Short Trip Away Day #1 [23/11] of 3To start my holidays, I decided to head over to Canberra for a short trip away. This trip of course included geocaching. I left home just after 7am and slowly made my way over while finding caches along the way. I had an early lunch at Gold Creek KFC and decided on finding the mini power trail along Majura Ln towards Sutton. A nice easy going PT and it was a nice quiet road for it. Next I found a few caches around Sutton and then I started heading over to motel but not before finding an evil hide by Loci612 plus two other quick finds. Lastly I checked into the motel had dinner and went to sleep. TB visit. A big thanks to the CO for adding this cache to game for the Geocaching community to enjoy. TFTCs! For the second time today, a FP given but I certainly have no idea why though. This was an evil cache. After parking, I made my way over to GZ which lead to a quick find as in spotting it. However getting it into my hand and returning it was certainly NOT. Slowly and surely I clawed across the bridge grabbed it and returned to solid ground to sign it. The first time wasn't too bad but the second time, to replace it, hurt. I'm very, very glad that I didn't drop it. Now it's off the to find list. Now off to the last couple just up the road. Thanks

Spending some time caching around the NSW/ACT southern tablelands with lots of side trips. TFTC. Today was collecting a lot of Wherigos that were solved a long time ago. I remember there being some interesting and obscure questions.A couple of other caches collected as well.Hmm. Did I have enough monkey in me for this one. Decided to use brains instead and soon had the cache down and back up again.

If you want to die doing a cache then this is definitely a cache which would speed up your trip to the pearly gates. It was the easiest cache to find, but how do you get to it? The hint states that a TOTT isnt needed, so again how do you get to it? This required some thinking, and Im not a fan leaving caches like this with a DNF. After checking some logs and a photo from a previous cache finder, it dawned on me how Id retrieve the cache. Alone, now all it needed was to turn into a monkey, back myself and attempt fate. Reaching and grabbing the cache I wasnt in a position to sign it so I had to retrieve to safety whilst holding it, which I did. What a relief but I knew I had to go back and replace it, I held on and slowly made my way back, and replaced. A slip or a mistake would be my downfall but I managed. This was certainly a challenging cache, one to definitely remember. The magnets need to be glued into container, as they tend to move. Great cache CO, tftc

We had been hoping to tackle this one for quite some time. We knew it would be a challenge, and it was! Once we spotted the Hide, we decided to put a plan in place and avoid wet feet if at all possible given the water is pretty cold at the moment.Careful extraction and retrieval, log signed and returned again to its safe place. Great to have a smiley here. Below the traffic, and no one else was any the wiser as to our whereabouts!Adding a favourite point here for the fun and for the challenge. Thanks Loci612Domsky

Out for the day with mogni and joined by Felix II. The main target was the UGC challenages that i haven't stamped yet plus any other interesting or maybe just nearby challenges or caches of any type. Quick find. Found with Mogni. Myself and mogni are headed off to canberra on the " I missed the Capital GeoBash Mega " holiday, since last minute family problems came in to play and we had to adjust our plans by a few weeks. On the way over we targeted multi's, wherigo's and puzzles to make sure we had 25 in each or at least close to that total ( or more ) as possible, getting as many new New South Wales LGA's as possible, the 17th most favourite point NSW cache and every cache size in New South Wales.In the ACT it was getting 2 of the 5 oldest letterboxes, oldest wherigo in Australia, 2nd oldest earthcache ( with a side trip to get the oldest earthcache of course ), and ACT oldest cache too. I also hosted a CITO and planned on getting every different cache type i could and eevry different cache size as well. I also needed 9 more virtuals this trip to get my virtual count over 100. Finally canberra was far enough away from from house to complete the well aged well travelled cacher 0 to 1000 kms with a cache every 10 km's ( i only need 7 more caches to complete )Leaving the ACT it was going via Victoria to get there last active web cam cache and slowly getting a total of 20 finds in each LGA i passed through if i had enough time plus also hosting a CITO in Victoria as well. A busy 11 days. Trust me by the end of the holiday you would have thought the 6 meter ladder weighed more than 13 kg's to amount of times it was used or carried up hills or over creeks. If your cache was found with a broken container/lid it was replaced or if the log was full it was replaced or a extra log if the container was big enough ( except for nano's, do your own maintenance on nano's.

