5 More Nanos #2 Victoria Park East, Western Australia, Australia
By Mickeydv on 28-Jul-10. Waypoint GC2CEG6

found under another name....tftc

We found this nano after feeling for it. It was a difficult find TFTC

Gone....

I had attempted caches throughout this area back when my addiction to geocaching began. And I had reported DNF for a few. So I returned with experience to attempt....according to my profile I hadnt done this one, but as i drove in to the carpark I realise I had done it,and it was one of my first nano finds. So i thought id check the date on the log - and bam smack it aint there. Its "base attachment" was still in situ - but no nano case. I searched around incase it fell with no luck......bugger. So im logging a find from ages ago but I dont know the date and unfortunately it will now need maintenance. It is a tricky find tho so good placement Mickeydv and thanks

see past log - nano MIA

Nice little hide in a pretty busy spot. TFTH.

Quick find on my first circumnavigation of the object at GZ
TFTC

Slowly ticking these off. I always find your nano's a challenge Mick. Just 1,3 and 7 to go now. SL TFTC

So we hunted for this for like 20minutes but all we found was this screw about 2m up the tree. Was the cache attached to this at some point as has fallen off? Or did we just not find it.

finally found it after our 3rd visit wow this one had us stumped but we found it

tftc

Not our first nano find -- but compared to this the others were HUGE!! Is there such a thing as a nanonano (or micronano?)Looked for about 45 minutes after microteen's bball game...much to the angst of the geokids who just wanted to go home. Eventually realise that helping me was the only way they were going to get out of there. GPS very frustrating but looked where I thought it should me without success. Eagle eyes and slightly taller teen picked it up in about 5 minutes but the kids didn't think it could be a cache -- even when youngest daughter accidentally opened it while fiddling and found the log (it's just a bit of paper, there's nowhere to write on it! OK there was but it's full. OK, there's still space but you couldn't possibly fit anything on it. OK how are you going to get it rolled up, fitted back in and closed?) The latter was a good question but finally succeeded. Thanks muchly -- loved getting one over the sceptical teens.

Found at 9pm with no real torch! Had to read the old logs for a hint though TFTC!

Found with Devar after having dinner nearby. TY. <3

Day 40... one of a few....

Bad weather, bad bad weather....

Though does help with caches like this one as there was no muggle factor.

Didnt know I had inspired anyone!!! Thanks I feel honoured....

Co-ord's were spot on, tricky hide!

TFTC

Nice easy find, not many muggles today. TFTC

Out and about with FelixII. No muggles in car park making for an easy find and retrieval by Mr Felix.

Out caching with Coast'n Along trying to find 5 more caches to finally reach 1000. The boys were onto this one pretty quickly today. TFTC Mickeydv

Woo!!! Found it

A quick and easy one for me, and I was very happy to take that on this rainy morning. A pinch and a punch for the first day of the new financial year!

Thanks for the cache Mickey!

Was just able to get this one, mr TA's sharp eyes paid off! Quite a quick find once the muggles vacated!

This one took me a while, although there were not too many muggles around. had to wait couple of times to suspend the search and then the return of the cache. It took me a while to find this, maybe 15 mins all up. nice place to hide it, TFTC Mickeydv.

Signed log as KB in the last spot on the log. there's always the other side of the scroll though for the next cachers.

TFTC!

Very pleased to find this so quickly. We looked carefully and there it was!

Very happy to find this one reasonably quickly actually... I just stood and observed... spotted it and retrieved it. No more than 5 min. TFTC

A very sneaky hide. Thankfully the coords were spot on and the retrieval was a lot smoother than #3. TFTC.

nearly had to call for backup on this one but thanks to the cunning eyes of TeamRock, had this one in hand after only just a little while

TFTH

Found with Italian Geostallion after an enjoyable lawn bowls work function, mmmm another sneaky one SL TFTH

A very clever hide a great way to extend the variety of ways to hide nanos.
This was my last in your series and I have enjoyed them all.
Thanks Mickeydv

Bloody nanos. Spawn of Satan. Burn down the nano factory and exterminate anyone who sells nanos.

But, I have to admit this was a novel hide that I only managed to find after something unusual caught my eye.

Thanks for the cache Mickeydv.

Found it went there 2 times today nice hide thanks for the hunt

When I first started looking for this series, I made it my goal to be the first to find all five, as some had already found some but not all. I cannot believe the one closest to home was the last to find. I must of been here about 5 or 6 time looking, Always the muggles, so many muggles. After the geomissus bumped into Mickeydv, and he gave us a hint, and a serious head slap, we finally found it. A great series, thanks Mickeydv(ious)!

Found after what could be described as a short search for a nano. Think out side the box. Great hide. Well done

Easy find today. It's all relative though. TFTC.

Was a bit tricky as gps was all over the place with the trees. Was just about to leave when we decided to walk towards the GZ from a different angle when geohubby spotted it above geowifes head! TFTC

Took me a few minutes to find this one between all the muggle activity. But once they had left, it was easily spotted. TFTC

Hrmmmmm... Annoyed.. Ha ha TFTH..

Well placed Nano Cache.
Cheers.

I went for yum cha breakfast in Vic Park with some friends, and decided to finally have a go at this one on the way out. In the first place I looked, I moved some bark and stirred up an ants nest underneath. Stepping back I checked the map and figured that my GPS was probably a little out. Found within a couple of minutes from there as it was easily spotted. TFTC!

I started looking in the obvious spot while Mrs AusTrackers put her hand on the cache in the first place she looked, then calmly announced "here it is". Thanks Mickeydv.

Well hidden cache complete with heel clicking happiness with the eventual find. TFTH

After finding 15 caches today, can't really remember the location of this one - only that we didn't find it!

Was busy with muggles and couldn't find it

struggled for awhile before getting a hint from mickeydv, tftc

Quite a few spider webs. It was nearly dark when we tried this so couldn't give it the best shot.
No doubt it's there somewhere.

Edit: accidentally marked as "found"

This cache was our first stop for the day in Perth. Unfortunately, wot and I were unable to locate it
We looked high and low between muggles visiting the area, but ended up giving up after coming up empty handed.
Shall try again another day..

I sure am a glutton for punishment - trying to find yet another nano!!

No joy! No joy! The coast was clear and the only thing we came across was a huge spider ......................

*FTF* 15:15

After a morning in Rockingham and then lunch at home I noticed this series of caches had been published after I had left this morning so I ambled over to try and find them.

Perhaps I came to GZ at just the right angle but I found the cache immediately so didn't have to search for it. Of the ones I have done so far this would be the best of them.
Someone else can try for a blank log book at the other two I haven't done.

Thanks for the cache.
