While sitting around comparing finds with The_Tritonz, we noticed that I had forgot to log this hide !! It obviously slipped through the cracks, as I remember it was a very busy weekend. Thanks for the puzzle and sorry about the delay in logging !! TFTC doheng
With McLookers on the job over the past few days all except 1 clue that eluded us were in hand to give us the final location. Determining the best way to the cache we chose the shortest route rather than the logical path but in the end we struck gold and some decent unlove. Thanks doheng for a great series that unfortunately we didn't get to finish due to the heavy rains, next time we visit they will be first on our list.
A marathon effort. Lots of the caches for this were very tricky, many with excellent camo. The final took us into yet another area we had not already visited. Boy this place is a maze!! The cache was almost overlooked but not quite. Thanks again doheng for this whole adventure.
Found at 6:17 PM GAFF4/1 in the company of doheng. This was a mammoth effort to complete and even then I had a bit of help at the end. This has taken us 3 visits to Mildura to gather the information and now it is all over
I was thinking of doing the same thing when we were living in Melbourne as some caches were just too good to do just once.
Thanks doheng.

First multi. Want this tree in my backyard, perfect for reading. Loved all the birds, beautiful walk.TFTC
De Ja Vu for sure. We did them all today with NEW caching family, Daughter and granddauhters named The Flip Flops. They have just started and cannot get enough, so keen. Enjoyed the walk around the Billabong and meeting up with the doheng's again. Gets a FAV for the time and effort you always put into your caches. TFTC
Out with brisal5, Aussie M & M and doheng A big day of finding great caches and having lots of laughs.
Another great location and clever hide. Thankyou for the tour of some fantastic caches.

Day 3 of a caching long weekend to Mildura with Aussie M&M and mogni. . We wanted to complete De Ja Vu and had spent some time with the cache owner collecting the necessary caches and clues. Now was the time to go and retrieve it, but of course we stopped for a few caches along the way. Firstly on the way to the first WP and then on the way to the cache. Yes it was De Ja Vu but it also meant collecting some other caches. Lucky for us a few creeks were minus water making it a lot easier. And then a fitting end point and cache container. Thanks doheng a great series or caches and yet another fav point for this one too.
On the 2nd day of M&Ms, brisal5 and mogni's caching adventure to Sunraysia we teamed up with local caching identity doheng who kindly led us on a journey to some of the finer caches in the local area. It was a magnificent day of quality caching which resulted in many favourite points being awarded.
This cache was the main objective of the day and we were so happy to complete the journey. We were assisted (just a little) by doheng on the contributing caches, and without his help it would have taken considerably longer. This is a wonderful puzzle cache. TFTC doheng and also for the wonderful company. Favourite awarded.

This was our 1st cache find in the caching run & we found it at 08:34
So this now makes our total find count 5784.

We are spending a week caching around Mildura with Phetlern.
We've spent a really enjoyable time attempting this cache, and there were certainly many instances of Deja Vu as we cris-crossed the landscape again and again, powering around, being stumped, bushed and boiled before we got to the point of reaching the bird hide..
[/blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: Excellent (Under 2 metres)
Cache Condition: Container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Nothing.
Thanks doheng for the hunt today.

Having visited the relevant caches and collected the information earlier in the week, it was decided we should make an early start this morning to complete the mystery. Together with Ian & Penny we encountered many an instant of De Ja Vu as we enjoyed the work through this delightful area of Mildura.
TNLN . . SL . . Thanks for the hunt doheng.

{*FTF*} After coming home from a busy morning we were really to kick back and watch a movie - Then we noticed that this challenge was published. We reloaded all the caches and headed off. We thought the race was on when Mebclever had their name in the first cache with todays date, but then no sign of them . We had a tough time finding all the new hides. Took a bike for the longer sections and found ourselves on the wrong side of a piece of water again..... this time on the opposite side. Knowing how far it was to get to the other side I swam across with the GPS. We found some Ant Lions on the way home. I have been knee deep in water near GZ and have seen carp swimming across the path near here too hard to imagine now its so dusty. Thanks Doheng.

Found by Roma and Max.
What a thoroughly enjoyable caching experience.
We have long since learnt to expect a significant challenge when approaching a doheng cache and this multi lived entirely up to our expectations.
Although it was de ja vu by name, as we had previously found most of the existing cache destinations, sufficient updating posed us an entirely new experience at each of these ports of call!
We were blessed with the perfect weather conditions for searching in this lovely bush environment and reiterate this geo project deserves a favourite from us for not only the challenges but for the quality of workmanship involved.
Thank you doheng for another very worthy contribution to the Mildura caching scene which will no doubt provide significant challenges to many future geo searchers.
Cheers,
from Romax.
