Unfortunately there has not been a response (or regular update) from the cache owner within the period requested and, as per the original advice, this cache is now being de-listed (Archived) as abandoned.

If there are components or remnants of the cache, please recover them as we don't want to litter our environment.

If you wish to contact a Reviewer regarding this cache, please send an email via the profile - [**Bunjil**,](https://coord.info/PR9GZ0K) and quote the Cache Name and GC Identification Code.

### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED PLEASE** ###

----------

Hi there carkisser,

It looks like this cache might need some attention, as one or more seekers have indicated there is an issue. The cache has been temporarily disabled, so as to remove it from search listings and discourage people from visiting this location until the issues/s with this cache can be addressed.

**You do need to respond in some way within 14 days, so others know you are on top of it, as well as indicating exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication scuttle this listing.**

#What should you do now:-#
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-

- **Check On The Cache:-** Visit the cache and repair and/or replace or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked and [**ENABLE your cache**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ). Then sit back and wait for the logs of praise to roll in.

- **Place A Write Note Log::-** Reviewers are not mind readers (unfortunately), so without your note on the cache page explaining that the site works are on-going, you have been in hospital, the area is in flood, or some other reason that has prevented attending to the cache, they can't tell what is going on.
So please just post a note to the page (within 14 days) and when a Reviewer next looks at the listing, all will be fine for a little bit longer.
**Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. If you have a long term unavailable cache (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 4 to 6 weeks, so as to keep everyone up to speed.**

- **Adopt/Archive:-** If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**Archive it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56), so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when a Reviewer next looks at the cache page, it is likely that they will, unfortunately, have to de-list (Archive) on the basis that it has been abandoned.

Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

**JUST A TIP:-** Have you checked out the Geocaching Dash Board designed to assist a Cache Owner in managing the caches they own? Have a read about it [**HERE.**](https://www.geocaching.com/blog/2020/07/welcome-to-the-cache-owner-dashboard/?newsletter=PM) You will find your very own dash board [**HERE**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/owner?utm_source=geocaching&utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=COD).

Thanks for your cooperation,

Good sized caches, with accurate coordinates and good hints are making for a pleasant drive and an enjoyable day. Thank you for the effort you have put in to setting this trail for all to enjoy. This cache log book is totally unusable. I didn't even bother to open the bag. I left a laminated icybeetas card as confirmation of the find.

Today was my day to finish off the challenge caches on Mt. Disappointment and grab a few of those trad caches as we drove past. This is the second time up here for the challenges and today we were determined to get the job done. However we picked the worst day possible it was bitterly cold and blowing a gale. Every 5 minutes we would get a burst of rain then 5 minutes of sun just before the next shower of rain. Occasionally we got pelted with rice size hail which was fine as it just bounced off and we didn’t get wet. It really was a bit of fun.

The wind had picked up so bad that on the way out we had to stop and help a truck driver to remove a falling tree on the road.

More to come

Log and contents mush, unable to sign. Will need maintenance

Headed south from Brisbane to attended the Whittlesea mega. Depending on the log size and who I was with this is signed as nikid1, ND1 or TQ5 (team Queensland).

Second day up this way and we thought we might as well grab a few more of this series.


TFTC and impressive trail carkisser

Found while in the area to attend the Mega Event at Whittlesea.

Today I joined up with Team Waldron, Freddo, gridge98 and Davidwazza as we targeted caches of interest. All caches were signed 'A.O.T.'

Thanks carkisser & JSando for the cache

Found on a days caching while at the Mega.

Nice to put a DNF to bed.

November 2022. Time for the second Victorian Mega of the year. This time in Whittlesea. What is it with W's? Time for another epic road trip. Who will join our merry crew? We traveled from South Australia and camped in the pig pen. It rained. It blew. It was sunny. It was not sunny. All four seasons. Beautiful location and some awesome caches.

Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun.

Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke für den Cache. Gracias por el caché. Bedankt voor de cache. Kiitos kätköstä. Zikomo posungira. Terima kasih untuk cache. Hvala cache. Köszönöm a cache. Nga mihi mo te keteroki. Dankie vir die kas.

