It was not a good day today, as this was my 5th of 5 DNF.This area is really overgrown and full of dead branches. As it has recently been found, I will be back to do a better check.
Looks like there was a small fire at GZ since my last maintenance. I have replaced today.
Maybe its just because were newbies, but we lifted every log and couldnt find it
My 5.5yr & i had fun looking for this treasure. She had a hard time choosing a gift.The pen supplied did not work so we could not write in the log book.
Shame that this one is broken. I will try and get out this week to replace. Thanks for letting me know.
Awesome hidden area. We have lived in the Vines for 3 years and never knew this place existed! Thanks.
All 5 found. Nice easy series. Lovely walk on a beautiful day with the dog in tow.

Log is a bit wet when I found it but still intact. Logged our names. We found all the caches. Great series! Thanks!

Came back to have a redo with thd kids, ket lots of treasure as it seems lots of people taking and not swapping
Thanks very much for the series, lovely morning in between rain for a walk and the kids first "treasure hunt", a favourite point to finish off
Thanks for the great find it was a blast looking for it and we nearly gave up but then my sisters boyfriend saw it under the bark 10/10
Kids wanted to head out for a bit of geo fun so off we went. We had these 5 in the GPS and one more just to make sure they all got a couple of turns with the gps each. This was the first stop of the day. We enjoyed this series. Tftc

Sorry guys, I was a little off-base with that unexpected last move. Managed to get out today with the trusty GPS and take an accurate reading. Happy hunting!

Someone has set up camp at the previous spot and delightfully used the cache as a latrine.... That's a first...
I have relocated further up the track and is now only a couple of steps off the path. Hoping the coordinate are ok, as taken with my phone - as I wasn't expecting the above! Hopefully will get out with a proper GPS soon, but happy to have corrections in the meantime if someone gets there before me.
Note: there is a large blackened tree that has a beehive in it, located between the old spot and the new when heading West on the track. They don't seem to bother anyone, but just a precaution.

Placed a NEW container today a bit further down the track, see previous. Happy hunting.
Messaged owner as it was open further down the track and someone had ransacked it
Temporarily disabled as I've had a report the container is damaged. Should be back up and running by midweek.
What a great series. We vote for another series by you guys. We have had loads of fun.

Didn’t find this one, was in a bit of a rush due to it getting dark but may try again later?
Thanks so much for the good bushland walk. We really enjoyed it.
