Found the log in the shearing shed of Mulligan's Flat and signed it. Strange it was there! TFTC.

Signed. TFTC.

Odd - I found the old log book for this cache in a plastic sleeve next to the "Fore!mer Glory (Fore! The Shear Joy Of It)" cache. What the?

As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it. Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Checked this cache and unfortunately it has gone! Looks as though someone may have been either 'living' close by or using the area as a play ground! Will replace soon.

I was in the area heading back from Bruces Well and thought I would check on this one given all the DNFs. It wasnt where I found it previously unless it has turned into a rather large agile bearded dragon. I think the owner needs to check this one.
 
29-Oct-12
Had the day off so a last minute caching trip with Agent Basil was planned around the Mulligans Flat area. We both search high and low...although mostly low I will admit. Nothing was found in keeping with the clue. Given the recent string of DNF's can the CO please confirm it is still there?
 
29-Oct-12
Neither BatGirl nor my beady eyes could spot the critter. My 0 metre coordiantes was next to an upstanding stump but we checked all! No luck !
 
10-Oct-12
Rain made us give it up but could not find anyway! How annoying!
 
01-Oct-12
Me neither, although only one pair of eyes. Didn't appear to be in any of the obvious, or even less obvious spots.
 
01-Oct-12
5 of us looked for 15 minutes but eventually gave up.
 
17-Sep-12
Really well hidden! Took me and Sturun a while but I eventually found it, TFTC Smile

Found it after a little stumbling around TFTC

TFTC easy find

With another week gone by, I was hoping for a nice walk. It ended up being quite cold, but I managed the three caches I had in mind. This was first, and I am sure I have been here before. Oh well, another cache and another smiley ! Thanks.

A nice hide for your first - the covering camo was authentic looking and we enjoyed the walk through this reserve. Interesting how much this reserve was harvested for timber, probably a long time ago judging by the way the trees have shot back in places. It would be nice to know who, when and why. Anyway, we had brought lunch and a thermos with us hoping to find a nice spot with a view. The big rock nearby the cache was perfect. Thanks Mosaic1212.

Over thsi side of town for a day of caching and this find number 6 for the day. Cache was found ok, log signed, a coin left and I was on my way.

Enjoy walking through this piece of bushland, so thanks for bringing me here again.....and thanks for the cache.

Thanks! Great location, muggles no problem but the mob of kangaroos were looking at us suspiciously Smile

Nice quick find TFTC Mosaic1212

It took a minute till I got the message of the hint! Very helpful! TFTC
 
09-Jul-12
A nice subtle hide. Swapped a turtle charm for a bean, building up my newly found bean collection. We stopped to eat our makeshift supermarket lunch here (the bakery was closed!). TFTC.
 
09-Jul-12
What a cool spot to hide your first cache. We sat down and ate some lunch looking out into the reserve before heading off further into the reserve for the rest of our run today. TFTC.
 
09-Jul-12
Found it
 
08-Jul-12
Dropped in to leave a coin and "fish" trackable while doing some caching close by.

Found on a nice cold morning. An easy find in a very peaceful area. TNLN. TFTC Mosaic1212![:o)]

A brisk, cold winter morning find. TFTC!

Thanks Mosaic1212 for a splendid wander through the forest. Nabbed on a dampish Saturday while clearing out a few in the area.

It's great to have caches in your backyard! Also, it's great to have a cache big enough to move on a TB. A nice stroll on an Autumn afternoon to find the cache, drop the Barrel TB and then for a tour of the neighbourhood. TFTC! Cool

Quick find on an early evening walk. Having introduced Mosaic1212 to geocaching and having seen what they have done in so little time, I can't help but think 'I have created a monster'.
 
12-May-12
Dropped off 'Ottifried the Owl' an interesting little TB. You pick it up, do what ever challenge is written on it and then drop it off somewhere with a new challenge that you decide.

In this case, Ottried would like to have a photo taken at Parliement House.
 
Out and about and this is one of the last trads in this area for me.
Went for a quick jog and all was good.
Thanks for the cache.

Found today had to get my caching fix so decided why not go on a 36km ride just to get this cache. I must be mad.
Found the cache quickly and had to fly back home quickly as the sharks were playing. Hooray and they won too. Missed the first 5 minutes TFTC Mosaic1212
 
29-Apr-12
Found and srated to sign the log and my pen 'died', unfortunately no spare on me and none in the cache so have signed in charcoal. Left 'eyeball' - TFTC
 
29-Apr-12
A nice ride (or rather pushing the bike) through the bush. TFTC
 
26-Apr-12
4659 + 532 = 5191. A nice walk along the edge of one of my favourite spots... !

Still unpacking from my move and needed a break - so the kids and I headed out this way. I enjoy this part of Canberra - nice to see more and more caches out here. This was a quick find once at GZ - nicely hidden as well ! Thanks Mosaic1212 !

TNLN - TFTC !!

Cheers....

Nice little walk, and a nice easy find. Can't complain about that. Nice hide. Thanks Mosaic! Looking forward to more.
 
25-Apr-12
A brisk walk up to a familar spot, Thanks.
 
22-Apr-12
Was surprised that the FTF was not logged 2 hours after publication. But not everyone does so in the field or right away for that matter. We had planned a trip with the Family to Mulligans Flats anyhow, and given the new cache we just started at the south end. Made at GZ a quick find at 3:56 with Dino Pebbles and Barney and Betty. A nicely concealed hide which I liked a lot and good views to the east. Thanks for the cache Mosaic1212
 
22-Apr-12
We were checking out other finders logs to see who claimed our pathtag when we noticed that AmethystPig dropped one of his own. We had just enough time before a scheduled movie tonight to revisit this cache at night and to discover another Pathtag...Thanks AmethystPig for the tag, it's a very cool design !

After getting back home after being out in Woden and missing out on a CC FTF I noticed this one from earlier had not been logged...mmm...ok the sun was shining and it would be nice to go for a walk. Didn't expect a *FTF* this late in the day so it was quite a surprise to find the FTF spot blank in the log book at 15:06. Always have loved this area and was a nice quick bushwalk to finish off the weekend. A nice little hide with plenty of room for swaps so I also dropped one of our new Pathtags to motivate the 2TF Smile. A nice little hide and some nice views. Thanks Mosaic1212 for the cache .

Missed this one when it came out but when no one had logged it, Just a cacher said lets go for a walk. A pleasant afternoon stroll and a quick find.

This is a great area for a cache and the afternoon sun made for a pleasant walk.

Thanks for the cache Mosaic1212

A quick find with Black Bunny after a nice afternoon stroll. SOme nice areas through here that we always enjoy.

Thanks Mosaic1212 for the cache

I was at work when this one was published so I knew there was no chance for the first - but with only the one published find by 1630, I had my eye on the STORMCATCHERS pathtag when I finally set out. A nice quick stroll once I worked out how to get to the gate, but a much longer search of GZ than anticipated due to my GPSr reading around 5m off-coord (should've gone with instinct!) to find around 4 other logs and a complete absence of tag. Signed @ 1720 and dropped one of my wattle tags for the next finder. Thanks for the cache Mosaic1212 - looking forward to seeing what else you have to offer.
