Had a good look around and checked the hint, but nothing. Found a spot where I thought it would be.

Is this still here???

This one has been replaced too many times.
Thanks Fore! the memories....

Like the NGD I didn't have any luck here. Read all the logs and had another look, but couldn't find anything.

Were at GZ and searched all the nearby trees and their respective forks, but no luck. This one may be gone after all the recent heavy rain.

Found 28-1-12. Quick find with the right Flora. TFTC.

Nice easy start for the day TFTC..

Found this one on a day of caching prior to starting my new job tomorrow. The co-ordinates seemed to be out a bit, but with the help of the hint we soon had the cache in hand. Great container! TNLNSL TFTC

Nice work TFTC Fore!

I was trundling around in the pine trees, looking for a place to stash a frog
when I chanced upon a familiar object that could only pertain to one cacher.

Now could I remember where it came from?
I should have got close.
There are only two locations that fit the clue.
So if it is not in one look in the other!

I can confirm this one is missing

Came to do a number of caches on Mulligans Flat. Looked high and low for this one on the way in and on the way back, with no luck. There's more to do on the Flat, so you can bet I'll be back for another try!

Found @ 1020 on the start of a caching run (well, amble) through Mulligans Flat. My GPSr still had no idea where to look, but a quick scout-around soon had the cache in hand. TNLNSL-TFTC.

Last stop of the day because at this point I was feeling somewhat the worse for wear. Perhaps the conclusion I reached is that 5 gym classes on a Saturday is not a good warm up for a caching day on Sunday.

Last one for the day. Considering that we planned 24 and wasted time looking for archived caches because of a lack of judicious filtering.... it wasn't a bad day out..

So R says "we should find another Fore! cache" and L says "ok, lets do it" but there were muggle walkers aplenty and we had to wait for them to go on their walk into Mulligans Flat. Once the coast was clear, a quick pickup. TFTC

A quick find by geowife and a very neat container. TFTC

It was a race to this cache from the dog cache between Browngang who was on foot and Pprass and I in the Patrol. Browngang won the race easily and his reward was to fill out the log for everyone. Thanks for the cache Fore!

Found at 2.25pm GAFF5 in the company of Blackie_71, Browngang, Chewinprickles, and Robmc.
Headed off for a walk to pick up a couple of the caches around here and we got to GZ in no time as most of the guys are into some sort of power walking thing! It was then a bit of a race to find the cache which woke us all up again.
Thanks Fore!

Found on a day out with pprass, Blackie_71, Robmc and Chewinprickles. TFTC.

First cache on our walk through Mulligans Flat. TFTC

Tftc.

A very creative cache indeed. Easy find, great cache, thank you Fore!

Ah ha most excellent! Found w ozzemuke

A relatively easy find in the dark and the container was wedged! into a nice spot. The real fun happened after lochb and I returned to the car and the pursuit began, you can check her log for the rundown! Thanks Fore! for some great caches across the area tonight!

Found in the company of hgl at about midnight tonight. We suggest that others don't go for this cache after dark for at least a while.

We found the cache after a short search, and were just back in the car getting ready for the next cache, when a car stopped on the road behind us, leaving lights and engine on. This was rather odd. I drove on, into the roundabout, and all around, and then out to the left. The car followed us. I did the same at the next roundabout. We were getting rather concerned by then - why would anyone follow us? How do you get rid of them? We continued on, putting aside all thoughts of finding more caches, hoping that those following us would lose interest. They did not. We decided to go somewhere where there were other people - and the Maccas we'd stopped at before seemed a good idea. The car followed us, but not into the Maccas carpark - it waited outside, lights on, ready to follow us again. We went inside and asked for the nearest police station - which luckily was in a nearby building, through the back exit. We walked to the station, and reported that we'd been followed by a car. Well... as it turned out, they'd been in contact with the people in the car - they were residents of Forde, who'd seen us with torches looking for the cache, and thought we'd been involved in break-ins that have happened in this area. They'd decided to report us and follow us. We explained what we'd been doing and showed on the map where we'd been. They'd heard of geocaching and were no longer concerned. Glad to say, they also sent the residents home. Apparently, they'd had some similar reports (of people with torches in the area?) in the recent past. After this incident, we decided to give up for the night. A bit too much excitement for one night! TFTC

Another quick one in-between storms rolling through. Interesting

TFTC

easy find TFTC

Found whilst on a nice afternoon walk around forde. TFTC.

