Bye bye.

Hmm, bit tricky as the signal was all over the place but think I had the right spot but danged if I could find the blighter

Probably deep in the detritus. Most likely to be checked in June.

Parked the car nearby here for my big day of trekking for remote caches. Had a look for this one before i set off, no luck so had another go upon my return. But GPS was all over the shop, criss crossing the road, and loads of undergrowth now so came up blank after an extensive 30 min search, Sure its there somewhere! Maybe try another day. TFTC.

My geopartner and I headed to the country with some freestyle caches along the way.

GPS had my criss crossing the road then my geosense kicked in and I found it.

Thanks to Paul_the_Hippy for the placement, fun and adventure.

TFTC! ️

Day Road Trip: Home-Healesville-MtDonnaBuang- **[AcheronWay]** -StFillans-Buxton-CathederalRangeSP-Taggerty-Rubicon-Home

Acheron River flows north from here until it joins with the Goulburn River just south of Alexandra.
From there, the now Goulburn River heads north though Seymour, Nagambie, Shepparton before joining the (once mighty) Murray River just east of Echuca. Hmmm. Interesting.

Found easily with our geocaching pals.

Out for a day of caching and sightseeing with Wetjala and Mrs Biggles in an area away from the bushfires. After travelling along the Donna Buang Road we turned onto the Acheron Way and this was the eighth of many caches for the day. With the help of the hint it was Mrs Pooky who made the easy find. TFTC.

Nice easy cache. Interested now what the content of this cache must have tasted, looks delicious ??

On my way back from holiday in NL with Lekker_Ding we camped and cached our way around Warburton and Marysville and had some great experiences and found some great caches. Thanks for hiding this one

Nice easy find

Short tree

took a while

Easy find while out giving the new beast a run in the hills.

Nice one

Find no. 1637

Easter Sunday and looking for a great place for a drive in the mountains. Beautiful scenery and a cache or two... today's trip ticked all the boxes!

Thanks to Paul the hippy for placing this cache.

Managed a quick find before heading for home after tackling the cache just up the hill a bit, Mixing with the knobs. This one was a quick find, thanks to spot on co-ord's, thanks Paul the Hippy for the hide, nice area to visit too!

A quick P&G to add to our growing collection of smilies out this way. Seems to be a popular little road going by the number of muggle vehicles passing by.

Thanks Paul the Hippy for a reason to stop at the Gap. We always enjoy learning from your information and the places that your caches bring us to. Found the new container a little away from the location. Have placed it better hidden, where intended.

Nice quick find on the way home from eildon

We searched high and low for this one, noticing a few fresh'ish cuts to some close-by tree branches and wondered if this work had disturbed the cache. It was found on the ground with no lid and just the log. We substituted with a Mint Tin to help out here until a replacement that's better gets put here.

Thanks Paul the Hippy for this cache placement.

Found as we cache our way through the area with mcsee&petal today. After a bit of a search the log and lidless container were found on the ground near gz. mcsee&petal supplied a mint tin as a replacement container and the cache was re hidden to match the hint. Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.

Thanks for cache.

Sorry, we did find it, wrong button.

Wow, interesting place, thanks for the geography lesson in the notes. A quick find here. Thanks for the hide.

Out caching with friend craft26 and geofamilies.

It interesting that such a small distance separates where the rain will end up.
TFTC.

Found this one while out caching with Naccas and families. Lovely part of the country to spend a day.

After a few DNFs down the road, it was good to have a find. Thanks Paul.

Easy find. 22/03/2015 11:10 am Find #182

#1727 - Quick find by M as B was standing almost on top of it looking a bit too high. All part of the fun and challenges on our AroundOz bicycle tour. Thanks Paul the Hippy for the time and effort for this cache.

This area draws attention to itself with the sign and elevation. And now I know a little more about the way the rain falls. Thanks for the hide that brought me here.

Nice easy find while cycling from Narbethong to Warburton with a friend. TFTC!

I found this one today while chasing ° down the road. I figured grab a few caches let him get a bit further in front will mean less dust. This one was a much easier find than the last as the number of places to hide was pretty slim This is and always will be my favourite stage in the long gone Rally of Melbourne.

... and the second before I moved on to unloved caches. Container was wet inside.

Yes we found it container a little wet
Thanks

Found while exploring thanks

Found ages ago and just noticed I hadn't logged it Tftc

Found @ 8:30am, find # 3191.

Is was the start of another great days caching out in the bush with Biggles1024, with a mix of transportation to get us to the various locations and GZ's. ( car, bike, foot ).
he GPSr was starting to come to grips as too its location, it was taking a little while to settle but eventually had me in the right area, shortly after the cache was found.
Thanks to Paul the Hippy for placing this cache.

Another trip to Warburton and beyond with my caching partner, Stemicmitsar. Our transportation varied from car to bikes to good old Shank's Pony. The day dawned with the promise of fine weather and it was fine for all but the briefest of periods.
Our second find of the day. Much the same as it's sister cache just down the road.
A quick find thanks to the CO's instructions and were again on our way.

They don't come much more driveby than this.

Thanks Paul.

After reading a post on one of the geocaching Face Book groups about late logs, I did a Geosphere to GSAK export, looks like I forgot to log quiet a few caches, this is one of them. Sorry for the delay. Thanks Paul_the_Hippy for the cache.

Found at 1:21 PM GAFF5 in the company of RebelActs. Parked right next to GZ and the cache was quickly located. Haven't been here for about 5 or 6 years and today it was quite wet.
Thanks Paul_the_Hippy.

Found with taurus1955 on a rainy day. Thankfully it was a quick find. Interesting description. TFTC

Found on a very wet, windy and cold day with misschief18

out with nanna.c for mothers day, a quick and easy find, tftc

enjoying a Mothers day outing with super-pops and nufrat, and picking up a few caches along Acheron way, A nice walk to this one tftc

Found @0949 #2695
Today's weather looked ideal for another run this time thru another area of the Warburton region. The target today was Mt Ritchie and a particular cache with a rare D/T combo for project 81. Started early (7am) being pick up by Ahomburg and after grabbing a much needed coffee and supplies in town we were ready to start the run. Today's run resulted in 22 finds and 2 years worth of unlovness. another epic run and big km's clocked on foot.

The next cache found and this took us much longer to find then it should have. Spent too much time looking on the wrong side of the road and in hindsight the cache details are clear. Couldn't help laughing when this was realised and cache was at last in hand. TFTC Paul the Hippy.

Time 9:54 AM

Today was my final training run (walk) for the Oxfam Trailwalker event that I was taking part in next Friday as part of team "Nightcaching Australia" and who better to do it with then my caching partner in crime, sedgwickDave for some walking, caching including some unloved caches. I headed out early picking up dave, then heading straight to Warburton where we grabbed coffee and baked goods from the bakery before heading for our first cache.

After finding the south, we headed on foot to this one. GZ had us in the middle of the road, but the hint seemed to provide many options, until I read it properly and we were soon on the right side and the cache was in hand.

Thanks to Paul the Hippy for the cache, TNLN.

Quick drive by. TFTC

*FTF* As Jacimarble said, we have the team log book sign thing down to a fine art. Between the three of us we can fairly quickly find the cache, open it, retrieve the log book, get all three stamps in there and replace it with everyone having their own role to play - my role? Stamp holder after stamping - important!?!

Round and round in circles, when we find a cache. Our speedy cache stamping system is highly organised. Teamwork!!! FTF#8