Day 7 of mogni and sir_spectre visit the ACT. Today we joined FelixII for a great day of caching. Lots of variety and it was really helpful with some more eagle eyes spotting those pesky micros high in trees. As per normal if a cache needed a bit of love, it got it. Thanks to Loci612 from mogni

Full time Nomads, travelling around Australia since 2014. Back in Canberra in anticipation of ANZAC day. We were invited to a day out caching with mogni and Sir Spectre which we jumped at the opportunity. (they have lots of TOTT's )We met up at 8am in the fog! Well actually the fog didnt really lift until 10am, certainly the foggiest day we have seen in our few weeks in Canberra.Great day out and about deploying a variety of TOTT's by all members of the teams.TFTC Loci612

Dnf. Had a good look

We were very keen to try find this cache but unfortunately we couldnt even see it after a good 10 minutes of looking and after reading the hint.

Think I need skills or pals that I just dont have today!!

We heard about a Mega in Canberra a year ago. Having never been to the big capital, we booked our accommodation and the planning began.Which caches shall we do? Wow they really love their mystery caches in ACT! Ok, we need to get our thinking caps on and solve some of these puzzles pronto. There were many heads put together to solve some of these and many headaches created along the way.We have made the trek from Adelaide to be here and appreciate the efforts of all those involved to make the Capital Geobash happen.This was a very tricky one. Luckily we got some tips from another cacher there at the same time.

This cache was on bellahappychappys list to do so off we went. Not a easy find, wouldn't of gotten it if it wasn't for bella! Tftc

Went and had a look at this cache thinking it would be too hard.After spotting it, I wanted to try.I went back to the car for the TOTT, and change of clothes.so soon after i had the cache in hand & signed.On placing back, the magnet wasn't holding on to the cache.So back to the car for the caching bag to find a fix for the lose magnet.See the photo on my other log for the fix. the only thing that worked today.Out caching with D@geo my TOTT holder & safety officer.Thank you the hide Loci612

Found with gwd.aussie while attending the Canberra GeoBash. First had a look at this one before deciding to attempt then it was back to the car for a TOTT.Thanks Loci612

That is a favourite point from me.I had a ball getting this after solving the puzzle. Thanks Loci for the placement. And CharisMaree for being my caching support for the find.We are in Canberra and surrounds collecting geocaches in preparation for the Canberra mega which is in a few days super glad to be up here from the Victoria to enjoy this beautiful week and the amazing people that has brought it here thank you so much for this hide logbook and container

Today we found Above and Below on our travels. On a brief visit to Canberra for the Easter Megaso many caches, not enough time! It took a minute to figure out just how! But eventually a cache was in hand.Thanks Loci612 for being part of our geocaching fun.

Done a quick fix after magnet fell off the side of the mint tin. Don't know how long the elastic band will last for may need maintenance soon.Logged with [GCDroid](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gcdroid).

Checked on this one today and all is well & cache is in the correct position! The cache is a traditional, not a puzzle. As per the guidelines:D1: *Easy to find or solve within a few minutes.*The cache is a bright green mint tin, in plain sight & can be found instantly upon arrival, especially if you read the hintThe Terrain rating of 4 is for the retrieval process. You also shouldnt be near the guardrail or the road, only your fingertips should be possibly seen by passing cars Good luck!

