Well fixed up in Jan as it was left half sticking out to finding it muggled today.
You will have to look for other geocache hides as I have had enough of owning caches that suffer this fate.

Brilliant hide in what looks to be a brilliant park, on holiday's from Melbourne and staying just up the road. Love this cache and it gets a favorite from us.

Found by D on a glorious Sunday afternoon, although stealth is a challenge on a Sunday, this place is like Hay Street! Love the camo, great hide, thanks Smile

Height is definitely an advantage
Slowly finding al the little caches close to home.
This one was found on my way home to Work without to much trouble in a expected place.
The log is already torn but usable.

The new log is wet and tore when I tried to take it out, I tried to be careful but it got stuck Sad

Yep it's official. Only cachers are mad enough to be out on an Antarctic day like this. Definitely a tall persons delight. Log is soaking and unsignable. Tried to dry it off as best we could before replacing. Future loggers should put cache back upside down so water won't get in.
 
21-Jun-15
Replaced wet logs

Found it, Great camo. Had a little struggle reaching it. TFTC

Great idea for cache. Had to think what does not fit before locating. TFTC

Sent the geowife out to grab this one. Her arms aren't as long as mine, but she got it.

Log is full, didn't have anything suitable.

Found this easily and my long arms came in handy, the log is full sorry I couldn't replace it we are in mrs Helbrens car, maybe I should make a 2nd caching kit for her car haha tftc

The trouble with copy and pasting a descripton on all different logs gives the false impression you have to dig for this one. Iff you are digging you will be no where close.

Out with Jasenjanine on our fortnightly kid free day. We chose to do some park and grabs today seeing as it was going to be a hot one.
We had a pretty good run with 16/17 finds. Some of which had not been found in some time. Just goes to show a little patience (which is clearly not my strong suit, thanks Janine.) and a bit of digging will unearth the prize.
Thanks for the cache.
 
12-Mar-15
Headed out around this area for some kid free caching time with MNS13 today... MNS13 found this one before I could even get out of the car Smile

TFTC Allied Pranksters Big Grin Cache was in good condition.

Interesting Hide Thanks for the cache )
 
25-Feb-15
I was out and about on an early morning caching run and this one was on the list.

This was another quick find and at this time of the morning there were no muggles around Big Grin. I have seen this style of container before and quite like them so here a fave point from us [^]

Thought i knew what i was looking for. Some clues a little too cryptic for this cryptic lover. Tried various locations but came back to the mother lode and tried 'it' Voila! found it. Very nice camo....so matching.TFTC!
 
14-Jan-15
Out caching with Goorjus69 heading home and stopped past this one to make sure I got a cache for my calendar. A nice easy find here, only took me a few seconds to find it, which is rare for an AP cache. TFTC Allied Pranksters.

TFTC picking up some caches whilst in Perth. Another good hide here thanks
 
09-May-14
Bit of a quieter day on the road today gave me a chance to tackle some of the DNF's in the area.

Been here before as well, (must remember to log the DNF's). Expanded the search area today and spotted a likely culprit, had to use my geostick to retrieve the cache.

I couldn't place it back where it was, but it's close. Smile

(catch up log)

Out with Chwiliwr and Mistraluna doing some caches that we hadn't got to find yet.

Was a quick find at this one by the better half and I as Mistraluna had already found it the other day.

Thanks Allied Pranksters for the cache.

While in the area working, I decided to Scout this one out. Well being an ex scout was handy here as I am always prepared for a AP nasty cache. I quickly scanned the GeoTruck for a suitable tool to extract the cache. Once the tool was found it was an easy extraction and the nasty cache was sooon signed and replaced. A truly clever camo, where do you get these from, SL TFTC AP a fav from us...

Headed northwards this morning with the intention of visiting a friend, but she had an unexpected emergency to deal with, so what better to do with myself than find a cache or three. Quickly spotted this one. Retrieving it took a bit of ingenuity though. Lost a bit of bark in the process, but it was worth it. Thanks Allied Pranksters
 
10-Dec-13
While in the area sight-seeing, we picked up a few caches.
Waited for muggles to leave the area, and then made a quick grab.
A good hide, thanks for the cache, Allied Pranksters.

Nice easy find. The way I like them early in morning.

Looking for a nearby cache to plug a hole in my calendar. There was evidence of some cache creep..............

Thanks Allied Pranksters for the cache.

Final find in the area before retreating to a coffee shop for some cake. Another fantastically original cache in this massive parkland. Suspect the cache has crept slightly since it was a straightforward grab even for me. Thanks for the hide.
 
13-Oct-13
This one has been on my radar since it was published as the cache page caught my interest, at last I wrangled 4 kids into the car for todays cache adventure, keeping the streak alive.

I can not remember what ankle biter spotted it, but it was up to the big people to grab it Smile

Great camo AP as always, that makes three rippers in this park of yours, well done.

Out with OOH YEH to grab some caches in the area.
With our incredible shrinking machine the cache was soon in hand.
Unfortunately the shrinking didn't last long and by the time we returned to the car we had returned to our old selves.
Surprised

Out with skippy 46 today for a couple of hours of caching. found 13 out of 14 so not bad going since 8 of them were AP caches lol..... Spotted the cache quickly but the hard part was getting it as the gardener was doing some edging close to GZ and there was some muggles across the road in there driveway. Once the coast was clear we grabbed the cache but then had to wait again to replace it...Good hide TFTC Allied Pranksters
