Saltwater #3 The Sunshine Coast Point Cook, Victoria, Australia
By Ketchthor on 21-Jan-16. Waypoint GC6A1KV

Taking the next step - sorry.

If you can't do me the courtesy of responding to my enquiry, then I have no choice but to assume the cache has been abandoned.

Have been muggles multiple times trying to sort this out. Will give it one more go by the end of the month.

I'll aim to attend to this by the end of the month.

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED**###

*Today we limited our target area to Werribee & Point Cook as there are more than enough unfound caches such as this one waiting for us.*

This is not quite what we were expecting for "The Sunshine Coast", but we tracked it down in the end.

**NOTE TO CO** Reference your 7.4.17 log, we found a cache with a full log and quite damp - just wondering if there are now two caches at the one spot?

Thanks to Ketchthor for placing this cache.

The cache is ready to go again.

The cache has been replaced.

Had a quick look this evening and couldn't find the cache. Will head back soon for a more thorough search.

Nice little micro, needs a new log book though :

The log needs replacing. I'll attend to the cache shortly.

Didn't take long today! - W + M

The sun went down as we started looking and the trillions of bugs went in for the kill. Will come back when it's sunny. - W

I was just writing a DNF when Mrs Plow yelled found it. The log is wet and full. We squeezed in a bit of new paper. Tftc. Great views of the city from here. Now the kids are off to play in the fantastic park nearby. Thanks for bringing us to this spot say the plowkids!

Ye not in position right

Found it! Didn't sign it though because the logbook was wet and full

Have not been in this area for so long. Was amazed at what was here. Cache was fairly easy to find but log too full to sign.

A great little hide. We have enjoed this series. Thanks for putting it together.

Found it but log full.

Nice hide. Took a while.

Quick find and also admired the city skyline. Log is full.

Nice quick find on second attempt. Managed to squeeze my initials on the log.

Must have looked strange to all the muggles around today to have 2 people in civvies examining pieces of the bridge so closely, even on hands and knees at one point. It paid off though when I spotted it.

Log is completely full and needs replacing please

Outstanding city views here - lovely! And nicely placed so that even though an exposed area, the ruse of bird watching made the retrieval fine. Thanks for the cache

So, being a geocaching souvenir tart, I had to make a run to find at least one cache today. Ketchthor's Saltwater series looked good for a hunt today. I had planned to start at #1 and work my way along to #4, but I took a wrong turn on the way, so started at #4. After finding #4 fairly quickly, I took a short walk to #3. I thought I had a pretty fair idea as to where this one would be and had the nano in hand fairly quickly. I had a nasty moment when I dropped the lid in an inaccessible spot, but fortunately had the tool kit with me and had something I could retrieve it with. I needed a different tool to get the log out too, so a good day to have the kit with me.

Cache is in good condition, but is in need of a new log. I had to write my log above 6hinemoa2's log - in very small script.

TNLNSL. TFTC Ketchthor.

Found it with three members of Xtreme Bs. Had a bit of trouble but finally found. Nice hint that helped a lot. Tftc

A quick and easy drive by as we cache our way around the area today with mcsee&petal. Another very attractive public area. Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.

Found in the company of Papillon4506 as we ascended on this area to find a few caches for the day and to check out the area as well.

A nice easy find here and we were soon on our way to the next cache. Thanks for placement here Ketchthor.

This one proved too difficult for our first geocache outing...will try again when we're a bit more experienced!

After three tries we found it.

Log is full and needs replacing. This has been mentioned a few times now.

The forecast for today had it getting worse in the afternoon, so BettyBoo3747 and I choofed off down to Point Cook to collect a puzzle long solved. While we were in the area we did a few others.
Last time we were in this area we did the other two in this series, today we completed it.
I do not like nano's but the find was made easier from the good co-ordinates.
Thanks, Robmc.

# 10736. Having spent the last two days riding around in the sunshine we decided to take the dogs for an outing and find a few caches, hopefully before the rains came. I managed 5 finds and the dogs had a couple of walks and we beat the rains!

It seems we are following in the footsteps of two people we know well, who have visited over the past two days. Fortunately the GPS zeroed us to GZ exactly and I had my paw on it within seconds. That is what I like for a nasty nano cache. The log is full so we had to write over old names. Will post a needs maintenance log, as several people have mentioned this already.

I love the landscaping through this relatively new suburb - lovely views to the city and very nice water features.

Thanks Ketchthor

I found this cache right where the GPS was pointing which was fine by me! An interesting view up the creek towards the city too.

I enjoyed the 4 caches in this series which provided me with a good look at this linear park through this new development. Even found a nice café for lunch on the way.
A bit exposed on the bridge and the log needs replacing too.
Cheers

Quick stop on the way home, to look for this little series. This is a nice little development with all the parks and green spaces down the middle of the main avenue. It was a bright sunny day this afternoon which we haven't had for a while but unfortunately that meant everyone was out and about and increased the difficulties of all of these finds. A few different spots for this little one to be hidden and you're quite exposed on the bridge while searching so thankfully I managed to put my hands on the hide reasonably quickly and managed to scrawl my name on a small space of the log that is pretty full. Thanks for the cache Ketchthor.

