TCT - Wattle Traralgon, Victoria, Australia
By Team Loesch on 27-Jul-17. Waypoint GC79GYJ

We are on a caravanning trip around Australia seeing the sights and finding a few caches along the way. Today we had arrived in town and need to get the car serviced and we were going to visit the caravan show. After dropping the car off, We got the bikes out and I headed out to find some caches and then head to show a bit later. Went slight astray getting to this one and required a ride across the grassy patch to get back on track. Once at GZ the cache was a nice quick find.Thanks for placing this cache here for us to find

A short trip into Gippsland with the deadly treadly for some caches.I started in Traralgon on the TCT trail, then onto the TST trail.Started around the wrong tree, but eventually got there.Thanks, Robmc.

A quick find on this one. The clue fits on this only if you are lying flat on the ground.

TFTC and greetings from Tassie

Did a quick bodgy fix and hint now rings true

Quick find. The wire is broken

Treated us nicely and nice to hear the water in the background

What a lovely location for a cache - with the sounds of the running creek and the birds chirping. TFTC.

In Traralgon for another Traralgon Marathon, so while Huntress was off on a long run, I snuck off from my photography duties to collect a few geocaches. The plan was always to get this series after doing the Traralgon Parkrun, but experience has taught that its hard getting caches on the Parkrun track itself. As such I thought it might have been quite first thing today, bit was I wrong. It might have been a lovely, if foggy morning and lots of people were out walking early.

Nice quick find with good coordinates

Thanks for the cache Team Loesch
Hunter

Thank you. Excitement rapidly built up in us.

Container and log all good here

Sometimes you should just go with your instincts not the gps lol TFTH

Another quick find along the trail. Nice bit of the river here. TFTC!

Over from Melbourne and these on this trail are close to where im staying so wanted to give them a go! TFTC

Great placement

Cool! Didn't have a pen to log.

A mild morning greeted us here in Traralgon.
Just perfect for caching with a good bit of cloud cover.
Thanks to Team Loesch for this cache.
Lots of friendly people out walking this morning.
A pleasant spot to find some caches.

A quick find and sign. A bit quieter up this end of the walkway.

Found it - left a purple shell

I actually did find this cache but it was on the ground. Mighty long log inside which was still in great condition. I put it back where it probably should be hanging from on a bit of tie wire.

And the grandy finds another one straight away

Tftc. Im loving this creek

Little thing big height

This one had me baffled as I walked towards it as my GPS was showing GZ to be across the river but step by step GZ corrected itself. Muggle alert on way out - had me pretending to be super engrossed with the magnificent trees- hopefully I passed as a botanist enthusiast.

A good easy find TFTC

TFTC!

A nice quick find here agood hide
Signed log and replaced where found
Thanks for placing these caches for our enjoyment Team Loesch

Down here for a short holiday with tag along and out and about riding. We came down on the train with our bikes.
While he moved on I stopped to search. Late logging sorry.
Thanks for this hunt Team Loesch

A quiet part of the trail and a quick find

Found

Found it

Beat him to it finally! TFTC

Haha, Spencer found it first but only by physically stopping me searching at the GZ. He’s pretty much fully converted now. TFTC

I began by looking in the wrong tree, but the cache was soon in hand after widening my search area. Thank you!

Out for afternoon walk along the creek track. Thanks for a great series Team Loesch.

Cache in place and log dry

Nice sunny winters day for a stroll and some cache maintenance

No good

I Just had time to go from Newman Park north to the end of the TCT run on a cold windy afternoon but fortunately the rain held off until I was on my way back. Thanks Team Loesch.
Peasy!

Yay another find tflc with pp7

Found with mansgirl. Thanks For The Cache

Found almost straight away.
The tree is starting to consume the wire. It’s becoming embedded.

On Sunday we decided to tackle the Traralgon Creek Trail with the dogs and three geokids. We enjoyed our walk, the many playgrounds along the way, and all the clever caches. An impromptu discovery of an ice-cream truck at the northern end of the trail was a welcome treat for all. Thanks so much for bringing us here and for all the hides

Found with margaretforr1987

Love the hint, great hide tftc

In Traralgon for a couple of hours waiting for my wife so I decided to finish this series.
This was a quick find with nobody about
TFTC

Nice hide and a good clue!!

??

Nice easy find this one, thanks for the clue.
Done some parkruns here, just walkind today. TFTC

Thanks

The Sun had come out and living in Baw Baw shire we were not locked down so I decided to head out for a day out of the house and a nice walk along the TCT trail, Gippsland has some great locations to visit and lots of caches that have not been found in awhile, so with my new caching gear gloves, sanitizer and mask I ventured out, I had a great time touring around the area finding caches and exploring new places. The Wattles were in full bloom and looked fantastic.

Thanks Team Loesch for the cache.

Beautiful area
Clue helped lots
Thank you

Find #5 !! Loving the series, cache in good condition, lots of room for logbook entries.

Great find,

Found in place, log dry, coords checked. Keep on caching

Found it with the clue.

Another nice day in Gippsland. Collect some smiles. TFTC

Tftc

Enjoying the TCT series today. We used the hint and the cache was quickly found. TFTC Team Loesch.
Chiefton

Took me a little while to find the right place. TFTC

Quick find. Tftc

Geo kid was getting tired so we made this one our last for the day.