Out this morning doing some caches along the CBR series ith DiMorgan. A great morning had by all and the ocassional toot from a passing local. Di and Mr Snakepitters were dropped off to do the Ad lab and this virtual.This was a task for Mr Snakepitters. After locking and clenching everytjhing, he adopted the prone position and extended an arm being guided by Bill who was the cocky for the task. Grabbed and passed to Mrs Snakepitters who did the honours and then the reverse to get it back into position. All done, now to some how get the knee out from between the guardrail and the concrete. All done and off to the next. Suprisingly no one slowed just went buy at the mandatory speed. Fav pointSgned log as DIMERS.(DiMorgan/Snakepitters)Total Caches Found 15625TFTC Loci612

Day 2 camped at Canberra Park for the Mega EventThis morning doing some caches along the CBR series with the Snakepitters. A great morning out, it was good to have a driver that knew his way around the area. We did a variety of cache types, finishing the day at an event by the lake.I can't believe this is only a D1, this was an extremely difficult puzzle to be able to reach.Mr. Snakepitter chose to retrieve this cache & I felt fearful for him, hopeing that he would not fall.Signed log as DIMERS. (DiMorgan/Snakepitters)Thanks Loci612 for placing this cache

Seriously! I shouldve brought my climbing gear and I couldve repelled to this one.If only

I was speaking to CO about what would be a good find in Canberra that isnt far off the highway and he recommended his own. Added it to the roadtrip list and here we are. Parked at the recommended waypoint and then hesitantly waded/jumped through the grass to GZ. There were a few snake-looking holes but luckily no slithery creatures. At GZ it took a little while to actually spot the cache. Hmmm, now how to get to the cache.I initally thought of one unappealing and precarious method and was going to full send it in trust that if CO could do it I can do it. I then remembered a hint to check a log photo for the easiest method, and realised there was another way. Feeling more confident, I decided on the method and then started the walk. It wasn't too taxing, and the passing cars probably couldn't spot me. The hardest part was the challenge I made myself, signing the log in position. It was done, a very shakily OZB was scrawled. I returned the cache, scrambled back and ran to the car. Another one for the D/T, and a fun one at that.FP awarded, thanks Loci

After talking to the previous log, I note the hint was slightly vague and could be interpreted a different way than intended. Apologies for that! Not sure why it wasn’t more specific, so have fixed that Have fun!

Day two of my spontaneous solo weekend of geocaching in Canberra. Was making a find nearby and thought I might come here over for a look. Can't see anything "bright green" anywhere in plain sight. Might have seen something else but it was on "the inside" and I wasn't prepared to shimmy my way across the freezing cold beams this time of day to find out I was wrong so maybe I'll come back in summer with a geokid.
#1532

Shimmied my way out to the cache today to replace the logbook. Given the new container isn’t waterproof unlike the old one that was originally here, I decided to put an inner container to hold the logbook which will keep it dry!

Good luck and have fun! Thanks for all the great logs

Found at 1:23:00 PM

I was driving nearby and saw this one, assuming another tree climb, but decided to stop and have a beak. Once I worked out where the cache was I decided on an approach. Got there and felt for the cache but couldn't get it. Thinking I had miscounted I realised the location wasn't exactly below a post. By the my arms were a bit weakened. I decided on another approach that used my long arms to good effect. Tried a test run in a less precarious position and decided it was doable. Went out and got the cache no troubles.

The whole log is completely soaked based on the nature of the container and no plastic bag. I embossed my initials in the sodden paper, took a pic for proof before replacing the cache in position.

Thanks Loci612

#1052 I have previously been told about this one and it’s always kept me intrigued. Today whilst in the area I spotted how close we were to it and decided it was definitely worth stopping off for. We parked ourselves over at the parking coordinates and made the walk through the grass to GZ where we quickly spotted the cache. The method of retrieval also became apparent shortly after, I soon was halfway out to the cache already. Turtle using his eyes as I was running blind, gave me guidance where the cache was and it was soon retrieved and signed. I’d made my way back to Turtle at this point and sent him out for the return, so in reverse I guided him where to place it. Thanks for the hide here Loci, yet another really enjoyable find!

#2905 After picking up a solved puzzle cache down Yarralumla way, DeadThief and I headed up Majura Road to collect a few more. I was interested in the last few of the Guard series but DT spotted this on the map that we had heard about previously. Certainly worthy of a look. Parked at the provided coordinates and then made our approach through the grass to GZ. Worked out which side of the bridge was required and then spied the cache. DT then jumped into action and made his way out. From the sidelines I let him know when the cache was within reach and had it lobbed to me on the bank. I signed the log while DT made his way back, then indicated I was to do the replacement. So off I go! This time taking instruction from dry ground I made the replacement and confirmed it’s integrity before making my way back. Another fun hide that may not be for everybody but recommended to those that love a little bit of adventure. Thanks Loci612 for another inventive cache placement. Worthy of a favourite from me. TFTC.

