Wow, a decoy!This cache is evil!However, quickly found when stumped!Log is very well protected.TFTC
Stopping off to grab a few hides while passing through. This was a clever little hide, that nearly had me stumped but happy have my name added to log.Thanks sixy2sue for placing the cache and doing the maintenance needed, so we can find this cache.
Found with gwd.aussie and Sharon14. This cache was one of a few we grab on our way to cache the Grand Ridge Rail Trail. Thanks sixy2sue
Found on the way to find some lunch, and than to ride a rail trail.Out caching with Sharon14 & D@geoThank you for the cache sixy2sue
Hardest one I've found for awhile, tried ignoring the red herring, had shorts on si git cut by the cutting grass, called 5mins and I'm done , then bingo in the last place I looked, nature had taken over quite a bit, left a green diamond, good luck
14:18The final day of our time in Traralgon, we headed southward, largely among some previously solved curious puzzles and in amongst the time consuming and very challenging cleverly hidden caches. It is always good to think of the animals, particularly when you are in their territory. Another interestingly constructed cache and clever hide - FP for sure.Thanks to sixy2sue for placing this cache on the gameboard. 35802
Owner note: After a DNF on this one I thought I should go and check on it as it's not found very often.
It's still there in the original spot but perhaps more obscure than it would be if it was found often. I didn't open the cache to check the status of the log as it was getting dark and cold already, but the cache if definitely there.

Another DNF for today, searched in circles going with and against the clue. With qnd against the GPS but had to leave defeated.
The kids loved finally finding a big cache with plenty of rooms for swaps! We left heaps of extra swag. Thanks for bringing us to this beautiful neck of the woods and TFTC
Nearly had me stumped but after meeting and greeting many spiders was so determined. My frustration kicked in and found the gc . Excellent construction
This one sure had us 'stumped' until my partner saw something that looked a bit different.
Had us searching and about to give up! But we got there in the end, very good!
Thanks Sixy2sue, great idear for a cache
I wasn't stumped TFTC thanks for bringing me out here

Find #11042
I was off work for a week due to COVID-19, so I decided it would be a good day to go caching. I headed out to the Churchill area with beckNmonts for a fun day of caching.
Thanks to sixy2sue for the cache. TNLN.
Big things are continuing to happen! *Are you joining the fun again in 2020?*

ahomburg and I headed out this way today to see if we could find some previously solved puzzles and other trads between. Overall it was a successful day with no DNF’s. The variety of hides was great. Thanks for placing the cache sixy2sue. There are certainly lots of animal bones at this one!
We have around a 5 day gap in our caching calendar in March where we have found no caches, so with the likelihood of us being stuck at home for winter this year we decided to use some of our local as yet unfound caches to try and fill the gaps.
Thi as today's cache, just short drive down into the Yinnar South area where Mr SKI worked for around 14 years. We had not been out this way for some years, so we took the time to check out how things had changed, and they certainly had.
A nice quick, straightforward find.

With the amount of smoke covering the hills you'd think there was a fire nearby, but there isn't. The hills are visable without detail. Amazing
Stumbling through the Bush I finally found the cache. Had a false start initially due to a stuck compass and the flies are really bothersome. It seems I just smacked a berry thorn.into my leg mistaking it for a fly to. The cache is cleverly camouflaged.... not exactly where the hint says but in the area. I like it. Cache was found in good condition. The tb has been retrieved, ...As have hundreds of grass seeds in my socks. Tftv

This one almost got the better of me as I looked in the obvious locations around the GZ. The clue was a bit of a "furphy" (to use one of those old Aussie idioms) and just as I was about to give up . . . well, all I'll say is: *"don't get stumped!"*
Clever hide and one that I'm gonna add to my collection of favourites!

I should know better than to try putting my hands in holes I can't see into. I found it in a much better spot. TFTC!
This was our 1st stop for an afternoon with a few caches on the list. What a great hide, love the way this one was made and the trouble to keep the log dry. Kids made a swap and we were on our way.