Spending the day grabbing the rest of these Mt Disa caches, quick grab here although container was full of water and log unable to be signed. TFTC

I have been intending to have a go at finding the caches on this iconic geocaching route for a while now. Today was the day, well to make a start anyway .. generally the coords and hints were spot on, unfortunately a small number of the caches we found were a bit damp but I still managed to make my mark…next time I will bring spares. We were surprised with the amount of people here, dirt bike riders, shooters 4WDers and campers… and of course geocachers. A few caches we had to give a miss due to muggle activity but got them on the way back. Apologies in advance for the generic logs! Thanks to carkisser and JSando for the series .. I can’t imagine how much work was put into the series .. much appreciated! We will be back to get the rest.. but maybe not on Easter weekend

Found this cache today after missing it last visit. Easy find however couldn’t sign the log as it was soaked. Picture of container to prove find. TFTC

An afternoon out in the area with +Wife and the GeoMutts.

After eating our lunch and paying a visit to Mt. Disappointment we headed on down for some more driving lessons.

Thanks for the cache carkisser & JSando.

TFTC re hid this one was very obvious

Found

Today is the day we are aiming to complete our 2000th cache, but have a few more caches left before this milestone, so completing the remaining Mt Disapointment caches today! Overcast but nice weather!

TFTC, added an extra log as the log is soggy.

Found it, I left a pink bubblegum nomnom and took nothing. It was full of water

Great day out with Bogonghazy on our way to Mansfield. Goal was to find 200 caches and we did.
Beautiful day and thank you for placing the caches. Will be back to finish them off.

Needing to be in Mansfield early tomorrow, LittleBoss2 and I decided to head to Mt Disappointment to try to grab some of these amazing caches dedicated to Carkisser's Dad.
We had a great day where the aim was to see if LB2 could nab 200 caches in a day, which she did. So many great caches, accurate coords and great hints made for a very successful day with only one dnf.
Our thanks to Carkisser and JSando for making our day so special

Good to g

Good to go

Nice sunny weather and surely it can’t last So headed back into the forest from a different direction. Fab fun exploring this territory and a relaxing caching day. Shared the trails with dirt bikes, domestic loggers, and sightseers.

I wasn’t looking for huge numbers ‘tho the finds started to pile up after lunch. Having said that, a couple of sneaky hides had me spinning in circles As I’ve said before about this PT, the hides are consistent, good coords and hints Rounded out the day with a visit to Broadford to give the car a hose down before returning to Yea. I should sleep well tonight.

Not to get logging as keen to see what’s left on the map

TFTC carkisser and JSando

The container had some water inside here but the new log in the ziplock are holding up well. Probably doesn't need maintenance from the CO as apposed to the previous cache.

Unfortunately I’ve been unwell, so delayed in maintenance. Will definitely get this done by the 20th of January.

Unfortunately I was held in lockdown longer on medical grounds, and have only just been released this week. I hope to attend to this geocache by 13/12/20

Very wet but the log book was dry. dalerious wiped it out and dried it totally before replacing it Covid safely.
Last time we were here we DNF’d it, so very pleased to turn this into a couple of smiley faces on our maps.
Thanks for placing and maintaining these caches for us carkisser & JSando.
Two green finds on this cache now, you can take it off your maintenance list.

Found with Cybergran V and her MuggleHubby.

Last time we were here we left with a nasty blue frown on our maps.
I think it was about the only DNF on a day of 100+ cache finds.
Today we get to turn that frown upside down and do a good deed by cleaning out the damp cache (paying particular attention to cleaning the lid seal) and returning a dryed out logbook with a couple more signatures in it.
This cache is good to go again.
TFTC carkisser & JSando.

Cannot check due to covid. Will get to it ASAP

### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED PLEASE** ###

----------

Given the container in the image provided by 'c_risten ' they may not have found the cache.

Perhaps it's time for the CO to visit and check the situation - removing any other articles that may appear to be the cache and confirming the cache is actually at the listed coordinates.

**Cache has been Disabled pending CO investigation.**

Whilst it is recognized that as a result of the current COVID19 situation, it might not be possible for a Cache Owner to just pop out and check on a cache, we still need to know that you are on top of the issue.

