MTY Rail Trail (Wattle ever will be, will be) Newborough, Victoria, Australia
By Poiter.h on 23-Mar-14. Waypoint GC50W59

Cache found after a short search. Thanks for the fun.Cleaning up Victoria with gridge98. We are on a mission this week. Completing twenty finds in Mexican local government areas is the challenge. With the log signed and the cache replaced it was time to leave. Onwards to the next cache. Woot, that is not to far.I would like to show my respect and acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the Land, and their continuing connection to it. I wish to pay my respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures; and to Elders past, present and emerging.I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count and winning that one hundred word diamond badge again. Somebody moved the goal posts. So many caches to find. So many caches to log. We find them, sign them and replace them.This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and an Apple iPhone 11 using the marvelous Cachly app. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs macro.Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun. Apologies for the generic part of the cache log. We do apologise for the generic logs. Thanks to all the cache owner for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke fr den Cache. Gracias por el cach.

A nice walk along the trail today, a good variety of hides that some need new co ords but other than that they are a bit of fun. Travelling around Victoria with Freddo for a week finding caches as we go. With two challenges on our radar we were in full force. All logs signed with our names or F+g98 for the smaller caches. Thanks for the cache

I had to delay another activity while waiting for the weather so went for a walk. Plenty on this track but opted for the higher D rating. Was fortunate to spot the camo quickly at GZ to make the find. We completed the signing duties and re hid. TFTC

The excitement on the youngest geokids face when he was first in the group to find this one was priceless. We suspected the camouflage and he went to work. So much fun, tftc!

Found

Great hiding spot

Checked all good to find

Good find

Very well camouflaged!!

MTY Rail Trail (Wattle ever will be, will be) was transferred from Poiter.h to user grannyapple64

Usually we walk/run the Moe end of the rail trail bit decided to grab some caches up this end today with the geodog in tow. Once the GPS settled I spotted this great container & had the log signed before we continued along the trail. Tftc

Love this rail trail. Chucking off big sticks as I go for cyclists. Arrived at GZ and immediately saw something. Very nice construction log all good. Nice and dry log, great coordinates.
Tftc Poiter.h

Took the puppies for a walk. Didn't take too long to find. Excellent cache! TFTC

Finally got to turn this one into a smiley. Such a long time In waiting to find this difficult one.
Tftc.

This one is sneaky good thing I am searching with a friend who's knows what to look for - we are both impressed. Round of applause.

Out again for a caching morning in the excellent company of Tiz13 with the target to find caches along the rail trail Surprised myself at how quickly i found this clever cache. A favourite point for this one TFTC Poiter.h

So I found a shotgun slug but no cache. No luck today

Only took about 5 minutes to find this one.
Can't find the other to for the life of me. TFTC

The Sun had come out and living in Baw Baw shire we were not locked down so I decided to head out for a day out of the house and a nice walk along the Moe - Yallourn rail trail, Gippsland has some great locations to visit and lots of caches that have not been found in awhile, so with my new caching gear gloves, sanitizer and mask. I had a great time touring around the area finding caches and exploring new places. gps was all over the place but I finally spotted it.

Thanks Poiter.h for the cache.

Clever little hide that was found after a little hunting with gps bumping around. Tftc

Love this hide. Was a bit worried after it hadn’t been found for a while that it might have been lost but the camouflage was great.

Amazing camo. plenty of dead wattles around. TFTC

My fellow cachers have previously found this cache. So I headed off down the path with one in tow with the other taking the vehicle to the other end so I could pick up the last few on this section of the trail. Started looking in the wrong spot but finally the coordinates settled down and I had the cache in hand.

This one seems to be a rare find... I guess most of the hunters don't botber to go this far into the trail? Or maybe they have trouble spotting the camo in the undergrowth
I have to warn people though... I did happen to see a snake in this area while I was on my way back to the car... please be careful where you walk in the warmer months!
TFTC!

Nice interesting hide, and I usually seem to struggle finding this CO's caches, but fortunately for me the cache container was the first thing that I looked at.
Found and signed the log at 11.55 am. Wow long time since anyone has found it.
Thanks for the cache Poiter H

I'll be Bach!

When you think you've find the right place, expand your search area. Ground level. Look for the clue not the title. Only found with some massive help from another cacher! Found by Kryslazz x

This one was tricky!!!! On he opposite side of the trail than the wattle tree we were searching. Gps was off... stupid phone. Found with Shai.marelle and help of a fellow geocatcher. Don't think we would have found it without it.

Quick find with luck and seeing something out of place tftc

I set off for an enjoyable walk along the trail to have a try at this final one. This is a clever and well disguised hide. After letting the satellites settle, I looked across and what do you know there it was. It was what I was expecting so I was pleased to be able to spot it.
Thanks for the cache.

Took awhile to find but we persisted

Awesome hide. Had us looking for ages

Sneaky hide tftc!!

~ PBF

Spotted this one quite easily... Still a clever hide though... Well done with the effort in its construction...

