Mission 12: Torrens Canberra, Australian Capital Territory, Australia
By Nemo4 (adopted by Cankid) on 01-Sep-12. Waypoint GC3VYAY

Thought this would be a good one to become owner of, I was FTF years ago, but I have today twice inspected the GZ and alas the unique container has flown the coop, perhaps when the branch it was perched on came crashing to the ground along with 50% of the main supporting structure, the tree in other words. There is no sign of the container and the last find was made in July 2016 and at present this appears to be the only solution.

Mission 12: Torrens was transferred from Cankid to user dingbat12

Will check this and make sure all good to go within the next 7 days.

We had crazy fun geocaching on Saturday and this one hit the mark! The log was damp and we weren't able to record our visit. Oh well. We still found it! TFTC [:o)]

Yeah a little full! Found a spare 4 mm. TFT crazy cache!

20/5 We were in the area so we figured it might be nice to do a quick "mission" . A very lovely evening for a walk up here with the moon and stars. We were expecting a bit more of an effort to log this one but once at GZ it was an easy reach for this smiley...assume it should be a bit higher but we replaced as found.
TFTC Cankid

Think it is time for a log refresh , we squeezed a SCS for our log but it is well and truly full. Also based on the D/T the placement of this one might need to be checked and reset .

A bird in the hand is worth more than two in the bush. No room to sign the wet logbook. Needs attention by owner.

Well that was a bit hairy after overnight rain. Still managed to reach although a little nervous on my own perch.
The log is full.

Thanks very enjoyable

We decided to grab a few caches this morning, and figured Mt Taylor would be a good challenge. We began with the lower/neighbouring slopes, then headed up the mountain, down the other side, then back up and over to return to our car. What we had planned on being about 4 hours, turned out to be over 9 hours!!

What a cool cache!! Not so good for short/less agile people, but luckily that only applies to one of us. A favourite for us. TFTC!

Spent the morning looking at a new puzzle, then got the call out from AngelG27 to collect one nearby. Needed the daily exercise, so dashed out. She mentioned that there is a cache that requires a technique I have conducted on a number of occasions lately. Sounds good to me. Parked nearby and jogged to GZ. Ha. Love the cache. A quick collect and recorded the info for the series. Propped in position until a few walkers passed by. TFTC Cankid.

GeoTom found this but GeoDad had to retrieve. Log full. TFTC

It took a bit of effort to get this one. Thanks

Tricky when wet and slippery. Log full and slightly moist, only enough room to put my name.

Decided to head to Mt Taylor with Army_Stealth for some caches, this was one of many found on the day, TFTC

Did some caching around Pearce today with injuryman
Specifically mount Taylor
Unfortunately we did not have time to find them all but we will be back!
On the upside, injuryman reached the milestone of 1000 cache finds!

This one helped with the Canberra mapping challenge
TFTC

Excellent cache, needs a favourite point. Mt Taylor is a great spot for an early morning walk! T4TC

A lovely, clever hide. It took me a few minutes to get the right angle for the find. From there a bit of work to retrieve and find the log too full and brittle for me to sign. I took a photo for the CO instead. TFTC

Easily found while doing the first few wps for of Workout 101. TFTC.

What a great cache to bring friends to to show about geocaching

Loved this one. I am a bit old and overweight to sign the log but I got a photo to prove that I found it (if required) TFTC

I felt like a walk and this is not an area I know well so, here I came. This one made me laugh even though nabbing it was a challenge! Thanks Cankid

Camo tricked me at first! I'm assuming most of the missions have gone as I didn't see a clue to take down. A bit tricky trying to retrieve the log with fumbling freezing fingers but got there in the end. Then had a conversation with a muggle walking past who was a bit confused about what I was doing there. Thanks Cankid

For more than a year, I've been working on a challenge cache where you have to have found caches within Australia by 15 or more reviewers. But, boy does riblit have a grip on caches in NSW! One near Oberon slipped through his fingers, and a couple in Canberra. Other than that it is off to Albury or interstate!

Any way, cankid must have a magic touch, as he got this one listed by Wis Kid, and if things go to plan, I'll get my 15th reviewer tomorrow at another of his caches ...

