TFTC Cruiser95

Out with one half of TT016 & GD's grabbing a few caches while the other half of TT016 is studying...
A relatively quick find...the soggy mush of a log book has now been replaced...
TFTC Cruiser95

Found easily. The log book is a soggy mess and we had no replacement. Tftc

Found easily enough although log needs replacing. We didn’t have a spare with us. Great area for a cache. Tftc

School holidays have started and that means time for a road trip. Sydney to Mt Gambier via the Little Desert, then back home via the Great Ocean Road, Melbourne and the coast back to Sydney. Caves, rock climbing, cache and lots of photos along the way. Cheers to all the cache owners who placed them along my route. All the ones we found were in good condition unless i have made a note.

Tricky little find. Tfth

We were visiting Dad (Super Pop as the great grandkids call him) and we decided to cross the border and have a days caching in Mt Gambier.

This was to be the last for the day as the rain had really set in now. We headed off to a likely location and just started searching when Diane looked at the GPS and found out that we were still a long way from gz. It just shows that you shouldn't assume anything but I know we will continue to do so. Once at the correct gz the cache was spotted fairly quickly and not too long after we were adding our names to the log.

Thanks Cruiser95 for showing us this interesting site.

the windy bit was right. Found on the return from Portland. Found the cache after 5 mins or so. Gps wouldn't settle on gz.

*12/3/17, Found @ 12:08 pm, Find # 6448.*

I was now making my way to a cache that was on my must do list but as I was going passed this one I stopped for a look.
A quick return to Victoria for this one, once at GZ, I was able to make a quick find.

**Thanks to Cruiser95 for placing this cache.**

Found 1115. Found while on a week long stop over in Mount Gambier and on our way to the caves. A quick find. TFTC.

Travelling on holiday with Purrfect Di, son Alex, geoson Sebastbat and Jack the monkey.
Plenty of wind and water lately.
Found in the last place we looked
TFTC Cruiser95

Our last day at Mount Gambier, before heading east, to catch up with muggle friends.
After lunch, we drove south to Nelson for some sightseeing and caching.
Lots of nice country to drive through, and we found a good variety of hides.

Cache was located after a short search, signed and replaced as found.
Many thanks for placing this cache, Cruiser95, for us and others to find.

Took a bit of search but eventually found with 3LG.
TFTC

We are staying at Beachport for a 4 night camping trip with Earthlight & muggle friends, no electricity as we are camping in the national park, it has been a fantastic time spending time down this way finding caches along the way, took a while to find this one as we looked in the obvious spots first. TFTC

Nice quick find! Thanks for the hide! Lovely quiet spot to sit for abit!

Found ok . Spied a little bit of wire. Tftc

Another great weekend with my geofamily, plenty of miles and smiles with a few geocaches found along the way.

I made the find here, , thanks for the cache Cruiser.

A lovely spot - My first Victorian cache for the trip.

TFTC ☺ eldest geokiddy found it, clever devil

Found this one on the way to p.m.caves. Good hide first one with my daughter, she loved it . Tftc. Log paper damp hard to write on,recommend replacement.

Felt like we were being watched by a car in the distance, quickly found and moved on

A.C. Found this one lying on the ground, replaced in obvious spot. TFTC

Found this but the cache was on the ground. Put it back safely into the obvious spot. Brilliant volcanic rocks and wonderful bird sounds here. TFTC

Found It

A windy spot alright and a clever hide!
TFTC With the Robinson Family

Clever hide, quick find as we make our way to Princess Margaret Rose Caves. TFTC

On our todays tour we visited this site.
We took the opportunity to search for the cache nearby. We found it and signed the logbook.
Thanks for this nice cache !

Took a bit to find as geokids got distracted woth climbing things.

Our first nano find! Found during summer 2014 big only just getting round to logging it now. Cool cache!

Nice easy find on our attempt to reach 500 caches today. TFTC D

Found with Cattycat on the way to the caves after staying a couple of days at the rennick campground (teddy bears picnic)

Tftc

Pete

Easy peasy pipeneasy !

Found it but why a nano here?

Quickly located as we headed towards the caves!!! Thanks Cruiser95 for the hide!!

There was a big, big spider in the hide. We could log the cache, as soon as she went away.

