Think kids keep pinching this one. Time to go!

Unfortunately today this cache was to good for us. We did stop and make ourselves a cup of tea and had a snack while checking out the area. We will be back.

Dnf

Assuming it's magnetic on the tourist sign as the hint implies there's only a few places it can be. I know it's small but we couldn't find it.

Yippqqaa

I'm wondering if the cache has been removed

After stopping at a bakery nearby for supplies we were able to do a quick park and grab here. Didn't know that Lindsay had done art here so thanks for sharing. Also realised Creswick has a lot of unfound caches for us! TFTC

Quick find by geomum G. TFTC

We are in Ballarat for a few days CRR (Caching, Rest, Recreation) and predominantly to do the Geotour, today I'd like to say we were out early ready and raring to get those caches...but...yeah nah...holiday mode....we ambled out of the van and made our way leisurely down the street en route to Ballarat. Log was full so we replaced with a crisp new one. Interesting bit of history here..TFTC

Tftc

Really cool

Found it it was easier then expected Tffc

Still there

Think it got muggled

Very disappointed, spent 30 minutes with my family to only find out that it is gone. Kids were very disappointed. Someone must have nicked it. Please replace it

Found while on a trip to Ballarat and beyond from Adelaide. Log is very full. Squeezed SMM around number 20

The monkey was invited to the GF by her goal umpire brother who flew over. Her tix were going to be in excess of $800 so i offered to drive her over. As things do with 19yo, the car filled up with excited friends along for the ride. Hoping to grab a heap of LGAs, virtuals and letterboxes for challenges I’m working on.

Thank you for placing this for us to find. Thank you for contributing to the geo map and maintaining when required. TFTC

Quick lil find. Letting you know log is over full

found it! thanks for placing it. Not able to sign, needs new paper.

Very frosty morning here in Creswick. I had a few minutes up my sleeve before a meeting so a quick park and grab took place. Sooo much history in this tiny little town!!

Log book is full so I was only able to sign as DH.

Thanks for the cache

Found with Gnome5580 on a rainy day of caching and it was nice to have a find after a couple of DNFs before it! TFTC!

It's always great to read about another snippet of Aussie history.
Thanks for the find

Nice one

Quick find on way through town. Tftc

Found with Adam

Cool

Nice quick find. Thanks

A fabulous day perusing the books in Clunes, honey, potatoes, ice cream, playground all topped off my some terrific pizzas in Creswick. How to top off the great day? Why a geocache of course! It's been a long time between finds, but I found a suitable candidate and we stopped off on the way home for an easy find. I was confident I knew where it was, but when I didn't lay my hand on it instantly I was worried by Geojo had gone. I needn't have worried, it was there all right. Thanks GemmaSistema.

50th cache yay

Great end to a day in Creswick learning about the Lindsay family. TFTC

Found while in town for some errands. TFTC

Arrived in Creswick with the intention of bike riding the Goldfields Track over 3 days. Had time to explore the town centre and find a cache. This cache was on the way back to our accommodation and after a quick search was located. We need to come back and explore more of the history within the town and nearby.

Found by Rebel Acts

Some good friends had decided to head to Ballarat for a few weeks so I decided I needed a break and joined them, we had a great time out caching as well as sharing stories and laughs around a meal or two. I really love the area of Ballarat there is so much history and I am sure it has the largest population of Oak trees in the Country.

This is one of the caches found today.

Some caches logged as RASP rebel acts &Ski pair.


Thanks GemmaSistema for the cache.

With work encouraging us to take some holidays and Mr SKI having quite a few weeks up his sleeve it was time to take another short break and do some sightseeing and caching in parts of Victoria we seldom visit.
This time we decided it would be Ballarat. There is a wide variety of cache types and quite a number of Adventure Labs to do, so the area is quite attractive. And that doesn't include the historical and interest aspects as well.
We organized to meet up with some friends while there so we would have the opportunity to do some joint as well as solo caching.
We have already had some great adventures on a few challenging caches that generated a lot of fun and as usual always good to find some pre-solved puzzles.
All logs signed as SKI Pair, RASP (Rebel Acts & SKI Pair or SP depending on size of logs and availability of space.

Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache GemmaSistema.
**SKI Pair****

We found it, but couldn't open the container?

Yes

Clever

Quick find, clever!

Great clue! TFTC

Hurray! Guarded by a black spider

Such a clever cache!

Easy one

Quick find, had to look twice to see it, TFTC

Out for a mental health break. Checking out the area and some caches. Great spots. Thanks for placing the cache. TFTC

Cursed, a tiny tiny micro. A quick find nonetheless in a lovely area. Thanks for bringing me here, it's lovely to learn some history about a place driven passed a million times. TFTC!

Our first ever geocache find. Super sneaky little sucker! Thank you!

Cheers BUSHRATZ

Easy find

Found....much quicker find than the last cache. TFTC

Found it. Staying at the Creswick caravan park. Thankyou

Quick find. TFTC

Stopped by this cache on our way back from St Georges Lake towards Ballarat. Nice easy find and some interesting local history. TFTC!

It was an interesting information board for this cache and a quick find. The Lindsays have certainly been a major part of Creswick history. Thanks to GemmaSistema for the cache.

Sneaky little cache! Enjoyed reading the history. TFTC!

TFTC and the art too.

Gemma! Gah!
It did not defeat us this time haha. Gorgeous spot.

Pretty quick find by Alexikatty. Tftc

Nearly killed me

First nano find loved it

After an early (!!!) morning breakfast OHC, GT37, Papi4506 and I set off to follow the goldfields trail and surrounding caches.

A quick find on the way to the ad lab

Thanks GemmaSistema for the cache.

This was a nice quick find for us today. Thanks for the lesson and the cache.

With the whole OSHFAM clan in tow, we set off from home to Creswick to check out the Market before making our way to Ballarat for the Geo Tour Event.

No one wanted to get out of the car after walking the market, so it was up to me to go make the find. Convenient to be able to park the car so close to GZ. A very quick look and the cache showed itself to me.

Whilst the cache was in good condition, the log book was totally chockers full. Luckily I carry spares and replaced it with a clean fresh one.

Interesting character Percy and a man of artistic talent.

Thank you for the cache here GemmaSistema

One final cache before we head out of Creswick, always enjoy visiting TFTC
