Nice view from the bridge, but failed to find the cache. Next Tazzie visit perhaps ...
Well blow me over I've finally found it!!!! Don't know how I missed it before but I did. Log book is NOW full though. TFTC
Got excited because someone found it. Went for another look and came up with nothing again. Bummer
Sneaky hide, but easy find. Nice views of the city, found just on dusk and I can see my house on the other side of town. TFTC
Ok I knew what I was looking for and even where to look be except for the great view was unable to locate this one today. Am sure we will be back up this way again.
JABs.

By chance, I managed to park as close to GZ as is possible, then I looked in exactly the right spot but completely failed to see the cache, looked everywhere else, and then found it right back where I'd started - and where my GPSr had been telling me to look the whole time. Doh! Thanks for pointing out the interesting view of Launceston that I hadn't taken note of before.
Another one on our predawn full moon raid. We park alamost at GZ and with no one around it made it easy to track down. The GPSr was spot on with teh clear sky. Found by putting our hand on it. SL and replaced.

Hi redrover 09
First time I looked for this cache I was looking for it while it wasn't there.
This time, it was a very quick find in the same place that I had looked before.
Glad that I took the time to so as it is now off my to do list and will add it to my favourites as I think the views here are great.
Found and logged the cache at 0746hrs.
TFTC, the views and the great views;
Cheers OldSaint.

Found successfully with thylacine_tim. TFTCWe had some things to do in Lonny before heading off to St Helens for Christmas however caching got in the way again. Managed to get a bit of both done and this was one we were particularly pleased to get. Thanks redrover 09
Wooshed past many times but never stopped. What an outlook. Love a mini-magnetic! Thanks Redrover.
Sol de Lune and I thought we might give this one a go, even though some others had some trouble finding it. You never know when you might find it quickly, and this time we did. Interesting views over the floodplain and to the houses beyond. Thanks Redrover 09.
Cache blends in nicely, but we were able to make a quick find. Great views over the city, but line below is a mess.
Thanks for making us stop.
Thanks for making us stop.
Thankfully this was a speedy find after finding it in the second spot searched. Felt somewhat conspicuous from the passing parade though.
Thanks for the hunt Redrover 09 and greetings from Mandurah WA

Quick find using the hint. Sunny but windy day, roads very quiet because everyone else on Lonny is watching some pagan rite on TV. Godd for cachers, we get the place to ourselves. Thanks for the cache and the great view.
Easy find with Hoterini. I'm sure the 'City View'would be nicer without all the rubbish!
Nice easy find. TFTC. Pity people can't take their rubbish that little bit further tot he tip 
I searched for a fair while for this cache but I was beaten by both its elusiveness and the dismal weather. Not much of a view of Launceston due to low cloud cover and I was stunned by the amount of rubbish dumped onto the train tracks beneath the bridge. Thanks Redrover, the bridge and view (well what I could make out) was worth the visit.
accompanied with skyejam and found it easily 
nice view but cold brrr!! thanks redrover 09 for leading us here

Found it nice and easy. Great views. We ate some some blackberries afterwards.
Thanks Redrover 09 for the cache.

Log is more than full but able to log this one out of order somewhere. Good camo job but the "O" ring is broken. Shouldn't make too much difference.
Always a good feeling to find a nano and we celebrated with some blackberries. TNLN. Thankyou for organising the cache.
Mum signed for me as she thought I'd have a hard time finding somewhere to sign.
A quick find, tougher to find somewhere on the log we could sign as it hasn't been used as economically as it could have been. We carry all sorts of spare logs but not nanos, sorry. TFTC, a good view back towards Launceston.
A quick find late in the day as I gathered the last few remaining caches available to me in town.
Nice views from over here
Thanks

An easy find after we waited for a loitering muggle to move on. Pity about all the rubbish dumped on the rail line below.
We are on an “Escaping Christmas” and “Geocaching” holiday in Tasmania. There wasn't much else to do in Launceston on New Year's Day (they didn't even have fireworks last night!?) so we went caching instead. This was the last cache for us on our trip to Tasmania. We parked close by and made a quick find. We were the first to sign the new log on the first of the first of the eleventh! TNLNSL TFTC
Found on our Sunday morning mountain bike loop. Impossible to sign the log as it is completely full.
It would have been possible to sign if a few others had signed the log in a sensible way, it is after all a nano log!

Nice view from the city up here. Had to wait out a couple of people having a chat right over GZ before a quick find. Nice hide! TFTC
Admired the view, Moneydork came up with the cache fairly easily. Cheers Gav [5971]
Visited at night, so missed the view.
The lights were nice though.

Spent more time admiring the view than looking for the cache.
Coords spot on Redrover 09, thanks

Co-ords spot on but the little devil was still difficult to see. Once spotted it is obvious but a good hide. Thanks
The sun was beginning to set as we made our way to this cache. Surprisingly it was the shadow of the cache that drew our attention. We spent the next few minutes trying to get the log out of the container without damaging it - must put a suitable tool in our "cache kit" to deal with these situations. TFTC
parked right next to this one, probably not supposed too though, a nice simple hide.
When you know what a nano looks like it makes the find much easier. Like MM I have also had a couple of looks. TNLN TFTC
What a cache. Junior Pigbag found it while i was looking for description. Had no idea it was a nano. First time for a nano, so very impressed that we found it.

Missed it by that much! Nice work GoldJ! Coords are spot on, nice RR. Quick lunchtime stop. Thanks
