Hi there Zentanglers.

This is the 2nd of 2 caches we didn't find today. Twisted[:(!]

We spent quite some time here at around 4:25:00 PM, but we just couldn't locate your cache, so here's a DNF from us. Twisted

Hi there Reviewer,

RE: The cache "Diego's Troll Bridge"

I'm following up on the "Needs Maintenance" log from 30/07/2017.
There has been no action by the CO, who doesn't appear to be particularly active.
The cache appears to have been abandoned and should be archived.

Regards

Couldn't log because so waterlogged.
 
30-Jul-17
The log was drenched and the container was broken so please replace!
 
20-Apr-17
Really needs a new container, log was dry but guess it won't be for long. TFTC
 
18-Apr-17
Popped down from Westbury to do this one. For such a sleepy rural town there were a lot of mugglecars in the area! Cache is in need of repair.
 
13-Jan-17
Needs some care. Its soaked
 
12-Dec-16
Easy! Need some attention though as it is soaked through and has slugs in it!

Quick find, but as noted in previous logs, cache is broken & log is wet. Could do with some love. TFTC
 
20-Oct-16
Unable to log nice spot though
 
27-Sep-16
An absolutely beautiful spot. The smell of spring and the sound of the creek made me so happy. The cache is extremely waterlogged that I couldn't sign the log. Maybe the next person past could bring a replacement? I unfortunately didn't have anything to fix it up
 
27-Sep-16
Log drenched. Couldn't sign. Thanks.

Quick easy find on a quiet country road TFTC Smile

We're half way through our six month stay (til the end of March '16) from the Kurrajong area, (Blue Mountains) NW of Sydney, to tour in the caravan and also visit our kids and grandkids in the Huon Valley Smile On four previous visits before this visit, we were muggles, so we have a whole island of caching fun ahead of us! Smile

Came past while working in Westbury. I thought the troll caches might be easy, but forgot the distances in these country towns, and while the caches look close together on the map, they are 5+ km apart. So only grabbed this one this afternoon. Back again tomorrow. TFTC.
 
14-Jan-16
Plan for the summer. Hike, 4wd and Geocache around Tasmania. It will be a great adventure. Cheers for all the caches along the way.

Escaped home for the evening to spend a couple hours cache hunting. Easy road side find on a quiet county road.

A 10 day trip to Tasmania with a lot more caching then initially expected, but I enjoyed every minute of it! This was one of the many caches I found and enjoyed. Can't wait to get back here and do it all over again, there are so many great places in Tasmania.

Travelling around Australia, from our home in WA.

Another lovely day with sunshine!

Such an exciting day seeing Liffey Falls, The Great Lake, and Snow!!!! WooHoo. (remember in WA snow is almost non existent)

On our way home, (the long way) but time is against us but of course we said just one more!!! so this was our last. We have only been geocaching for not quite 5 years but we are self confessed geocaching addicts. We love this game!!!

GZ has changed a little to that described when cache was placed. There are no longer any blackberries ect to b careful of so unfortunately cache is now in the open. When we arrived cache was were it should b but clearly visible with the mention piece of bitumen sitting beside it. we quickly signed cache and put it back where we found it but made sure it was better covered for the next person.

Hi Samsandyjessnat
An early morning start this morning (0500hrs) leaving home at 0600hrs in order to meet Budgietas in Hobart to travel to Devonport to try and complete the Octogon series by 2y's tassies Octogon Series.
Left Hobart around 0700hrs and found a couple of caches on the way before starting the series.
The weather gods were very kind to us today; sunny, warm and fine.

Had driven past this area on many an occasion but never diverted to get the caches in this area. However, today Budge was trying to help me eclipse my highest number of finds in a day. He diverted to allow me to make three finds in this area. I thank him very much for so doing.
Got to the bridge just as night was beginning to set in, so the find had to be quick. Found the cache and signed the log at 1820hrs. Now on to Dora's Troll Bridge.

We achieved the objective of the day and I ended up with twenty-nine finds for the day, MY HIGHEST NUMBER OF FINDS IN A DAY.
Finally arrived back in Huonville at 2330hrs.

TFTC and cheers
OldSaint.

I'd actually gone a bit past this cache, without realising it was there. And as I don't travel this road very often, zipped back to collect it. I'd decided to take an alternative route between Campbelltown and Deloraine, so these three caches were bonuses. All in good order. Thanks Samsandyjessnat.

A quick find while caching between Devonport and Westbury. Plenty of water around. TFTC.
