I didn't have to use the new coordinates. The feature was sufficient. Thanks maurifree.

Found the cache nice and safe, GZ might need to be updated as flooding has resulted in the cache being relocated by Heide Museum staff

HelloHeide Museum have moved the location of the caravan sculpture so location is now approx 110m out you might want to update the coordinates? My Apple iPhone coords and photo of location of sculpture for info . 37*4525S 145*459E

Thanks, great spot to visit

Searched in all the wrong spots thanks to wayward GPS in the cloudy, rainy conditions.Tracked it down once I read through a few older logs. TFTC

Thanks. So many things to look at.

First time in the park, walking and exploring various sculptures.

I didn't go away for the long weekend anywhere and stayed home and stayed fairly lazy but the weather was so good today I had to head out and look for some caches.Pretty popular park on the weekend but I still got a park right where I wanted too. Passed a few picnicers on the way to GZ and luckily no one was there when I arrived for a nice quick find.Thanks maurifree for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

Found it yesterday with cacher JimmyTheGOAT. It was hard, a magnetic one!Good luck caching!

Nice

I quite liked this art work the gloves went on for some serious searching business, but my eyes were on point. It was such a cool, quirky place to explore.

Try harder at hiding it too easy

Just happened to place my hand in the right spot. An interesting walk around this beautiful place this afternoon!

Easy to see how this lovely riverside parkland would have inspired so many artists. It has a great variety of tree species that provide a crunchy cushiony feel underfoot. Love the connection between the artform and the cache. Happy campers we are! TFTC maurifree

Found the main attraction fairly quickly, but took some time shoving my head in weird spots at weirder angles trying to locate it.

Eventually found it and signed it. A fun cache with plenty of logs left

In town to watch some World Cup soccer - took a while to find this one with the niece and nephew but got there in the end!

The coordinates were off but found it quickly after realising it wasn’t in the river! Nice little find on a beautiful clear morning!

Having come over to Heidelberg to find a *just solved puzzle*, I took the time to wander around Banksia Park to find a couple of caches I was yet to find. Others have reported that the indicated GZ is a bit out... I'm not sure if it was the cloud cover but for me it was way out with GZ was just about in the river.

There was only one obvious place to look... and despite an error of 15 or more metres, I hunted around until I came up with the cache. Fortunately there were no muggles around because it took a while.

Thanks **maurifree** for putting a cache here.

With the sun low in the sky I took the geobrats out for a few quick caches. People have always spoken about going to the Heide, but I wasn't particularly fussed. After today's experience i suddenly see what everyone was going on about. It's great! We finished the Ad Lab at the waypoint close to this particular structure and started the hunt. The geochildren were convinced it wasn't there (and they had a better viewpoint than me) and just as I was about to start interrogating some of the other features in the area I spotted it. Initially they were excited and then groaned that it wasn't bigger (they are after the swaps after all). Geoson as always is hopeful that there'll be something in there even if it is tiny... he'll learn. TFTC

Great spot great little hide. Discretion was needed due to high muggle traffic. TFTC.

A bit off gps! Good easy one. Thanks.

Don’t have my eye in today! Will be back

May the 4th be with you! Completed the adlab here and then discovered a cache here too! Lovely to venture back here after the longest time. Log is lovely and dry!

Thank you for the fun find.

Easy find. Good clue. Cute! David

Gg

Second attempt at this one needed tweezers! GPS was a bit off - such a nice day and great find thanks

Took me longer then expected don’t over think it. Log nice and dry !

It was soo fun kinda easily

Looking at the mud and debris in the van and nearby trees, it seems the river floods quite high here.
It's a bit soft underfoot today, but the cache is in great condition.

A quick find in a great location, great little van.

Our main reason for visiting Heidi was to take our geodog Buddy (HQJYHJ) to the dog park near here for some exercise and socialisation. We had not been to this dog park for several years as we had been going to a different dog park.
With that in mind, we were quite disappointed on arrival to find the dog park closed due to flood damage.
Oh well, at least we have an unfound cache in the area. So instead of a play at the dog park, Buddy got to come for a walk with us to find this cache
A great cache location (somewhat familiar!) and an enjoyable place to be. Cache and log are both in excellent condition.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache maurifree. Looking forward to more caches appearing at Heidi to give us an excuse to return again

Photo is of a spider near GZ.

Took a while to find but nice hiding spot

A good start getting back into the swing of caching, thank you!

My second for the day near Heide. It was obvious that this area was under water during the recent floods, so anything loose on the ground would have been washed away. Although the GPS was indicating a few metres away, there was an obvious place which would not be washed away by the flooding river. Sure enough - there it was! It was great to discover a new, dry log inside, protected from water in a plastic bag. I spoke with a couple of muggles, and explained what I was doing there. Maybe they will get interested to try it themselves. Anyway, congratulations to the CO for excellent cache maintenance.

First Geocahe of the year, an unfortunate start might come back another time and look again

TwoEms began the new year looking for the perfect camping spot. We found laughing kookaburras, darting dragonflies, biting mosquitoes, noisy cicadas, scary spiders, quiet magpies, cooing pigeons, pretty butterflies, delicate moths, marching bull ants, giant orange wasps and a huntsman staring right back at us; however, the best thing we found all day was the cache. The log was a little damp, but we thought the hide, very clever and cute—Thank you, and a happy new year.

Took us a while. The GPS was off by a bit but we eventually got there. Beautiful surroundings for a stunning walk. Paper was waterlogged so we were unable to sign.
Great cache! If it wasn’t so muddy, it would be a beautiful placed to get hitched

Was very wet. Couldn’t sign log.

A good find from Rick, very muddy still here, and log still soggy

GPS is absolutely shocking. Hint also tells me nothing seeing that the ground is softer than a pillow. I might be back

Might have been washed away as currently covered in flood water!

