Sherburd Oval Blackmans Bay, Tasmania, Australia
By TasmanienGomaringen on 18-Nov-24. Waypoint GCB0GWB

TFTC! Quick find on a beautiful sunny day with a welcome slight breeze! We cached up Summerleas direction, then came down to get one at Kingston Beach that had been archived and republished, and now finally got a chance to get this one, which has been green in a sea of yellow for a while. Dencoxclan has an interest in cricket ovals because hes in that field of work. So it was interesting to discover this one! Thank you!

The hint and gps is accurate!

Thanks for your first cache TasmanienGomaringen.I dropped by this morning and made a quick find. I have spent a bit of time at this picturesque oval, watching both cricket and soccer.Cheers,EPs ??

We had an unexpected trip south today and as we were staying nearby, we took the opportunity to look for this cache, which was published today. As we parked our car, we saw what we thought was the hide - locating the hide was the easy part. We had to negotiate the steep and slippery (from dried leaves, not water) bank to get to GZ and sign the logbook. The cache and contents were in good condition. Congratulations RebornCyclist on your FTF - sometimes traffic problems have a silver lining. Thanks TasmanienGomaringen for the cache.

Living so close, but I didnt see the publication until I was in Kingston. But then an accident on the Outlet turned the estimated commute to over an hour, so I turned around to work from home - and grab the FTF on the way.Accurate coords.Thanks
