Logs
We checked this cache this morning on our way to Launceston and found it to be missing again. We have replaced this cache three times already in the short time since we adopted it and in that time, there has been a marked increase in the rubbish (including animal waste) that the area is no longer pleasant to visit. If the area gets cleaned up we may consider placing another cache there (if another cacher has not used the spot) but at this stage, we are regretfully arching the cache.
Had a decent look but very long grass, loads of rubbish and used needles laying around in the grass - so we took the kids away. It’s a shame, the area could definitely use a tidy up.
Endeavouring to find a few park and grab caches as I wend my way home, after having a few very relaxing days R&R with muggle friends in Devonport. Wandered around here for a while - can’t say that poking around amongst heaps of rubbish is my favourite sort of caching, so gave up in the end. ️ The information boards are lovely but the rubbish is not really a great advertisement for Deloraine. Will have to try again another day.
We should have organised a CITO here! It certainly needs one. TFTC robtas (adopted by 2y'stassies)
Well, that didn't last long. Put another temporary cache in place in slightly different position. Hence, the coordinates have been updated. See if this will last until we can put something more substantial.

Unfortunately I think this cache has been moved. The large rock has been tipped going from the dead grass the rock has been moved and the cache with it. We looked at Cnsmith100 photo and the navigation we believe we were in the correct area.
Thanks for taking us to the is scenic location

Found it but didn’t have anything to write with so we couldn’t record it on the log. TFTC
We noticed that LAURISTON AG logged a find on this cache this morning but stated that they did not sign the logbook. We remined you that a GroundSpeak non-negotiable condition for logging any physical geocache is that you first sign the logbook. It is your responsibility to have a pen or pencil with you. CO's often include a pen in the cache but that is a courtesy, not a requirement for placing a cache.
We will not delete LAURISTON AG's log on this occasion but will do so without warning if any other of our caches are logged by any cacher without signing the logbook.

Thought I would have to try again when the grass had been mowed but looked a little harder and found what we wanted. SL TFTC
Out and about for our second day on the road in Tassie. We woke up to rain and fog, so put on the coat and decided if in caches were to be found today, I'd have to suck it up. Stopped off and made some great find in some nice areas, despite the weather.
Heading out of town and grabbing a few along the way. There was plenty of room to pull over in the motorhome, so this was a quick park and grab, despite looking under the wrong hint.
Thanks 2y'stassies for placing the cache and doing the maintenance, so we can enjoy the find.

Great sign with heaps of information! Located the cache and signed the log, TNLN thanks.
The cache was found in the last place we looked, which as usual was not the first place we looked. Thanks for placing a fun cache guys. We do love your work. We signed the logbook. Of course we did that is way we play this game. Cache in pretty good condition for the cache age.

Due to COVID restrictions the event is now postponed to early October 2021. Check out the event page and our website for new details. We would love to see you at this four day event. Mega event sponsored by Wattle Range Council, Geocaching.com and many other supporters. Lots of caches to find with two classic geo art trails including the famous animated bottle and glass.

Not the first one . Another mission accomplished! Enroute to Launceston then Jerusalem Walls TFTC
Gosh turning in was scary! Tasmanians love their 110km roads! The art was great to see and enjoyed this little pit stop. Quick find. Tftc
Couldn't find this one I may have been looking in wrong spot, marking as. DNF so I remember to come back to it

Met some more experienced members (tascoders) who helped with ideas and advice on our new hobby. #Geocachingrocks

A beautiful spot, just a shame about all the rubbish people throw out here. TFTC
Thanks for the cache robtas.
Up north for a few days with RLD4963 and the GeoGSP. Today we were heading back home, but we had time to grab a few caches after having an early lunch in Latrobe. Another we have driven past multiple times over the past couple of years. Today we had made sure we had time to grab a few of the ones we regularly pass - this was a nice quick find at GZ.

Found. Photo for evidence, it pretty bad condition. Not sure why but it was just sitting out in the middle of GZ but I’ve tucked it away as close to co-ordinations as possible.
Thanks for the cache robtas.
A nice quick find, cache is in good order, no sign of snails, dirt, or wet logbook, so maybe the Needs Maintenance log (by a cacher with no finds) was put up in error. Maybe they didn't even find the correct container?
Out on a mostly GA caching adventure with AlbyDangles; about 28 finds all up, Breona to Westbury, via Deloraine. As usual, a great day out in excellent company.
Cheers,

Hello robtas thank you for the cahce
EeePees and I had a caching trip along the Lake HWY and came into Deloraine to have lunch before starting back home.
This was one of the caches we found after having lunch and before heading home.
A very easy find in a likely spot.

Indeed a lot of information on this point, but however there was no info about the cache, it was easy to vind. TFTC
Suscoe was out in this area enjoying a day of visiting various attractions.
There was plenty of sunshine and a gentle breeze.
We were glad we came out this way with a terrific wildlife park, some brilliant caves and beautiful countryside.
Thanks to robtas for this hide.
All good here today.

First find of the day after 3 DNF'S but log was full so added a paper scrap with Weebindi TFTC
Being up North was planned for 7 months so grabbing this one after a failed attempt was a must.
The huge pine trees have been removed since and the cache was quickly found

Found this one today and there is no trackable in the cache. Was a funny find as map/GPS was showing cache on the edge of the dam on private property all sorted. TFTC from the inspectorrexteam.
20/12/19 visiting from QLD. Day trip today to see some of Tassie’s finest areas. Quick stop on the way into town. TFTC
Driving back from Cradle Mountain with a stopover at the cheese factory with StephLego, WillPunkey and Scoob with Thabks for placing
Such and awesome spot, love it. Would never have stopped here if it wasn't to find a geo. Thanks for bringing us here TFTC
Me thinks that at one time there was a nice stand of trees here to give some shelter. TFTC. Kutgw
Took the opportunity to find this cache, as I was heading to the lakes for a few days.
Found this cache in good time, thanks to the hint and good coordinates. The cache is in relatively good condition, considering it has been hidden for over ten years now. Please note: the cache found should be small, not regular, in terms of size. Also: the trackable listed is NOT in the cache. Other then that, the cache is pretty good.
