A nice easy fun cache

Nice little cache that was found without too much difficulty. Log was a bit wet but still signable. TFTC!

Good first find!

Thanks for my first find!

Great hide. Love this MTB park.

This is very cool

A long awaited weekend trip to Geelong saw us targeting some of our long list of solved puzzles, amongst other caches as well. This morning, however, Parkrun was first up on the agenda, and this cache was found along the way while walking to the start of the nearby Balyang run. A nice quick find. TFTC widejo.

Thought I wasnt going to find it , but whola Ive got it

There's another small tree that had a loop so we were confused for a bit haha

Cute! Thankyou

On my way to an appointment i had enough time to stop and grab this cache. Log is a bit soggy but dried it off and signed and replaced. Tftc

Such a good surprise when we found it, very small and petite, but so funny

Found it! Although the paper was really wet.

Quick find whilst in G town today - thank you!

Thank you so much

Thank you

Thanks for my first find!

It was so fun and amazing hiding spot thank you so much

As we had parked close to here, we decided to grab this after doing some nearby multis.Log quite wet, dried it the best we could.TFTC

Thanks for the cache

Found after a short searchTFTH

A very cool tree

Nice cache there. Good to see you made your own. Bit of moisture in there but not enough to stop me signing your new log!Thank!

Cache has been replaced.

No luck here, I saw a couple of trees that I would call unique but no cache was found

Looks like it's been muggled. Will be replaced soon.

A quick one, fun

Having rode down this hill so many times on my bike, it was nice to do it again, and find a cache near the bottom. I stopped my bike and pulled over at GZ and after a quick look I found the blue friend hanging around. I quickly signed, even though it smelt really bad, and went onto the multis in Balyang.

Pika 14/9/23

Down in Geelong once again visiting my daughter and family for our granddaughters first birthday. After dropping my son who is also visiting from Canberra to parkrun and doing a little shopping, had just enough time to grab this little fella that I recall I reported missing some time ago. No such problem today!

TFTC

This cache took longer than I thought

TFTC

TFTC! Found during a few laps of the park

Quick find.TFTC

I was distracted for a while by a tree further down the path with a particularly loopy lower branch, however once I went back to the coordinates on my phone and found the right GZ, the cache itself was an easy find. Thanks for the cache, widejo.

Gg joint

Nice find on a good day with my friend moxieismax. TFTC

Tackling the Balyang area this holidays. One quick win at a time! Fortunately, this one proved to actually deliver on the quick win.

Cache in extremely good condition, well set up and well protected from the elements.

Pretty nifty!

A beautiful day to enjoy the sunshine and caches to be found.
Thanks for the cache widejo

Once we read the description it was really quite easy. I like the camo.tftc

Teent tiny. Look up!

Nice easy pickup on a bike ride Tftc

Very well hidden but easy to find

Quick find. Good location for it

A nice spot a nice hide had fun looking for it found relatively quickly once I figured out which tree to be looking at

TFTC SLTNLN

This one could have been a lot harder than it was, but a logical hide and pretty much staring you in the face when you were in the right spot helped a lot.

Finally found the loop.

By the looks of the bike not far from gz maybe they didnt lol

i did do a loop the loop to find this one. Once I found where to park all fell into place.
Thanks for the fun widejo

Found on our way past today while touring around the area. Once at GZ, didn’t take too long to spot the hide. Signed log and left as found, all good here. Cheers.

Find #5287 on 5 Feb 2023.
TFTC widejo!

We made an unexpected trip to Geelong today as Mrs Dromaniax had injured her finger earlier in the week, and it had become infected. So we trundled into a Medical clinic to get her a suite of drugs to fix up the finger.

Once we had completed the medical part of our journey, we took the more scenic route home and stopped by to find this cache.

We always enjoy descriptions like head high, as it all depends on the height of the hider. We did, though enjoy the differences that Mother Nature can create.

We found the cache in ex cellent condition.

Thank you for this Traditional cache widejo.

Quick and easy tftc

Nice find with the kids.

Found the tree with ease as per the description. Great little cache.

What a cool spot! TFTC

Nice, seen a few like this before.

Not what we were expecting but we did spot it soon enough.
Then just looked around and spied it.
Cache was what we expected though.
TFTC

We really enjoyed searching for this cache in one of our favourite places to ride TFTC

Ride to the bike park and walked through some trees and found it well from there

Out and about working my way into town via various caches and ad labs. Strolled up here before kicking off a multi not too far away. Initially I settled on the wrong tree (with my eyes as instructed), a quick search didn’t quite feel right so I made my way back to the path, reassessed and soon saw the error of my ways. Not sure how I didn’t hit my head on the cache on my first venture into the trees!

Always nice to get a new fresh log to sign. Tftc.

Cache has been placed higher in the tree, which will hopefully deter the repeated muggling of this cache.

Looks like it's been muggled yet again. I'll aim to have it back in place this weekend.

tftc!! you will know it when you see it!!

Easy find!

Out and about for an hour or so, I dropped by here for a nice quick find at 11:05. Quite a few were making use of the facilities on either side of the parking bay today.

