No find.

Hasn't been found in a long time. Kiwi deb no longer caches so no chance of maintenance.

Looked in all places we thought it would have been but could not find it. We were not prepared to look on the low side as it would have been extremely dangerous.
 
14-Oct-12
KTCvic ventured out on a Gippsland Gallop today rounding up approximately 40 caches. What a fantastic day it was too, as we were able to soak up some rays as well as the views, as we made our way eventually to Cape Patterson.

A full log will follow to give your cache its full dues but for now this copy and paste will have to suffice.

Don't think it's here anymore? Cool spot though

Found @ 14:40 in the company of the geowife, emeraldflame and wal-len. There are certainly great views to be seen from this area. Unfortunately the contents were fairly damp as one of the container latches hadn't been secured properly.

Thanks to kiwideb for bringing us here and for the cache.

We looked high, we looked low, we looked in, we looked out, but today there was no way we could work this one out! Not too many places to hid a cache that's accessible from the track!

Thanks for the hunt anyway kiwideb .
 
02-Jan-12
Made quick work of this one, the heat was starting to get to us, but we were happy to see a bit of a larger cache!!!

Found at 1409 in the company of lochb, ClogWog, coley_babee with alansee onlooking after the "Cape Paterson 2012 New Year's party Event".
Phew! Its really getting hot now in the sun!
Quickly made the find from the lower level just as some people were coming up and took the stash some distance away so the hide wasn't compromised.
Thanks kiwideb for this cache!
 
02-Jan-12
Thank you for a great hide.

When we read about this one the boys got very excited about the possibility of finding some stuffed toys.

So we obtained a few small stuffed toys and set off on the path to discovery.

When we found the cache the boys - 6 y.o, 4 y.o & 2 y.o - were really excited and loved the swap. However, we were a bit disappointed with the contents of the caches - especially considering the information was encouraging the swap of stuffed toys.

No, you do not need to bring your huge stuffed toys - only very small ones. We went to an op-shop in Wonthaggi to get our stuffed toys for the swap. Therefore, if you are on holidays and decide to find this cache and have no stuffed toys visit an op-shop to follow the theme.

We enjoyed it and good luck.

TFTC. The container was full of wet items, the log was wet in it's zip bag, unable to use. extra log in zip bag also damp, badly needs maintance. TNLN.Smile
 
13-Nov-11
last time I walked through this area the rains had been heavy and watercourses were flowing hard.
Unfortunately the cache looks like it had been left out in it unsealed as it was wet and the logs are disintegrating.
Maintenance needed.

Great cache, a find by the doctor. This is our seventh today and the eighteenth since we came down here on holidays on Monday. In Inverloch is a great caching spot with over 30, so we will have to come back and finish them off! Attached is a photo of Weasels 'friend stick' that he found down here. It didn't help much but when I (Buckethead) touched it Weasel would explode.

We were most disappointed with this cache's contents. Found at 3.20pm - contents were wet and there was a distinct lack of stuffed toys. Managed to sign log. TNLN This cache needs some TLC and a good clean out.

Found with the Earthbound Team and Wileyclan on a massive caching day. A nice walk in the the dark under torch light and hearing the nearby waterfall was calming. The cache was quickly found. Thnaks kiwideb. TFTH...SL....TNLN
 
12-Jun-11
Today we had a bit of an assault on the area going with a team comprising of walenators, wileyclan and Earthbound Chief, which ended up being quite long and fruitful!

After a nice walk in the dark, a short seach had the cache quickly found. It is a pity that the contents are wet as the theme of the cache is a great idea.

Thanks for the cache kiwideb


Cheers Cool

Found in the company of the Walenators and Wileyclan on our tour of the local area. Cache is rather wet inside as are all the toys unfortunately. TFTC

Found by Peter & Marian at 1430hrs, after a lovely lunch at the "Cape Paterson New Year's party" organised by pprass. We with KI Bug stumbled upon the location only to find the cache out in the open with a geocacher new to the game who will be known as "Seahorse" a Scout leader from Mornington and Chloe, the cache was very wet, the log was too wet to sign. Provided a new log a plastic bag to keep it dry, dried the container and some of the items, Seahorse and Chloe will take the wet log and a couple of other items back to the camp and dry them out. We then had a long conversation about geocaching and answered their questions.
Took nothing, left a souvenir teaspoon from Rottnest Island. Thanks for the cache kiwideb.
 
03-Jan-11
We did not really "find" this one - it was presented to us!! The cache has obviously had issues with water and when we arrived some new geocachers (Seahorse and Chloe) had the whole contents laid out to dry. Tank47 had some new goodies and drying equipment and was able to get the cache back into some semblence of order with a new logbook. We took nothing, left a ladybug and signed the new log. Thanks kiwideb for this novel cache.

Spladem and I arrived almost on top of GZ to find a young couple trying to make use of the now invaded privacy. They soon headed of into the bush to continue there playtime while we found the cache. TFTC

contiuned to net cache . had to wait till some muggles left the area then found it. TFTC

Love the logs Pluckednstuffed and by the looks of it you enjoyed it 13 times over.
I understand you are new to geocaching but usually we only log a cache once.
I also noticed you have duplicated logs on a couple of other caches nearby.
If you have trouble deleting extra logs just ask for help.

This was a quick find for me today. Hooray! Container had a bit a water inside so I drained it out. I don't think it is sealing as good as it could be due to a rather large stuffy in there. Signed the new little log donated by the greynomads. TNLN Thanks kiwideb for the placement of the cache.
 
09-Aug-10
Found this one soggy wet, and plenty of water inside. The log book was awash and becoming papier mache.
Emptied it out the cache, and left a fresh log book in a sealable plastic bag and a plastic doll.
Lovely spot and well owrth the visit

A great spot, we were in Inverloch for the weekend and enjoyed searching the area for geocaches. We didn't have a stuffed toy, sorry, but our 5 year old wouldn't let us leave without swapping something, so we took the penguin puzzle and left a car. Thanks
