It would appear that Johnathan's little legs have come to life and he has run away. I used a metal detector to try and find him today without luck. See ya buddy. It was a hoot while it lasted. Archiving this cache.

After attending ZeZol at the Grand Voyage III Event in Burnie, we headed to Wynyard to cross that area out of the Book. I enjoyed taking MerilynGent out caching with me for the day. The days total was 20 Traditional, 3 Earth and 1 event for the day. Happy With That.

Easy find. something different .Like it have given a FP. Thanks Man of Steel for placing it.

Not all Geocaches are in "Plain Sight" miriam_reid1701.

Some require a bit of a search.

Found this one this afternoon whilst out taking the geo pup for a walk had an inkling the subject matter cache container was what was found. Log book duly signed and returned to its hiding place. TFTC from the inspectorrexteam.

I checked in on Johnathan today after he received a DNF.

I can confirm that he is still in his hiding spot and waiting to be found.

Well Joel found Jonathan very quickly and as most of the caches he has found with us have been sistema types he was really impressed with this one as well.
Like a cache that has an interesting story to it too.
Thanks and a favourite point from us.

Just arrived back from a trip to King Island and it was a rough flight and the weather is not being kind to us so are aim is to just do the easier caches which do not recur us to walk long distances so we don’t get too wet. Didn’t really come prepared for the wet! Understand the title now....very interesting container. Took ages for us to find, the GPSr was on strike and didn’t want us to find this lovely cache. Persistence paid out!

A very pleasant stroll along the riverbank until we reached GZ. After a very short search we found Johnathan. We had made a guess at what Johnathan would be and he got it right! a lovely spot that we'd visited before but well worth coming back TFTC

After a trip to the Leven Canyon earlier this morning we were heading home when we realised we still had some time before our late afternoon commitment so decided to continue on down the highway to Wynyard and visit Johnathan, maybe we would be his first visitors.

It was a lovely clear day and great for a short walk to Johnathan's new abode. We found him waiting in the sun. He handed over a blank log sheet and invited us to be the first team to sign his visitors log. We signed {FTF} at 12:10.

Thanks The_Man_Of_Steel for moving Johnathan to this spot. An excellent hide with spot on coordinates.