Man I hate nanos. I'll be back though

TFTC, sneeeeeeky! Log full

As expected, but still a clever hide. This was a little more difficult with the number of muggles around.

Nice find again! Took a couple of mins after the gps calmed down. Partner was able to get down to puppy eye level and quickly was in hand.

Tftc. Nice find

TFTC-good 1 Mole

Tftc needs a new log az mini mole and captain DeJel are last 2 log thanks

Found on a lovely fall day. 38 1/2 weeks pregnant. Sitting on a bench. Husband asks if there are any caches nearby. I hadn't thought to check. Why yes there are several with in waddling distance. The other Mrs Duck and I take off to find a few. Leaving my husband with the kids at the park. Thank you for the little adventure today.

Took a little while to find this one. The GPS wanted to dance around. I waited and soon honed in on GZ where I finally found the little devil.
Thanks for the hunt in the lovely spot on the Sunshine but windy coast Ketchthor

These new subdivisions just keep growing. Cool looking park nearby....this took me a little while to find but I trusted my GPSr and soon had the nano. Thanks Ketchthor.

Finally tick this one of the list! Some clever deduction work here.

Spent a long time....perhaps compass was not happy...very confused....

DNF......Again! This is frustrating. I know I'm within a metre of it, and I know it's small, but I think this geofamily is overthinking this or missing something simple. Try again tomorrow!

ooh so tiny.

A perfect day to explore this nice neighbourhood and pick up a few caches in the process. I expected lots of traffic of the small kind in this area today and was pleasantly surprised to see only one family. After eliminating a few possibilities the sneaky little cache was soon in hand. I signed the log and replaced the cache as I had found. Thanks for bringing me to this beautiful place tftc

Beaten on this occasion, but we will be back!

Accurate co-ords led to an easy find. Great location. TFTC

I had a spare hour or so this morning - family still sleeping - so decided to get these 4 done. Set myself 20 min completion time for the series. Managed them in less than that - it helped that there was NOBODY around. Saltwater has grown from a field to huge estate in what seems like a few months. Great landscaping & views of the city - and now some super caches too. Thanks Ketchthor, you're the best!

After giving up the first time round on this one, we gave it one last ditch effort on our way home from the park... Thanks for a tricky little one.

Out this afternoon to grab a quick cache to fill a whole on my 366 calendar. This one is nearby to home, so thought I would duck up and try. Bad choice of time in the late afternoon as everyone is out and about with their family...however some beautiful views across to the city. An obvious location was spotted, but took some time to find the right gap in people to grab it. A quick grab and signing duties were completed. TFTC

An easy find today as I put my hand on when I first started looking. Noice
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks for this cache experience here today.

Suscoe decided to have a day out heading north from home and then working steadily back to the south.
We covered quite a few kilometres after leaving home in the dark.
A terrific range of caching containers and locations were discovered.
It was a magnificent Autumn day with a mild breeze, plenty of sunshine and not too many vehicles to pass on the roads.

This was our 21st find and last find of the day.
Thanks to Ketchthor for placing this cache here.
A quick find for Suscoe.
Nice to say hello to caughtatwork here and finally put some faces to the name.

Time to head home, its been a long day!!!!!

Catching up on a few late logs (something not that unusual for me). As always, I enjoyed the journey to find the cache, mostly I have been in the company of Team Crackers, maccamob, alansee and the Coffee's, but occasionally I have gone out solo to soak in the solitude of being out in the fresh air.

Thanks Ketchthor for placing this cache.

Nice "little" find! Nice parks around here. TFTC

Found by Mary & David, in company with micaparamedic, at 1445. The nearby park was quite busy this afternoon, but we could search ok with a little bit of stealth. G found it on the second pass. Our thanks to Ketchthor.

Manzie and I were on the way home after checking out the new marina in Werribee, so I thought a quick detour was in order to collect a couple of caches. Thankfully the coordinates were spot on, so it was just a matter of a thorough search. I found the cache hiding where manzie had already 'looked', obviously not hard enough, lol! TFTC!

Took Geobub to the park for a play. She loved the crocodile and water jets. Swung by this one on the way back to the car. TFTC.

Found on a quiet Saturday morning after the gym. Not many muggles about so able to retrieve without attracting any attention. Coords spot on and I used the satellite picture to narrow it down. TFTC.

Took me little while even though coords were spot on. TFTC

Nice hide on a sunny Saturday

Very tiny, watch the spiders

Came back during daylight. Found it.

Struggled. Will try again.

Thanks for the cache.

While our wives were having a girls day at the Shadowfax Winery, Arkbell80 & I decided to take Posho6 and the other kids out for a spot of caching.
This cache was a nice easy find. We had the log signed and were on our way to the next one.
TFTC!!!

Another quick find. Thanks for the cache.

Out caching with Bazinga01 and Posho6 while the wifes were out for lunch. This was a quick find by Bazinga01 signed log and replaced. TFTC

The Estate is coming along quite well as the cache was logged with Swans And Ducks .

TFTC. Unsure why this didn't log earlier. Kids enjoyed finding this little one. Very cute!

*** First to Find ***
I must have missed it on the first pass as the co-ords were spot on. I looked at the bridge very thoroughly, probably weirding out the locals. Even the local hunstman. Look out for him, he's pissed. Thanks for the cache, and another FTF, Ketchthor.