CO's of caches disabled during the current COVID19 crisis will be given some extra time to react. Caches where the cache owner does not currently feel it is safe to maintain will not be archived in the normal time frame, as long as there is some indication from the CO. **Don't let a lack of communication kill this cache.**

#What should you do:-#
- Should you feel it safe for you to maintain and address this cache now, AND your regional Health and Governmental authorities allow it, please feel free to do so.

- **Alternatively,** what you need to do is place a Write Note log indicating a date when you you expect you might be able to attend to the issue/s.

#Please Note#
When a Reviewer next looks in on the cache, if there is no acknowledgment from the CO as requested above, the Reviewer will assume the cache has been abandoned and process accordingly.

Finally, a weekend with no kids and (momentarily) lifted ISO restrictions. We’ve known about this epic series since we started caching a few years ago but have never made the trek from South Gippsland. We started on Saturday 20th at about 11.30am and cached steadily until dark, which was pretty early given it was Winter Solstice. The campsites were all full with dirt bikers, so we found a quiet spot in the bush to camp. A wet night ensured followed by an early start and we got back to the caches again. We only had until mid morning, but over the two days we found a total of approx 152 caches.
Apologies in advance for the generic logs! There were only a few DNF’s and we’ll log those separately. Caches were otherwise in excellent condition and the coords and hints were spot on.
Thanks so much to carkisser and JSando for this extraordinary series! We applaud the effort that you have put into placing and maintaining these caches We look forward to coming back and finding the rest

After finding the PoGo cache on top of Mt Dissapointment we decided to nab a few of these caches on the way back down. These have been on our list for a while but were waiting for summer when we can camp there. The etching on the top of the containers was awesome! Such effort - thank you. Sorry for the general logs as we nabbed these quickly to get off the mountain as it was covered in fog and rain.
Thanks carkisser and jsando for the hides! All caches were in good shape.

Thanks for the quick hides, as it’s cold and nearly raining!

Easy

Nice and easy

Found

I’m back for the 3rd time roaming the streets of Mt Disappointment in an attempt to double my finds to 1000 by 29 Feb. Ridiculous! considering I was at #400 17Nov and #500 28Dec.

TFTC carkisser and jSando

New log

Fixed

I will be checking on this cache by February 16.

Needs checking

This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.

With permission of the team member who was in the local hospital we decided on a day our this time with a goal of collecting 150 finds for the day which will if achieved will be our best caching day and after spending the day collecting cache after cache we ended with 151 finds and 3 DNFs so it was a rely good outing today.

Sorry it is copy and paste logs most were nice quick finds some proved a little more difficult however most we very easy finds and some require a little attention from the owner for wet logs with it being a good day as it was cool to start and didn't get over hot during the day we managed to make the goal of 150 finds with 1 extra just to be sure.

Thanks carkisser & JSando for placing this series for us to make such an assault to collect so many caches on one day.

Log book wet

Today was our second visit to this area, hoping to grab a few more of this fabulous series.
Thanks to carkisser & JSando and others who have assisted in keeping this series going, so we were not disappointed.

This series was on the cards today, most of the caches I did were all in good condition, unfortunately it seems some of the cache sbetween 45-69 are missing due to widening of the road were I had quite a few DNFs.
Caches between 184-191 need replacing as they are all wet.
Cache from 180-140 are in great condition and were all quickly located.
Overall I had a good trip and a good few hours out finding these

Today was a big day out, well it felt like it anyway. With the rain coming out of the clouds early I was unsure if my plan would be put to action. After hosting an event in the morning the skies seemed to clear so off I went in search of some Mount Disappointment caches. After finding just over 100 of them I decided to pull the pin and head back to Melbourne to do some more interesting caches. Some multis were on the cards and some finals were located but due to the amount of high muggles frequency due to this so called thing of “school holidays”, I had to leave the caches.  Finished off the day with an event near Marvel stadium and on the Spirit to Tasmania.

A great day out with 118 finds. A good few days in vic finished off.