Great cache, I'm only new to this but I think it'll be a while before I laugh out loud like I did when I spotted this one. TFTC!

A nice container, TFTC.

TFTC. Thought I was being watched! We'll sort of. Have seen other fauna caches but this was by far the most realistic.

Together with arbor95 we started the day with this nice climping cache. This cache we needed for the Reviewer Challenge.

The cache was found easily and the climb was not that hard.

Thank You for this cache and for keep it going.

Greetimgs to the owner.

WHAT A COOL CACHE - was introducing a new friend to caching and this was his first find.

TFTC - MC KENNA AND SCOOTER

By far my favourite cache ive found so far! Thanks!!

#411. 70 days in a row.

Found this one after work. Hadn't realised it was a tree climb, so I was still in my work clothes, but I'd got here so I was going to find it dammit.

Couldn't find any clue for the final cache though.

Found today on a walk around/up mount taylor.. managed to make the climb up without much trouble, and I really liked the container as well.. didnt realise until just now that I forgot to get the clue, so I'll have to go back at some point. cheers!

TFTC what a great find and a great clue.

Cftc

Great one!

Well that was completely unexpected. Was only by chance i looked that way. Clever one.
Thanks for the find. A favorite point from me.

We parked nearby and made a longish walk to this one. Spotted the cache, waited for a muggle to pass, and up I went and grabbed it. Love the container/camo! Thanks Cankid.

Don't mind a bit of tree climbing if it's not too high, and this one was just ok....
A bird flew down to Mr Domsky, who was also in charge of signing the log. Just after the log was signed, it flew straight back up the tree. Took a photo of the unusual bird to show to Canberra Ornithologists Group. A rare sighting indeed....


Thanks Cankid,

Domsky

Was there a clue? Didn't see one. This is about the limit of my tree climbing abilities so glad to be able to scratch my initials in log book

A unique container which required a bit of effort. TFTC Cankid and a fav from me.

Thanks for the view - a very cool container for the cache. Glad I was geocaching with a mountain goat!

Very very cool!

Very good

Another quick find very clever hide It gets a fav from me:)

617 [366] Found with the dapper Plofessor. I made the ascent and had a laugh. Appreciate the effort that went into this. Fave point from moi. Tks Cankid!

Found with jase from jessnjase

Napalm237 spotted the container within a few seconds after arriving at GZ.

He decided to make the retrive.

Great cache container and awesome find

Top stuff
gets a fav

Nice cache tftc

Very clever hide loved it a fav from me TFTC

Quick find on a nice Sunday morning in Canberra. Signed log: TNGD. TFTC!

We collected the mission today as we were in the area dropping off the parents. TFTC

Fantastic hide. Luckily no one was passing when retrieving.

Yippee Tom and brad found it! Awesome container!

Fun and de mama of BikFamily found it!

Sunday 25 August 2013 - a glorious sunny winter's day without a cloud in the sky however a slight cool breeze kept my jacket zipped. Great kitch cache worth a favourite point. Thx p2p, TFTC.

A bit stumped to start with, but searched low and high. Spotted it and the terrain rating became clear. Signed log and continued our twitching. TFTC

First for the day, and must I say, brilliant. Thanks on a cold wet day:-)

Replaced today, added container to the cammo.

dang no wonder i couldn't find it yesterday! Searched hard too!

Have grabbed the cache to do repair work. Be back soon...

Hi needs a new log and a more waterproof container, inside the cool container!

Nice cache!

Found this at last, or rather reached it at last. The cache was found where I could easily reach it. Last time it was beyond my reach. We signed the log as best as we could, because the log is full and damp and needs replacement. Then Decrypter placed it further out of reach, in a similar place that I spotted it last visit. The owner needs to replace the log. TFTC.

Easier find than it probably was designed to be, but I put it back in a harder to reach spot. Great cache. I gave this a favourite.TFTC.

I like the cache camoflage!

The log is full and unreadable due to dampness. I couldn't see the clue anywhere either.

TFTC!

Kids helped

Found it whilst out for a walk, didn't have a writing implement so just logging the find here. Stopped to check the details under a tree and was a little surprised to look up and find something starting right at me, took a few seconds to register what I was seeing.

