Today we were supposed to be relaxing on a beach in the South Pacific, but cyclone Gabrielle was in our way so our cruise ship turned south from Brisbane instead.

Fine for us though, means we can catch up with EeePees and go caching!

We came to the college to pick up KingSmev, while we waited for him to finish I ducked off into the bush. Wandered around in circles for a bit, just after EeePees arrived to help I found it!

As the manager of the theatre here at mt Nelson, I found this one very amusing

At first I was conFused about where to park. Should I drive into the school or park at one of the many access points along the road. I reFused to walk too far as it was raining. Quick look at the map, conFusion overcome. Into the school I went. Quick short walk and luckily easy find. This one has been deFused 28 March 2022 16:45. Thanks WeedyCC

Cool cache!! Approach it from an alternate angle and you’ll see it tucked in a tree. Brilliant! TFTC Smile

I think I would have found a bit more quickly if I approached from a different direction!

Finding a way to this one proved a bit of a challenge but after a bit of a search on Google Maps i had an entry and a park [^]

Made my way to the hide which took a bit for me to actually spot, but once it was spotted i knew it was the cache Big Grin

SL of a nice hide at 13:13 on Monday 28 June 2021.
The cache and contents are in A1 condition Cool

Today we decided to head to Mount Neilson and find a few more caches that we have not found and to make them a smilie. A very cold, windy and a tad wet but braved the coooooooold weather and rugged up for the occacion.

Cache and contents were in good condition.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Brilliant !!

Nice hide. Replaced bag, but needs a smaller bag and more log paper.
 
27-Jan-21
The old logs are wadded up and the old bag was shredded. Nice hide though.
 
27-Jan-21
This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.
 
27-Jan-21
Nice one! Replaced bag. Suggest tidy up of old log sheets.
 
26-Jan-21
We found it easily not on ground level.

Hi all, apparently the log book is full in this cache. Unfortunately we now live in the North of the state and wont be able to replace the log any time soon.

Would it be possible if somebody could bring a few small sheets of paper to add to the cache when next on the hunt for this one? From recent reports apart from this is the only issue and the cache is still going strong!

It would be a shame to Archive this one if its only the log book that's the issue!

Thanks Smile

Ready to give up when Geo Manoj shouted
Got it. His first cache in Tasmania

Trying to find a micro with no hint was too difficult for us with my iPhone!
 
25-Jan-20
Reading Tashmaree’s log helped us make a quick find. Log is a bit damp and could do with being replaced.

Had a good rummage around the co-ordinates but no sign!
 
25-Apr-19
Nailed to a tree in a fuse holder
 
24-Apr-19
Didn’t sign as paper and bag is perishing. Found with Gazza09
 
24-Apr-19
Didn’t sign as paper and bag damaged
 
22-Apr-19
We came with a replacement log but there was no point because it needs a new bag. I really don't get micros in the bush and especially don't get them without a hint. May be time to archive this because the owner can't maintain it. TFTC
 
23-Mar-19
Found and if knew needed log I would have done might come back cheers
 
14-Feb-19
Hi all, apparently the logbook needs replacing for this but we no longer live in Hobart!
I really don't want to archive this as its still there! If somebody could replace the logbook next visit it would be kindly appreciated!!!
 
14-Feb-19
Spotted the cache after a very short search.
The log is seriously overdue for a change.

Very clever hide. Didn't take to long to find. Be mindful of snakes on a very hot day.

This week's leaderboard had us trailing our friend Porkchop6977, which was something we couldn't let stand! Naturally, the only solution was to go out and and find a few caches and retake the lead!

We decided we'd go for a few caches in the Mount Nelson area, as we'd found a few there previously, and were keen to try to complete all of those nearby. In total today we found 5 traditional caches, with no DNFs. It didn't end up being enough to win for the week, but we still had lots of fun exploring the area!

This ended up being our last cache for the day. Having found a few in Bicentennial Park nearby, we set our sights on the caches sited near to Hobart College. Unfortunately, due to logistical constrains this ended up being the only one there that we had time for.

It didn't take too long to walk to the GZ from our car park, and (going on a hunch) we had a rough idea what we were looking for. Unfortunately there were plenty of places to hide such a thing, so it did take a little looking to finally locate it. Eventually we did though, finding a container that looked almost exactly how we expected it to.

Definitely an unusual cache! Not a bad little spot, and a fun challenge to find!

TFTC!

Tassie Trip Day 110 - Today we went to town and checked on the location and parking area for our little boat trip around the harbour and parking for the trip was all sorted then of to try again at a missed cache and do a couple of other caches so off we went collecting some more along the way

Making our way back we decided to go for a couple of nearby caches and this was soon found in a loction that was a little different for the device to be seen in.

Thanks WeedyCC for bring us here and showing us the area.

First find for new geocashe kid!

Sneaky hide. That is all.
 
28-Oct-18
I re-fuse to miss this one!

Thanks for this cache WeedyCC - it's a good one. I dnf'ed this one a couple of years ago. Today I finally returned with a previous finder and got a little nudge in the right direction - I just wasn't looking at things from the right angle! Glad to turn this sad face into a smiley at last. Cheers.
