Is this really art. Amazed at just how many of these spots are around. The paper had soggy ambitions.
Thanks to sirfoxly and *clear skies* from TeamAstro. Cache the planet!

Found wide open having been muggled by someone or something. The lid was nowhere to be seen. Having no replacement cache, I unfortunately had to just put the items back in and cover it up as best as possible.
Many thanks sirfoxly from the Wacky one

Gorgeous view this morning from the GZ, container may need replacing soon. Enjoyed the location. Tftc
This was day 67 of our trip out of Sydney to visit the southern states of Victoria and Tasmania and was day 25 of the Tasmanian part.
These carvings were obviously done with great skill are they are quite detailed and a great photo opportunity.. This was not a difficult cache to find as it is a familiar hide. After the log had been signed the cache was replaced where it was found. Thank you for bringing us to this area and thank you for placing this cache for us and others to find

Quick find on a lovely evening after a great day for caching. We saw a couple of seals here, out in the water feeding, made our day Got some happy snaps of the wood carvings, The cat was my favourite, sitting there all these years staring at the fish! This is a lovely area and we're enjoying our day's caching. Also looking forward to the event on Monday evening to meet and thank all the Tassie CO's who have added so much fun to our touring here TFTC fav point given for the location
We've now only got four weeks left of our six month stay (til the end of March '16) from the Kurrajong area, (Blue Mountains) NW of Sydney, to tour in the caravan and also visit our kids and grandkids in the Huon Valley On four previous visits before this visit, we were muggles, so we're having fun finding the caches we didn't even know were here!

We came to this point to enjoy nice fish and chips The car hadn't even stopped when the seagulls were on the bonnet of the car !!! Lovely carvings on the trees Easy find TFTC
What a great view from here, Tassie is full of little gems every where. It seems this cache has been found by a muggle and some swear words are written in the log book so if you have kids then parents may want to fill it in. We left a path tag as its only our second Tas cache - we have been to busy doing stuff to do much caching. This is part of 1 year lap of Aus and we have 7 weeks to enjoy Tas. Check out our travels at selkeadventures.com if you want to see what we have been up to. Thanks for the cache.
I quick flyby visit from the clan today during our northern sojourn. Found by one of the Geo Boys. Thanks for the history lesson and the view
TFTC quick find but I think some muggles may have found this and written all over the log.
We are holidaying in Tasmania for a while and are grabbing some caches whilst we are here.
Today we are heading inland and stopped to get this one on the way.
Cache was an easy find at the end of a long day.

These works of art are truly incredible. How so much detail can be carved with such an unwieldy implement is astounding. A potted history of the area permanently preserved in what would normally have been cut down and destroyed.
The cache was uncovered when I found it but I tucked it back in.

Found by the oldest male child while we all ate lunch nearby.
As always, quite windy here!
Thanks

Stopped here for the view as we ate lunch and watched the seals frolicking in the water then realised there was a cache here. Found in its camouflaged hide all safe and well. Followed up with photos of the chainsaw art.
We'd been sitting in the car having lunch, watching the waters rush past, when we spotted some seals frolicking in the water, chasing fish! Had a thoroughly enjoyable half hour watching them before heading over to GZ, happily out of muggle view, to find the neatly hidden cache, then going over to check out the top quality carvings. The container is a bit broken and should be replaced but contents are still fine. A favourite for the art and the seals. TFTC, sirfoxly. =^.^=
Quick trip to George Town and Low Head before heading off to Devenport to catch the Spirit to end our holiday in Tassie
Loved the carvings, loved Tassie!
Many thanx for the cache

Found while exploring George Town. Mr D stopped to take photos, I took the cache. Thanks for the hide.
Travelling around Australia and now in Tasmania!
Today we did some sightseeing around Low Head, oh and found a few caches too.
Beautiful clear sunny day, although the breeze was a bit chilly at times.
Wow muggles enjoying the afternoon sun. Lucky for us the cache was just out of their sight.

Another days touring and what better way of checking out an area than by spending it caching. We would love to watch this brilliant artist at work.
Thanks sirfoxly
Thanks sirfoxly
An easy find, a few tourist about doing a bit of whale watching such that none were too interested in what I was up to.. thanks..!!
Fortunately a very quick find which was just as well as the wind was strong and not pleasant to be out in. Thanks.
Fantastic bit of tree art near gz. We loved it and almost forgot we were here to find a cache. Our GPS decided to keep turning off so we have to rely on the smart phones for the weekend. This was a good hide in a lovely but very windy location. TFTC
We have returned from Canada to discover a few more Australian caches! What a great way to explore the Land Down Under" ...
Very impressive art work.
Thanks for sharing sirfoxly!

Another stop on today's geocachig tour along the Tamar river. It was a qick found. Thank you for this cache and cheers from Switzerland.
What a great sculpture! Thanks for showing it to us sirfoxly. Maybe one day they will attack the other tree stumps as well? The biting wind was now being joined by rain that was becoming a bit more serious by now so we had to make a quick sign and replace of the cache and make a dive back to the car.
Thanks for the cache sirfoxly.

A quick find after admiring the nearby chainsaw art and taking a few photos. The people at the table along a bit didn't have a clue what we were really up to! TFTC
Found with Hearse068, Zobo04 and Hearse068's geo child. It was a quick trip to tassie to do some sight seeing and geocaching. We had a great time in the 3 days that we had here. Started in Launceston made it to Swansee up to Bicheno, St Helens, Pyenganna, Bridport, George Town and back to Launceston. We found 50 odd caches in our time here and this was one of them. We made a quick find here at another historical site The art work is really groovy TFTC
Found with Gonefishen07, Zobo04 and my geo son on a quick trip to Tassie to do some sight seeing and some caching. The chainsaw art in the area is amazing. I found this one and the nearby munzee. SL TFTC
Found with Gonefishen07, Hears068 and my cuz. We came to tassie for a quick trip. Sightseeing and caching on the menu. We had a great time while here and will hopefully be back soon. Thanks to those that placed caches to make our holiday fun. TFTC

I have to say a very bold hide but a great little hiding hole for this cache to fit into. Was located soon after taking a few pics of the art here. Stamped and returned as found.
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.