Nice container! Log full and a bit damp. Don't know about that terrain/difficulty rating. Did it in-situ.

Thanks.

I was looking around and wondering just what was needed when I saw this one a bit closer than expected. Oh well, I'm not complaining. The log was a bit damp and I had to squeeze in a mark on the edge. Thanks.

No troubles with this one, Polly was on the ground.

Log is full and dampish. Replaced to a likely location.

Thanks Cankid (and Nemo)

A great day to be out caching, and especially with Secret Squirrel who teamed up for the day.

Nice hide.

A wonderful Autumn geocaching day with colour and sunshine
thanks for the company Captain Tomato

I really liked the cache container here

Down from Sydney visiting. Took the geohound out for a walk on a humid but overcast Sunday. Spotted the cache easily. Now how to retrieve it. This should be interesting. Will try in the coming months to complete the series. TFTC.

Excellent cache - enjoyed the search!!

So fun to find!

easy find this morning before my caching trek up Mt Taylor, tftc, kept me going

'2013: 36 Days In A Row' - Fraggles picked me up and we decided to find a cache on the way home. Just as Fraggles and I started looking, T-Rex05 makes the find! We were there for all of 20 seconds before he found it. Retrieving and logging was a different story... Thanks for the cache.

Another find for T-Rex05! A fun cache to find, and we saw one of these not long ago when in NZ. TFTC

Day 36; cache 36. Going up to this cache I thought we would be looking around for a while but thankfully our awesome t-Rex, our little Anakin of caching, spotted it nearly instantly. The cache is strong in that one! TFTC!

3rd on my 10km walk today and have to laugh at this one. Have done caches like this before. So up I went and while I went up a muggle went by.
Here I was tapping on the cache to get the log out and I think she thought I was holding a real one. TFTC

I morning dog walk and despite being early the day was hot already (20C) but took geodog over the ridge and was using the phone this time as I left my GPSr at home , looks like dog walking is popular around here and plently of people about and some stopped on the track near GZ so I had to be extra stealthy and it was a bit of an effort but got there in the end and collected clue replaced cache and was off again and muggles where non-the-wiser.. nice container a double take to check if it was real or not .. lol

thanks

Awesome cache, surprised me at first. TFTC

Found with torrevieja. Classic! Very enjoyable. Thank you. Will need a new log very soon.

Nice

I found the cute cache this visit, but couldn't reach it. I tried, but slid down on my attempt.

Found on a nice afternoon. After a nice walk to GZ along the paths, the cache was quickly spotted. After a short scramble, the cache was retrieved and signed. Had a bit of a slip too, but all good. A very cute and cool container, love to see these ones. Nice area. Thanks Nemo4!

5859 + 646 = 6505. A few GC and GCA finds this afternoon with Sol de lune.

Last find for the day. A bit of fun was had with SDL doing the recovery while I kept the muggles at bay. Thanks again Nemo4 !

TNLN - TFTC !!

Cheers....

Visited with fitzy after work. Made the GZ area ok and then I did the honours, passed the log down to fitzy who signed it, and once I had it back in hand, simply replaced it. All good.

Thanks Nemo, another one crossed off.

Oh yes that's right - I did go and get this. I remember wandering past a few times and assuming I wouldn't find it without a GPS so never looked. But it's kinda cute.

Loved the container for this one!
It was easy too when I sent BatgirlandCo up to fetch the cache too.


TFTC!

I really must read the descriptions more thoroughly, 1st time forgot the tweezers, now just read that there was a clue to collect, so that will make it three climbs.
Nice cache.

A fun find to end a day at home doing jobs around the house. We grabbed our bikes and rode the trails behind the suburbs to get here, including some great downhill runs! A nice hide, thanks Nemo4.

The third and final cache found by the legendary GEO-SQUAD. The squad has now been dissolved as it has completed it's epic quest.

Great container .. a satisfying find with B&S

Very fine indeed! Chuckle ... ta.

Chuckled at GZ. This is second cache of this type I have sought lately. Not sure if there was supposed to be a hint on the log scroll. I forgot to check.

Thanks Nemo.
