2 fools set off on this 2sday 22/2/22 to find 22 D2/T2 caches and go to 2 Events, too.
This one had been missing when I logged the others on the trail, so I was glad for a return visit.
Thanks, Pa_i_ge

I had a fair idea where this cache would be when I approached GZ and I was correct. Unfortunately the container is damaged and the log is a bit of a mess. I added a piece of paper with my name on it.
Nice hide. Good series along this path. Lid cracked and contents a bit wet. TFTC.
FOUND IT!!
We got a couple of Pokémon cards and puts some books in!

Back out on the trail today to continue the streak, close to getting the final now. TFTC
Early start to the day, thought I’d stop to find this one, nabbed. Great spot for a hide, TFTC
Left a nemo charm here as I my pen fell out of pocket on travels here, good hide though
Easy find thanks to the hint. Miss geo8 got this one! Though the container was a bit exposed, so we fixed that.
Found it! Walked the Aqueduct trail with Muggle Heather. This was a quick find. Just had to wait for a gap in the traffic!! TFTC SL sorry for the late
We needed rest when we arrived at this cache as there is a reasonably steep hill between this one and the last one we visited. We had also been walking for a fair while. This one was too easy, we could see it from the path, and we signed it, then repositioned it so that it wasn't obvious to any random muggle walking by. We left it so that it would require one to be looking for it rather than just being able to stumble over it. We decided that Mr Dromaniax would continue whilst Mrs Dromaniax would rest here with the geodogs, they only have short legs and take around 4 steps for every human step. This location was nicely shaded, and there were several places to sit comfortably. Thank you for this cache Pa_i_ge.

Another day out caching with Omegaman1971, today we headed to the Eltham area to clean up a few unfound caches, a great day was had and after the rain we had the day before it was great to see the sun come out.
This is one of the caches we found on out travels.
Thanks Pa_i_ge for the cache.

I found the cache easily today, but when I was here a couple of months ago the cupboard was bare. Very strange. Tftc
Good job I found this one. It was lying out exposed to the elements. It’s a bit more snug now. TFTC
One of our easiest finds - I personally think it should have been more like 1.0 difficulty. Covered it up a bit more because it was to obvious and might attract muggles
Another one found by Ewan and Grandad whilst walking Jack the dog. No pen to record in the log book.
I almost finished my walk and a young lad who helped me find to a cache earlier helped me find this one (thanks friends!) Many friendly locals on the track and a friendly Golden Labrador called Max with a very large branch in its mouth.
The cache is in good condition.

With our respective caching buddies out of town or otherwise occupied this weekend, spiffy and I decided to team up, drag out the bikes and find a trail or two. I remember riding this trail with jimbo80 finding the first incarnation of this series. With minor relocations and perhaps a bit more experience, we managed to find all hides quite easily this time. All but one clues were gathered, the remaining missing one deduced through trial and error in the checker. A lovely ride on a great trail. Thanks for placing and maintaining this trail of caches, Pa_i_ge

Well I didn't go away anywhere for the long weekend and neither did OzHockeyChick. So today we went on a bike ride along a couple of trails and this was one of them.
Started off and in the 1st 2 caches .... no clues .... oh no ... they soon started though but we ended up missing one of them (maybe #2 since it looked like a replacement log) but with only a few hits on the checker we soon got GZ without the last clue.
It was a busy little trail along here today with the beautiful weather but it was handy having the bikes and a companion so we looked a lot less suspicious.
Didn't have any problems with any of the finds today apart from waiting for muggles.
Thanks Pa_i_ge for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

Another find on a sunny afternoon. I took one trackable, and replaced it with another.
A nice and quick find on a hot afternoon.... welcome to Autumn... this is hotter than any day in February this year. Though must admit this year February was reasonably cold and everything is so green currently.

My Mum was visiting from Ireland and I had taken the day off work to spend it with her. I had a challenge cache I was keen to pick up near here so I talked up the walk along the Maroondah Aqueduct Trail and a few caches as a nice morning outing. The weather didn't quite cooperate but we pushed on regardless and it wasn't raining at this point. After three finds to the east of Parsons Rd we headed back to this one before continuing west. No problems at this one and the cache was soon found in a likely spot. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache and the series Pa_i_ge.
I decided to take some extra days off work to extend that holiday feeling and have been reacquainting myself with my bike. Today I decided to grab the newish series down the Aqueduct Trail.
A quick find. TNLN. TFTC.