Easy find by Ms Bushies2. Thanks Fore!

Found 7.27pm

Allrounder told me she had a good cache for me to find, she was right. The container for this one is so fitting. In the dark with the spot light on I got the fright of my life as a roo made me jump nice and high as it hit fence a short distance away. I found the cache but made allrounder replace it for me as I wasnt real keen on putting my hand back in the spot in case of spiders!

TFTC

6th of 9 in North Canberra today, on Pupil Free Day. A very nice, but short walk to the cache. Very nice container and name to go with it. Nice area. Thanks.

Nice container. TFTC

We were out checking out our childrens new block of land and turned on our new GPS and this cache popped up so thought we would have a go at it. It was a nice easy find and the container was pretty flash as well, like someone else said lucky we had tweezers. This was our very first find with our new Garmin 62s!!!! TFTC

11pm and we hadn't grabbed a cache for the day so headed out to this one as our last attempt was unsuccessful given it had been muggled. A quick grab as we knew were to go.

Good to see this one back. It was exactly in the spot that I didnt find it last time due to muggling. Nice container - my nano tool certainly helped.

TFTC

Found by geomum. A great container - very clever. TFTC.

Found while caching with Geomum good one with the waterproof cache good idea

Clever hide & great cache! Lucky we had our tweezers with us. Found while out with GeoKids. TFTC

Got all excited that we were the second people to find this cache, but then realised this was a new log!! DOH! The hardest part about this cache was fitting the log back into the cache!!! TFTC

At night wearing heels, found with Meeks, love it!

Cache replaced and ready to go!
Please beware prying eyes as you search and replace - let's avoid a re-muggling!

Second maintenance visit today! Makes this particularly easy.. I just need to remember to watch where I am going when walking with GPS. Unfortunately I am not very coordinated, so I need to tHink about these things. Nice to be back in the Gungahlin area but not sad to not be living there anymore.

Raspberry Vinegar

this one has indeed disappeared! I will have to prevail upon allrounder to source some more appropriate containers!!

Parkes5 and I searched high and low and couldn't find this one. Checked recent logs and looks to be missing. Oh well had a nice walk anyway!!!!

I'll head on out there when I get a chance and take a peek... armed with a new container of course... although.. how I am going to replace that one is not quite clear at this point... thinking cap ON!

Think thus ones has "gone south". Searched for some time and even with the hint couldn't locate. Previous cachers have had the same problem.

Had quite a good look, but couldnt find it. Recent logs (not in my GPS!) indicate I'm not alone.

This was my starting point of a 13km caching trek.......couldn't see it for love or money. Happens this was the end point as well so after getting my eye in with 18 other caches had another crack at it........nope....still no sign of it......maybe I was all cached out!!

Ahhh DNF at the end of our caching walk We searched everywhere and even the hint didn't help us. The GPS coordinates kept us guessing too but the obvious spot seemed a bit empty. We did suspect this one may have been muggled but it was dark and we were very tired at this stage. We did take some comfort that HumpheryBBear logged a DNF too.

A great container and an easy find. Great info on the board nearby about an old school. Thanks Fore!. TFTH...SL...TNLN

Nicely hidden. Love the container.

Nice hide with an awesome container. TFTC.

Nicely hidden. Love the container.

After a little search, eventually found the cache. Nice container

Another wait while some muggles finished their visit to the nearby picnic area - we read all the available signs and talked about hiking up the trail very soon (maybe next weekend? - hope so!). The very clever and cute cache is in good condition TFTC!

Very easy find in a loverly area. TFTC

This was a bit of fun to reach as our navman didn't have all these roads marked!!! But my trust gps with the free OSM maps had a route from the other side to here and we made our way through all the new streets and suburbs to this nice spot. It is certainly a popular walking and riding spot for the locals but we luckily had no problems retrieveing the cache inbetween the passing muggle traffic. And then we managed to gnap two gnomes that were resting nearby (from GCA). Thanks Fore! it seems we often find one of your caches when we visit Canberra, did you hide most of the ACT caches yourself?!!!

