Came to Inverloch from Melbourne for caching day. Lovely day and also nice beach to walk. I came here to search for bit and didn't realised the comments were shown most of DNF's so i leave it to owner to check. Will come back another time when it back on.
Did not find but think it may need maintenance. Looked through the photos and think we found something that might be missing. Owner needs to check.
Our 2.5 hour drive from Sale to Phillip Island had stretched to 6 hours so far. We only stopped for about 10 caches so that wasn't the reason. We did make lots of other stops at playground and toilets, not no mention the odd coffee shop.
So we chose one cache in town. This one. As we arrived in the street outside GZ we saw two guys right there. One had a phone out so we figured them for geocachers. They were gone by the time we found a way in to the area.
We tried to pull and twist all sorts of bits with no luck. Eventually one thing did move and gave way to a clean replacement logsheet. I guess they were not geocachers after all.
Thanks know-mads for a clever cache.

We did look for this one when the carnival was on in December which made it impossible to find. We initially suspected the hiding spot but we overlooked it. Fortunately we worked it out fairly quickly. Definitely earns a favourite. Tftc gonefishin
TFTC,
Out on the observation trial today and finding a few caches at the locations visited. Very clever, a favorite given.
This is a part of our adventure trip that takes us to the National Riley Rally on Philip Island, Bush walking at the Grampians that we missed last trip because of fires, a 50th with a friend on the Murray River and the Red Center Experience GC6825Z before returning home with skibum1 from America via Broken Hill, Lightning Ridge, Killcoy and Armidale.
Visited a group of trackables that will be left at the Alice Springs Event .

In Phillip Island with the Riley Rally out today on an observation trial, picking up a few caches to remember the Rally and the Island. Our lunch spot, took a while to locate great hide. thanks to know-mads
Sick of staying at home so the ground daughter 3 ye old and I decided to have a cache day in Inverloch. We took a complete wrong turn and ended up on some very dodgy roads going through towns I'd never heard of. But we made it here in good time. We have 4 hours and 15 cache on the list.

Point from us. This was very clever!!

We're here for the Jazz Festival and had to grab a cache as a souvenir. Nice easy find and we love the ones which can be seen from a distance. TFTC
We made our way over to this cache hoping to get in before school was out. I actually walked right up to this one, seeing as there was not many other places avaliable. Good hide though.

That was a clever one. Here with HennyGeo on holidays in fascinating Australia from Vancouver Island Canada TFTC
In the area for work and in such a pleasant day i couldn't resist collecting a few local caches. With a lot of construction machinery and random bunches of muggles around i was a bit unsure I would be able to collect any in this reserve today but as I approached gz I was happy that the only group of ppl I could see were nearby skateboarders doing their thing. Still it was lucky the cache was the first thing I put my hand on so i had no reason to draw attention to myself. Clever container! Thanks for the cache!
[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.
I like it
Another one off the list

I like it Another one off the list TNLNSL TFTC/TFTH/TFBUH Know-Mads [^]Set off today to grab some local caches and this was one we found before we hooked up the geovan and headed to Melbourne to catch the boat home. A cleverly disguised hide. Deserves a favourite. TFTC
Quick find while watching footy. Interesting cache.
Thanks for the cache

Nice quick find but a very clever cache, I like it! Found with Lilmissgeo. TFTC!
We loved the effort that went into this one not being our first of this kind so the find was an easier one tftc with geodude#74
Our second visit because there were just too many muggles around earlier. We were ready to leave Inverloch for the day and decided to swing by and check out the muggle situation. Thankfully, pretty deserted at this time of day. Even although we were expecting something quite tricky it took us some time to work this one out. Wow! Impressive camo! Geoson pointed out a likely feature, which Mrs Glish dismissed. He was very miffed when it turned out to be correct... So points to geoson for finding this one! So glad we did the revisit. Favourite point from us. TFTC.
Second visit, late at night after dinner at the Inlet Hotel found it free of muggles so was able to sign it this time.
Spotted the cache, but too many muggles around to be able to extract log and sign it.
A crafty hide. Had to make a swift grab with kids all around. Thankfully they were all interested in the footy and not me. Even got a kick in myself on the way out. Lol.
Suscoe was up and at it bright and early today as the weather forecast was pretty unpleasant for caching.
It did hit 41 degrees in the car throughout the day.
The day started out with clear skies at times but as the day progressed some cloud appeared from the west.
The change arrived around 5 pm and it was certainly welcome.
This was the 20th find of the day.
We continued caching throughout the day with a short break for lunch.
Well this was a quick find, thank goodness as we were roasting.
All done here and off we went.

Second attempt came when carnival on and couldn't get to it! Read through people's logs and found the clue I needed log found in good condition
Quick park and grab late in the day. No muggles around made it easy to get once found. Sneaky hide!
That is a clever hide. I looked at it and diminished it . Just to come back to it and well there it was TFTC

Was hoping to make this cache number 100 but some nosey carnival workers forced me to move along without time for a search
On a road trip while over for the Melbourne Mega.
Thanks for adding to the enjoyment of this trip.

A quick park and grab of this clever hide. Stealth was required, as the sunshine plus a public holiday had brought lots of muggles out. SL tftc
So annoying how long it took me to find this cache. HINT lower than you think.
You'll thank me later

That was fun!
I always worry that I'm touching something I shouldn't with these kind of things. Thanks for the find!

Mum and I are up on a daytime, and had to stop and so a cache. We both admired this cache, tyvm. The lined side of the log was full, so I started on the other side xo
According to reliable witness, pole with cache has been removed. Needs checking.
Geomum found this one. The muggle factor was high but no one thought we were crazy. Thanks. Silkyie
