Did some puzzle solving lately so thought wed head over this way today & do some caching in the area. Nice short walk in. TFTC
I had sold this a while ago and even came looking for it last year I think. I remember last time my gps was out about 15m but today it lead me straight to GZ. Great puzzle and thanks for the fun Geogetters.
Out today trying to knock off some solved puzzlers. I thought this was gonna be a DNF but the young fella spotted this one & he was so happy! TFTC!
I solved the puzzle for this one during night shift quite some time ago but somehow never got around to retrieving the cache itself. A beautiful sunny afternoon & MelloJnr's constant badgering to do some caching seemed like a great excuse to head across town. After a quick walk along the path & a quick look at the options, MelloJnr was initially stumped as to where it could be, but after reminding her what size we were looking for, she quickly spotted the likely place & had the cache in hand.
The cache crawl was on and this year apart from the Friday night dinner which I couldn't make it to I will be doing the whole crawl. Eventually the weather got better later in the day.This I had solved for when I was in the area next and after a short stroll the cache was found safe and sound.Thanks Geogetters for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.
I used to love twister. Still liked this game more!!A fun find on the The Great Victorian Cache Crawl - a cache and event filled weekend!!Thanks Geogetters and clear skies from TeamAstro.

Always good at this game in my younger years not sure if they make a Seniors version!!!Enjoying a weekend on the Great Victorian cache Crawl. My second one of hopefully many more. Thanks Geogetters for showcasing this area and contributing to this great game for myself and others to enjoy. Happy trails!
Time to get away for the weekend, so a weekend trip to Bendigo (& St Arnaud) was organised with Geoturtle37.A game I played many times when I was 40 years younger. Not so easy to bend these days. Thanks for bringing us here by placing this cache, Geogetters ~~
Just as well OHC was on the ball as the hide had been located just not identified. Thanks for the stroll and the placing of this cache.
We have set off on our annual winter escape but with no real plans other than a set of ideas.Our first stop is Bendigo, a place we haven't visited for any length of time in the past. There appears to be much to see and a good variety of caches to keep us entertained.We met up with our caching buddies Rebel Acts and Omegaman for a few days as well which added to the laughs and fun.Caches logged as RASPOM or SKI Pair if they had already found them.This is one of the caches we have found to date.Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache Geogetters.**SKI Pair****
DNF today however I did find a bong at GZ. Maybe the stingers have taken the cache cause I couldnt find it.
After a previous DNF here I managed to turn that frown into a smiley today. However the log books were damp and black with mould. Needs attention. TFTC and the fun puzzle.
Solved this months ago, just never got around to finding it!!!
Quick easy find - TFTC
FYI- the log book is soaked and pretty much impossible to sign, needs replacing

This one led us on a merry case until the GPS settled down, then finally found with joybell53 TFTC
With my GPS playing twister on me at GZ it took me a moment or two to hone in on the cache. Eventually it was in my left hand. TFTC

Back in Bendigo with Rebel Acts for a few days of caching fun, It's great to see so many new caches around town.
The weather wasn't the kindest ,sun was absolutely baking but still had a great day of caching.
Cheers for the cache.

I had been thinking about a trip to Bendigo for over a month so that I could find My centroid cache and with an event in town this weekend plans were made to do a few days caching with My good mate Omegaman1971.There are always plenty of laughs while we are turning caches into smiles.
This is one of the caches found today. This had been in the solve pile for some time, always good to turn a puzzle into a smile.

**In Bendigo for the night - My Grandsons birthday tomorrow**
Decided to head out after dinner and grab a few caches. Gotta love daylight savings Managed to solve to puzzle without any problems and made the find in the same way.
The thing I love about caching is the interesting stories, the extra interest and attention you take when traveling, the sight-seeing, the history, the interests of the individual CO’s, *the fantastic photo opportunities* and sometimes finding places that even some locals don’t know about. I, like most cachers, look for more that a mint tin or a container under a bush. I appreciate the time that most CO’s take to construct a cache and write up a comprehensive listing and to create an interesting cache. **I love traveling this big land of ours.** I love taking the roads less traveled. I love the diversity of the land, the different scenes in the different seasons, the fresh air, the open plains, the lofty vistas and the magnificent waters. I even enjoy the longer scenic walks although I'm not as young and as fit as I used to be. I love the different coffee shops I find. I enjoy the times I cache with others but I usually cache on my own.
Thank you Geogetters for highlighting this area and for adding this cache to my real-life treasure hunt. Appreciate your efforts.

