Found with smittengranny and isopeda on a morning out down south. Some huff and puff getting up the hill but a great view of Theodore from the top. Tftc
 
30-Oct-23
Out and about with barb2e and SmittenGranny. We tried to find the shortest access to this cache and that involved 64 steps. But we did it. Nice views, lots of wildflowers. It started to get very blustery while we were up here. TFTC *Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*
 
30-Oct-23
With three quarters of the Monday caching crew back together, we went out on the trail again this morning. This was another of barb2e's choices for the day, and so we made our way to GZ. That makes it sound easy, but both barb2e and Smittengranny huffed and puffed a bit on their way up the hill. Well, not so much, but almost hands and knees at one stage as we followed Isopeda striding it out up front. I am so fortunate to have such great geobuddies. The log was signed, and we were off to the next one.TFTC SdL

Found it! A cool little find on a stroll after work!
 
27-Nov-21
Trying to get a few more points for the Mountain Summit challenge, I took a walk in this pleasant little corner of dear old Tuggeranong - may be the first time I'm on these paths! I only found two of the three caches I hoped for, but it was still a good outing.

Tuggeranong Suburbs - THEODORE: Theodore is one of those suburbs I didn't know existed until recently - all this land was just the mysterious realm of the "Calwell Valley" over the hill. Interesting info, thank you!
 
11-Oct-21
Such a feel-good find!
 
04-Aug-21
Either it’s very hard to find either it’s not here anymore. I’ve been looking for it for too long now.
 
29-Jul-21
Great views from here with minimum effort to get to GZ. Loved the cache hide too. Thank you!
 
16-Jun-21
Sneaky sneaky! It really is where you would think it is.
 
02-May-21
Found it on my second circuit! Lovely hide, great camo and all good here. Am grateful for the find - this is only my second find in two hours after my last dnf. Never mind, brilliant weather to be out and about, lovely to be in a t-shirt in winter. Tftc
 
16-Nov-20
We looked everywhere but couldn't find it
 
11-Nov-20
Enjoyed the walk up to this one. Obviously managed to approach the hide from the right direction as immediately spotted what I suspected to be the camo. Moved in and bingo, there it was. Log signed and cache returned. TFTC. Look forward to more in your series.

I was never really sure where Theodore is, and now I know. TFTC Sol de lune.

A clever hide - thank you!

I jogged up the path to this cache, but luckily, there's a log here to sit on and catch your breath before starting your hunt! ️ TFTC!

Tftc. Took the short walk from Axe to Grind for a quick find. Took a few minutes of careful maneuvering to work the cache out of its hide, as the last finder used more muscle than required to hide it. Signed, returned and off back to the car.
 
27-Nov-18
Took a bit to find this one. I actually looked here early on but failed to spot the cache. After looking in many other places I returned and looked again and luckily spied the cache this time. It was neatly hidden. Halfway back to the car I realised that today is the 27th. On no! I signed the log as the 26th and I think I signed all of yesterday’s logs as the 25th. It seems I’ve been a day out but I don’t know how long for. Whoops. TFBMH for the lovely views. TFTC
 
17-Nov-18
This cache caused quite the debate between us as we argued over notable landmarks we thought it'd be at, finally giving in, I followed my partner to where he believed the cache was and it proved to be a quick find. Tftc! Smile
 
22-Aug-18
Headed to the higher trees as that is what I was expecting, but had to come down a bit as indicated by the GPS. Cache found OK.

Thanks,
 
29-Jul-18
Ahaaa that’s where you’re hiding! Thanks for the cache. Made a relatively quick find late on a drizzly afternoon. Better head home before the rain!
 
30-Jun-18
Excellent. Gets you up where you would not go. Good view.
 
27-May-18
Theodore is full of really old caches. This was the 3rd theodore, within 500m but this was easily the youngest.... being only 8 years old.

Really, really good camo, I see very little chance of this one getting muggled anytime soon. but, find it I did and quickly returned.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache
 
22-May-18
Another cache in the Tuggernong Suburbs series, and another Sol de lune cache to get him further ahead as my 3rd most found cache owner! Razz

I walked up to this cache from "Axe To Grind" nearby. I stuck to the left hand side of the fence, which was the wrong side, but I soon worked that out and found an easy route over the top of it.

I got to GZ and searched for a few minutes, probably the longest I have searched for a cache all day! I eventually found it though, my GPS had me a few metres out and it was in an unexpected spot and very well covered in camo!

Thanks for another cache Sol de lune!
 
06-May-18
Found it.. thanks
 
02-Oct-17
Muggle friend stayed on the track below with her fluffies while the hound and I made the short ascent to GZ. A bit of a search and there was the cache. Thanks Sol de lune
 
09-Sep-17
Beaut views from up here . A bit cool and windy today but all good.

