Sorry to all cachers out there but i am archiving my caching the bush series because I feel as though it's hard keeping up to date with all my caches, Steve2398
Today has been a bit of a mixed bag of caching. I was stoked to be able to find 2 caches I'd previously DNF'd, including this one, but I added 3 more DNFs to the pile, so I hope to correct those in the future.
It didn't take me too long to track this one down today, in a spot I'm sure I looked in last time. Thanks for the cache steve2398!

School holidays rapidly coming to a close. Great weather encouraged me to head to the hills; somewhere I don't often visit since I'm not a huge fan of the bush. I appreciate the proximity of most of the hides to paths and also the generous sizing of the containers. Thanks steve2398.
I was able to do all this series except for the disabled one, and had a lovely wander through the bush to seek them out. This was the lucky last attacked, and made the approach from Welshpool Rd instead of coming down from Gilchrist Rd which turned out to be the right decision.
Thanks for the cache and for the series, steve2398.

Made the quick dash across the road from Mick Conti Park and wandered up the path for a easy find. TFTC steve2398
Had the chance again today to come up in the hills and try and track down some more of the 'Cashing in The Bush' series. After some relatively easy strolls along the well defined tracks I ended up finding three more. I think I have them all now except for number 7 which is temporally unavailable at the moment.
Had trouble finding the track to this one the other day when I was here. Drove more slowly along the road today and spied the access point. Parked up and after a short walk I was at GZ. A few places to hide a cache here but found it after about five minutes searching.

With a kid-free day today, I tagged along with OOH YEH to find a few caches... After finding the closest parking spot to this one, we set off along the path to GZ... The day had started to warm up now & we were huffing & puffing once we arrived at GZ [XX(]
Once we caught our breath, we commenced the search & quickly realised that the co-ords we going to be quite different to those listed... We gave a thorough search of a possible object, but it was Mr OOH YEH that widened the search further to come up with the prize
TFTC steve2398 I have added the co-ords that worked for us today...

out for a few hours of caching with jasenjanine. We knew the co-ords were out here and it still took a bit of searching to find the cache. We found the co-ords to be out by about 18 metres TFTC steve2398
I was caching in the Lesmurdie area today, but had planned to leave this series for another day - but this is another one that I decided to grab as I found myself very close to it with a place to pull over. My GPSr had GZ right next to the path, but I found the cache about 10 metres from the path ... sorry, I forgot to take coords tp post here ... but it was a quick find in the third place I looked - well hidden too.
Signed the log. Thanks for the hide steve2398

This was the hardest walk through the bush as the undergrowth was much thicker the way I walked to the cache than anywhere else I had been today. Found the cache without problems and then headed back to the car and managed to find even thicker bush on the way back.
Thanks steve2398 for the cache.

Unfortunately I couldn't find this one. I searched high and low, and expanded my search in all directions, but I just couldn't find this box.
If the coords are up to 18m out, could new ones be taken, or suggested by another finder? The hint was not very helpful in finding the cache, it just described the container type, not where it might be located.

We didn't spot this notification until late this arvo but with some time left before dark we drove up the hill for a look. We were met by a pack of HashHouseHarriers coming down the gravel track and stepped aside to let them pass. The GPSr had us close to the track so we concentrated our search in a few good hideyholes to no avail. We broadened the search pattern and made the find after another few minutes for a 2TF and grabbed the TB too.

**FTF** at 7.37am, Sitting at home waiting for the kettle to boil for my morning coffee and This cache notification came through, so I jumped into the car a headed towards the location. Parking is a little tricky in a sports car so it took awhile to find a parking spot, 4WD will be fine. I walked up the track which is up hill. I got to the location and it keep directing me to the fence line. I had a quick look around and noticed the obvious spot to hide. I found it quickly which is about 18m out in my co ords...left TB....TFTC
