Found on a rainy day with Dr Kov. Nice big cache if you have larger swaps.

Disappointed I didn't see any more of the ginormous clovers today, or any trolls for that matter. I did feel like one searching for the cache though, so I guess that counts! TFTC!

Wooohoo love it! Trolls love this hiding spot
 
08-Feb-20
A fantastic spot for a regular. The longest part was waiting for some nearby muggles to leave so I could embrace my inner troll. There seems I be a fair bit of work going into this park to make it even nicer, it’s great to see. I loved the rusted metal look of his bridge, they’re really going for it. Next they need to start killing the willows and replacing them with natives. A lovely walk around here, thanks for bringing me down!

Canberra Day 4: Mount Pleasant - Commonwealth Park - Kingston - Parliament - Acton Peninsula
Today’s route was extremely circuitous, given that I was trying to clear up some outstanding Lab caches. So, I was sent Cycling up and down the lengths up Lake Burley Griffin while picking up whatever other caches that happened to available along the way. The views were good, though slightly marred by the haze that descended on the city today. But, a decent haul of 41 finds was had, before retiring at the end of a warmish day.

This is the specific log for this cache:
Quick layover here to pay the toll... sorry, the troll a visit. The geotrail seem to indicate one side, but it was on the other. What luck, ah well. Thanks for the nice find in the wetlands!
 
04-Dec-19
Pleasant spot. No trolls today. Very peaceful after work. Tftc.
 
01-Dec-19
Headed into Canberra with fitzy_1965 for the Annual Secret Santa event but arrived a bit too early.....oh well, time for a few caches before the main event.

Had parked nearby and collected Hidey Hole so completed the loop and picked up this one along the way. Nice easy find here today.

Arriving by bike,
I found that like,
me, others were doing the same [:o]

So I had to wait,
the trolls took the bait,
and I found the cache during a break Big Grin

"Did that make sense ??" [:i]
No trolls were harmed in the finding of this cache Big Grin

Cache 4905 on 23 Mar 2019.

Yay! The weekend means that I don’t have to find park and grab caches - it is good to go that extra mile for a better cache, we Bobl27 and went quite a few extra miles today! I wanted 9 caches today but more than that I wanted Tankengine caches. With a 300 finds pathtag held out tantalisingly in from of me, I have work to day. So from the 9 caches today, 8 of them were TE ones! It ended up being a longer morning than anticipated, but glad to have some of these crossed off my list!

This cache: the one non-TE cache for the day. We were scarcely going to leave it all by itself were we! Quick find under our feet. A passer by knowingly asked if we had found treasure!

Thanks Geo_Lithofacies for the cache and the fun!

It’s a lovely and tranquil spot with astounding views of birds and other wildlife along the track. A nice bridge next to a glassy brown wetland was the perfect spot for a well hidden cache. Thank you!
 
10-Feb-19
Nice quick find on a nice day.
 
07-Feb-19
So after a pub lunch in Kingston, I had a free afternoon to myself & decided to grab some caches. I wish I'd planned it, as by the end I was sunburnt & dehydrated, but it was a lot of fun.

This was a quick find where you'd expect, given the name TFTC!

Found on a sunday evening walk. It was fortunately not too busy around here! TFTC.

Wonderful place. I have paddled around the wetlands but haven't been on this side on land. Isn't caching fantastic. Thanks Geo_Lithofacies
