Awesome we found our 30th cache. Had trouble signing this cache because it was water logged and damaged.

Needs maintenance please. Thanks for the cache

Nice quick find! Needs some maintenance tho. (Log was found on the ground)

This geocacher reported that the container is damaged.

Nice easy find. Needs a bit of maintenance tho.

Got it. Im guessing the trees hv done alot of growing since this was hidden.

With lisyb. Maybe now is a good time to say we are not that fond of nature & bush walking

Found it thru the spiky plant

With giraffe_legs

I can honestly say that I was careful not to damage any of the new plants. Wish I could say the reverse was true. Stepping over one, slipped on the wet bark and banged my leg into a large branch with the result of tree fine, leg already bruised, swollen and bleeding.
But still have to say thanks for the cache Cathylmorgan & julz76.
Hunter

Edit - Cache 345

Our prime purpose for coming to this area was to find the cache "Peta Pate's Toolbox" because we needed a cache with a particular attribute to meet the requirements for a challenge, This cache was visited along the way.

Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks cathylmorgan and Julz76 for the cache.

Bit of a scramble but got there in the end

Clever hide! Looked at it for ages before I twigged!
TFTC

Very clever hide thanks for the fun caches

Loving this walk

Nice easy find with the Geodogs

Hard find

Great camo, nice little hide. Always great to sign a fresh logbook too! Tftc.

Found by Echo! (Echo 5 - Spice 3)

Had to crack the hint to come up with the find on this one.

("\(0o0)/") Thanks cathylmorgan for the caching fun!

Decided to get on the bike and hit the peninsula link trail and pick up some unloved caches by me. This was staring right at me I don't know why it took me so long to discover . TFTC

Out for a bike ride with WeRAmused. She stands back and laughs at me walking in circles until the penny drops. Log signed, all good. TFTC

No pen

Got my road bike back from being serviced and rode to work today. Went the extra distance to pick up this cache. Nice straight forward one thanks to the title. Have a nice day. TFTC

The hint on this so have it away lol thanks for the hide

Girls day out on the bikes today for Mrs Team Smokey-Bear and I.
Actually a code of one of our products at work. Do the co's also work in veterinary medicine industry?

Having a solo bike ride today and seeing what turns up. Walked around for a little while but soon found the obvious. TFTC

Took me a while, nice cache

Thanks for making this series great cache nice bike ride with geojill_11 and my dad 4bait tftc

Nice hide loved the bike ride TFTC

Out for a long bike ride with Mark9375 and 4bait. Quick find. Thanks Cathylmorgan

As per previous finder's log; I've seen this type of camo before so a quick find....

Find #1999

Needed three finds today to set me up for cache number 2k at the Awards event tomorrow. I had seen these but they were a little to far for me to get on a work lunchtime. Today I had a little more time on my hands and having parked down near the golf club and walked out I worked my way southwards to this one. I have seen similar camo before so was lucky to spot this one quickly. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache cathylmorgan and for this great series.

Quick find with tassie expat. Tftc

Amazing how quickly housework can get done when geocaching is mentioned! Out with frmen1 for a walk. A very quick find. Signed initials only. A bit wet in the area, but log was dry. TFTC

A quick find on a nice series on a Saturday morning.. Tftc

Started at Skye Road and headed north for a late afternoon walk along the PLT taking the opportunity of collecting a few caches on the way. One or two I was muggled off by cyclists or fellow walkers but was very happy with the standard of caches and hides. About here I realised I had misplaced a pair of sunglasses. Some things are expendable I guess! Many thanx to cathylmorgan

#1,136

Interesting hide. TFTC

A brilliant series of unusual caches!

Quick grab. Managed to avoid most the prickles TFTC

This has us searching for a while we were about 10m out which is nothing new for our dodgy phone. Eventually found it using our geo senses. Really like this one

Found with Eartheddivine and GeoJulz. I liked looking for this one and going up and down the hill

Found with Eartheddivine and GeoRo11. was fun climbing the hill

We decided to cache the section of the PLT between Skye Road and the Pines end towards Ballarto Road. We sort of guessed what we'd be looking for here and Petal was soon onto it and signed the log. A nice simple find here.

TFTC and placement cathylmorgan.

Had a great afternoon cruising along the PLT, it was much nicer than I thought it would be.
The name of this one pointed us straight to it. It also introduced us to the very prickly flora along this track that was going to be our nemesis while searching along the track. Found and left the log in good condition. TFTC.

Found with Eartheddivine and GeoJulz. Today I learnt that numerals are numbers and alpha is for letters. I cant wait to tell my kinder teacher

Number 11, Has to walk through the sticky bushes on this one nice and easy after that TFTC

Was just reading about this sort of thing the other day. First time I've seen it in the field! Sneaky. Approached from the wrong angle initially so I didn't detect it for ages. Log could use some attention. Thanks cathylmorgan!

Nice. Thank you

Nice cache.

Very clever!