Thanks for the cache

Today I headed out to complete the Mt Disappointment Driving Lesson series of caches. I really enjoyed coming up here again and its a really amazing place to take your time to find the caches and take in the serenity of the area. I'm pretty sure I found all of the remaining caches in the series and finally cache #62 which had become my Mt Disappointment nemesis.
It's an amazing area to explore and if you get the chance to camp the night as well I highly recommend it. There's plenty great areas to pitch a tent.
Thanks for the caches and for bringing me up here again.

After a lot of planning over the last few months, the day had finally come to get stuck into this series. I followed the route I had worked out without being sidetracked and everything went pretty much as I had hoped. I made my first find at 7:10am and the last for the day at 6:15pm. By 7 o’clock I was sitting in the Red Lion in Kilmore enjoying a cold beer and thinking back over a most enjoyable day. There was of course the odd DNF along the way as well. The weather was kind to me which helped a lot as well. A big thanks to carkisser & JSando for placing this and maintain this series. Cheers and TFTC

If you are not in a hurry then this is a nice little detour not too far off the Hume so here I am chipping away in chunks at Dads Driving Lessons which likely wasn’t a marathon done in one hit. Good day before the rain comes with little traffic - just a few wood collectors foraging around. All caches spotted quickly apart from one although a few a wee bit damp. TFTC series - I’ll be back for more sometime!

Dad decided to take a drive on a quiet country road and collect a few (hundred) caches today tomorrow and the next day. Mt Disappointment here I come. Find #[email protected]

Dad’s Mt Disappointment Driving Lesson Run Number Two.

Well after a much later than anticipated start the Inspectorrex team got to work where we left off. Starting at cache # 138 and made it thru to cache #227 which was the end of a string and a long to go back to get to #228. As light was fading fast Along with a couple of side caches not related to this series. Apologies for the generic logging however these caches were all logged in the evening after the days caching was completed. A very big thankyou to carkisser and JSando for setting up and maintaining this wonderful power series. We will be back in May to complete some more of the series.
Thanks for the Caches from the Inspectorrex team.

After rain called play last night it was back on the road with Gonefishen07 and Bounty Trackers for an early morning start.
Thoroughly enjoyed the caches, the area and the company.
Thanks for placing these caches

Found with BorisB&Natasha and Bounty Trackers. We signed the log with our stamp Geo Nerds.
On a fun weekend with these two doing as many of these caches as we can while here. TFTC we had a great time. Stayed at Flowerdale pub overnight back for some more fun today.

2 day caching trip with Sioux & Leesa we have stamped log with our Geo Nerds stamp for Bounty Trackers, Borisb&natasha & Gonefishen.
Thanks for the cache.

On the way to our overnight camping spot this cache was a nice quick find once at Ground Zero. We signed the log book and then replaced as found. Thanks so much for the cache and greetings from Zimbabwe

TFTC Quick find while out with Moroldies

Quick find,thanks for a great series and bringing us to this interesting area.TFTC

The disappointment was palpable now as I followed the caches along the Mt Disappointment Road

I wasn't disappointed by a DNF here

Great day out with Team Justice, successfully completing this wonderful series in a day. The challenge has appealed to us for a long time, and it was incredibly satisfying to be able to complete it. Throughout the day we often marveled at the size and quantity of the containers you must have had at home in order to lay these out. Thanks so much carkisser for this astonishingly ambitious and well executed series. We loved it!

A plan was hatched with Clint & Abby over 12 months ago when we saw these caches come out over time. We could get 100, nah, let’s get them all and soon after a few drinks we decided to attempt the lot in 1 day. Time passed and somehow we found ourselves talking about it at a recent event (yes, and more drinks). Let’s do it after Christmas, ok. So, we meet in Wallan at 6am to begin the long day.

We had a few ideas to speed up our caching given we were trying to find 300+ caches in a day and that our previous record was about 60 in a day so this was going to be tough. We put the GPS and pens on lanyards do we could keep our hands few when getting the cache and didn’t have to pick up or get things out of our pockets. We did shifts of 1 hour, so one person did the driving, ate, re-hydrated and relaxed, while the other cached for the hour. The driver also provided the clue up front between caches as the cacher counted the distance down to the cache.

