21238During our great trip around the world we arrived in Australia after visiting Canada, US, and some places in the Caribean Sea and Central America as well as Fiji. Besides lots of sightseeing, we can't do without caching, of course. That's why we also passed by this place, searched for the cache, found it and successfully signed the logbook.Thank you for hiding and maintaining the cache. Only thanks to dedicated owners is this beautiful game possible.Wir danken alle Cache-Ownern fr ihren Einsatz, denn ohne die Gemeinschaft ist dieses tolle weltweite Hobby nicht zu realisieren.

We finished our Cave tour and noticed this one near by. However the ranger was locking the gate. So Mr Shadow wasnt going to leave unless he found it. So he went under the gate and followed the GPS to GZ. The co ordinance were 4m out. Cache found, signed and returned. Now on our way to Launceston for the night. TFTC

Four of us couldn't find it. The bbq has been taped off but you can still sneak in. GPS was way random. Hint was no use.
 
05-Aug-23
We were visiting the Magic Cave with muggle friends and had some time to spare before our tour started.
Luckily our male muggle friend is an excellent cache finder! I was off in another direction when he announced that he'd found it.
Thanks for the cache in this great area, Cached.
PS: we really enjoyed the cave tour.

Today was a day for exploring some of the Tasmanian caves. I haven't been able to go caving with my outdoor club for a while due to the covid outbreak so I was desperate to go underground again. But once I arrived at the Mole Creek caves visitors office I couldn't decide which tour to go on, so I did all 3 trips!
3 and a half hours later I could find some caches.
It was only after looking at my GPS did I realise I should have found this before the tours. As I had finished in the King Solomans cave 10km away I had to return back here to find this. By the time I got back the park was closed so no one was around to see me make the quick find.
Thanks for the cache.

Found on a visit to Tasmania and this beautiful area. Visited the nearby King Solomon Cave which is spectacular and deserves a visit. Didn't have time to do the Marakoopa caves. TFTC

No such luck for me here today. I had convinced my muggle friends to hang out for a second while I grabbed this. It was almost 15 minutes and three sets of eyes later that I decided it was enough.
5 minutes up the road, muggle C found a leech on her leg!!

After visiting the cave nearby TaurusSix and I headed to get this cache. We were delayed by a nice songbird in a nearby tree, but managed to tear ourselves away to make the find.

The cave is still shut to COVID19 which made the cache and nice and easy find with no one around to disturb me, great to pick up this oldie.

Today with the lifting to stage 2 of COVID19 restrictions almost felt like a free person again in a sense, and with geocaching you don’t seem to come across many people so this afternoon I headed out to mole creek area to collect some new caches around the area as well as pick up 2 FTFs along the way.
Total of 21 finds and 1 DNF for the afternoon.
Thanks for the cache.

T-Tech and I are down from Brisbane for a meandering holiday around Tasmania. We flew to Melbourne where we picked up the campervan and spent a day caching there, then took Spirit of Tasmania I to Devonport. Tick that one off the bucket list!

We spent yesterday at Cradle Mountain and last night at Gowrie Park. Today we are travelling via Mole Creek Caves and Deloraine to Bracknell. I was very keen to see the caves here too and enjoyed the guided tour. On my walk back to the first car park, I detoured to collect this cache. It was a quick find in the first spot I looked. TFTC, Cached.

Heading up around the Mole’s Creek/Devonport area for a few reasons but mainly to head for a CITO event tomorrow and an event on Tuesday. Today we were zigzagging around grabbing caches that have appeared since our last visit to the area. We have experienced a mixture of spring weather, leaving Hobart in full sun and no breeze and slowly the wind started to get up, went through hail, rain and cooler temperatures then the sun came out again and the temperature rose.
One last cache to go for the day before heading for our accommodation for the night! All in good order!

Geo-partner and I are on a two week camping trip from Melbourne. We plan to go anticlockwise around Tassie and find as many caches as we can, and experience as much as we can!

We did both the Underground River and the King Solomon cave. Reception was too spotty at the KS Cave to get a reading on the cache down there so we swooped back here to grab this one! What a lovely spot! Thanks for this find!

Find #111 for us!

We did the last cave tour yesterday and realised that night we missed finding the cache.
Returned quickly this morning and made a quick find and sign before heading to King Solomon's Cave.

On a quick holiday to Tassie. This is the first holiday with my Muggle Fisher Husband without kids. Day 1 at the Salamanca Market Day 2 Tahune Air walk and Mt Wellington Day 3 drive to Strahan Day 4 Gordon River Cruise Day 5 drive to Launceston We thought we would do the cave tour and see the glow worms. Well worth the windy road trip. Day 6 explore Launceston then Fly home To Geelong. My Muggle Fisher Hubby promised I could find a few Caches along the way. But it wasn't allowed to take over the whole day as it was his holiday too. TFTC

#14471. Day 17 of our 3 week holiday in Tasmania. We only found two caches today as we were playing tourists today. Still based near the lovely Mole Creek. Went to visit one of the nearby caves this morning and then on to Trowunna Wildlife Park early afternoon before strolling around the lovely farm we are staying at.

We were a little early for our cave tour so enjoyed the peace and quiet and strolled to GZ for an easy find. A lovely place and we enjoyed the cave tour.

Thanks Cached

Day eighteen of our holiday in Tassie. Bettyboo3747 and I are still in Mole Creek.
We started the day with a cave tour, then lunch in Mole Creek. The afternoon was spent in the Trowunna Wildlife Park, and walking around the farm where we are staying.
So not a lot of caches were done.
We arrived a bit early at the cave office, so we walked through the picnic area to this cache. It was just as well as when we got out of the cave the picnic area was already being used.
Thanks, Robmc.