Bingo - perfect zeroing today. Here in Bendigo for a flying visit from higher altitudes and a totally different habitat. Out and about on trusty treadles, aka my MTB exploring and chasing a few you know what. TFTC and the fun
Cache #320
Didn't feel like going caching today but because I am now deep into a daily streak, I knew I had to.
In the first spot I looked, I found a home made device to smoke a could-be legalised plant. Needless to say, the second search yielded better results. TFTC

Tftc, first ever mystery found (but not first solved). Nice and easy hide, even if first suspected hiding spot was wrong. Found with lilbassgirl.
Nice quick find for us today! Had this one solved for a while now. Finally decided to grab them

What a cracking morning! I had solved this puzzle many, many moons ago. Today it was a stunning walk in the early morning and a quick find at GZ. Thanks Geogetters.
Found with catnap777 on our weekend away hitting up Bendigo for a bunch of these "Anyone for...." mysteries that we had both enjoyed solving at home in quiet times together. [^]
The trick to solving this puzzle is to set up Twister over a waterbed bladder, squirt it all down with baby oil, get naked and play the game with your partner after dipping each hand and foot in separate pots of a different coloured paint. [^]
The above method does not guarantee a set of coords first try, but you are assured a very memorable evening.
For best results we recommend laminating the arrow board and using someone else's house.
TFTC Geogetters. Great puzzle.

Firstly, may I say that my partner dalerious and I did not employ the method he mentioned in his log, as we would never have had the time to solve the puzzle. He has a wonderful imagination. Dalerious and I had great pleasure in working through these very clever puzzles We managed to set up a weekend away to get cracking on signing our names in each log. Some of the logs were too wet to sign though which is unfortunate, but that didn't deter us from enjoying the variety of areas looking for each hide Thank you Geogetters for providing a ripper set of Mysteries [:o]
Great mystery. Would have liked to do more of them while in Bendigo but off home today to Wangaratta. TFTC. Luckily we found it quickly with rain coming.
Found on a lil' weekend jaunt while up in Bendigo for placement.
Coords were spot on - TFTC

Solved this one a while ago but sort haven’t been up here to make the find since. Well, until today!! Tftc
This one was in our sights on our day here. Kenare kenbryl and immy headed here after we solved the mystery ages ago. Tftc
In the area today with Glanville Girls cleaning up a few solved mystery's. Thanks for placing and maintaining for our enjoyment.
Out caching in the area today with Wozzle 68 picking up the remainder of the puzzles in this series that had been solved many years ago. A short stroll in to this one and another quick find with spot on coords.
Out for a drive today with Bogonghazy. A couple of quick finds for the day, getting close to my first 200 finds.
Thank you Goegetters for placing the geocache.

A day trip to Bendigo with Geodog Penny on board, to wander around finding caches here and there and this is 13 of 16 that we found for the day.
We managed to do a few of the games puzzles plus a few others in between. We started in the area behind Lansell Plaza and finished out at White Hills.
We enjoyed our day wandering around seeing parts of Bendigo we have never seen before.
Another quick and easy find for the day.

In Bendigo for a few days holidays, so I tried to solve a few puzzles beforehand that we could collect whilst here. I remember playing Twister, the laughs, the falling down. This puzzle was a little easier to work out than actually playing it.
Luckily it was a nice quick find for us today.
Thank you Geogetters for the memories and the cache.

Thanks to the help of the kendalclan man, we worked out a few puzzles last night with the intention of heading out after work today! TFTC
Been watching the puzzles for a few years and finally tackled them due to isolation but just had to wait for the restrictions to lift and some nice weather. With the public holiday, the kids back to school tomorrow and the sun shining, we thought we would get out for some family time and vitamin D. Had a little fun in the 4x4 and exploring. TFTC
I was up for a game
Though playing it with only one person was rather easy
So I had soon spun enough moves to work out where the cache was hidden.
Today as I twisted through the streets of Bendigo,
I stopped to unwind with a short stroll through this patch of bushland.
A noice easy find [^]

My second mystery for the day that I failed at. Puzzle solved a while back and was hoping to convert it to a find today. Maybe next time I’m in town
Brisal5 spotted this one less than 50cm from where I had just looked. Log book is full and couple use a replacement.
Thanks for the cache Geogetters.

Day 9 of our epic trek to the St Arnaud Mega via Geelong and return via wherever the caches are.
The constant was my travel companion for the entire trip, - Anymules but we were joined by other cachers in our travels.
With the Mega event finished we continued caching around Bendigo where we were based for a few days. The GPS died yesterday so let's try some phone caching.
Took some searching. Anymules looked six inches to the left of where I found it a short time later.
Thanks for the cache.

On our way to attend The St Arnaud Event 2019, stopped in Bendigo for the night.
With an early start to the day, we managed to pick up 37 caches, before lunch.
We have solved quite a few of these caches, and will pick up the odd one on each visit to town.
Many thanks for placing this cache, Geogetters, for us and others to find.

Had solved this cache during the past week, up early this morning for a quick cache hunt. Parked up and upon nearing gz wasn’t sure I had inputted the right coords! Walked around in circles for a while before having a better look and I soon had the cache in hand! Yay!! Thanks for the puzzle and the cache everything was in good order!
Found this time. Nearly 3 years since an unpleasent DNF. Cache returned from the other dimension where it had been hiding.
Found on a beautiful Autumn day while holidaying in Bendigo. Not too many places to hide something here. Last place I looked (obviously) TFTC
Found with Kirs3 on a great day caching!!
Caching in the dark - owl looking !!

