Found It!
I presume I've finished the series now? Or is there a number 2 somewhere?

TFTC Completed the whole walk and found all caches. Some were a challenge as the grass was thick and long. Luckily no snakes today.

A lovely walk

After a slight detour due to a family "emergency" we were now 'back on track' for day two of our four week holiday. By back on track we mean going a totally different way to that which we had planned so we are making it up as we go along.

By now we needed to stretch our legs and get some steps up on our respective step counters. What better way to do this than to complete this series.



**Wow** Not sure exactly we where expecting to find at the end but it certainly wasn't this picturesque lake.

Dr Owl was suggesting a weekend away to tackle some adventurous caches in a disputed area of Mexico and to spend some quality time with Muff1. Who was I to say no! Extensive use was made of the Muffmobile and Mrs Muff came along for the ride and to poke fun at our caching efforts.

Our first of the Apsley Nature Walk series. The late afternoon sunlight through the trees created interesting shadows and patches of colour.

Thanks for the cache jgc3.

Found by driving, not walking. However, the surroundings were lovely and the cache finds quick - even if Owl wasn't keen on the slope. (Damaged legs are not conducive to the outdoors!)

This cache was found as part of a 28 hour caching odyssey around the Wimmera and Upper South East with TT016. A total of 670 km was covered in the trusty old GQ Patrol on the way to 93 cache finds. Caches collected included the Rusty Rail Series and the SA or VIC? puzzles, which were all found at night!

The last of the jgc3 Nature Walk series. Recovered far quicker than our last effort!

I'd been around here before but never had time to do it. I think it was bucketing this time last year so we had to give them a miss. But not today. A quick look and then another look had us locate the caches without too many dramas. Very dry and not a drop in the lake.

Thanks to jgc3 and clear skies from TeamAstro. [^]

We've been through Apsley a few times now, but either was late or bad weather to go for a walk previously.
Today we swung via this litte trail on our way to Horsham.
A nice walk in the park, however very dry and no water in the lake either!Sad
All were found easily, although a couple had wayward co-ords that the hint helped with.

Travelling homeward: Naracoorte SA to St Leonards Vic multiple breaks and lots of smilies in 12 hours. We spent around half an hour riding this nature walk, we saw kangaroos, kookaburras, parrots and heard corellas as we visited each of the caches.

Our thanks to jgc3 for creating this interesting trail.

Find # 2404 @ 1108 H

I was off on my biggest, single day, road trip. I left home at just after 7am and didn't get home until just after 11pm. I ended up with just over 670ks travelled, 29 smilies one being and event, and 3 Trig point discoveries, this included even heading interstate for 3 grabs.
There was many sights to see and even the odd fence jump for caches or photos. I think I managed to see every colour of mud that Western Victoria has on offer and I have a nice collection of it now in my drive way. I even had my pushbike on board and ended up peddling 5ks for 6 finds.

The main reason for my bike coming along was to save time and ride this small trail of caches. and boy was I glad I did. I don't think I could have gotten in to the lake with my ute... all that sand, I would have beached it.

It was a great day for a ride in the bush and I was happy to be seeing some country side I would have not seen if it was not for this trail.

A nice quick find during our walk along the trail, however our pen had died halfway through this walk so I had to scratch it in to the log book!
Sorry about that.

#10 of 12 finds today. So glad these caches drew attention to this nature walk. This is the sort of walk I love to do to break the journey when we are travelling, but I rarely find them. A very pleasant walk today and this was a pretty easy find. TNLN SL TFTC jgc3

Oooh !! I found the start of the walk in towne.
But it was a bit warm, and late in the day to go for a longish walk Red Face
So I followed a sandy trail into the reserve and that led me close to GZ [:o]

With the geomobile abandoned in the sandy surrounds of the lake, I wandered off through the scrub to find GZ and a cache Big Grin

Happy with that find, I could not resist a bit of a stroll after all, to find a couple of nearby caches Smile
So much for it being too hot !!
Which it was, but that didn't stop me [:o)]

TFTC and reason to visit this beaut bit of hidden bushland [^]

De ja vue, parked in the exact place we had parked when we did a near by cache. Spotted a munzee but low and behold munzee kept telling me my login was incorrect so there it sits until another day. SL TFTC

A lovely morning for a beautiful walk with upsanddowns and my geo family. Made it to all 5 in this series before the weather changed to a windy and wet afternoon. Highlight on this walk was the echidna.

In Naracoorte for the BLE this weekend and thought we'd snag a few caches along the way
A nice walk here this afternoon, although Mrs KQ thought she'd be clever and find a short cut back...needless to say she needed Mr KQ to come rescue her haha

In Naracoorte SA for the BLE and we noticed a number of unclaimed caches along the Aspley Nature Walk that hadn't been found. Donnazev and I rushed out and managed to claim a number of FTFs. This one was number 4 for the day.