Thanks to the use of the Garmin GP, we were looking in the right spot. The phone was telling us somewhere completely different. Eagle-eyes Grassy Knoll spotted this one quite quickly.
TFTC

FINALLY poiter.h FINALLY yep thats right this rail trail is done and dusted. After numerous attempts trying to find this sneaky little sucked it was done. With a few choice words as i was walking up to this one. Just letting the wombats and rabbits know how much I hated this cache. FINALLY i found this sneaky little tricky thing did a few happy dances before signing the log. Defiantly drove me crazy thats for sure. Tftc poiter you sneaky sneaky person

Like this 1 and the way you think. Good 1

We looked for this one up down and everywhere we stopped on the way back for another and grannygeo64 yells found well hidden cache tftc found with cpjex grannygeo64 and suzibound

Decided to have another look on the way back in our walk with fellow cachers. Excuse the french.....!@$/ sneaky! Glad to finally have a log on this one. Tyftc.

Out cache"n the rail trail with cjperx , grannygeo64 & apple460

If only you knew what we called you today poiter.h
TFTC & thanks for the series
s one what a relief
Tftc

Went and did this one with apple460, cjprex and suzibound well after looking everywhere we finally found it very clever sneaky hide tftc so happy that I finally found this one

I went and checked on the cache today, and all is well.

Due to the number of DNF's to finds, I have decided to bump the D rating up by 1/2 a star.

Happy Geocaching

Poiter.h

Defeated again today by this one. This part of the trail looks like a horror movie murder seen hopefully this sucker made it may wait to do this one again maybe ill stalk the co

Didn't have any luck here today.. Searched for a while but just couldn't find it

After getting home to log all these im a currently shaking my head at my geo partner who read the hint but somehow managed to swap a word out for another looks like ill be going back down with the right hint this time

Couldn't read today being a granny will be back with lilmissgeo

Found this one quite quick after looking in the cache at the items and reading the clue I thought to myself what would I do and was spot on
Thanks Peter yes a favourite

A great day out caching with SQAU.
We headed west to find new caches.

This is the 8th cache of the day.

This is my 1213th cache all up.

Thank you for the hide Poiter.h

Out on a sunny day caching with gwd.aussie
Great walking trail
Good hide
Thanks poiter.h

After ringing poiter.h and telling him I was going to do the rest of the rail trail he said he would meet me and come along for the walk. Had the cache owner watching me and giving me nothing, but finally found the well hidden cache. Thanks poiter.h for the cache.

We searched and we searched. All the trees began to look the same! Read the hint, read the logs and then Mrs SKI came up with the goods in a place where I had already looked.
Thank goodness for her eagle eyes. And it is just like one of our hides.
TOOK A WHILE!
TFTC

The call of the Rail Trail got to us, so BettyBoo3747 and I loaded up the deadly treadlies and set off for Moe and the MTY trail.
We checked out this one on the way up the trail and again on the way back, but no cache to be found for us today.
I guess we stuck around toooo long.
Thanks, Robmc.

We came we searched, we continued on and searched again on the return ride. No luck, no deal, no dice. Nemesis cache for us today dammit.

Fortunately didn't have to record a DNF and made the nice find without to much trouble. Thanks Poiter h.

It was a year since we originally rode this rail trail. Today we returned to some more recent and some very challenging hides. We were determined not to give up on this one, but were also worried that the cache might have been compromised by all the destruction at gz. Patience was wearing thin and we needed to call in a favour. After some confirmation that we were on "the right track" the cache was quickly located. This was a tricky one Poiter.h!! Thanks for a great challenge.

Good day out I recon (caching of course)

A plan was made to head off to the valley today for a full days caching with Bright Beavers, Dunko and JT123. We all had a great day finding a wonderful array of cache types and cunning hides while covering quite a number of Kilometres. Many thanks to Poiter.h for the effort and placement of this cache TNLN SL

Another day and opportunity for caching with friends. Today my caching buddy and I were in company with the Bright Beavers and JT123. We had a great day finding many types of hides and travelling quite a long way into the bargin! Great day had by all. Thanks to Poiter.h TNLN

A very tricky hide, tftc

Well that's the rail trail done for me who wood have thought the clue was in the name great hide Pete thanks for that need some more put out now in Moe

2nd dnf. These caches drive me nuts!!

Ugh, this was a hard slog. My gps took me about seven metres from the eventual cache, Kato Potato's GPS just went berserk so we gave up on it. In the end I climbed up a bit, scratched around, saw what we think was evidence of previous searches and almost gave up. Something drew Kato back up the trail, the way we'd come, and she shouted out "No WAY". Then she showed me something I wouldn't have noticed, tucked away well, and so subtle I can see why there's rarely a find here. TFTC Poiter.h, I'm so glad Kato was with me otherwise it'd be a DNF.

On our afternoon of freedom from kids kyabbott and I were determined to knock over this end of the rail trail today so, only slightly daunted by the number of DNFs previously logged we tackled this one with gusto. Unfortunately we almost gave up. Then I spotted something that fit with the clue and went in to investigate. Sneaky sneaky! Took some effort to extract the log but there was a fair amount of fist pumping that went on when we discovered we were second to find in all the time this one has been online. So satisfying. Favourite point from me. TFTC Poiter, we love your trail!

Still not found must be a tricky one

getting sick of looking in trees, and even with the clues in the name it eluded us

No luck today, we stuck around for a while but couldn't find it. Maybe next time.

Didn't find this one today started to run out of day light and started to rain . The GPS was trying to take us up to the next level of the bank but my gut feeling was still on the rail trail in the wattle trees .Will have to come back again. TFT hide anyway Poiter

**** FTF **** Got the little bludger this time,the gpsr was telling me a different story today. Thanks poiterh FTC.

wattle ever will be won't be today, must have stuck around to long and got a DNF. Thanks poiterh for the hunt.
