Spotted the obvious hiding spot, but it was empty. Checked the ground in case it had fallen, but no luck.

Evening Walk with a couple of muggles, showed them what it's all about...and ....why not then off to the Pokemon gym for a raid and battle.

Taking advantage of WDC's excellent freedom camping laws, we parked up for the night nearby.
This was a quick find by Viv but Tim had to do the stretch.
Have a favorite for the view.

A calm day but a chill in the air. Would be very quiet if not for the workmen building the new boat ramp. TFTC

After taking way to long on the Peaceful or Pounding, I was hoping for a quicker find here and sure enough, with the good clues, i was able to go straight to it. I'm not that short, but it was still a decent stretch for me. I didn't bother with any climbing after though, as it was almost midnight. TFTC
 
05-May-17
In the area so decided to take the chance and get this one. Luckily I had someone taller so I didn't have to climb. TFTC
 
27-Feb-17
Once I got the right side of the tree. I soon had the cache spotted. TFTC. Great spot for a walk.

{FTF} equall with Macwatt. We re- visited Frog town #1 which had been replaced. I noticed that there was another cache over the bridge that we should get while we were there. Started hunting for it and thought I would look at other logs (end if day done a heap of walking) and couldn't believe it had only just been published. We had to find it now. Back to basics, looked up and there it was. Even better - a clean log. Thanks for the placement Riser5 - how appropriate for us to ftf!!!!

(FTF)After doing the controversial frogtown cache KL said let's hop over to the North and grab a cache that's close by ...parked at the bridge and walked across and as we approached GZ I noticed that this cache had only just been released ....so thought maybe we will be in luck for an FTF we searched around and used the clue height as a guide KL said I think it maybe up there and being the taller of the two I reached up and bingo ...and a lovely clean log ...this was a great boost to us to grab an FTF so far away from home and a great end to the day with a nice cold beer cheers and thanks for a typical sneaky Riser5 hide in lovely picturesque area
