garden with a bunch of other movables. Neville gets bored on his retirement so I can't blame him for having the occasional get together but it was time for the 'riffraff' to move on so I made sure they went a good distance so they would not be back in a hurry. Enjoy the Northwest coast you mad partygoer, enjoy playing bridge.

Found loitering around a dirty old gnome quite close to home. I was surprised to interrupt such a big gathering. The retired gnome is staying put but the rest of the party goers are being moved along swiftly. I'm very glad old Neville didn't try to escape in Grey Wheels. Thanks for the movable Gwiber.

A lovely spring day to be out and about. We heard a retired gnome was feeling a bit lonely in his garden bed so have dropped by for a visit with quite a few friends. Bring on the party!

While finding the nearby GC cache with OldSaint on a glorious spring day, I thought I had better bring this moveable back with me to civilisation! Not much of a party to be had here today at the stump. There were plenty of mates, but no internet and a kick out time of 4.00 pm. Plus the thermal pool was only 24 degrees but warmer here than sitting in the snow on the nearby hills. Hitching a ride to whitewebbs house before moving on. TFTM

This cache has been hidden with some of its travelling companions under the big log

Hi Gwiber
Left home, Huonville, this morning in the dark; travelled as far as Ulverstone and returned in the dark - left at 0530hrs and returned home at 2200hrs. A round trip comprising 772 kilometres including visits to Kindred, Turners Beach, West Ulverstone and Spreyton.

Weather: Wet at Huonville at 0530hrs, raining to Oatlands and then fine weather on the North West Coast for the day until I left and got back to Oatlands where it was humming down. Rained on and off from there to Huonville.

Having found one cache on Don Heads, my plan was to find as many as possible of the TasStats series as possible.
The puzzles had been solved some time ago, but this was virtually the first chance I have had to come North West in a similar period of time. So far in that series, I've found six with just one to find - so on the way to look for it, I thought I might as well try to find some caches along the way. This was the fourth on the way through the beautiful farming land from TasStats 6. So far today, I've found eleven including this one - All GCA; not one GC amongst them yet: 1 Trig, 6 Puzzles, three traditionals and now one moveable.

Attempts to get to the right side of the Bass Highway to get close to TasStats 7 failed; so I settled down; whilst stopped; I took a look for closer caches to be found on the GPS. A moveable nearby; off in search; not there - second time today; Sirius you .....
Phone call to sirius Tas and we make plans to say hello; visit it home; spend time and collect fourteen more moveables of which, this is one. Now you know the story behind my collecting your cache:
My tally for the day jumped from eleven to twenty-five comprising 1 Trig, 6 Puzzles, three traditionals and now fifteen moveables.

I Sainted the cache at 1400hrs.

After putting the caches in the car, I took some pics of my mates house. Back in the car myself and continued on the way to look for TasStats 7 again.

TFTC and cheers
OldSaint.

All go...now in the hands of Old Saint...cheers ST.

With such cold and inclement weather this past few weeks here in north west Tassie, going any where geocaching for me seemed to be out of the question. A good time to plan the various trips required in order to satisfy the various conflicting elements of the current DZ trophy points system. One trophy requirement is to find 100 moveable caches of which I need to find a further 26. So last night to my surprise, I saw 10 moveable caches had popped up on the radar and all with in a 10 km radius of home. I had thought of going caching last night but it was quite cold and even with a superb torch....power torch from Kleva Range.....with out doubt the best torch I have ever had.....it would be difficult finding all of the 10 moveable caches, so decided to head off early today...Friday morning....plus it was a better fit for some of the other dz trophy requirements..e.g. number of dz caches per day of the week, also for each day of the month plus the winter solstice trophy.Thankfully the weather was reasonably fine this morning, although quite over cast so the hunt was on. As soon as I had put my hat and boots on, Murder(the younger of the two canine family....4 yo) started to get pretty excited as he just loves both bush walking and travelling around in the geo fourby. My eldest canine...Sirius...is now too old(16.5 yo) to leave the comfort of his bed in front of the wood heater...which has an electric blanket of course(which he just loves and is great for his arthritis). Having walked 100's of km's with me geocaching over the years up numerous mountains, bush walking along many trails plus along vast stretches of beaches etc while geocaching, he has certainly earned his rest..an amazing companion who never gave up no matter how hard it was for him...a truly remarkeable effort.Looking at the various cache locations I had planned a clockwise route which would take me from home(Ulverstone) along South Road near the pet abbatoirs, on up to the Dial Range Reserve at  Penguin, then back along the old coast road back to Ulverstone. Looking at the 6th moveable cache on my list....'Grey Wheels'.... in it's posted location I had a pretty good idea on where it would be as I had found other moveables quite near here in the past. Once at gz...a short amount of searching found the little grey car hiding behind a large log....the little grey car cache was soon in hand and the log signed.The cache and contents are in great condition too.This cache will be set free again in a couple of days time to continue its long journey around the state...will most likely take it further east to enjoy the scenery around Low Head on the eastern side of the Tamar River.A huge thank you to 2y'stassies for giving this cache a ride over on the Spirit of Tasmania so it can begin it's scenic tour of our wonderful state of Tasmania and to Sharnie's Tribe for placing all of the 10 moveable caches so close to home.Let's hope this little cache finds many new great locations on it's travels around Tassie.Many thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for us all to share and enjoy 'Gwiber'....very much appreciated.Having secured the 6th of 10 finds on the list it is now off to find the 7th moveable cache...cheers ST

Back out ready to play

A quick visit to a popular spot in the central north west coast led to several much needed finds. Caching activity has been a little slow lately so loved it. TFTC and to 2y'stassies for bringing these within range

Out and on the move again

This morning we started caching in the Adelaide CBD. It was initially cold and overcast but soon the driving rain arrived so we decided to abandon our original plans and head to our family in the hills. We hoped the rain would lift before we started our trip east towards the ferry.

No luck weatherwise so after several hours with our children and grandchildren we said our farewells and headed towards Mount Barker. We had noticed that this cache had been moved to the Mount Barker summit road so decided on ashort detour from the highway in the hope of finding Grey wheels. As we were not familiar with the general area we hoped that we would be on sealed roads and would not encounter any water across the roads. The rain had been particularly heavy on the previous few days and the water levels in the creeks in the hills rise quickly.

The rain stopped for a short period of time and we enjoyed our trip through the countryside. Accurate coordinates soon had us close to the cache. We could see it tucked away but it was too far into the sleeve for easy retrièval so we hunted arround for a stick to aid extraction. We soon found one under a nearby tree and Grey Wheels was ours.

We will take this little car for a short trip before releasing it to continue its travels.

And while I was in the area this morning I picked up this moveable as well.
Lets see how fast the grey wheels spin
Cheers

enjoying the wetlands where to next

found will move soon

moved up the hill

grabbed this cache and left another in its place. will move soon

resting in suburbs

found this one a couple of weeks ago and it ended up under the seat of the car with the green car....very odd.

I dropped the grey wheels car off in a neat little spot as I was on my way to finding a nearby GC cache. Safe travels!

Woohoo!! After meeting SpatialRiq nearby heading for a FTF on a new puzzle cache he told me that he had just dropped off these three, so I rushed over to pick them up before the park closed, and made a quick find and replaced them with 2 others.

Unfortunately I then couldn't get out of the park as it was 5 minutes after closing time and I found myself in between 2 locked gates!

I ended up calling the help line and someone had to come and let me out...

I will get this one moved to a new location very soon. Thanks for the cache Gwiber!

back out in the wild
