Dorset Circuit 12 - Par 4 Croydon, Victoria, Australia
By Mincka on 29-Jul-16. Waypoint GC6PB6Z

With some recent puzzles released in the Maroondah LGA, I discovered that it is an area that I've barely cached it. As such, we thought we would do the Dorset Recreation Reserse Parkrun and then geocache in the area.After finishing parkrun, Huntress went off for another 3 plus laps while 999HK, puppy, and I did another lap collecting the geocaches. We obviously went different ways so we could bump inside each other a few times.Found this one right on 9 am, and straight after we spotted a tiny rabbit run across the path. Luckily, the puppy didn't see and give chase.Thanks for the cache, Mincka.Hunter

Good spot! Easy one tho

Continuing on with my streak, this cache also ticked a Date hidden space in my calendar. Thanks for the cache!

TFTC!! Good cache!

Hh

Love the dran

Easy

I looked everywhere but I dont know if its on the other side of the fence

Cache is still in place. I have retrieved it from the drain. Please replace on the side as to avoid it falling down.

My hands are muddy and for nothing. Spent 10 minutes looking at the grate and then another 10 digging holes

Nicely camouflaged.

Nice quick find TFTC

Using the hint made a quick find. No one on this section of the course or path.Thanks for the fun

Thank you!!

Thanks for the cache! Went treasure hunting with the nieces again and they had a ball! Great way to spend an Easter weekend

Thanks!

Thank you for the hint

Nifty little spot. TFTC

Fun spot, easy to find

TFTC

Found it. TFTC

Took a minute, but got there in the end.

Nice Cache!

We really needed the hint this time, but then found it in minutes. Quite the minimalist cache!

this one has a very nice container

I have placed a log in a snap lock bag as the container is missing. I will place new container there shortly.

But couldnt get it out. Too many sticks stuck in the hole.

Found it

Out for the day with ConnieandRick enjoying a stroll around this reserve, finding caches including this one as we go... figuring out how to grab this cache involved some lateral thinking on my behalf.

Out with TIZ13, this circuit was a nice walk away from the traffic and noise. Thanks.

#1452 - A lovely overcast but warm Saturday morning to be out exploring new areas for some Caching. After a little bit of seething and scavenging, the cache was soon in hand.Tftc

I found it, but it was wedged pretty far in, so unable to access it and sign in

TFTC. Need a stick to push it out

What a beautiful day! It would have been churlish not to get out and about geocaching so mrs frilk and I grabbed the geo-pooch and came to this circuit. We had previously found the earlier caches however that seemed a lifetime ago before the world went crazy!this actually was a Par 4 as the first 3 attempts to get the cache failed however on the fourth we got the cache in our hands. TFTC.

Hard to get out But thanks for the challenge

Found, but tough work getting it (thank you small stick)

That was really good

Thanks

Took 10 mins to get out

I haven't been out this way very much, so I headed to the Library event, then further afield. Finding was easy. Extracting was hard.



Thanks to Mincka for the cache.

Easy find
Sticks came in handy for extraction

2nd for the day, on to the next

Found! Helpful stick places behind location for others!

Careful you don’t drop it!

Found, used stick to get

Found it but we couldn’t get it out… no logging for us!

TFTC natural tool of the trade worked extremely well after poking fingers in and then thinking bugger that will make it hard to get. All safe and dry

Found

Very clever and cool! Found it!

Nice cache. Took a bit of thinking, but got there. Make sure to use your extraction tools

It was tricky to find .

A bit cold and windy, so not many people out today. This series is close to home and so I figured a nice easy circuit was a good plan for today. Had to hang back a bit as a lady with her dog kept stopping and starting ahead of me, and I didn't want to overtake her only to stop and find a cache.
Needed to use a tool of nature to push it out.

Threw me for a loop, I sure some passers by must have thought that we'd dropped our phones

Thanks!

Great one! Needed teamwork and a long stick

Found it but it's well pushed in... so signed by sight!

Found with tara_jaye & jackst 2000

Jackst2000 with tara_jaye and Jojozepp found the right hole

Good hide! Found with jackst2000 and jojozepp… nice day for a walk!

Log was pretty damp but managed to sign. Nifty one to retrieve.

Well hidden! Thank you

Found it!

Found with jac_olantern

Done

Could not find this one

A nice day today for some bike caching around this neat circuit - a very efficient and enjoyable way to collect them all. A nice series of easily found caches (except for the one missing one) and retrieved (except for the one that required some ingenuity).

This was the most interesting of the caches in this circuit and was the one requiring a bit of creativity. Nothing difficult and good fun. TFTC

I came over to Montrose for an Earth Cache this morning and after finding a few more caches there... and lunch... I was now starting for home. I still had plenty of time to spare so I decided to take a walk around the **Dorset Circuit**.

I parked near the Golf Club and set off clockwise... almost back now and this ninth cache was the trickiest. It had been tucked in too far and I couldn't reach it so I went for a wander to find a suitable *extraction tool*. Fortunately I found something that would do the job and I was able to sign the log.

Thanks **Mincka** for the cache and the series.

This was a fun one, best of this trail so far. I quickly located the cache, but extraction was another matter. A few moments and some lateral thinking later, I had the log in hand. Unfortunately cache is a bit sodden inside.

Happy to report that the cache itself is in good condition, but the log could certainly do with being dried out a bit.

Tftc

Additional note: no extraction tools are needed

Almost gave up but found it

Love these ones. Good for younger people.

Found, thanks

Found tnx

Oh what a fun find. I was really scared I had gotten it stuck. I was really nervous that I would’ve had to tell the CO and then be shunned from the game forever. I waited for muggles to pass and poked around some more and soon had the cache in hand. Perfect spot!

I found it and I left it alone
