Quick easy find here today

Another good cache on our way to Douglas River to camp for a couple of nights.Didn't have time for a beach walk but apparently there are good shells on this beach.Thanks for the cache whitewebbs.

What a lovely little spot to stop at as we slowly meander SouthTFTC

Thanks to the generous hint this was a very quick find and sign TFTC

Awesome thanks. Bring a pencil!

Really cool cache

Nous poursuivons notre road trip en Australie : aujourd'hui nous irons de Bicheno Hobart et jaunirons quelques points sur la carte. Log en team Mado.TFTC trouve sans souci.

Suite de notre priple en Australie : de Bicheno Hobart . On logue en team Mado. Merci pour la cache. Bien en place.

A quick find whilst heading home after a weekend away camping, caching, and exploring areas that we haven't been to. A good excuse to stop and stretch the legs, and a quick find. TFTC!Cheers,The Hancock Clan

On our way back to Swansea we decided to stop by Kelvedon Beach so Team M could wet a line. Whilst he was busy, I made a quick find. SL TFTC whitewebbs.

Quick easy find. Thanks.

Clever!

Thanks

Lovely spot.tftc

After a couple of dnfs we thought we had better check on cache as not a hard find. It was not near the rock as per hint but found near another rock. The cache had been moved so no wonder it was hard to spot. Please replace cache where you find it please.

Searched & was determined to log a smiley but it was elusive! Sad face.

After a night at the 'Mayfield Bay Camp', I went to collect some caches.The cache GZ led me to a rock, which was as per the hint.However a complete search around the rock yielded no cache.

Tftc

The water's looking blue today

Time for the East Coast, Bicheno and above (staying at St. Helens for the night)This one was 1st Cab off the Rank. The cache wasn't next to the dark rock but to the one on the right, (looking west). SL back at the GeoMobile at 08:17 on Melbourne Cup Day 2023.The cache and contents are fine and dry TFTC whitewebbs

Found with TB TM0HXR from NZ. Nice lunch spot near beach, looking across bay to Frecynet. Where I picked TB up at, on my Tassie travels.

TM0HXR travel bug, visiting Tasmania from New Zealand. Looking across the Bay to Frecynet. TB retrieved from Coles Bay.

Hello whitewebbs thank you for the cacheI was hoping to take MrsD for a drive to the Triabunna fish van but she wasn't interested, so I continued my trip a bit further.This was an easy find in a lovely place.Found on Sunday, 15 October 2023 at 1011**TFTC**

Found while on our way to bicheno tftc

Found on our Tassie holiday. Great spot to pullover for a rest and a cache. All is well with the hide. TFTC.

Quick cache find with BraydsSA as we travel along the East coast. TFTC SL

A quick find with Sparrow as we explore this side of Tassie. X marks the spot. SL & TFTC.

Thankfully a nice easy find as it's time to head for home. Good day or caching. Always nice along the East coast. Thanks for the cache whitewebbs

Noice spot, certainly worth to bring your picnic basket along! Easy find. Thanks

Thanks

Found it

TFTC

A trip up and back to Swansea today on another mission and called by and found some great new caches in the area.

Found this cache on the way back from Swansea, and as Geo Kid E said, this fits in well here

TFTC

This was the last cache of the day as I made my way home after a overnight camping stay at Freycinet. I think this is the first time I have ever stopped here, having done hundreds of trips up the east coast. Another gorgeous picnic spot, made most pleasant today by the fantastic weather. Made a quick find of a little cache among big cousins. Thanks for encouraging me to stop whitewebbs.

On my way to spend a few days in "the big smoke" Hobart I arrived at a completely muggle free area and once the correct rock was identified a quick find was made.

Nicely hidden I guess it also depends on your definition of dark rock lol

This was fun ! There were muggles having a cuppa right at GZ. But hey, what the hell. We followed the phone around in front of their car. Mr Tourist from Perth WA came over "for a chat". Told him I was just following my GPS and looking for a geocache. Oh, our kids have done that in Bali and Cambodia and other places.So he helped look. Eventually we found the correct rock, found log in good nick and room to sign. Thanks whitewebbs for providing a bright interaction with some foreigners from the west.

