Cache has been replaced. Same sized cache, same coords, in a slightly different spot. Good to go.
Two DNFs in succession.No luck even after a long search with two of us and four previous finders!
As expected, no sign of the cache in the area. Now replaced. Same size but different container.
Found this one accidentally- which prompted us to download the app! 2 little Geocaches are now keen for more.
Good hide I went camping then went on a walk with some friends and found it tftc
On a walk with a client, who is just getting into geocaching. When I got to GZ, I was absolutely positive that I have found this one before, but I must have forgotten to log it With a new log book, I couldn't check the date, so I've signed it as a new find. All good at GZ TFTC
We've attempted this one before on a couple of occasions but came away empty handed. I think it may have been at a time when it was missing as today the cache was found straight away. We then headed off down the track for some more caches with a goose and a rat. All the while, the sky was increasing in darkness and looking more and more ominous. TFTC!Cheers,The Hancock Clan
No wonder I could not find it at first. It was on the ground, empty, about 8m from GZ. No log, I added a few pages in a ziplock bag.
Second time lucky after a walk over and around Single Hill. Spotted it straight away.
After a false start at a walk a little further down we realised our mistake and began the steep little walk down. Cache was pretty obvious on arrival, and we soon had it in hand. Replaced as best we could, so hopefully it is a little better hidden now. TFTC!
Finally found this one on our second time looking. Turns out all we needed was for little sister to have a look! TFTC!️
Found today while out caching with Zozetta. We began the day at Lauderdale where we did ‘The Path To Madness’ series, then we went to Single Hill where we found four and then went back to Lauderdale to get a multi and a couple of traditionals, although one of those was a DNF. We found seven traditionals and two multis ending up with nine finds and two DNFs. A fun day out with many quality caches found.
Zozetta found this one while I searched the wrong spot. Cache is in good condition.
Thanks for the cache Lil Rafa!

TFTC! Lovely little bridge - and also there’s a talented ceramic artist nearby from the looks of it.
I’m not sure wether it was the correct one that I found but I saw something sticking out of the ground, it looked like a Geocache but couldn’t find it. I counting it as a find but who knows?
Took us a while but we found it. Please update the hint and difficulty, as the cache was moved by a previous Geocacher (see recent activity). Tftc.
I stopped on my walk to look and followed the clue but couldn’t find it. Is it possible it’s been washed out after some of the heavy rain we had last month?
Cache was completely squashed. We used a key and brute force to reshape it. It was fully exposed. We positioned it better in the wall. No leaf litter hiding now but rocks. Looks like work has been done on this site.
Found cache in open view and squashed. Fixed as best as possible and replaced in wall. Good hunting
Lovely views and great bridge work was worried as I approached as recent tractor work had dirt piled up along the arch but luckily still clear TFTC
First one I've ever found . Was looking in entirely the wrong spot until it finally caught my eye. Forgot to bring a pen tho lol.
Well this was the first time I'd been caching in a few weeks now, with me staying at home for the Mega on the mainland and missing all the fun, today the goose drove for the second time in a row and picked me just after 9.
We headed down to Cremorne after getting a coffee on the way, we started off and could see it was going to get busy as the weather was perfect, after grabbing a newish one we had missed in Cremorne we started up hill on the trail and after a short diversion to the top of the hill to get Calverts Hill cache and the GCA Trig Point we completed the WW series and started back, the beach this time was busy but they were all busy in the right place for us to find the fortress before we headed back to the car.
Next it was over to another beach to collect two new caches and one I had missed for many years but fixed that today after a good search.
Thanks for the caches.

Out and about with both Roadies today. We wandered down the path, looking out to the fantastic coastline as we went. When we got to GZ we had to wait for a very friendly and chatty walker, as well as a bike rider. With 3 of us looking, RoadieR finally made the find and as he extracted the container from its very nice hidey hole I saw another container sitting in the same spot. The mystery of the missing cache was solved perhaps? Anyway we signed both logs and put both caches back together. Thanks Lil Rafa - great spot!
Out with tassietan for a caching morning. Having tackled the Single Hill caches we looked around for a few other close ones.
Wandered down the hill and found the area. Had to delay the final search a few times as the track is pretty popular.
RoadieR soon had the cache in hand...and then had another! Seems there are 2 containers here??! We signed both logs and put them both back.
Loved the stone work on the bridge.
Thanks for the cache/s Lil Rafa.

this one was gone. replaced with new cache. please remember to byo pen, rehide as found with natural cammo.
Don’t know if it has been moved or not looked pretty much in the spot where it says it was bad have a feeling that’s been stolen -Not too happy
Afternoon run after busy day with conference at work. Too much screen time this week. Some sea breeze to freshen me up and some caches. Nice find here. Thanks
I was a bit scared with the wind blowing on the track and good hide but it’s not really hidden in the leaves. TFTC
Another cache on the Clarence Coastal Trail: Roches Beach to Seven Mile Beach (which is a great walking trail with superb views). Easy find with the hint provided .. thanks Lil Rafa.
Quick enough find after looking at hint. Was too tired from a full day of caching to bother scratching around properly esp as track was very busy with muggles! 11th of the day all on foot walking around this beautiful coastline!! Did over 20 000 steps! Was loving it!!
Awesome hide! Although the hint is very misleading and inaccurate oops ). I'm not sure if this is due to other cachers hiding elsewhere or if the hint hasn't been updated from the last cache. Found it anyway but got all spiked up by thistles for nothing! Oh well, great end to my walk just as the sun sets . Tftc
I used this as a turning point during my run from 7 Mile Beach. I found the cache fairly quickly and was on my way again. TFTC.
This was a nice quick find and a lovely walk from our Christmas accommodation at Orana. TFTC
Wow awesome view and beautiful breeze cool...
Enjoyed walked on track to GZ, nice old historical bridge..
Easy spot and sign the log with good dry..

Walking past today and found the cache out in the open. Put back at GZ and made a bit more secure with a few rocks to keep it safe and in place.
Great location to hide a cache, we love these little stone bridges.
Thanks for the cache Lil Rafa.
We continued on with the bear so he could find the Australian caches along this beautiful walking track.

April Fool's Day - what a great introduction to caching on Tasmania's South Arm. Brilliant views brought to us by geocaching.
Satellites today had our GZ 6 metres NNW of where we found the cache.
Thanks to 'Lil Rafa' for placing this cache on the geo-gameboard.

We walked the trail today in both directions - what a beautiful view. I am totally amazed by Tasmania.
As a small highlight, my girlfriend was swimming at the seven miles beach - as the only one But ok, she has Russian roots...
We collected this cache on our way back to Lauderdale and caught some last rays of sun.
Too sad the we have got to leave tomorrow already - she flies out to Brisbane, I'll go back to Melbourne.
Thank you very much for placing a cache here, it was fantastic to stay at this spot for a while!

Found on a caching trip to Hobart - enjoyed the walk in this area.
An easy find at GZ.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

I am loving the track that runs along the coastline here. Mountain-bikers delight. I'm new to this area and track so it was exciting to ride it whilst caching along the way [^]
The cache was found quickly thanks to the very useful hint. I was gonna go wandering a bit according to my GPS [:o]
