Big Tall Tree Mowbray, Tasmania, Australia
By Ryan00 on 16-May-15. Waypoint GC5VK12

Unfortunately, this big tall tree was removed as part of the highway upgrade and there aren't any spots around to rehide it. Thanks to all who found!

Hi Ryan00 thanks for the hide. This was our fourth traditional cache around Invermay and Mowbray this afternoon. Nice and easy find and all safe and dry at GZ. Thanks for investing in our pleasure!! Beautiful sunny day ideal for caching.

Medium level but under the tree

Last day in Launceston, out for a few caches. TFTC

I found the cache quite quickly. Wen I opened it though it smells very musty, some dampness has been there for a while.

Mrs frilk and I are on our annual kidless long weekend. We arrived last night and after a great night's rest we set off for a day of walking interspersed with some caching (that was her view...mine was caching interspersed with walking!).

A quick find. TNLN. TFTC.

Tftc BAD

With all the rain yesterday, I am so glad that I brought a change of footwear as a trudged my way to this cache. Arrived at GZ and was lucky enough to quickly spy the cache. SL TFTC Ryan00. Now for the walk back....

These roadside cachers are great when you can park so close, so it was a quick pop out of the car and an even faster search with goose coming up with the goods.
Thanks for the cache.

Myself and goose of gooseandegg planned a trip North into the badlands to get some caches to help with our hidden creatures finds, early start for a Saturday with me picking Goose up at around 7 O'clock even with a couple of stops along the way we made good time which helped us to clock up 42 finds on the Saturday and 24 on the Sunday before heading back to the civilised South, getting back in my drive at just gone 6pm with 580kms under my belt, 66 caches in 35 hours while not a bad haul is less than 2 an hour, I must try harder next time!

Found at 15:19 on 07/07/2018

The best caches I have found so far by type are:-

From our awkward parking at the previous cache , we made an awkward swing back on to the highway and were off again before we knew it for this cache. SSR went clockwise, I went anticlockwise and this time I found the cache. Another quick one thanks Ryan00

Hello Ryan00 thank you for the cache.

Another find in the dark.

I wanted to find some caches so I could get some Hidden Creatures souvenirs that I can proudly display on my profile page that no one will see.
I travelled up from Hobart for this search.

Easy find, great clue, left a swap cedar circle with message.

Cute beetle!

Found it, signed initials.

Doing the trail onto this one! Found tftc

Found it on a quitly place, only a lot of cars drove past.

A longish detour from the bike path took me to the BTT

Found it after a few orbits of the tree! TFTC

Hi there Ryan00.

We found your cache **"UGT - Big Tall Tree"** at 10:52:00 AM today. (This brings our total find count to 18551).

The original plan today was to log a random cache some distance from our camp site, and then find a few more caches using the "next closest" method. We started our journey in Mowbray and had a great day!

We ended up finding a variety of container types and sizes on our journey & found 6 caches (& DNF'd 1).

Thank you for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places to visit on our nomadic wander around Australia.

**Cache Condition:** The cache was soaked, we spent some time drying it out, but it still needs some "Owner TLC".
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

Bit damp under foot and in the cache. Its all still there. TFTC

Being a damp Sunday afternoon, we thought we'd do these with the geomobile instead of the bike as originally planned. A quick search at GZ, and we soon had the cache in hand. Off to the next one. Thanks Ryan00 for organising the cache and the UGT series.

Back home after being in Tassie for a holiday, now the daunting task of logging all our finds, sorting through the scraps of paper with notes on them.
Had a few days of sunshine, a lot of days of rain, ended up with just over 105 finds all up on this trip, and visited many tourist spots in the north of Tassie.

found this cache after a quiet night in Georgetown.
no muggles about. easy find.

thanks to the Ryan00 for this cache

Getting darker

This was a cool find but it was easy. Ty

Interesting.

Found it with PookiSportal

Found this with majortom, really enjoyed it. A nice selection of little treasures to look at and got to mark myself in the log.

