Logs
Judging by the clues and photos with some posts I would say this one has been muggles.
TFTC! Canister empty and no log as previously mentioned. Please see photo attached
Found the cache but no log, so I have ripped up a piece of paper to put in there. Sorry it doesn't look better, but it does the job. Many thanks for the cache!
Came to check the log, found the cache scattered on the ground with log missing. Have replaced.

Surprised this is still hidden given the number of kids that are around here on school days!
Nice hide thank you.
Nice hide thank you.
This was an odd one with us having to wait out a couple of muggles, but we got there in the end, thanks for the cache.

Catching up on my logs. There were a couple odd looking blokes loitering near here so needed to play it cool. Maybe they thought they were being cool too??
Once the coast was clear the wrong place was checked first but the cache was found in the second place checked.
Thanks charchar1987

Accurate coordinates made this cache a quick find , all's good at gz Thanks charchar1987
Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find of a well hidden. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks charchar1987 for the cache.
My friend introducing me to the sport! I’m hooked! Can’t wait to find some more treasure with the kids!
Thanks for the cache charchar1987.
Today I was out and about with the GeoGSP, and we headed to the nearby dog park so that the GeoGSP could have a run around and play with some other doggoes. After lots of laps and chasing balls and running around, we headed back to the car and grabbed this cache on the way. A nice easy find.

Thanks for the cache. A quick find although I nearly got sprung by a dog walker who drove in behind me to park.
Nice that this area now has a cache and all is good at GZ.
Thanks charchar1987, for the adventure,
Cheers, EPs.

Hello charchar1987 thank you for the cache

out and about by myself caching to gain height for the GC game Reach the Peak, and this took a little time, this find stumped me until I found the right one. TFTC TNLN log dry. lots of muggles walking to the dog park to exercise their pooch,
Went straight to the hint as there were a couple of guys practising their jumping and I didn't wanna loiter all weird like!! Tftc my15th for my day and last one too. Good adventure!!
Parked in a very convenient place and i was over to GZ to make the find and sign at 12:50 on Wednesday 7 July 2021.
I thought how cool it would be, if at my age, i could do the ol' "Hop, Skip and a Jump" but i'm afraid i'd very likely injure myself [B)] so i left it to my imagination
The cache and contents are good and dry

The difficulty with trust one was the number of kids in the area. Eventually got a time when they had all wandered off, and got it.

Finally stopped raining so a quick geocache was a great way to get the kids out of the house. Thanks
Quick find along this track. On holidays from the mainland and enjoying it TFTC.
Sadly, someone had decided that they needed the container the log was stored in, leaving it exposed to the elements. Thank you to Tassie Trekkers for placing in a ziplock until I could perform maintenance. Container has now been replaced
Today we decided to trek into Hobart and surrounds and find a few more caches that we have not found and to make them a smilie. A very cold, windy and a tad wet but braved the coooooooold weather and rugged up for the occacion.
Today there were many playing muggles, mum and dad muggles as well as a fair in the area, but we decided to have a look and we found the log sheet on the ground as we walked up to GZ. We have put the log sheet into a small zip lock bag and rehid as per hint.
Thanks for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

In the area and luckily a quck find as the muggles were all leaving as junior sport had concluded. Found the log nice and dry in the replacement bag that previous finder had added. TFTC
Well done for your first cache, ideal location. The biggest concern was looking out for all the muggle dog owners, they were certainly everywhere. The location allowed for a little bit of covert finding and signing of log . TFTC
Hi charchar1987, lovely scenic spot for a cache in an area I am very familiar with having grown up in Pottery Road and attended Lenah Valley Primary across the road. The toilet facilities back then were very ordinary and no change rooms of course. The area has really been nicely landscaped. Nice area to hide a camo cache, enjoyed looking in the hall again where our assembly's were held. All is good at GZ and your first favourite point for the memories.
Was leaving this cache to do when I had a calender day in June, but was in the park and couldnt resist - resistance is futile - Quick find

Lady membsec was off to lunch with her friend, in the city, so after dropping her off male membsec decided to clean up a few of the local caches. This was the first.
Knew the park so managed to park the car close and avoiding the athletic feature quickly located the cache. TFTC

We found it.
Sorry we didn't write our name in the log book. We didn't have a pen. Any way good find

My sister looked just saw a ROCK and left it then my other sister saw it cause it was to suspicious. Great hiding spot by the way. Have you got any other caches? This was one of the coolest one yet. I loved it.
Big congratulation on your first hide cache, "clap clap" hooray!!!
Looking forward to your cache soon this week, if i can time..

Got the email to say there was a new cache. Quite close to where I was so I rushed out to grab it as I’ve never been FTF. Spotted it straight away on arrival and happy to see an empty log. TFTC
