Having had the Flu and been home confined for two weeks I needed to get out and get some fresh air so decided to head to the Punchbowl reserve to get some caches and enjoy a walk.Logbook is full and unfortunately I did not have a log sheet to add.

Today we further explored our back yard finding caches along the way, and this was one of them.We concentrated on finding the caches that have been published since our last visit. A quick find at GZ.We found a variety of hides with varying degrees of difficulty.Many thanks to the CO for your cache placement.

The caches in the Punchbowl reserve have been on our 'to do' list on our last two caching trips to Launceston. We couldn't leave them again so made a concerted effort to tackle most of them today.After parking across the road and grabbing the new Geocaching Australia cache nearby we headed to GZ where the cache was quickly spotted. Must admit the clue didn't make sense until we got there.Thanks DaryVafder.

A day in the north of the state with SSR (and briefly budgie). We were finishing off an adventure lab that brought us to the reserve so we went looking for trolls at a couple of bridges. We found one at each bridge but this one was hatless! (I see that has been rectified now as I log late).
Thanks DaryVafder
 
A good find by the goose, he's been on form today!

Today was a bit of a different day with Budgie inviting myself and Goose to go North and find a cache on an island at low tide, the goose drove today too so i had it easy and just had to sit and keep the passenger seat warm, all up with labs, GC and GA caches I think we made 45 finds with some cracking caches along the way.

Thanks for the cache.

Hello DaryVafder, a pity we missed your company at my event in Launceston! I never saw you at the hotel either, hope all is well and thank you for the card!
 
23-Feb-23
A group of 11 of us from New Zealand have come over to cache in Tasmania, stayed at Hadley Orient Hotel in Hobart for the last 3 nights. Stayed our first night last night here Launceston. This is our 5th day here. G-2 (driver) and Pagenz and me in our rental. No idea where the others are.

This cache almost fooled Pagenz until big bad G-2 came along and spied the hint, and it was all over Rover.
 
23-Feb-23
Almost had us fooled but no there it was - so recovered, signed and replaced. t4tc

Easy, find with Tilly, 2010. The log is in good condition, but the container appears to have lost its lead. 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.

Out and about caching in the Launceston area and this was one we found.. As others have said, there is no lid. A quick find. TFTC
 
31-Dec-22
As others have said no lid was on this one today but still an easy find with the hint and a place that brings back so many memories growing up. Thanks for the cache
 
23-Dec-22
Has lost its lid. Rest is ok.
 
21-Dec-22
Accurate coordinates, the hint and the absence if muggles led to a quick find. The contents were in good condition but the lid of the container was missing. We hunted for a few minutes but did not locate the lid. Thanks DaryVafder for the cache.

Thanks for the cache daryVafder.
In the north of the state with RLD4963 and the two GeoGSP's.
It was a beautiful afternoon to be visiting this reserve, have not been here for a long time. Enjoyed exploring the area and finding caches, including this one.

I was a little early for an appointment so made a short detour to make thee search. A quick find and I was then on my way.
 
27-Nov-22
A drive to Launceston on another task in the punchbowl area, stopped by Punchbowl proper and grabbed a couple a very neat little caches in the area. Amazingly I found this one quickly, but it took me a while to remove the log from this container.

26-Nov-22
In the area with time on my hands. A thorough search, so many possibilities, eventually an easy find with assistance of hint.. thanks for another..!!
 
11-Nov-22
Saw that this had been published last night and resolved to find it early this morning. Easy find when I got there and fortunately I was first to find [FTF] at about 06:20. Surprisingly there was a muggle only meters from GZ when I got there.
TFTC.