Lots of fun with this one. TFTC

That was fun , scary etc.. not for the faint hearted. Worth a favourite point for keeping us entertained.

Log is very damp but unsurprising given it has so much water dripping out around it. Only just signable but may dry out if it eventually stops raining , and the tin is starting to rust but is still good for a while now. Glad that’s done. TFTC Loci612.

So that was ever so slightly terrifying, but very glad I was doing it with others! Wet log but otherwise all good.

Thanks, Loci612!

A little exploring under the bridge gave me a good idea what I needed to do. Ohh dear. Should I or should I not. I’m here now so here I go!
I decided on a plan that seemed reasonable to shimmy across and grab it. But once I was at the cache I had no free hands to sign the log. So back I shimmied. Half way back my arms started to get really tied and I was not sure I’d make it. Somehow I did. A good ten minute rest beside the bridge before I attempted the return. Geez, my arms were burning by the time I finished.
I’m sure there are easier ways to do this, but not used by me today.
Gym session ticked off for today. Thanks for the crazy fun today.

Found with Joolay, Kittykatch and Isopeda.. Had fun retrieving and manahed to return successfully. Tftc

Great to grab this cache today. Dodging traffic !

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache Loci612

Well that was an adventure. Thanks to Isopeda for the reaching but then it fell. Luckily I was wearing sanders which were totally inappropriate for the grassy conditions but perfect for wading. Cache retrieved, signed and returned.
Thanks For getting me out and about Loci612

I had sussed this out a little while back and had decided that a night approach would be best so as to not shock any passers by. From experience I know that there is hardly any traffic here after 10 pm. This cache keeps popping up on the GC browser map when I open it centering on my home location, so tonight, after a long day at work and then back to back zoom meetings at home, it enticed me again, winking from the side of the map.

I hopped in the car and drove out to it. Quickly went below check the exact position of the cache and then went to retrieve it. That was a lot easier than I thought. Not having any cars pass by made it a lot more relaxing. Signed the log and replaced the cache.

TFTC

The cache was found in excellent condition with a dry log and all!

However it was “inside” not “outside” as the hint refers, which would of made it more like a Difficulty 3+ for someone searching as it was concealed rather than in plain sight.

It is now back on the outside and a D1 again, you can’t miss it, it’s bright green in plain sight!

Cache on and good luck

Thanks for the detailed note Davidwazza! Apologies you weren’t able to find it

It should be easily spotted if standing and looking towards GZ, keeping the hint and T rating in mind. In plain sight and not necessarily “hidden”. I will check on this ASAP when I get a chance!

This weekend from 17-21/06/2021, I joined georode and gridge98 in visiting our nation's capital, Canberra for geocaching adventures. We prioritised the higher difficulty-terrain combinations, as well as the more special/unique cache types.
On Thursday, I largely spent the day solo and visited Black Hill lookout, the Botanic Gardens, Australian National University and nearby Canberra Central, and then gridge98 and I walked around the front of Parliament area in Parkes.
Friday was spent completing a few hikes in Goorooyarroo Nature Reserve and Kowen Escarpment Nature Reserve, before then meeting locals at a Friday evening dinner event.
Saturday was predominantly the UFO series in Bullen Range Conservation Reserve, targeting the higher terrain ridge area.
On Sunday, we arose to the morning's CITO event, before returning to Goorooyarroo Reserve for more walking around those hills.
Finally on Monday, gridge98 and I headed north to Yass for the Birds of Australia Wherigo series, a few climbing caches, and returning to ACT completing the UGC series.

Today, we had planned and completed two half-day hikes. Our morning was spent at Goorooyarroo Reserve walking 17.3 km the hilly terrain. After lunch, we headed to Kowen Reserve targeting the CBR Wherigo geoart series, and walked a further 8.3 km up and down some further questionable terrain, before the heavens opened up and the rain fell. We finished the day with a pizza and beer at a Watson meet and greet event where we had a chance to see the locals.

