A quick find while walking through the forest withGeodogZelda. I saw it from the path, out in the open. It looks like it's seen a bit of a bush fire, but otherwise, it's all good. I replaced it with extra camo. TFTC

We were having a picnic nearby before heading home and noticed some information about koalas nearby. Decided to have a bushwalk to see if we could spot any (with my sis, Brewwithaview from the UK). Beautiful walk but watch out for leeches. We managed to bring several home with us!! Thanks for placing the cache and bringing to this lovely spot.

Had a nice stroll through this bushland and had a very easy find at both caches. No mozzies but I sprayed liberally with mozzie spray before going in, also because I was cautious of ticks and leeches as well.Weirdos seen: little kid with an orange mullet, very talkative. Weather: crisp but cool. Sunny in the sun, shady in the shadeGPS: talking well with the satellites.Lots of driving and listening to podcasts and stopping to grab caches and figuring out where all the Adventure labs were.Wildlife seen: bunnies, bunnies, bunnies at my campsite.Snack situation: Sushi from salamander bay shopping centreTFTC and thanks for showing me this new place and maintaining the cache here.

TFTC,
1 of 6 for today. The container was melted.
We are spending a few night's in the area and wanted to complete this series.
While it was a good walk, it seriously requires some maintenance. However speaking to our friends we have learnt that the reserve has been sold to a developer by the State Government and has been surveyed for subdervision.
The interpretative signage was very interesting but the tracks are almost impossibly to find at times and we probably completed it the wrong way around.
Visited trackables.