After searching all around the area I settled on the one and only safe spot and sure enough there it was.
Thanks for the hunt and highlighting such a good 'camping' spot maurifree

We were brought down here by the AL and enjoyed camping out for a bit while we searched for this cache. Thanks for hiding it here!

Nice spot, thanks. Quite a lot of mud around!

Nice location, easy find

Found it
The coordinates are off by about 8 meters

Coordinates significantly off -- read the previous logs.

Our initial search came up with a brilliant hiding place but it was not it. After expanding the area we came up with it.

Out on my own today after the gym. Love this park so much to offer. I could do with a bit of camping time and maybe this a bit. Nice easy find Cache in excellent condition

love this one!

Nice and quick find, very cute

Out and about early today to go and collect some caches with Stemicmitsar before heading to an event and CITO up north, helping me get one step closer to qualifying for another challenge, as well as cleaning up some local parks again.

Rocking up to this park we were drawn in to getting a random lab cache and lab cache final out of the ways as what has become pretty par for the course at this stage. Being very cold were were very keen to wrap up the park and get back in the car. But eitherway thanks for the cache and the little adventure.

*Found on the 2 Jul 2022 @ 7:46 am.*
*Cache find # 13038.*

I headed out this morning with buhfuhguh.
We headed North to attend an event and CITO but along the way we stopped off at other cache to see what we could find.
It was a very chilly start to the day but we decided to stop here to do an Adventure Lab and its bonus but as one of the stages was at the same spot as this cache, how could we not find this one as well.
We had a bit of a look all around this object before the cache was eventually found, it was then time to head back to the car to warm up a little before finding the next cache.

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

TOOK US A BIT! But got it!

Found it!! We had enjoyed a fabulous walk along the Yarra and decided to do the Adventure Lab cache through the sculpture park. This one was really close by so we found it too! A quick find using the reverse tool on the phone. TFTC SL. It is a fabulous camping spot here!

Quick find while doing the lab cache
Great spot
TRTC

Took a lot longer then it should have but finally found it poking its tongue out

We found it finally, great hiding spot !

Always wanted to come here so tftc

The gps throws you off a little, and took me a little while to find, but really well hidden, don’t need to reach into scary places!

Cute spot and cute little cache. Thanks so much for placing it.

Got it

We came by here once and the camping spot was underwater. Still lots of mud in there as a result! Tftc

Love this spot…. Should have brought a tent

Nice walk in the park along the river, cute little hiding spot

Nice find! TFTC

No pen but lovely find in the park. Tftc

Love it here.
TFTH

Found this with Amelie, Alana & Izzy! TFTC

cute sculpture. maybe need tweezers

If only there was a double chair we would have stayed to enjoy the tranquility of the river views.

Took us a while first two attempts we were lead to the creek, after looking for some time we realised the gps was a tad off.
Was smaller than what I had expected.
Thanks for the cache.

Great spot!!

Out and about on a perfect caching day, dull and not too hot. I saw that this cache had popped up since the last time I was in the area, so I decided it was time to turn the green into yellow. The coordinates had me closer to the creek, however my caching experience made me think otherwise. The cache was found exactly where I thought it would be. I love this little sculpture.

Looked for a while but no luck. Found a few things out of place and even a bolt that moved but it was not it.

Hot and humid! Ideal camping weather. We never had the “luxury” of a caravan TFTC

Found it

Unless we did something wrong the satalites took us 11 m away close to the river.
However logic prevailed and Mrs Riddell soon had the container in hand.
TFTC… we loved the art, Mr Riddell likened it to mechano while Mrs Riddell reminisced.

I'd had an attempt at a search for this over the last couple of days but was muggled both times. With the nominal closing time close at hand today though, I figured that the area should be reasonably muggle free and sure enough it was.

2upoj decided to lead me on a merry dance and nearly had me in the river but my caching senses (as bad as they can be most times ) kept me coming back to the most logical spot and after a bit of scrounging around, I finally had our first find of 2022 in hand at 18:10.

Now to try and beat the gates.

TNLNSL, although a few of our geocoins had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks maurifree.

I picked out this location over a year ago for my adventure lab, so it is nice now that cachers can get 2 smilies here.
Here is the link to the lab : https://adventurelab.page.link/MeKQ

A long search, as I was looking for something smaller This is the first December 2021 placed cache I have found and on the last day of the month, so a visit from my Jasmer coin, Jasmer complete! (Although tomorrow it won’t be )

Thanks maurifree for Camping spot

Out with au.fait, we had a pleasant walk through Heidi. What a fabulous place, children climbing on logs and playing among the trees. A well hidden cache. Thanks maurifree.

Out on a lovely sunny day with echidna44 for a morning of caching. Time for a couple of caches in Banksia Park. Enjoyed the shady walk to this one as the day was heating up. Wen we arrived a family were already camping n the spot we hoped to book. When they moved on we soon had the cache signed and returned TFTC maurifree

I noticed this cache pop up yesterday afternoon but could not get out here for the first to find. I have been around here before doing the nearby lab cache. It is good to get back here to see the artwork again. TFTC.

I knew the spot from the name - when I was here in September there was less van to explore (and SirJ-Oz saw even less in October if you look at the Heide Sculptures bonus). We also came here on the first day that the 5kradius was stretched out to 10k and all you could do was picnic. But this a great sport to picnic.

Geo_jas' FTF came through 10 minutes before I arrived, but he was still hanging around and chatted a bit and gave me a tip when I was fumbling around for a while. Thanks maurifree for bringing me back here.

A quick dash from home and once at gz I was lucky to find the cache in the first place I looked.
I love the art here. Last time we were here this whole area was under water.
Thanks maurifree for the cache
