Good hide. Interesting spot. Thank you . We left some new hides (that won't matter if they get wet). Cheers, The Kearney's.
An unexpected sunny morning saw me out caching in Traralgon. I always look for Regular and above-sized caches. Unfortunately the cache is in poor condition, very wet. I signed the log with a marker pen as Ben S. Thanks for bringing me out to Traralgon South, Nautilus7497.
This one was a bit confusing as it wasn't on the walking track, be careful if bringing geokids. Log is damp, lots of swag inside.
Mango mermaid to the rescue for this one.
Awesome sized cache good for trackables.
Thank you for the cache

This one was fun. Love the name! Buffalo briggzie piggybacked next across the road to get this one, while on his back reached down and found it. thank you
Found with my boys whilst bike riding this track. We actually signed this last year and I forgot to log!
Out on a rainy, cold day wasting time. There's some beautiful parrots here. Quick find in good condition. Tftc
Got the family up at 5.30 this morning to head out to Traralgon to do the Parkrun, Parkrun event, some breaky and some local cache. The weather was terrible today, sideways rain and wind with s chill in it. Anyway after breaky I decided would brave some of this trail alone, the fam were happy to sit in the car and play tech. Told them to come find me in an hour, and off I went. Was a nice little trail, and didn’t see a sole! Deeeeer... only one idiot out there today. Thanks for the fun.
A bit different to all the other ones on the trail, in a good way too. Just noticed why too, because it’s not actually part of the trail! TFTC!
Marshall’s Geelong found this cache today with LCASS on our Gippsland adventure,
Quick easy find. Was big though!

Thanks for the opportunity to collect so many smiles and have a pleasant walk. The road was very busy on this Easter Monday. TFTC
passing by on the way to Tarra-Bulga and couldn't resist grabbing a few of the series, most were quick easy finds and a couple took a short search to find
Camped at Gormandale after returning from Tasmania. Out for a few caches today. Third for the day, quick find, cache and contents all good, good coordinates. Took nothing, left nothing. TFTC
I felt a bit obvious standing out in the open, so I pretended to be rummaging through my satchel whenever a car went by. Never mind the fact that I was on the wrong side of the road TFTC!
This is another one of those hides that look like they could do with a hair cut. SL TFTC

Today, I headed down the highway to Traralgon to attend the Parkville event and now that the event is over, it was time to find a few more caches while I was in the area.
I had now headed South to see if I could complete the TST trail on my bike before having to head for home.
I was doing the TST trail in stages and had now returned to where I had parked the car but before I moved on I had to find this one.
I headed over to the obvious spot and the cache was soon located.

Thanks for the cache Nautilus7497,

Despite apparent lack of maintenance and deterioration of cover the cache was in good condition. You take your life into your own hands crossing the road here, even on Boxing Day..
Our morning mission is to do this trail. Sadly we left the bikes at home so its a good old foot slog. Impressed with the quality and variety of hides on this trail and glad we have enough favourites to do justice to the awesome effort put in. Thanks for delivering a great morning for us. Tfts This one gave wet feet as tne dew was still heavy on the ground, a quick find and onwards we go. Tftc
*Staying in Traralgon for a couple of nights, we have enjoyed riding the trails, placed so close to town. TST - a variety of caches, hidden in a range of locations, a great ride for a couple of seniors - 28/30!*
**Feedback to CO:** Given it's age and long standing, this one is probably due for a spring clean, not the easiest log to sign today!
Thanks Nautilus7497 for placing caches for everyone's enjoyment.

Almost missed this one.. don't know how lol. Crossing the road was an adventure. TFTC
frmen1 and I ran away from home for the weekend with the view to target this road and surrounds. We walked the 14kms (there and back), taking adequate water and food supplies with us. A great day for it. Needs a new log. There had been a huge dew drop overnight so I was soaked to my skin from the long grass. TFTC and the interesting info board.
