Out with Lukie, Sami and Vanessa cleaning up a few that we had solved.
A nice quick find here.
Shame you had to archive this one, need more variety in the area...
Thanks Tomo134 & Big_Beno

Was out tonight with the gang and i had this one waiting for ages. i noticed it was archived and i wanted to see if the final was there and boom TFTC. awesome setup hope to see it back up soon.
Sory to all those that didn't get to find this cache, but it has come to an end.
*May consider putting another one of these out there in the future, but at the moment, it's all to much.
Thanks for all those fav points and nice comments about this cache.

Will watch and see if any maintenance issues are resolved.

We were heading to the 20,000 Between Us Event with micaparamedic and left a bit earlier to try and find a few on the way.
We enjoyed the way you have put this together and how easy it was to get the required information from the comfort of the warm car.
We were soon heading to GZ where after a little walk among some very large houses we were adding our names to the log.
Many thanks Tomo 134 & Big_Beno for an interesting multi.

The 20,000 between us event was Team Crackers and my goal today, a few caches prior to and after were completed, assisting Team Crackers in the Puzzle and Multi challenge caches. As I wasn't doing those challenges at this time, I basically tagged along with some input with calculations, finding information at waypoints and ultimately finding a few of the hides.
Many thanks Tomo134 for placing this cache .

First stop on a caching morning that took Hera and I (plus one sick child) all over the place. I was in absolute awe of the way the coords were revealed. My little mind boggles as I try to work out where you even begin to set that up!
We tackled a few other caches before not being able to resist finding GZ and ticking this off completely. We found the cache easily and signed the log.
I'm awarding a fave to this for such a cool idea with the first stage. Nicely done!

Awesome WP1 - the first time I've seen this method used to give the next clue. Took a lazy drive through the suburbs picking up a variety of other caches on the way to GZ.
I polished off the first stage of this while completing a nearby traditional cache. A neat little concept which I haven't had the pleasure of utilising before! I wonder who occasionally stumbles upon this station by accident?
Today I was also in the GZ area, being a bit closer to home, and after remarking on the bit of suburbia I knew nothing about, I was soon at GZ finding the easily located cache.

This one had been looking at me on my home screen for ages!! Today was the day to go an grab it. Just as well I had allocated an afternoon free because it is not close to the first WP. And of course, I had to stop off and get some others on the way to gZ. Thanks so much gents. Love it.
During the time I was delivery junk mail I stopped to check this one out. I was not sure of the numbers I was searching for, but I was in luck that Tomo134 emerged to give me some assistance. Back to the car and moved the dial. I was in luck again as it was right on my way home. Did a quick search but run out of time. Today I returned to the site and it was a quick find. Interesting area.
It gets a favourite from me for its originality. Thanks for being thereTomo

This cache was recommended by a friend, and we loved how the coords were transmitted at WP1. I couldn't resist going for GZ, and took the drive to sign the log. Great idea, thanks a lot, Tomo134.
We found this cache today at 11:55am as number 3 of 9 on our Angels Lunchtime Caching Expedition. I got the information for this one many months ago and finally got to head over to claim my prize. "H" spotted this one. Loved the novelty of WP1. Thanks from D, H & A B-A.

So this began as a simple cache to do on way home from work. However I was so impressed with WP1 that I went straight home, waited for 88andy88, then took him to WP1 to experience it too.
We then both headed to gz and quickly retrieved the cache. Excited to also retrieve the Geocoin.
SL Thanks Tomo & Beno!

Very nice night out with OzHockeyChick and an extemely interesting waypoint on this one . Tricky and clever. TFTC
Out for my quick cache for the evening to keep the numbers kicking along.
Picked up the final coordinates last night but was going in the wrong direction and so it had to wait for tonight. Great cache concept, good hide also.

Awesome cache. Struggled with finding 108.0 until I had a brain wave, well a different type of wave I guess.

This turned out to be a really different caching experience, absolutely loved it.
It all worked so well and was a thrill when I found the container. A favourite for sure.

Found this a long time ago, on a night run with atsmug, sorry again for another late log. thanks for the cache, we had a lot of fun with this cache , very clever ))
Find number #800 ! Out tonight with pa_i_ge to grab a few caches and targeted this one as a milestone cache, a wonderful idea well executed. Not much rock n roll on tonight but the DJ was worth listening to then it was off to the cache which was a lot further than I expected so we did a Cook's tour to grab the couple of caches I needed to ensure that this was 800. Grabbed the TB and meant to drop one in , but left it in the car.. Thanks for the multicache, fav point for this
First for the new year and a worthy one too. It took me on my way home so thanks Tomo134. I don't know how you do it, but it certainly works! Definitely a star.
With a change in the kids plans I had a couple of hours free today and the weather was great so off I went to find a few that were in my close to home zone.
My normal caching buddy told me to check this cache out so today was the day. Great concept for a cache and a nice easy find once at GZ. I notice he hasn't picked this up yet though the lazy...
A favourite from me.
Thanks Tomo134 for the cache, the hunt and the fun.

