Finally found one of yours, maybe making them premium will avoid them being stolen?

Great find

Coordinates changed from:S 41 22.587 E 147 7.798Coordinates changed to:S 41 22.588 E 147 7.816Distance from original: 82.3 feet or 25.1 meters.As the cache has been interfered with and logs removed on several occasions I have relocated it to a different location.

Cache has be replaced and relocated. Hint and coordinates have been updated.

After the recent DNF I checked and the cache has gone missing. Will arrange a replacement within the next few days.

Looked around and investigated all holes we could physically see at night but no luck unfortunately

Good hiding spot

Don't look on the tree when it says the lonely loo.

Hhmm ! spent a little bit of time roving around here to no avail. And in this instance the hint didn't give us any extra help either. So we moved on. Thanks anyway icybeetas. We'll put a watch on it ready for our next visit in the area.

Found (I think) but there was no log and unfortunately I didn't come prepared today as I was in a different car.

Found it! Pretty sneaky!

So this is a bit confusing, we actually found one with a log book which hadn't been signed since 2021, and also found another one which I think is the 'real' one but it didn't have a log book.

Please tell why I can’t find

Well that’s a bit weird! As with the previous finder, I found the cache but again with no log in it. I have now placed a new log inside. Thank you.

I found the cache but it was missing the log book so I put a new sheet in the hidey hole.

Keep smiling

GCA1DNA - SA’s Leap Year Event - 29th February 2024 -
This only happens every 4 years -
Don’t miss out, it’s going to be MEGA -

Dnf today.

Back home we decided to tackle a few caches that have been published and this was one of them.

A sneaky hide, cache and contents were in good condition.

Thanks icybeetas for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Great Cache

Logbook replaced

Found this cache after going to Apple Isle Moot on my post tour.

I’ll be in Tassie till the 29th of January

I’ve may have added one of my moot pathtags for the next person to find (physical locations that will fit a pathtag only)

Happy finding


Thanks icybeetas for the cache

#12736 - 12:25:00 PM; Jumped through all of the hoops and made it to Tasmania for a couple of weeks of R&R with family, but sadly the holiday has come to an end and we are now headed back towards Devonport to catch the ferry back across the Strait to the big island to the north. The CO advised that the cache was indeed missing after my recent DNF, so stopped off today on the way past to turn the blue face into a smiley! TFTC icybeetas

Tftc

The cache has indeed gone AWOL but has now been replaced.

Stopped for this one as we headed back to base from Launceston. Had a good look around, but looks like there may have been a recent tidy up in the area and the cache may have gone as a result! Thanks anyway icybeetas

During this hectic time of year I needed a bit of me time with trusty geo-molly dog. Found this nice and easily and cache and contents are in good order.
I can only get one more cache today as Hay fever has set in.

Found it!

TFTC This is my 22nd in two days with the help of GoldJ!! Awesome

Gotcha TFTC

Took a slight detour to Rocherlea to retrieve a moveable published 6 years ago for a GCA task and found a couple of nearby caches before heading home via Cressy. The mountain has been climbed for this month. I removed the mushy log and added note paper and a plastic bag. TFTC

Mind the gap!

Thanks for the cache icybeetas.
RLD4963, the GeoGSP and I decided to take advantage of the Hobart Show Day public holiday and headed north for a couple of days.
We made an attempt to search for this cache a couple of days ago - as we headed north, and when the weather was much better! - but we were thwarted by a muggle sitting on a nearby koppers log. He wasn't deterred when we parked nearby and remained in situ. So we decided to have a look on our return trip - which was today - when it was pouring with rain Even the GeoGSP was keen to stay in the car, as RLD4963 and I grabbed our coats hoping for a quick find - well it was sort of quick, maybe two or three minutes - but then when we looked from the right angle, there it was. We quickly signed the log and returned it to it's hidey hole.
That was the end of our caching for the weekend - the rain did not let up all the way home.
good old Tassie spring weather!

out and about to get smileys for the GC game "reach the Peak". and this was on the list. a cool and light rainy day that stayed all week and until Sunday in both the north and the south. TFTC TNLN log dry. the second attempt with this one and there was no one sitting on the treated pine fence this time but it was raining.

Final one of the day with rhi and Cruz

Had a look for this one back in April but it was MIA. After receiving notice from the CO's that it had been replaced Mrs Beetle and grandson were passing Tuesday on their way to Derby to do some bike riding and stopped for another look. The cache was quickly located but the log sheet was sodden and we were unable to write on it. There was a drier piece of paper in the bottom of the container and we did manage to sign that.
Good to finally cross this one off the unfound list. Thanks icybeetas.

Sorted through the spooky spiders and assorted trash to find the glorious cache!

TFTC

Tftc

It was covered in spiderwebs ;-;

Wet log and covered in spiderwebs but we found it without too much difficulty

Found with ProjectLichen, Pookisportal and UmRyancool TFTC

Up North for the weekend collecting caches along the way. A bit cooler and rainy compared to the glorious weather yesterday.

