I went up the mountain to log a Virtual cache and came down finding GA caches. This cache and log were good. The coordinates spot-on. TFTC fitzy_1965.

Dropped Wilma at school and thought I'd do some caches on the way home. One thing led to another and I was on a roll to collect the GCA caches of the Alpha/phonetic alphabet series. Very happy to have these unfound piles of caches turned into smiles. This was a nice add on and one that was for once in the bush and not guard rail some scratched were welcome given the variatiy. Thanks Fitzy.

Easy find at the start of a nice walk with good views of the lake. TFTC

Headed out with fitzy at lunchtime to grab a cache each. While he headed up the road to grab one of my hides, I headed bush for one of his.

After our FTF on the nearby November we went for a short walk in the bush to look for this cache. We loved the trees in this secion of bush particularly the gums with the great colours of bark and attractive form.

We identified the hide and after carefully removing the cover we were able to sign the log. Container and contents were in very good condition. We do like the openness of the bush here as we can clearly see where we are putting our feet and what is on the ground ahead of us - always an advantage.

Thanks for this cache Fitzy_1965. We are looking forward to exploring a little more of the mountain as we head up.

I was at ANU doing a few caches today, so ventured over the road to grab this one on the way back to the car.

Found all OK.

Thanks.

found after deciding I wasn't done with caching today. quick walk from the carpark, and a slightly longer rummage around for the cache. once spotted, it was an easy retrieve and sign. TFTC fitzy!

Came up the botanic gardens track. didnt realize this track was here. an easy find. Thanks.

This was the first gate we tackled as we came down off the mountain. A couple of pushbike muggles were threatening to overtake us on the way down and that was a bit scary.
Once a parking spot was found a short walk soon had us at GZ.
Thanks, it is great to visit a city with so many GCA caches.

Out with the bunny and we decided to drop in and grab a cache or two while we were in the area.

#GA1381 - 14:40; Dropped by on the way into the city to fill another hole in the calendar. Parked close to GZ and took the stroll down. Checked a couple of places before the well camouflaged cache was found. Nice to complete the series so far. TFTC fitzy_1965

Saw these new ones come out while away for the long weekend and fully expected they'd be found before I returned......but alas not. So Headed out today for a road trip around Black Mountain and had no problems making the finds.

Good to see a few more GCA caches out about. Thanks for the cache, along with the *FTF* fitzy.