Given this geocache was only a rated Difficulty 1.0, we were surprised to have not seen it upon approach. We were also surprised to not have subsequently seen it after searching around for another 10 minutes, and given the Terrain rating and past logs, we had a strong suspicion where it should be. A PAF was made to a local Geocacher, who mentioned where it should have been, but despite their comment, no evidence of the cache spotted. Alas, we had to walk away empty handed suspecting the cache may be missing. Thanks anyway Loci612 for the cache placement.

Note: After talking to others and the CO further, it sounds like the cache may just be well hidden, but then, perhaps the cache isn't just Difficulty 1.0.

Spent awhile here and got a lot of odd looks from people but DNF

Not a chance of getting this one today.

Logged from cgeo:

Wow nice and hard. signed dsd. a fav from me

Solved these awhile back, then the new ones recently. A few were a lil tricky for a non-Canberrite, but persevered . Only called in help for a cpl.
Got to some of them today and the rest another day... All found relatively quickly, with reasonable co-ords and hints.

Thanks

I was over at majura getting some fuel, and decided to get a Where-i-go and try for the difficult cache on the bridge. two successes. This was not where I saw it the first time I was here. It took a close examination to see, but it was actually easier to get then I expected. Nice to have this one sorted out.

Thanks for the cache Loci612

After a lovely drive to gz, I had a bit of a hunt. I’d heard tales of this cache, and it’s trickiness, and they did not lie. Although I also had a ladder onboard, After looking at the location (easily spotted with its new replacement container) I pondered the retrieval. Eventually I came up with a plan, and with a break in the traffic I performed
A less than dignified grab, signed the log and replaced. Perfect crime.
It’s about time I got around to this one, it was great and not less than I expected.

Field log more to follow
SL TFTC

The original plan was a walk in some of the high country but with some road closures it was changed to GOM's going to the ACT and Yass for a few day walks and caches. PPE, Crash 2079 and myself were doing the CBR WIG's when we spotted this one. The prize took a while to spot and we should have known this was not a good sign. Perhaps I won't say too much more but we got wet, there was a mishap, we went shopping, we hung on for dear life but most importantly our names are in a dry log. TFTC

#4549
Day 3 of caching in the Canberra and Yass regions with a couple of grumpy old mates. Today the plan was to collect the CBR WIG series and do a spot of fishing. Things mostly went to plan.

This was a cache where things didn't go to plan. It was one of the first caches we visited today but didn't manage to sign the log until noon.

After looking from many angles, we spotted the prize but none of us had the energy to get there using muscle power after 2 exhausting days of caching. We had brought a TOTT and in hindsight not quite sure why we didn't deploy it. In any case, the cache was soon in hand - or so we thought - more like finger tips only. Somehow, the container just disappeared. A wet and lengthy search did not help so we did some shopping and returned. We thought the longer limbed GOM might do a better job but he discovered some limbs were too long to fit. Another attempt and container was finally replaced. Still not sure why we didn't use the TOTT either time...

FP for the fun

22,132. Found with minniek during a trip into Canberra for the Community Celebration Event.

After the Community Celebration Event, minniek and I started to head home. However, we had passed this one earlier and I noticed the water lever was down. Now we have stopped and looked at this one a number of times, and I had formulated a methodology for getting to the cache which didn't involve burning muscles or ropes and harnesses. So today on our journey home we stopped here again and deployed our plan which worked a treat. Easy find ! Signed the log (perfectly dry at the moment), replaced the cache, and then retreated back to the car and home.

Thanks Loci612 !! Fun fun cache to find (eventually !!). Favourite Point !!

Headed into Canberra with fitzy_1965 for a Community Event this afternoon. Once the event was over, we headed back to this cache, probably for the 10th time (or thereabouts).

fitzy_1965 has had an idea on how to proceed for a while. Today was better time than some of the other times we have been here so his plan was put into place and finally paid off.....thank goodness!

