Looks like I was the last finder of this one, all pretty squelchy underfoot but found okay nonetheless.

Owing to complaint about placement of this cache have disabled while we consider cancelling cache altogether.
It was very wet underfoot today on our way to GZ, but a relatively easy find once we were there. Signed the log and we were on our way again. TFTC

A wet and wild day somewhat hampered our caching rate as we negotiated flooded roads, frequent heavy showers and sodden ground, to the extent that during the day we abandoned our assault on four caches. The opportunity to catch up with a local caching identity kept us going. There was just no way to find a high ground route to this cache, so we returned with much heavier shoes than when we set out. Loved the way the cache container fitted in with it's surroundings.

A well camoed find after a pleasant lunch (and cache) at the RACV Resort. Wonder if my lunch fish has been remembered in this cemetery?

First find of the day. What a serene place, and also very large and roomy. Thanks for the cache know-mads.
Number 6 for the day. Great little graveyard and the dog loved the cows next door
FlyingPigSquadron has landed! Found in a slightly unlikely spot. Peaceful surrounds on a beautiful sunn day TFTC&H know-mads
No. 3 of 4 caches found on an Inverloch bike ride this morning. Nice and quiet when I arrived here and the cache was soon found. I think it would be lovely to have a final resting place somewhere like this place. Thanks know-mads.
# 2605. Caching this afternoon at Inverloch with pprass and Robmc after attending the Pre New Year Event. Found the car park and had a short walk to GZ. Didn't think it would be where we found it so kept widening the search before going back where the GPS was pointing. We then spotted the hide in its fairly obvious spot. Obvious to cachers anyhow. TFTC
Many thanks to know-mads,

We are out and about grabbing a couple of caches whilst doing the christmas family visits.

During the intervening time between the Pre-Xmas Events we went to Inverloch to do a few caches with Bettyboo3747 and Pprass.
Great spot, not one that I had been to before. We all looked everywhere but GZ as we didn't think it would be there. Eventually Pprass located the hide.
Thanks, Robmc.

Down in the area today for the events and to fill in the time I between what else do us cachers do but cache? This one was next on the radar. After a nice drive into the establishment the cache was soon found. TFTH...SL...TNLN
Found at 2:47 PM in the company of Robmc and Betty Boo #, GAFF1. We were not going to look there as we thought that it was a bit on the "far side", but after looking all over that was the only spot that wasn't checked - and so there it was.
Oddly we didn't recognise any of the names (the ones that we could read) even though we have been coming here for 35 years.
Thanks know-mads

First cache for a looooong time took a bit of looking to get my geo eye back but got it in the end. TFTC
In town for a few days so we can attend the Stony Creek races tomorrow, always lots of fun! A quick stop here this afternoon before going for a bit of a drive. Cache all good.
Found at 13:50. Quite a bit wet underfoot making our way towards this cache. Looked around a little bit before finding the cache on a pleasant sunday afternoon. Thanks
Don' usually like poking round areas like this, but after some reticence and standing back to observe we found this one.

I enjoyed having a look around this area while on the hunt for the cache. Great little spot for it too. Fits in well. Thanks know-mads for another search
Yay - found it on ANZAC Day 2012 while on a caching road trip to the Inverloch area.

Right up there as one of the trickier caches we've found! We had plenty of time while looking to pay our respects to the Pioneers. Nice quiet resting place, was almost at the stage of getting the shovel out for this great Know Mad hide = ) TFTC!
***FTF*** 7.43 am Didn't quite know what to expect from this new one from know-mads as they are usually quite tricky,we were not dissapointed great hide in a part of the area we should not forget.
Thanks to our pioneers and know-mads for the cache SL
