SRY ALL
TREES HAVE HAD THERE HAIR CUT AND CACHE WENT WITH THE BRANCHES
WILL REPLACE SOON
 
08-Mar-11
A tree has split in half possibly affecting the cache.
 
07-Mar-11
Searched and searched couldn't find it. There was a tree branch down, don't know if that matters???
 
06-Mar-11
We found it on the ground level because the tree was down.
Thanks FLANGE_1&TRIBE for the cache. Smile

Another tricky hide that was staring us in the face!! TFTC
 
08-Feb-11
A very sneaky cache took a while to find.
Thanks.
 
03-Jan-11
A good camo'd hide but the log is saturated and needs maintenance.
 
30-Dec-10
Good hide!
 
27-Dec-10
A quick find was made but the log was totally saturated, so we replaced it with a couple of pieces of new paper. TFTC very clever
 
26-Dec-10
This is a difficult (more than D2) and good hide. After some time we found it. There's only a lump of paper in it, needs really maintenance. Thanks! #943

Walked right up to it. Great hide, very sneaky!!

Cache is soaked and too wet to write in the log, it is about time that the shire mowed the grass, it is knee high.

cheers

Found after delicious lunch at pier with friend. Couldn't sign as log too wet
 
01-Nov-10
Log book too wet to sign awesome cache though !
 
29-Oct-10
Second visit to sight and success

Unfortunantly the log is wet through and needs replacement.

TFTC and the joy of finding a previous DNF.

 
15-Sep-10
Found it but could not write in log as it is very wet but still a very good hide.
 
31-Jul-10
Very good cache but i found it.
 
19-Jun-10
I'm sure that didn't form naturally Wink Cheers Gav [6183]

A tricky find - needed the clue.
 
23-May-10
I used to bring the child to this park when visiting the area many yeras ago. A quick find when I realised it was a micro and the hint gave it away. The log was a little damp. TFTC
 
23-May-10
Ah another good Flange hide! This was our third time here, the other times there were too many muggles about so didnt even attempt. Agree on previous log that maintenence needed on the camo, but otherwise its great! TFTC
 
30-Apr-10
Good hide, cover is losing some of the camo. TFTC.
 
16-Apr-10
great hide, went to the wrong side initially then walked around and found myself starring right at it, then it clicked..... log was quite wet and could hardly add my graffiti.....
cheers 4 da cache Flange_1&tribe!
 
08-Apr-10
It took us quite some time hunting around GZ before we located this cache. In the end, the top of the cache caught the strong sunlight and highlighted it against the surroundings. A great hide. TFTC
 
27-Feb-10
Coming onto dark we though we would tackjle this one after dinner. Had a fantastic meal at the local pub in the centre of town before tryting for this one. Sister in law really was desperate to find one and with hubbys help they tried but could not find. Lucky for me I had a fair idea but was pleasantly surprised with this hide. An excellent hide - well done. Signed log TFTC
 
11-Feb-10
We pulled up here with Maccamob to find a bowls tournament going on, a quick look at where GZ was and we knew this would not be a big issue. We searched between muggles and soon had the well hidden cache in hand. Being low tide there was lots of exposed mud but the view was still good from GZ.
We have a series in Victoria that shows Wooden Parks but this seems to be the way they are all going now.
Thanks FLANGE_1&TRIBE for the cache
 
11-Feb-10
Found by Mary & David in company with Team Crackers at 1500. Not a soul about in the playground, and the tide was way out, so nobody fishing either. Our thanks to FLANGE_1&TRIBE as always.
 
10-Feb-10
Had a look for this one before without luck but today Mrs Neribil was on the ball and soon we were on our way. Thanks
 
27-Jan-10
Originally found on my trip down on 2.07.2009 but for some reason forgot to log it then.
 
17-Jan-10
Found with dean_erwin.
 
17-Jan-10
Having seen a similar cache with a similar clue we knew what to expect. Nice hide Smile
 
13-Jan-10
Clever hide. Teenage muggles at the equipment didn't pay us much attention thank goodness. TFTC
 
06-Jan-10
Ingenious find! The camo on the cache has been replaced so it was a bit harder than we antisipates based on previous comments. TFTC!
 
23-Dec-09
Found, very clever hide. First micro that we had come across. Tide was out, kids were hoping for something bigger.
 
23-Dec-09
well after atempting 4 other cache's over the past two days we found this one even though it was a micro. Very clever hide but good clue. Found lid off and on ground. Nothing found in cache. Replaced lid and put cache back. Cammo is off lid making it easy to spot. Kids thought it was great to find something so small.
 
16-Oct-09
Can't believe I missed this one first time around.Approached from the perfect direction as it was looking straight at me. Camo has worn off making it quite visible. Log was very damp....so decided to sit and take in the serenity for awhile with 4paws until it had dried off sufficiently. Really enjoyed this one...clever hide again. TFTC F&T...Cheers.
 
26-Sep-09
Nice find in the dark - Thanks Madchilli LOL
Another clever hide - again could not sign log book very wet. TFTF
 
26-Sep-09
Find 12 on the Last Ditch Attempt at 2000 finds.... Full on dark now.
Found after about 5 minutes but once again, the log was very wet and it was difficult to sign. The log paper is starting to seperate which is also not helpful.
Thanks.
 
23-Sep-09
A nice hiding spot for this micro but unfortunately the Tassie weather is giving it a bit of a beating. The case should be replaced as it is leaking and the log is soaked. TFTC.
 
08-Jul-09
I'm now learning to expect the unexpected with FLANGE_1&TRIBE hides so an open mind sure helped finding this one (so did the hint he he)
Another lovely spot by the water and I dont like to sound like a broken record but spot on coords again Big Grin
Thanks guys
 
14-Jun-09
Clue was handy and found after a short search TFTC
 
31-May-09
Took a while but finally found it. Again a very clever hide but we're getting used to thinking outside the square when we head up the Tamar.
 
13-May-09
Poked and prodded among the leaves as there's been a super high tide...this one evading me again. Another good excuse to come back some time...so all good. Cheers.
 
22-Apr-09
Replaced missing log and container


all is well


for now anyway

have fun
 
19-Apr-09

couldnt find but was with the flange and tribe at the time so he will fix up
 
14-Mar-09
The torches came out for this cache, a nice stroll down, then the cache was found - with the clue. We are still rather damp, but as it hadn't stopped raining what else could we expect. Nice spot for kids.
 
14-Mar-09
Found by torch light; there were no muggles out in the dark and rain to make the find difficult! Lottie enjoyed trying to find every puddle between the GZ and the car; I think she succeeded!

Thank you for the cache.

Another lovely view out over the Tamar Smile
After a walk down to the water's edge I had a poke around for the cache.
I poked some more,then some more Red Face
It took a while but finally I poked in the correct spot and found me the cache Big Grin
 
08-Feb-09