Sometimes I write "the hardest part about this cache...." Not in this case I don't!!! Today the opposite is more applicable. The easy part of this cache was driving to it and walking down to the bridge.
I made the mistake of assuming I knew where it was hidden....so I had the fun of scaling the bridge twice! How fun!
When I got to the other side, with my arms burning, I thought I'd take a better look...ahhhh, there it is. No worries....I'll scale back across and figure out how to sign it when I get there. Hanging off with one hand, and getting honked at because there was a hand poking out to the road (must've looked pretty funny in hindsight) I managed a sign and replace.
Even opening the car door was hard when I got back to it! TFTC!! Really enjoyed this one!

Another cache check whilst passing, the log was damp after recent heavy rain, replaced with something dry but didn't have a baggie which seemed to be missing as well. Hopefully it is ok for now

Cache on!

Found!

Didn't have the skills to get to this cache today. I tried so hard but just couldn't get it. I will be back with TOTT.

Had some time up my sleeve and was in the area, so did a quick cache check.

All is well and good! Thanks for the fun logs
Cache on!

Several muscle groups were burning when I got to GZ, and then I had to somehow reach the cache, and get back to safety. My wrists were chafed and I wished I had worn long sleeves. I was in pain and wondering what would happen if I fell into the creek. I reached the cache and tried to toss it to Miskit. My throw was pathetic because I had not allowed for weakened muscles. I headed back to safety, found the cache where it had fallen in the grass, and tried to sign the log. But I couldn't write properly. My muscles were still not working properly. After a rest, I was able to write better. With some teamwork and a different approach, we returned the cache.
This was an education for me. I thought I would be fine but I was not. An adventure, certainly, and a near miss from what could have been a bad injury or worse.
Thanks for the challenging cache, Loci. I almost didn't meet the challenge.
Image showing chafing attached.

Finally time to get this one. Almost 8 weeks since my knee reconstruction and I'm feeling more confident with the leg. One way to find out!! So I saw the cache, worked my way along, grabbed, signed and climbed up, much to the surprise of a few cars, when my head popped up above road height. Hehe. All good. A fave.

I headed out for a more traditional Friday after work caching session along Majura Rd to try and visit some of the newer or changed caches along here. I wandered over from the parking spot and had a look in some spots before seeing the terrain rating. Then I saw it and headed straight back to the car. I need a teenager.

Thanks.

I meet J&Jau at Fyswick and I told him come with me go there and show where cache hide.. He say oh my good how get caches... We have ropes and etc!!! He say dont need . he walk though bridge... i told him be careful i dont want see him get hurt.... He say got cache... I said oh beautiful... then put back to hide but hard put... Now finally over it... He say never to again...
We are safe and cache safe.. thanks Loci612... Put fav for you .. wink

We caught up with All7 for lunch and team up to grab this cache. MrJ drew the short straw and had all the fun. We brought some ropes just in case, but weren’t needed.
It’s a bit of a drop it things went wrong , besides it’s a little too cold to swim today.
Once we had our names added the cache was placed as found.
TFTC

Eventually spotted it, and no, I'm not going to retrieve it!

#11049 @1400
Out caching with AngelG27 and Bobl27. As we were in the area, and I needed a second cache for the day, this one popped up as a likely candidate. The D/T rating made it a definite one to get (if we could). On arrival at GZ, the cache was soon spotted, but my initial reaction was to leave it alone. After a bit of discussion, I tested out the route, and decided it was doable, so out I carefully went, and even more carefully reached for the cache, which I passed to BobL27 above to sign. By the time that was done, and the cache replaced, my arms were getting quite tired, but there was only two options now. Hang in there and make my way back, or go for a swim. Fortunately the latter wasn't required. Very satisfying to complete, and definitely deserves a favourite. TFTC.

Cache 5024 on 28 Apr 2019.

The weather forecast was so good for Sunday that it would have been a crime not to head out and do some walking to get done caches. Bobl27, TikvaNZ and I met at Campbell Park to walk on the east side of Mount Ainslie and grab a few well deserved caches. A lovely walk, around 90 mins and then another quick but scary cache afterwards. Thanks TikvaNZ and Bobl27 for the excellent company !