Now to the clues. Tree, stump, log, rock! We were getting a good chuckle over the clues, ‘beside tree’, we are in a forest! We found some of the ‘logs’ were not yet logs (i.e. trees), but they were close most of the time. We thought there might be some sort of random clue generator sometimes.

To the numbers. 330 caches attempted in 10 hours and 22 minutes. We had 7 DNFs and a total of 323 finds. This meant an average find time (including DNFs) of 1 minute, 53 seconds. We were quite amazed at the speed we could go and how quick you could find, sign and move on. It also comes down to the great containers laid out by carkisser for this power trail. Nice and large, and easy to find and extract the logs. We only came across one Eclipse time late in the day. Our biggest hour of finds was our 5th hour of 42 finds. This averaged out at 1 minute and 25 seconds per cache.

Overall, we had a great time as it was a challenge to push ourselves to get all these caches. We loved the layout and the effort to place all these caches. Thanks so much to carkisser for the caches.

Heading over for the Mega, stopped by for a few of these.

Thanks

I'm in Melbourne for a few day's with Horsesrule1990, heading to the event and to pick up as many caches as possible. Once the Melbourne Mega raps up we will head to the Gold Coast , for a few day hitting all the fun parks. Then heading back to Western Australia, and back to Work. Would like to thank everyone for there caches and there efforts hiding then for us to find.all Tftc.

Over for Parkville Event started early this Morning after I landed in Melbourne, with Becknmonts and Loulou0212 we saw some beautiful scenery, great fun completing this series in 1 day

After Becknmonts and I picked gabs1963 up from the airport we headed out to start our day, a beautiful quick stop at Melbourne’s first before we headed to start this trail, thanks so much for putting theses caches out, I really enjoyed them - definitely a first for me getting my geo car off the road and on some dirt - TFTC carkisser

I had a great day out today after LouLou0212 and myself picked Gabs1963 up for the airport. We headed to “Melbourne’s First” and then onto this trail as Gabs1963 has cached our her 450km radius, so she wanted some “easy numbers”. Thanks so much for placing this trail carkisser

16/11/2018 I needed some numbers to get my milestone of 21000 finds so headed out to Mt Disappointment to grab 100 or so of the power trail caches. Only a few DNF's thanks to tree fellers and dozers. TFTC.

New container

Good to go

We arrived in the area with a particular plan and that was to do the Dad's Mt Disappointment Driving Lesson trail. All caches were found or replaced (with the permission of the owner) Some still need the logs replaced but we ran out of supplies.
This trail was done with Hans and Linda, the jumping in and out of the car was shared, the driving was shared, lunch was had on the trail where ever we found a place that appealed to us.
Some shots were fired near one of the caches which startled the crap out of us. We did not think that you were allowed to shoot here. The roads were a mixture of good, bad and ugly. Thankfully it was dry it did try very hard to rain but all we saw was not enough to wet the car or us.
We apologise for the generic logs, this does not mean we thought any less of this series. We appreciate the effort that has gone into placing this trail and maintaining it, this is why we were more than happy to help with some maintenance.
SL TFTC

TFTC. Our friends Jackie and Dennis (Muff1)had invited us to join them in making an assault on Mt Disappointment. We drove up on Sunday to Kilmore to join them. After putting a dent in the Mt Disappointment trail yesterday, our aim today was to finish the trail. We had an added incentive. We were close to 5000 finds and there was the pooibility we could track 200 finds for the day. The weather forecast did not look great but the weatherman was wrong . Muff1 had spoken to the CO and made arrangements to replace any caches that were missing. They will contact they CO with details of any issues we found along the way. We had a great time . We replaced 7 missing caches. We had never visited this area before and the trail gave us an appreciation of the area. Thank you carkisser & JSando for a great series.
This was the sixt of seven that were replaced along the trail.

### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED PLEASE** ###

----------

This cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as a cache that **MAY** need some attention. The cache owner would have received an automated email from Geocaching HQ recently which explained what they need to do.

