logging into this cache now I see a message:
**Cache Issues:
The latest log for this cache is a DNF, please read the log before your own search**
bit late to read that now. Anyway we stopped to search (with a previous finder) but no luck.
thanks anyway razok

Searched the area, but sadly a DNF for us here today. [8)] Hopefully we were just cache blind again.

After finding a nearby cache on the university campus, walked over to attempt this cache. Unfortunately despite my best efforts, this cache eluded me. I was accompanied by Magertom who had found it last year and he too struggled. Weren't sure how to make use of the clue. Hoping we were having a bad caching day and hasn't been muggled.

Nice to finally know why that bridge is there I never knew until doing this geocache. TFTC
This one took a while, and I must admit that the extra hint was lost on me. Hopefully cache was in its intended spot or perhaps GPS was not returning accurate reading/s @ 1020hrs.
17th find, so still learning. Maybe one day I'll work out what the hint meant.

Found it, thank you for the explanation as to why this was built. It makes a lot of sense I have often wondered why it was built and who it was supposed to service. Isn't smart though build the bridge before you build or check the capability of the dock.TFTC
Went after this cache in the evening with my partner - the view from the bridge was beautiful! Thank you to creator for drawing our attention to something usually passed by. Log was choc a block full!
Up the North of the state for Mum's friends 80th. While she is partying, thought it was a good chance to grab some northern caches.
A quick search once we arrived located GZ and found it in good condition. The bag containing the log could do with replacing, signed log, took nothing.
No sign of the TB that was left a couple of weeks ago, previous logger must have removed and not logged. As per older logs, the others haven't been there for quite some time.
TFTC razork!

A nice short stroll down from the UTAS campus to nab this one - found with Genii. Great hide - TFTC!
Brilliantly found by Loz, however, a little hesitant in reaching to return it to its hide ..!!
As myself, budgie and Old Saint were starting to work our way round the area to grab the caches they has missed in the passed they pulled over so I could grab this one since it was only a short walk and after a minute searching I looked at the right angle and spotted the cache, soon signed and replaced as found.
Thanks for the cache.

My first cache. Took a little while to find, and even longer to wait until there were no muggles. I signed the book, took the 7 of hearts playing card and left a flamingo Thank you!
Very sneaky lol found with friends, no own so could not sign log book. Took Captain Morgan key chain and left rainbow eraser
Easy find, collected in between cars as they pass. Aways wondered about this bridge and where it ended. TFTC
Find #50 for me!
Second time looking for this one, but found quite quickly thanks to a helpful hint from choppersrule & co! Don't know how we didn't spot it before!

We flew to The Apple Isle this afternoon for our holiday.
While some of the family went to the shops for supplies, geoson and I ventured out for our first Tassie geocache.
As we approached the footbridge we saw a muggle drawing the view. Luckily the GZ was on the other side of the bridge... We had the treasure in hand quickly with good coords.
Thanks for the fun razork!

Found after coming back from our shack for the long weekend. Parked where the description says to and walked across without looking down! Didn't have my GPS but remembered where google earth pointed me. TFTC find #151
Perhaps at low tide you can catch some bird life on the mudflats? If you've come this far, make sure you go out to georgetown and low head while you're at it.
Finally worked out how to log a trackable drop... via the new cache itself rather than on the trackables own page.... happy travels familytag...

Tried to find this one but no luck. Wondering if it got removed when the police searched this area for the missing utas student.
Yay.... finally I got the chance to return to the spot where I was introduced to this very addictive new hobby of mine. TNSL. TFTC★
Came up from Hobart to attend the 2013 State RoboCup Challenge next day. Searched a while and eventually found it. This bridge looks like its been here some time yet really goes to nowhere. tnln tftc razork. No geocoin spotted.
Yay! My first find in Australia! Just after a week of having arrived in Launceston, I went onto a rainy walk around Campus. I had to look around twice though... Very clever hide!
First cache in the Southern hemisphere for a Mexican Geocacher!

Having studied at the University near here, I've driven past this thing so many times, wondering why the heck it was there.
Now I've geocached on it and walked over it, which I reckon is more than most people.
Thanks for the cache

A nice easy find late at night wouldn't recommend doing it when the traffic is busy though
Our second day in Tasmania. We had enough time to go geocaching before dinner was served. So, we decided to walk to this footbridge. And, indeed, it leads to....... nowhere! But we found the cache; number 2 in Tasmania! TFTC.

Went back today with geocadet who had did it a year ago with geodad. Cool hide. TFTC
Had a look today but there lots of men on the road play construction workers with their toys. Think they were having a go at me for walking back and forth and up and down the stairs. Will go back on weekend I think.
Got around to this one at last. Good hide. Tftc

This one had been bugging me for a while - I finally made it here today and took a bit of finding but soon had it in hand. TFTC
Just about to finish our Tasmanian holiday and decided to spend these days in Launceston gathering a few caches. Found quickly after using our geosenses.

What a weird place! I guess the view helps to justify the bridge a little spent a bit of time searching, but trusty geo-intuition paid off. TFTC! Took blue monkey, left rubber lego SL )
On the way out of town I had to grab this one. It truly is a footbridge to nowhere. You can't get down to the water's edge even! Thanks for showing me this odd spot!
