A quick find whilst enjoying a walk this morning. TFTCCheers,The Hancock Clan
Out for a hike for the day with some friends. One friend visiting from Canberra so great excuse to go out and adventure. TFTC
Bit of a trek, worth it though, fun finds along the tracks. Waypoint off, pretty easy though, just look for things that seem out of place... also no pen byo
Today we went out for a nice country drive and to find caches along the way. It was a much nicer day weather wise which meant our photos were also a lot more summery.The scenery around Wynyard is pretty nice.Great walk the beaches along here are so interesting l. Quick find in obvious spot at GZ, realized when we got back to the car that there was another cache along here darn it. TFTC
Tftc. Nice walk there and the black and brown rocks in the little bay were striking. A quick find which I like.
Obviously, I took the hardest way in to get this cache. Easily found once at GZ. TFTC
tftc! hard to find almost left before finding it. the journey to get there was incredible. I was also surprised that there was actually tradables in it.
Found with GeoMaggie2. Warm windy day. Lovely rough coast area. Log very worn. Tftc
Lots of loose rocks. Found with Angus 88. Won’t try for next one today. Thank you for the cache from GeoMaggie and her sidekick Bonnie.
Great little wander with the kids. Got halfway there and realised we had no reception to view the description or the hint. So when we found the cache using GPS only we were pretty chuffed! Would love to come back and do the rest of the walk to Sisters one day! Amazing place! Thanks for the find
I thought this was going to be difficult but walked straight up to it! This was after stumbling over rocks and somehow taking a wrong turn right at the start of the track. I’ll come back here sometime and go all the way to Sisters. Thanks for this.
We continued on the Sister's Beach coastal walk in search of the remaining caches.
SuperG came to the party yet again and had the cache in hand in record time.
Thanks BarDar.

Found cache, don’t think it was where it was supposed to be. Hidden again at log... not sure what ic means...
Hi, thx for hiding the cache so good. After 1h we gave up. Is it still there? It seams to be a long time since the last found. Also the hint was not helpful. The vegetation in the area has probably changed a bit in the last times. A bit more info in the hint could help. The GPS signal is too weak to guide precisely on the spot, it changes continuously the precision of measuring the distance. Anyway the sunset on the spot was very nice.
No luck with this one today, searched out to about 20m from GZ.
Maybe I need to get my glasses checked.
Thanks for the hide anyway BarDar(BAD)

In Tassie with family doing a short trip around this lovely island. We saw some amazing scenery, wildlife and visited some beautiful places while touring around in our motorhome. I took the opportunity to stop and grab any caches when we could stop. We only had a few DNF's and made some good discoveries and clever hides during the trip. We had some fun and laughs along the way.
Free camping nearby allowed for time to grab these caches and enjoy the lovely area. Enjoyed the journey along the track then making my way upto this one, where after an exsensive search the hide was discovered.
Thanks BarDar (BAD) for placing the cache for us to find and doing the maintenance to keep it in play.

Tassie Trip Day 35 - well after our inability to collect any Boat Harbor caches the other day we ventured there today to a car park that was empty so parking was no problem however the finding of cache proved to be a little more difficult with 3 DNFs for the day all in the Boat Harbor area.
So a few more to get and a walk had to be conducted to get closer so off the junior member went to find this at the hiden location well the location was obvious but the coordinates were off a little.
Thanks BarDar(BAD) for this nice scenic walk to the cache.

Reperio at 1425.
While spending the day roaming around the area as part of our Tasmanian holiday, we stopped by a couple of select caches throughout the day. This series of caches looked like a nice walk, however it was only as we were walking to the first one that I looked at the logs on the other two and noticed that they may be missing. We arrived here at GZ and soon spotted the cache, and then headed back to the car. A beautiful little trail here which we enjoyed.

Hi there BarDar (BAD).
We cached around Rocky Cape and Boat Harbour today - and found your cache **"Harbour - sisters walk"** at 1:07:00 PM. (This brings our total find count to 18457).
We ended up finding a variety of container types and sizes on our journey & found 6 caches (& DNF'd 2).
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.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

Decided to take advantage of todays gorgeous weather and find some caches and pokemon
After having no luck at the TB Heaven we continued on to this one. We had never been over this side of boat harbour so it was nice to explore somewhere new. Really enjoyed the tracks and walk along the rocks to this one. Geodog ended up filthy but he was happy and enjoyed himself too. Arrived at GZ which was a little inaccurate with the coverage but quite obvious and had cache in hand in a matter of seconds. Everything is in excellent dry condition. We will search again for TB Heaven on our way back past.
Thanks BarDar (BAD) for the nice walk and cache. P.S. think I accidently put the wrong date in the log book couldn't decide if it was 31 July or 1 August oops.

Hi BarDar
A six day caching trip had me travel 1675km around the West and North West Coasts of Tasmania.
Places visited included Hagley, Latrobe, Ulverstone, Burnie, Waratah, Savage River, Corinna, Yolla, Wynyard, Oldina, Boat Harbour, Sisters Beach, Gunns Plains, Sheffield, Natone and Lovett Flats.
Eight caches only found on day one, 19 on day two; 27 to date.
This was the 33rd cache to be found, total caches found 55.
An enjoyable walk to and from the car re ground zero. Part beach, part bush - great!
Had an easy find here, Sainting the cache and signing the log at 1308hrs.
TFTC and cheers

Today we explored the NW Coast, this was one of the caches we found. An easy find.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Quick find more by touch than by looking - never sure what size cache we're after. TFTC. Perfect day, just had a swim.
what a really beautiful spot! a larger container would have been nice, but i'm not complaining. i enjoyed the short walk and the views. TFTC!
We enjoyed the walk to this cache which was thankfully an easy find. There was a bloke nearby poking at some old bottles and pondering how the ancient rubbish had gotten there. Later, we continued walking along the path, following the tapes, and spent some time wandering along the rocks among the tidal pools. It was very nice. Thanks for the caches!
Camped at Boat harbour for a few days,on a morning walk on Sister's beach track/hike Quick find TFTC
Had never walked along this track before. Very warm in under the trees on a beautiful day for caching. TFTC
We had looked for this cache a couple of days ago but without success. When we noticed that the coordinates had been updated placing the cache another 200m away, we decided to extend our walk along the track today to try to find this one. This time accurate coordinates led to a quick find. the cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks for the cache BarDar and the many you have published along the coast.
Found this last night, but lost my pen on the walk in to the cache so couldn't sign the log

Have checked this one and cache as gone missing already not sure what has happened will replace very soon
Thanks BarDar for your prompt action looking for this cache. We look forward to hunting for this cache once it is replaced.
After a very enjoyable Christmas lunch, we could think of no better way to continue the celebrations but with a family caching hunt for some of the new caches in the area. So we set off along the coast with chocolate_ali. This was the first cache we went to look for this afternoon. Despite searching for about 45 minutes, we didn't have any success. Our GPS units were very definite about the location of GZ and there was some spots consistent with the hint, but we didn't have any luck. We widened our search area for at least 10m all around GZ, but still no joy. We will return at some time to try again. Thanks BarDar for the cache and for a great Christmas day family activity.