It is currently raining very heavily but we are determined to soldier on and collect more caches. After a previous dnf blue frown we are very happy to convert this to a yellow smiley. We think we were deterred last time by the maintenance works even though it turns out they did not impact the cache. This time we went straight to it. The log book is seriously wet and slimy so we had a spare blank page which we logged and left behind . CO might want to place new log at some stage. TFTC

Quick find, log is super wet so took a photo in case:)

Tftc

Now that the road workers have finished their work I have been able to determine that this cache is still in its original hide and is ready to be found.

With recent footpath works this cache is no longer in situ as the GZ has been destroyed. I will replace when a new hiding place is located.

Today we are geocaching in the North, covering the general triangle between Scottsdale, Lilydale and Launceston and collecting as many caches along the way as practical.

This was going to be our last one today but alas we searched but to no avail.

Quite a lot of activity happening here at the moment with roadworks. We were still able to access the area at GZ but unfortunately we couldn't find your cache. Maybe next time. Thanks.

You could say weird and you could say a CITO here would not go astray! Returning from exploring Hollybank which was quite pleasant! TFTC

Hello icybeetas thank you for the cache

No problems finding this one during a weekend away with EeePees.
The last one for the day.

Sorry for the late log, trying to cache up a bit.

Found on Saturday, 13 March 2021 at 1635

**TFTC**

Quick park and grab. Break in the rain clouds called for some exploring and stretching the legs. Thanks

Hi icybeetas, thanks for the cache.

An excellent weekend's caching away with AlbyDangles, and at the risk of offending others, it doesn't get much better than that; although sometimes enhanced by others.
The primary goal being to conquer Mount Barrow, but the weather beat us again today, that's twice now that we've been blown off that mountain!

So after chasing a few other caches out that way and then back thru Prossers Road (I recall it was Prossers Forest Road once?) we're back in Rocherlea - where I went to primary school, and caught the bus from this stop to get home. Where's the damned school! Sad when childhood memories disappear from the landscape; but that's progress I guess - although I can't see any progress here.

Thanks for bringing me back here; so many memories.

Cheers, EPs.

Yukky area. Gave up quickly. Don’t need this one.

Didn't find.

Logged it. Nice natural seat to log.

2-1 up on the old man today, TFTC!

Hi icybeetas...I looked in wrong spot initially but soon found the well hidden cache.
Many tftc...much appreciated...cheers ST.

On the way from home to Hobart today I made the quick detour into this cache, I searched in the obvious place but didn’t find it so looked a bit further away and found the cache nicely tucked away. The cache and contents are all in good order
TFTC

Well I would never have thought there was a dunny in there.
The cache was very well hidden but I got it eventually.
TFTC

First for over 2 months - took a little while to get our geoeyes back on.
Thanks for the fun

With GeoMaggie2. Found, stamped and replaced, with Maggie and Mollie, my GeoWesties, while roaming around Tasmania with our motorhome “Mylittlebus” looking for content for our TASMANIA ALL OVER facebook. Join us there. Thanks for placing this cache (and others), keeping us on our exploring toes.

Thank you for the cache from GeoMaggie and her sidekick Bonnie. And Angus 88

I must admit that I have driven past this lonely loo many times, but have never noticed it before, a very interesting piece of infrastructure. TFTC icybeetas.

Today we were heading to Swansea for a community event tomorrow. However we left early so that we had time to detour into Launceston to look for some recently published caches. Despite accurate coordinates and the hint, it took a few minutes of hunting and looking from the right angle before the cache was located. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks icybeetas for this cache.

Even though the road was fairly busy no one was interested in me. A quick find TFTC

Good thing I didn’t have to go as there was a decent padlock on the door. Mind you if I were that desperate likely wound have painted the rear wall.. thanks..!!

A trip to Launceston and Devonport on Thursday and Friday with a a night in Launceston. Thursday was work and Friday was a day off, so I took advantage of the new caches in Devonport and Railton for a run on my way to my target of 500 finds for the year. After a very successful day, I came home with 58 cache finds and 2 and nature lab stages.... so 60 which was a good day considering I was home by 7pm. Thursday weather wasn’t very good, so little was down after work, but Friday was a perfect day for caching. Not to hot not raining.
Really enjoyed a walk along the Tasmanian trail. And all was good until on the back roads to Railton, where one stop I was surprised by a tiger snake, which luckily didn’t seem interest3d in me. To be honest it was about 10 metres away, but going Parallel to my walking path.... I don’t like snakes.

Anyway. Managed to finish The Tasmanian trail whole series which deserves the huge favourite point.

Couldn’t work out where the cache waS until I looked from another direction

Found it
#TFTC.

I wonder why its no longer a usable toilet? Definitely something the drives need more of not that i’d use it haha looks creepy here all on its own. Tftc

Hi icybeetas, thank you for this little hide at the Lonely Loo. Heading back to Hobart and had to pop into Mowbray so decided I would call by here for a cache. Mmm...don't put your fingers up the pipe it is soft and webby. Took me a little while to sus out the hiding spot, I liked it plus although plenty of cars it didn't feel mugglish at all.
Thanks for your contribution to my hide and seek pleasure.

Was rather lonely this evening, not much traffic around.
I drive part here several times a week and don’t remember seeing this loo before, I suppose it does blend in with the trees.
TFTC
cheers

No need to rush all you FTF warriors, Ive got it. The road work crew where here mowing and snipping so the difficulty rating was up a bit. TFTC
