Description
As the title says - not a single one of the usual moveables that have been predominant over the last few years!
In honour of the Summer Scavenger Series, here is yet another simple hide that can allow people to earn more points. The container is a regular and cyclindrical cliplock container - it may be difficult for some to find a suitable spot for such a big hide, but it's up to you how you do it!
Enjoy! FTF honours go to Goldenwattle!

Resting along the most scenic drive in the Adelaide Hills.
A quick find as we toured the area today.
We'll bring this one back to the southern suburbs and release somewhere new soon.
Thanks toy hunters.

Safe travels and happy caching!

Not a Gnome, a Frog, a Bingo or an Angel Moveable was ready to start its tour of South Australia so dropped off into the park at an early cacher meet up
When we were planning our mainland trip we noticed that there appeared to be ten GA moveable caches that we had not found hidden along the Murray River not far from the highway. They had to be added to our lists. We had hopec to collect them yesterday but time was not on our side. This meant that we had a little back tracking to do at the start of the day.
As we turned off the main road we were pleased to see that the track leading to the river was dry. We felt our 2WD, low clearance street car would be able to manage this. We were about a third of the way to the first group when the track deteriorated and we found ourselves stradling some deep ruts the result of 4WD in the wet. Slowly and carefully we made our way towards the hide. We were able to park within 25m of the hide.
Accurate coordinates led us to the well hidden swag which, to our surprise, was a supermarket bag that was well tied up. We had no time to check all the moveable so grabbed the lot and stashed the bag, moveables and all in the car. It was then a slow trip back to the junction and down the next track to the next gathering or what turned out to be an equably daunting trip to the next hide where we found another bag of caches. We then headed back to the junction with the third track and a third group of caches.
We saw some awesome camping spots by the river on our way in and out and were glad to make it out with out any damage to the car apart from a very thick layer of dust.
After a very full day we spent the evening sorting the moveables and now to log them.
Not a A Gnome .... was the next out and what a collection this was - certainly no gnome, frog, bingo or angel present in this container.
We will take this one for a short trip before releasing him in time for the Ides of March.

Murray River Caching trip 2017. With Fitzy_1965 I headed West to the area between Moulamiein and Balranald for the weekend. Day 3. I saw these in the hands of Fitzy before they were put out on Monday morning along the river Murray.

GCA 1344. Found this one while passing by - the car sellers didnt pay any attention to me.
A group of Moveables gathered here - I grabbed two to move on but not this one - left it for the next hunter.

#GA1198 - 11:10; After seeing those pesky Phoenix stretching the lead in the SSS, while I was away in Melbourne, a mission was hastily organised on my return with Agent Basil and toy hunters to collect some of the newly minted local caches which might help to close that gap. Happy that we had solved a number of puzzles to ensure the mission's success, I headed out and collected the other members of the trusty trio. The major part of our mission complete, we dropped in on Sol de lune and I was rewarded with find on this cache. I liked it so much, I took it with me and will be dropping it off again real soon, although I did have to prise it from the CO's hands when I dropped him off! TFTC toy hunters

Off on a Scavenger mission with LuckyL10n and Toy Hunters under the guidance of our very own Yoda (who was somewhere else). Found in Sol's visitor parking which was handy and this will be worth some points later this afternoon. And, my 99th GCA cache apparently

Saw this one when it was published, but knew that those who live closer would get there first, so left it and waited. Once it was re-located, I headed out for a day of caching and made it my first stop. Only headed halfway down the dirt road before taking to shanks pony for the last little section. Once at GZ, the cache did take a couple of minutes to spot, but once it was, all was good.
Thanks young TH.....nicely done on the title....like your thinking. Will move on shortly.
And just a note GW....we all need to post a 'move' log for a moveable as it indicates to others that it has been moved without going into the actual cache page.....which makes life a easier. Cheers.

[FTF] I picked up the cache and moved it a short distance toward Queanbeyan. Depending on what you are driving, the new hide could be a drive-by. Track entrance: S35° 20.663 E149° 12.420
Lovely big cache, full of goodies. TFTC toy hunters.