Why have I never stopped here before? Too busy being in a rush, I guess. Thanks for the reason - nice hide.

It's a weather-perfect Autumn day here on the East Coast.

There are so many spots to visit that require turning off the road, but I never have, despite driving by many times over the years, - but always going somewhere else. So, making amends and today I'm just "going caching", and I will stop, and turn-off wherever I want!

Thanks whitewebbs, for the cache and the adventure.
Cheers, EPs.

This cache was quickly spotted but it took a while to deal with as a National Parks ute pulled in behind us and the driver spent ages putting on all his protective gear before heading off with his whipper snipper to clear some of the scrub. Luckily he was heading towards the beach and not in our direction. Thanks Whitewebbs.

Love the effort! Tftc. High and dry in this clever cover.

Quick easy park and grab, TFTC

Getting a few smilies with sammiiej today. Tftc

We had a very busy long weekend around St Helens with the daughter and grandchildren doing some orienteering. We missed this one coming up, (the grandchildren were hungry and wanted to get to the Pondering Frog for some lunch and an ice cream) but we knew it would be easier to pull over on our way home! Only a couple of cars here who didn’t seem to take any notice of us. A quick find and the grandchildren admired the container.

Signed and placed where we found it!

After spending a few days in Orford doing the TTSS caches it was time to head back to Launceston.
We saw this cache was along the way so this morning we stopped and grabbed it.
Good co-ords lead us straight to the cache and an easy find.
TFTC

Kelvedon Beach was on our list of places to stop on the drive today and happily saw this cache was here. Parked in the other lot and walked down on this windy day. TFTC!

Out n about with m4yb grabbing a few caches.
First cache today after leaving Swansea, very different day today.
Thanks for the hide & whitewebbs

Megawat60 and I are on the tail end of The Tassie Tour and headed south. A quick find here. TFTC!

Driving back down to Hobart with TrinityNZ and Net61 for company.Great to have so many stops for geocaching .Trinity soon found this one!

Nice quick stop on our way back to Hobart.

A quick find as we continue our trip down the highway although as usual I went to the wrong rock while BlueBM zoned straight onto the correct one. He's such a smartypants sometimes grrrrr. Thanks for the cache.

I’m in Tasmania on a geocaching tour for a week some some other keen New Zealander geocachers. We started in Hobart, travelled up to Launceston, and today we are making our way back down to Hobart, heading across the island and towards the east coast. I’m travelling today with Net61 and Supernanny.

We stopped here after visiting Swansea. Compared to the other two, I’m not the best cache finder, but I did manage to find this one. I like this type of cache.

Thanks for the cache

Our second and final stop on our early morning trip from Orford to home (so that Mrs y'stassie could get to embroidery) to look for this cache. The long grass made us a little apprehensive searching for this one - our walking poles provide the distance we needed. Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks whitewebbs for the cache.

Happy Australia Day... ***"Celebrate 7700th milestone"***

# **2TF** #

Out and about caching to the East Coast then turn to Lake Leake then drive to Campbell Town/Ross for Adlab and caches..

After muilt FTF claim at Triabunna, on heading to some caches on way to swansea..
Easy spot and sign the log with good dry..

TFTC

Second cache of the day and 2nd {*FTF*} so it looks like our luck was in so after a quick find on what was turning into a warm day we turned South to cache our way home.

Myself and Goose started the day a bit early so we could have a chance at two new FTF chances and we headed up th east coast and back again to be at an event out the back of the domain.

Thanks for the cache.

Found on 21/01/2023 thanks to whitewebbs for placing this cache for me to find.

After the Pontypool cache, we continued up here to a lovely part of the coast. We missed the turn off as my phone was lagging and dud a U-turn along at the farm entrance.
We stopped in the shade of a tree and got out for a look and soon spotted the sigs of a cache hide. Another blank log sheet, {*FTF*} with SSR at 9.53am.
This was as far north as we were heading so we turned left and headed back south with plenty of stops.
Thanks whitewebbs
