Cache found muggled and strewn about.We replaced it but you might want to check on it.
Had a good look for this one again today. Looks like a lot of water has gone through recently.
Found 2 x twin truncked trees close to GZ neither yielded a cache one of them delightfully had a bag of dog at its base. Called it quits walked back through the dog park where a dog jumped up at me and got muddy paws all over my clean trousers. Epic fail here TFTH
Found in the dark. Ended up in crp creek, shoes need a wash lol. Had a good think about it and found
On a drive today with a client, collecting caches along the way. This one was found by looking for the hint, the coordinates are way out. And watch out for the blackberries, I got badly scratched up

As my dog hasn’t joined me on this adventure I had to wander through here dogless. I wonder what people would think
A handy gate gave me access to where I was going and I soon had the log book signed.

Cache and co-ordinate check.
All good. Cache was actually laying in the open in plain view less than a metre from GZ. Rehidden in obvious hide location.

Checked all the twin trunk trees
Both sides of the little river
No sign, but signs of recent flooding
Maybe worth checking this one

GPS was bouncing around a bit but after approaching from both sides came up empty handed. The evidence points to a possible flood or tree down.

Had a good look around for this one but seeing there was a flood here at GZ recently it may have floated away, maybe. Hoping it's just me
TFT Challenge anyways.

Been going here for a while with the doggos, didn't realise there was a cache here till now.
What a beautiful little spot, even if I was here on dusk. The sound of the trickling stream was lovely. We left a crocodile.
Nice spot and a pretty quick easy find. The GPS does try to put you on the other side of the water. If you’re on the side of the dog park, you’re on the right side. TFTC!
Clue and other comments about GPS being a bit off helped.
Is about 10m out according to my phone

Tried the river crossing option initially was not the correct path but got there in the end
Today we decided to head from Snug - Cygnet and surrounds to find a few more caches that we have not found and to make them a smilie. A great day out, not too cold, sun out allowed us to enjoy the great outdoors.
After reading the hint we made a quick find. Cache and contents were in good condition.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Day 3 of our Tassie trip and HerIndoorsOutdoors and I are driving from Kettering to Dover, with a side trip to Cockle Creek at the end of the day (if all goes according to plan). No plot to find specific caches, just checking the app every time we stop and, if there's something close enough we have a look. Works OK in most places and occasionally it takes us on an interesting detour we wouldn't have otherwise taken.
We outsmarted ourselves a little bit here. Not having read the description properly, we tried to access GZ from the road outside the park. Not a good idea without a pair of thigh waders to cross the creek. After correcting that mistake it didn't take long to follow the correct route to GZ and retrieve the cache. .
The cache is in good condition.

With the recent rains brought a nice trickle to the creek.
Made an excellent spot to start my solo day of cacheing.
Thanks for the hide.

Dropped by here a week or more ago and there were muggles with their owners so we gave it a miss.
Yesterday after explaining to some muggle mates the joys of geocaching, a plan was hatched to find a couple and this was the first we came across.
Nobody was inside when we arrived so we had some time to wander in for a squiz.
Of course some dog mugglers came in not long later, which made walking out amusing.
Thanks for the cache!!

Thanks for the cache S_38 & Lekker_Ding. RLD4963 and the GeoGSP were out for an afternoon of geocaching, and we ended up taking the long way home.
Last time we dropped by to this dog park, the cache was missing, so today we returned hoping to turn that frowny face into a smiley - luckily it was there today! RLD4963 battled the blackberries and then we could add our names to the log. The GeoGSP enjoyed having a run around for a little while.

out and about with 2 Lil Rafas on a Saturday afternoon caching going to find several we could not find in the first search, with other finders logging this one we were certain it was there and so were the blackberries, a good place to cache and exercise the dog. TFTC TNLN log dry.
After finding access to the area, we were soon on our way to GZ. Reasonably accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find although retrieval was a little hampered by the emerging blackberries - will get more interesting as summer comes. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks S_38 & Lekker_Ding for the cache.
Hello S_38 thank you for the cache
I arrived at the park and there was a muggle playing with her dog so I went for a drive to see if I could get to it from a different direction with out luck.
After a while the muggle and dog left so I went and found your cache.

RLD4963, the GeoGSP and I headed out for a day of geocaching down the channel today. We had a great day, but unfortunately didn't find this one. However, we did take the time to let the GeoGSP have a run around and stretch his legs. Not long after we arrived, some other dogs and their owners arrived. One of the owners was a geocacher who recognised that RLD4963 seemed to be spending some time in a particular corner. She had previously found the cache and assisted in our search but we came up empty handed.
We headed down to Cygnet to do a couple of your caches on the trail from Poverty Point so stopped in to find this cache. Unfortunately we no longer have a dog but have the grand dog sometimes, but not today. A favourite for the container. Luckily no muggle dogs around. A quick find TFTC
I'm writing logs in the same week as I found the caches they are for, thats a first for a long time!
With a match going on we took a few moments watching the game before we nipped off to find the cache.
Thanks for bringing me here.

We called in here after a lap around the Channel. With a cricket game on we looked to see if we could access this from the road. Not with all those blackberry thorns!
We retreated to the easy entrance and realized we were out of view so were not concerned. A quick find here at GZ. We added some extra cover as we left as it was quite bare.
Thanks S_38

A rare day off meant a sleep in and a drive down the channel to collect a few caches.
Lovely little dog park and a nice hide in the corner. Thought for a second it was a left over can of "Pal"

We're in the Huon for a week including the Cygnet Folk Festival once again. Camping and caching weather perfect. Smoke from the mainland catastrophic fires on one day. Filling in time today before the music starts at the newly opened Cygnet Cannery. Seemed to be plenty of geotrail activity around about, but hint gets you to the correct spot without pain. Thanks to the C.O's