Unfortunately, nothing seems to have happened, so I am having to take the next step - see here: [**Geocache Health Score.**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713)

The cache is being temporarily disabled so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

**Can you please respond to this situation (or indicated your intention) within 14 days,** so others know exactly what is happening with this cache?

You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:

- Check on the cache, repair and/or replace the cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the praises.

- If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (within 14 days). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. For ongoing issues (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to speed.

- If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**Archive it,**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56) so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when I next look at the cache page, it is likely that I will, unfortunately, have to de-list (Archive) it on the basis that it has been abandoned.

Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

Didn't find it in the time allowed.

Not Found

This cache is gone. Evidence of local earthmoving.

No find here.

No joy on this one

Adding our names to the growing list of DNF'ers

??

Not sure

Our only DNF of the day. As the completest that I am I will be back. Such a shame that this cache is so far on the other side of the mountain to all the other caches we have not found yet. TFTH

Couldn't seem to find this one

Sadly this one was missing, and unfound by the last few caching teams. Unfortunately we are going to have a blue sad face on our maps until it is replaced, and dalerious and I can return to find it. Luckily we’ve picked up 3 extras on the way to complete the gap towards our 100.

TeamHP

Sadly aussie fun seakers and I did not find this one

No smiley here for us today out with little blue wren.
Had a good look but DNF. Our 3rd DNF. For the whole weekend.
Will try again thanks anyway.

Found on 1 Jul 2018 at 1:52 pm.
Since today was not raining I decided to head up here to complete a couple of challenges I was working on and the whole family decided to come. This speeded up a few of the searches instead of being by myself. We only had 3 hours but managed to get just over 50 finds in and a lunch break so it worked out well.
It wasn't too busy up here today with cars passing by but a lot of dirt bikes and trailers parked everywhere. Even a couple of people getting some free firewood in the old logging areas. A couple of bushwalkers as well and even a couple of guys testing out there petrol powered remote control cars.
We had a couple of DNF's probably because of the limited time we had...if we had found nothing in a couple of minutes we moved on just so we could complete the 50 I needed today.
Amazing change of scenery from number one up into the forest section and I wanted to find more but the kids were getting bored and we also needed to get back for my wife to work in our restaurant.
Half way along the section we were doing we noticed a few logs from people earlier in the day, never caught up with them at any stage though. (Sorry about the generic log)
Thanks carkisser & JSando for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

This was one epic series, it had it all, easy finds, tougher finds, lots of dirt road driving, steep hills, bush bashing, open logged forest, deep dense forests and a leech or 2 to throw in the mix. Both me and TheSkype traveled from the ACT to cache in Victoria and this series certainly is one to bump up the tally which I personally believe is only for die-hard cachers. Do not bring a newbie here, it might get tough, zap their mind and they might never want to cache again. We camped at Andersons Garden campground and this was our base for the 3 days we spent caching. Thanks again pleasure to do business and explore this historic part of Victoria. TFTC. Day 2

#2573 Found with the Green-martian, both visiting from Canberra. Geocached in a 4x4 Outback for over 16 hours, over 3 days. Averaged 20 finds per hour hitting 30 finds an hour between #206 to #235. Found a total of 323 caches with several DNFs. What a marvel it was finding this series. All park n grabs with the car and GPS covered in dust. Weather was warm for April. Thanks carkisser & JSando for this epic series of caches.

Late log, sorry. Teamed up with Team Boomajarril during the school holidays with Floss the geo-dog in the back of the 4WD. An awesome day with 60 finds and 2 DNF's.

We love this series so a big thankyou to the CO’s for your time and effort in keeping up the maintenance. Teamed up with CorianderConnected during the school holidays with 4 kids in the back and the geodog (Floss). Signed log as CC & TB. With 60 finds & 2 DNF was an awesome day that we had been looking forward to for months.
# 52 for the day @ 2:10pm. OS&AK found it first.

We decided to have a stab at 100 caches in a day and we did not arrive at the first GZ until 1310. We had a bit of a struggle in the beginning but ended with a good run. We thank the cache owner for the effort. 102 caches in total where number 244 was my 2000th cache. Thanx
