We found this but could not sign as the log book is soaked. As previously mentioned the cache is no longer attached to the cable tie. It was lovely to find and explore another part of Launceston. TFTC

Just as we arrived at GZ, so did a couple of Council employees, so we wandered down to a palm tree, and came back. Quickly located thanks to previous activity advice. Carried on back up the High St for a coffee break at LeCafe. TFTC CJ.

Luckily Id read Mr EeePees log before looking for this one. I did see the old cable tie first so knew the cache wouldnt be far from it. TFTC

Thanks for the cache CJI eventually found this cache after initially walking away empty handed - and getting quite wet during a long search.There's no cable tie, cache is at ground level about 8 metres from GZ which for me today was in the carpark.As per a previous log, look for a big Found - after walking parkrun with my Bro then family brunch - during a quick overnighter from Hobart with pharmaAl to visit family.Cheers,EPs

A weird trip to Launceston today. Had a job to do for work which took 30 minutes and then it was caching and op shopping. The caching was poor. The op shopping was great. The caching ended up with 4 dnfs and 6 finds, and I am pretty sure those 4 are gone. Tftc