Quick and easy find TFTC

easy find, but got taught not to be so cocky, looked at GPS and thought "I know where abouts that would be" and rode off it wasn't until I looked back and didn't see my cycling companion and checked GPS that I realised I rode right past it and had to ride back. TNLNSL

Thanks for the unintentional head start on this one Reverie! But I don't really think I needed the handicap advantage! Left a calling card and another toy car in this one, took nothing.

Nice and easy, log wasn't in zip lock bag so was wet. I put a new paper and zip lock in it. Tftc

Trolls for the win look closely

Lots of scrub under tree but found it.

The girlz from Crew got another!!!!

Quick find . cru had fun

Tftc it's a bit moist

Quite a stretch to get it from its hiding place, but got it easily enough in the end. TFTC

With GeoMaggie. TFTC.

Lady buy. Great. TFTC

Quick find. Log dry & signed. TFTC.

Easy find, TFTC

Last cache for the day, I will continue with the trail at a later date (also when the ground isn't so wet as I had to miss one!). Thanks for finally getting me out onto this pathway. And TFTC.

Camouflaged but found it.

Tried to find this one under the cover of darkness last week but unsurprisingly it didn't work for us. Back today to try and get this whole series of caches and it was a good start to get this one relatively easily TFTC!

Nice spot

TFTC

A nice breeze has just come up so we can do the trail Easy find TFTC

Back in Tassie finding caches that have been published since our last visit, this is one of them. An easy find.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Another set of caches to grab. Managed to park at certain spots between caches and then walk back and forth collecting them. Big tree, and lots of bark and stuff everywhere. TFTC.

Luckily the caches we tried from this series were fairly quick finds. Felt a bit conspicuous with all the traffic streaming past so decided to do the ostrich thing and pretend that if we couldn't see them then they couldn't see us. Must have worked as we were only tooted once! Will have to do the second part of this trail next time we're in town. TFTC

Easy find TFTC

Nice easy find. TFTC

Another pre wedding party for girls so the dads are off doing their thing. Quick and easy. I like em like that. Tftc.

Easy find as advertised. All good. Took/left nothing. TFTC.

Fourth find of the series whilst taking an early morning stroll during the Launceston leg of our Tassie holiday
Many thanx for the cache

The last one in this series attempted today and a quick find after detouring around the ditch. Didn't want wet feet and couldn't really see how wet it was down there because of the long grass. Hopefully we will get the rest of these finished tomorrow. Thanks.

Tftc

Good hide
TFTC

Another quick easy one tftc

Found while on holiday in Tasmania from Newcastle. TFTC

Travelling around Australia and spending a few months in Tasmania.

Still struggling with the flu but hopefully finally on the mend we decided with the warmer weather to get the electric geobikes out! [^]

Boy it might only be a short trail here but we needed that battery assist today.

The caches that we found were all in good order. Picked up the TB here.

Looking forward to meeting local cachers at the Event on 17th October.


TFTC Ryan00

On my bike around collecting caches in this series. I crossed over at the lights and rode to GZ. As I was crossing the grass, birds were squawking at being disturbed. Once I arrived at GZ, I searched for quite awhile without success. Following the clue, I searched everyone around the tree but alas, could not find anything. I left and returned on my return trip after completing the series.

My second time around proved successful. The cache itself had not been replaced properly and was lying hidden alittle distance from the intended hiding place. I put the cache back where it would match the hint and left. Moving on! TFTC!

Took a while to find as hint was a little misleading.

Hi Ryan00
A find in the company of Budgietas and his sons E and O.
Sainted the cache at 1145hrs
TFTC and cheers
OldSaint.

Thanks for the cache, all southern caches now done.

tftc

Yay!! Finally successful after getting some help from a cacher on his electric trike. TFTC

Our last find for today. The weather has cracked up. Tftc

Took a few goes but finally found this cache whilst on a late night cache hunt... Wasn't coming home until I had found it this time.
One of those that leaves you wondering why you didn't find it sooner.
TFTC
Cheers

Was just about on the verge of giving up on this one. A somewhat difficult find in the not so obvious spot, thanks for the challenge ..!!

No luck tonight finding this one.. Too many shadows under torch light. Will return again during daylight hours for a better look.

No luck today