Nice location and cache well hidden .
Many thanks to sol de lune.
 
07-Sep-17
Luckily I judged this one right and climbed through the gate and followed the path directly to GZ. Not that it would have mattered as there was an easy part of the fence to step over near GZ. My iPhone had me off a bit, but searching the obvious places I soon had the cih. Nice area around here, very pleasant. Tftc!!!

Despite the weather, I headed out for some geocaching and exercise. I started with the first WP for a couple of multis, while it was snowing! By the time I came here the snow had stopped, and cleared up nicely for the rest of the afternoon. Cache easily found. TFTC.

Found with The Matetrix on cool evening after training. TNLNSL TFTC

19-Aug-17
Having walked across from Axe to Grind an easy approach and walk. No worries about fences with the step through gate but noticed the holes in the fence closer to the cache which would have worked as well. Did circle around before noticing a likely spot and a look soon had the cache found. Nice spot here to sit and log, thanks for the cache Sol de lune.

TFTC - nice walk and view here

Kids eventually found it after enjoying the view.
 
15-Jul-17
Took Saf's bike and The Woofer, and spent a few hours running/riding around Tuggeranong to collect some stray caches.

This one was a nice quick find after the short slog up the hill. Left some goodies. TFTC Sol! Smile

Found during a lovely afternoon clearing up some local caches. A pleasant walk, a delightful view and an easily found geocache - sweet! TFTC Smile

Great spot on a hot summer day. Thanks for the cache
 
05-Jan-17
Found on a morning bike ride from home. TFTC.
 
02-Jan-17
Monday 2 January 2017 - a hot summer's afternoon in the high 20s with heavy clouds providing momentary relief from the heat. Found 5 from 5 caches after a long bike ride and a 5km walk around the hills.

Used my bike torch to located the cache way down the hole and have now placed it back to a reasonable, findable place as per the star rating and to the wishes of the CO ie. no rocks while still not visible on approach Smile. Thx p2p. TFTC Sol de lune.

#1382 Aftet a short walk through a fence and 1 gate, I arrived at GZ. Quick find. Great views too. Thanks SDL.
 
20-Apr-16
Fantastic day for a walk. Easy find for the geokids
 
16-Jan-16
I made the short walk from 'Axe to grind', and located the cache quite quickly, however it took me a while longer to extract the cache from deeeep inside its hiding spot. Had to fashion a tool from resources found nearby, but came away with a win. Replaced and camouflaged as I'm sure the CO intended! Thanks, Sol de lune. Smile

Decided to head deep into the South of Canberra this afternoon to collect a few caches in different suburbs after realising I am not far off having found caches in all the suburbs for the Canberra Mapping Challenge. Bobl27 and I collected 5 caches in different suburbs and finished off with a couple of fun Bridge Banters! We started far south and worked our way northwards - all caches looked for were found, signed and returned as found!

Second on the list - Theodore! Did a couple of this series. I enjoyed the short walk to GZ. We wandered about aimlessly for a while until I checked a place that Bobl27 had already checked - duh! Nicely hidden indeed. Dropped a TB in, but no TB in the cache when found.

Thanks Sol de lune for the cache and neat hide!
 
27-Jul-15
Another one done. Yay! I found this as part of a daily streak I am working on - almost 2 months now. The first month wasn't so bad but now it's getting a little more challenging to make sure I don't miss a day.

Thanks go to Sol de lune for placing this cache and maintaining it. It's a great contribution to the Geocaching community and much appreciated. I enjoyed finding this one. Went for an early morning walk in zero degrees with geodog. Watch out for ice! This cache was another "Found it" for me.

I enjoy the challenge of the cache hunt - read the notes, decipher the cache requirements, and go searching for the hidden gem. My new GPS is working great and it has really improved my geocaching experience. TFTC! Cheers. [Blue]Jump Pilot[/Blue] Cool

On holidays and travelling from Canberra to Bega to visit friends for a week. I selected this cache as I had friends who lived close by and could see the hillside from their front verandah. A good walk and good views. TFTC

Having spent the morning at Tidbinbilla, we picked this one up on our way home. It is such great history lesson to come across these caches and find out a little more about how this city has grown up, and as to why the suburbs have their names.

Thanks SDL for another!

A very quick and easy find. The GPS was spot on. No treasure and the listed TB was not there also.

I found this cache for my daily streak after school. My mum parked nearby and I made the short jog up the the cache. The landscape was very orange as the sun was setting over Tuggeranong. It looked very beautiful! A hare bolted out from the grass when I got within 2 metres of it. It probably frightened me as much as I frightened it! I found the cache fairly quickly and took the Friendship Tag.

Thanks Sol de lune!