Found on The Joy of SECS weekend along with Astro, Freddo, four-fun & Team Waldron.
Great spot, cool cache.
TFTC Cruiser95

Cache found on the Joy of SECS tour with four-fun, Freddo, thewhitedoggang and Team Waldron. There were a stack of boxes to find so we pushed on. We even had a quick round of Mountopoly and a couple of Powertrails to add to the fun. The weather was cool and sometimes icy so wet boots were the order of the day.

Bloody Nanos! Spawn of satan. Burn down the Nano factory, and exterminate anyone who sells Nanos.

Thanks to Cruiser95 and clear skies from TeamAstro.

A 3 day caching expedition with Freddo, Astro, WhiteDogGang an Four Fun.

Apologies for the generic log but we did a few trails and some of the Mountopoly series. We also did most of the BLE series.

The mozzies were full on at times and it rained most of the first day.

Remember, everytime you hide a nanocache God kills a kitten.
This cache was found on the Joy of SECS Tour 2013. Thanks for the cache. Our group had a lot of fun this weekend. We were in a rush today and there was more caches to find. Woot.
-------------------------------------------------------------
This cache was found using a Garmin Montana 650t. Waypoints and paperless geocaching downloaded via GSAK 8.

Found when on 'The Joy of SECS' tour/assault along with Freddo, Astro, Team Waldron & White Dog Gang. Much fun was had, very wet boots were experienced and many caches were found including this one!
Cheers & TFTC [^]

Pulled up to this area, first thing we notice is the amount of kangaroos there were around this area, so huge & bouncing off over fences, they are wonderful creatures to watch. They sit there staring at the car then bounce away. Kids enjoyed watching the kangaroos. Then thought, we have a cache to find, let's go. Looked where we thought it was but nope, then read the description/hint & looked further down, Geomum finds this one. While signing log, kids run over to a head skull of some sort. TFTC

Took me a while but found it in the end!! good little hide..
Cheers for the cache!

In the Mount for the Goths dinner event and the Geozing Race and of course...caching Out for the afternoon with Aussie M&M and Mogni.

Dead calm today at the water pipes. Thanks Cruiser95

This was a quick group find and there were plenty of emus and kangaroos to entertain us nearby as well. TFTC.

Tftc

Great illite cache tftc

Thanks for highlighting this water pipe and the gravity feed it uses! Thanks for the cache.

COOL TNLN

Good cache. It was blowing a gale. TFTC

This cache lived up to its name... very windy. Blinky made a quick find, while I was still kicking rocks.
Thanks

Well hidden cache, lucky for the little give away showing or it would have been a DNF for us. TFTC

Bit windy today, from a South Easterly direction. Sneaky hide. Found with Team Frarog. He just beat me to it with smartphone. I was using my Gpsr, but at least I was watching for snakes. Tftcsl. Log is nearly full and slightly damp.

Ha Ha was walking around with it in my pocket, whilst Old Stratty was hunting around. Finally let him see it. TFTC

Nice hide, TFTC

Tricky, tricky, tricky! Very creative place to hide your cache and was nearly about to give up. Lukily we perservered and found it

Something wasn't right !!
No windiness [:o]
I hope it is still OK to log this find on a calm and slightly foggy morning [:o)]
I met 'Fatso' near GZ... he's shed some weight [:o]
There are lots of wombats in this area, but I think that one is dead !!
A nice easy cache find in a peaceful area [^]

TFTC. SL. Found during my attendance at the BIG Little Event at Nelson Vic. Sorry for brevity. Sent from my Garmin GPS phone.
ruralslicker 231

Searches high and low but couldn't turn it up. The good luck from the BLE deserted me

Found during the Big Little Event in Nelson. Caching with Whites on Windsor, lolfrog, and Team Pedal Pushers.

Good hide Cruisers95. This had us stumped for a while!

TFTC.

Found on our BIG Little Event trip. After a little bit of head scratching, the cache was spotted. Very nice hide. Nice water pipe. TFTC!

We were in the area for the BLE weekend and this was just one of heaps that we found while out & about in the area.
Many thanks for the neat cache Cruiser95.
TNLNSL.

After an initial look didn't produce anything we had to look a little more carefully. I should have believed the GPS. TFTC

Last few hours out & about with Happy Pants before his wife picks him up & they head back to Melbourne. We decided to grab some caches around Nelson whilst attending the Big Little Event...