I visited the published coordinates earlier this week with 4evatinks and was blown away by this cache. Have never seen this type of geocaching before!
Switched on my radio and after getting necessary information, we headed off to find other caches nearby.
Tonight after work, I headed to the new GZ coordinates. The neighbours dog barked up a stink but thankfully I was able to quickly locate the cache under torchlight. Lots of bugs nearby and it was all rather horrible trying to sign the log with insects landing all over.
SL, visited my TB & replaced. TFTC!!

What a great concept for a multi, and a great little drive through some areas I had no Idea existed and the size of the houses near GZ OMG feel a bit under dressed walking around this area, but this gets a fav point from me even though the cache was easy to find at the end the first stage was just awesome.
I have done one of these before, about 6 years ago in Adelaide, although I am blowed if I can find it now. That time the final was in the wrong direction and it took about a year before I was back there to grab it.
This one was quite clear although I checked it twice to be sure because it was where it was. It was also in the wrong direction and might have suffered the same fate as the previous one except that I was heading back that way later on. An easy find at GZ and I was left quite surprised at how quite the location was despite the proximity of traffic.
All in all a good job thanks.

What a fantastic concept! This was a really great multi-cache to end our Melbourne trip on. I was very impressed with the idea. Found with Mitchaaa. TFTC!

Well wasn't this fun! I had seen this cache published and finally found the time to take the challenge.
I went to the coordinates, quietened my inner environment and got myself in tune... Suddenly I was enlightened. I took a brief deviation to grab two other caches nearby, but then I was on my quest.
I took the most direct route, which was by no means the quickest. The chosen path had me travel some windy, secluded streets, that climbed up and over some big hills and down into some quiet valleys with single lane bridges.
However, the journey was eventually over and it was a short walk to the final location. With the cache soon in hand in the dying light of the day, I signed the log, replaced the hide and headed home.
Thanks for a fun adventure, Tomo134. +1 Fav point.

HOW COOL,
I have never done a cache like this before, a fav point for you guys.
I went the roller coaster way and ended up very close to where I did my first cache for the morning.
LOVED IT [:X]

With MMelb working all day and the weather looking reasonable in the morning we set off on our "How to turn 10km into 100km" adventure. We are wanting to clear our 10km zone & as most of the caches left are in the extremes there is quite a distance to cover lol (or tricky puzzles yet to be solved)
This was the first for the morning and as per our previous log we had already done the very cool stage 1. So today it was GZ with the first of a few hills to climb, this one being short & easy. Cache was nice easy find with good co-rods.
TFTC Tomo134 & BigBeno a Fave Point for the very cool stage 1 -GJMMelb

MMelb had been sick all of the last week of term and still isn't 100% so when muggle friends wanted to catch up we did a nice easy one in Ringwood then drove to the start of this one. Wow very cool!!! Unfortunately we didn't have time to finish it as our friends had to leave and the cache was in the wrong direction, but I just wanted to say what a very cool concept & we will find the actual cache asap
Found @ 10:11pm, find # 3373.
Out and about on this Friday night with Biggles1024, this time to Ringwood and beyond.
This one was one of the main reasons for being over in this area tonight, when this was first published, I notice the wireless beacon attribute, so I was keen to check it out.
We arrived at the posted coordinates and soon realised that we weren't looking for a chirp, but we were quickly on the right path so we soon had the final coordinates.
We headed off through the streets until we couldn't drive any closer, it was then a short up hill walk to GZ were the cache was found quickly.
Thanks to Tomo134 & Big_Beno for placing this cache.

Find #1323
Another Friday night of caching with Stemicmitsar. We headed to Ringwood for some suburban caching in order to take a break from the bush caching we had pursued over the past few weeks.
This was one of the two caches that we were really targeting this week. The "wireless" beacon attribute initially lead us to think we would be finding a "Chirp" but that wasn't it. The information came through loud and clear and then it was a matter of navigating through the streets to GZ. We did this and a short walk across fairly long grass resulted in us making the find.
It's a novel way of delivering information and I'd love to know exactly how the CO has done it. I wonder if he'd be willing to share??
A favourite point from me for the 'wireless beacon'.

We were not too sure what to expect with this one this afternoon but once at wp1 we had a much clearer idea where wp2 was. After a bit of a drive, definitely not one to walk too, we came up with the cache. Fantastic concept Tomo 134 and Big Beno, worth a fave for sure.
Found with trailrunning on a trip to Geelong to clean up around 50 for the day/night, we did a few aound Melbourne on our way out and back as well, some Quality caches were found tonight. Thanks Tomo134 for the cache.
It's the Monday of the Queen's Birthday weekend and Rebel Acts and I want to travel to Geelong to clean up all the caches north of the Barwon River. While we were not successful in getting them all we were able to find 50 caches at a rate of 1 cache every 10 minutes. We also had a chance meeting with Ballarat team HIGHROD just before they left for home.
On a few occasions we used the help of the self-proclaimed Geelong Geocaching HQ (Bushfire) to help us along the way. While the weather was cold, the pace was enough to see me caching in a t-shirt for most of the day and night, until the fog descended of course.
A novel idea I've been toying with myself. First one in Melbourne I would expect. A favourite.
A great time was had and some really good caches discovered. Thanks to the CO's for their efforts. We will return..