TNLNSL, although our BYO pen geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks widejo.

Been muggled twice in 12 months! I'm out of bison tubes so cache is now a thematically camouflaged Eclipse tin. Hopefully it gets a longer life than the others!

Cache has gone AWOL again. Will be replaced within the next week or so.

Found it while staying at Torquay

Look near your ankles

Nice one

Found with the family.
A nice spot for a geocache.
Thanks for placing it for us to find.

Found with McAdies and Jelly_bean14.
This was a fun spot for a geocache.
Thanks for hiding it for us to find.

Quick find.
Looks like a fun trail.
Thanks for the hide

Cache had gone missing; thanks to wespro and Eviloffspring for letting me know.
Has now been replaced exactly as it was previously.

*The "Got My Butt On A Bike 'Cos I Couldn't Stand Being In My House Any Longer" Adventure #7*
I'm out for an afternoon of exercise and caches. Most of my visits today are looking for the info required to kick off a puzzle or multi.
Sadly, this cache wasn't where it should have been. The spot I found was... appropriate, just vacant. As the big Austrian says, "I'll be back!"
Scoreboard: 2 finds, 1 DNFs, 4 non-find visits.
Thanks heaps, widejo!

A nice easy find for our 300th! TFTC

Able to park not too far away and a short stroll had me at an unusually shaped tree. Quick find, log signed. All good TFTC widejo

Good to see lots tres have grown since they were planted.
Thanks for place the cache here.

A nice cache indeed with a story and a unique looking tree to boot.
Good coordinates did the trick and bending down the bison was discovered and unscrewed.
Thanks widejo

**Found after attending Bushfire's Geelong Event**

Chasing a few caches with The Empire after attending the **DO YOU HAVE ONE OF THESE!** events
A fantastic day to be out in the fresh air and sunshine. It was great to be back in the area again and able to swing past and make the find?
A nice straight forward find here. Left my mark on the log and replaced as found.
Thanks for the cache widejo. Appreciate your efforts.

Cache on!

Found by The Empire with Snap Happy
After hanging out with everyone at the event, including the man himself, Bushfire, we spent the rest of the afternoon caching around this part of G-Town. A quick find here once we worked out where to park. Thanks for the cache widejo.

On a day's outing from Bellbrae to Geelong, LittleBoss2 and I had a great day doing AL caches, EC's and trads, puzzles and multis. This was a unique little tree, thanks for bringing us here widejo

We were keen to get out this weekend to climb the mountain and reach the peak of Mt Everest with tomorrow forecast to be hot today was the best day to go. Geelong had a few unfound caches that have been building over the last little while and today it was time to turn them into smileys.
A quick look here today feeling a little uncomfortable with quite a few kids on the track.
Thank you widejo for the hide

I had made a late start to the day, but keen to get out and energise with my faithful companion.
SimsFamily and Neville devil had also started earlier that morning. So we joined up and continued to look for local puzzle and Multi caches around Geelong which was a hive of activity at many locations. Plus a detour to Aireys inlet for a lab cache.
With good coords to cache was soon located which could of been tricky considering the location.
Log signed and replaced as found.

Thanks for the Traditional Cache Widejo

Suscoe's last stop on a brief afternoon's caching.
We have watched this area for many, many years from back in the old tip days. We must say that this mountain bike park is an excellent recreational use of this site.
We even remember when wisps of smoke could be seen emerging from the soil that was used to cover the old tip back in the 70s.
Thanks to widejo for this placement.
All good here today.

Walked past this cache a few too many times before finding it, was going about looking for it in the completely wrong way . Just bought geocaching premium today, so thanks to Widejo for the first premium cache!!

Nice easy one, thanks

Nice Find

Heading homeward after the Panorama Heights CITO we called at the track, unfortunately the trusty treadlies were at home. We found the cache quickly and added our name to the log.

Thanks widejo for placing caches in interesting locations for everyone's enjoyment.

Thanks for the cache, strange how it took someone 6 years to place a cache here

buhfuhguh and SteMicMitSar very kindly offered to take me around Geelong today with a Community Celebration Event in Ceres being the outing's main attraction.
Despite the event starting at 6pm, I had to wake up at 6am in order for us to fit in all of the adventures that this region had to provide!
An excellent time was had at each and every stop, and meeting other cachers throughout the day as people slowly trickled into the area was a really fun experience too.

Under the cover of darkness, I wandered right up to gz where this unique tree was spotted from a short distance away.
The coordinates were spot on and the cache was found in the first spot I looked, luckily the adventure wrapped up before I was driven loopy!

Thanks to widejo for placing this hide here!

*Found on the 4 Dec 2021 @ 9:29 pm.*
*Cache find # 12120.*

Today I headed out and around to the Geelong region once again with Brainiac03 and buhfuhguh to spend the day in search of caches before heading to Mr. Sim’s 50th birthday celebration event.

Well the event was now finished but before we headed for home we decided that there was still a bit of caching time left in the day so as we headed in the general direction we need to go and found a few more along the way, this being one of them.

**Thanks to widejo for placing this cache.**
