Out for a days caching with the Geobro and it’s a lovely day. First for the day filled a gap in the D/T matrix .

News break - it wasn’t a find as an extra maze was present but had dropped off so not retrieveable

Having been home for a few days I decided to head out on a short mid week adventure. I headed out west to explore some caches in an area I have not been before.

Geosenses led the way for the hide of this cache. Signed the log and now off for some lunch.

Thanks 6Hinemoa2 for the cache.

This geocache is currently disabled for the duration of the Covid-19 crisis in compliance with current restrictions on non-essential travel.
For the welfare of all I feel there is no choice in the matter as the virus is transmitted by surface contact and geocaching by nature, is a game that involves touching.

No Kangaroo here thank goodness. Quick easy find. We’ll definitely be back to get the rest. TFTC ️

Out to find a few caches for my last caching day of the year. I chose this area as I have found a few here previously and had still plenty more to target. I also decided to try and make it to the intervening days event in Melton later in the day. It was a hot day with lots of dust and flies but a satisfying total of 49 caches in all to clock over my 2000th find for the calendar year. Still some passing traffic but nice to be amongst the trees on a hot day instead of the wide open paddocks. A quick find in a likely spot here. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache and the series 6Hinemoa2.

Caching in the area we picked up a few caches and this was one of them.

We enjoyed this series as some finds took longer than others, it certainly on our toes. An excellent hide, cache and contents were in good condition.

Thanks 6Hinemoa2 for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

What a nice series to do; really creative caches, and generally fairly straight forward hides, except a few where time didn't allow a more thorough searching of GZ.

GoodLook came over for the weekend so we went on an adventure together which included: attending an event where I caught up with buds I've not seen for a while; enjoying a day of caching (part of my searching for clues, gems, and other caches to unlock that vault); briefly stopping into a CITO and planting a tree; and then unfortunately I needed to go off to hospital. There was certainly a lot of laughter and silly chatter over the weekend.

Thanks for your contribution to the game, we enjoyed finding your cache.

A nice series, but wow it was a busy road!

Woz needed some caches to get his souvenirs for the current GC.com promo (Mystery at the Museum), so we thought we would check out this trail and others in this area.

Not sure what happened to us, but we had a fair few DNFs - neither of us really had our caching mojo on, so maybe we will find it easier to find them next time we are in the area.

A few days in Victoria to lift the mood and catch up with special friends....and what a great break it was. Let's just say there was a little bit of beta testing going on (wherigo cartridges), future plans hatched, yummy meals consumed, laughter shared, stories told and some chilled time woven in also. Events, a tree planting CITO, locating a few caches and lots of driving were all part of the fun.

Thanks to 6Hinemoa2! for placing this cache for our enjoyment [^]

Sean.75, kenare and I started the day with a breakfast event then headed south for some caching. We had a vague hit list that we wanted to find and we found them all plus a few extras. I had a great time finding lots of different sorts of caches. Sorry for generic logs but I'm tired and I'd rather keep up my logs current incase I forget some (which I have done lol). TFTC

Over this way with kenare and kenbryl for a day out, and of course some caching along the way. Nice quick find. Cigc. Tftc

We took a detour to the Avalon Airshow to fill in a calendar space and work towards our next milestone. We had some time to kill before the fireworks tonight. It was very hot but we enjoyed the air con as we got in and out of the car.
Thanks for this enjoyable cache.

Reasonably accurate coordinates and a common style of hide led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks 6Hinemoa2 for the cache.

Thanks to the long weekend back home, I was able to pop over the ditch for the mega and a ‘few’ caches along the way! I was really after the numbers on this trip, planning to achieve 50+ each of the three days for a challenge – something that is getting much more difficult back home! The weather was great and I had a ball thanks to all the CO’s placing great caches!
Time to collect a few in town and then head out for some more series. Nice area to explore! TFTC!!

My fifth day of a 9 day caching road trip holiday.
Well I've always heard there's 4 seasons in one day down in Melbourne. Today started with that 4th season that is least desired while caching... RAIN!
I was set to do some hiking cache trails, packed my bag with plenty of water and only realised it was raining when I got to the hotel carpark. I returned to my room to grab a rain jacket and stomped back to my car knowing that it'll be an uncomfortable day. My shoes were soaked by the 6th cache, and I was wetter in the inside of my raincoat from sweat than what the rain could have done!
Then the rain stopped after a couple of hours, but my feet stayed wet until 6pm when I took my shoes and socks off for the drive back to my hotel. Lucky that I like geocaching enough to ignore those issues!
In the end I managed to find 65 today.

Thanks for the caches.

The "I have a new device and I'm going to use it" Adventure, part 11. I have a half-day off, and there's a list of caches my wife has done that I have not. Seems like basic logic to me...
Thanks heaps, 6Hinemoa2!
No kangaroos (still), but a cito opportunity.

This cache wasn’t far off the road, in fact it was a little too close, because drivers could see me from the road even when I was on the opposite side of the thing the cache was found in. It was at a Good height for once. Not down on ground level. Then again, not many in this series were at ground level. It was also simply

Found by Aussie Train Driver 01/06/2017, find number 1040.
I have had this series on the radar for a long time and a day off work today provided the perfect opportunity for a bit of caching.
I almost didn't need the GPS for this one, I followed the cacher's track to the hollow and bingo, there was the cache. TFTC! Very Happy

Headed back to the Eynesbury area this morning for a few more caches. There were a couple in this series that I missed last time so did a bit of 'mopping up'. Thx.

11:46, 29 April 2017. #645.

Until now, this series and the other caches along the road to Eynesbury have been opportunity targets for me. Today I needed a fix and do some catch up on building numbers, so I headed up to see how many I could clean up in a couple of hours. This was the seventh of nine in the series and a quick find today. I was going to round off with Western Sprawl (GCHD3H) as #10 on the way home, but you'll need to read that log to find out why it didn't happen.

The cache is in good condition.

SL. TFTC 6Hinemoa2.

While staying in Keilor with a friend for a couple of days we decided to get out of the high traffic areas to go caching. We noticed there was a nice selection of caches out this way and returned here to do more after our time here yesterday. Lots of creative hides and thanks to 6Hinemoa2 for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area. Big GrinBig Grin

We decided to head to Eynesbury to complete this series for no more reason than it was there, but it turned out to be a fun and interesting outing. We took the geodog who loved the walking part getting to chase a few rabbits and we were able to find all but one of the caches. Thanks 6Hinemoa2 for the series and making us aware of the history here.

Another quick find. At least here the traffic was a bit slower in the 50km/h zone.

Found by Team Justice #1255

Find # 3833

A solo day spent tracking down caches on the Legends, TSS V2, Eynesbury Series and the odd ones that came up on the map.

The last stretch of the day. I knew i was not going to finish this trail but I was going to give a go.
Made all the finds on the side of the road despite the peak hour traffic.
Wow Saturdays arvos are buisy down here.

Looking to move closer to a milestone I'd decided to visit Eynesbury in the hopes of increasing my finds to 999 as I had a particular Melbourne cache in mind for my 1,000.
Although some of the hints were cryptic almost all the caches had spot on co-ords making a find a fairly easy process.
Thanks for creating this interesting and informative series.