This was in a nice bit of bush on the side road. A farmer on a quad bike came up to a gate not far from us, but headed off other way to home so there was no need to prepare a story about why we were there. A short trek through the bush led us to the cache.
Tftc 62sue. At a ritentherain pad. Should be more of them. A good hide this one but knew it had to be around somewhere. Week done. Now off up Whitelaws to see what else I can bag.
**# 20377** Found on a drive around the area while staying nearby.
Not many muggles around today and a few quick finds for a change.
A very good hide here, almost missed it.
Thanks for the cache sixy2sue,

Sorry about the late log. This one had us stumped. Very sneaky. Kryslazz had the find on this one. TFTC
Thought it was muggled until I read other logs and thought we needed to have a better look.... tricky hide... loved it and the effort you put into it. TFTC
This log is only to remove the red maintenance required spanner for this cache's profile. I didn't realise I needed to do it this way. I did maintenance on the cache earlier on in the year...
took a while to locate this one, with so many possible spots to search but after a bit of searching finally had cache in hand. TFTC
The log book is damp.
The cache wasn't in the position I remember it being hidden.
I moved it to close to where I remember it being hidden, although sixy2sue could check its location when she checks the log book.

This cache find took us completely by surprise. It wasn't where we expected it to be and it wasn't anything like we expected. A very lucky find for us today, with misschief18 and Bentley TB

Found easily enough, checked one stump and it wasn't that one, found it in the other. Took nothing, left nothing, thanks for the find
Firstly went to what I thought wad 2 a 'logical' hide, and nothing! Oh no, muggles, I thought. Had a bit of a think and a better look, and there it was. Great cache, love it!
Another one off my list today and once I had removed the resident spider webs I was able to fully appreciate this well-crafted container. Favourite point from me! Also glad that the only one that saw me bush bash in my ballet flats was a local dog! Thanks for the cache
Will add a favourite for the extra work put in for a cache. Walked past walked back signed and replaced.
Thanks sixty2sue FTC.

YAY - Found it Nice day for a drive to find a cache or two with my geobuddy, Jimmymaff. We found this one quickly. Great hide. Thanks sixy2sue for setting this one up. We had a few cache guardian cows watching over us as we searched for the hide - cows are such curious creaures
Ceebee2013 and I decided to go for a trip to this area as there was an un-logged cache nearby and we had temporarily succumbed to the 'FTF' mania. As we had to drive past this one we stopped by and found it. We were intrigued by the nearby pushbike which at first appeared to have recently suffered a flat tyre and was undergoing repairs. Then I noticed the stiff and rusty chain, this cannot be a recent mishap. Why is it still there? TFTC.
11/04/2015 - 3.30pm - No. 401 - 1st for the day - with dgfb33. Trip to attempt first to findat a nearby cache (a failure at that as it turns out) had us passing this cache. Like it! What a great idea. TFTC.
Neat hide and nice drive this afternoon grabbing a few caches. Thanks for setting this one up.
Just dropping off a TB 'Murkle the Turkle' to start its caching journey.

I have a sneaky suspicion that Murkle the Turkle might be the new name for the turtle key ring that I placed in the cache for FTF!!!
Go M the T! Hmmm... Turtles are renowned for being a bit slow though. Let's hope Murkle gets some assistance to move on!

It was dark and it was raining when I went searching for this cache.
I got a lot wetter than I should have but it was a good hide and I enjoyed the hunt
I took the FTF prize and will send it back out into world as a TB
A great first cache hide

'Scrat' visited your cache whilst on his Great Aussie Adventure.

After great plans of Kato Potato's and mine to dash down here on the 26th, it ended up being a solo effort on my part to try to snag the FTF prize and title. My son has swimming lessons in Churchill on Friday afternoons so I held out hope that the somewhat-remoteness of this cache would mean the FTF lasted that long. No logs were there when I left swimming and even better, the geohusband had come to swimming and taken the toddler home in his car, so I was free as a bird to hunt. I drove down familiar roads until I had to turn south-east, away from Boolarra - a caching ground I'd ransacked before. I took a wrong turn because I got all excited and thought I was a super navigatress but eventually got back on the right track. I found a very convenient place to park, hopped out and commenced the search. Tree cover did play a little havoc but the hint did drag my eyes to a particular place. Awesome hint - you had me stumped and I had a little fright peering in and seeing only muggle rubbish - surely it hasn't been muggled already OUT HERE?!?! In the end, I searched into the bush a little deeper, turned back to the original and spotted something that looked worthy of investigation. Sadly, I could see the FTF prize was gone so I became the second signature on the log. A very cleverly constructed piece of work, I'm quite impressed and it scores a favourite point from me. Well done sixy2sue on your first hide. Hopefully more to come.