This cache: after finishing up at Mount Ainslie, we made our way to this cache - oh dear! That is going to be a bit tricky!! It required teamwork to complete, with TikvaNZ doing the hard yards, Bobl27 assisting with signing and holding, and me spotting. Very tricky indeed and required nerves of steel!

Thanks Loci612 for the cache and the fun!

Found with AngelG27 and TikvaNZ on a lovely Sunday afternoon walk. Good company and good caches! Quick find, but tricky retrieval - team work needed. TFTC

*24 Apr 2019, Found @8:09 am, Find # 2812.*

My last day in Canberra after an awesome eight days of caching and doing mega stuff I had forgotten that this one was on my to do list. Defintely couldn't leave town yet, so SteMicMitSar and myself made a detour here. It took a few minutes to work out where the cache was. There were only so many ways to approach this one and well I just wasn't quite up to the challenge. Steve got down to business making short work of it and in no time at all, we were both signing the log. Definitely a fun and challenging one to do.

**Thanks to Loci612 for placing this cache.**

*24 Apr 2019, Found @ 8:13 am, Find # 9235.*

Day six of the Clear Waters Mega.
There was still a few caches to be found but once that was done I was heading for home.
I headed to this one with jascat as we were both wanting to find this one before we went your separate ways.
At first we didn't see it and we were looking in the wrong spots but then it was spotted and then we started thinking, how are we going to get this one, after a bit of pondering I then decided to see if I could reach it from above and I was just able to, the log was then signed and the cache was replaced.

**Thanks to Loci612 for placing this cache.**

Wow had to tackle this in a way I am used to lucky I was a electrician in a former life love the DT rating thx fav from me

Out with Aussieben and Kingfisher_au for another fun day during the Clear Waters Mega. This was a fun cache to find and certainly required team work, hehehe. Thanks for the fun, Loci612!

Found while out caching with kingfisher_au and Caro, we turned up to the cache not sure on what to expect. But after a bit of spotting and shuffling the cache was retrieved. Thanks for the cache and bringing us here. A favourite point for the cache.

Can see it but prudence tells me I should have a buddy or another trick in the toolbox!

Cache has been retrieved and replaced in a slightly better spot
Thanks for the tools and guidance from FurfacesLL, Tankengine and Aquilus1 who have now signed the log.

Good luck and happy caching!

Well - I knew where it was, and almost got it last time! This time I was back with the CO, Aquilus1 and Furfaces! All I can say is that I'm glad the CO was there! Bit of a scary cache this one! Thanks Loci612.

I had been hearing a little about this cache, so when then opportunity magically appeared at just the right moment I was quite keen to come along to this one. As it ended up it wasn't just that I would always of needed someone to help me to get this, but the adventure of it was so worth seeing!

Must say, seeing loci in action is entertaining in itself, and he makes it look so very easy! But tonight involved a little extra 'retrieval' so that added a lot of difficulty, and adventure to it.

With Tankengine we drove out, by a few caches for me on the way and met up with FurFacesLL and loci. Very pleased to have been here for the cache, a big thank you to loci or there was no way my name was going on the log... perhaps a thank you then to TE for it slipping where it did and the opportunity to be there!

Got a message from the Co asking if we had the required tools needed to retrieve this one after the last finders moved its location.
Had the correct stuff so at darkest hour picked up the Co and met up with TE and Aquilius1 in the allotted parking area.
Then the fun began. Glad we came to help out at this one as I am not sure if we would have bothered attempting it otherwise unless we had a death wish.
Lots of fun had by all.

Interesting cache hide Loci612 but enjoyable all the same.

Ftf more to come

Arrived here to catch up with imcoust - who had just found it! He kindly showed me where it was - and how he retrieved it! So I went to do the same... but alas - it was a tricky grab, and it dropped to the level below! I think I added another star to the terrain? Sorry!

I’m going to attempt to fix this either today or tomorrow. Will need a tool and some patience/steadiness on my part. It will be back VERY soon I hope, so keep posted.