A quick find with log in good condition. Camo has come off however. Such a shame to see the river so covered in rubbish. Tftc

Mind the long grass!!

Bit of backwards and forwards trying to work out where I should be and trying to avoid raising suspicion from nearby muggles. Got there in the end. TFTC

Quick find TFTC

Escape from Melbourne for a little break and caching day in Traralgon for the day. Beautiful weather and nice park to walk around. Easy to find. Thanks Team Loesch for placing the cache

Easter morning maintenance run log and container in good condition here.

CJJAHC

Great hide tftc

With the name a dead giveaway, we set our sights on the target and made our way over. Well, what followed was my two pranksters yelling out 'snake!' at every opportunity. The pressure was on to find this one quickly and get out of there!

Catching up with some very late logs

We had set aside a few days to explore Gippsland with alansee endeavoring to aid him reaching 30,000 finds before the Queanbeyan mega event at Easter.

We visited rail trails, parks, mountains seeing beautiful scenery along the way as well as enjoying some lovely walks as well as some easy drive by's. The weather was mostly kind to us enabling us to search for the caches in comfort

We really enjoyed this the ones that we had time to find in this series today with good co-ords in a vert pretty part of town We will return to finish the rest on another trip.

Thanks TeamLoeschl for placing this series.

Found with Team Crackers. An easy find today.

We are staying at nearby Woodside Beach and had a need to come into Traralgon, with a little spare time on our hands we decided that some exercise would be good for us.
We found all but two of the caches, the one's not found were TCT - Newman Park and TCT - Possum Attack. The majority of the cache hides are up there with the best, they are not a quick grab and sign, a couple did turn out to be the quick grab and sign. I am so pleased that hubby was with me as there was a few that I would never had reached without and aid, today my aid was hubby.

*22 Sep 2018, Found @ 12:16 pm, Find # 8324.*

This was another one I was able to spot quickly.
After the Parkville event was done, I jumped on my bike and went for a ride along this trail to see how many in this series I could find but the real problem I had was that I had broken my cache searching glasses and I only had my reading glasses so anything that was half a metre or more away was blurry with or without the glasses I had.

**Thanks to Team Loesch for placing this cache.**

Another find thanks

Along the path we rode and walked, with the elder spiderling recalling a previous cache's location as we passed. We met a husky as well as a puppy Staffy which was a highlight as we got a pat. I left the spiderlings near the path because of the long grass and steep drop off to the creek and ventured in alone. I first examined the wrong location merely because the beautiful yellow flowers drew me in, then I followed the GPS to the next finding that yet again, this type of hint doesn't apply to me, lol. A cache happily signed and we turned back for the car. TFTC Team Loesch

Found by Mary & David at 1629. Serious real estate envy here, but the cache didn't take long. Our thanks to Team Loesch.

Another easy pickup. Nice series. tftc

Found on a wet and windy day.

YAY - found it on a wet and windy Sunday while out caching with Poiter.h . Thanks Team Loesch - another find on the way to finding the different souvenirs of the Hidden Creatures challenge. Thanks also for the Traralgon Creek Track series - it's been fun to complete it today.

Starting from the south I made my along attempting the TCT trail in the pleasant warm weather. There was a welcome cool breeze coming through and the light was perfect to spot the container.

Thanks to Team Loesch for placing this cache.

After looking first at the wrong tree I found this one as soon as I adusted 5he lication I was looking.

Nice find

??

We arrived at GZ and realised that there was considerable long grass between us and where the GPS indicated the cache to be. So we headed across with care and soon found the container. We signed the log and retraced our steps without any problems. TFTC

We decided to make a start on the TCT today, this being one of the ones on our list. We walked a fair bit of the trail today, glad to find the shady ones for some relief from the sun.

A nice easy find as we seek the caches on the northern side of town.

Thanks Team Loesch for the placement here.

Found today with BigrobV, we have wanted to finish the TCT for ages but had been waiting for the right day. Today was perfect as it was lovely and warm, though I went first in heading to GZ as BigrobV was a little cautions about wriggly sticks and his choice of shorts. I wasn’t worried about wriggly stick potential, but spiders are a whole different story! This cache was found quickly and we wondered how small the tree was when the cache was first placed. Thanks for another creative hide

As NoonaB and I approached GZ I looked down at the long grass... Then to the lower half of my exposed legs.. Shorts.. Why do I always wear shorts when caching.. I know I'm going to go into nope rope (snake) teritory.. But if I don't wander in, I don't get the find. A search soon had us signing the log, I'll definitely be coming back to check on this cache to gauge how quick these trees grow

**# 20328** Found on a fine day out with Ski Pair while staying nearby.
Quite a few muggles around today and a good variety of hides.
Also a few tricky hides and a few evil ones. [:(!]
Thanks for the cache and the series Team Loesch,
***Roostaman***

Today was our second day out caching with our good friend Roostaman in the Traralgon area.
This gave us the opportunity to chase up a range of the newer caches in the area that we have not made the opportunity to look for during our time home and finalise some puzzles we have solved but not followed up on by finding the actual cache.
A short walk on soon had us at GZ. Good coordinates narrowed down the possibilities quickly to one and we were able to soon find the camoed container.
