Was suppose to log this a few weeks ago. A big fat DNF. Area looked like it was tidied up with no sticks or leaves around tree. Came with a fellow geocacher who had found this one previously and they also couldn't find again.
Could the cache owner check that this cache is still here please as there have been a lot of DNFs recently.
Like a few geocachers before us, we didn't find this one and suspect that it has been removed.
We tried last week and today. But no luck for us.
The place is clean, maybe too clean...

Unfortunately didn't find but had a wonderful morning walk in this lovely peaceful place.
TFTC - out picking blueberries today in Lilydale and thought we would check out the local falls.
No sign of a bees nest but a few muggles, almost caught putting the cache back! Got some ideas for a potential earthcache in the area. TFTC find #135
Nice spot to take a picture unfortunately there's was a bees nest close bye TFTC

First timers!! Scottish and American team AND Kiwi - not to forget the Aussies!!
Needed the hint for this one, the GPS was all over the place. Bit of water coming down the falls. Lots of people here today, never seen it so busy. TFTC
Found after a short walk up from where I was staying visting the relatives. A bit gloomy weather wise around here today. Took the TB "Primary" Purpose - Peace for relocation to the mainland. Given this TB has been all over Oz so far, lets see if we can launch it overseas. LNSL. Thanks !!!
Great cache in a great location

Left travel bug and also twilight key ring brand new In packaging.

A pleasant walk to GZ, plenty of tree ferns along the way, there wasn't much water at the falls though. The park was the venue for a hen's party, it looked like the girls were getting well pickled.
Thanks for the cache michaels mob.

Nice walk good spot for an overnight stay in our van for our first night in tassie.
There were three or four travelling muggles set up in their caravans when we arrived. Made a quick walk to gz, enjoyed the view and made a quick find.
Took a drive out from Launceston to the Bridstowe Lavender Farm today. On the way there, we saw the sign for this waterfall so stopped off on the way back and saw that a cache was here. Lovely spot. Cache found thanks to the hint which made it easier for us to search with a couple of muggles below. TFTC!
Mr and Mrs Seek3rs are over in Tasmania on holidaying from SA ...
Another day of caching ... now on the way home from a day in Launceston.
We have been to these very scenic waterfall on quite a few holiday occassions before, and so was going to stop here again ... added bonus, now that I'm a geocacher, that I know there is a cache here. So had to find it.
Easy find - where hint said it would be.
Added Seek3rs sticker and date to the log.

Can a fellow geocacher please let me know if my orange beaver TB is in this cache? If not, I can move it to unknown. Thanks.
WOW...Simply stunning place. Thanks for bringing me here. Amazing all the places you would not visit if not for geocaching. GORGEOUS!!!! TFTC TNSL
A most enjoyable stroll after the bakery visit. No leeches but wonderful scenery. TFTC
Found this cache after enjoying the lovely short walk to these falls. Plenty of water tumbling down the falls after the recent rains. They both looked most impressive. We grabbed the 3 trackables sitting in the cache to move them on shortly and deposited another one. Thanks michaels mob for another great hide. [^]

"...Dropped off a few Travel Bugs that have been with us for way too long."
One of those was Axcel's Take a Kid Geocaching GC. He didn't actually do an online drop, instead he "discovered it" and wrote "Dropped into GC1V4H4". The fact that he took it from an event more than two years ago, along with several others, and DIDN'T LOG THE RETRIEVE, doesn't seem to bother him.
Since pandpp hasn't corrected the error I've now placed it in A touch of Paradise. If it isn't in this cache please let me know and I'll send a stronger email to pandpp.

My coin "Regions of Germany" was dropped in this cache, but with the wrong log. I correct it with this log, so that it can continue its journey.

One of our travel bugs was droppen in this cache, but with the wrong log. We correct it with this log, so that the current location of the coin is seen on the Internet pages.
A lovely easy find with the kids, whilst the better half made lunch. We used the hint to locate it.

A pleasant little spot. We were on our way here and discovered that this cache was here too! TFTC
Really liked the Elpacas across the road from the park. The path was in very good condition today... no issues at all and a nice waterfall at the end. TFTC.

Hi Again,
I thoroughly enjoyed this cache especially since waterfalls are one of my passions. Never been here before and you aptly named this cache. In fact, I would rate it in the top ten of my cache finds.
The walk in along the side of the creek was great. Track still a little wet but not slippery or dangerous.
The first view of the falls was impressive. Plenty of water made for a great cascading wall.
Found the cache and replaced it at 0957hrs.
Up to the next level and again a magic sight. Another wall of champagning water.
Absolutely loved the cache!!!
Thanks very much for taking me here, the cache, a great walk and a beautiful time in caching.
TFTC and cheers; OldSaint.

A short walk in the crisp air had this one bagged in no time! A good assortment of swaps in this cache. Tnln thanks.
A pleasant walk to GZ have visited these falls before caching, nice to come back again TFTC
I wouldn't have bothered looking at this beautiful paradise if it weren't for this cache!
Fantastic cache! It was a wet walk to the falls, but well worth it for both the cache and the waterfalls. A wonderful way to finish off our day out of touring and caching. TFTC
I have never visited Lilydale Falls before, I have lost count how many times I have driven past it on the way to or from a logging coup to maintain the machinery.
These falls are lovely and intimate, we experienced them in the rain which was a great (and wet) way to see them. Everything around glistened and all the colours were so very dramatic. No leeches either
We found the cache and signed the log. I must say the quality of caches here in Tassie far exceed those anywhere else in the country so far.

Nice walk to falls, flat most of the way, then up and down at the end. The falls were good, with a nice amount of water falling. Try's and bringing me to this location.
Beautiful place to lodge a cache, enjoyed the stopover and stayed the night. picked up trackable
What a great place to visit, once again I would not have come to this spot apart for geocaching, located cache, and went up to next set of falls. Took Kiwi chain and left yellow hand keychain. There are so many keychains here. Anyone got a better suggestion to call them than a cluster or a clutch
Had to use the cache hint as the trusty HTC Desire just couldn't cope with the trees in this location for a GPS fix. Found ok. TNLN. Waterfalls were really good with all that rain last night.
I've been here before. Lovely walk to the falls. Pity about the ants trying to cart the cache away.
Nice flow of water over both falls today.
TNLN. Thanks MM

With all the rain that has been happening lately I was hoping the falls would look good. They didn't look good, they were great. Pity about the ants that had seemed to take over the cache location, came away from there smelling like ants.Have always liked Lilydale but now have even more reason to like it. TFTC and this new and wonderful spot that I have seen
a raging torrent after the recent rain. so cool to think of all the muggles walking straight past.
Certainly is a touch of Paradise even if it was freezing here today. We used the clue and took a keyring as there was more than the expected 10. (We were looking for items to put in a cache that we are replacing for a S.A. hider on Mt William "Hillbilly" and hope you don't mind) We continued up to the second falls and took some shots in this beautiful area. Thanks for pointing out this great spot for us.