#176 - very cute. SL TFTC

Clever little cache. Fore indeed

Thanks to my lovely [xx(] geocaching assistant, allrounder, the log has been replaced. Come and get it!

I now see where the name Fore! comes from.

Found whilst out with mr_roo
Log is full.

Log is chockers.

A quick find on way home from shopping - clever hide - TFTC

TFTC - very clever hide

Stopped by a grabbed this one while I was round the area. TFTC

More new to me spots, great hide with a find after a search and a promise to investigate Mulligan's Flat a bit more. Caching still more interesting than golf, I liked the utilisation of the equipment, dont think that Mrs Dingbat12 would appreciate such utilisation of her gear though.

Found with Well Station Geoscouts, Hawk, Geostrom and Concretegnome.

Very clever hide which I grabbed on route for a caching bike ride. TFTC

A morning bike ride with Newberys around the area to pick up a few caches in the area with this one being the eleventh of the day. You really needed balls to make and place this cache Fore! Cheers and thanks for the cache!

Like Rbirtles said, I bet that won't fly far. Thanks Fore! a nice easy one.

This is a beaut place for a bike ride. Quite a string of caches to follow.
The plovers, unfortunately, seem to have taken up most of the park and I DNFed a whole string.
I thought I might end up DNFing my own hide.

So having returned from my quick maintenance ride I had to feign exhaustion and the desperate need to sit for a drink.
The collection of muggles gathering eventually set off for their jog and I could return the log.
Ah, look at that - they were swooped by a magpie.

Another imaginative container from Fore! TFTC

Oh, that's a cute little cache, thank goodness fore! tweezers!! tftc

A fun filled long weekend of caching with the family. TFTC.

9th for the day, after avoiding a few magpies and other swooping birds from previous caches.
SL - TFTC...

A nice cache to introduce some venturers/rovers to geocaching as part of our joint night. TFTC!

A nice quick find whilst visiting Canberra.

TNLN

I am sure this container was once one if mine TFTC

OK, have kind of a funny story with this one. Arrive at the carpark (you will see what I mean when you do it) as was planning on meeting some other cachers here to do the other local caches. Was early so planed on doing this one while waiting. I get a lock on GZ, but there is this guy sitting on the tail gate of his SUV, I figure he is harmless and proceed to GZ. Retrive cache and then look up to see that the same guy is now walking up to me introducing himself as "Agent Basil"...... Was not expecting him to be here wairing for me and having only meet him once before didn't recognise him (sorry)...

Anyway, what a cool cache container, but what would you expect from Fore?? TFTC

A nice drive by on the way home from a morning cache hike! Easy find, and another nice walking trail to remember! TFTC!

This was my first find! THANKS! Had a ball with the geohound who was distracted by the nearby puppy park.

Very nice container. Enjoyed a stroll up the nearby track while I was here. TFTH

#4166 How appropriate is it that a "Fore" cache be one of these type of containers. A bit of stealth has to be used here by day and night.
Thanks

Love your create container. Stayed there for lunch and rest... SL. Thanks Fore!

My GPS - iPhone had ball of a time - it went nuts. I did the normal thing and looked in all the usual hides and bingo!

Thanks Fore! - gets me out the house instead of being a couch potato.

TFTC!

Easy find. Just had to wait for some people to pass. TFTC

Un-fore-get-a-ball

Found with Moneydork, Rediguana, Tofska, and Pohutukawa on our road trip to the Wagga Mega event.
Some interesting history here.
TFTC

Ah yes, something a bit out of place. T4TC, M@

Ahh, Fore-tunately I recognised it for what it was. TForeTC

Took a little hunt, but the conclusion came to the Fore! Cheers Gav [5079]

Found with matt_stomper and SW2092. A night find by torchlight. I liked the container!! TFTC

Found with SW2092 and Shell_seeker of our Thursday cache night. TFTC!

Found at 21:40 with shell_seeker and matt_stomper - the second of our short caching run this evening.

The GPSr's sent us round in circles for a short while, but I decided on where I thought was the most obvious location, and there was the cache

Those micro logsheets are hell to write on when there isn't a smooth, flat, and steady surface nearby - sorry if we've made a mess of it...

Thanks Fore!

Very quick and easy find.
Found with Hoojar.
Cheers.

No issues with this one as we zipped around grabbing the local caches.

Cheers
