Cache is now on private property so it has been removed. Sneaky sneak 2 will be out soon.
We parked in the driveway as the "Authorised Person" was already inside, and we figured we wouldn't be too long.
We actually spent a bit longer than we thought, not because the hide was tricky, but the view near the edge was interesting.
Thanks, Robmc.

First cache of the day found while travelling from Triabunna to Hobart on the last full day of our holiday in Tasmania. Nice view of the water storage area from here. Found the cache nice and quickly. TFTH
After reading the description again I am not sure if we parked in the correct place for this one . We stopped in a driveway that had a locked gate and walked in (not sure if we were really allowed to by the 'authorised persons only' signs on the gate). TNLN.
Took a little while to find this one. lots of lizards around. Found with ColdFronts on a big day of caching. TNLN TFTC.
Gate locked so bit of a walk from the car. Lots of possible hides but thought we were very lucky when in the first few minutes we pulled a container out from deep below a rock. Who seriously goes to so much trouble in the middle of nowhere to bury a single oil filter wrapped in a plastic bag instead of disposing of it properly!? Kept looking until correct buried treasure was found nearby.
Scared the heebeegeebees out of some poor bloke when I pulled into the parking spot - well, he did park smack bang in the middle. Then I noticed the big, get stuffed yellow gate blocking any further vehicular access. Oh well, we will have to hoof it.
Found the cache quickly and logged TNLN, and then wandered over to the edge of the cliff to show Tim Tam the weir. I originally place Old Convict Road on the other side of the weir, but figured it was too hard to get to, so I moved it to where it is now.....
Thanks budgie

Quick drive by on the way home. Pulled in to find some muggles had decided to use this area as their lunch stop but that didn't stop us as we wandered off to locate the cache. Found quickly by Swampy. TNLN. Thanks for the cache
Found with TassieGirl13 while holidaying down here from Qld.
An easy drive by for us on our way south.

Found this little guy on our way through this beautiful island. We were rewarded with lots of great views, a gorgeous nature and some very surprising encounter with the fascinating wildlife.
Thanks for hiding the box and for showing us this special place!
Greets from Germany... and a happy summer!

We are on an “Escaping Christmas” and “Geocaching” holiday in Tasmania. This was our second in the “Trip to Swansea” series as were headed in the opposite direction to the cache owners. This was a rather unremarkable location where we couldn’t see the water supply for the town of Orford, although we could hear water flowing in the distance. TNLNSL.
Last found of the day before searching a camping place for the night. Thanks! #906
A quick grab on the way home north after a hard climb up to Two Thumbs Up. TNLN. TFTC!
As we arrived to park, we thought we may have to bypass this one and come back another day as maintenace workers had arrived to complete some work on the equipment controlling the water supply. However, they move out of line of sight and we were able to get to GZ, locate the cache and return to our car without being muggled. TFTC
4 Seasons In One Day East Coast Ghost Tour.....Fantastic view, wandered about before stubbling on cache! TFTC
Our first of five today. It's a pity about the amount of rubbish in this fantastic spot - all cachers please take out a bag of trash! The amount and variety of skinks was really cool and the birdlife was good too. Signed the log and left a frog! Cache is in good condition. TFTC 
Heading to a mates place at Orford for the now drawn footy match, what a shame now we have to do it all again next week..

Lucky find, still working out how to use GPS. Took coin(USA), left donkey. Cheers.
Did a quick pull over into side road to let a car pass by...then around and voila...all was revealed....sneeky indeed. The passing muggles were oblivious to my cache hunting and logging. Another good addition to the eastern journey....cache is all well....many thanks Budgietas...Cheers.
Found after my sons footy game at Triabunna, in the company of my son, his girlfriend and his footy mate. Could have a couple of new converts, my sons mate and his girlfriend took turns in finding the treasure today. TFTC
With limited time, we found it not. we were @ GZ ok but didnt get a good look around for it. Plenty of gaps no booty. 
next time
next timeOn the way up the coast stopped to grab this one. While a nasty corner there was a safe pullout with a good turning circle. Jr Geo was onto this one is a flash. Nice quick find. TFTC
Had to wait a while here for some muggles and their dogs to leave. Then it as a quick easy find. Thanks.
Find number 12 for the 9th day of our caching trip to Tasmania and the Mega Event. Found at 1815, number 124 for the trip so far. Parked close by, and made a quick grab on our way south.
Cheers

Missed stopping at a few as we passed them. Did manage to stop at this one. Took the Eagle geocoin and left a one dollar US golden coin. Thanks for the hide.
Sneakily sneaked up on this one at 1450hrs as the third for the day and third and last one of yours for the day. A few mugglers parked near my car but did not interupt my search and find. love the structure near by. TFTC and cheers again OldSaint.
I went sneaky sneak...in my sneakers...forgetting I hadn't worn my hiking boots....and slipped face first over some rocks. I was actually quite impressed with how many places I hurt myself considering how minor the fall was!
But being a bit single-minded, I kept looking for the cache, and managed to snare it from its hiding place before realising I was bleeding from numerous wounds on my hands and arms. So I asked Cheesy Pig to log it for me while I did some field first aid on myself.
Nice area though - i've always wanted to stop at this area. Took dirt and bruises, left blood and skin. Thanks for the cache!

This cache proved a bit of a battle with Greenish suffering a caching injury. After a series of bandaids and a bandage for her wrist we managed to find the cache and pushed on. TNLN thanks for the cache.
Thats 3 down and 1 to go in this 'corner series'