I met up with Team 3InOne at this one & tagged along with them for a few caches... Clever hide...

Took: Nothing Left: Nothing Signed Log

Thanks to Cruiser95 for the cache & bringing me here...

#3541 We were in town for the BLE event and after touring the Princess Margaret Rose Caves we set out to continue collecting some nicely hidden caches in the area - this was one of them. We pulled up near GZ and the girls meandered over to GZ and soon located cache in a great little niche for it. There are quite a few water tanks around the area - no doubt they were relied upon heavily recently with the fires. Our thanks to Cruiser95 for the cache. Cheers [^]

Found on way to the caves. Found as a part of the Big Little Event. Beautiful spot. TFTC when signing caught up with SnapHappy.

Found while at the Big Little Event
Tftc

Found at 11:04 AM GAFF5 in the company of Phetlern, Squalid and ruralslicker. Not so much wind today, but just a nice breeze. Interesting way to get water into the tankers.
Thanks Cruiser95,

Well our big adventure is up and running with lolfrog, pedal pushers jeffeddy on wards we go

At the BLE Event in Nelson. Caching with Whites on Windsor, lolfrog, and jeffeddy. Great cache, TFTC.

11:05
Hoping to collect some more smilies; on a Sunday run from the Big Little Event with Pprass, Rural Slicker and Squalid. A first for us - to see the way the fire trucks are lowered beneath the standpipe - looks very efficient.

TNLN . . SL . . Thanks for the hunt Cruiser95.

Sunday at BLE and Huurtle, Dennisc52 and I set off to replace a cache which had been lost in the recent bushfires

There were a few caches on the way and, luckily for me, the boys were happy to head for Dartmoor where a couple of months ago in 40 odd degree heat while riding my motorbike back from Halls Gap I had stopped briefly, seen the nearby caches and just been too darn hot and tired to get any...... so today was the day [^]

Later on, we met up with Honeysucker and firesafe and continued caching until well after dark: 4WDing on dirt roads, beaches and through the forests [^]

A HUGE day of attempting 47 caches: 45 successful locus cache events [^] and only 2 DNFs

Now when there is a cut out in the ground, you just have to drive through it....don't you[?]

Luckily that didn't affect our ability to cache and a find was made

SL. TFTC Cruiser95

Found on our trip to the Little Big Event with Firesafe Hurtle and locus good hide took awhile to sort out

Found with locus cache, Huurtle, Firesafe and Honeysucker while attending the BLE at Nelson. TFTC.

Spent the afternoon getting a few caches with other teams from the BLE.

Took a little while but spotted the blighter. TFTC.

Locus Cache, DennisC52, and myself joined up with FireSafe and HoneySucker to continue caching. This time on our way to Beaker's 'Border Bottom' cache and Margaret Rose Caves area....

Yes very windy here, yours truly found this one whilst the rest were scattered around looking in 'obvious spots' lol
TNLNSL
Thanks

Found in the company of pprass, phetlern and rural slicker - pprass did make a comment about the nice pipe. It wasn't windy today though. Thanks for the hide.

Travelled to the local area for the big little event and hence logging as many caches as possible in the next few days.
Day 3

Very tricky on a windy day.

A neat hide. TFTC.

Slippery little sucker.

Clever hide. I enjoyed the hunt for this one.

Found at 15:57

Joined up with J+J.au...Caching the area while attending the "Big Little Event", really enjoying the trip, company and the great locations the caching is showing us. We are having lots of laughs and collecting quite a lot of caches this week. SL..TFTC

1926th cache found by WazzaAndWenches. Log signed at 11:15Hrs.

We're in Nelson for the Big Little Event over the weekend. A quick trip into the Mount for some supplies and a few caches along the way...

Certainly a bit out of the ordanairy but, I suppose, water is a bit scarce out here.

Thank you Cruiser95.

For this one we were walking around in circles, GPS just didn't want to settle. Eventually a sneaky hide was found. TFTC

Found this nifty hide on the way to the caves, they were not open, so we got a cache instead.
Was down here with Mrs. Frog for the BLE
TFTC
Gayle minus Mark

Suscoe plus two's 5th find of an afternoon run.
This is the most unusual piece of aqua engineering that we have seen.
A clever hide indeed.
Thanks to Cruiser95.

Great cache, cheeky little hide. TFTC