Found this one while out and about with locus cache. She had previously found it and gave me a few hints as i eas going too fast for my own good here and soon my name was in the logbook.
I enjoyed many contortions of myself and others as we whiled away many an afternoon or evening playing this game while I was growing up. I remember a few games on Christmas Day.

Found with FUF009 while caching in the area. A difficult find. Solved the puzzle a while ago and have had it in my phone for a while. I also forgot to log it! Tftc
Worked this out a couple of months back, but unable to check co ords. Have it a try today, and after searching around found it hidden nicely, well camouflaged with spider webs!

Stopped to log this find while exploring Bendigo today. It was a hot day but the wind made things manageable. Thanks for your contribution to my great afternoon.
Geofamily trip to Victoria... Cool!
Mrs Moneydork, Moneydork, sushilord and I left Friday morning for a 4 day jaunt over the border to find a cache or two
Two nights in Wangaratta and then a night in Bendigo left me with 10 DNFs and 205 cache finds one of which was a FTF
Day 4 was travelling from Bendigo to Berri then home and with 2 DNFs and 21 finds, it was another good day
Twister
So was making a find here and then hearing that another SA geocacher has been here a few times and not found it
Thankfully I put my hands on the cache just as the other two were going to call it quits! [^]
If only they played Twister, they might have seen it hiding

Found with my family - becca85, boo09 & chan02. Sorry for the very tardy logging. TFTC
Found while in Bendigo with the family - Muggle Dad, becca85, neisha07 & chan02. A nice quick find by Mum who had solved the puzzle ages ago. TFTC
With a souvenir available for a Puzzle find this weekend, I hassled Muggle husband for a quick stop while in Bendigo for the arvo. I had this one pre-solved from a while back and as it was not too far out of our way, it quickly became our candidate. Off we went with boo09, chan02 & neisha07 in tow.
I quickly zoned in on a likely GZ but no container appeared. We stretched out, still no luck. With limited time left before we had to head home, I made a PAF call which put me back to my initial spot and with some further groping, a container appeared. Unsure if it was human intervention or the recent rain but this one was all but fully buried.

Clever spot. Looked there immediately and missed it. Then searched for 20 minutes with mum until I returned to initial spot and felt like a fool.
Epic fail you pwned us n00bs... You are only as good as your next find. Might be gone. There was a pile of rocks at GZ and nothing in the rocks.
Solved the puzzle last week in preparation for a trip to Bendigo Si I would have some puzzle caches to find while husband busy at Bendigo hospital. Bit wary of moving things in scrub like this as to acity girl it seemed like a good place to come across a snake. Found cache without meeting any slithery friends. Tftc
Today the geokids (aged 4 & 6) and myself headed to Bendigo to collect some mysteries caches for a challenge in Melbourne. I spent that last week solving as many as I could (mainly focusing on the games series as they were easier and more at my level - lol). Another quick grab here and we were soon off again. Many thanks
Fun little puzzle to do and enjoyed being taken to this spot with a great view over Bendigo for a walk before starting work on this visit to town. TFTC
While up in Bendigo for the "2 Months to Mega" event we caught up with fellow cachers The Tritonz and dbelco and cached our way around the area until it was time to head back to Geelong.
This game brings back plenty of memories of tears of laughter when getting tangled up and falling to the ground but luckily this twister was a lot easier to play.
Thanks Geogetters for the cache and this fun series.

GPS showed it 16 metres away from where we found it. We had given up and were walking away when we saw something really out of place. Upon investigation we saw a typical hide. TFTC
Of this series, this is the only game neither of us has ever owned or played. Though we do recall hearing some rather funny stories of drunken parties with bodies entwined leading to - well you can probably guess. Loved this little series Geogetters, particularly as it gave us the opportunity for a few short strolls in the local bushland. So different to what we get in our rather wetter home state.
Gorgeous day for a quick walk in the park. Signed log. All good with the cache. Thanks for another one in the puzzle series.
We decided to make this one the last one for the day, we pulled up near GZ & walked to the coordinates we got from the puzzle, nice little hiding spot, TFTC
The second of this series I hunted today - another I had solved ages ago. Parked in a spot not too far from GZ and walked to GZ. Started the hunt checking a few places then I saw another potential hide and just as I moved around to look saw the cache just sitting in the open. Signed and I hid it where it looked like it was meant to go. Thanks to Geogetters for this one.
Out caching with emthegem. Solved the puzzle then easy find for the final cache. Tftc.
Went in for the find...GPS said it had to be here, but no way - to conspicuous...wait...there it is! Cheeky hide - TFTC!
Replaced container, you are now looking for a micro sized container, hopefully the muggles won't find this one
We solved this one quite some time ago,
The idea that yesterday was puzzle day gave us the push we needed to find the cache its self.
After looking around for awhile I started to find parts of a clip lock container (See photos for the parts I found)
Sadly I was not able to find the log itself
I picked up as many pieces of the container as I could find before leaving,
I hope this gets up and running again soon as it is a great puzzle and I would love to finish it off one day soon
