Checked cache location and it appears to be missing. Sad I will attempt to recreate the cache in the near future. Thank you.

Going by some past logs i [discreetly between Muggles] checked the obvious spot and widened the search for the spot between a rock and a hard place but unfortunately came up empty handed today, Sat 3 Aug.

It sounds like a great cache so i will return here again one day for another go when the Muggle factor is less intense lol Big Grin

Thanks for the challenge anyways, OneHandAway Smile

This was an excellent cache hide. The cache container had been constructed with great thought abd placed so that ut blended very well into the immediate environment. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks for the cache.

Found this one today. A great cache to find on good friday. Tftc

Fave point from me nice work. And it’s not a tiny bison. This is awesome!
Parislaura is so right this is so dead quiet on Good Friday compared to the working week.
So quiet actually it’s making me kick myself for not being able to think which other high-muggle zone caches I should also revisit! TFTC
 
11-Apr-19
We’ll be back! Only live around the corner and can return when muggle tide not so high

Awesome thanks!

I found this one while in the general area for another cache today. Nice hide. Fortunately not too much muggle activity around here today, which made for a quick and easy retrieval. Thanks OneHandAway for the cache.

Found it!
 
18-Jan-19
Seeing as I had to head up north to pick up a uni textbook, I decided to do some caching as well, specifically targeting some solved puzzles. An enjoyable afternoon was had as a good swag of caches was found, though part of me wishes I had solved these back when I was working in the area. At least this way it made the trip out this way worth it.

Cache #1952. Tried 6 caches today, and found 4. This was the second find.

After an appointment in Mawson Lakes, I found this cache on my way back home. Parked near the suggested parking area, and walked to GZ. Found a suspect object, checked, and there is the cache!

Nice design. No wonder so many favourite points. Took nothing, left nothing. Signed the log book, and put it back.

Thanks for the cache, OneHandAway.
 
17-Dec-18
Few muggles around but they all just passed by, no one would like to stay under the strong sunlight for long time certainly. TFTC
 
17-Dec-18
I went for a leisurely stroll around the lake to grab this cache. As you would expect, there were plenty of walkers out and about so I had to wait a bit for a break.
Once the coast was clear I went to investigate something out of place - yep, that was it!!

Thanks for the cache.

Out with earthlight and one half of The X-Trailers (Gwen) after attending an event. What else do you do on a hot evening... go caching
This is a neat cache. I know this style well... I have several myself. I hope to find more of your hides in the near future

Plenty of muggle activity about today. Tried to be as stealthy as possible. Nice camo and nice hide. Interesting to see how many large skinks were cruising around. TFTC!

08-Jul-18
Wow that’s a beauty, and a nice spot too. If I have any FPs left I will leave one, or return with one. Took the opportunity to photograph a trackable I am carrying, while dodging many muggles doing the circuit. Cheers and many thanks

A stroll around the lake today took me past the regatta that was underway on the lake Smile
The model yachts are rather soothing to watch [^]
On the other side of the lake,
only the ducks and grebes were keeping an eye on me.

The clever little cache took me a few minutes to spy.
And even when I spied the right spot,
I still didn't think it would be the right spot,
until I tried to move something Red Face

Heading home after a CITO and a Nexy trail hike, Owl decided to detour to a cache. Or two. Another one that had popped up while she wasn't looking. And a nice hide. Favourite point territory which is a good way to start your cache hiding career!
 
14-Apr-18
A Rat and a Snake went to the SAGA awards.
They decided to pick up a few caches on the way home.
This was a quick find by the slithering Snake. TFTC
 
14-Apr-18
A quick stop on the way home from the SAGA event. Something looked a bit odd and sure enough a cache was found. Log signed and returned. Took TB. TFTC
 
09-Apr-18
Dropped in a bit of love in the form of a TB.

This is really cool, if you know about geocaching you should be able to spot it straight away and is a favourite for me! On my uni break I came over to collect some points for the planet challenge! Cache is in great condition TFTC

An interesting spot to visit and we hadn't realised they had built houses over here Red Face.
Quickly spotted by Mrs DISK while Mr DISK was checking out the nearby SPOR [B)].
Neat hiding spot Smile. TNLNSL.
Thanks OneHandAway.

Coords spot which made for a quick find in the obvious spot.
A nice spot for a sit and ponder as muggles abound around here!
Good work on the cache...

Found during a lunchtime walk where I managed to avoid lake walkers, lake loiterers and radio controlled boat operators. TFTC for the well constructed clever cache.
 
17-Feb-18
Well that was fun and very clever. Thanks

Spotted what I hoped was the hide on approach, and yes it was, very nice work. No muggles around so it was a quick sign and back to the car to find I had a flat Sad
Thanks for putting it here OneHandAway

A nice little hide. Thanks for the cache OneHandAway. Found on 13 Feb 2018 at 10:25 pm. Find #5788.

An excellent cache, absolutely had me fooled. I was way off in the wrong direction while my companions made the find. Really surprised this one doesn't have more favourite points to be honest.

Found on a night out with my usual Tuesday night caching crew of Moneydork, AnyMules and SEMIK. TFTC OneHandAway!
 
12-Feb-18
What a clever cache. Well done. Love your work. I am sure a duck was watching. Somewhere. Somehow.
 
12-Feb-18
Fantastic hide, very clever. We were lucky to meet the cache owner who was doing a bit of maintenance. TFTC OneHandAway!
 
12-Feb-18
Great hide, You have to be careful as a lot of muggles around and watching. I went to retrieve it a few times but had to stop and pretend I was texting. TFTC.
 
12-Feb-18
Just met JessBenAwesome3 at the cache whilst replacing a zip lock bag. Nice to meet you!
 
11-Feb-18
Out & about with CPwanderer today caching after Moneydork cache streak event.
We were here at the right time, the hint and the coordinates pointed us in the right direction.
A second attempt had the cache uncovered, very clever OneHandAway
Thanks for bringing us here Smile

Out and about with H423L. I will evenually spell this caching name correctly. I had a small mission for the area so this was cache number one. Love your work here.

Thanks to OneHandAway and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet!

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Saw this one published last night but was in the middle of an errand that I could not stop so FTF went begging.
This morning cache for the day required so decided to head for this one. Detour on the way to work . Parked nearby as directed and wandered over to GZ. Spotted the hide as I approached. Retrieved cache and took it for a walk to sign the log due to all the muggles wandering by signed log and replaced in its clever hide.
Pretty happy with silver 13 hours after publishing. Favorite point for this one as well.

711 metres away from my work desk. OneHandAway you must have a big drill bit. Lovely location and someone from work walked past without recognising me while I signing the log. I would have been here yesterday but had a dentists appointment. Ouch. Thanks for the lovely cache.
 
08-Feb-18
Ttrogg, I had a dental visit at midday for an extraction. Didn't feel well afterwards so wasn't there to grab this new one.

Final check of emails before leaving work revealed this new cache only 2.7km from work. Would have been rude not to attempt the FTF. Wasn't expecting a blank log but there it was. Lovely spot for a cache, inventive hide. TFTC FP added (although fear your container may not take long to perish). #FTF# first one in a very long time.
