Had a look for this one earlier this year with no luck... Today it was an easy find, the cache was very easy to spot and not well hidden. Might pay for the CO to drop out and replace the container as it has no lid.

A 10 day trip to Tasmania with a lot more caching then initially expected, but I enjoyed every minute of it! This was one of the many caches I found and enjoyed. Can't wait to get back here and do it all over again, there are so many great places in Tasmania.

West Aussies campervanning around Tasmania for our 1 yr wedding anniversary, and Muggle Husband allowed me to do a few caches along the way, and even joined in on looking for most of them - but he just laughed as i got this one.

This was an easy find, although had to be quick and act like a ninja so as not to gain the attention of nearby muggles. Mind you this was after attempting to try every flavour of honey at the honey farm. Of course I couldn't try the 100 odd flavours and walked out feeling pretty sick but hyped on sugar. At least I had a find, so TFTC.

We have returned from Canada to discover a few more Australian caches! What a great way to explore the Land Down Under" ...
GPS was having a terrible time honing in on GZ. We were ready to give up when it finally settled down. Had one last look and there it was.
Enjoyed reading the stories of the huts. Thanks for sharing colliflowers!

Had been looking to cache this area for some time but suddenly, yesterday it became a reality. Had made the trip up to Lake Mckenzie (for a GCA cache ) and now wending our way back to Deloraine accommodation. Nice relaxing spot, great location for a cache.

Found together with LouiseAnn and sharkiefan on our second day in Tasmania for the long weekend.
The cache was quickly located and we got our names signed into the log before we were off to the next location.
Thanks for the cache colliflowers!
We had a great stay in Tasmania combining caching and sightseeing and got to try lots of excellent local products and see some lovely places.

We picked this cache up at 3:59pm. Since we had stopped in town to visit the honey shop, we just had to get this cache too. It only took a moment to find. The locals were setting up for their Australia Day picnic, which looked like it would be a great event.

Sharkiefan had the idea of heading to Tasmania for the Australia Day long weekend and invited me and Ostara74 along. We based ourselves in Launceston and did trips around the area from there. We had a great time, so thanks to all the cache placers and to Launceston and Tassie for putting on some great weather, we had a fantastic time! Thanks for the cache colliflowers.

[red]Find #1779[/red]

We were off early this morning as this is our last day in Tasmania for this trip. We had to come this way to gather some yum honey and fudge from the local stores. We had no problems with muggles here but it took a little while for us to find it as our GPSr had us about 4m away in a garden bed. Signed and returned as found, I think I wrote the wrong date on this one.

We enjoyed a wonderful 2 week trip around beautiful Tasmania soaking up the sights after visiting here almost 8 years ago. This time the little Na'wals are with us and some caching is to be done. We had a wonderful time time even the the terrible weather that we uncounted most of the time here.

We stopped for lunch at the Chudleigh General Store and afterwards had a look for this cache , which on the last time through had muggles. This time it was a quick find because the container was easy to see as the lid was open and showing. Someone had stuffed a bit of paper rubbish nearby so it may have been opened by a muggle.

I was hardly discreet in cycling gear, and muggle traffic was higher that usual due to the Chudleigh show. Nevertheless made a quick but discreet find and replace. Lovely part if the world. TFTC

We decided to pop into the Chudleigh store next door to the hut for lunch; which by the way was good in quality and price. On leaving we discovered two people in the hut sitting at the table, although we managed a quick look while reading the display boards. We should have looked before lunch when the area was clear of muggles.

Whilst making plans for a walk to Mount Pillinger we discovered there was a geocache on top and one also at the not too distant Lake McCoy, so we decided to incorporate both destinations in the walk.
As the last day of walking was not long we included a few caches in the Mersey Valley along the way between Chudleigh and Mole Creek.

A bit of a road trip with Old Saint had this as the first cache to find. We had searched for this together previously with no sucess and Old Saint had been back to search by himself again with no sucess.

Although this time with a new liitle tool that I had purchased I spotted the cache and then reached in to retrieve.

A clever little hide, but it did ask a question, why did we miss it previously? Cache was found at 9.01

Thanks for the cache colliflowers

Hi colliflowers
Another caching day accompanied by Budgietas in the North West area.
I left home at 0500hrs, meeting up with the "flyer" at 0600hrs. I found 11 for the day while Budgie got 20 or 21. We got back to Budge's home at 2100hrs and I arrived back in Huonville an hour later.

Chudleigh hut was our first find for the day. This was my third attempt and Budgie's second.
If it was not for a tool owned and operated by Budge, similar to that I used to use searching for malliceous objects on cars, I don't think we would have found it this trip; but find it Budgie did and a find is claimed. The log was signed at 0900hrs. Great hide!!

From here we did "State of the Union", the "Gog series", some of sirius Tas' new ones around the Wilmot River and a couple in Devonport.

Overall a long and in some places a hard day but very rewarding. We both scored on flip flop (leech) bite each in the Wilmot area; I even carried one in my clothing back to Turners Beach where it tried to attach to my hand. No blood in my alcohol stream - TeHeHe!

Loved your cache
TFTC and cheers
OldSaint.