So cool

Cool cache

Found it but the spider webs creeper me out too much to write on it

A quick find on dusk. We were surprised with the lack of Muggles which made recovery very easy.; only met two Muggles on wheels on our walk. TFTC.

I liked this cache, it looks like it hadnt been found in a while, very nice hide

We searched, found the hint but didn't get it! Then geo mum got it!!!very subtle!! Tftc

Not one for the arachnophobes!

Thanks for the cache love these bike trail ones

Took some time, well done.

After looking for this on an earlier occasion I cannot belive how I missed it. Out to get my 400th today. This makes 399.

Straight to this one. Log filled and back again got the next reader. A bit slippery coming down to the path as it was raining.

We found this cache today at 3:55pm as number 14 of 19 on our Follow the Freeway Saturday Afternoon. We walked backwards now to this available cache but bypassed quite a few others due to their possible unavailabliity. I do like this type of hide. Thanks from D & H B-A.

Walking at dusk, with no-one around, I was soon signing the clever cache. Thanks cathylmorgan.

Tftc. Really good hide.

A good quick find on our PLT walk this afternoon.

Have seen these before so this was a quicky at 3:05pm.
thanks cathylmorgan & julz76

Very clever hide. Thanks for driving me crazy trying to find this one. Thanks to geo daughter for telling me at least 5 times, " dad, maybe it is that thing up there...."
Parents... listen to your kids! LOL

TFTC

Found with Pickle G on a hit on the Peninsula Link Trail. TFTC. Like this one. Different style

Found with Team Clarky on a peninsula link cache day! Logbook full so couldn't sign cache, needs maintanence. Tftc!!!

Very clever hide - loved it!

Nice hide! SL TFTC

Great hide TFTC

Like the style. Nice hide tftc

I've been past here plenty of times knowing there were caches along the trail but never noticed this one! D'oh!
- Logbag getting a bit tatty.

Found with Gunks on bike, TFTC.

A second bike ride adventure for the week with PopTopPete and we tackled the new Peninsula link. Our finds were well into the double figures, unfortunatly a number of caches do need some maintenance as noted separately but still a great night out. TFTC's!!!

Really good

Great hide! TFTC . -nV!

Spotted this one from a distance away but had to wait for passing cyclists to grab it.. Plastic bag needs replacing.

Wow amazing one

Nice easy find.

Nice hide TFTC

I should congratulate the person who did this one. I looked for 10 minutes. I found it and slapped myself. TFTC.

Tftc. Easy sound on a beautiful thursday afternoon

Don't really understand the clue but yolo we found it. Still no pen due to earlier mugging but that's cool. No muggles about to bash

Could not find it on the first pass but found it on the way back

Looked on our way up the trail, but failed to find it... decided to look again on the way back..

Feeling frustrated about still not finding it, decided to just sit and think... and then it DAWNED on me!!!

Awesome spot... very awesome!

Took awhile but got it clever hide FAV...

liked the hhide.
Thanks Cathylmorgan.
Chiefton.

Walking along the PLT yet again, lovely day for it.

Finally found it with a little help from Cathylmorgan

TFTF!

Had me guessing for a few minutes as I thought I had discovered the alpha numeric & it wasn't at all. Awesome hide guys. TFTC SL

I had done a lot of the PLT caches on two days in the last week, and with such fantastic weather, I couldn't resist completing the series today. I looked for a while for this one, but failed to find it. After a call to Biggles Bear, I knew what to look for, but it still didn't help. After a while, I moved on to another couple of PLT caches. On my way back to the car, I tried again. This time I was successful.

Nicely hiddedn Thanks for the cache.

Found 10:55, after a brief search.

TNLN, thanks cathylmorgan.

Not sure what I was looking for here. GPS had me at the sound barrier then at the path. Could the CO check that this is still in place. Thanks.

Horrible conditions to find this in I think.

VERY cloudy, the metal didn't help the GPS and I'm just not sure where/what this one's meant to be.

If it's still there, it sounds like a nice find

# 3762. Robmc and I headed down this way to make the most of the winter sunshine and lovely day to do some of the PLT. We parked at this end so we could head north and return with a tail wind (hopefully).

This one led us a merry dance for a while. I kept on telling Rob where to look but his GPS wanted to take him further away. Somewhere along the line this one has gone from being hidden in plain view to being hidden from view and it was pure luck that got me there in the end. Replaced as found so it might be worth checking to see where you want it to be placed. TFTC

It looked like the best day of the week, so we got the deadly treadlies out, and headed down to the Peninsula Link Trail. Bettyboo3747 and I joined many other bike riders (and walkers) using this trail today.
Seeing there was supposed to be a northerly wind we started on the southern end so we would have a tail wind coming home. Of course the wind turned as we were coming back!
This took us a little while to find as it definitely wasn't hidden in plain sight - in fact, it was well hidden.
The big walls were giving the GPSr a bit of a heart attack too.
BB eventually located the familiar container.
Thanks, Robmc.

3rd for the day on a bike ride with the girls... Found it. Tftc..
